Alex seems like such a genuine human being. I hope they keep the tandem of he and TJ together for years to come. As always Ben and Spence, great show. Still need to try get you some good ol Canadian beers to have on the show. God bless boys.
Alex! 😆 I didn't know he actually speaks…👍
the holding call was a correct call so i think you need to call that for consistency
I love this show much but the ASMR of them eating is like nails on a chalkboard to me. Like it's making me unrationally angry LOL
They just introduced Cheerwine Ale. Gotta try it next.
Listening to Ben grunt and smack while eating was kinda rough lol good show though
Alex impressions are actually so good
You guys should get Snoop Dog on the show, see if he can bring his best buddy Martha Stewart. Something tells me Bens basement would be filled with smoke so bad your fans wont even be able to see you guys. Ratings will go through the roof.
Spence, you need to get Ben to try a Yeungling Black and Tan. I cannot believe he never heard of that.
Awe C’mon! We fly straight through from Newark to Honolulu 10.5 hours. The trick, change you watch to Hawaii time, have something to eat, watch a movie, sleep for 3 hours, wake up over Palm Springs, enjoy the ride over California have a drink, watch a movie, then sleep again. Wake up, your landing on the island, stay up till 11:00pm, go to bed next morning no jet lag! Enjoy guys, great show! Alex is a fantastic individual, honest, true, and grounded. Stay Humble and you will have a phenomenal career with Pittsburgh!
Just checked out The Hangman video from the War hippies pretty cool!!!
Definitely need Hines on the show!!!
Mean no green 💚🍏💚🍏 Ben's alrea
It would probably never happen, but it would be cool to see Terry Bradshaw on the show. I’d like to see Ben’s reactions to a couple of Terry’s play and extending to make the Immaculate reception this and visa versa
Hey Ben, if Kenny were to ask, would you train him during the offseason
Your show is great I hope you get Hines and Bettis on one day
Evan needs to get Spence and Ben in a apron an teach you how to cook on a grill
Food looks great by the way
Alex should’ve been selected to the pro bowl with his stats and play this season.
Great show Ben, as always keep them coming! And Alex and those impressions are so awesome.
You should get all 3 watt brothers on
You need have me on the lol im 58,ive been a steeler fan for 50 years .any I myst say im quite a piecevof work a d will make you laugh tha whole time. Oh and get this for being one of the biggest steeler fan ever,i have never been to a game .I live scranton pa not so far but I guess im lazy.hah a. A y way l ove your podcast so pea ce out brother. ✌️
Let's get DeAngelo Williams on the show. Loved that guy as a Steeler.
Love the podcast, but listening to people eat is meh.
Colorado Springs, large Steelers fan presence and plenty of breweries to host your event
general kenobi
Ben and Spence if you guys wanted to try cheerwine you can get a bottle of it at sheetz!
Loving the new food aspect and more episodes and guests! Spence is damn good at smoothly carrying the podcast along! My three Bs are Big Ben and beer! I’m currently sipping coors brewing companies Keystone Light! ( sold in 15 packs). I’m from PA but live In NC now! Cheerwine like a cherry coke! Great BBQ down here! thanks for the entertaining shows you guys! I look forward to every episode

Why did you play wit josh Allen like he was a kid week 1?😂😂😂u cudda beat them 70-0 ya know 😂😂
Not only did that Waygu have Jazz and Beer – but for sure it also got a few massages. Helps with the marbeling in the meat
You guys are awesome! Great season Alex . Looking forward to seeing you and TJ wreck some offenses next year 💪🏼. Let’s GOO
Broadcast from the new Iron City Brewery…It's so awesome !!
Yooo shoutout to alex impersonations hahaha 🔥🔥
Evan is the man lol
Love the show, but I can't lie: Listening to people eat makes me unreasonably angry. Lol
Alex Highsmitty!!! Officially our 4th star on defense!!
Best way to drink a dark beer black and tan mix it it
Ben just remember if you do, French fry pizza
Alex has become a true steeler and will retire here I’m sure he gets contract extension cracks me up to hear fans say they may trade him now way does that happen he meets every criteria of what a steeler should be on and off the field should of been in pro bowl and all pro this year guys who got their don’t have stats near his but that’s ok cause just puts chip on his shoulder for 2023 and I wouldn’t wanna line up in front of him! Alex will probably get 2 Super Bowl rings and in hall of fame he also has the greatest parents who raised a fine young man!! Best of luck with great health in 2023 see you in Super Bowl when you all shock Nfl been fan for 54 years everytime I call it always comes true called Ben’s superbowls too
I sure hope Omar can find a way to keep Alex Highsmith in black and gold. Love this dude. This dude with TJ and we good for 30 + sacks a season. Let's go
Omg the string. I literally thought that was a stream of light lol
Evan is the king
ALEX LIKES SPOTTED COW 😝😝😝
I didn't even know Ben had a podcast I'm glad I found it🔥💪🏽 #SteelerGang
I was just wondering. I miss seeing #7 on the field, a lot. Does Ben miss not getting dressed for a game and if he's at a home game does he miss being down there with the team, the coaches and miss us, the fans cheering for him? He's a tough act to follow. My heart has been his, his whole career. P. S. What do you think of the XFL and Hines as a coach
Awesome
Need to see Sidney Crosby on the show!!!
Hear me out….FOOTBAHLIN, LIVE, from the longest drive tees
