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 Crispy 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.
Boarshead. Back to the orcas.
I am an orca.

Speaker 1 That's my like spirit animal. It was the most epic show of all time, dude.
You can't praise the orca show anymore. We probably can't keep any of this, but I still remember from the movie Ace Ventura.

Speaker 1 I did it, I did, I did it. I would have a recurring nightmare where I was in that like dark room that Ace Ventura was in, and I just entered the water, and then an orca came out of nowhere.

Speaker 1 It would always, oh, dude, every time.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, that's terrifying. Yes.
Oh, no, wake up. Right before the orca ate me.
Oh, thank gosh. The show is epic.

Speaker 1 What other shows are good that we saw before they got just like, yeah, you can't do that anymore?

Speaker 1 I guess football.

Speaker 1 You can't just.

Speaker 1 We're the orca of the NFL. It's just like, hey, how about we don't let that safety just decapitate that receiver? But it's what everybody likes.
That's what the people want.

Speaker 1 He's doing it for Gatorade. I don't know these things.

Speaker 1 Welcome back to New Heights, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, a wondrous show produced by Wave Sports and Entertainment and brought to you by DraftKings. That's right, DraftKings.

Speaker 1 New news.

Speaker 1 New news is brought to you by American Express. We've been nominated for a Kids Choice Award for Favorite Podcast.

Speaker 1 I'm not going to lie, Trev. I am so jealous of the blimps that you have had in the background of your sets from time to time.
Been fortunate, man.

Speaker 1 Had some big games on a lot of the Nickelodeon broadcasts, man. If we win this award, do we get a blimp? Is that how that works? Is that what this is? Either that or slime.
I'm not sure.

Speaker 1 I haven't won a Kids' Choice Award. Have I won? I don't think I've won.
I'll definitely won a Kids' Choice Award. I don't know if I've won one.

Speaker 1 I might have been up for one, but I don't think I've won a Kids' Choice Award. Gosh, I just want a blimp.
If I can get one of them Nickelodeon, if we get one, can I at least put it in my house?

Speaker 1 Can I put the. It's all yours, dude.
Because you already got it. It's all yours.
Unless Brandon wants it, I think. I think it's all good.

Speaker 1 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 1 All right, Jake. Jake.
No, no.

Speaker 1 I think I would really appreciate it. The Knicks are thriving right now.
Jake's Jake's in a great place. He is in a good spot.
He's in a good spot. Him and Ben Still.

Speaker 1 I've just been waiting to see Jake outside of a Knicks game absolutely hammered. You know the street interviews they do.

Speaker 1 Jake is just on there and just motherfucking every other city. Dude, I'm fucking fucking Cleveland.

Speaker 1 And I just want to catch him.

Speaker 1 I'm happy for the Knicks. Middle of the act.
I am happy for the Knicks, but I am so upset with the Cavaliers. I'm just like, this was such a great year.

Speaker 1 And it hurts. As much as it sucks watching Jason Tatum going down, it's like, oh my gosh, like it's all just like right there.
And the Pacers just freaking, listen, shout out to the Pacers.

Speaker 1 They played a great series. Yeah.
The Cavs.

Speaker 1 You already know. I'm a fan of Indianapolis.
Fan of New York, too. I think it would be a great series.
It'd be fun. And shout out to the Cavs, man.

Speaker 1 You guys still gave the city of Cleveland a lot to cheer for this year. So no doubt.
And the future is looking real bright.

Speaker 1 Speaking of a bright future, we are up for a kid's choice award for favorite podcast. We're up against the Laugh Out Loud podcast.
This can be hard to beat. It sounds like it's funny.

Speaker 1 Are you afraid of the dark? I don't know if the podcast dude

Speaker 1 loves those books. Those books are

Speaker 1 used to be, yeah. No, no, no.
That was goosebumps. Are you afraid of dark? It was the TV show.
That was a, I think there were books too, no? I don't know.

Speaker 1 I thought Are You Afraid of Dark was a TV show. Which was.

Speaker 1 I was afraid of the dark because I used to fucking watch those and turn it off before it got too scary. One of those, I remember growing up, it was like a clown.

Speaker 1 Like the kid was on the swing set, and then the clowns showed up out of nowhere.

Speaker 1 I mean, I'm still terrified to this day. I was never big on clowns, dude.
They're pretty scary. Bozo, he was terrifying.
Bozo the clown. What about

Speaker 1 what was the one that was on in Living Color?

Speaker 1 All right, I'm in on that clown, though.

Speaker 1 Nickelodeon, if we win, give him, throw him some slime. I want to see him get slimed.
I don't want slime. I don't want

Speaker 1 to.

Speaker 1 I want him to get slimed by his girls. Please, I don't have any interest in the slime.
Travis is also nominated for favorite male sports star. Another kid's choice award.
Well, how about this?

Speaker 1 If you win this one, then you can keep that blip. But you're up against some stiff competition.
Patrick Mahomes, heard of that guy before.

Speaker 1 Little Stefan Curry, Jason Jason Tatum, Lotto Messi, Jalen Hurts, Shoheio. God, I love this photo of Shohei Otani.
It's like a.

Speaker 1 That is the most Nickelodeon version of Shohei Otani ever.

Speaker 1 I mean, it looks like

Speaker 1 it looks like a prom photo or something. I don't even know what's going on in this photo.

Speaker 1 He's a happy son of a buck, right? He is. But

Speaker 1 the head.

Speaker 1 All right. LeBron James.

Speaker 1 And then, of course, Travis Kelsey. Listen, a lot of great choices in this one.
Yeah. one.
Tough to know. It doesn't look like he should be there.

Speaker 1 All right, here we go.

Speaker 1 Devolving the money.

Speaker 1 You won this last year. You have won a Kids Choice Award because you won favorite male sports star last year.

Speaker 1 Well, I didn't get a blimp.

Speaker 1 Can you go back to back? I didn't get a blimp.

Speaker 1 You didn't get a blimp? What'd you get? What did it look like?

Speaker 1 I think I got a tweet. I think they tweeted me.

Speaker 1 They might have got me something else. I don't know.
They probably gave you a blimp, Travis. You and I were in the city.

Speaker 1 I was in kind of moving around and shit.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we'll go with that.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I got nothing else to add. I will say, I don't think favorite podcasts should receive a sliming, but I do think the favorite

Speaker 1 male sports star is sufficient enough to be slimed. I'm surprised you haven't been to the Kids' Choice Awards, man.
You can go. This is an actual event.
Oh, yeah. This is like the Oscars for kids.

Speaker 1 Where is it held at? I would assume out in LA. I think that's where I was.
You went? You've been to the Nick Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards? I think I've been to the Kids Choice Awards.

Speaker 1 I'm pretty sure I won a

Speaker 1 I won an event there. Was it favorite male sports? No, no, no.
Like they do competitions. Like

Speaker 1 what? Like I was pulling a bus.

Speaker 1 full of kids.

Speaker 1 Pulling a bus full of do they have aggro crag? I didn't see aggro craig.

Speaker 1 If they got the aggro crack, there's a bunch of slime.

Speaker 1 What I got for winning the event was

Speaker 1 I pulled a bus faster than somebody else. I got to do the slip and slide,

Speaker 1 the slime slide. Slime slide.
So you run as fast as you can, then you jump and you slide down and you get slimed. Did you do this in a full suit? No.
They gave me some.

Speaker 1 I brought an extra pair of clothes. Oh, that's smart.
Yeah. All right.
Well, the ceremony is June 21st in Santa Monica. But before that, please vote on at least

Speaker 1 New Heights is the favorite sports podcast.

Speaker 1 That's so funny.

Speaker 1 At the least. You know, if you want to go above and beyond, vote for Trevor.

Speaker 1 We've also been asked to give a huge shout out to the University of Cincinnati Bearcats. That's right.

Speaker 1 That's new news brought to you by American Express.

Speaker 1 Trav, let's get to these fan mentions. Fan mentions.
First fan mention, Will Coppton. Yeah.
Busting with the boys. Just called us out, Trev.
He's called us out.

