The Roomies Award Show: We created this show to give everybody an inside look into the quarterback room: the most important room in any organization. And we've done that over the last 19 episodes we've recorded. So now, it's time to look back at those conversations we had with Josh Allen, Trevor Lawrence, Kirk Cousins, and a whole bunch more. We picked out the best of the best moments from the show to give out awards. You've seen The Dundies from The Office. We completely stole that idea to create our own awards show, The Roomies. If this is the first episode you're watching, please like and subscribe. And on maybe our only serious note of this whole episode, if you've watched any of what we've been working on this season, thank you. We built this not knowing who would listen, and we're really grateful people have.
