    Chicago Bears: What's going on at Halas Hall?

    Dan Bernstein: "The Bears have found a way to make something more difficult than it needs to be." 0:00 Chicago Bears 20:25 MLB 26:45 NBA 48:52 PCA The vibes on the North Side are… not great. 😬 The Chicago Cubs are in a tailspin after a brutal 5-game losing skid, capped off by getting swept at home by the Milwaukee Brewers. What’s going wrong, and how concerned should fans be right now? Meanwhile, on the South Side, the White Sox—yes, those White Sox—are suddenly… kind of interesting? With expectations low, they’re starting to give fans a reason to tune back in. Are they turning a corner, or is this just a temporary spark? Plus, we have to talk hoops. The NBA Western Conference Finals are delivering some of the best basketball we’ve seen in years. Insane shot-making, elite matchups, and high drama—this series has everything. And finally, a closer look at Pete Crow-Armstrong. The young Cubs outfielder clearly has the talent, but he looks like he might be pressing right now. Does he just need a day off to reset, or is there something deeper going on mentally? All that and more—let’s get into it. 👇 Dan Bernstein Unfiltered drops Monday-Friday 11am CT Make sure to subscribe to... ✅ Dan Bernstein Unfiltered ✅ Forward Progress - A Chicago Bears Podcast 🏈 ✅ Organization Win Championships: A Chicago Bulls Podcast 🏀 ✅ Off The Ivy: A Chicago Cubs Podcast ⚾️ All links to YouTube, Apple, Spotify and more available on 312Sports.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