Speaker 1 Also, University of Nebraska alumni, Nebraska, Cincinnati. That's right.
The Cincinnati Bearcats take on the Nebraska Corn Huskers at beautiful Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri.

Speaker 1 How about that? And Will decided to tweet this: Would hate to beat your teens ass on your home field in Arrowhead.

Speaker 1 You son of a bitch. You're getting a piss hot, Will.
It's a very Will Compton tweet, very much in his style. It's such a good one.

Speaker 1 He's one of the best on social media. God damn, he's a good follow.
It's fucking on like Donkey Kong, motherfuckers.

Speaker 1 That was an aggressive way to say it. It's on like Donkey Kong.

Speaker 1 Fickles at

Speaker 1 Nebraska and Wisconsin. Wisconsin.
Wisconsin. Yep.
I always get Wisconsin and Nebraska mixed up. Yeah.

Speaker 1 That will. You hear that Will? He gets it mixed up because there's no difference.
It's just a bunch of white guys in red jerseys running around.

Speaker 1 I don't know.

Speaker 1 And a bunch of corn. Just a bunch of corn and cheese curds.
I think you're only referencing Wisconsin right now.

Speaker 1 No, courthouse curds. That's right.
That's right. That's right.
No, I don't want to shit on Nebraska. Big fan of Nebraska.
I'm excited about this, dude. It's pretty incredible.

Speaker 1 Neutral field.

Speaker 1 I mean, it's not going to be neutral. It's going to be a lot of Nebraska fans there.
But regardless,

Speaker 1 little

Speaker 1 corn husker, the Bearcats are playing in Arrowhead. This is going to be awesome.
It's in freaking, one of the most electric stadiums in the NFL.

Speaker 1 Now it's going to host one of the first games of the college football season. And our Bearcats, our Bearcats are going to be playing in this game versus Will's Corn.
And, you know, listen,

Speaker 1 corn's tough. It's hard to digest it.
A lot of the times it's it's still in your shit. Even when you think you're shitting it out, it's still there.

Speaker 1 Like, it didn't even, it's a tough, fibrous vegetable that's tough to really. And Matt Ruhl is really embodying that as a coach over there.
And he's got those guys tougher than nails.

Speaker 1 If there's one thing I know,

Speaker 1 they're going to have to be ready, man. If there's one thing I know, Matt Rule is shitting some corn.
He is fucked up. Dude, dude, this is not.
That's just uncalled for. He's got the corn shit.

Speaker 1 That's just uncalled for.

Speaker 1 This is uncalled for.

Speaker 1 We can't do that. Do you think there's like when you're like, get your piss out, they're like, get your corn shit? No.
No.

Speaker 1 Either way, the Bearcat. So that's a failure.
Bearcats are going to be fighting on the Nebraska Corn Huskers.

Speaker 1 Are you going? Dude, I'm there.

Speaker 1 Yeah, 1,000% I'm there. Why wouldn't I be there? It's right there in my backyard.
That's a good point. You should be there.
Yeah. I want to fuck you.
I'm going to have to make the trip too.

Speaker 1 This just sounds too electric to miss. My guy, Terry Brayden is over there on the defensive line.
I can't wait to beat the fuck.

Speaker 1 Listen, human beings might not be able to digest corn. Human beings might not, but you know what can? A Bing Turong.
A Bing Turong is known for being an expert corn digester.

Speaker 1 They're going to eat the shit out of you, corn husking white guys wearing red uniforms. What is this?

Speaker 1 A Bing Turong? That's what the official name of a bearhead is, I believe. Brandon, can we look that up?

Speaker 1 God damn it, man. Where was I at the entire time?

Speaker 1 I don't even know if that's how you pronounce it.

Speaker 1 Benturong. Gosh, look at how ugly they are.
I mean,

Speaker 1 to each his own. Everyone finds beauty.

Speaker 1 If that thing had a number one podcast, I'd be up for sexiest bearcat of the year.

Speaker 1 Look at that ugly fucking thing.

Speaker 1 Rare!

Speaker 1 Look at how hideous it is. It's just fearsome.

Speaker 1 You're not showing us anything. It says Benturong.
Well, you learn something new every day. Oh, my God.
Look at that one's beard. I kind of look like that one.
That's a Jason Kelsey Benturong.

Speaker 1 Can you look up and see how good they are at digesting corn? Benturong corn digestion.

Speaker 1 What the fuck?

Speaker 1 This got so out of fucking. Look at these fucking things eating the corn.
Dude, I'm a fucking bad. Look at this fucking fucking corner.

Speaker 1 You're fucking fucked up, Will. You're so fucked, Will.
You're so fucked. We're fucking eating the fuck out of corn.
Look at that Bintron eating the fucking corn on the cop. Oh, baby.

Speaker 1 Jason was at the eighth annual Eagles Autism Challenge. I was.

Speaker 1 That's right. The Kelseys are heavily involved in that, raising a record $10 million

Speaker 1 in one day. Holy smokes, man.
So record. Bennett has officially made up with Swoop.
That's right. Last year, she was a little

Speaker 1 unsure of the mascot Swoop. Is Swoop in the Hall of Fame?

Speaker 1 She was a little upset, a little unsure of Swoop. This year, still a little bit unsure of Swoop, but definitely less unsure of Swoop.
There we go. So we're making progress.

Speaker 1 We're making progress, Swoop. There you go, Benny.
Swoop does a great job. I mean,

Speaker 1 it plays it up so well.

Speaker 1 We can say he, right? Say he?

Speaker 1 No? Okay. It plays it up really well.
It's got great energy, great vibes. I think it might be even worse.

Speaker 1 I don't think we can do it.

Speaker 1 I got canceled for that one. Damn it.
Jason's second double-fisting 5K. In this month alone.
This guy is literally just knocking out 5K

Speaker 1 beer miles.

Speaker 1 He ran the two bears 5K uh not even two weeks ago and um here he is chugging a beautiful lime garage beer don't we all just love those even when we're running even when we're all about fitness fitting this beer in your mouth fitting this beer in your mouth i love that good job yeah the garage beer uh one was a from the Two Bears 5K.

Speaker 1 The one in the bottom, I didn't do the 5K, actually biked 10 miles for the Eagles Autism Challenge. Oh, okay, okay.
Came in with a very respectable time.

Speaker 1 I don't know what it was, but I was towards the top. I was very happy with myself.
Really? Yeah. So I'm enjoying some beers to celebrate burning a bunch of calories.

Speaker 1 Nice, man. If you can't do that, what's the point of biking?

Speaker 1 And then

Speaker 1 the 5K, actually, Bo Allen and I had a race.

Speaker 1 You know what the beer mile is, right? We already talked about this, right? Yeah. Yeah.
So, anyways, we tried a beer 5k, Bo won, Bo won.

Speaker 1 You know, you don't really know if those beers are empty, but I'll give it to him. He He won, even though nobody really knows.
Yeah, I think it was a fun event. Burt and Tom are awesome.

Speaker 1 The whole city of Tampa had a blast out there.

Speaker 1 Raymond James Stadium. And then the Eagles always do it right for the Eagles Autism Challenge.

Speaker 1 If there's one thing to celebrate after you've just done something, a physical achievement, you drink beer afterwards, right?

Speaker 1 Sometimes you drink beer during it, too. Millicent are trying to get gains, but yeah.
Well, what am I trying to gain, Travis? I'm retired. That's a good point.
That's why you drink beers.

Speaker 1 That's your thing. Yeah.
Yeah. We're not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm competing with nobody.
Yeah, you're competing with somebody because you were excited that you were in the upper, upper half.

Speaker 1 I will ask this, though. Why the hell doesn't New Heights have their own 5K or their own charity golf outing? What are we doing here?

Speaker 1 This is a great question.

Speaker 1 Why does it have to be a charity golf outing? Can't we just do like a legit golf outing? Because we want to raise money for the kids. We don't want to just keep all our money.

Speaker 1 Why does it have to be for the kids? Why can't it be for the kids? For adults?

