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

Speaker 1 The end of the 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 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 kilbasa.
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 head, you know what you're getting. Boar's head.

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 Let's do this podcast. It's the best thing ever.
Who doesn't love the podcast? This is my full-time job now, Travis. I don't know if you know that.

Jason, let the fan club know. Yes.

Speaker 1 Yes, we do. All righty, we got another great episode for you.
92%er Swifties, whoever's tuning in these days, we're going to talk about Travis hitting some dingers in Cleveland.

Speaker 1 And maybe us trying to buy the Eagles.

Speaker 1 Probably. It's a steep price.
I don't even know. It just is in the rundown.
I think

Speaker 1 intern Brandon wants us to say that we're going to buy the Eagles, but we can't afford the Eagles.

Speaker 1 Nor,

Speaker 1 yeah.

Speaker 1 What were you about to say? You don't want to buy the Eagles? What?

Speaker 1 Were you about to say, nor do you want to buy the Eagles? No, I didn't say that.

Speaker 1 You said nor. Nor do I think they'd sell the team to both.

Speaker 1 Well, that's 100% true. Why would they? Why would they sell the team? Yeah, no, that makes sense.
All righty. But first, as always,

Speaker 1 New Deals. New news.

Speaker 1 All right, now. Kids' Choice Awards.
Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelsey are nominated for a Kids' Choice Award. You guys are up for favorite male sports star of the year.
Wow. All right.
Nice.

Speaker 1 Man, that is a... That's pretty cool.
That's a category. I'll tell you, yeah, I'll be a part of that nominee.

Speaker 1 This is this is similar to the Oscar for

Speaker 1 best lead actor that Roberto Medini won.

Speaker 1 And Travis, you're up for it. Yep.
All right. Well,

Speaker 1 who else is in there? Is me, Pat, and who else? You guys, Patrick Moon to Travis Kelsey are facing off against Cristiano Ronaldo, LeBron James, Lionel Messi, and Stephan Curry. Hmm.

Speaker 1 Interesting. That one, what the fuck?

Speaker 1 That's an incredible list. This is insane.

Speaker 1 I mean, it's insane that my name's even in there. Pretty cool.
Dude, you're in the same award nomination

Speaker 1 as

Speaker 1 Lionel Messi, the greatest soccer player

Speaker 1 this decade. The greatest that's ever played.
Cristiano Ronaldo, the greatest soccer player of this decade. There you go.
LeBron James. I think he plays basketball.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I'm pretty sure him and Steph Curry both played. And Steph.
Steph Curry.

Speaker 1 I think they both have like the top of their game. Just goes to show you how, you know,

Speaker 1 impactful the NFL is.

Speaker 1 I think Pat Mahomes is right up there.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, it makes sense that both you and Pat are in this. The more I think about it, I mean...
Does it make any sense? Dude, you guys have won two of the last two Super Bowls.

Speaker 1 Yeah, three in the last five.

Speaker 1 You're going for a third one. In a row.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 In the sport of football, that's pretty ridiculous.

Speaker 1 I think the more I think about it, it makes sense. My one question is you can vote at this link.
I'm not going to say the whole thing because it's a long link, but you can vote here.

Speaker 1 It's the kids' choice award. Are they vetting to make sure that kids are only

Speaker 1 voting on this?

Speaker 1 How do they do that? You got the wrong guy. No vetting.

Speaker 1 So it's not the kids' choice awards, it's just the choice awards. No, it's Nickelodeon, so it's kids.
Yeah, but how do they know if it's kids? I mean, let's be honest.

Speaker 1 Most of the people voting in this might not be kids. Well, they probably are kids.
I mean, dude, if it's kids, you're winning this by a fucking landslide. You think so? You think I got the kids?

Speaker 1 I honestly think it's fucking. I'm just letting you know, my demographic when I used to go outside used to be fat-hairy guys.

Speaker 1 That used to be who,

Speaker 1 like, if I was out in public, was going to stop me and say, hey, I like you, Jason Kelsey, football guys, fat-hairy guys. Now I go out in public routinely,

Speaker 1 14-year-old little girls. That is like where my bread and butter is at.

Speaker 1 12 to 14-year-old little girls are like, oh, my God,

Speaker 1 you're the brother of Travis Danny, Taylor Swift. So I don't think there's a chance in hell that you're not winning this award if it's truly chosen by children.
Nice, man.

Speaker 1 Might as well just give you the award right now. I'll make sure I keep influencing the kids to do the right things in this world.
Let's just keep doing that.

Speaker 1 SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick Starr will host the event live on Saturday, July 13th. Yeah, were you ever a big SpongeBob guy? No, you were, though.
No, what are you talking about?

Speaker 1 You used to watch it all the time. I hated it when you watched it.
I did not watch SpongeBob SquarePants. It was that and Dragon Ball Z.
I was just like, I definitely watched Dragon Ball Z.

Speaker 1 I got to go outside. I did not watch SpongeBob like that.
You are completely ridiculous. So, what other one was it? I watched Cartoon Network in general.
SpongeBob. Oh, Dexter's Laboratory.

Speaker 1 That's what we're doing. Dexter's Laboratory was a big one.
Ed, Ed, and Eddie. That was decent.
That was stupid enough to where I could enjoy it. Silly enough, I'll say.
I'll say silly enough.

Speaker 1 It wasn't stupid. Johnny Bravo.
You like Johnny Bravo. Yeah, I like Johnny.
I could watch Johnny. He didn't talk much.
Yeah, SpongeBob is a great show.

Speaker 1 I think it was a little bit late for when we were kids. It was just like a tick.
Like, it wasn't terrible, but I didn't like fall in love with it the way I fell in love with Doug and Hey Arnold.

Speaker 1 Doug was great. Hey, Arnold, average.
what were the disney ones the rocket uh yeah rocket power rocket power

Speaker 1 i was in on those for sure what was the what was

Speaker 1 some other disney ones i was i was with rocket power what was better the disney cartoons or the disney like just like films like brink and johnny tsunami dude those were so good what's your favorite disney era luck of the irish movie the ones that just came out on disney like because i'm pretty sure Brink didn't like hit theaters.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's what I mean. The ones that were just straight to Disney channel movies.
Gosh, it's such a good one. I'd have to see a list.
I really liked Brink. Brink was so good.
We were big-time

Speaker 1 rollerbladers in the Kelsey household. Hocus Pocus was great.
Ooh, Hocus Pocus. That was a good one.
Top 10. Here we go.
Top 10. Number one, Smart House.
Smart House wasn't bad.

Speaker 1 Two, Smart House was so good. Xenon, Girl of the 21st Century.

Speaker 1 Next. Halloween Town.
Good movie. Halloween Town.
I think that's the one I'm thinking of. Actually, like Halloween Town, yeah.

Speaker 1 You could take the. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I kind of like that one, Loki, more than Hocus Pocus, even though Hocus Pocus much better.

Speaker 1 It was a better movie. Yeah.
But that one timed up with our childhood a little bit more, I feel like. Hocus Pocus had the

Speaker 1 three witches in it, right? It did. It did.
Yeah. All right.
I was thinking of the one that was in Sex in the City.

Speaker 1 The older one, and then the other one. Luck of the Irish.

Speaker 1 Very underrated movie. I've watched it again.

Speaker 1 It's

Speaker 1 still slaps? Still slaps.

Speaker 1 Land of the Eerie.

Speaker 1 It's how he fools him at the end of the day. And being from Cleveland.
Oh, dude, what is that one called?

Speaker 1 Alley Cats. Alley Cats? I don't remember that one.
The bowling one. Man, that was a good one.
Johnny Tsunami 11. This list is fucking.
I just saw what it put ahead of Johnny Tsunami, and

Speaker 1 they are missing the mark.

Speaker 1 Even stevens movie what a great show that even stevens i was gonna say if we're talking movies there's that but if there's shows i always wanted to be uh the older brother in even stevens

Speaker 1 there's an older brother in even stevens yeah he's the i remember the older sports no he's like the sports god he plays every single sport and they have like a banner of him in the gym and he still goes there and he played uh he played more than three sports and i always wanted to do that yeah so that's pretty much it all these other movies are terrible

Speaker 1 This is

Speaker 1 tough critic. I'm sticking with Brink.
I'm with you. I think Brink was probably one of my favorite

Speaker 1 for sure. For sure.
Yeah, so you're going to win the award. This is great.
You all can vote at this link right here. Yeah.

Speaker 1 What do you get if you win?

Speaker 1 Dude, I didn't even know this was an award. Well, it's only the most prestigious athlete award that there is.

Speaker 1 It's kids' choice. Chosen by non-kids.
What else could you want in life?

Speaker 1 That's a good point.

Speaker 1 What else could you want besides a meaningless competition that Nickeloni had invented to get people to click these links and go to the websites?

