Podcaster Bobbi Althoff had to be carried out of a Nashville bar earlier this week while on vacation with friends.
In a video obtained by TMZ on Tuesday, the host of “The Really Good Podcast” appeared to be passed out as NFL player Sean Murphy-Bunting helped her exit the Barstool Sports Bar.
The footage shows the 26-year-old Althoff seemingly unconscious while Murphy-Bunting, 27, who plays for the Arizona Cardinals, carried her in his arms before placing her gently on a set of stairs. Shortly after, Murphy-Bunting picked her up again and transported her to a waiting black SUV.
While the specifics of the incident remain unclear, Althoff later expressed her gratitude to the football star for ensuring her safe departure from the bar. “Last night was scary but thankful for having good friends in my life like @seanmurphybunting for looking out for me,” she wrote atop a photo of the two together.

Murphy-Bunting also shared the story on his social media, adding, “Always ?,” highlighting the bond between them.
Althoff had posted several light-hearted clips from the night out on Monday, including a fun outfit reveal and another video from inside the bar.
In one short clip, she could be seen laughing and dancing with her friend Ben Da Donn in a booth, sipping champagne as music played around them.
The podcaster, who is notably friends with rapper Drake, credited him with significantly boosting her rise to fame last summer. Reps for Althoff did not respond to Page Six’s request for comment regarding the incident.
This event occurred nearly one year after Althoff separated from her husband, Cory Althoff. Although Cory, a software engineer, didn’t officially file for divorce until February 2024, he listed their separation date as July 4, 2023—the same month Bobbi gained widespread attention for her interview with Drake.
The former couple, who share two young children, finalized their divorce just two weeks after filing the paperwork. Despite rumors suggesting a romantic link between Bobbi and Drake, she has denied any infidelity. Insiders previously told TMZ that the split stemmed from Cory’s desire to maintain a low-profile lifestyle, while Bobbi embraced her newfound fame.
As Althoff continues to navigate her personal and professional life, this incident serves as a reminder of the challenges that come with sudden fame and the importance of having a supportive circle of friends.
