Recorded: April 24th 2025, The Boys are back with a loaded episode full of laughs, chaos, and an all-time sit down with Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs. In our intro this week, we are joined by two Michigan students who are interning with the boys for the week. We also are launching our Internship Program so keep an eye out on our socials for more details. The guys also break down Dave Portnoy’s viral video involving his bar, entering the news breaking game with the George Kittle news and True Classic’s Gooner-X of the Month. Josh Jacobs hops on the bus for one of the realest convos we’ve had. He opens up about growing up homeless and his journey from overlooked high school kid to first-round NFL draft pick. Jacobs then gets into what it was like grinding at Alabama while not being “the guy” with a stacked running back room with Najee Harris and Damien Harris. He talks about learning under Nick Saban, his bond with Jalen Hurts, and how his home-state schools never even offered him. We get into his time with the Raiders, playing under Jon Gruden, the painful decision to leave Vegas including a WILD story of a Raiders exec trying to expose him. Josh then gets into the transition to Green Bay and what to expect from the Packers this season. From draft day moments and his first big purchase to Antonio Brown stories and Maxx Crosby’s insane work ethic - this one is full of laughs, truth bombs, and a ton of football talk.

The Andy Staples Show & Friends: A show about college football
In the first of a series of special edition Until Saturday episodes, Damien Harris chats with college football figures about changes, trends, and fascinating topics in the sport. Damien's former New England Patriots teammate and ex-Wisconsin Badger, James White, joins today's podcast to answer: 'Why haven't we seen a running back Heisman since Derrick Henry?" Damien and James share hilarious and insightful tales from their time with Henry and Melvin Gordon, respectively. What traits did those two have in college that apply to Cam Ward, Ashton Jeanty and other Heisman hopefuls this season? How good is Jeanty, really, and what will it take for another RB to win the Heisman? Plus, why is the NFL treating RBs poorly?YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UntilSaturdayCall/text the Until Saturday phone and leave us a question for our Monday reaction podcasts: (316) 462-9852Subscribe to the FREE Until Saturday newletter:: https://theathletic.com/newsletters/until-saturdayHosts: Damien Harris (@DHx34), James White (@SweetFeet_White)Audio editor: John RossExecutive producer: Cam Molina (@commentatorcam)Supervising producer: Michael Martinez (@MikeMartinezDC) Hosted on Acast.