Speaker 1 Yeah, there you go. That run a podcast.
Maybe my bad. My bad.
My bad. My bad.
My bad. My bad, Player.

Speaker 1 I respect it. Always good for doing something.
Respect them, kids. Oh, my bad.
Don't say that. Don't say that.

Speaker 1 Listen, I'm in. Other than doing another 5K.
Do you want to do a beer 5K? Should we just do an event, the beer 5K? Jason, no, I don't want to do anything 5K. No.

Speaker 1 No?

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 1 Do you want to just like announce your participation in it and then you can just walk it? No, I'd rather just do a golf outing. Okay, we can do a golf outing.
That sounds way more fun.

Speaker 1 I've been wanting to do this. I want to do a golf outing, but I like the team aspect.
But like, you don't like the teams? Nope. I hate it.
All right, cool.

Speaker 1 We should also do a Billy Madison style academic decassalon. This is more our speed.
I'm in on anything Billy Madison style.

Speaker 1 I mean, we can even get a penguin there. Just running around.
Have you seen the movie Penguin Lesson? Penguin Lesson, no. What's that about? Or Lessons of a Penguin?

Speaker 1 Is that the one where it's like they follow like the penguins around? No, the penguin follows him around because he saves it. No, I haven't seen this one.

Speaker 1 It made me want a penguin, that's for damn sure. Yeah, I guess we'll start thinking about a New Heights golf outing or 5K or charity or some type of academic decathlon.

Speaker 1 Just the good old Billy Madison. Yeah, there we go.
I like that. Shout out to the Sandman.
A lot of options. Let's do it.
What kind of events would you guys want to do?

Speaker 1 What kind of events do the 92%ers, Maybe that's a good way to just think about this. Yeah, please hit us with it.
That'll be good for our live shows, anyways.

Speaker 2 This is a real good story about Drew, a real United Airlines customer.

Speaker 1 After almost four years of treatments, I was finally cancer-free. My mom's like, where do you want to go to celebrate? I'm like, let's go somewhere tropical.

Speaker 1 And then pilot hopped in the intercom and started talking about me. And I was like, what is going on here? My wife beats cancer too, and I wanted to celebrate his special moment.

Speaker 2 That's Bill, a real United pilot.

Speaker 1 We brought him drinks and donuts. We all signed a card.
I was smiling ear to you. Best flight ever for sure.
That's how good leads the way.

Speaker 1 Wait, so Reese's color is orange and the Oreo cookie was invented in 1912.

Speaker 1 This one's been in the vault waiting for its moment. Reese's Oreo.
The biggest drop since, well...

Speaker 1 At Raising Canes, we're hyper-focused on being the best at what we do and getting it right every time.

Speaker 1 Cook to order chicken fingers, cane sauce, crinkle cut fries, coleslaw, Texas toast, iced tea and lemonade. It's our one love.
But is the hype real?

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's real good. Raisin Cane's chicken fingers, one love.

Speaker 1 Next time, order with our app or online.

Speaker 1 Let's talk some football, baby. That's right.
Schedule updates. Since we last recorded, we got to look at the rest of the 2025 Chiefs schedule.
That's right.

Speaker 1 We're going to be on a bunch of fucking primetime games playing on Sunday, two on Monday, one on Thursday. And this season opener against the Chargers is on a Friday night.

Speaker 1 Beautiful Sao Paulo, Brazil. Can't wait to get down there and see all the Brazil fans and how they get rocking for some American football, man.

Speaker 1 I was about to say, by the way, we heard everyone from Brazil. So apparently September in Sao Paulo is not hot, so we don't have to worry about that.
Let's go!

Speaker 1 We were assured there are a lot of Brazil fans that I think were under the impression that we don't like international games. I speak for Thomas and I.
We both love international games. Shine me up.

Speaker 1 Don't get me wrong. I love playing in Arrowhead and love playing in America, but I'm down with at least one or two international games.
Get me out of this country.

Speaker 1 I want to play in front of some new fans, man. We just don't like heat.
This thing, I'm wearing two shirts right now. I have, and it's all, it connects.
It connects to here and then the back.

Speaker 1 And then I'm just, I'm a furry son of a bitch. So

Speaker 1 me and heat just don't do well together. So I apologize if it came off as that I'm not excited about this.
I'm still excited. I'm just going to be doing some wardrobe changes throughout the game.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and I think I mentioned something about Sao Paulo not being my favorite city. Did I mention that?

Speaker 1 I think you said you liked Rio more because of the World Cup experience. Well, I went to four cities

Speaker 1 when I went to the World Cup in 2014.

Speaker 1 I went to Rio, Brasilia. Brasilia is gorgeous architecture.
Rio is like, obviously, just an incredibly beautiful city. It's rocking.
Belo Horizonte was awesome as well.

Speaker 1 I mean, I just, listen, if we're going objectively from beauty, Sao Paulo is just a bunch of concrete. I'm not going to lie.
But I have heard everybody's reactions on the internet. That's so unfair.

Speaker 1 Everybody's, they're gonna, they're already gonna be mad at me again. I've heard everybody's reactions.
Everybody's like, Sao Paulo's got a lot of culture in their defense.

Speaker 1 I only spent one day in Sao Paulo and did nothing but went to a soccer game, so I didn't get to experience the city at all. Who'd you see play there? Do you remember?

Speaker 1 Oh my gosh, I don't remember which game I saw in Sao Paulo. My favorite game was in Belo Horizonte.
We saw Brazil play Chile in the round of 16, where Brazil won in penalty kicks.

Speaker 1 There were some

Speaker 1 soccer player from that game, Neymar.

Speaker 1 What? You got to see Neymar play live? Absolutely. It was awesome.
Got to see Neymar play live. I forget the Chile player that was there.

Speaker 1 He was having a really good World Cup, but I do remember distinctly thinking how much better at like watching soccer Brazilians were than like Americans.

Speaker 1 You go to the World Cup as an American and they're like, I believe that we can win. I believe that we can win.
It's like, dude, what the fuck are we here for? We can get that rocking.

Speaker 1 We can get that rocking, though. that get that thing gets rocking that is the

Speaker 1 most loser mentality chant i have ever heard in my life back in 2015 that was a fight it was it was the listen i did it i'm an american at the game i'm gonna do it but i felt like a complete loser saying like i think that we can win i believe that like what the you're acting like so you're saying that there's people that don't believe it it's just a weird chant it's like this is just a It's a fucking shitty chant.

Speaker 1 And then I'm in Brazil. They're in Brazil.
I don't remember it exactly, but they were saying something like, Chi, Chi, Chi, Le, Le, Le.

Speaker 1 And like, and I was like, oh, and we asked one of the Brazilians like this, what does that mean? And they said, we came here to fuck chilling. I was like, yeah, they're better at it.

Speaker 1 They're better at it than you are.

Speaker 1 There's a different level of we're here to fuck shit up from the Brazilians than there is from the, it's just

Speaker 1 the USA soccer is just a little bit too nice. And like,

Speaker 1 you know what I'm talking about, Travis. You know exactly what I'm talking about.

Speaker 1 There was an interview with Zlatan Iberhimovich, and they were asking him like which like city he enjoyed the most or or like which fan base he enjoyed the most, or something like that.

Speaker 1 And he referenced one of the teams he played for, one of the cities he played for,

Speaker 1 was like they had a specific chant after the first time he scored about him like being a god and like just being the fucking man. And they just sung that the entire time he was there.

Speaker 1 He was like, that's pretty fucking epic. I mean, USA, obviously, we got USA, USA, which is like just the

Speaker 1 awesome chant. Awesome.
Everybody hates it, probably, probably, which makes me even love it that much more.

Speaker 1 I just think we have so many great things that we could be chanting rather than I believe that we could like, I don't know. I'm out on it.
I'm out on that chant so much. It was good.

Speaker 1 It was good back then. Like, you go to like, watch like soccer hooligans.
You watch soccer hooligans like in England, and they're just talking shit. They're singing songs about talking shit.

Speaker 1 The Sons of Ben in, I think it's Sons of Ben in Philadelphia for the MLS team.

