Speaker 1 Thank you to our sponsor, KFC. Thanks, Timmy's coming up, and KFC's starting a little holiday debate: turkey or chicken.
Not much of a debate, if you ask me. Yeah, let's be real.

Speaker 1 It's the you need gravy to survive a bird.

Speaker 1 Let's be honest: is it really worth spending eight hours cooking a turkey when you could just get something better, especially if it just causes you to go through a drive-through and get a bucket of it, maybe?

Speaker 1 How about KFC's extra crispy chicken? Juicy, crispy, and always finger-licking good, baby. Extra crispy does sound good.
The underdog choice for all your holiday gatherings.

Speaker 1 KFC is saying cluck turkey this Thanksgiving. That's right.
We're inviting all of you to give dry turkey the bird. It's time to ditch the dry, boring bird this holiday and order KFC instead.

Speaker 1 You can't go wrong with a bucket of chicken, a good game or movie, or just some good times with friends and family. This year, skip the turkey and celebrate with KFC's Extra Krispy chicken.

Speaker 1 Thank you to our partner, Boarshead. Ooh, a little meat.

Speaker 1 The NFL season is in full swing, and you know what that means. Time to eat meat.

Speaker 1 Millions of fans are turning their homes into game day headquarters every weekend. Gosh, and whether you're hosting a watch party at home or tailgating before a big game, you gotta feed the crowd.

Speaker 1 You gotta feed the crowd. That's where Boar's Head comes in the clutch.
Yes. Their platters are literally literally a game changer.
We're talking premium meats, cheeses, dips, and more.

Speaker 1 What's your go-to deli platter, Jason? I mean, any of them.

Speaker 1 Dude, anything that combines crackers, meat, cheese, and mustard, it doesn't matter what kind it is. You got Pepper Jack, you got Provolone.

Speaker 1 You got cheddar, you got beer cheese, you got salami, you got kielbasa. There you go.
Don't be all archy with me. Ritz crackers.

Speaker 1 Maybe you could do some of those like whole grain thick boys that are around. Those are kind of nice too.
If you want to be kind of different, you go with like a wheat thin.

Speaker 1 If you really want to elevate your game day spread and score big with your entire home gating, that's tailgating at home.

Speaker 1 Visit your local Boarshead Deli. They'll hook you up with a ready-made platter.
Ooh. Or you can build on your own.
There you go. Either way, you're upgrading your game day with some serious flavor.

Speaker 1 Boarshead, committed to craft since 1905. How about it? It's just a great name, too.
Over 100. Yeah, you know what you're getting.
Boar's head. What kind of waxing was this? I did a bikini wax.

Speaker 1 You did a what? They tried to talk me into the Brazilian, which you know what the Brazilian is? Uh-huh. That's the bikini plus the butt.

Speaker 1 They do a little butt strip, and I was like, ah, you know, whoo. Well, they said the butt's actually not as painful.
I don't want to do it.

Speaker 1 Kylie's response was, Jason, that's the one thing you could have used.

Speaker 1 welcome back to New Heights, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, a wondry show produced by Wave Sports and Entertainment and brought to you by Audible.

Speaker 1 Who wants to read when you could just listen?

Speaker 1 That's a good point. We're your host.
I'm Travis Kelsey, my big brother Jason Kelsey out of Cleveland Heights, Ohio. Hey,

Speaker 1 how are you doing? Subscribe on YouTube, Wondray Plus, wherever you get your podcast. Follow the show on all social media at New Heights Show with OneS Jason.

Speaker 1 Tell the people what we got coming up, please. I beg it of you.
Oh, we got a stacked episode this week, Trav. That's right.

Speaker 1 We're going to talk about Jason's week down the shore, celebrity bartending,

Speaker 1 potentially some bikini waxes, beer bowl three, and also, as everyone else saw, Travis shaking it off with a special guest down at Tight End University.

Speaker 1 Broke the internet there for a couple of hours. We've also got some no-dumb questions.
Movie club updates. Maybe Travis finally eating some mayo.
We'll see what happens.

Speaker 1 Oh, and yeah, Brad fucking Pitt is on the episode, ladies and gentlemen. That's right.
He's stopping by. Brad.

Speaker 1 Travis, you already know this. We already talked to him.
Yes, he's in the episode.

Speaker 1 He's going to talk all things F1, the movie, really just F1 in general. The guy's a huge fan of cars and racing, his Chiefs fandom, and some more shenanigan things.
I don't know, know, whatever.

Speaker 1 All right, first, it's time for news.

Speaker 1 New news coming in. New news.
Film club updates. We asked you guys to help us pick our next film clubs.
And here are the top four most liked suggestions.

Speaker 1 Pretty woman, the Hannah Montana movie, most popular response by far. Man, that sounds miserable.
Okay, parent trapped.

Speaker 1 10 things I hate about you. Do we have to go with these four? No.
So there are a couple other suggestions that I thought were were interesting. Okay.
Nice.

Speaker 1 One, it is the 50th anniversary of the all-time greatest summer scary movie ever created. Nice.
You are hooked on the scary deal. All right.
What do we got? Jaws. 50th anniversary.

Speaker 1 Dude, I mean, I've seen it a bunch. It breaks every rule we came up with yesterday,

Speaker 1 last episode. I've seen it.
It's not for kids.

Speaker 1 Although I did watch it as a kid, and it's a reason why I didn't go swimming in pools because I thought the sharks should somehow get through the ventilation systems. You went to every pool I went to.

Speaker 1 I was terrified, though, every time I was in them. Like, you were only terrified when you were alone.
I was terrified anytime I was in the deep end.

Speaker 1 Even in John Carol? Dude, all of them. I swear to God.
I don't know why I would think that these sharks could get through the ventilation systems or something, but Jaws fucked me up bad.

Speaker 1 And it's an iconic movie. Another one that I think would be pretty epic.
I worry that it's not

Speaker 1 like there's not enough people today that have seen the movie. Like, this is definitely a different generation

Speaker 1 just before ours. Never-ending story.
I bet you've never even seen the movie. And I think I've seen it, but I only remember like the dog-dragon kind of creature.

Speaker 1 So I think it would be a good movie to. I do remember.
I remember the dog, yeah. Right? Or creature, whatever that was, yeah.
So I think that one would be pretty awesome.

Speaker 1 I thought both of those suggestions were good. I kind of like going with some of these cult movies, like Princess Bride.

Speaker 1 Princess Bride's a fucking great movie. Oh, I want to watch it just because you haven't seen it, maybe.
Here's what I worry about with Hannah Montana: what do you got?

Speaker 1 It's too niche, and not enough people are going to know it outside of the select few amount of female watchers that were born in the 90s. That's what I worry about with the Hannah Montana movie.

Speaker 1 And it's not even 90s, early 2000s. When did this movie come out, Brandon? It's got to be mid-2000s.
Because we were already 2000. This is a way from us.
10 Things I Hate About You.

Speaker 1 I mean, I'm kind of in on rom-cons. I don't know that that's the best one.
Brandon, look up cult classic movies. Top cult classic films.
Ooh.

Speaker 1 We're doing this segment over again. We're doing the same exact thing we did two weeks ago.
I remember 10 Things I Hate About You. I just don't, I don't like where this list got to.

Speaker 1 I just am not a fan. Do you want to just paunch on this and we'll do it another week and we'll just cut it out of the episode? Well, I want to see what people say about the never-ending story.

Speaker 1 And I think never-ending story would be a good one. We said we were just going to pick.
We said we were just going to pick once we saw the suggestions, and now we're going back to more voting.

Speaker 1 Well, okay, then fine. Pick never ending.
I saw somebody suggest never-ending story. Never ending story.
We'll throw that up there. Princess Pride was another one.

Speaker 1 You want to do 10 things I hate about you? I think we never narrowed it to a vote. These are just the four most suggested.

Speaker 1 We said we weren't going to vote. We said you guys were just going to look at suggestions and then pick one.
All right, we're changing our fucking minds, Brandon. We do this all the time.

Speaker 1 I know we're changing our fucking minds.

Speaker 1 Jake has unlimited time to make a fucking voting thing. All right.
He's going to be fine. Jake.

Speaker 1 You don't know that. He's busy.

Speaker 1 He's very busy. He's a very busy boy.
Listen, I mean, running the New Hyde socials is a busy job. I understand that.
I'm not busy at all. We can do whatever we want.
Fuck you, Jake. I gave you an out.

Speaker 1 I gave you a goddamn out, Jake.

Speaker 1 I got all the time in the world.

Speaker 1 Perfect. So we got Pretty Woman, Austin Powers, Princess Bride.
Do we do Never New Story? There you go. Does that feel right? Or should we do another one of their movies? Jaws.
Good for Jaws. Jaws.

Speaker 1 Jaws. Those are the four.

Speaker 1 I think those are the four. It's the 50th anniversary of Jaws.
I would love to go back and dive deep on little Jaws action. Put it to a vote.
Perfect. Boom.
Arana. See, that's how it's done, Brandon.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Gosh.
We got there so much quicker than last time. All righty, another new news.
Travis has gotten a pin up now. Holy shnikes.
I don't know if you guys saw this. It does happen quick.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it did.

Speaker 1 How does it happen so fast? It is. Listen, there's a lot of half-naked Kelseys going around the last couple of weeks.
All right.

Speaker 1 Our friends at Accelerator challenge someone to get a Travis Kelsey pin-up tattoo. I didn't know Accelerator put this ask out.
I didn't see that. Rocketbock, baby.
All right. Drink Accelerator.

Speaker 1 If somebody gets pin-up Travis with Accelerator tattooed, we'd have to give them an insane amount of cases of Accelerator, I'm assuming.

Speaker 1 They did this

Speaker 1 for free accelerators.

Speaker 1 Listen, that's good marketing right there. That's good.
That's how we get it done over there, Accelerator. It's what we do.

Speaker 1 Nick Jones is a police officer from Ohio.

Speaker 1 A police officer got this tattooed? That's amazing. This is hilarious.
And he got 25 cases of accelerator and a signed Kelsey jersey. There you go.
There you go. Shout out to Jonesy.

Speaker 1 Yeah, Jonesy. Jonesy is saying here that

Speaker 1 the tattoo comes with a funny story, and honestly, it's a pretty great tattoo anyways.

Speaker 1 Plus, I've got to show some love to a fellow Ohioan. Nice, man.
Shout out to the O, babe. Dude, it's a freaking great tattoo.

Speaker 1 Even regardless, even if you don't, even if people don't know this is Travis Kelsey, this is a fantastic freaking tattoo.

Speaker 1 Ballsy. Nick Jones.
Love it. Oh, man.
Jones admits the reception has been mixed.

Speaker 1 I don't know that we need to encourage more people.

Speaker 1 I think we should stop with the pin-up tattoos at this point. How bad do you want accelerators? But I do think that we should reward the artists that have been coming up with these tattoos.

Speaker 1 We need to create products that pay these artists for their artwork. What do you think about coming up with some new heights temporary tattoos with this artwork on them?

Speaker 1 So other people can potentially have the pinups on them. Maybe just throw some shorts on me if we're going to do this.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's going to be true to form.

Speaker 1 We can't change it up.

Speaker 1 You can't change it up. It's got to be true.
I don't want to. If people are doing this on their own, cool.
If we're going to be a part of this, it's got to be shorts.

Speaker 1 Got to to throw some shorts on me. I kind of think that defeats the purpose a little bit.

Speaker 1 Dude, maybe we can figure out something. God damn, that was hilarious.
What would we give to have somebody create a Jet's Jake pin-up tattoo?

Speaker 1 That'd be pretty epic. That'd be fucking hilarious, actually.
What would we give them? I don't know that we have much to give other than money. Signed jersey.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 You get to come on the podcast. Yeah, no, that'll get you.
Listen, I'll bring you on the pod if you get a pin up with Jets Jake. Yeah, you get to jump on the pod and ask any question you want, man.

