Followed by Taylor fighting for his life on the bus explaining his battle with gout. Afterward Vitello hops on the pod and gives the boys an incredible interview.

Along the way: light-hearted stories, locker room moments, and unexpected insights into what it takes to win at the highest level of college baseball and what it will take to win a World Series after what we all just witnessed between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays.

Best of the Bus: Jared Goff, Amon Ra St. Brown & Penei Sewell On The Detroit Lions

Recorded: July 25th 2024 | The Boys took on Motor City! After an exciting 2023 season, it only made sense for Will and Taylor to travel to the Detroit Lions' training camp to see what the team had in store for 2024. Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and Penei Sewell broke down their thoughts on the future of the Detroit Lions, their roles in the team’s success, and how the Lions could ultimately achieve their greatest goal — a Super Bowl. Will and Taylor, as always, asked the hard-hitting questions: “Would you cut your d*ck off for a Super Bowl?”... “What’s your biggest pet peeve about Dan Campbell?”... “Are you packing lotion in your training camp essentials bag?” Between the laughs and jokes, there were also some real, thoughtful moments. Jared Goff opened up about his emotions when he was traded to Detroit and what it felt like to face the Rams in the playoffs. The Lions had plenty to look forward to heading into 2024, but they weren’t looking too far ahead. All three players emphasized the importance of training camp — that every rep brought them one step closer to the start of the NFL season. This one was an epic one, so enjoy!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