Speaker 1 How the fuck did I get on the list? Dude, you're going to win. That's my favorite part.
Shout out to the kids. Shout out to LeBron James, Steph Curry, and Pat Mahomes.
Let's go.

Speaker 1 And our two soccer friends, Lionel Messi and Christiana, who I haven't met, but I'm going to call you my friends because I respect you guys' craft. Beerbole submissions.

Speaker 1 You guys stepped it up last week and decided to send some great videos. Thank you.

Speaker 1 We got tired of listening to intern brand and Jet Jay complain. We have around 400 submissions.
Wow. Nice.
Here are some of our favorites so far: team-doped up horses. Let's watch this one.

Speaker 1 Hello, New Heights. We are Chris and Sarah, a happily married, moving,

Speaker 1 fun-loving couple from Delaware. We love our Philadelphia sports teams.
Go Birds. We met 15 years ago playing beer pong and have been drinking partners and partners in life ever since.
Fuck you.

Speaker 1 We are team-doped.

Speaker 1 Climbing a pole.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 1 I love this.

Speaker 1 Committing to the bit.

Speaker 1 That's a great shot.

Speaker 1 It's clear talent. One, one flip.

Speaker 1 Oh, tornado jug. Tornado jug.

Speaker 1 Quarters. Good action.
Look at this. Quarters is a real talent.

Speaker 1 Look at these two

Speaker 1 hungry dogs and

Speaker 1 doped-up horses run faster. Damn, that's pretty good.
That's fantastic.

Speaker 1 I'm not going to lie. They're in.
The only thing I don't like is team doped up. They missed a golden opportunity to just be the secretariats, but I think they're definitely in.

Speaker 1 This is going to be a great team. Love them.
Second team up: the Booze Brothers. Clearly riffing on

Speaker 1 the Blues Brothers, which is another Ed Kelsey classic. Ed Kelsey classic, yeah.
Jason, Travis, the 92 percenters.

Speaker 1 We're the booze brothers. Dude, look at their sidebars.
They got some hits.

Speaker 1 Oh, they're looking the park traffic. We're on a mission.

Speaker 1 Do you look like John Gibbon and Belushi or what?

Speaker 1 We're 106 miles from Seattle. We have a full tank of gas, a half case of beer,

Speaker 1 and we're wearing sunglasses.

Speaker 1 I'm digging these guys.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 Love this.

Speaker 1 God, these guys are bringing it.

Speaker 1 Oh, catch, chug, poor.

Speaker 1 Well done, Booze Brothers.

Speaker 1 They made that look light work.

Speaker 1 I'm loving it. Great theme, great commitment to the bit.
You can tell they're going to be a lot of fun. That's what we want.
We want fun.

Speaker 1 We want people that are going to have fun, drink some beers, enjoy the beach. That's what we're looking for.
So, we're looking for team doped up horses, the Booze Brothers. Welcome.

Speaker 1 Welcome to the beer ball.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you still have until Friday, June 15th, to get your submissions in.

Speaker 1 So, yeah, if you want to get in and have a chance at winning $50,000, winning the prestigious Golden New Heights Cup, do more videos like that. Yeah, it's that easy.
Well,

Speaker 1 this is a real good story about Bronx and his dad, Ryan, real United Airlines customers.

Speaker 1 We were returning home and one of the flight attendants asked Bronx if he wanted to see the flight deck and meet Catherine Andrew. I got to sit in the driver's seat.

Speaker 1 I grew up in an aviation family and seeing Bronx kind of reminded me of myself when I was that age. That's Andrew, a real United pilot.
These small interactions can shape a kid's future.

Speaker 1 It felt like I was the captain. Allowing my son to see the flight deck will stick with us forever.
That's how good leads the way.

Speaker 1 Why choose a sleep number smart bed? Can I make my sight softer? Can I make my sight firmer? Can we sleep cooler? Sleep number does that.

Speaker 1 Cools up to eight times faster and lets you choose your ideal comfort on either side. Your sleep number setting.

Speaker 1 Mom and dad, uh, mom and mom, dad and dad, whatever, parents, are you about to spend five hours in the car with your beloved kids this holiday season? Driving to old granny's house?

Speaker 1 I'm setting the scene, I'm picturing screaming, fighting, back-to-back hours of the K-pop demon hunter soundtrack on repeat.

Speaker 1 Well, when your ears start to bleed, I have the perfect thing to keep you from rolling out of that moving vehicle. Something for the whole family.
He's filled with laughs. He's filled with rage.

Speaker 1 The OG Green Gronk give it up for me, James Austin Johnson, as the Grinch.

Speaker 1 And like any insufferable influencer these days, I'm bringing my crew of lesser talented friends along for the ride with A-list guests like Gronk, Mark Hamill, and the Jonas Brothers, whoever they are.

Speaker 1 There's a little bit of something for everyone. Listen to Tis the Grinch Holiday Podcast wherever you get your podcasts.
Done. All righty.
Get creative, ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 1 Keeping this thing moving. The biggest new news that we've ever given you guys.
What's that, Trav?

Speaker 1 We own a beer brand. Well,

Speaker 1 we're officially... Part owners.
We don't own the whole thing, but we.

Speaker 1 It's a good point.

Speaker 1 We're part owners. of a beer brand and not just any old beer brand.
Just the most wonderfully tasting. Am I allowed to show it? Yeah, can I show it? Yeah, just go like a quick one.

Speaker 1 Oh, you're gonna have to pause that one to catch that one. I don't think we're allowed to.
It can only be on there for like half a second. I think we're doing through the rules.
We own that.

Speaker 1 We wanted to introduce to our 92%ers that don't already know this beer because it has been out for a while now. It has been garage beer.
Cincinnati favorite. It is called garage beer.

Speaker 1 Why do we do this? Why did we do this? Why wouldn't we do this? I mean, we like beer. We love beer.

Speaker 1 So let's do beer. We love beer that tastes like beer.
Yeah. That isn't like making like a fancy like slogan or like trying to like push you to, you know, have less calories and all that.

Speaker 1 No, we just, we're just, if you want, if you like good beer, this is a good beer. We like beer that tastes like beer.
Yeah. This is a beer that you keep in the garage.

Speaker 1 And if it's not in your garage, maybe just take it to your garage where you can bring out the table saw.

Speaker 1 Because that's always safe.

Speaker 1 One beer.

Speaker 1 The fuck you saw. One beer is not going to pull a finger off.
I would advise not going overboard with the table saw, but. Do not drink and saw, ladies and gentlemen.
That is not a good combo.

Speaker 1 Let's say you just need to make one cut and it's a simple cut. Nope.
No complexness to it.

Speaker 1 No, don't do it. All right, let's avoid the beer to round the saws.
If you're doing woodworking, let's avoid the beers. Let's postpone the beers until after the wood cutting.

Speaker 1 Cut the wood, then the beer. Then the beer.
That's how it goes. If you don't believe us, which frankly, I wouldn't,

Speaker 1 believe Albert. Yeah.
Listen, our goal, we know

Speaker 1 we're in this. We want this beer to be enjoyed by the guys and people and women that drink beer, that enjoy beer.

Speaker 1 And I don't know that there's anybody that enjoys beer more than my friend Albert. Take a look at Albert here.
I see it, Albert. Albert's a big Keystone and Core's light guy.

Speaker 1 So it took him a lot to get him to try this beer out. Oh my God, that is very good.

Speaker 1 Look at how happy that

Speaker 1 went back for seconds. This is my favorite part.
Listen, wait, wait for this.

Speaker 1 Now, baby, it's that good.

Speaker 1 I'll drink the whole thing.

Speaker 1 Albert, longtime beer drinker, as you can see from the white hair on his beard. Albert is just a humble beer drinker, just like the rest of us.

Speaker 1 He likes to take the tabs off of his beers and put them in his pocket so that he can tell

Speaker 1 how many beers he had the next day. And I can't think of a better way to navigate a Saturday afternoon than by enjoying some garage beers.
Keep tabs and

Speaker 1 track of how many you drink. Yeah, because

Speaker 1 Lord knows we can't count that high. Well, yeah.
It's beer math.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so if you want to crack open a cold one, go ahead and find yourself a garage beer, ladies and gentlemen, and tell us what you think.

Speaker 1 Tell us us what you think because I'm curious on how everybody else feels about it because I'm pretty pumped up on it, to be honest. I love it.
Listen, it tastes good.

Speaker 1 It's beer-flavored beer made with quality ingredients, small batches, brewed. It is what it is.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Don't take it from us. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's the working man's beer. Take it from us.
It's the working man's beer.

Speaker 1 It's the tight end of beers.

Speaker 1 It's not a receiver. Dude, tight ends are cheap.
It's not a receiver.

