The best way with group-listening would likely be to use the iPhone with a wireless speaker
Use Siri to play music and podcasts - Apple Support
Play audio from iPhone on HomePod and other wireless speakers - Apple Support
How to pair iPhone with a non-Apple bluetooth speaker:
Pair a third-party Bluetooth accessory with your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

Else:
Wondering if this Apple Support article can help : ie: switch to the speaker:
While on a call on iPhone - Apple Support
Eg: says
"When you’re on a phone call, you can switch the audio to the speaker or a Bluetooth device.
"Tap the audio button, then choose an audio destination".
Clearer sound ?
You might want to check the speaker grill for any obstructions or see if it needs cleaning
and
What to do: If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker - Apple Support
All the best :-)