Speaker 1 They're fantastic. I would expect Philly to have some good chance.
It is here.

Speaker 1 The songs are here in the U.S.

Speaker 1 The national team just needs to take it to another level. And I think that that's part of the reason why our national team isn't good.

Speaker 1 We're too nice. We don't have the mentality.
We came here to fuck you guys. That's what the mentality needs to be, not like, I think that I can win.
We will, we will fuck you.

Speaker 1 Like, do you know how much of a different mentality is it is than to go to a game and be like, oh, I think that I can win. I believe in myself.
Or it's like, I came here to fuck shit up.

Speaker 1 It is just an entirely different level of like

Speaker 1 gravitas in Brazil. I'm just being honest.
Yeah, well, I mean, and I think that that's why they, and I think that that's why they beat us. We need the mentality of the U.S.
soccer team to be like

Speaker 1 some of these other countries. We just do.
And it can't be, I believe that we can win. It needs to be, I believe that we can fuck you up.

Speaker 1 I believe that we can't fuck you. Oh,

Speaker 1 that's what the chance should be.

Speaker 1 Come on.

Speaker 1 Let me lead the chance next year. The World Cup's coming to Philly.
World Cup's coming to Philly. I'll lead the chance.
I got it this time. U.S.

Speaker 1 Go USA.

Speaker 1 Don't do that. You can't do that.

Speaker 1 That was great, man. Way to fucking send it.
You went full.

Speaker 1 You went full send there. That was great.
What is it? Redfish, blue fish, white fish, two fish.

Speaker 1 one fish two fish all right i don't even goldfish bronze fish what is this i don't know where you're going with this i was trying to think of a word that rhymed but and i couldn't get it i'll work on it it'll be good though we'll get some good ones yeah jason will be the mascot for uh the american soccer team i'm not a mascot i'm just i just want to lead the the the song section or at least be a part of coming up with chants that better reflect the

Speaker 1 boisterousness of USA. There we go.
There we go. All right.
let's get back on track here. Shout out to everybody down in Brazil.
Can't wait to get down there.

Speaker 1 Sorry if it came off as I'm not excited because I am. I'm dying.
I am. We've got a huge challenge with the Los Angeles Chargers, baby.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so we got a bunch of primetime games, and then we don't play in the same slot in consecutive weeks until mid-December. So that'll be fun.

Speaker 1 Got to make sure you check the old schedule, Travis, so you're not late to the game. Is it hard to find a routine when the game day changes so much week to week? No.

Speaker 1 The routines stay the routines, depending on when you play, you just slot it in on either like a different day.

Speaker 1 That is, if you play on a short week on like a Saturday or a Friday, you just push up what you got to get done a few days. And then vice versa.
If it's a longer day, then you just

Speaker 1 get more rest. And then you just jump in when the time is right.

Speaker 1 But no, I don't find it hard at at all. Love it.
I don't know. I don't have anything else to add.
Yeah, I mean, I'm a fan of playing on all sorts of different days.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it changed my routine up, man. I am, like, I like to have like a new fresh routine or, you know, I like to have, like, when it becomes like redundant, it's just the same,

Speaker 1 you know, same day, same time.

Speaker 1 Shit can get fucking boring, man. Yeah, I think, and I'm also just a fan of playing on more prime time times.
Like, that's when I'm watching TV and I like it when football is on the television.

Speaker 1 So, let's keep putting good football games on television when everybody's watching. I mean, I think it's just good for the game.
Let's keep taking over all the holidays.

Speaker 1 We're taking over Thanksgiving, Christmas, NBA. You're fucked.
You're never getting that back. I mean, it's

Speaker 1 the way it is.

Speaker 1 Are the Chiefs now officially American scene? Well, I mean, listen, the Cowboys aren't. Did you see what happened to this Cowboys fan? I don't even want to say this.

Speaker 1 Yeah, dude. He

Speaker 1 switched it up, man. Yeah.
This is such.

Speaker 1 I just say this is such such a Cowboys fan thing to do.

Speaker 1 The city of Dallas is going to fucking kick you to the balls.

Speaker 1 It does make sense. I see.
I hear where you're coming from. Well, the problem is like this guy probably, I don't know, he probably isn't from Dallas.
He's probably just a guy that

Speaker 1 was a fan of Dallas. He was around the 90s, late 80s, and early 90s.
And they were just really good. Ori grew up like thinking, hey, this is the popular team to pick.
And he picked them.

Speaker 1 And then he had it tattooed across his entire back. Like it's the coolest thing in in the world.
And he's like, oh, these guys suck. How can I get a cool team on my back? Just be loyal to us, baby.

Speaker 1 Just be loyal to us. Listen, we'll treat you right over here at Chiefs Kingdom.
We'll make it so you will never have to cover up that Chiefs

Speaker 1 logo, dude. By the way, shout out to the tattoo artist that was able to cover this up very well.
But yeah, I don't know. I don't know if they're American team.

Speaker 1 I think Philly, Philly's building up a big contingency. Really, what happens, I guess, when you're really good, people just start liking your team.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so I'm kind of out on just the whole America's team. I would feel I don't give a fuck about that shit.
I don't think anybody wants to see

Speaker 1 Kansas City. I want to be the Chiefs, man.
That's what I want to be. I'm with you.
I'm going to be the big bad Chiefs. Come join if you want, but America's team? No, we're Kansas City.
I'm cool.

Speaker 1 The boys can have that if they want them. Yeah.
Any other thoughts on the schedule? I will say Eagles fans are finding out what Chiefs fans and Chiefs.

Speaker 1 the Chiefs have had to deal with the last couple years. I think Eagles play on every day other than two days this year.
They're on a lot of primetime television games.

Speaker 1 I mean, it's just what happens when your team's really good. Who doesn't want to see

Speaker 1 Tylen Hurts, Saquon Barkley

Speaker 1 play some football for a while? It's a badge of honor. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Is it harder? Yes. 100%.
You're going to have to figure it out. No, it's not any harder than the regular schedule.
We're having a fucking blast. I played in three games on 11 days last year.

Speaker 1 Wasn't that much harder? I think it's definitely harder. And you're also playing better teams.

Speaker 1 When you finish first, you're going to play the best teams in the AFC and the NFC of those respective conferences. That's reality.
That's reality.

Speaker 1 It's going to be a hard schedule. And the Eagles have a tough one.
It's also constructed oddly in some ways.

Speaker 1 But I'm excited about it. I'm excited how much they'll be on prime time.

Speaker 1 And I get to see the boys suit up. So

Speaker 1 you get to see them suit up against them.

Speaker 1 I'm about to say you get to see us suit up against them in week two, the Super Bowl rematch, man. Is that in

Speaker 1 Casey, New Philly? In Kansas City. In Kansas City.
Yep. In Arrowhead.
We also got the Monday night football schedule. We open up Vikings at Bears in week one.

Speaker 1 Going to be fun after Caleb Williams basically told everybody he wanted to be drafted by the Vikings. Lions at Ravens.
Chiefs at the Jaguars. How about it, baby? Let's go, man.

Speaker 1 A little week five. Commanders at Chiefs.
That'll be a good one. That was one thing I'm not happy with the Eagles schedule.

Speaker 1 The Eagles and Commanders are like, are probably the two front runners to win the division. And they play each other like twice in the last four games or something like that.

Speaker 1 Like it's something crazy where like it's. What's wrong with that? I just wish that there was a game in the earlier part of the season, then there's a game at the end of the season.

Speaker 1 I don't like when, especially those games are going to come down to be like very

Speaker 1 pivotal for the division and it's going to be able to swing.

Speaker 1 Put them at the end of the year when they're one for the the division. No, you put one at the end of the year.

Speaker 1 You don't, if the Washington sucked at the beginning of the year and then all of a sudden they win the last two games against the Eagles, I think that's bullshit. Or vice versa.

Speaker 1 You're such just being honest. I think it's a weird way to like, what if somebody's hurt at that point in the season, but they're going to be healthy for the playoffs? I'm just saying.

