After over a decade of dominating sideline coverage and building a cult-favorite podcast, Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson are back with a twist. The iconic duo, known for their unfiltered takes and friendship goals, are stepping away from their FOX contracts—and stepping into something a little more chaotic: podcasting with their husbands. If you thought “Calm Down” was fun before, wait till you hear the new lineup.
Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson dropped the surprise on Instagram with the caption “It’s Finally Happening” and fans are freaking out
The big reveal came via an Instagram story from the official Calm Down podcast page, sending fans into full-blown hype mode. The post, reading “IT’S FINALLY HAPPENING”, teased a brand-new podcast episode. This time, Erin and Charissa are handing over the mic—to their husbands. Yep, Jarret Stoll , a two-time Stanley Cup champ and Erin’s husband, and Steven Cundari , a marketing exec and Charissa’s hubby, are officially joining the party. And if the women’s past energy is anything to go by, this new version is going to be loud, hilarious, and way too real.
Erin and Charissa’s departure from FOX Sports marks the end of a major era. Both women were key voices on the sidelines for years—Erin being a staple during NFL broadcasts and Charissa hosting top-tier shows. But instead of slowing down or chasing traditional broadcast gigs, they’re doubling down on their own brand. They’re betting on their chemistry, their voices, and now, their families. It’s a power move that shows just how much control they’ve taken over their own careers.
It’s not just about football or fame—this podcast is about real life. Jarret Stoll famously slid into Erin’s DMs back in 2012, and the rest was history. Meanwhile, Charissa met Steven Cundari post-divorce through mutual friends—specifically Matthew and Kelly Stafford. Now, the two couples are bringing their stories (and quirks) to the mic. Whether it’s Jarret navigating Erin’s overflowing closet or Steven adapting to life with someone who talks for a living, expect candid convos, playful roasting, and everything in between.
With FOX in the rearview mirror, Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson are charging into a new season with something better: freedom, fun, and full creative control. By bringing their husbands into the Calm Down universe, they’re not just starting a new chapter—they’re rewriting the entire playbook. If the original version was a fan-favorite, this next one might just be legendary.
