    i LOVE that Josh is always plugging Tasker to the Hall of Fame! Just crazy how perfect he fits with the Bills man... nuts
  • @bigoldoaktree79
    As a Buffalo native, massive Bills fan, and guy who runs a tree nursery and small vegetable farm; this shit hits.
  • @cmo9011
    Farmers are the backbone of our country. Great interview!
  • Farming is the most under appreciated/valued jobs in our society. Glad this podcast is happening.
  • @hilogreg5216
    As a Buffalo native and someone who spent his entire business career as a nursery grower in Hawaii 5000 miles from where I grew up, how can I not love how a California farm boy became the toast of the town. Great interview. nice insight. Go Bills
  • @adamcronin3112
    Great epi. JA17 is the man. Josh’s sister did yell at me at Metlife during the Bills-Giants game 3 years ago for having a Jim Kelly Jersey not a 17. His family is awesome. Go Bills

    Couple things. This was a great interview. On both sides. But man Josh is easy to root for. He feels like the friends you grew up with. He roots for the right causes. His marketing team has done a great job slowly building his brand. His story is easy to root for and he’s such a perfect fit for the Bills. I want so badly to see him win a championship in Buffalo and finish his career there. We went to training camp last year (my 17 year old and I) and it’s been a bucket list thing. It was crazy to see how insane the fans are over him. There was a lady that was literally trying to throw her infant at him to sign. He handles all that with grace. He’s just a good dude and I wish him all the success in the world. For him and us as bills fans. He represents so well. And how cool is it with the farming that he’s already got an end game plan he’s putting together and he gets to do it with his family. Seems perfect.

    I love that he said he doesn't want to play for anyone else that made my heart just melt😢😢❤
  • @MrMateo716
    Gotta love Josh! Really a good dude. Let’s bring one home. Go Bills!
  • @dougger393
    Thank all you farmers out there for all you do. True unsung heroes
  • @jimmesc
    This afternoon I was in my tractor. Tonight I'm listening to Josh. It's been a good day. 23:40 Go ahead. Say it. JOSH'S NUTS. 😆
  • @mdsenek3748
    not just Buffalo loves Allen... CANADA DOES!
  • @Eddie-lf8vt
    Much love to Josh Allen and much love to the farming community. Hell of an interview!!! Go Bills!!!
  • @tomford2218
    Josh is clearly a family farmer and I respect that immeasurably. He hasn't forgotten where he came from. Steve Tasker in HOF is really about what a new position needs to be, Special Teams, in the HOF. I'd also say that the utility player in the MLB should be appreciated as well.
  • @amandarachel2068
    Ugh. As if I needed to fall more deeply in love with the guy. Thanks a lot 😂