Speaker 1 I like it when it's spaced out more. If you want to put us against the Giants late in the year, because nobody really expects them to be very good, that's fine.
But like to have that.

Speaker 1 I think it's harder to schedule these things than you think.

Speaker 1 I think you're probably right, but I also think that I have the right to complain about it.

Speaker 1 It is tough playing a team like twice in like three weeks. So I'll give you that.
That's hard. Right? I've done it before.
That is not a fucking easy feat. I also got two Eagles games.

Speaker 1 They're going to be on Monday night. Excited about that.
We're at Rambo in week 10 and at the Chargers. Ooh, both away.
Damn, we couldn't get the Eagles a home fucking Monday night game.

Speaker 1 I think they saw the last home Monday night night game and they're like, yeah, Kelsey was a little bit too.

Speaker 1 We got it.

Speaker 1 We can't let him go back to Philadelphia. They almost blew Dumpy's knee out.

Speaker 1 Hilarious. They're like, yeah, that's not good for our

Speaker 1 TV. We're going to get away from this.
That was hilarious. That was

Speaker 1 well put. All right.
Well, we got some

Speaker 1 rule changes about to be voted on. Jason?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Proposed rule change.
The last thing

Speaker 1 by the time this airs they will have come to a conclusion on some of this stuff the NFL owners are having an annual spring meeting in Egan Minnesota

Speaker 1 beautiful Minnesota it's probably gorgeous there right now

Speaker 1 there will be voters on the following banning the tush push for the one millionth time.

Speaker 1 Yep. Changing the playoff seating.
That's right. Instead of your division actually mattering during the season, they're just going to oppose whoever has the best records, it sounds like.

Speaker 1 The last one is the Olympic flag football.

Speaker 1 2028 debut of flag football in the Olympics is coming up, and we got to figure out, you know, how involved and whether or not the NFL is going to allow the NFL players to play and participate in it.

Speaker 1 Where do we want to start with this? Do we want to start with the changing the playoff seating?

Speaker 1 Sounds like you're against it.

Speaker 1 Why are we playing division? The division isn't going to matter anymore. Well, it still determines if you go to the playoffs.

Speaker 1 It just determines, like, if you win the division, you're not automatically going to get a home game in the first round. I think is what that means.
I thought that was a part of winning the division.

Speaker 1 Was like, you get that. I agree.
And I kind of, that's why I'm kind of not in favor of changing it. I think I understand

Speaker 1 what they're trying to accomplish. Benny's in timeout right now.
Benny.

Speaker 1 Are we okay? You don't like the rule change either?

Speaker 1 You think the division winner should keep their their home game, right?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I think she thinks that. Benny, do you want to help out with the rule changes? Come here, sweetie.
Benny, she might be the smartest two-year-old ever if she agrees with this.

Speaker 1 She's probably better at deciding all this stuff than everybody else deciding is.

Speaker 1 Benny? She's unbiased. What do you think about the tush push? Should the Eagles be allowed to do the tush push?

Speaker 1 I in time out. You're in timeout, yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Should the NFL be in timeout for proposing banning the tush push? No? Okay. You're not being any fun right now.

Speaker 1 Let's just talk about the tush push. What do you think about the tush push? Well, I want to let's start with the.
I think we should.

Speaker 1 Tell me whether you like it or not. I want to start with the playoff seeding.
We'll get the tush push last. Playoff seating.
I understand when it's like an 8-8 team, how they

Speaker 1 all of a sudden get a home game versus a team that is like 11 and

Speaker 1 you know, six because they got a wild card spot because somebody else was really good in in the division.

Speaker 1 But I also kind of like sometimes those division records are low because the divisions are really competitive and those teams fought each other all year round.

Speaker 1 I kind of like the way the thing is structured already. I don't like changing things that I think are largely not broken.
Like, just play the freaking game. I don't know.

Speaker 1 I think it's fine the way it is. I think it's perfect the way it is.
Yeah. If

Speaker 1 you want a higher seed, win your division and have the best record. I'm with you on that.
Olympic flag football, 1,000% in favor of the owners allowing NFL players to participate. 2,000%.

Speaker 1 Like one thing that I think, I think we both probably speak on behalf of every NFL player. One of the things that is always sucked about football is that there's no way to represent your country.

Speaker 1 Well, now that flag football will be in the Olympics, there officially is a way to represent the country on the largest stage possible.

Speaker 1 I know that the current USA flag football team has a lot of things to say. I believe, I can't remember the quarterback's name.
He has been stated as saying he's better than Patrick Mahomes.

Speaker 1 I believe that's verbatim.

Speaker 1 I think we should find out.

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 and the style he plays is suitable. He's pretty good.

Speaker 1 I mean, listen, I respect him.

Speaker 1 I like watching him play. Yeah.
I just think he's out of his mind if he thinks he's a better quarterback than Patrick Mahomes. That's fine.
Yeah. We'll find out.

Speaker 1 I think we should actually just play a game and figure out who qualifies to represent the United States of America. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Also,

Speaker 1 if you declete somebody by accident,

Speaker 1 do you get kicked out of the game?

Speaker 1 I don't know what the official rules are. Because

Speaker 1 if you strike some fear in them, boys.

Speaker 1 Oh, whoops. All of a sudden.
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Games are a little more dicey. Yeah.

Speaker 1 You want to be the bad boys. You're bringing that Detroit Pistons mentality, Broad Street Bullies mentality to flag football.
That's what I'm talking about right there. I can dig it.

Speaker 1 That's what I'm talking about. Yeah, I'm a huge favor favor of this.
I think that everybody in the United States wants to see this,

Speaker 1 or at least the opportunity to compete to be able to represent your country. And let's face it, like the

Speaker 1 football is America's game. It's one of the few games that is uniquely American.
And the fact that it's going to be on display in this form

Speaker 1 world stage

Speaker 1 is awesome. And I think as Americans, we should all want the biggest names that are able to be a part of it, a part of it.

Speaker 1 And then, lastly, obviously, there's the tush push, which they are voting on banning. It feels like this is the most legitimate chance it's had since they've been voting on it to be banned.

Speaker 1 I'll say this: I'm actually going to Minnesota. I was asked, what?

Speaker 1 So, there were some things said at the last owners' meeting, essentially saying that some of the owners and coaches hinted that the reason I stopped playing was because of the tush push and that I got hurt on the tush push frequently.

Speaker 1 What the fuck? So I'm really just going to

Speaker 1 stand out here telling reporters this. I'm just going to answer any questions people have about my

Speaker 1 partaking in this play. I really don't, and I mean this with all sincerity.
I don't care whether it gets banned or not. I think that at the end of the day,

Speaker 1 This is why you vote on things. And if they vote to ban the tush push, the Eagles are still going to run quarterback sneak at a very high percentage

Speaker 1 they're still going to get they're still i we were very successful quarterback sneak before it was touch the tush push or brotherly shove and i just think that the players are very good at executing that play in particular is it marginally better with the push i think so but i also like if everybody's fed up with it and everybody does feel that it's either a threat to player safety or they want to go back to the old rule that you can't assist runners

Speaker 1 we're all going to to vote on it. I don't want to try and persuade.
Although I do think that the health thing, there's not any data to suggest that it's less healthy or that it's more unsafe.

Speaker 1 Matter of fact, I think a regular short yardage play is probably more unsafe than a tush push.

Speaker 1 The assisting the runner has never made sense to me because defensive players are allowed to gang tackle running backs.

Speaker 1 Why are they allowed to like stop a running back with four defensive players, but I can't help my running back out?

Speaker 1 Because life isn't fair, Jason. It's a good point.
And that's why somebody's going to vote on this, and the fairness will be determined by the owners and the committee.

Speaker 1 But I'm just going to offer any type of like, if anybody has any questions about the tush push or whether I retired because of the tush push, I'll tell you this right now.

Speaker 1 I'll come out of retirement today if you tell me all I got to do is run 80 tush pushes to play in the NFL.

Speaker 1 I'll do that gladly.

Speaker 1 It'll be the easiest job in the world and it'll be like 80-some snaps. I think it's the overall ability to play the game and some of the plays that are a lot harder than that to execute.
I don't know.