Speaker 1 It's not a receiver. It's not a tackle.

Speaker 1 It's universal. This thing blocks it.
This thing blocks. It catches.

Speaker 1 It throws touchdown passes every once in a while. Hey, now.
It can line out wide. It can line in tight.
Name a beer that can do all five of those. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Can't. There isn't one.
Well, ladies and gentlemen, Garage Beer is officially a beer of the Kelsey household. Everybody involved, seriously, we appreciate you guys letting us be a part of the brand.

Speaker 1 We're excited for it, and we think that you guys, the 92%ers, should be excited too. And let us know what you think.
You're going to like it. You're going to like it so much.

Speaker 1 You're going to drink the whole thing. And I think this is my cue

Speaker 1 to put Benny to sleep. All right.
Now, let's get to some fan mentions of the week. What do we got, Trev? The nation is still talking about Jason's hygiene.
Oh, no, not Jason's hygiene.

Speaker 1 A dermatologist has officially weighed in from Morning on Merit Street show. Morning on Merit? Okay, what did they say? What do you say? Let's see.
Or he or she.

Speaker 1 Jason Kelsey's statements: true or false? Should we only be washing hot spots or are our feet part of a routine? Well, first of all, thank you for having me here.

Speaker 1 I was, as I was showering this morning, I looked down and I thought, am I going to wash my feet this morning?

Speaker 1 And yes, I absolutely did wash my feet. Okay.
However, Jason Kelsey, you are actually correct.

Speaker 1 You don't always have to wash every part of your body.

Speaker 1 And no, I'm not actually supported or funded by big soap, Jason, as well.

Speaker 1 I'm with you.

Speaker 1 All right. Yeah.
Well, I think that's a win. It's exactly where I was before I watched the video.

Speaker 1 I think that...

Speaker 1 Travis has not moved.

Speaker 1 It's all the same. It's all the same.
It's your preference is what he said. If you want to have...
But he did say,

Speaker 1 I just want to be clear, clear, he did say the hot spots. I want to say verbatim.
At one point, he said Jason Kelsey is correct. He did.
I think that happened in the video.

Speaker 1 I didn't hear any dermatology. Other than that, that's what I heard.
I think I just didn't need to listen to Dr. Ferber

Speaker 1 after anything else after that. I think I don't believe that Dr.
Ferber said, he said he washed his feet. I don't believe him.

Speaker 1 I think he just said that because he was on national television and he's afraid of being shamed. I do believe

Speaker 1 that he

Speaker 1 believe that he admitted that um i'm correct and that you don't need to wash vigorously every single inch of you don't have to even wash your ass there's people out here that don't do it no you do need

Speaker 1 no no it's a hot spot you gotta wash your ass whatever floats your boat finds remote yeah that's how that's how you get that's how you get jungle rot not washing your butt that's how you get that

Speaker 1 this is true but some people need to wash your butt you need to wash your taint you need to you need to watch you need to but if you're not don't feel weird about it just do your thing no wash it wash your ass with soap.

Speaker 1 But outside of that, there's no need for it. I'm just like, if you want to wash it, you can.
Your skin will be more unhealthy, but you can tell everybody, look at how clean I am.

Speaker 1 I just washed my feet and everything else, and I'm the cleanest person alive.

Speaker 1 And your skin will be more unhealthy, and you'll be doing yourself a negative, but at least you'll be able to tell everybody what a clean person you are.

Speaker 1 And then you'll be saved in public situations from having to admit that you like to do things that are actually healthy for you and that you just succumb to peer pressure because you don't want to be called dirty, which I don't give a fuck about because I know what's better for my skin.

Speaker 1 Got it. Out of the house.
Let's move on out of the house. Travis went back to Cleveland to hit some dangers.
A 2-1-6, baby. Some dangers.
He stopped by David and Joku.

Speaker 1 Stopped by David Njoku's celebrity softball game and faced off against fellow Ohio native and former teammate Kareem Hunt in the home run derby.

Speaker 1 Who would have thought Cleveland's finest would have been out there hitting dangers? Travis won the home run derby 11 to 10

Speaker 1 over,

Speaker 1 don't tell me, Warrensville Heights native Kareem Hunt. Close.
It was a W, Willoughby South. Oh, you went to Willoughby South.
I only went to Warrensville. Okay.
Willoughby South native, Kareem Hunt.

Speaker 1 When's the last time you swung a bat, Travis? I'll tell you what. The last time I swung a bat, like,

Speaker 1 well, obviously, I play in, I've played in like celebrity softball games before, but I actually got in the cage against John Lester right before COVID.

Speaker 1 John Lester. John Lester, Saw Young winner, John Lester.
Got in the cage. You can trust the guy with two first names.

Speaker 1 You can trust him to win you.

Speaker 1 You can trust him to win you a World Series. All right, fair enough.
Fair enough. He was throwing a complete game in the cage against what looked like some guys

Speaker 1 that were making their way onto the team or kind of like AAA, AAA guys trying to make the team in

Speaker 1 spring training. Okay.
Yeah. They said that I could get in there if I wanted to and get in a bat.
And I was like, what? Do you kidding me? Not just like him throwing me a fastball.

Speaker 1 Like actually, like he's working on his pitches. Nice.
And he's working on his endurance and everything to get ready for the season. Like he's actually playing, he's throwing an actual game, right?

Speaker 1 I didn't even see the first fastball go past me. And

Speaker 1 this is a winner. Yeah.
So it was, I mean, and then I started to lock in. The second fastball went by, completely missed it.

Speaker 1 Strike two. Threw me a a curve ball.
Didn't get over the plate. Got lucky with that one.
Threw me a cutter. The next, I'm thinking it's still got to be

Speaker 1 off pitch, right?

Speaker 1 Threw me a cutter. Foul tipped it.

Speaker 1 Foul tip. Foul tip.
Hey, got a piece of it. Foul tip.
Yep. Felt like that's big.
It was. Yeah, it was.

Speaker 1 I was thinking,

Speaker 1 I'm on it now. Yeah.
He didn't let me get fucking bad on the ball. I'm on it now.
Cutter again swung right over the top.

Speaker 1 Five pitches back to the dugout. See you later, beat it.
Yeah, just said, hey, thank you, Mr. Lester, for

Speaker 1 blessing me with this memory that I'll have forever. Thank you.
So that was really the last time I had a bat in my hand.

Speaker 1 And then, yeah, I mean, there's nothing easier than hitting a softball.

Speaker 1 So I was just hitting those things out of the park, baby. Well, you say that, but

Speaker 1 I don't know. I tried a home run derby.
Did not fare nearly this well. 11 home runs is a lot of home runs.
How many outs did you get? 10? No, they did it with time. So I got 30 seconds.

Speaker 1 You're hitting 11 home runs in 30 seconds.

Speaker 1 Yeah, 30 and then a timeout. So it was a minute.
So 30 and 30. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Dude, that's a lot of home runs in a minute. Well done.
It was fun, man. It was fun.
And Chief Njoku doing some great stuff around the

Speaker 1 Cleveland area. Obviously,

Speaker 1 the tight end for the Cleveland Browns. Love that.
Absolutely killed it last year.

Speaker 1 He's been slowly becoming one of the top premier tight ends in the league. And

Speaker 1 last year, him and Joey Flacco, man, they were connecting all over the field for some big time, big time touchdowns and big time gains.

Speaker 1 And it was just really fun to see him take off last year and to just take his game to the next level. He's a good player.
Very good player. So shout out to David and

Speaker 1 everybody that was involved.

Speaker 1 There were a lot of Cleveland ties

Speaker 1 that were running the entire

Speaker 1 softball game. And, you know, I'm just appreciative that I got the invite.
You know, it's always good to get back in front of Cleveland. Well, they gave you a big-ass trophy here for winning the

Speaker 1 Clemen Derby. Big-ass trophy.
Very nice. Very nice trophy.

Speaker 1 You also at one point had a Trident. What the? What's this? Yeah, so in the actual game, the Lake Erie Captains.
The Lake Erie Captains, what do you call it? Mascot. I'm not quite sure what it is.

Speaker 1 I don't think there was a mascot back when I was going to the games.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I see the mascot in the background of this photo yeah it looks kind of like a seagull yeah i think it's i think it's a play on uh like they're the captains of the sea and like that's zeus type deal because isn't zeus like

Speaker 1 zeus is the sea no pose is the guy

Speaker 1 but

Speaker 1 poseidon is not a a black seagull Yeah, you're right. I have no idea what the situation is.
Okay, perfect. Okay, awesome.
Just asking questions.

Speaker 1 I mean, it's a cool-looking trident. Yeah, and he handed it to me when I hit a home run in the actual game.
He handed it to me as I was riding third.

Speaker 1 Can we talk about you as a baseball player for a second? A lot of people don't know this, but Travis was a very skilled multi-athlete. Everybody knows about your basketball playing ability.