Speaker 1 I mean, anybody that gets a tattoo of Jets Jake is going to be an interesting person. So they're probably going to be great on the podcast.
Probably be a fucking, yeah, big show. It's a good point.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I think that's it for the pin up talk. All right, we're good.

Speaker 1 Well done. Shout out to Officer Jonesy, man.
Officer Jones, that's right. Breaking news.

Speaker 1 Last item of new news: the University of Cincinnati has sent us an exclusive look at the brand new Nike jerseys. That's right.
We're the first ones to see them.

Speaker 1 I don't even know if the team see them. This might be the first time the team sees them.
Oh, let's see these puppies. Here we go.
Did you not get them?

Speaker 1 They're in Kansas City. I'm not in Kansas City.
Okay, I got you. I got them.
I got them.

Speaker 1 I got them. I got them.
I got them. Bam!

Speaker 1 Do you see it? Is it good? Oh, they went a little retro. Little retro with it.
I dig the outline.

Speaker 1 I always forget you were number 60 in college. I was.
I mean, it looks like a Cincinnati jersey.

Speaker 1 They went more sleek this year.

Speaker 1 And I'm a fan with it. I think sometimes the colleges go a little bit too much.
I think those are clean. You got a white one? We also got the pants.
Nope, no, no. We just got black.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Black is better. Black is slimming.

Speaker 1 Black is slimming. No offensive lineman likes to wear white.
I mean, they're clean. They're very clean.
And they definitely have a little bit of a retro look. Are the numbers different?

Speaker 1 Are they different style numbers? Did we go backwards in terms of like

Speaker 1 numbers that we used back in the day? I think what's different is they have like the red outline around them. I don't ever remember that having it.
Okay.

Speaker 1 And I'm sure the styling is a little bit different too. Yeah.

Speaker 1 This thing is nice. I'll tell you what, those things are going to look sweet when we're in fucking Arrowhead.
That's right. Laying an ass whooping on Nebraska.
Let's fucking go, cats.

Speaker 1 The corn down by the river.

Speaker 1 I see.

Speaker 1 You're going to squeeze in this thing?

Speaker 1 This is what happens when, you know what I mean? You lose a little weight, guys. You can start squeezing into things a lot easier.
How do I look?

Speaker 1 Dude, you got so thin that number 60 doesn't look good on you anymore. I know.
That's how thin you got.

Speaker 1 I look like a long snapper now. Yeah, I need...
I need a big old keg on the waist and like

Speaker 1 a long, long hair do i go back to uh number 48 my linebacker numbers would that would would that look better

Speaker 1 that would even look more like a long snapper 48's a long snapper number i think 40s are probably where you

Speaker 1 where i would sit yeah somewhere in the 40s

Speaker 1 so depressing 45 a nice 45 nice 45 nice 45 oh a 44 all-stop 4-4 is definitely the best uh 40 number all-stop was 4-4

Speaker 1 all-stop was 40.

Speaker 1 Good call. 40.
Sorry. Yeah, correct.

Speaker 1 You're correct. Yes.

Speaker 1 Somebody else was

Speaker 1 at Syracuse. 44.
There were like two all-time great running backs that both wore 44. Is Jim Brown one of them? Yep, Jim Brown and Ernie Davis.
Those are the two. Nice.

Speaker 1 So, yeah, I'll take a little Jim Brown all day.

Speaker 1 Nine yards of pop. High school, baby.
Let's go.

Speaker 1 What a legend. I mean, I ran like Jim Brown.
I told.

Speaker 1 I was basically jim brown in high school that was it was like a reincarnation

Speaker 1 i want to apologize right now because i told uh bust it with the boys i was on i was uh

Speaker 1 apologizing to who me yeah what did you do i told everybody you were in the marching band again why do you keep spreading this misinformation

Speaker 1 Because you could have. You could have done that and you didn't do that, but that would have been so badass because you averaged like 20 tackles a game.

Speaker 1 And if you would have done

Speaker 1 nine yards a pop on offense, saxophone in the middle, and then and then just been out there. I mean, I would have done it if Mr.
Baker would have made me, but Mr.

Speaker 1 Baker was a football guy, and he was like, No, you need to be getting your halftime adjustments. We're not going to be doing this.
Mr. Baker knew it, yes.
Yeah, Mr. Baker was good.

Speaker 1 And I also played in the jazz. I was doing tons of extracurriculars in the band.
I think it's hilarious. Nobody else thinks this lies.
Well, nobody thinks it's a lie.

Speaker 1 They just think it's because that's what kids do. It's not, it's like, it's like, it's not even a far-fetched lie.

Speaker 1 like it's not even like you're no but you won't believe this it's like this a bunch of kids have to do that in like a lot of high schools yeah it's just there's a numbers thing going on here

Speaker 1 well i guess that'll be fun there we go all right what else are we talking do you guys talk a little bit of cincinnati matchup with busting with the boys you know it baby you know they're confident they're very confident and also i did realize this we are in like we're in nebraska country out there oh yeah but it's still gonna be it's gonna be and the cornhusters, they uh they travel pretty well.

Speaker 1 I know a lot of people that are travel, it's like a fucking two-hour drive for them, it's three from Omaha, but yeah, right. It's uh, we're we're gonna need to travel too.

Speaker 1 Cats, we're gonna need some people in the stand so it doesn't feel too crazy for our boys on the field, baby. Let's go, it's gonna be ruckus, but that just brings the energy.

Speaker 1 Who cares if it's home away? Who gives a shit? Bear cats are fucking funny.

Speaker 1 What's uh,

Speaker 1 how, how are they saying Rayola looks? Dad, dad was an all-time center for for the Detroit Lions. Very confident.
To be fair, Will does this every year. Doesn't matter

Speaker 1 who their guys are.

Speaker 1 They're going to state. They're winning it all.
Will's a big false confidence guy. I respect the fuck out of it.
I respect it. As you get older in the NFL.
I can see right through it, Will.

Speaker 1 I can see right through it. As you get older in the NFL, when you're young, you kind of hate guys that are like rah-rah bullshit and type.
It's like, well, you shut the fuck up.

Speaker 1 I don't need to hear this right now. I'm just trying to get my day started.
And then as you get older, you're like, God damn, I kind of need that guy. I kind of need to.
Shout out, Nigel. Come on.

Speaker 1 Fire me up. I got zero energy right now.

Speaker 1 Fire me up. Need an energy guy.
No, I respect it. Yeah, it's going to be a fun matchup.
Yes, sir. All right, now let's get to what a lot of the people are waiting for.

Speaker 1 We got out of the house. We did.
That's out of the house is brought to you by American Express, Jason.

Speaker 1 I think we should start with you. Start with us? Okay.
Yeah. The least exciting of the out of the house.

Speaker 1 All right now, Jason, let's get to what happened on the shore this weekend, man. Sure, yeah, sure.
Yes, please.

Speaker 1 And you already know we were both doing our own thing. I was at tight end.

Speaker 1 You, you were, uh, you were at the beer bowl raising a bunch of money for the Eagles Autism Foundation, as you guys always do.

Speaker 1 I swear, so solemnly swear that I will never miss an Eagles Autism at the shore ever again. I had so much FOMO watching all the videos.
It was good. It was a fun time.

Speaker 1 Year five of The Shorebirds is in the books. It looked absolutely epic.
Cooper DeGene, Sydney Brown, Sidney Brown,

Speaker 1 a bunch of familiar faces from the Eagles always showing up. Brandon Graham,

Speaker 1 always a fan favorite out there. For sure.
I didn't see that many videos of Kylie this year.

Speaker 1 We want to know where Kylie was. They're out there.
There's a picture of her flipping me off. Let's see if I can get that one.

Speaker 1 That one I just saw today. I remember it happened.
That makes me happy. That makes me happy.
Yes. I mean, listen,

Speaker 1 everybody knows flip off by someone you love is an endearing thing, right?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Of course it is. Let's start with the Bo Allen bet, though.
I mean, that was the one that went viral. For those of you that don't know about it, Jason, please catch everyone up.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so, I mean, we did, we mentioned this on a previous show, but I think everybody saw the viral moment with the Speedo. We did talk about it in the podcast.

Speaker 1 So Bo Allen and I have been in a weight loss competition for the last three months.

Speaker 1 And the bet was you get two points for every percentage body fat loss and you get one point for every pound of muscle gained.

Speaker 1 Bo Allen in three months lost 2% body fat and he gained four pounds of muscle. I'm rounding for the sake of argument.
So he was roughly close to eight points.

Speaker 1 And I

Speaker 1 lost

Speaker 1 about 3% body fat, but I gained no muscle. I was really like 2.5

Speaker 1 over 2.5% body fat, but i gained no muscle it pretty much stayed flat so

Speaker 1 i lost see that's what people don't understand is people don't understand us kelceies people don't understand us kelseys

Speaker 1 there's still some

Speaker 1 there's still some strength even in our fat oh for sure it's one of the uh things that allowed me to play in the nfl for so long that's what i'm saying i think i'm missing it i think that's one of the reasons i got injured but we'll talk about that in a second

Speaker 1 so anyways i ended up over the course of this whole thing ended up losing close to three percent body fat. And I actually,

Speaker 1 like, I lost, I think, over 10 pounds, right about 9 or 10 pounds of fat. So, ultimately, we're both winners in my book, but I definitely was a loser of the bet.
So, I had to wear a speedo.

Speaker 1 The bet was loser has to wear a speedo at this ocean drive event. Yep.
And for those of you that remember, I didn't think that was enough. Smart by me.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 we talked about maybe adding something else to it. And by far, the most asked thing from our fans was that Jason also get waxed, or that the loser also has to get waxed.

Speaker 1 So the bet ended up being loser has to wear a speedo and get waxed before the OD event. Like, hold on, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, what

Speaker 1 kind of waxing was this? I did a bikini wax. You did a what? A bikini wax.
I did a bikini. And thank God I did, because this thing would have looked so much worse if I wasn't waxed.

Speaker 1 I mean, it would have been even more gross. How was that? I mean, it wasn't fun.
I will say the people at, I'll shout them out, the people at European Wax down in Philadelphia did a great job.

Speaker 1 They made it as comfortable as they could.

Speaker 1 I had a great technician. I had a great technician.

Speaker 1 I'm not going to lie.

Speaker 1 I understand why women do it and

Speaker 1 I understand why some men get it. It's not, it's probably not a thing that I'm going to redo.

Speaker 1 They tried tried to talk me into the Brazilian, which you know what the Brazilian is?

Speaker 1 That's the bikini plus the butt. They do the little butt strip, and I was like, ah, you know.

Speaker 1 Well, they said the butt's actually not as painful. I don't want to do it.
I don't know what it is.

Speaker 1 I don't like anything in that crease. Nothing's been in that crease other than my own hand.
I don't like my drawers.

Speaker 1 I don't like anything in the crease. Yeah, the crease.
That's a no-fly zone for me.

Speaker 1 And Kylie's response, Kylie's response was, Jason, that's the one thing you could have used

Speaker 1 I was trying to think of you know where do I get a spin and then I remembered I had this American flag one I was like you know what let's go patriotic theme got the American flag eagle right on the crotch similar to the pin up

Speaker 1 you I just saw a picture of the wax I just sit in the picture I just sent him the picture of the waxing do you guys want to see the video we should save some for your YouTube page dude this could not see the light of day this cannot see the light of day, dude.

Speaker 1 Oh, it saw the light, Travis. Bro, it's bad.
It's a vulnerable, it's vulnerable positioning. I felt.
I'm not a fan of it. I mean, I am.

Speaker 1 Listen, I'm not trying to knock people that do this because I get it. You look great.
It's for my phone, Travis. My phone to your eyes, brother.
Oh,

Speaker 1 my fucking

Speaker 1 God.

