On the ‘Whistles’ podcast, Northwestern football stars Jeremy Larkin, Jake Saunders, and Jared Thomas give you an in-depth look at the student-athlete lifestyle and what it’s truly like to balance school and the workload of an elite athlete. For more information on the inspiration for the show, listen to NGL’s interview with Jeremy here.

On the first episode of ‘Whistles,’ co-hosts Jeremy Larkin, Jared Thomas, and Jake Saunders talk about the inspiration behind the podcast (1:32) before diving into important conversations such as whether or not Jeremy is really from Cincy (5:20) and how Jake started a trend on the football team by wearing Birkenstocks (16:26).