Speaker 1 It feels weird going there. I don't even know if I should, but I was invited.
No, dude, you're in. You're in.
I can't wait to see a picture of you with a fucking poster that says pro tush push.

Speaker 1 I'm not, listen, I'm okay with that. Keep the push.
Keep the push. Push my tush.
Push my tush.

Speaker 1 Do you think it's weird that I'm going? Should I go? Should I not go? No, I've been going back and forth. This is very, this is very,

Speaker 1 I think you're doing Philadelphia and the Eagles organization right by going in here and representing that it's not what people are making it out to be.

Speaker 1 I think you're doing, I think you're being a good teammate and a good player of the organization or former player. No, Jason, here's, I have an honest pitch.

Speaker 1 You should have all the owners line up and run a tush push.

Speaker 1 No. No, this is my job.
This is my job. Make them run it.
They'll know it's fine. It's not a bad idea.
Jerry, get under center. Let's run a tush push right now.

Speaker 1 You,

Speaker 1 you and me, Jerry, and let's figure out how dangerous this thing is. Yeah, they'll be banned in a heartbeat.
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 1 All right, let's get out of this thing. Can't wait to see what happens in old Minnesota with the new rule changes.

Speaker 2 Ladies, is everyone trying to fix their health concerns with unproven gummies and tricks? Well, thank goodness, low libido has a real clinically proven treatment. Lolbido can be so frustrating.

Speaker 2 But there is a treatment called Addi, ADDYI. Addy is the first and only FDA-approved pill proven to boost sexual desire in certain premenopausal women.
Isn't that great?

Speaker 2 A clinically proven option for your low libido that comes from a doctor, not a gas station. Learn more at Addy.com and take charge of your sexual health with a treatment that's backed by science.

Speaker 2 Remember, that's Addi, ADDYI.com.

Speaker 2 Addy, or flavansarin, is for premenopausal women with acquired generalized hypoactive sexual desire disorder, HSDD, who have not had problems with low sexual desire in the past, who have low sexual desire no matter the type of sexual activity, the situation, or the sexual partner.

Speaker 2 The low sexual desire is troubling to them and is not due to a medical or mental health problem, problems in the relationship, or medicine or other drug use.

Speaker 2 Addy is not for use in men or to enhance sexual performance.

Speaker 2 Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is increased if you drink one to two standard alcoholic drinks close in time to your Addi dose.

Speaker 2 Wait at least two hours after drinking before taking Addy at bedtime.

Speaker 2 Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is also increased if you take certain prescriptions, over-the-counter or herbal medications, or have liver problems.

Speaker 2 Low blood pressure and fainting can happen when you take Addy, even if you don't drink alcohol or take other medicines. Do not take if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in Addy.

Speaker 1 Jason, I think it's time to get to what, you know, one of our favorite segments. Yeah, baby.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's time.

Speaker 1 It's time.

Speaker 1 How do you,

Speaker 1 for the New Heights Film Club, can you do like the projector sound?

Speaker 1 It's time.

Speaker 1 Projector sound.

Speaker 1 Brought to you by Reese's and their new peanut butter and jelly cups.

Speaker 1 For this installment of New Heights Film Club, we are reviewing the cult classic childhood favorite, potentially greatest,

Speaker 1 dare I say, kids movie of all time. God damn, there were so many good ones in the 90s too, man.
I don't know. I don't know.
I don't know. I think this one is definitely up to percenters to argue.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's up there. The 1993 classic.
Ooh,

Speaker 1 93 was a good year, man. What happened in 93? Michael Jordan won his third NBA championship in 1993.
Nice, nice, nice. Well, they also released uh The Sand Lot.
I don't know. We re-watched it.

Speaker 1 I love watching kids' movies again at a later time

Speaker 1 because you think about the movie differently, especially being a dad. Now, I thought about the whole relationship of

Speaker 1 Smalls and the stepdad and kind of what Smalls is going through in a much different light than I had ever thought of the movie. But, Trav, what were your initial thoughts as an adult?

Speaker 1 As a parent, would you ever like,

Speaker 1 i feel like do kids even go outside anymore and like go to the go to the park and and play baseball i used we used to do that like at least once a week well i don't know that we did it once a week but we did a lot we would go to fairfax dude i went to court lenovo and played almost every week it was insane First of all, this movie takes place in a different time where parents just let their kids do whatever they want.

Speaker 1 They just let them go outside. And then you said to come back when the street, you had to come back once the street lights come on.

Speaker 1 That was the the rule boy and you got a good old ass whooping and we were around right for kind of the start of that going away a little bit like i think there was a whole scare in the 90s that everybody was trying to kidnap your kids

Speaker 1 as if anybody wants these fucking things nobody wants your fucking kid what person in their right mind wants a fucking kid it's the fucking biggest goddamn burden you could like if that thing wasn't biologically associated with me well i would adopt too actually if i'm if i'm being honest i love kids but let's be sensitive to the people that actually have gotten their kids kidnapped okay that's fair that's fair the best line ever is ed kelcey saying kidnapped they fucking take they bring you right back yeah

Speaker 1 if they got kidnapped there they bring you right back i ain't worried about that one

Speaker 1 oh gosh i just remember the don't take candy from a stranger like if anybody comes up to you offers you candy don't take it in my head i'm like i'm definitely taking candy If somebody offers it to me, are you fucking an idiot?

Speaker 1 I'm definitely taking that candy. Free candy?

Speaker 1 I'm in. There's definitely a push.
I think that scared a lot of parents from letting their kids go out. Dad definitely let us go out, but he always knew where we were at.

Speaker 1 And I don't know if you know this, but I would see him riding his, he would drive by and he would make sure everything was all right every once in a while. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I mean, definitely we could have been kidnapped for sure. But it was the third time.

Speaker 1 The real question is, was he just doing that for us or was that an excuse to get out of the house, stop at the wings down the street? He's going to go get some mommy's guns. He's going back home.

Speaker 1 Yeah, sweetie, don't worry.

Speaker 1 They're all good. They're up at the park.
Where'd you get the wings, Ed?

Speaker 1 What?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, I think it's so good for kids to go out and just play

Speaker 1 unaccompanied by adults, to be honest with you. Yeah, you grow up.
Yeah. And there's so many awesome moments in this movie that

Speaker 1 it's kind of, I don't know if it would be classified as like a coming-of-age movie, but it definitely catches Smalls at a part in his life where he's moved into a new city, doesn't have any friends, he doesn't have a father figure that's worth a shit.

Speaker 1 He's got a good group of guys helping him see the light of day, man. His mom encourages to go outside and make friends, and the friends make fun of him and bully him a little bit.
Boss, the best.

Speaker 1 But Benny tells him, like, hey, fuck those guys, man. Whatever.
Just go fuck. And like, there's so many positive ways of dealing with people making fun of you to not having friends.

Speaker 1 Just go get out of the house. Get the fucking out of the house.
Get the fuck out of the house. You're having a little rough day.
Get the fuck out.

Speaker 1 You're going to go find somebody that you're going to get along with. I promise you.
Just get the fuck out of the house.

Speaker 1 But there's just so many great moments of like positive mental

Speaker 1 relationships and

Speaker 1 kind of like

Speaker 1 how to cope with,

Speaker 1 you know, maybe being somebody with a single parent who's now in a new relationship.

Speaker 1 And I think that the whole backdrop of baseball is just perfect. Like,

Speaker 1 like baseball is the sport. I wrote this down because it really stood out more watching it as an adult.
Like,

Speaker 1 this whole movie is really about legend, right? And the sport of baseball is about legend. Legend, yeah.
Because it's so old, there's these stories of like shooting Joe Jackson and the babe.

Speaker 1 But part of it, like the reason it's so much kind of like folklore is because cameras weren't around. And like, it's just like word of mouth.
Like, all we know about is so much more.

Speaker 1 There's no more legends anymore. There's no more legends.
Everything is on video. Everything.
Exactly.