Speaker 1 Jason, I need you to work harder. You need to work harder now.

Speaker 1 That butterfly, the spread eagle is hilarious. I mean,

Speaker 1 so I walk in there.

Speaker 1 Dude, I'm telling you right now, I have no idea what I'm getting myself into. I've never done this.
Obviously, I don't, I've never.

Speaker 1 And I walk in there, and right away, the technician says, okay, remove everything from the waist down. I'm like, excuse me? Like, we just, everything's off.

Speaker 1 And, like, yeah,

Speaker 1 okay.

Speaker 1 Take that off.

Speaker 1 She's, and then

Speaker 1 they say,

Speaker 1 now

Speaker 1 assume the butterfly position. I was like, excuse me? What are we talking about? Nice.
The butterfly, yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So I am filleted open.

Speaker 1 I'm filleted.

Speaker 1 I look like a spatchcock turkey down there on that table. You fillet yourself.
Dude, it was the most vulnerable I've ever felt. But no,

Speaker 1 I think I took it like a man. I will say women have been hyping this up.
They're like, oh, men don't know what we go through. Like, I'm like, listen.

Speaker 1 I got this. I got it.
Ripped your ball sack up. I will say I'd rather play football than have that done any day of the week, for sure.

Speaker 1 Fuck that. I got like one strip of

Speaker 1 chest hair wax when I was in college, and I will never do that ever again. I just want to hear the scream.
Did you scream or did you go, God, dude?

Speaker 1 I just kind of, you know,

Speaker 1 I stayed pretty stone-faced. Purposely, I didn't want to show, I didn't want to give in to what Bo wanted.
I didn't want to show that type of...

Speaker 1 In the inside, I was screaming, though.

Speaker 1 Bo there? No. he would have taken a lot of pictures and they all would have seen the light of day because he has no shame

Speaker 1 he yeah he's hilarious oh man well a man of his word ladies and gentlemen a man of his word very nice listen

Speaker 1 let's get let's get go ahead it helped it helped raise a lot of money raise a lot of awareness for use autism foundation at the end of the day The video went absolutely viral. It went nuts.

Speaker 1 Everybody was laughing their ass off or completely confused at what just happened and why you did that. So there's a mixed clarifying.
There was a lot of mixed reactions.

Speaker 1 The one thing that everybody did see was the girl in the blue shirt.

Speaker 1 I almost took out the person right on the side right there. Yeah.
Duck. Wow.

Speaker 1 Oh my God, a two by four right to the noggin.

Speaker 1 That would have split it.

Speaker 1 Did you, how did you get the pants, the tearaway shorts? I've never seen those. I told you the chubby is the chubby's product.
It's like a one-time, it's like a bundle. I had it at the house.

Speaker 1 They sent it to me to potentially wear it the last one. I was like, I'm definitely not.
Yeah, they sent it. I didn't buy it.
They sent it.

Speaker 1 Chubbies has been good and sponsored the event for a couple of years now. So they always send some options to wear for the event.
Chubbies was both in the shore and tight end you.

Speaker 1 Proud sponsor of tight end. The guy Travis was with you and flew the next day to go to Beer Bowl.
Shout out to Travis. It's a legendary move.
There we go.

Speaker 1 We got to talk about the blue shirt girl just having the time of her life. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Getting a full frontal. I mean, she's directly underneath you, seeing every single square inch of

Speaker 1 the mass. No, no, no.
She's more to the side, honestly. I think this is just shock at the tear away action.

Speaker 1 This is hilarious.

Speaker 1 It was a funny ass reaction. It was fucking hilarious.
It was like so innocent. Sam and I actually got together later in that day and recreated that photo.

Speaker 1 There's a picture of that if you want to try and find that one, Brandon. But yeah, she became an instant meme.
So sorry about that, Sam.

Speaker 1 Hope you're doing good. Again, we got to get back to it.
What did Kylie think of this? She thought it was funny.

Speaker 1 Again, she was upset I didn't get the Brazilian wax because I think she's tired of my hairy ass crack is what I think.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 as far as the speedo, I think she was

Speaker 1 like, oh, just another day at the OD.

Speaker 1 No, the flip-off came after she beat us in Flip Cup.

Speaker 1 It was a more like in-your-face type thing. Yeah.

Speaker 1 She's got to be a pro, man. She is.
Well, we also had Beer Bowl 3 go down at the shore this weekend. You went full send on the first event.
I do. I go full send on all events.

Speaker 1 I'm not a half send kind of guy. I'm either all in or all out.
From somebody just watching it, it just looks like you stumble and you kind of... Did you really fucking hurt yourself on the...

Speaker 1 I definitely have a minor hamstring strain. I'm hoping it's minor.
I still haven't gotten an MRI. I might, I don't know if I should or not.
Well, that's the thing about MRIs.

Speaker 1 Once you're off the league, they're not

Speaker 1 you got to cover it with your insurance. If it was torn, I probably wouldn't be able to be continuing on with the event, and I probably would have felt worse the next day.

Speaker 1 And it just feels like I got a nice little strain. Is it black and blue? It's not black and blue.
It's a little swollen. Oh, you're good then, right? Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 But no, I don't remember when it happened. It definitely happened on that event.
I got a good running start. Brian, we got video footage of this thing.
I got a running start down the dock.

Speaker 1 This is linebacker Jason right here. Yeah,

Speaker 1 I needed the extra fat to help hold this thing together. That's what I'm saying.
But no, everybody was kind of being right next to me. I thought maybe this would be an advantage.
It build up speed.

Speaker 1 And then I was

Speaker 1 out of balance.

Speaker 1 I get right back up, though. Look at this.
Look at that powerful.

Speaker 1 Lap pull down right back up onto the raft. There you go.
I don't know if it was.

Speaker 1 I don't know if it was the initial.

Speaker 1 I think that might have been where it went. It was either there or the initial stumble.
Left or right? Right. So the right kind of got caught and I tried to pull it.
You tried to.

Speaker 1 It was like yourself above the water. So it was either there.

Speaker 1 Or it was

Speaker 1 here. Ah! I don't know.
It was one of those two spots. But immediately after I got off the raft and I was in the shark-infested waters, I realized that my hamstring was either cramping or strained.

Speaker 1 And when it didn't go away, I was like, oh, fuck, I just might have torn my hamstring. Luckily, I'm the only one that got hurt.
There you go. Yeah.
Which is shocking, quite honestly. Yeah.

Speaker 1 When you mix obstacle, wet obstacle courses with alcohol, typically

Speaker 1 you need an EMT on standby. Well, we did.
We had EMTs. We had lifeguards.
We did it in as safe as a way possible.

Speaker 1 Actually, it was a great event.

Speaker 1 I'll tell you who really showed up with a lot of energy. They won that event.
They won multiple events was Cooper DeGene and Sydney Brown.

Speaker 1 They were team takes their shirt off, I think, was their official team name, which, I mean, listen, if I look like that, I probably have my shirt off too. There we go, Sidney.
Chug to start off.

Speaker 1 Oh, God. Gets it going.

Speaker 1 Right over. This is an awful angle, Jake.

Speaker 1 But he is moving. He is moving.
Went right through that thing. I've heard Sidney, by the way, has had an outstanding summer.

Speaker 1 He did really well this year in OTAs and everything. People are excited about him.
Coop, great chug. Great chug.

Speaker 1 Jumps the gap. Jumps the gap.

Speaker 1 He's up. He's over.
And then he's army crawling. Army crawling.
Oh, no. That's going to waste some time.
Oh, God. Oh, God.
No, I think that's the way you have to do it.

Speaker 1 Way to fight. Way to fight it.
They were both competitive as hell. And they beat me and Bo in Flip Cup later in the freaking in the event.
Why the fuck? You're getting whooped by fucking everybody.

Speaker 1 It was a bad showing. Well, I was also hurt at that point, and my morale was down.
Hurt? You had a pulled hammy in flip cup? Get the great Jason. Don't start this.

Speaker 1 Listen, I'm not going to throw Bo under the bus because he's the only reason we made it that far after I pulled my hamstring. I fucking did great in that flip cup game.

Speaker 1 I might have been the best individual performer in the flip cup. I was held down by Bo.
Bo fucked me in flip cup. I'm just going to, listen.
You live and you die as a team. I'm riding with my buddy.

Speaker 1 Everybody's got to hold their end of the bargain, man. I'm riding with my guy, but

Speaker 1 it was an atrocious performance by Honey Bobo.

Speaker 1 We lost by one cup. We had 23, and I flipped 15 of them.

Speaker 1 Do that math for you. Actually, we flipped 22.
22.

Speaker 1 Dude, yeah. No, Bo's gotta, he's gotta go.
He's gotta meet you at least halfway. It can't be just like a quarter of the board.

Speaker 1 You gotta fuck it.

Speaker 1 We gotta, we gotta figure it out, bro. There's one thing Bo did a great job: it was on the grease pole.
Turns out Bo Allen is an expert at navigating grease poles. Let's show this one.

Speaker 1 An expert at navigating

Speaker 1 woo bow.

Speaker 1 It's a good race. It's a good job.
Good job. Was that that was the goal? Is the hit it? Yeah, you had to get to the end of it.
So you get points. And he just said, screw trying to walk.
Trying to run.

Speaker 1 Well, everybody who tried to walk made it like two, two, two feet on, and then they fucking ate shit. So this ended up being like the last three competitors from like Sydney, Bo, and Connor.

Speaker 1 They all figured out if you just like jump and slide on it like a seal, that that's the best strategy. This is him filling the A gap right here.
We might have to, we might have to

Speaker 1 extend this, although I don't know how much further it can extend. I don't know if you want to keep it, yeah, that's that's the diciest one right there.

Speaker 1 Oh, dude, wait till you see some of these guys how they fell on that thing. There were some good falls.

Speaker 1 Shout out to Stone Cold Savages who ended up taking home the win and the $50,000 is Beer Bowl champs. They were the runner-ups from last year,

Speaker 1 and they got it done. $50,000 for for this listen i

Speaker 1 we got to reward these degenerates

Speaker 1 stone cold savages are a great team and it's honestly it's a beautiful story of perseverance it is it's a beautiful story of we're going to get better it is from last year yep and i'm going to take some stone cold savages into this nfl season you should you should let me get a hell yeah hell yeah the full recap of uh beer bowl will be up on my youtube page that's Jason Kelsey at Jason Kelsey.

Speaker 1 I think that's just the name of the YouTube page.

Speaker 1 Nice. I think that's where we're putting it up.
Yeah, we'll let you know when it's ready. All right.
Any final thoughts on year five of the Shorebirds? I mean, it was our most successful one by far.

Speaker 1 Nice.

Speaker 1 We raised over a million dollars in one year. Just two days of fundraising, raised over a million dollars for the Eagles Autism Foundation.

Speaker 1 We had tons of sponsors that were willing to be a part of it. Tons of athletes and celebrities lent their time to guest bartend or participate in Beer Bowl.
Hell yeah. Tons of 92%ers showed up.

Speaker 1 It was, and then just a bunch of Eagles fans. Seele is a special city.
It really is. It's a family-based island that, you know, people are just looking to have a good time.
It's very neighborly.

Speaker 1 It's very community-based.

Speaker 1 So, you know, they show up.

Speaker 1 They've shown up for all the other ones and they showed up for this one. And everybody combined.
We raised a lot of money.

Speaker 1 We raised a lot of money that's going to go a long way for care and research in the autism community. And shout out to Ryan Hammond, the head of Eagles Autism Foundation

Speaker 1 for her involvement. She kind of gets this whole thing going.

Speaker 1 It's a lot of work on her end, especially with all the other events she has to do with Eagles Autism Foundation, but she handles it like an unbelievable professional. And then shout out to Kai.

Speaker 1 Kai also does a lot of lifting on her end to get this thing up and running. It was just a really special event.
It was an awesome couple days.

