Chris Lempesis is back in the basement Packer room with another Tuesday night edition of Emptying The Bag, cracking open a beer and ripping through a mountain of listener mail after Green Bay’s 40–40 tie with Dallas.
He kicks things off with a trip down memory lane, revisiting the infamous disaster that was the Packers’ 2004 draft third round (BJ Sander, anyone?). From there, it’s all about your questions and comments — and Packers therapy.
Topics covered include:
Jordan Love proving once again he’s the guy with four clutch scoring drives
Jerry Jones’ “mafia refs” and the non-existent holding calls on Micah Parsons
Why Matt LaFleur’s ultra-conservative play calling in OT felt like waving the white flag
The ongoing Rich Bisaccia/Special Teams circus (is it finally time for change?)
Defensive breakdowns, Nate Hobbs struggles, and Edgerrin Cooper’s rough night
Listener rants on everything from Twitter/X to BlueSky to Facebook falsehoods
There’s history, humor, beer reviews, and plenty of catharsis for Packers Nation. Whether you’re venting about the tie, laughing at fake Facebook posts about Jordan Love starting a dog sanctuary, or debating if LaFleur has “it” as a head coach, this episode is your mailbag home.
Grab a drink, strap in, and reset the vibes as the Pack heads into the bye before a showdown with Cincinnati.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