Speaker 1 We talked about that on the show and how you had.

Speaker 1 Offers to play at multiple universities, basketball, and college. But what people don't know is that you are a very talented baseball player.

Speaker 1 And the New Heights team has dug up an old article from the Athletic that actually went into detail in your baseball era that had some great quotes. So we're going to say them right now.

Speaker 1 On Travis is a Major League Baseball prospect, per coach Michael Bricker. Who the hell is Michael Bricker? Can you tell us that, Travis? Yes, Michael Bricker was my,

Speaker 1 he was the head coach for the champions.

Speaker 1 This is the Wooden Bat League you did in the Wooden Bat League in my college years when I got suspended. I

Speaker 1 wanted to keep the competitive juices going. So

Speaker 1 that and I didn't know if I was going to play football again. So I was like, well, maybe plan B is baseball.
I could really swing the bat.

Speaker 1 Well, you did the wooden bat league, having not played baseball in two years.

Speaker 1 And Coach Michael Bricker said Kelsey could have been another Kirk Gibson had he stayed in baseball. It's pretty cool.
It's a hell of a quote right there.

Speaker 1 Kirk Gibson could have been a good receiver, tight end type guy. I think they both chose good career paths.

Speaker 1 I think you're right on that one, Coach Michael Bricker. Can Major League Baseball players play in the NFL? Absolutely not.

Speaker 1 Do you want to weigh in on this? Is that necessary? I think so, yes. Travis.
Dude, athletes are athletes. Don't look at baseball players like they're all fucking Babe Ruth, okay?

Speaker 1 Just out of shape, fucking guy. Travis.

Speaker 1 I promise you, Jason, walk up to Aaron Judge and you tell me whether or not he'd be able to play football. I don't need to walk up to him.
He ain't playing football.

Speaker 1 Dude, I know so many guys that played base, that were really good at baseball that also played football. Yeah, I agree.
There are a lot of football players that are also good at baseball.

Speaker 1 But there's no baseball players that could play in the NFL. No.

Speaker 1 I just don't think there's a chance.

Speaker 1 What do you think is the big reason? Not tough enough? I mean, that's one part of it. Bo Jackson, Deion Sanders,

Speaker 1 either one of those two come to mind? Yeah, they were football players that could play baseball. I'm not negating that NFL players couldn't play in Major League Baseball.

Speaker 1 But what's the difference between

Speaker 1 their skill set in baseball?

Speaker 1 I don't... I just,

Speaker 1 I mean, maybe Kenny Lofton. Dude, if you never got Tommy John, you could have played in the MLB.
Again, football players could play Major League Baseball. I'm not negating that.

Speaker 1 But maybe that's just the path that they wanted to do. They didn't like football.
Maybe they didn't like it. That's kind of why I'm saying they would never be able to play.

Speaker 1 If I would have stopped playing football at that point and and I would have just started playing baseball because it was an easier path for me, would you be saying that I can't, I couldn't play football?

Speaker 1 I see what you're saying. No, it's a great argument and it's a fair argument.
I do think that there are some Major League Baseball players that potentially could have played in the NFL.

Speaker 1 Dude, you're trying to tell me right now that Randy Johnson couldn't have been a good quarterback? Yeah, maybe.

Speaker 1 I mean, he threw sidearms, so it might have come out a little funky, but. No, dude, it was just a whip.
That thing was just, it was just, it was, yeah, he just threw sidearm a little bit.

Speaker 1 He threw a little sidearm. He was pretty skinny, though.
The big unit was a lot of a lot of dick and bones wasn't a lot of meat

Speaker 1 he was ribs and dick

Speaker 1 we gotta get that guy some food man we gotta get that guy some food man

Speaker 1 yeah ellie de la cruz dude Do you catch, just go and type in Ellie De La Cruz highlights. All right, listen, you've talked me into it.
I'll watch Ellie De La Cruz. Dude,

Speaker 1 he's like the biggest, fastest,

Speaker 1 like

Speaker 1 just fearless dude I've seen on the baseball field. He's 6'5'200 pounds, Dravis.
Dude, I'm telling you, just watch him. Is he playing receiver? What's he playing at 6'5, 200 pounds?

Speaker 1 Definitely playing receiver. He's that fast.
Dude, he is flying.

Speaker 1 He's flying. It looks like he's as fast as Deion Sanders running around the bases.
That's fair. I will take back my statement.

Speaker 1 There are definitely Major League Baseball players that can play in the NFL.

Speaker 1 I just think if we're making a blanket statement. That was a bold statement.

Speaker 1 Deion Sanders was really, really fast. I don't know if he's that fast, but he is fucking flying, dude.
I believe you. There's been some really fast baseball players.
Oh, my gosh. Big boy, flew,

Speaker 1 fielders.

Speaker 1 Prince Fielder? Prince Fielder is going to play in the NFL.

Speaker 1 He's got a nose guard. I don't know.

Speaker 1 Dude, he could move.

Speaker 1 Big boy could move. Yep.
I don't know where we're going with this. Back to Travis.

Speaker 1 Was there ever a a point where you almost pursued baseball instead of other sports? We've talked about this. Yeah, we just talked about that.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 It was always something in the back of my mind that I knew I had a chance at if I wanted to give it a run. You know, I think

Speaker 1 my size and my athleticism, as well as the fact that I could throw a baseball, I could

Speaker 1 track a baseball in the outfield. Like, I felt like I would always get a chance.
So it was always in the back of my mind that I had that as a plan B, which is why I tried to, you know,

Speaker 1 play in 2010 when I got kicked out of school or when I got kicked off the team for a little bit.

Speaker 1 I was always just kind of like keeping that alive in a sense. Sure.
It was just, it's baseball such a slow game to me. And

Speaker 1 I really, really enjoyed baseball when I had a fun team to be around, when I had good guys.

Speaker 1 And like some of the all-star teams that I was on, just it, I couldn't find just the love for the game like I had in basketball or I had in football or even in hockey and lacrosse. I just knew that

Speaker 1 it was fun with the teams that I had been on and that I had a chance or at least I had interest from scouts and colleges

Speaker 1 that were looking at me to play. So it was like, all right, this is an option if I want to go there.
But for the most part, I just, I've always loved other sports more.

Speaker 1 But I will say this in playoff baseball,

Speaker 1 sign me up. See you excited.
I'll buy a ticket right now. Let me ask you this: you've played all four major sports in the United States.
You grew up playing hockey, grew up playing basketball,

Speaker 1 grew up playing baseball, grew up playing football. Yep.
Of those four sports, which guys

Speaker 1 are your least favorite that you'd want to hang out with? God damn it, Jason. That is such an unfair question.
It's a very fair question.

Speaker 1 I don't know how that is an unfair question.

Speaker 1 From the road that I took, the baseball players for sure. But

Speaker 1 at the same time, the baseball players.

Speaker 1 Every other sport was just so much more team-oriented. It wasn't just like, oh, my success on the team.
100%.

Speaker 1 And I just, I don't know.

Speaker 1 I feel like

Speaker 1 baseball players were very

Speaker 1 to themselves. The baseball players were very to themselves.
I was a guy that I was like, man, I want to be on the team. I don't want to just come to practice.

Speaker 1 Like, I want to hang out after practice and and just be around the guys and have some fun with my teammates.

Speaker 1 I want to build some chemistry so when I step on the fucking diamond, I'm having fun with it. You know what I mean? And not a lot of guys in the baseball world were doing that.
Now,

Speaker 1 I will say this: I have a fuck ton of people in the baseball world that I've met in the MLB that I fucking love. They're awesome.
I think the teams that have that kind of mentality, like

Speaker 1 the Phillies, like

Speaker 1 the Royals in 2015-14 when they were going to World Series. 100%.
I'm with you. Like getting to know Haas and Salvie and all those guys on those teams, Guthrie, you name it, man.

Speaker 1 Those guys really like cared about each other and loved to be around each other. A thousand percent.
In sports, when you get that, that's that's the love for sports that I have. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 That's the shit that I'm looking for. Can you explain the phrase, the legend of 6'6?

Speaker 1 What is this? I don't even know what this is. I don't listen.
I know exactly what it is. Can we move on?

Speaker 1 The legend of 6ix6.

Speaker 1 Long story short,

Speaker 1 I didn't always play baseball in high school. I was ineligible my first two years.
Third year, I was trying my hardest to get my SAT scores to match my

Speaker 1 grade average

Speaker 1 in school so that I would be eligible to receive a scholarship in college. So

Speaker 1 I was focused on that before I even went to the baseball team. But the head coach for the baseball team introduced me and

Speaker 1 gave me like

Speaker 1 how you introduce people on the show.

Speaker 1 He gave like the whole like pump-up introduction.