Speaker 1 And can't wait to go for year five or year six now this next year. That's crazy.

Speaker 1 Shout out to everybody at the shore. It looked absolutely shout out to the Ocean Drive.
Shout out to Seattle. Shout out to OD.
Shout out to the Yacht Club of the Seat Isle City. There you go.

Speaker 1 Shout outs left and right, baby.

Speaker 1 Looked like a blast, and I can't wait to join next year, baby. Thank you to our presenting sponsor and partner, Audible.

Speaker 1 One of my favorites is we stop at the gas station and I clearly know that Jason's not in the car, but I wait until we get onto the freeway to be like, where's Jason?

Speaker 1 Did we leave Jason? Did we leave Jason or is he

Speaker 1 somewhere in the car that I can't see him? I don't know why my head went to this exact story. I don't even remember where we were at, but we were at a rest stop.

Speaker 1 Dude, we're at a rest stop, and you were in that thing gaming it up, dude. You were in that arcade.

Speaker 1 It was a gumball machine, and there were a couple arcades, and I was just playing while everybody was kind of refueling and getting ready to get back on the road. I look up and everybody's gone.

Love a good cheddar brat. Cannot be beat.
So fucking good. The other thing I'm really trying to do this year, I cannot beat her.

Speaker 1 I want to beat Kylie in ribs. I can't do it.
She boils them and then puts them in the oven and it somehow still beats me on the grill.

Speaker 1 let's talk about where you were this weekend which is

Speaker 1 nashville tennessee

Speaker 1 vegas Travis was out of the house at tight end university. Let's start with the football portion, the thing that nobody wants to listen to us talk about.
You had Jeremy Shockey out there this year.

Speaker 1 Jay Shock, baby. Dude, how excited were you to see Jay Shock out there? Are you kidding? It was my first time finally meeting him.
And I had, you know, there's certain guys that made this position

Speaker 1 what it is today. For sure.
They made it fun. They made it exciting.
Guys that bring personalities to football, and you can latch on to that.

Speaker 1 Shocky made everybody love the fact, love like seeing a tight end with the ball in his hand just running motherfuckers. It was electric.
It was electric. That shit's infectious.

Speaker 1 That's the guy that you want on your team. Through my entire like life of meeting my heroes in the NFL, he's another one where it's just like, as soon as he's in the room, he ignites the room.

Speaker 1 He's here to like talk to you about just anything, anything you have to ask for him. He's willing to, you know, spit the gospel on.

Speaker 1 And it was just cool to finally meet him, knowing that through the grapevine, everyone had said nothing but amazing things about him yeah throughout his entire career man that's awesome you also had uh the browns tight end tried a happy yilmore swing what's what's this let's take a look at this i mean listen he full sent it this is a big much bigger windup than happy yilmore has done before you got to staying closer to the ball you got to get closer to the ball happy did not have that far

Speaker 1 No, he took like maybe one step, maybe two steps into a crow hop. You can't take a run and start like that.
It's just

Speaker 1 everyone knows in golf, you got to eliminate variables and that there's just too many variables for that one that's a good send though i listen that's a full send i respect the out of it yeah well well done brendan bates uh theo vought out there running routes how does theo look um i'm not gonna lie i saw theo the night before i didn't even see him out there on the field jason what you have to understand is that tight end you is um it's just a good reason to get good people around and uh and have some fun maybe talk some ball if you're into that who's ding them up here who's Ding them up?

Speaker 1 It looks like

Speaker 1 I can't even tell the fucking screen. Look at that stance, though.

Speaker 1 Yeah, right? Look at that fucking stance.

Speaker 1 Oh, my gosh. Oh, oh,

Speaker 1 oh, oh. Not terrible.
Not terrible. Oh, jumped.

Speaker 1 Too early on the jump.

Speaker 1 You got to watch out, man. Those hammies, baby.
Dude, absolutely hilarious. So

Speaker 1 we only did one field day this year.

Speaker 1 We have too much goddamn fun in the evenings that going back out onto the field hung over for two hours in 95 97 degree heat just you know we'll we'll do one good day of work and then uh and then throw some parties raise some money and have some fun i think uh i think

Speaker 1 we finally kind of found the perfect mix of like hanging out, talking, ball, as well as putting in some work. Every single day, we got workouts up at Vanderbilt.

Speaker 1 Guys are definitely getting in the works knowing that, you know, we got the season coming up in less than a month or we're going to training camp in less than a month. And it's just good.

Speaker 1 What people don't understand about the tight end position is that we're the I got you guy, whatever you need guy.

Speaker 1 We're the guy that will block the guys that are bigger than us, we'll run routes against the guys that are smaller than us. And whatever position they put us in, we're expected to

Speaker 1 get our shit done, get our job done, as everyone is on the field. But we get put in more situations than most.
And that means we naturally just have a selfless mentality and

Speaker 1 I'm here for you, whatever you need type of mentality and like vibes. And it's everybody across the entire like NFL, you figure this out and it just makes tight end you so much fucking fun.
Right.

Speaker 1 Because everybody's there to just have a good time. Nobody's there thinking, you know, too big of themselves or like they don't want to share their secrets.

Speaker 1 Everyone's here to help out each other and make sure that you're spreading the word on how you got to where you are.

Speaker 1 And sometimes it's just hearing somebody's story and hearing how they even got into the tight end position.

Speaker 1 And yeah, it was awesome, man. Just another

Speaker 1 amazing year. Shout out to Rubicon.
Shout out to everybody at the Thompson Hotel and all the sponsors.

Speaker 1 It was a fun one, man. It looked like a lot of fun.
And actually, speaking of ball, they got some a clip here. You talking a little bit of ball.
What are you teaching in this clip? You know,

Speaker 1 I got to switch it up. Mitchell Schwartz called me out on this.
And He's got such a good point.

Speaker 1 Don't get me wrong. These are fundamentals that

Speaker 1 I like to work these fundamentals.

Speaker 1 Let's play the clip. Brandon, what are we doing? I don't want to listen to myself, man.
Fuck.

Speaker 1 Take your headphones off. A lot of other people like listening to you.
All right. Go ahead.

Speaker 2 Hey, guys,

Speaker 2 it's so hard for us to just throw one foot in the ground going

Speaker 2 75% speed in a route to get out of there, right? So we want to use two steps.

Speaker 1 If you can get two, if sometimes I'm not talking about shit, it's so hard

Speaker 2 if you're lucky enough to run them.

Speaker 1 But it's

Speaker 1 turning into words. I know exactly what you're talking about.

Speaker 2 You have to slow that momentum down and really gather that power so that you can explode out.

Speaker 1 I'm trying to talk physics, and I just don't.

Speaker 1 I need to start breaking in

Speaker 1 Newton's laws of motion in the direction that I want to go.

Speaker 2 Don't always want to understep. I do that a lot, unfortunately.
But

Speaker 2 if I get to choose what I'm doing, I'm going in at a powerful position. That means if a defender's on me,

Speaker 2 I'm still strong getting out of that thing. You know what I mean? Like, I can gain separation.
And it's hard to gain separation if you don't go in at a controlled pace.

Speaker 2 So really work and find that shoulder over toe.

Speaker 2 And you can get in and out of there precise and with a

Speaker 2 purposeful, like powerful

Speaker 2 foundation.

Speaker 1 I mean, what do you talk about? It seems like that all makes sense. What are you talking about? Yeah, I mean, what did you not like about that? What did you not like about that?

Speaker 1 I just don't like how I talk. It's hard when you're hungover to like be like

Speaker 1 articulate and say the right things while you're running. Like typically when you're working out, you're not like speaking at a loud value.

Speaker 1 Like I do, it felt like I was holding my breath the entire time. Yeah.
I will say this, though. Big guys, we need to go in at a controlled space or a controlled pace to come out at an explosive pace.

Speaker 1 You know what I mean? So it's like we want to go in control so we can come out explosive. And that's basically what I was talking about.

Speaker 1 You don't want to go in slow, but you want to go in controlled because the moment you're going to get open comes in how quickly you can get out of that break, right?

Speaker 1 And how much you can make going into that break look like you're going to keep moving forward. This honestly reminds me of like the 20-yard shuttle.
That's a drill that people do for the combine.

Speaker 1 I don't want to brag about myself.

Speaker 1 You got the fastest time in O-line history, but regardless, if you try that drill, you basically start in the the middle, you run five yards this way, change direction, five yards this, 10 yards that way, change direction, you go back to where you started, right?

Speaker 1 Yeah. So you're changing direction twice.
That drill is all technique, but keep going. Correct.
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 If you try and run that drill full speed and just run it, you are going to run a slower time than if you run it controlled with proper technique.

Speaker 1 If you hit the proper steps and you do everything right, your time will be faster than if you just run it like Leroy

Speaker 1 Jenkins. You're going to run a slower time.
You're going to look fast, but you're going to run a slow time. That's just how it works.

Speaker 1 And I think route running, the best route runners I know are smooth because they're controlled.

Speaker 1 They can make it look like they're running top end speed, but at the same time, they know they can put their foot in the ground and change direction.

Speaker 1 I think you were talking about that from like a tight ends perspective. Like wide receivers can do it in one step.

Speaker 1 The best can, right? They can like be running full speed and all of a sudden put their foot in the ground and go.

Speaker 1 Tight ends, because you're bigger, you got to be more cognizant of being able to get out of that break because you have more weight behind it and the more steps you do the more slowing down that you do it's buying time for the defender to read that and react to you changing direction is this yeah that's what you were saying essentially right essentially exactly it's exactly what i'm saying and if i try and keep if i'm if whatever i'm doing is i'm always trying to stay in that controlled space You'll see me sometimes raise up, but anytime I raise up, I have to come back down to get back into that controlled space.

Speaker 1 Sometimes raising up and then coming back down plays with my tempo, which can throw somebody off. Sometimes it gives the illusion that, you know, it's a timing factor.

Speaker 1 It gives the illusion that I'm doing something else that I'm really focused on doing or I'm just like kind of lulling somebody to sleep.

Speaker 1 But at the if I'm running a full speed route, I want to stay in that like F1 car like zone. I don't want to airplane up.

Speaker 1 If I stay in that F1 car, now my shoulders, my core, that squat position that we're always trying to get to in the weight room, now I can transfer that onto the field and use my power and use my in-steps and use the ability to, you know, all the power that we have at the tight end position.

Speaker 1 I can use that going in and out of breaks. Let me ask you this.
That's the base fundamentals. How much after you get those base fundamentals, do you, as a, as a route runner, use raising and lowering?

Speaker 1 You talked about understepping, like cutting on the outstep. Like, I think that, like, here's, here's my issue with coaches that teach positions is they want it all to always look the exact same.

Speaker 1 You go, you put your foot here, and like the best route runners, they, they're playing a game with the defender.

Speaker 1 Like, you can raise and lower your position to make the defender think you're about to cut and then just keep going straight.

Speaker 1 You can all of a sudden cut off the wrong foot if you know the grass and the footing is good. And that will throw the defender off because they get used to these like timing.

Speaker 1 They get used to a three-step slant, right?

Speaker 1 They know one, two, three, he's going in. 10 yards.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 They know it's third and 10.

Speaker 1 This is where I truly feel like you are so much better. And I don't mean to throw shade on any other tight end at tight end university.

Speaker 1 This is the level of intricacy that I think you have that a lot of other people that, especially play tight end, some of other receivers have this instinct.

Speaker 1 And I don't know if it's because you play basketball or what it is, but it feels like you have a way of manipulating your steps, your body language.

Speaker 1 I used to say you have gumby knees. Your knees are always inside your toes.
So it's like, which way is he about to go? He can go either way. It's not giving it away.
I'm getting on those in-steps.

