Also every Monday Night from 6 PM to 7 PM they will be an hour show where they will interview players and coaching staff members that will be hosted by Denis Puska who's also the Teams Media Relations Head. This show will mostly be at the ESPN 1440 Studios, but on some nights they will head out to Restaurants as fans can view the show and even call in and ask questions.

In addition to the Michigan Warriors, Other opponents that week will be the Fresno Monsters, Pt. Huron Fighting Falcons and the St. Louis Bandits before the team's home opener on September 24 against the Texas Tornado.