Speaker 1 He's 6'6 ⁇ . He's got a hell of an arm.

Speaker 1 It was just, it was funny. And it was the way, it was the one way that

Speaker 1 kind of like, what is it called? Like dehumanizing somebody or like making them more like

Speaker 1 basically i caught shit for that yeah i was like everybody just made fun of you with the rest of the team yeah so and i'm not even six six i'm six four and seven eighths so it was like it was the legend of six six is like oh what i could have been or what

Speaker 1 he gave he gave you a bill brasky speech bill brasski was

Speaker 1 5-0 in bar fights what was it bill braski skit that the uh snl used to do dude i forget. Bill Braski once drank an entire barrel of whiskey

Speaker 1 and then made out with Marilyn Monroe. That's the kind of speech you gave of Travis Kelsey.
Yes. And I had yet to even play high school baseball to that extent, really.
So there's really no like fun

Speaker 1 legend of 6'6. It was just something that I got clowned for because the coach introduced me.
Because the coach pumped you up. Everybody

Speaker 1 used my fake height that we would put on the roster.

Speaker 1 Bill Browski once showed me a video of him making love to my wife, and it was the most beautiful thing I ever saw. I remember that fucking job.
That's a great bit. I love that bit.
All right.

Speaker 1 Yeah, let's talk about this story about a high school game in a game against rival Beechwood. I would not call Beechwood a rival, but in a game against Beechwood, Kelsey came in as the closer.

Speaker 1 Cleveland Heights was up by two runs, but Kelsey was especially wild that day.

Speaker 1 He issued the three walks, gave up a double.

Speaker 1 The bases were loaded in a tie game when Kelsey plunked the opposing batter hard. Dude, Knobloch, is this Evan Knobloch giving this? Yeah, Evan Knobby.
Yeah. Right in the neck.
Keep it. Knobloch said.

Speaker 1 It's a terrible story. The winning run scored.
Kelsey walked off the field, took his glove, and hurled it over the fence above the third base dugout.

Speaker 1 The glove sailed into the stands on the nearby football field.

Speaker 1 I mean, I'd be pretty sore after that one, too, if I just walked through banners and then hit somebody to lose the game. Here's the real story.
The real story is my guy, Michael Johnson.

Speaker 1 Michael Johnson. Michael Johnson.
Yep. Shout out to the,

Speaker 1 I always call it the colony. Shout out to Tavco.
Tavco.

Speaker 1 We call it the colony. Used to be the colony.
Nobody knows about this. This is all Cleveland love right here.
This is the kids that we went to high school with and just

Speaker 1 the city that we grew up in. Yep.
Michael Johnson was pitching an unbelievable game, had given up maybe one decent hit up to this point, and he should have 1,000% finished the game.

Speaker 1 Coach put me into clothes, and I honestly, I don't even, I didn't even feel comfortable about going out on the mound. I am not a pitcher.

Speaker 1 I could hum it in high school, probably low 90s. You're being modest.
You could hit 94. You could get 94.
I had no idea where this shit was going.

Speaker 1 Absolutely no control. I'm pretty sure I sometimes used to close my eyes when I threw it just so I could throw it harder.

Speaker 1 That's what I did on that last pitch. I threw a fucking two-seam fastball and the thing just rose right into the kid's neck.
He got hit, fell on the floor. He sold it?

Speaker 1 No, he got, I mean, I fucking caught him, dude.

Speaker 1 It was

Speaker 1 that part was electric. Everything else was just pure misery.
Oh, gosh. So, yeah, I lost this the game.
I threw my glove. I then threw the trash can on the floor, acting like a sore loser.
And

Speaker 1 yeah, that was not my proudest moment. And of course, all my friends love to make sure they tell that story to everybody because that's what friends do.

Speaker 1 Knobloch said, I'm running in from left field and I have an obscured view.

Speaker 1 All I see is two legs sticking out of the dugout. Kelsey had tried to throw the trash can, flipped, fell over and bruised his ribs.

Speaker 1 It was like one of the like huge tin cans, like metal trash cans that come up to like waist high or some shit.

Speaker 1 Yeah, they make like a fire of it when I threw it on the ground, but when I did that, I had metal cleats on, slipped on the cement that was in the dugout. It was just, it was my proudest moment.

Speaker 1 And that's when I knew I should play football. Yeah, so Barry Egan is quoted in the athletic as saying, Travis Kelsey is the poorest and sorest loser I've ever been around.

Speaker 1 If you read that, yeah, no, that's not a good thing.

Speaker 1 No, it's a good thing. If you know Barry Egan, it reads completely.
If you know Barry Egan, it's a good thing. He means this in the utmost of

Speaker 1 that I fucking despise losing and that I'm very passionate when I don't win. I think that's what he's more so trying to get across.

Speaker 1 But at the same time, there have been moments that I haven't been very proud of how I've, you know, treated a loss. And this was one of them.

Speaker 1 Well, shout out to Barry Egan. Who do you think is the sore loser? Me or you? Me, for sure.
Think so? Yeah. Have you had any outbursts like that?

Speaker 1 Travis, you know me. What are you talking about?

Speaker 1 We were both cut from the same loins. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yep. We've had our moments.
This is true. This is true.
All right. It's a tie.
Yeah, you did apologize. We always apologize.
We know we're being stupid. Oh, for sure.
For For sure. Yeah.

Speaker 1 We do hate losing. Although I do firmly agree, especially for kids, losing is incredibly important.

Speaker 1 I think we put way too much emphasis on winning at high school and below age groups.

Speaker 1 I kind of hope my girls win just enough that they're confident, but lose enough that they don't think that they're the best.

Speaker 1 at what they do so that they're hungry to continue to like i think it's actually bad to win a lot when you're younger i think it's good to like lose a little bit but still think that you're good enough to win all of them that's like the medium that you need to be in right yeah would you agree yeah i'm with you

Speaker 1 i'm with you you need to lose enough to like despise it i won and to know that you can lose i won everything you won you won you lost a lot what are you talking about cleveland heights football you guys never went we made the playoffs yeah good point i thought you were talking about before you guys are good in basketball but you didn't win a state championship no you're right.

Speaker 1 I think it's good to be good.

Speaker 1 You don't want to be terrible.

Speaker 1 I was thinking of before that, like middle school. Yeah, you won hockey.
I won hockey,

Speaker 1 lacrosse. I mean, baseball, I won a lot.

Speaker 1 We won lacrosse, but it was a lower division. We didn't compete against the upper echelons of lacrosse.
We won division three. Yes, the same with hockey, too.

Speaker 1 We were double-A. We weren't triple-A.
Exactly. We would still go and get our asses handed to us by, like, Gilmore.
Fuck.

Speaker 1 Maybe your years. Not mine.
Come on now. Dude, I would beat the shit out of Gilmore.
You got your asses handed to you by some of these freaking private schools in Cleveland. Not in middle school.

Speaker 1 Well, then you weren't playing them. I did.
I did the ass kick in a middle school. If you would have played the Barons, you would have got killed.
1,000%.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 I went to a Barons tryout and I didn't feel comfortable on the ass. Come on now.

Speaker 1 Losing is important. That's what we're getting to.
You got to lose to know how much it sucks. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And don't be fucking sore losers kids that's not a good trait to have if you never get your ass kicked you're never gonna learn embrace it kids but hate it thomas edison said it hate it he he learned 9999 ways on how not to make the light bulb yeah finally the 10 000th time and listen

Speaker 1 he made a light bulb and how many times and and and he didn't get a trophy for the 9999 times he didn't make the light bulb yeah you know what i mean yeah but they were every bit as important as the time that he did.

Speaker 1 You don't need a trophy or, you know, you don't need to be happy that you're failing. You just need to hate it, but know that it's a process in order to

Speaker 1 get it right. And sometimes you got to throw a trash can when you lose a game for your entire team so that they know that you care.

Speaker 1 You're going to hate yourself.

Speaker 1 You're going to be a little baby. And people are going to call you the 6'6.

Speaker 1 And they're going to make fun of you.

Speaker 1 The 6'6. 6'5.

Speaker 1 Yeah, the 6'6. He lost us the game.
He's a loser. And you got to throw a trash can to let everybody know that you're a little bit crazy, so they can't make fun of you that much.

Speaker 1 It's kind of how it works.

Speaker 1 Way to bring it back. Way to bring it back.
All right, now here you got our little NFL news, ladies and gentlemen. NFL news.

Speaker 1 Not new news, NFL news. We are 40 minutes into the show.
We are 40 minutes into the show from what you guys have done, but me and Jason, we've been fucking around all day.

Speaker 1 Yeah, on this goddamn computer and microphone. So let's jump into some actual football news and talk about what you guys probably are here to listen about.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we're in mandatory minicamp starts this week for the Kansas City Chiefs. So

Speaker 1 I'll be in KC all week having some fun. We just did the amazing media day today, which was so much fun.
That's the best.