Speaker 1 That was actually one of Evan Ingram's big notes this year at Tight End U. And I'm big on using all in steps and the outsteps of routes, but you hear me say

Speaker 1 I don't like it when I undercut or I understep. But at the same time, if I'm at a controlled space, if I'm knees

Speaker 1 over toes, and I get all, I have good ankle flexibility too. So it's like I can get on those outside edges and still be at a controlled

Speaker 1 balanced place. Yes.
But

Speaker 1 as long as I'm not tall and trying to go on the outside. As long as you're not on balance doing it.
Like that's what it comes out of. The biggest thing is getting to that F1, finding where you

Speaker 1 like reside in that F1 car. Like I said 75% speed.

Speaker 1 When I was really at my peak athleticism, I could go 85%

Speaker 1 like speed and still be able to bend and turn and get in and out of a break and that thing and that kind of stuff.

Speaker 1 But at the same time, I can always, if I'm 85 and I'm still in that F1 car, I can take off and get to 100. You know what I mean? So it's like, I can play with tempo.

Speaker 1 I can play with getting in and out of breaks. And then when you add in the mental aspect of, you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 understanding all the route concepts, understanding all the defense, like now you can actually now you can attack with precision. Right.
You know what I mean? And it's a purposeful movement.

Speaker 1 It's it's IDing the defense and having a plan and having these instinctual plans kind of set in place so that you can just play fast. Absolutely.

Speaker 1 Let's get to what everybody else wants to talk about as listen to the show.

Speaker 1 There was a surprise guest at tight end university. I don't know if she's surprised, but it's a surprise to everybody on Twitter.
Special guest

Speaker 1 Taylor. Taylor showed up to tight end university.
How did it

Speaker 1 showed up? Yeah, we, I mean, you already know it's. How did this come about? We're in Nashville.
She grew up in Nashville. She moved there when she was younger.

Speaker 1 And yeah,

Speaker 1 we had this plan for a while that we were going to have some fun with the tight ends, especially tight ends and friends, all the evening events. I'll say this.

Speaker 1 I won't say when the idea came up, but when we were there at tight end and friends and we knew that there was a professional like Kane Brown who could just, he could figure it out. He's a pro.

Speaker 1 He's been on stage a million times. He's not like, he's not shy at all by any means.
He's a true professional.

Speaker 1 Tay just kind of went up to him and the band and just was like, hey, if you guys are down, like I'll go up there, play a song and see if we can, you know. pop the roof off this place.

Speaker 1 And sure enough, she's such, she's so good with just everybody, just people and making people feel comfortable in it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And absolutely rocked the stage yet again. It was awesome, man.
Well, she killed it. She shook it off for sure.
She shook down the roof. That's for damn sure.

Speaker 1 It was a surprise. Everybody didn't see coming.
I know I didn't. I'm over here checking her.
I'm like, what the hell? Tays up on stage? How'd this happen? How'd they get her to go up there?

Speaker 1 That's amazing.

Speaker 1 She was like in the back doing like...

Speaker 1 musical notes for like the band like yeah like sheets of music she was just like kind of like writing out like i think the hi-hats maybe i don't know i'm not a musician but she was like making sure that the band and everybody knew everybody was on it.

Speaker 1 Everybody was just, you know, yeah, and then just went out there without practicing and it was pitch perfect and just killed it. That's cool, very cool.
It was awesome, man. What up?

Speaker 1 Was this your first time in an event sponsored by Dude Wipes?

Speaker 1 It has to be the first and only, I would assume. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Dude wipes. Dude Wipes got it.
Yeah, they got a good one right there. They got a good one.
You guys killed it. Tight end you, probably the most traction I've seen it get for multiple reasons.

Speaker 1 It's getting so freaking good, George. And I'd say I have to show love to George and Greg.
Those two guys, Rubicon, the Kittle family, Claire for hosting the significant others side of things.

Speaker 1 It's just, it's so much fun being around that group, and it's really starting to become a family. And man, it's year in, year out, man.
If

Speaker 1 I, I could never see myself not doing this. So we got we got to tie the shore and tight end you up a little bit better so that I can get you out there.
I got to get you out there. I would love to go.

Speaker 1 I don't know what I'm going to do at tight end you. I got to see you in Clease.
No, I just got to see. I got to see the footwork, see if you're coachable.

Speaker 1 We got to see some things. I could have played tight end.
No doubt. That's what I'm saying.
And I see the frame right now as a 265 frame. For sure.
That's a tight end kind of frame.

Speaker 1 I got to see what this looks like in routes and everything. I would not have to do that.

Speaker 1 I want to see if the hockey edges translated with you like they did with me. Well, that's how I got.
How do you think I got the highest, the lowest 20-yard shuttle time? Yeah, that's all I got to do.

Speaker 1 Yours is

Speaker 1 hockey stop. That's right.
Hockey stop. Everybody else is like, oh, stay on your insteps.
I'm like, that's the dumbest thing I ever heard.

Speaker 1 I can be on the outside of this foot and the inside of this one.

Speaker 1 I maximize my force.

Speaker 1 Shin angle. You guys don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
The first night at tight end you is always the welcoming night. And we ended up getting, we ended up having a time.

Speaker 1 Just everyone's got an Aperol Spritz or a Spritz in their hand. Spritz.
It was, it was a sounds like a major league party. Oh,

Speaker 1 Greg Olson's favorite. I had about 30 of them.
Greg Olson's favorite drink is a Spritz. Don't put this man on blast like that.
No, he loved. There ain't no shame in that man's game.

Speaker 1 Are you kidding me? It's Greg fucking Olson. Life of the party, baby.
Was he wearing Speedos too? No.

Speaker 1 If he does, he doesn't wax. That's for sure.

Speaker 1 Or if he does, he gets the full Brazilian.

Speaker 1 My bad, Greg. He did this, Craig.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so we're all enjoying Spritzers and we end up at Aldean's and we're up till the crack of dawn just having a blast, being around each other.

Speaker 1 And then I go in the next day and at 10 a.m., I got to give like a 30-minute, like

Speaker 1 basically seminar on route running. And it's so hard.
Like, I got to stop. I got to stop getting hammered before these things, man, because I'm just, I feel like I'm not stretching anyone.

Speaker 1 I'm not connecting to anyone.

Speaker 1 Man, it was hilarious, man. So hopefully the tight ends are getting something out of it, both

Speaker 1 entertainment-wise, having a good time with the boys and

Speaker 1 the families involved. But at the same time, hopefully the guys that could use the takeaway with the football knowledge are getting a lot of it.

Speaker 1 Dude, before we get out of the out of the house segment uh you had a golf outing and again i i so solemnly swear i will never miss this ever i'd have to be at the golf outing golf is like kind of my secondary thing right now i'm getting good wow it was all scheduled at the same time of uh tight end you but yeah how was it It was fantastic.

Speaker 1 It was the hottest day

Speaker 1 in Philadelphia. It was actually, if it would have broken 100, it'd been the eighth time this millennia that it was over 100.
Golf and the heat is tough, man.

Speaker 1 Might be one of the reasons I lost a bow, if I'm being honest, because I sweat so much and dehydrated myself so much. And a lot of the Dex scan comes down to how hydrated you are.

Speaker 1 And I had it done the next day. Just go throw it out there.
Just go throw it out there. Don't too bad.
Just being honest. Just being honest.
Don't too bad. How'd you play? I played terrible.

Speaker 1 I mean, legitimately atrocious. I don't know what it is.
My swing has been messing me.

Speaker 1 It's better. Like when you watch the swing, it's better, but I'm just not playing as well.
I'm not playing as well. I don't know what it is.
Be an athlete out there.

Speaker 1 Overall, outside of that, it was a freaking amazing event. Nice.
Kingsford was a major sponsor. They donated a bunch of money to put it on.
Jess Priles came and cooked

Speaker 1 over like 50 Tomahawk steaks. I was told from multiple people.

Speaker 1 I was told from multiple people. It was the best food they have ever had at a golf outing.
There was a Esposito, like pork, I think was the name of the.

Speaker 1 The pork guys. I don't know.
The food was just incredible, though. Jess, Kingsford, the entire team, everyone there killed it.

Speaker 1 I think Roland Green, the course that it was at, they all did an outstanding job. And overall, we grossly raised, I don't know how much minus expenses.

Speaker 1 I don't know how to balance a budget, but we raised over $400,000 for the B-Philly Foundation. That's it.
Dude, we killed it. We killed it.
That's a week of fucking foundation

Speaker 1 raising right there.

Speaker 1 I mean, through the B-Philly event. which raised over $400,000 plus

Speaker 1 for my foundation, B-Philly, that supports uh inner city kids education uh and other foundations that are doing good work with kids and families in Philadelphia and then also with the uh ego's autism foundation events down at the shore like all together in one week we were able to raise 1.5 million dollars roughly for charities god damn that's awesome man and it's all possible because of outstanding people that came to support multiple companies that sponsored these events tons of people buying the foursomes we got drone bettis freaking one drone Bettis.

Speaker 1 Dude.

Speaker 1 I got to see him out of Tahoe. See what that Swain's looking like, man.
Dude, having the bus at the event. Cece Zabathia.

Speaker 1 Cece.

Speaker 1 Cece was there. It was like all of my childhood heroes.
Yeah. Some legends from growing up.
It was an awesome event. A lot of people showed up and braved the elements.

Speaker 1 It was pretty ridiculous. Also had a trick shot artist, Dan Beaver.
We're going to have that video coming up soon, but dude hit a drone mid-air

Speaker 1 like off a tee and not like on accident, was aiming at it. Sign him up.
Outing was a lot of fun. Shout out to Rolling Green, Kingsford, all of our sponsors.
Shout out to Dan Beaver. And

Speaker 1 the Philadelphia fan base, man. Everybody out there in Philly, man.

Yeah, thanks. Sorry I was late.
I couldn't get my shit together this morning.

Speaker 1 He's the two-time winner of People's Sexiest Man. He's robbed probably about 50 times.
He's roofies of gross over 8.8 billion worldwide. Who's going to be a star?

Speaker 1 A fight club, Moneyball, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Igoris Masters, Ocean's Levin now. F1 the movie.
We got him. Brad Pitt.
That's right, baby. Woo!

Speaker 1 Thank you so much. What a pleasure.
Oh, my gosh. This is awesome.
This is awesome. How did we get you here, Brad? I don't know how this happens.

Speaker 1 This is the biggest probably A-list celebrity we've ever gotten. I don't know.
How'd we get here? You got up damn early. That's how.

Speaker 1 By the way, I'm fans of you guys. So this is this intrigue for me.
Awesome. Well, thank you so much for joining us.

Speaker 1 Let's kick it off with F1. I know we just watched the movie.
Man, this thing is electric. And I got to say, I'm going to be honest, straight up out front, I'm not the biggest F1 fan.

Speaker 1 Travis owns an F1 team.

Speaker 1 This will make you

Speaker 1 fucking hype about F1. Just recently in general.
This is the only thing.

Speaker 1 Well, you get a badass dude that, like,

Speaker 1 to come in and just create that team chemistry. A lot of people may see F1 from the outside as just the driver and his car and everything like that, man.

Speaker 1 But you make it a whole family experience, like that team camaraderie experience, man. And your character is absolutely badass.
So it's definitely a movie for everybody, man. It reels you in, dude.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's a team of like 500 people. I mean, they got a whole NASA space control back at headquarters who are even running strategies in live time while the race is going.

Speaker 1 It is definitely a team sport.

Speaker 1 You bought into Alpine, right? Yeah, I'm in Alpine, baby. I'm in Alpine right now.
You guys got some work ahead of you.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, you already know.

