  • Love the Guests

    Ben is one of the greatest to have the privilege of wearing the O&B! I love the guests and unique perspectives of their interviews and stories. With that being said, can you PLEASE SLOWW down. Between your pace of speech and audio issues, I have to change the podcast to 1/2 speed to fully hear the question and response. Just some constructive criticism! Keep up the great work and look forward to future episodes!

  • Great Insights from #84

    Ben is one of the best TE’s to wear the Orange and Blue. Unbelievable athleticism and, more importantly, a great human being who has lived his life the right way. His podcast is insightful and timely. Gator fans will love it. It’s great to see #84 so connected with the program again after a great NFL career.🐊

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 115: Jayden Woods
Q: Jayden, going into the portal, right? For those that have never done it, what did you learn about the portal going in and coming out?
He explains there was guidance from mentors, the process was intense and unpredictable, and ultimately Florida stood out as the best option after comparing other schools.
Episode 108: Lito Sheppard
Q: What does the No Fly Zone mentality mean in your career context?
No Fly Zone was my mindset on the field—constant confidence and willingness to take away the opponent's big plays. It wasn't just a catchphrase; it represented a rigorous approach to route recognition, positioning, and film study that helped me stay ahead of elite receivers.
Episode 108: Lito Sheppard
Q: What was it like going to Philadelphia after Jacksonville and Florida?
The move to Philadelphia brought a culture of intense accountability and a high-energy, sports-obsessed community. The fans are vocal, knowledgeable, and expect you to perform at a peak level; it sharpened my game and shaped how I approached the quarterback matchups and edge-of-seat moments.