Speaker 1 I got told to stand there and look over my shoulder and point at my nameplate on the back of my jersey.

Speaker 1 That's the best, dude. It's the best.
It's all about me.

Speaker 1 What is it about getting older that you like pictures of the game? You just realized how much of that shit they're actually not going to use. And you're just like, this is so fucking silly.

Speaker 1 It's just a waste of time. Just take pictures from the games, use them.
Like, what are we doing? Yeah. Well,

Speaker 1 I'll do it for the in-house people because I know them on a personal level.

Speaker 1 But honestly, all the extra, like, extra production stuff, I'm just kind of like, no, no, no. I will see you guys later.
And I got some side eyes, but it is what it is.

Speaker 1 I just, I feel like doing that every single year for the same networks, doing the exact same thing. And it's just, I just, I'm too stubborn.
I'm old and I'm just an old, angry veteran at this point.

Speaker 1 I am, what was his name? Roy Kent off of Ted Lasso. I am just fucking, don't miss me with all the fucking extra shit.

Speaker 1 jeez

Speaker 1 take the picture. Can we just get out? Can I go to I'll I'd rather sit here and watch film than fucking do this.
I'd rather

Speaker 1 play baseball

Speaker 1 mandatory mini camp is the rest of the week. So we got three mandatory days where we get to compete, baby.
We get to go against the number one defense in the National Football League, baby.

Speaker 1 Was it the number one? It was either Baltimore number one or were you guys number one? They were fucking. It was one or two.
Either way. I know my defense won the Super Bowl.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I know they won the Super Bowl. It's very damn good.
We get to, I guess, do a full practice. So we'll be out there in about two hours, two and a half hours, whatever it is,

Speaker 1 flying around for a few days, have a red zone day and a conditioning test on Thursday and

Speaker 1 get out of town until the season starts back up in July. Minicamps, you guys still do 11 on 11 or are you guys strictly 7 on 7? No, we do it all.
We do it all. Yeah,

Speaker 1 we're under Andy Reed's supervision. We're doing it all, baby.
Fair enough. Yeah, minicamps are fun.
I mean, it's always fun for me. I get to go out there and compete.
Let's do it. I'm in.

Speaker 1 Go out there, run around.

Speaker 1 We got some plays that we got to get some good looks on. What kind of plays are they running? Is it mostly passing? None of your motherfucking business, son.
All right, fair enough. Fair enough.

Speaker 1 The Eagles are for sale. What? Next bit of NFL news.
I know, shocking. Jeffrey Lurie is supposedly, supposedly exploring a sale of a minority stake in the Philadelphia Eagles.
Oh, minority. All right.

Speaker 1 Trav, should we try and buy some of it?

Speaker 1 Well, you can't. You're playing.
I would rather, yeah, I would rather try and buy the Chiefs or be a minority stake owner in the Chiefs. I don't know that it matters how much a minority stake it is.

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

Speaker 1 It's a good point. It's a very good point.

Speaker 1 I would definitely try and maybe leverage just

Speaker 1 there is no leverage. What are we doing? There is nothing.
And also, you can't be.

Speaker 1 I don't think you can call a game or do anything like that if, because the whole Tom Brady thing, he wanted to have minority stake in the Raiders and it messed with his

Speaker 1 TV deals. TV deals? Yeah.
Listen, I'll back out of the TV deal right now if you tell me I can own the Philadelphia Eagles.

Speaker 1 What?

Speaker 1 No way. Come on now.
Are you kidding me? No way. Get to be an owner? That's like another level.
Can you name the other nine most valuable NFL franchises? The nine? There's nine others?

Speaker 1 Well, obviously, okay, let's see if we can do this. Should we write it down or should we just start listing them?

Speaker 1 You can go on the hand. Dallas Cowboys.
Yep.

Speaker 1 New York Giants. New York Jets.
San Francisco.

Speaker 1 I don't need to correct. I know when I'm correct.
I'll let you know when I need you saying correct, Brandon.

Speaker 1 So did I say it again?

Speaker 1 So it was Dallas? So Dallas is number one. Both New York teams are going to be up there because they're New York.
San Francisco.

Speaker 1 I would assume

Speaker 1 Washington is also up there. No, because the NFC, I'm telling you, dude, the NFC East is like a clean sweep.
It's crazy how the NFC East is up there. There's no way.

Speaker 1 I'm just letting you know.

Speaker 1 I'm going to say Steelers are up there. Patriots.
Rooney's got the Steelers up there. Green Bay has got to be up there.
Green Bay might be. Steelers are not.
Wow. You got to think about their market.

Speaker 1 That's the problem with the Steelers and Green Bay. I went off for tradition, I guess.
Yeah. All right.
I would say

Speaker 1 are the Rams valuable just because they're in L.A.

Speaker 1 Rams. That's correct, according to interim Brandon.
There's one more team. No, not Miami.
What team could we be missing? Is that a major market? The Bears.

Speaker 1 Did the Chiefs get in there? The Chiefs might be. No.
Bears.

Speaker 1 Chicago is a big city. Yeah, it is Bears.
Nice.

Speaker 1 Cool. That was fun.
Well, friend of the show, Rob McElhenney,

Speaker 1 might have already put in an offer. Rob, can we get in on this?

Speaker 1 What do I got to do?

Speaker 1 Stop trying to dive me in. This is you.
This is you. You're going to tell me you're going to turn it down.
Yes. You get an opportunity to be an owner of an NFL team.
You're going to say no? Yes. Why?

Speaker 1 Because I want to broadcast when I'm done playing. You want to broadcast? You're saying that right now.
You want to broadcast. Yes.
What do you want to do?

Speaker 1 I want to be right here and tell them about the game. The old bald coach, ladies and gentlemen.
That's what I'm fucking. I want to fucking

Speaker 1 do that. I want to be the talking head that calls the games.
How can we be an owner, but not be an owner? Like, if maybe a family member buys Kylie.

Speaker 1 Kylie buys a portion. Ooh, that's pretty cool.
How does that work?

Speaker 1 She would have to buy it with like out survivorship or like marital.

Speaker 1 So I'd have to give her it, which that'd be tough.

Speaker 1 Shut the

Speaker 1 God damn it.

Speaker 1 Kylie didn't sign up for that.

Speaker 1 That was fucked up. No.
You set up a shell company. NFL probably doesn't do their kind of research on that damn thing, right? 1,000% they do.
It's too much money not to be doing the research.

Speaker 1 I don't think it's ever going to happen. So it's fun to think about, though.
Yeah. All right.
You know, like when you

Speaker 1 go on Zillow and just look at houses that you can't afford? It's my favorite thing to do every day. I feel like that's kind of what we're doing right now.
Yeah. All right.
Well, let's say it.

Speaker 1 What team would you want to own if it wasn't the Eagles or Chiefs?

Speaker 1 Um,

Speaker 1 what team? I mean, the Browns, probably. If we're taking out the Browns, all like personal connections, what team would I want to own? Yeah, what team can Jason own? Well, we could all just own Green.

Speaker 1 We could just own Green Bay right now. All you got to do is buy stock.
That's one of the things I love about Green Bay is that they're a publicly traded football team.

Speaker 1 I wouldn't want to be West Coast. I'll go, I might go Bears.

Speaker 1 I like the Bears.

Speaker 1 Steelers is a good organization. Bengal.
We've got to take out the Bengals too, just because Cincinnati Bengals are out. Yep.
Anything with personal connections.

Speaker 1 I'd buy the Jacksonville Jaguars and relocate them to London.

Speaker 1 Now I'm in. Boom.
Now I'm in. Jesus.
That'd be awesome, man. Owning a team in a different country, that'd be sweet.
Duval Con is going to hate us.

Speaker 1 What major league franchise would you want to be most would want to own? NFL, NBA, NHL, or Major League Baseball?

Speaker 1 I'm taking it. Not taking into account business, just like which one

Speaker 1 selfishly would you want to be an owner of? I mean, hockey is the only one that's appealing. Right? NHL would just be so fun.
NBA, you got to deal with load management.

Speaker 1 You got to deal with, I mean, there's a whole bunch of just nonsense. Yeah.
Major League Baseball would be fun.

Speaker 1 I feel like there's the most like Moneyball has made Major League Baseball a lot of fun because there's like a lot of that analytic side of like doing that stuff. I wouldn't want to do all that.

Speaker 1 If I was an owner, I feel like I would just want to be there to like have fun. I wouldn't want to like have to deal with Moneyball and like

Speaker 1 that. I don't want to fucking...
It's too much for me. I don't want to deal with all that shit.
It feels like soccer, but I feel like everybody's buying a soccer team these days.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I don't think I'm in on soccer. I was for a second.

