Aaron Rodgers may come to the Chicago Bears, and should Caleb Williams address Seth Wickersham's book?
(Image via Getty: Caleb Williams) The whole purpose of an Ayahuasca Retreat is to heal past traumas and open your mind, that's what the Healthline says. And that is exactly what Aaron Rodgers believes, loves, and follows. Otherwise, why would the Ayahuasca Retreat lover be interested in the Chicago Bears? Yes, heard it right. It's not the longstanding Pittsburgh Steelers that the darkness retreat lover loves. It's the Chicago Bears! Where the QBs go to die. That's what ESPN's Seth Wickersham's book says. In exact words, Carl Williams told Wickersham, 'Chicago is the place quarterbacks go to die.' So, now, two topics are merging here. One, Aaron Rodgers may come to the Chicago Bears, and should Caleb Williams address Seth Wickersham's book? One by one. Let's unravel! For the second one, let's throwback to Caleb Williams' interview with the NFL Network's Good Morning Football host, Kyle Brandt. Maybe that would help shed some light on what Caleb Williams thinks about public opinions. Seth Wickersham Details Caleb Williams Trying to Avoid Chicago Bears Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams thinks applying nail paint makes him incredibly cool and original In November 2024, Kyle Brandt noticed Caleb Williams wearing nail paints! And he interviewed him about the same, 'Caleb, it's come to this, I've got to ask. You paint your fingernails?' Caleb responds, 'Yep.' Brandt says, 'It's unique for those who don't know. Why do you do that?' Caleb explains, 'My mom, she's done nails for, I don't know how many years. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Her body cannot endure this level of pain; please help her. Donate For Health Learn More Undo But ever since I was young, she's been doing nails. So, one day, just kind of at the nail salon, I was like, you know, forget it, I'm just gonna try it, and then - that was in high school. And now, I've been doing it all through college, and so, now, it's been six or seven years.' Caleb continues, 'There's been times when I've thrown certain motivation on it. There's been times when I've thrown awareness on my nails for different causes and things like that. You know, I think it's unique to myself, to me. I think it's incredibly cool. It makes you original.' Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams says he doesn't care what other people have to say Brandt went for it, 'The online reaction to it - ranges from, everything from amused to ignorance, to actually hateful. What do you make of all that?' Williams answers, 'I think everybody has their own opinions. I came to a certain point where I kinda treated like my career - I don't really care what people have to say about it. Especially, from people that I wouldn't ask for advice from. You know, it's me, how I am. And, it's unique to me.' Kyle Brandt participates in nail painting with Caleb Williams, and Williams is very happy about it Brandt participates in it, 'I want you to know how cool it is, how original you are. You motivated me to do something that I've never done before. I walked into a nail salon, and I got my first manicure. What do you think?' Caleb smiles his widest smile and shows off his nail-painted fingers, too! And the Chicago Bears QB says, 'I got mine, too.' Brandt chuckles and says, 'Pretty cool, yeah! I got orange and blue. You dig it?' Caleb says, 'It's a cool thing. ' Caleb Williams has always wanted to be with Chicago Bears Someone as progressive and adaptive as Caleb Williams, who thinks nail paints are a homage to his mother, a personal expression, and says, "You gotta keep your hands fresh - this is where all the gold comes from." Why would he bother thinking about the past? Why would he think about something that doesn't stand true now? Why would he go open the books that have been closed for like forever now? No wonder! One X user aptly wrote, 'The most important part is being left out. The part where he said he wanted to be a bear. The reservations were all past tense. He's been a great teammate. He's repped this team well in public. That's all that matters. It's such a non story. Please move on.' Is former New York Jets QB Aaron Rodgers going to play for the Chicago Bears? On May 23, Gene Chamberlain from Sports Illustrated reported that in a Q&A in Austin, Texas, on Friday, Aaron Rodgers was asked by a young fan if he would ever sign with the Bears. Aaron Rodgers replied, 'No. But I believe there's a team that might play in Chicago for a road trip, I don't know.'