Speaker 1 But like. All of these baseball stories and these figures are larger than life.
And then within the movie itself, you have Hercules and the beast and Wendy Peppercorn, the highly sought-after

Speaker 1 unicorn.

Speaker 1 Just because you watched the movie and everybody got on our ass, it'll be Wendy Peppercorn forever.

Speaker 1 And like Benny the Jet, Piccolin, like it's all just these like larger-than-life stories and folklore. And

Speaker 1 I don't know, it just like makes you, it was so well done with the sport of baseball, why everybody loves baseball, how kids associate things.

Speaker 1 This kid lacks a father figure, lacks friends.

Speaker 1 And so many of us, as young kids and boys, or girls, you look for these like role models in your life and you are drawn to these larger-than-life characters and the athletes of the time, and you make friends.

Speaker 1 And I just think it was a, it was a, it was a really just awesome depiction of

Speaker 1 the

Speaker 1 importance of sports, the importance of friendship, the

Speaker 1 specialness,

Speaker 1 and the ability to learn from sports like babe ruth yeah

Speaker 1 heroes are forgotten but legends never die like all of these things that like there's a bit of like the the the magicalness of like hope and and like and you find you're that camaraderie and that like that chemistry with with your friends and like especially it being like new friends or like something that you you you all are encountering for the first time and getting through that.

Speaker 1 Dude, that scene where Benny's getting chased by the dog is one of the most epic.

Speaker 1 Like, I forgot how epic that fucking scene was where he's like, literally getting chased all throughout the entire city. Like, imagining that as a kid.
Oh, my God.

Speaker 1 Right?

Speaker 1 It's so good. Dude, insane.
And the dog being this like, like, magical beast the entire movie. And Benny's the one eventually who gets the better of it.

Speaker 1 And even like Small's going, being terrible at baseball to a point that everybody's laughing at him.

Speaker 1 And instead of like some teacher coming up and being like, hey, don't make fun of Smalls, like Smalls fucking heads up, Benny's like, hey, fuck those guys. Go out there.

Speaker 1 I'm going to hit you this flyball. Just put your glove up, right?

Speaker 1 He catches it, he throws it, and then everybody loves Smalls. And it's like,

Speaker 1 there's a beauty in Smalls taking care of that with the help of his friend rather than like

Speaker 1 some authority figure like assisting this kid. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 If there's like a different level of like coping with some of these dynamics that I think a lot of the times we get nervous to put our kids in these situations or that our kids are going to experience these.

Speaker 1 But in reality, they're all really important for kids to go through this.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 this writer, I'm sure, was writing from a lot of personal experience. These end up being like cemented into your brain as like huge pivotal moments, right? And I don't know.

Speaker 1 It was was just really well done. I don't know.
That's all I got from it. Yeah.
And also, if you're not making fun of your friends, like you're doing friendship wrong.

Speaker 1 Like that watching that movie, I'm like, dude, this is exactly what my friendship group is today. Like we still have that little kid in us that is just like, I'm going to fucking roast my friend.

Speaker 1 And he's going to probably get me back in some form or some way. And

Speaker 1 it's just going to be hysterical for everybody to be a part of. And it's also going going to show, like, hey, it doesn't matter what you look like, you know,

Speaker 1 where you come from, what you do. Everybody can have fun making fun of each other and still find that love and appreciation for each other at the same time.
Yeah. And

Speaker 1 I like that Small, like, Smalls doesn't listen. He gets discouraged a little bit by the guys, but then he listens to the guy that's uplifting him, Benny.
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 He's like, all right, I fuck with this guy. This guy's on my side and he's hitting the ball.

Speaker 1 And there's a lot of like really good positive themes of like like relationships mentally, how to cope with adversity and new scenarios, and trying to achieve new tasks, leaning into your strengths.

Speaker 1 He makes the erector set because he's a smart kid to try and get the baseball back. And it's all backdropped by maybe one of the best soundtracks I've ever been a part of.

Speaker 1 I mean, every

Speaker 1 single song is just like, oh, is

Speaker 1 so good. I was going to say, it's crazy that

Speaker 1 we're just as far away from that movie as that movie was from the year it was depicted in the film. Oh, wow.
I didn't know that. So, 1962 was the year it was depicted.
It came out in 93.

Speaker 1 We are now 32 years from 1993.

Speaker 1 And those are 62 and 93 were 31 years apart. That's crazy.
That is nuts. Yeah.
That is a great fun fact. I think the scene with the fireworks and Ray Charles saying

Speaker 1 America of the beautiful, America. Dude.

Speaker 1 It's

Speaker 1 fucking magical. Oh,

Speaker 1 yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay. Yeah, man.

Speaker 1 The fireworks going off, just the sounds of the fireworks and how, dude, it was epic. It's incredible.

Speaker 1 Have you ever tried

Speaker 1 Chew?

Speaker 1 I've had Dip. I don't know that I've, I think I've already tried Chew one time.
My one buddy, Jeremy Gatto, I shouldn't even say that. One of my buddies was big into Chew for a little bit.

Speaker 1 Grown-ass adults. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So you're like, oh, no, Jeremy. Jeremy might get in trouble with his parents.

Speaker 1 My guy, Jeremy,

Speaker 1 he used to chew a little bit. Jay, Gatta, what's up, boy?

Speaker 1 You.

Speaker 1 Shout out. Shout out to all the Gattas, man.
Chew didn't really do much. Have you ever done Chew? No, I haven't.
I've done Dip one time. Chew didn't do it.
Dip? I did twice.

Speaker 1 I did it up at a little higher ground, but go ahead. Dip made me super loopy and I threw up.
Chewed every time. I tried it like three times.
I didn't get it. I never got into it.

Speaker 1 every time i was like all right well my body's just not into this yeah i never got into that one which sandlock character well we all travis is benny the jet

Speaker 1 listen i had pf flyers growing up man let's go you were i will say you were also the magnetic person you know what i mean like not like not just saying that to you you were always like the character that everybody like came to for like encouragement like that was your personality within like the friend groups it felt like yeah I mean,

Speaker 1 I'll take that if you're going to say it. I will say it for sure.
I think there was a little, there was a little bit of all of us in

Speaker 1 there. I think you were, I think you were Squints.
You were a fucking nerd. You were a nerd growing up.

Speaker 1 Sneak kissing Wendy Peppercorn.

Speaker 1 You knew it's the only way you're getting one.

Speaker 1 Bold move. I mean, listen, it's a good thing Squints was so young.
Because you pull that move as a child. It's kind of like, oh, that was kind of

Speaker 1 ballsy move. Ballsy move.
You Silly, silly. You do that as like the same age or older, let alone.
You're going to be arrested. I'm getting arrested, son.

Speaker 1 All right, come here.

Speaker 1 We're going to be giving you a good talking too. You can't be doing this type of shit out here.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Iconic, though. Was there a Cleveland Heights version of Salem? There was one on, there was 100%.
I mean, I.

Speaker 1 All the guys, all the guys that I played baseball with, and it wasn't just baseball, but all the guys I played travel baseball with,

Speaker 1 a lot of Jesus kids, a lot of St. Anne's kids,

Speaker 1 a lot of Heights kids. We all would go up to Cortlen Oval or St.
Anne's or Fairfax. Forest Hills.
Yeah, Fairfax as well. We used to go up there.

Speaker 1 We would always find a way to go up there with a ball and a bad and a glove and just, you know, have some fun until we lost the ball because we hit it into somebody's yard. It's literally, yeah.

Speaker 1 It's the same thing. It's literally that.
Yeah. That's one of the reasons it's so beautiful.
And the fence in particular, like at Fairfax, the left side of Outfield is completely open. Yeah.

Speaker 1 But the right side of Outfield was was a fence just like that.

Speaker 1 And if you hit it over that fence, the game was over. Like there wasn't another ball.
Like that was the

Speaker 1 climbing this fence. This fence was like the Great Wall of China.
It was fucking enormous.

Speaker 1 The only difference was there wasn't like a dog that everybody was afraid of, but it was the end of the game, if anybody had over there.

Speaker 1 Yeah, nobody was going in the family's backyard. And we also played other sports.
We played roller hockey.