Speaker 1 I wanted to be a part of the Columbus crew. I mean, I might still do it.
I'm not going to lie. I might still do it.

Speaker 1 I mean, that'd be pretty cool. I do think NHL would be the most fun.
All right. Nice.
Well, let's get on to some other NFL news. Big Dom got the promotion of the century.
That's right. He did.

Speaker 1 Yes, he did. Big Dom DeSandro got promoted to senior advisor in the General Manager Chief Security Office game day coaching operations.
So I'm pretty sure he's doing more than he ever did.

Speaker 1 And now he'll actually be able to chokeslam the other opponents' players. I'm pretty sure he's not doing anything more than he's always done.

Speaker 1 He's just going to continue to be Big Dom and do a lot of things for the organization.

Speaker 1 But now he has the title of Game Day Coaching Operations, which officially makes him a coach on Game Day, which means he can break up fights.

Speaker 1 I love Dom. You can't not love Dom.
When you meet him, you realize why everybody fucking loves Dom.

Speaker 1 I think the best thing that's happened to this whole thing is just Dom cementing himself as a legend. On an even broader scale, because he is already a legend.
Who's the chiefs, Big Dom?

Speaker 1 Do you guys have? I mean, there's no other thing. I mean, Big Dom's just, there's only one Big Dom.
Yeah, dude, you can't create a position for a guy to come in and try and be that.

Speaker 1 He's just either Big Dom or he's not. Yeah, how does one become Big Dom? That's a question we got to ask Big Dom.
Yeah, I mean, he's the only one that knows. He's the only one person that knows it.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Travis is 6'6.

Speaker 1 You know, there's the real life Bill Braski's Big Dom.

Speaker 1 The legend. Yeah, there's only so many ways you can elevate

Speaker 1 the head of security. And it's hard to encompass titles and everything Big Dom does.
So I love that the Eagles are trying to do that.

Speaker 1 Listen, he is a part of our game day coaching operations. He helps with Nick Siriani helps with a lot of things on the sidelines.
So I think it's a deserving title. I don't think it's just like

Speaker 1 kind of having a little bit of fun there. But he's integral on game day.
He's a guy that just brings the energy. He helps guys on the sideline.
So I'm happy about it. I think hopefully Big Dom is.

Speaker 1 Shout out to Big Dom.

Speaker 1 Congratulations, Big Dom.

Speaker 1 All right, let's move on to some no dumb questions. That does it for our NFL news.
Sorry if you guys actually thought we were going to talk about the NFL. We didn't talk about the NFL.

Speaker 1 No dumb questions is brought to you by Uncrustables, the best part of the sandwich. Love it.
And everyone knows no dumb questions. There's no such thing as dumb questions, just dumb people.

Speaker 1 But we might actually have our first dumb question.

Speaker 1 From at Kyler Saunders

Speaker 1 6539.

Speaker 1 Hey, boys, it's Kyler from East Coast Canada. East Coast Canada.
What's East Coast Canada? That's a Montreal. That's Montreal.
That's

Speaker 1 French Canada. Yep.
All right. Bonjil obviously speaks English.
Hey, boys, it's Kyler from East Coast Canada once again, asking yet another dumb question. You have 24 hours to spend $1 million.

Speaker 1 You can't donate it. You can't give it away.
You can't gamble it, as though that would be a choice. You can't buy a a house.
You can't buy a boat jet car.

Speaker 1 How would you spend it? So I'm assuming in this like scenario, there's like

Speaker 1 a purpose. Like you get something for spending a million dollars in 24 hours.
So it's like a competition. Is that what he's getting at? Jason, you ever spent a million dollars in 24 hours?

Speaker 1 No. Well, I mean, outside of like buying a boat jet car, gambling, buying a house.
No, I haven't. No, I think that's the only ways I've done it.

Speaker 1 I would probably take that million dollars and buy a million dollars in an index fund

Speaker 1 that tracks the SP 500 and call it a day. There you go.
Does that count? You can't buy stock. He didn't say you can't buy stocks right now.
He never said you couldn't invest it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 That's probably

Speaker 1 the best.

Speaker 1 Interim Brandon is saying that's boring. Okay.
Yeah. Have you? Well, let's get back to this.
You asked me that. Have you ever spent a million dollars in a day? I don't think so.

Speaker 1 But at the same time, outside of like real estate or yeah,

Speaker 1 I don't look at a lot of the things I buy in terms of price. So

Speaker 1 I don't think I have.

Speaker 1 But also, like, outside of a house, car, boat, jet, like, all those are like. Those are the high ticket.
Usually you're financing it.

Speaker 1 I'm not a huge gambler, and I don't just give away money. So

Speaker 1 I don't think I have. Well, let's be.
I think it's a long shot if I have. Let's use our imagination skills.
What would you spend a million dollars on if you had to? Maybe a jetpack? Jetpack school.

Speaker 1 I mean, on jetpacks. Jetpack's cool.
Does it have to be a million dollars? It can be more than a million dollars. I think it's a million dollars.
Probably.

Speaker 1 Can you get a golf course with a million dollars? Is that real? Is that a house, though? Is that kind of real estate? Yeah, I think that's really cheap for a golf course.

Speaker 1 You can buy like a really nice piece of art or maybe some sports membrane. Ooh, yeah, maybe a Otis Wagner card or something.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. maybe a few watches.

Speaker 1 Some watches. Watches seem to appreciate, yeah.
Yeah, that would be another, those would be wise investments. Art, watches, what's another? Gold?

Speaker 1 Gold bars?

Speaker 1 Buried in the backyard. Ooh, that'd be sweet.
That'd be pretty cool. Freaking nice.
Gold bars.

Speaker 1 What's National Lampoons? Cousin Eddie? Yeah. Cousin Ediot? Work for him.
What would be a stupid? What would be a stupid way to spend a million dollars? Oh, no. Go party or something.

Speaker 1 i don't know yeah that'd be dumb it'd be dumb it'd be kind of fun though yeah probably be an epic party you would have to party with like a fuck ton of people though and and buy like some like for a million dollars you probably get some incredible artists to come to your party and put on a hell of a show oh yeah there you go oh you would you would would you throw a music festival well then and then you're making money on it So you're investing the money and hopefully you're making it on the back end.

Speaker 1 Who you haven't played at the music festival?

Speaker 1 You already do this, Kelsey Jam. What are we talking about? That's a good point, yeah.
Man, that shit's so much fun, man. Million dollars.
I'm gonna try and get Willie Nelson.

Speaker 1 I think I don't want any accompanying band, I don't want any accompanying band.

Speaker 1 I want Willie Nelson, you might be able to get Willie Nelson for like a couple hundred grand. Well, I'm gonna give him a million because he deserves it.

Speaker 1 Okay, and I just want him and Trigger, I don't want anybody else

Speaker 1 and some garage beer.

Speaker 1 Nailed that one. I think this might be our first dumbest question in the world.
Million dollars right now. Just got to spend it.

Speaker 1 That was a sweet question. Nice question.
If I had a million dollars, I would spend it on investing in uncrustables, the best part of the sandwich. And that is what's brought to you.

Speaker 1 You could use that million dollars to buy up all the uncrustables in like a specific area. like a geographic location.
You could make a shortage on families that like need Uncrustables for their kids.

Speaker 1 And then you can buy that for a million dollars and you can upcharge it. This is how shorting works.
Then you sell it, you know, maybe the uncrustables

Speaker 1 is like a dollar and uncrustable, but now that you own all the uncrustables, people are panicking for these kids' lunches. You start selling them for two bucks.

Speaker 1 And because there's a national shortage. This isn't the content that the 92%ers signed up for.
All right, fair enough. Fair enough.
All right.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 1 Yeah. That does it for no dumb questions.
brought to you by Uncruscibles. Incrussibles is the best part of the sandwich.
Teach tape time. That's right.

Speaker 1 Another segment of Teach Tape is about to happen now. This week, we're breaking down a play from Super Bowl 57.

Speaker 1 Third and two. Blitz coming.
Hurts in deep trouble. Gets away.
Throws across his body. Incomplete.
What inspired this play to be talked about?

Speaker 1 My man Michael Collins, former Caddy and also fellow podcaster. Hey,

Speaker 1 Michael asked me at the Eagles Autism Foundation golf outing this week if I had one mulligan that I could take on my career, what would it be?

Speaker 1 This is the play. This is the play that I think about when I think about Super Bowl 57 and ones that I would like back that Travis ended up winning.

Speaker 1 So this is third and two, late in the game, fourth quarter. Chiefs are up.
We are going, and hopefully if we convert here, going down to score.

Speaker 1 We end up running a protection that is a play action protection. The tight end is going to slice back.

