This week's show themes: Eagles-Cowboys and ... kindness? Yep, the Birds are 13-1 and heading to Dallas for a Christmas Eve showdown with the Cowboys but may not have Jalen Hurts available due to a shoulder sprain. We talk all-things Birds with former Eagles receiver "Arkansas Fred" Barnett! Our second guest is the author of a great new book, out just in time for Hanukkah and Christmas: It's Matt Goldberg and his book, written with the help of dozens of guest writers, is called Rings of Kindness. Plus, Bill, "Boop" and Chet make their Week 16 NFL picks ... we remember Hall of Famer Franco Harris ... and we pass along holiday wishes to our fantastic viewers and listeners.

Are we excited about this week's show? Heck yeah we are! The Eagles are 12-1 and we have a Hall of Fame journalist back on Philly Pressbox Radio for the first time since he officially retired last spring, the great RAY DIDINGER. Lots of Eagles talk with Ray, plus he tells us how he watches Sunday football games now that he doesn't have to go to the studio. Also on this week's show: Bill, Chet and "Boop" make their Week 15 NFL predictions ... and you'll get a tasty "Random Chet" segment.

The Eagles keep on rolling -- 11-1 now, with a battle at the Meadowlands against the Giants up next. Lots of Birds talk on this week show, including an Eagles-Giants preview, plus Sixers and Phillies talk -- who isn't excited about the Phils signing Trea Turner? Wow.. We get help from a couple of great guests: Philadelphia Inquirer Sixers beat writer KEITH POMPEY and a former Inquirer Phillies reporter who is now NJ.com's New York Giants beat reporter, BOB BROOKOVER. All of that, plus Bill, Chet and "Boop" make their NFL Week 14 predictions.

The Eagles have improved to 10-1, the 76ers are on a mini-winning streak, Team USA advanced to the World Cup's Round of 16 ... heck, even the Flyers finally snapped a long losing skid! All of that gets addressed on this week's Philly Pressbox Radio show with a couple of great guests stopping by: SportsRadio WIP's JAMES SELTZER and sports artist JORDAN SPECTOR. Even though Bill Furman is on vacation this week, he'll be sure to pass along his NFL Week 13 picks -- Jim "Chet" Chesko and Bob Vetrone Jr. ("Boop") make their selections, too. Plus, we sneak in a rockin' Random Chet segment!

The Eagles somehow snagged a victory in Indy on Sunday. Meanwhile, the 76ers keep losing players to injury and now welcome a certain former No. 1 overall pick back to Philly. We talk all-things-Sixers with the team's long-time radio voice, Tom McGinnis, in a special Tuesday evening show! Of course, Bill Furman, Jim "Chet" Chesko and Bob Vetrone Jr. ("Boop") make some NFL Week 12 picks along the way as we all get ready for Turkey Day!

Any thoughts of an undefeated Eagles season went out the door with a loud crash Monday night. Now what? Lots of Birds talk on this week's Philly Pressbox Radio show as former Eagles beat writer MARK ECKEL makes a return visit. We cover the Sixers, Flyers and Phillies, too, of course ... and Bill, Chet and "Boop" make their Week 11 NFC predictions.

Well, the Phillies and Union both came up a bit short, but the Eagles are still unbeaten! Also, the Philadelphia Sports Hall of Fame last week inducted several new members and hosted a wonderful banquet; the Hall's treasurer, Mike Conroy, visits the show to talk about the Hall and the current Philly spors scene. Plus, you'll see Chet's interviews with a couple of those new inductees, former Eagles kicker David Akers and Phillies all-times hits leader Jimmy Rollins. Of course, Bill, Chet and "Boop" make their NFL Week 10 predictions, too.

This week's show serves as something of a pregame show for Wednesday evening's World Series Game 5 between the Astros and host Phillies ... and a celebration of the undefeated Eagles. We can also celebrate the Union advancing to Saturday's MLS Cup final in Los Angeles and the upcoming 10th Anniversary of the Barkann Foundation Healing Hearts Foundation. Our guests: former Phillies broadcaster CHRIS WHEELER (pinch-hitting for Glenn Wilson) ... and Barkann Foundation Executive Director (and die-hard Eagles fan) MIKE BARNES. Of course, you'll also get Bill, Chet and Boop's picks for some key Week 9 NFL games.

With the Phillies heading to Houston for the World Series and the Eagles looking to stay unbeaten, we're in a festive mood this week! Visiting Philly Pressbox Radio for the first time is The Athletic's Eagles beat reporter ZACH BERMAN; can the Birds keep it going? We squeeze in some Flyers and 76ers talk, too, and Bill, "Boop" and "Chet" make their NFC Week 8 predictions.

What a great time on the Philadelphia sports scene with the Phillies in the NLCS, the Eagles a perfect 6-0, and the Flyers and Sixers having just started their seasons. We talk about all of that on this week's Philly Pressbox Radio show, with some help from long-time 76ers reporter DEI LYNAM. Plus, Bill, "Boop" and "Chet" make their picks for some key Week 7 NFL games. Expect a fun show!
