25 Whistles with Bobby Bones (A Football Podcast)

Snowmageddon hit and the guys have stories. Abby calls in with her Broncos game adventure—tickets, a VIP tailgate, surviving the cold, and a surprise Sean Payton connection—while Kevin and Bobby deal with power outages, which causes Kevin to use his friend's house as a hotel, and Bobby to watch the games on his phone while charging it off his electric car. Then they hit the lighter sports swirl: Seahawks-Rams, Super Bow...

This episode of 25 Whistles has a classic “Around the Room” debate that turns into a full-on self-scout: what’s your best physical trait, and can you defend it?

Plus, former NFL center Mitch Morse joins us to talk retiremen...

Bobby takes it back to childhood with rollerblading stories that somehow escalate in the exact way you’d expect—equal parts nostalgic and ridiculous. Plus, after CJ Stroud's 4 interception game on Sunday, is he really just Dak Prescott in a Texans uniform? And Eddie admits his first kiss was to a girl who looked like Joe Montana - and that is why he wanted her to be his first kiss. Some of the guys judge, some don't.

Eddie thinks Bobby’s been keeping something from him — and he’s not thrilled about it — so they clear it up on the air, and Bobby explains why he thinks Eddie misunderstood.

They break down what’s being claimed, what (if anything) lines up, and whe...

The holidays are over, and the guys are back! Bobby wastes no time: he’s got a very specific airport Chinese food rule that turns into a full-on debate (including the “bring it in Tupperware vs. buy it inside” question) after someone on his flight decided to bring it on the plane. Then it’s a round of health updates—Bobby’s ankle rehab is limiting everything, Kevin’s shoulder situation is n...