Speaker 1 We just got to get that wind tunnel. You know what I mean? We got to get all our

Speaker 1 cars aerodynamics together, man. I like it, man.
I like it. That's the cool thing about the movie is that

Speaker 1 it gives you a cool

Speaker 1 view into the F1 world that

Speaker 1 you really don't see from from the outside like the like people don't really understand how many tires you get and how many you know how much time you get on in the wind tunnel and you get to like I don't know manipulate the car so that you get like a tenth of a second faster you know it's it's so it's so fascinating once you get into it yes and we you know we were only you know skipping along the surface the the like i said the strategies these guys go through the development of these cars the adjustments of camber of tires and front wing by millimeters and back.

Speaker 1 It's like, it's a science that is so far beyond me. But the movie, I think, does a great job of

Speaker 1 still talking intelligent enough to hardcore F1 fans, and they are hardcore like us with football. Yes.
Like around the globe, it's a religion.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 it's still very inviting to. to people who are not familiar with the sport.
So I think that's our biggest achievement here, besides being just great fun. For sure.

Speaker 1 That was one of the things I was going to say. It has just enough of the technical side that a dumbass like me who knows nothing could kind of follow.

Speaker 1 I'm kind of getting this here. All right, this is cool.
I also just love Hayes' whole vibe. With F1, I always think of it in this world of almost elite racing status.

Speaker 1 This is the best of the best, but it's got this high-class level to it. And Hayes comes in here, you know, he's driving in a freaking van.

Speaker 1 He was serving time as a taxicab driver. You spoke volumes to Jason Kelsey.

Speaker 1 You spoke to me. This is what I want to see.
I want to see a guy go in there.

Speaker 1 I want someone living out of their van to go into F1. That's what I need.

Speaker 1 This dude, Jason, was literally the first five years of his career in Philadelphia was considering buying a boat and just living on the dock in the Delaware. That's right.

Speaker 1 Kylie Nixon. I had this romantic idea when I first started.
I was going to drive

Speaker 1 18-wheelers. I was going to drive them half the year and stick to my roots.
Yes.

Speaker 1 And like, get into film the other half. And, well, we know what went out.

Speaker 1 You never got into 18-wheelers, though? No. That long haul was a lot more work than I

Speaker 1 thought.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Have you always been into cars? Like, are you just a car guy? I've always been into bikes. I mean,

Speaker 1 I do have in my DNA that,

Speaker 1 you know, that redneck gene that, you know, likes

Speaker 1 motorbikes and barbecues. And, you know, we would ride anything, anything we could ride, we would get on it.
So wheels were always a thing. But later in life, I really got into bikes.

Speaker 1 And Moto GP, I'm a fanatic for for decades since the McDuin days. But now there just weren't enough races.

Speaker 1 Now then I had, then I got into F1, you know, around the Vettel era, probably into Lewis. And now I'm into Indy, and there's still not enough races, so I got to get into NASCAR.

Speaker 1 There you go. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Well, that's where the barbecue vibe is. You want to get back to those redneck roots.
There's plenty of that in NASCAR.

Speaker 1 Someone pointed out, it was really interesting.

Speaker 1 This never occurred to me, but NASCAR, our love for NASCAR comes from

Speaker 1 our history with bootlegging. That's right.
And running the cops. That's pretty badass.
That's one of the coolest things I like about NASCAR is the history of that.

Speaker 1 And like, all of the old legends were bootleggers. Like, that's how the whole sports originated.
and that's

Speaker 1 who doesn't love running from the cops that's our one of our past our greatest pastimes running from the police

Speaker 1 one where it's so elegant and proper and you know NASCAR they'll still they'll scrap it out you know they'll they'll get down and dirty oh yeah they'll still throw some bows

Speaker 1 good fun one of the other things uh with the movie is you're an old grizzled veteran right you've been around and there's so much i'm sure with travis and i were honestly with football where all these young guys come in, they're on their phones, they're on the apps, and like the landscape has changed, even just in that, you know, 13 years that we've been in.

Speaker 1 I don't know, it was just very relatable for us watching that as a veteran football player.

Speaker 1 For you, was it easy to tag into that being an actor and seeing like how the whole world has changed with movies? Like, was there some type of relatability there for you just in terms of that?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, I first had to suck up a lot of old man jokes. It was fair enough.

Speaker 1 That charming motherfucker.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, it's interesting. I like watching what the new generations are coming in with.

Speaker 1 I like to see what they're up against and also the way they negotiate their way through it. I think, I feel like they enjoy it more.
We were a little more uptight and had to be about acting.

Speaker 1 You didn't sell out. You didn't sell out.
You didn't sell out. And now it's this thing of,

Speaker 1 hey, man, we can be artists in many different arenas. So

Speaker 1 let's do it and let's enjoy it. Absolutely.
Absolutely.

Speaker 1 But this idea, they also get caught up in like, have to have a franchise or have to have a superhero or something like that, which I keep going, don't, don't. They will die.

Speaker 1 They will work you to death.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 1 That's awesome.

Speaker 1 In terms of your like training for the, for F1, has, has getting like an understanding of the car and everything like that and and and relating it to all the movies that you've done in the past in terms of like the fighting stuff and like just getting ready and understanding I don't know your role how was this like different from uh movies like fight club or or anything you've done in the past dude well fight club we were just like riffing you know we weren't supposed to be like

Speaker 1 have any idea we knew what we're doing which which fit me and edward just fine that's amazing but this one oh man i mean we got we got in the cars four months, I think, four months before.

Speaker 1 By the end of it all, we'd been driving these cars for two years. I think they said we put 6,000 miles in the seat.
Holy shit. These things, it is shocking what these cars can do.
It is shocking.

Speaker 1 And ours, I've been in an F1 a couple of times now, but ours is

Speaker 1 a

Speaker 1 chopped F2 made to with a Mercedes-Arrow package, made to look like F1.

Speaker 1 And we're still, my point is, we're not even pulling the G's. Those guys are pulling.
and these are heroines. You cannot believe what the cars can do.

Speaker 1 You cannot believe the first time you get in it, that you can be you can be barreling down at 180 at a brick wall and hit the brakes at the 80-yard marker and make a right turn, you know, slow down to 50.

Speaker 1 It's like it's shocking. Holy crap! Shocking.
You go around these high-speed corners, they tell you, you just can't believe you'll stick.

Speaker 1 You feel like you're going to go rolling off into the ethers, and they stick.

Speaker 1 And you're in this, it's just the most sublime feeling i've ever ever felt ever these guys that's crazy like 140 miles an hour and it's unbelievable it just wants to rip your head off your shoulders and somehow you just hang on

Speaker 1 was just trust the car trust the car trust the car and yeah little by little you know by the end of it we got proficient yeah those are some of my favorite shots when you're freaking barreling down at something and you're like basically playing chicken with yourself you're like oh man like how long can i hold this off how long can i hold this off It's crazy.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's pretty awesome. Like I said, did you have somebody in the F1 world? Go ahead.
Yeah, we had a, yeah, we had a, we had, I mean, F1 opened the doors for us.

Speaker 1 It was really getting, Joe Kaczynski, our director, was really smart. His first thing when he had this idea was to go get Lewis Hamilton.
Yeah. And Lewis, as producer, Sir Lewis.

Speaker 1 Sir Lewis, man, that man's knowledge is. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I have yet to see the end of that man's knowledge. He opened the door for us to get us in.

Speaker 1 It's crazy. F1 was really gracious with us.
All the teams, the team principals, all the drivers, we would go in, talk to the drivers' meetings, tell them what we aim to do. I mean,

Speaker 1 it's audacious. It's unprecedented.
You're going to take actors, put them in real cars on real tracks, and embed us through the race calendar. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I mean, like, you couldn't do it with football. We just, there's just no way to do it, you know? Like on Internet, Sunday, they had to make up an imaginary team.

Speaker 1 They couldn't embed themselves with you guys. Yeah.
It's like,

Speaker 1 it's just, it's crazy. The first time we went driving out in front on a race weekend, on quality weekend, we have it all rehearsed.
Everything's got to go right.

Speaker 1 We got to prove it that we don't cock up the system so we can continue to do this. And I go out in front of 100,000 people and my comms go down and I'm driving blind.
I mean, driving deaf. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 And somehow we got through that. And then we have our first thing on the grid.
All the cars getting ready to take off for their formation lap. We got 10 minutes to do our scene.

Speaker 1 We do our scene, and our cars are supposed to take off. And one dies, and the guys scrambling

Speaker 1 off the track before by the time Max Verstappen is coming back around to get ready for the race stars. So we had our home.

Speaker 1 It worked. It worked in the end.
Yeah, that's crazy. God damn, that's insane.
Let me ask you this: you've done a racing movie now, you've done baseball.

Speaker 1 The scenes in this are so well shot, and it's just a very cinematic movie. It's just really well done.
What is the most cinematic sport?

Speaker 1 Well, if you could do any of it, do you want to do other sport movies? Are you happy with baseball and racing? And that's it?

Speaker 1 I love a sports movie.

Speaker 1 When they work, God,

Speaker 1 they just, you know,

Speaker 1 absolutely. I look back at Gene Hackman and Hoosiers and

Speaker 1 Breadford and the natural, you know, you get that. There's even something more.

Speaker 1 Like sports, for me, like even one game is an entire lifetime. And you see, we watch you guys, we watch your fate.
We watch how you deal with adversity, how you fight through it.

Speaker 1 And it's really an amazing metaphor for a lifetime. And when we get it right in these sports movies, and I felt like we really got it right in Moneyball in a lovely.

Speaker 1 beautiful way to add to that lexicon.

Speaker 1 And I think this one does too on a really big level because the racing is it's probably the most visceral racing experience you'll ever have but like all great sports movies when they're great there's also a story there there's also a

Speaker 1 you're moved by it you know you're

Speaker 1 and we're funny as yeah for sure yeah so we got that to deliver it but but this kind of spiritual ending to it all i'm really proud about Absolutely.

Speaker 1 Yeah, the best sports movies, The Sport is almost like a background for these metaphors and things that are so relatable to what you're saying.

Speaker 1 Life and everybody has played sports and they've gone through this. So when you're watching it, when I'm watching this movie, I'm getting goosebumps because you've been in these situations before.

Speaker 1 Maybe not, I haven't been in an F1 car, but I've been in situations like that. Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. Everybody thinks back to that.
And it like, it makes you so much more into it.

Speaker 1 I was about to say, when you're flying at the end of the movie, that's the feeling that I get when that ball is in the air and I'm chasing it and it just gets death.

Speaker 1 And you could just, you feel in that moment of and it slow it slows down it feels like the ball is going

Speaker 1 like

Speaker 1 it's just a crazy feeling and I was sitting in I was sitting here watching the the end of the that race and I'm just like

Speaker 1 I felt like I was flying with you dude it was awesome you guys did an unbelievable job of grasping that no that I mean that is and of course we live you know we live vicariously through you guys we you know our teams like I knew when the sooner's lost I did not talk to my dad for three days that's just like just stay clear.

Speaker 1 Yeah, right?

Speaker 1 That's the time to ask for an allowance, car, whatever you want, man. It's the same thing.
I feel the same. And, you know, you know, you know, I love, I love the Eagles-Chiefs rivalry.

Speaker 1 You know, I'm a Chiefs. I'm a Missouri boy.
I'm an Ozarky.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 We got you this year, dog. We got you this year, man.
I got you, man.

Speaker 1 We don't.

Speaker 1 I'll let you down. I'll let you down.

Speaker 1 Like, that's what I mean about life. You know, life, life throws these struggles your way.
Sometimes everything's falling into place and

Speaker 1 everything goes quiet and it's perfection, it's sublime. And other days or other periods, life throws these struggles at you.

Speaker 1 And it's how you deal with those and come back from those, I think, that are what makes sports movies so special. But

Speaker 1 I do have a confession. You know, I'm friends with Bradley Cooper.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 He's your Prime Eagles fan. That's right.
And I'm not saying

Speaker 1 that I have the power to

Speaker 1 affect a game in any way.

Speaker 1 I don't adhere to that kind of hubris. But I did say last year, after the Eagles went out,

Speaker 1 Chiefs were on their way to another victory.

