Ugh. You said you were over him, but his hoodie is stealing your rotation. It's time. Grab your phone, snap a few pics, and sell it on Depop, listed in minutes, with no selling fees. And just like that, a guy 500 miles away just paid full price for your closure. And right on cue, Nope. But I've got tonight's dinner paid for. Start selling on Depop, where taste recognizes taste. List now with no selling fees. Payment processing fees and boosting fees still apply. See website for details. bears fans this is take the north what's the reason duck it's here with your hosts all these guys dan weederer the whole key to sustaining success in this league is to have a quarterback play that is top tier and can consistently push you down those roads and mark grody we're allowed to at this point bears fans are allowed to right now dream big and predict what you want out of the season we're going to take the north and never give it back
Hello again, everybody, and welcome into the Take the North podcast, along with Dan Wiederer of The Athletic. I am Mark Grody of 104.3 The Score. Danny boy, how are you today? Really good. I'm really good. The offseason's chugging along. We're starting to accelerate. We got a lot to dig into. We're here. We're in March now, Mark, and NFL March Madness begins. Let's rock. Let's do it. And as you can see on our screen right now, or if you are watching on YouTube or on video, wherever you might take in this podcast, we are very excited to be joined by the wonderful Cassie Carlson of Fox 32 sports anchor and bears reporter over there at Fox 32, right across the street from the score. It's a great job exchange that goes on.
She's also the host of the off season and she was on the score recently hosting a morning show. What's going on, Cassie? How are you? Oh, I'm great. I think I have the post morning show and post combine cold going. So it's the compilation of everything going on, which means it's a busy time of the year, which is good because over the last three weeks since the Super Bowl ended till the combine like, all right, so it's been how many how many weeks since football ended like we need it back and it's back. Cassie, I think we're going to start with that morning show appearance because you are now like in the team photo of people that has had to experience what that is. You know, being ready to be on the air at 530 in the morning requires a different alarm than you're used to setting.
I want you to take me and Grody and the rest of our audience into the first time trying to prep yourself for 530 on air at 670 the score, 104.3 the score. Yeah, it's different. So it reminds me of every time I do the morning show here at Fox too, because unlike my job where it's like you come in at the start of the day at 10 o'clock or two o'clock and you work all day and then you go on air at night, the morning show is you wake up, you go on air and then you do like all your work after. So it's so flip-flopped. But my alarm went off at 3.30 in the morning. Didn't sleep very well because obviously I was a little worried that the alarm wouldn't go off. Um, and then I had no coffee, which is unlike me until I actually got to the score.
Um, and usually like in my typical morning routine, I'm a very routine person. I have two cups of coffee before I do anything to start the day. And so, um, it was pure adrenaline, but it was fun. All the prep work is done the night before, which is interesting too. I was up watching the Olympics because David Haw was like, be ready to talk about the Olympics. And I'm like, okay, figure skating noted. And luckily there was Max Crosby having Caleb Williams on his podcast, which in my mind, it's like perfect. Four hours is going to be fly by. If we can talk about an hour and eight minutes of those two talking together and sort of decipher all the subliminal messaging that we think went on and everything that Caleb Williams said.
So it was really fun. And four and a half hours flies by. I didn't stand up the entire time either, which was very impressive to Haw.