Madhuri Dixit's Husband Dr Nene Tells Ranveer Allahbadia 'Bhaang Is No Big Deal': 'In India, There's Hypocrisy'
Dr. Shriram Nene, Madhuri Dixit's husband, discussed Ayahuasca, LSD, and cannabis on YouTube with Ranveer Allahbadia. Dr. Shriram Nene, husband of actor Madhuri Dixit, runs a YouTube channel where he talks about health and lifestyle. Sometimes, his wife Madhuri and their sons Arin and Ryan also appear in the videos. A few months ago, he invited YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia for a conversation about the use of certain substances, both for medicine and recreation. They started by discussing Ayahuasca, a hallucinogenic drink from South America and also touched on cannabis, which is still illegal in India. He said, 'The first question you asked me was about Ayahuasca, and I remember thinking, 'Wow, this guy is really deep into meditation, taking trips'. The interesting part is, I have so many friends who are artistes, who are thinkers… Steve Jobs said it. He said, 'The advantage between me and Microsoft is that I used to drop LSD.' Jobs was such a free thinker that he could almost see the future. The guy wasn't a coder; he was a master marketer." Dr. Shriram Nene said that views on some drugs have changed over time. He explained that LSD, once made for soldiers, may now help with issues like depression. 'So, here's the interesting part. We think we know a lot about medicine, right? And we're learning that some things which they thought were harmful, aren't. Like LSD was originally formulated to be used on soldiers, to make them war machines. But what we're finding now is that it may be beneficial for depression, there may be benefits for other things. Cannabis used to be a Schedule 1 drug; we would (prescribe) it to our cancer patients, because it would really help with their appetites after chemo, and also help with their nausea. Also in patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and other things, we did it. Now, what they've done in the US is that they've legalised it. They've controlled it. My fear is that people using it may get into trouble, because according to some surveys, people are using cannabis more than alcohol in some cases." Dr. Nene said people are too scared of things like cannabis and also made it clear that he and Ranveer Allahbadia were not supporting drug use. 'I don't fear it, because I've prescribed it to my patients (in the US). But the NCB is on a course to wipe out all this stuff. You go to Punjab, weed grows on the side of the road… There may be a medicinal use of this, there may be a social use of this. But in an unrestricted, unsupervised, uneducated context… In no way are you and I advocating that stuff. But we're not criticising, at the same time. In India, there's a bit of hypocrisy, because ascetics have used it for a really long time. And I would say that with 'bhaang' or cannabis, it's not that big of a deal. But when you move to opium or cocaine, the addictivity of it is incredible, and that isn't something that we can even debate," he said. First Published: April 22, 2025, 15:24 IST

Madhuri Dixit's husband Dr Nene says India is hypocritical about marijuana, recalls prescribing cannabis to cancer patients in US: ‘Not a big deal'
Actor Madhuri Dixit's husband, Dr Shriram Nene, operates a YouTube channel where he conducts conversations around health and lifestyle. He also involves Madhuri and their two sons, Arin and Ryan, in some of his videos. Some months ago, he hosted YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia on his channel, where they discussed drugs (used both medically and recreationally) and their impact. The use of cannabis and its various forms is legally prohibited in India. He began the conversation by bringing up Ayahuasca, a hallucinogen that originates in South America. Addressing Ranveer, he said, 'The first question you asked me was about Ayahuasca, and I remember thinking, 'Wow, this guy is really deep into meditation, taking trips'. The interesting part is, I have so many friends who are artistes, who are thinkers… Steve Jobs said it. He said, 'The advantage between me and Microsoft is that I used to drop LSD.' Jobs was such a free thinker that he could almost see the future. The guy wasn't a coder; he was a master marketer.' He also said that India takes a hypocritical stance on substances such as marijuana, because ascetics have been using it for years.

Like LSD was originally formulated to be used on soldiers, to make them war machines. But what we're finding now is that it may be beneficial for depression, there may be benefits for other things.

He wondered why there is 'such an abject fear of this', but made it clear that neither he nor Ranveer are endorsing substance abuse. He continued, 'I don't fear it, because I've prescribed it to my patients (in the US). But the NCB is on a course to wipe out all this stuff. You go to Punjab, weed grows on the side of the road… There may be a medicinal use of this, there may be a social use of this.