Speaker 1 And he was getting an award for the Maestro, still probably one of the best movies of this decade. And I was giving him this award.
And he's been nominated like 18 times for Oscars.

Speaker 1 And I closed with, now, did you guys hear this one? No.

Speaker 1 No. No, no, no, dude.
I'm talked dead right now. At the Santa Barbara Film Awards, I closed with, listen, he's been nominated the 1,9th, 100th time.
You know, if he doesn't get it, it's okay.

Speaker 1 He's used to it. He's a Philadelphia Eagles fan.

Speaker 1 That laid the ground right there.

Speaker 1 I think he was happy this year. No doubt.
Oh, you already know. We didn't talk for two months.
Did he hit you up about it? Did he after the Super Bowl? Did he shoot you text? No,

Speaker 1 he gracefully let me hurt

Speaker 1 Pro movie. He just let it sit there and burn.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 That's too funny, man. Well, let's talk Chiefs Kingdom.
You just said you grew up a Chiefs fan.

Speaker 1 How has the last decade been? Has this been the pinnacle of Chiefs fans?

Speaker 1 I mean, we had, you know, we had St. Louis Cardinals at one time.

Speaker 1 They were the only ones in my childhood who, baseball, who really, well, that's not true.

Speaker 1 The the royals were landing too but football we were a little we were a little weaker and it wasn't till devin hester years where things got exciting for a moment there and and yeah and now not till dynasty yeah

Speaker 1 we really like you know you feel this sense of you just feel this sense of pride instead of this sense of like oh life's out you know always against us so it's it's just it's kind of extraordinary the way we live through our teams through you guys and what it what it means to us and do you remember the Wild World of Sports?

Speaker 1 You guys are probably too young for it, but they used to, what it was, they would talk, they always ended with something about success, and then they would show an image of that, and then

Speaker 1 they would end with, and the agony of defeat, and just a guy who just wipes out on the long ski jump. And I always, I just think of life that way, and each weekends that way.

Speaker 1 And goddamn, thanks, thank God for our sports. There we go.
Hell yeah, baby.

Speaker 1 That's pretty big, man.

Speaker 1 So. Travis, shut up, Brett.
Sucking. I just want you wearing oven mitts till the season starts, my friend.

Speaker 1 Keep your hands ready. Come on, baby.
Come on, baby. These things are nice.

Speaker 1 Yes. Protect those babies.
Protect those babies. All right.
Keep these things nice and warm.

Speaker 1 We got to get you back to Arrowhead, big dog. Come on, man.
Have you ever been to a Chiefs game in Casey? You know, I never like...

Speaker 1 No, I never have. I never have.

Speaker 1 I think in

Speaker 1 the aughts, I was really pushing for the Saints after Katrina and that Drew Brees era and Sean Payton. And I love seeing them win at that time.

Speaker 1 I had a home there. I was spending a lot of time there.
Hell yeah. But

Speaker 1 okay, this is the year then. There we go.
Let's get it out. We never went to any Cleveland's games growing up.
I don't know what I feel like you're growing up. You got so much going on.

Speaker 1 But yeah, I know you're a big New Orleans guy. That'd be awesome down there on Bourbon Street.

Speaker 1 I feel like Cleveland is just one of those franchises that, you know, there's always that dodgy restaurant on that one corner you can never find parking for, and then a year later, it's a new restaurant, and then a year and a half later, it's a new restaurant again.

Speaker 1 It just kind of feels like they've got, that just seems to be the

Speaker 1 vibes. Well, Cleveland's like that dodgy.
Well, that's definitely the Browns franchise, but Cleveland is a city, it's just the dodgy restaurant just stays around. It never goes around.

Speaker 1 That's what happens.

Speaker 1 Oh, man. We're going to get to this we got to ask section.
I know we're on borrowed time, so we're going to get right to these questions.

Speaker 1 We got to ask. You don't have to answer.
What was it like getting abducted on jackass?

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's what I loved when these guys came on because, again, we were all serious about our acting and really, you know, really serious.

Speaker 1 And suddenly these guys come around and go, we don't give a fuck what you think about us. In fact, we want you to be upset with us.
And we're just going to go out there with no shame.

Speaker 1 So Spike Jones is a friend of mine. And

Speaker 1 I'd called him up and said, hey, man, if Knoxville and the gang, you know, they got anything going on, I'm in. Yeah.

Speaker 1 This idea of celebrity abduction. So I'm standing in the line at Pinks, big long, waiting for our hot dogs,

Speaker 1 famous Pinks hot dogs. And

Speaker 1 I've been there long enough for people to go, oh, that's so-and-so. That's that pick guy.
And then suddenly this van pulls up. And all these shirtless guys in hoods get out

Speaker 1 and grab me, throw me in the van. I'm screaming like like a six-year-old girl.
And

Speaker 1 yeah, it's one of my proudest moments.

Speaker 1 Oh, that's good.

Speaker 1 Those guys. Oh, my God.
Dude, I just met Johnny for the first time. I was freaking starstrucked.
I watched so much of that growing up, man. So movie.

Speaker 1 Did you ever get your hot dog or no?

Speaker 1 No, I'm still waiting.

Speaker 1 Those guys, man.

Speaker 1 We also had a co-star of yours on the show, Little Dickie,

Speaker 1 where he said he

Speaker 1 got you do a cameo in Dave by just sending you an email. Is this real? That's right.

Speaker 1 He sent an email. He'd heard that.

Speaker 1 Again, I thought, little man, this is brilliant. What this guy's doing.

Speaker 1 He's carving out territory

Speaker 1 no one else has been. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 I guess he got word. So he wrote me an email and I thought about it for a night and I couldn't find a reason not to do it.
And that's what I wrote him.

Speaker 1 I was like, and I tried, I tried to get out of it.

Speaker 1 I inquired with Buddhist monks and all the great religious minds of the world. I couldn't find a reason not to do it.
So I'm in. So good.
I love it. And there we are.
That's so badass.

Speaker 1 It was supposed to be a cameo. And then like two nights before, I get the script and it's the whole episode.
I'm like,

Speaker 1 like, Dave. That's great.
That's amazing. And there we were.
Well, one of the things that happens on this show has happened multiple times is manifesting things, right? You speak it into existence.

Speaker 1 Oh, wow. Is there a co-star or director that you haven't gotten to work with that you'd want to? Ooh.
I'm a huge PTA fan. I think he's just damn brilliant.

Speaker 1 Paul Thomas Anderson. Yeah.
Lovely. Yeah, that'd be good.
All right. Good deal.
What quote of yours do people say to you the most from one of your movies?

Speaker 1 What do you get the most?

Speaker 1 I get what's in the box. Yes.
still.

Speaker 1 I get bongiorno. Bonzondo.
Your ability to play just a redneck American soldier

Speaker 1 with the worst Italian acts. I don't even know how you'd act that, so you couldn't replicate that if you tried.
Anybody

Speaker 1 most of the time, I'm just trying to keep the gate on it. Yeah, right? Trying to suppress that down.

Speaker 1 Have you ever been starstruck by like a co-star?

Speaker 1 When I first met Gina Davis and Susan Sarandon, I was. Yeah, okay.
Yeah. Love that.
Yeah. I got over it quickly, though.

Speaker 1 Is it true that you volunteered to get your teeth chipped in Fight Club? Well, it's not like I put my hand up and went, I'll do it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Again, this was, I mean, this movie came partially, this idea is certainly out of the jackass movement. So,

Speaker 1 yeah, we didn't like, like,

Speaker 1 you know, we weren't getting facial scrubs and pedicures, you know, so let's go the other way. And I had chipped my teeth as a kid, so I just re-chipped them.
I just, that's all. Okay.

Speaker 1 Took the, took the bits off.

Speaker 1 I mean, still took the oven bits off. Yeah.

Speaker 1 You're known for constantly eating on the screen best food you've ever ate on camera. Damn, I don't know how I get this.
Like, people eat in life. Yeah, right.

Speaker 1 Like, I think it was in Oceans, and I figure he's always wading around. He's, he's like the consigliaria of the group, and he's always doing this and doing this, and he's got to eat on the run.

Speaker 1 That's all this, that's, that's where this came from. There was like thought behind it.
That's too funny. And now, anytime I eat in a film, I'm like, I guess I'm a bit of a grazer, but yes, okay.

Speaker 1 So that's my

Speaker 1 everything I've done,

Speaker 1 that's what I'm known for.

Speaker 1 The best, I had an ice cream Sunday. I remember an ice cream Sunday, big parfait thing on.

Speaker 1 I'll tell you a story.

Speaker 1 I haven't thought about this for years. One of my first movies, I'm doing this little independent film.
We're shooting in this little tiny cafe. It's full of the crew.

Speaker 1 So there's about 60 people in there. It's hot.
You can't breathe.

Speaker 1 And my character hadn't eaten for days and he gets his big plate of beans. First plate of beans and bacon.
And I was all like method. You know, I was like, I'm going to do this right.

Speaker 1 I'm going to, I'm going to.

Speaker 1 And I just, and I pow, you know, I just powered down this plate of beans, take two, do the same thing, take three, I do the same thing.

Speaker 1 Take four, I do the same thing.

Speaker 1 Something hit me. Oh, I know exactly what hit you.
It was the only thing that would hit you.

Speaker 1 And there was nothing I could do. I was stuck in this chair

Speaker 1 and

Speaker 1 nature took its course.

Speaker 1 And then there was nothing. I went, oh, great.
I got away. I got away with that one.

Speaker 1 And then suddenly, the entire crew, the most diabolical something something, descended on the crew in the whole room. And they fleed the cafe.

Speaker 1 Fleed.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 you've heard first, right?

Speaker 1 Hey, that was great. And ever since then, I've

Speaker 1 paced myself. Beans to do it to you, baby.
That's right. You should be proud.
Hey, you clear room. You clear a room.
That's a.

Speaker 1 That was from promo offensive lineman. You already know that's a badge of honor.

Speaker 1 We had,

Speaker 1 oh my gosh, Green,

Speaker 1 all-time SAC leader, one of the up there with the Steelers for a long time.

Speaker 1 And then he was coaching the Packers, Kevin Green.

Speaker 1 He came in, he was coaching the D-line. He came into the O-line room to try and give us tips on how to block D-line room.

Speaker 1 He came in there,

Speaker 1 guys are farting non-stop.

Speaker 1 And he was like, You guys are, O-lineman suck. I'm out of here.
He just left the room. room.
It was like two fighters.

Speaker 1 By the way, have you ever met David Fincher? He is probably the most knowledgeable man about your sport that you will ever run into. Oh, interesting.

Speaker 1 He would, the minute you mentioned this guy, he would pull his name up. Who's his team? Or is he just a fan? Just love it? He's a lover of the sport, man.
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, like strategy, strategy, strategy, strategy. We ask athletes this question all the time, but what was your Welcome to Hollywood moment? Welcome to Hollywood moment.

Speaker 1 Okay, I'll tell you my welcome to Hollywood moment. I was, I got my first little thing.
It was on a, like a little soap opera. And they, and my picture was in a, like, USA Today.

Speaker 1 Okay. And this was a big deal, sent to my mom and dad.
Look, you know, look, ma, I made it. And it was with a friend.
There was a girl he was really attracted to, a couple of girls.

Speaker 1 And we went over to their apartment and we went through the kitchen, the back door, and I looked down the litter box. And there there was that picture with a big cat turd on it.
Oh,

Speaker 1 big picture.

Speaker 1 That sums it up. That's right there.
Welcome to Hollywood. And I've never forgotten that.
I love it. I love it.
God damn, that's good. Dude, Brad, we appreciate you jumping on, man.

Speaker 1 We know you got a roll to the premiere, man. Thank you so much for gracing us with your time, brother.
And we'll get you, we'll get the Chiefs got to your back this year.

