*Emergency Football Podcast*

I (Kyle) have a super self indulgent episode (this may be more for me than for you) about just how good at playing quarterback in the NFL Kirk Cousins has been for over a decade. If you want to hear some thoughts on quarterbacking, Kirk's career, and the Atlanta Falcons, this episode is for you. If not, PLEASE skip and have a Merry Christmas. We'll see you in 2026 with the Friendlee Awards!

Like a Phoenix rising from the ashes, Friends From Football makes its triumphant return in this standalone podcast episode. It's been over 2 years since I (Kyle) hopped on here to chat ball. With starting NFL QB (friend of the pod) Kirk Cousins balling last night, I felt like it was time to check in. This episode is part random NFL tangents, part therapy session and part celebration. While I realize that Kirk Cousins, the Falcons, Vikings and the NFL have probably almost no crossover with Marvel fans, I appreciate those of who you do stick around to listen.

The first Avengers movie that released in 2012 is still one of our favorite movies of all time. It really holds up well. In an effort to continue a tradition that we started years ago, today's episode is our complete live audio commentary on this film. We recorded this while watching the movie at the same time and we think that's probably how you should listen to the episode as well. Make sure to hit play on the film exactly at the moment we countdown to. We'll be back with another episode like this one for Avengers: Age of Ultron soon!

Today we have another FFW+ bonus "Friend-lee Freebie" episode where we discuss a simple question; "What do you want to see in Spider-Man: Brand New Day?"

Not "what do you think will happen" or "what will happen," but more "what would please you if it happened" kind of thing.