Speaker 1 At Roxborough Elementary, they had an old basketball caged in court where they had cut the basketball hoops off at like four foot and for some reason left the posts in the ground. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 And we would go up there, roller hockey, and we would play and we would play posts. And if you hit the post, it was a goal.
And we would play two on two, three on three, however many guys came up.

Speaker 1 The majority of the sandlot games that we played, though, were I would always play like two on two or three on three football up at St. Anne's.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 We would play it on like this, the thinner part of grass. And if you got close, we would play, if you were on grass, we would play tackle.

Speaker 1 But if you got close to the cement, you had to do two-hand touch. I remember that.
Yeah, you weren't allowed to tackle close to the cement. Good rule.

Speaker 1 Nobody wanted to go home fucked up and have to explain to your mom. You got fucked up.
What else? Yeah, be nice to the dorky kid who can't throw a baseball. No, don't be nice to him.

Speaker 1 That's the whole point of the movie. You make fun of the kid until he learns to throw the baseball.
Yeah, but there was one guy that

Speaker 1 did. No, that didn't.
That realized it was getting too far. And this guy has no confidence now.
So we got to, you know, build him back up.

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 we got to build him back up, baby. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 That's the best part about being a friend. You build somebody up just to chop them down at the beach two minutes later.

Speaker 1 I'm just going to be honest.

Speaker 1 Without the kids making fun of him, then he doesn't feel like he accomplishes anything. There you go.
You're right. You know what I mean? You need that.
You need

Speaker 1 your friends. You need it.
You need your friends to cripple you with just like.

Speaker 1 And you need your parents to cripple you. You need your parents.

Speaker 1 To embarrass the shit out of you.

Speaker 1 What else do we got? MVP of the movie. All right.
Who are we going? MVP of the movie. We got Squints, Ham Porter.
I think Porter's got to be the...

Speaker 1 Porter's like, Porter's like my guy, Patty Banks, man. He is.

Speaker 1 He reminds me so much of Patty Banks. He walks in and everybody's just happier because Porter is in the house.
He's going to say something just off the walls that nobody's like.

Speaker 1 All right. And you could tell like how Porter talks to everybody.
Bacon has been talking to grown-ups like he talks to them now since he was five years old. It's so true.
Like, why the fuck?

Speaker 1 Why are we running like this? Yeah. He's a talk-do-har lacrosse coach.
Why do we, all right, how about how about you guys run since I'm the goalie?

Speaker 1 Benny the Jet, definitely the MVP of the movie. I think, I mean, he saves the day, saves the ball,

Speaker 1 saves smalls. 100%.

Speaker 1 All right. I take it back.
Wendy Peffercorn was, was, I mean, she was pretty. She's pretty good looking.
Thank you. I'll be honest.
I'll be honest.

Speaker 1 I'll take that loss. I think it's just like the old school, like clothing and hairstyle is just not for me, but she was pretty good.

Speaker 1 I love the American nostalgia, just like the pure American-ness of the movie. Dude, it's so good, man.
It's just beautiful.

Speaker 1 They did such a good job of getting all these different ethnicities in there. And, you know, baseball really brings us all together type feel.

Speaker 1 And baseball being America's sport as as well. So

Speaker 1 I'm a big fan of the ragtag sandlock guys beating the travel baseball team and their fresh new bikes and uniforms.

Speaker 1 I'm always a fan of Silver Spoon fucks getting their asses handed to them by working class people.

Speaker 1 Shout out to the public schools, baby. Yeah, exactly.
Playing.

Speaker 1 How about the fact they're all just playing baseball in blue jeans?

Speaker 1 Could you think of a more uncomfortable piece of equipment to play a sport in than they didn't they didn't have dick sporting goods back then dude? They didn't have just like

Speaker 1 just chafing their asses off. Like they got to be just like jungle route out the fucking wild.
The 60s were a different day and age. Yeah, man.
Yeah, they must really love baseball.

Speaker 1 They're playing baseball and blue jeans. Yeah, but you got to love baseball.

Speaker 1 You did everything in fucking blue jeans back in the day. All right, let's give it a little film club PFF grade for the movie.
Jason, what do we got? The plot. The plot.
What out of 10?

Speaker 1 What do we got? Well, PFF is out of 100, right yeah we're going plot all right plot we're going out of 10

Speaker 1 we've been doing all the other ones out of 100 is that right i thought we'd been doing them all out of like 8.5 or like

Speaker 1 it's been like 80

Speaker 1 like 83 i promise you i promise it's all the same it will end up being the exact same plot i'm gonna say

Speaker 1 i think the plot i don't know that you can have a better plot of a movie for like a kids movie and like teaching like tools and ways to cope with all these like different things and the

Speaker 1 legend that like the continual theme of like these larger-than-life figures. I just thought it was all just, it's all beautiful.
I'm going. It's up there.

Speaker 1 I mean, I hate to give 100, but we got to give it like an Aaron Donald level. I got to go like 90.
It's got to be like a 95.

Speaker 1 It's got to be like, this thing should be defensive player of the year type plot, right? I'm, I'm down with it. I'm down.
I don't know a movie that has a better plot, so I'm going 99. Let's go 99.

Speaker 1 We'll give it the great, the,

Speaker 1 what's it called? Um, the great one: 99 out of 100. All right, okay.
Acting, acting for a kid's movie, fucking incredible, if I'm being honest with you. Like, I thought it was unreal.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I'm with you. And then you got James Earl Jones.
Gosh, just one of the best actors of our entire town. Our entire lives.
If we're being honest, he plays the blind man better than Stevie Wonder.

Speaker 1 Hey, he's not the only one with these accusations shout out to stevie all right acting i mean for a bunch of kids i got to go 99 again i'm going the great one again

Speaker 1 i love this movie so all right how well it holds up still holds up i mean to me i might be a little biased i might be biased uh did you have the girls watch it i tried to i mean the girls are at an age wyatt is the only one that's really going to sit down and watch a movie like this yeah ellie kind of at times, she got a little bit scared at like the Hercules, like when

Speaker 1 Squints is telling the story in the tree house and stuff like that. But to me, it holds up 99.
But I think to the regular people, to like the regular public, probably isn't a 99, but screw the rate.

Speaker 1 I mean, we're the ones rating it. So 99.
It's nostalgia for me. Baseball.

Speaker 1 I mean, 99. This is the essence of baseball.
Yeah, there really is. I don't think there is a better baseball movie.
It really hits it like the beauty of baseball. It has Americana.
It has like

Speaker 1 legend and heroes and like the folklore embedded within the story itself. And it combines it with like Henry Aaron and Babe Ruth.
And like, it's just all just so

Speaker 1 it gets to the essence of what makes baseball so incredible. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Wendy Peppercorn, listen, she was better than I thought, but I'm not giving Wendy Peppercorn a 99. I'm just not.
I'll give her a 90. She was hot.
I can't go 90. I can't give it like a nine out of 10.

Speaker 1 I can't.

Speaker 1 We'll be in the middle. What is it? I'll go 80.
Let's give her 85. 85.
85. So 87.
87 is a good number. I like it.

Speaker 1 No, I'm giving her 80. I'm giving her 80.
Oh, you're giving her 80. All right.
So 85. 85.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 What do we got? What's the what's the PFF? The official PFF grade for

Speaker 1 drum roll. It looks like it's a

Speaker 1 99.2.

Speaker 1 What?

Speaker 1 There's no way that's the average.

Speaker 1 Somebody did the math. Dude, that is so wrong.
So wrong.

Speaker 1 How did you get

Speaker 1 more than 99?

Speaker 1 How on earth did it get more than 99 when there's not a single fucking...

Speaker 1 This is good. This is

Speaker 1 quick average math by Travis Kelsey has disclosed Brandon's error. 96.2 the wave.
Is that an accurate? Was it? Was it the wave? It was

Speaker 1 103.7.

Speaker 1 1037

Speaker 1 the wave.

Speaker 1 Or 107.3.

Speaker 1 96.2. I think it's a pretty solid rating.