Speaker 1 And I love you both. I enjoy you both out there, everything you do.
Jason, is there any commercial you're not going to do this fall?

Speaker 1 There might be some.

Speaker 1 I was going to add, do you have any acting advice for me? How do I do commercials better? How can I nail this?

Speaker 1 You're crushing it, man.

Speaker 1 When the Raven in the elevator, that's my favorite. Yes, so good.
Also, say, say, what's up to Doug Pitt and Landon Pitt? Do you know? I don't know if you know this.

Speaker 1 I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro with your brother. He said so.
Yes.

Speaker 1 He's got two of you guys up there. He's got got Joe Buck up there and some other.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 That was electric. That was a lot of fun.
How about coming down? That was worse, you know? It's easily the worst part. You get so excited.
You've reached the summit. You're like, I'm here.

Speaker 1 It's over right now. Now you got to go back to the house.
Knees, knees, knees, knees.

Speaker 1 The worst. Oh, boy.
All right. All right.
Love you, bro. Thank you so much.

Speaker 1 Thanks for coming on. Thank you, brother.

Speaker 1 Enjoy it, man. All right.

Speaker 1 Oh, man. Shout out to the pit for first of all, an amazing movie, F1.
I fucking love F1. It is good.
It's very good. Yeah, for

Speaker 1 taking some time before the big premiere out in London to come hang with us

Speaker 1 over here at New Heights, baby. I feel like the movie is super relatable for where we were at at the end of our careers.
Like you're the older player, and there's like a lot of dynamics there.

Speaker 1 I don't know.

Speaker 1 I think that's why I loved it so much. For sure.
Definitely. I'm a swan.
I am now a swan. Let's get a little bit of New Heights Food Court brought to you by Hellmans.
Not gonna lie, Trav.

Speaker 1 Never in a million years did I think that we would have a mayonnaise sponsor with your

Speaker 1 very well-known hatred of that product.

Speaker 1 But here we are. Hellmans is sponsoring the New Heights Food Court.

Speaker 1 Last week, we put Travis's intense hate to Mayo on blast.

Speaker 1 We've always been talking about it, but Will Levis, Mayo lover, called you out on Instagram and challenged you to give Hellman's flavored Mayo a try.

Speaker 1 I'm not going to give it a try, but I know he loves it. All right.
Well, either way, Hellman's actually sent me some spicy Mayo.

Speaker 1 Oh, nice, Jason. That's right.
Apparently, we didn't send this to Travis because we didn't think he would hold up his end of the bargain.

Speaker 1 Well, I'm traveling, I'm everywhere, so probably didn't have an address for me. That's right, that's why, that's why, that's why, that's why, that's why.

Speaker 1 All righty, so Travis, are you ready to eat your words?

Speaker 1 No, but I'll tell you what, since I've been all over the place, I think I know someone who

Speaker 1 actually

Speaker 1 has a love for mayo as much as Will Evis does. And that's in turn Bertgo.

Speaker 1 Hey.

Speaker 1 Look at it. Look what they sent me.

Speaker 1 Look at this. Eat your words.
Eat your words on a chicken sandwich, boys.

Speaker 1 Nothing like a chicken sandwich getting dropped off at your house at six o'clock in the morning. How about it? Yeah.

Speaker 1 How about it, boys? You're so fired up. I actually am fired up.
This has been sitting here. It's been sitting here for so long, and it smells so good.
It's got the spicy mayo, fried chicken.

Speaker 1 They got the mayo on the bottom. They got the mayo on the bottom.
What else is on that bag?

Speaker 1 Lettuce, bread and lettuce. They got pickles.
I mean, that's everything you need. And they got, there's your spicy mayo.
Hold on, here we go. This is the bite.
This is the bite.

Speaker 1 I don't even know what we're reviewing. Like, everybody watching this right now knows it's going to be.
Everybody, the only person who's wrong is Travis, but that's fine.

Speaker 1 It's so good on chicken sandwich. I'm not being honest.
It really is. No, it is.
It's a a nice spice.

Speaker 1 Good.

Speaker 1 Travis, I swear to God,

Speaker 1 you will like it. The spicy mayo is good.
It's very good. It's good.
Jason, it's solid. Put this on a sandwich.
Put this on.

Speaker 1 Fried chicken is really good. It's spicier than you think, too, if I'm being honest.
Yeah, I think they sent you a sandwich. Everybody that likes mayonnaise got a sandwich.

Speaker 1 All the Mayo boys got sandwiches. Sucks, it sucks, Trav.

Speaker 1 That's a good sandwich. The mayo is a little spice.

Speaker 1 Very good.

Speaker 1 Me like you, the spicy.

Speaker 1 Put that on the bottle.

Speaker 1 Let's give it a little squirt. Damn, Helm.
Yeah, get you a little squirt. This is disgusting.
It's not. Stop it.
It's really not.

Speaker 1 Would you ever do this with ketchup?

Speaker 1 Squirt ketchup in my mouth to see what it tastes like? If it was like a specialty ketchup, yeah, I would put my finger in it and lick it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Try it. Try it, Jason.
Try it.

Speaker 1 It's great. Did you hear that sound?

Speaker 1 Every squeeze bottle in America makes that sound. That's what ketchup, mustard, they all make the fart noise.
I gotta throw them out before they get to that. I gotta toss them.

Speaker 1 That's good. I'm a big fan of spicy anything, really.
I love hot spice. Isn't it spicier than you think?

Speaker 1 I'm definitely getting... They put in a healthy amount of spice.

Speaker 1 It's a healthy amount of spice. All right.
I like it. Travis, we'll get you.
We'll bring you. It sounds like I need to give it a try.
So you will give it a try. Maybe another day.
Maybe another day.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 What would you be willing to put spicy mayonnaise on? A sushi roll? I mean, yeah,

Speaker 1 that adds up.

Speaker 1 What kind of sushi roll are you going? What fish? Shrimp tempura? You're going spicy tuna?

Speaker 1 Timpura's good. I can dabble.
I can go any which way. Like an eel? Maybe an eel? Ooh.
Unagi. Ooh.
Is that eel? I think so. I'm out on

Speaker 1 octopus. Everything else I'm in on.
All righty, on behalf of mayo lovers everywhere, this feels like a huge win. This product that is doesn't feel like a win that Travis didn't try it.

Speaker 1 We're going to work on getting him to try it.

Speaker 1 If you're a mayo hater out there, or if you know a mayor hater out there, challenge them to eat their words with Hellman's spicy mayo. That's right, or flavored mayo.
They have other flavors as well.

Speaker 1 The spicy ones, extremely delicious.

Speaker 1 Because they may think they hate mayo, but you know, if they like garlick aioli or a spicy sauce, they may actually love this. That's it for New Heights Food Court.
Brought to you by Hellmans.

Speaker 1 All right, Nat, that does it for old Hellmans, man. I don't know about that one, but I'll give it a try.
I'll give it a try.

Speaker 1 Hey you, before we wrap this up, though, let's answer a no-dumb question because that's some of our favorite questions we ever get asked. No dumb questions is brought to you by Perplexity AI.

Speaker 1 Discover fast and reliable search with Perplexity AI today.

Speaker 1 Nice. Brandon, hit us with it.

Speaker 3 Hi, guys. Heather here.

Speaker 3 My no-dumb question is about the two-minute warning in football.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 3 And why does it exist?

Speaker 3 Is it really just a TV thing for commercial rights and broadcasting?

Speaker 1 I know it's because it's there.

Speaker 3 The teams try to take advantage of it for controlling the clock at the end of the half or the end of the game. But does it really have any origin in a football purpose before TV rights?

Speaker 3 I guess I could look it up, but I'd rather hear you guys talk about it. Go, Giants.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Well, all right.
Whoa. Thank you for the call, Heather.

Speaker 1 Thank you, Heather. That's a very fair question.
That might be the smartest question we ever got.

Speaker 1 I think, just right off the bat, I do think there is a bit of like selling some sponsors or get some ads in there from the NFL standpoint.

Speaker 1 But stopping the clock right before half and right at the end of a game kind of

Speaker 1 makes it more dramatic and more of a special special situation. The rules change a little bit.
You can go out of bounds and the clock stops. You know what I mean? You can save time

Speaker 1 better

Speaker 1 at the end of game end of half. Yeah, dude, I think it's got to be for commercial.
And I would be shocked if this isn't for some type of advertising reason. I do think you're right.

Speaker 1 There are rule changes that happen after the two-minute warning. And it kind of gives each team to regroup.
You're playing different football.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and think about their planned attack, knowing that they're losing time and possibly the ball at the end of half. Maybe

Speaker 1 this is their last chance to score before they have to give the ball away. You know what I mean? Whatever it may be.
I did look it up on Perplexity. What is Perplexity so great?

Speaker 1 What is Perplexity so great?

Speaker 1 I did not know this either, but apparently it was started because

Speaker 1 officials kept game time and there was no clocks in the stadium. Oh, so it gives...
Oh, wow.

Speaker 1 So they give everybody literally a two-minute warning. Little heads up here, boys.
We got to wrap this up. game's almost over you have two minutes or you're dead

Speaker 1 what a wild way to play football but yes you guys are right yeah what a wild way to play football and not know how much time is left in the game

Speaker 1 like how do you this is just this is why this is why we don't count the reps we just dude what's the uh saying this is since don't count the reps when you're doing like conditioning what's the saying they always say dude fucking damn it i forget what the saying is i know what you're talking about though i was like no like, I actually always look at the clock to see how much time is left.

Speaker 1 I always look at the clock. I always count the reps.
I actually usually count the reps. If I'm doing a lot, I'll count it in twos a lot of the time.

Speaker 1 So it doesn't feel like I'm doing as many just mentally. So, like, a down and back is one.
I'll count laps as opposed to like two

Speaker 1 striders. Just so mentally, I feel like I'm doing less than I think I am.
Right down here, number four: television and commercials. I believe that's the big one these days.
Yeah, we're gonna

Speaker 1 We're going to turn the two-minute warning into a TV timeout.

Speaker 1 When do we think it's the least likely chance that viewers are going to turn away from tune out of the game when we go to commercial break?

Speaker 1 Hey, let's do it at the most interesting time of the game, which is two minutes left at the word.

Speaker 1 And that's where we

Speaker 1 have biggest spots. Yeah, that's right.
Wouldn't you love to hear about trucks right now? God damn it, I would.

Speaker 1 That's the two-minute warning. I did not know that.
I didn't realize that they played football. Nobody knew how much time was left in the game.
That's fucking wild. They still do it in soccer.

Speaker 1 Oh, they do. You're right.
Shout out to Perplexity. Yeah.
Shout out to Perfect Project. Thank you, Perplexity.
Nailed that one. That's giving us that history lesson.

Speaker 1 Shout out to Heather for the interesting question. Good question, Heather.
Good question. Very good question.
All right. That's it for Nodom questions brought to you by Perplexity.

The whole time, it's just like, God damn, this dude's funny.

Speaker 1 We didn't bring up that at all. We should have brought that up.
I didn't even bring up Snatch. It's my favorite movie.
Have you ever seen Snatch? No, I didn't get the reference when you said it.

Speaker 1 We should do a film club about Snatch. Maybe it's just Brad Pitt fighting.
I like Fight Club and I like Snatch. Yeah.
I couldn't. I'm with you, though.
I couldn't figure out how to ask questions.

Speaker 1 I was like fucking sitting here like, he's going to think this is stupid. I felt like Chris Farley.

Speaker 1 What is that? What is that? Chris Farley show.

Speaker 1 Is that what it was? Chris Farley show.

Speaker 2 He's interviewing like Paul McCartney.

Speaker 1 Remember when you did wings?

Speaker 2 That was cool.

Speaker 1 That's legitimately what I felt like. God damn it.
I still. Remember.