Speaker 1 His responsibility in this protection is actually the inside linebacker to the right, Nick Bolton.

Speaker 1 The lines' offensive responsibility is the four-down lineman, and the back is responsible coast to coast, four to four. Spaggs ends up drawing up a saw blitz.

Speaker 1 Ironically, and I don't know if it was a formational check that Spaggs wanted in this game, but he ran this exact same pressure on this exact same play action earlier in the game.

Speaker 1 And we ended up being,

Speaker 1 we didn't end up picking it up because the tight end and back both went to the nickel.

Speaker 1 So the Mike, when he green-dogged around late, ended up getting a hit on Jalen and kind of forcing an off-target pass down the field. So I recognize that the same blitz is happening.

Speaker 1 And in order to try and correct it, I end up taking the line's responsibility now to the Mike. The offensive line and the running back are not on the same page.

Speaker 1 And as you're going to see, the the Sam linebacker is going to run off the end of the line scot-free.

Speaker 1 This is a play where one of the downsides of this protection is we don't rep it a lot versus exotic looks. This is a standard protection that we run mostly to four-down defenses.

Speaker 1 I should not by any means have tried to adjust this protection, but I did so, unfortunately, based on a play that happened earlier in the game. So obviously,

Speaker 1 Jalen gets pressured, which forces him to roll out immediately. Incomplete.
We have to punt. Really, this is the drive where the Chiefs really took up a full touchdown lead on us.

Speaker 1 All right, just to kind of clarify some stuff for

Speaker 1 the average fan that really doesn't know what four down and the Mike, the Sam, the Will all are. So Sam and Will backers are the outside of the three backers.

Speaker 1 The Mike backer is called the middle backer. That's

Speaker 1 my guy 32, Nick Bolton, right there. So Jason's saying that initially the play call was the offensive line has the four defensive linemen.

Speaker 1 So the guys that have their hand in the ground for the Chiefs and the outside backer to on this cut, the right side. Correct.
50 on the end of the line of scrimmage.

Speaker 1 He starts off the end of the line of scrimmage, but he ends up walking on.

Speaker 1 So the saw blitz is both outside linebackers on the line of scrimmage blitzing, which then the defensive line will all kind of slant in so that all gaps are assigned and it's just, it becomes kind of like an overload of just pressure from the outside in.

Speaker 1 I think the other reason this could have been in is because typically the three technique lines up to the tight end.

Speaker 1 And in order to get a double team on Chris Jones, you would want the offensive line run selling in the direction of the tight end instead of the tight end being on the back side of the play action.

Speaker 1 What's ironic here is that Chris Jones both times ran this protection was not on the front side, which ended up being a harder block for Isaac Sayumalo on the back side.

Speaker 1 And Spags we trust.

Speaker 1 Well, I think when you call Saw Blitz, it don't matter because they're just going to end up pinching down. But it matters who you're making.
Earlier in the game, we ended up going and staying on 50.

Speaker 1 There was some confusion with the running back and tight end. 32 came around unblocked.
So in order to try and correct this, I decided to go to the middle of three. Back goes to the left.

Speaker 1 Tight end will go on the nickel. We're all picked up.
Bada-bing, bada-boom. The only problem is we've never repped that.

Speaker 1 And I tried to pull that out in the biggest moment moment of the Super Bowl and hope that everybody was going to be on the same page, which we clearly weren't.

Speaker 1 And it was unfair to Kenny to put him in that situation because they probably talked about this exact same blitz on their side of the bench and talked about, hey, you got the nickel tight end, you stay on the mic, and that's the way it's going to be picked up.

Speaker 1 So these are the type of adjustments. This is the unfortunate side of trying to do too much.
And this is the mulligan. of my career that I would love back.

Speaker 1 Who knows what would have happened afterwards?

Speaker 1 But I know that this this was a big part of the game. Do you have anything else to add, Trev? Do you think that was a good one? Yeah, I mean, they're all good to learn from.
I hate that

Speaker 1 you put that much

Speaker 1 thought on one play of a game. I mean, obviously, we all have our,

Speaker 1 what do you call it, the times that we don't have success that we wish we had back, you know, maybe not that we regret, but that, you know, a big game like that, big moment in the game like that play was, I understand how you could think about that

Speaker 1 more than others. But at the same time, you know, that was a hell of a game and it could have gone either way there at the end.
No doubt. But yeah, I think it was a good play to learn from.
And

Speaker 1 it's always, you know, you want to be your best, you know, when the team needs it the most. And I think that, you know, you had

Speaker 1 maybe were a step further along than some of the other guys in terms of understanding that, you know, protection and understanding that it was a saw blitz and where guys should have gone.

Speaker 1 But at the same time, yeah, man, it's uh, it's

Speaker 1 it's way easier to

Speaker 1 be Monday morning quarterback and say this is what we should have and all that.

Speaker 1 But in the heat of the game, I don't, who's who's to say that that was, you know, the right or wrong decision, man.

Speaker 1 Yeah, the problem is when you're going up against exotic looks, what I try and do is picking up blitzes is to resort to

Speaker 1 base protections. And that play doesn't really have a base protection.
Like when you're running

Speaker 1 some of these run play actions, they resort to 74-75 or protections that you know how to pick up all of these exotics to. This play didn't really have that.

Speaker 1 So it would have ended up being better if I wouldn't have tried to adjust it. But because of what happened previously in the game, I tried to adjust it.

Speaker 1 But in general, seven-man protection, four-down, you want to go to the middle of three. Let the back go here.
The tight end blocks out over here.

Speaker 1 That's where my brain went because that's kind of the root of seven-man protection. But this is a it's just a different play,

Speaker 1 yeah. So, whatever, it's unfortunate.
It's the mulligan play I wish I had back because if I wouldn't have changed anything, we probably convert that third down. Trav, what about you?

Speaker 1 Do you have a mulligan play? Do I have a mulligan play? Um,

Speaker 1 one play you wish you had back.

Speaker 1 Why did I say back?

Speaker 1 One play you wish you had back.

Speaker 1 Um,

Speaker 1 there were a fucking I had

Speaker 1 mulligan games. Shit.

Speaker 1 I wish I would have fucking played better in the

Speaker 1 COVID Bowl, the

Speaker 1 2020 Super Bowl against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 yeah, I wish I would have played better that game, that entire game. There were opportunities for me to make plays that I didn't make.

Speaker 1 Early on, I dropped a third-down conversion where Pat put it bread and butter. I'd had to make a catch

Speaker 1 getting double teamed, but I should have made the fucking catch. And that would have been a huge momentum boost for us.
Man, there's so many plays from early on in my career.

Speaker 1 Man, the play that I got knocked out against Tennessee,

Speaker 1 I wish I would have had that playback

Speaker 1 and I would have went about it a different way so that I didn't get knocked out.

Speaker 1 I think the second half would be a completely different game if I'm able to be a part of that game.

Speaker 1 Let alone getting knocked out. Fuck.
Who wants to get knocked out? I'd love to get a mulligan on that one. Dude, there's so many.
There's so many. And it's, I just,

Speaker 1 I don't know. I learned from them.
There's a lot of mulligans we would take is the bottom line. Yeah, especially me and your fucking.
I watch film and I'm not happy with what I see.

Speaker 1 And I don't know why.

Speaker 1 I've always had that mentality, but I've always, I've always focused on how I could do things better instead of like, man, that was, I, that was actually one of my best plays of my life.

Speaker 1 I don't, I would like, I'd like, if it's a good play, I just kind of like, all right, fine, I'm good. I did my fucking job.
That's, it's almost like it's expected.

Speaker 1 Hey, I did, I did what I was supposed to do. I did what I was supposed to do.
And then I go on to the next play and I'm like, man, I'm a fucking turd. Yeah.
God damn it.

Speaker 1 Why did I go in with that kind of leverage? Or why didn't I use my hands more on that block? Or why didn't I use a bigger move or get off the ball faster on this route?

Speaker 1 You know, there's so many things that go through your mind when you're watching film. And for me, the majority of them are negative or ways that I could do do things better.

Speaker 1 And I mean, I just always had that mentality. So, when it comes to a mulligan, man, I want every fucking play that

Speaker 1 I don't do my job. Yeah, give me that, give me a mulligan on that fucking play.
I'm with you. I definitely think about it the same way.

Speaker 1 The good plays are what are expected. It's the ones that don't go well that you want back and that you think about more.
I guess that's why we're sore losers. Fuck.
There you go. The whole world knows

Speaker 1 I fucked that play up. You're the greatest to ever do it, son.
Don't you forget it. I've had a lot of good ones.

Speaker 1 That one wasn't good. All right.

Speaker 1 Raise a glass.

Speaker 1 Finally, we mentioned a few weeks ago we were partnering with Crown Royal to shine a light on the most generous 92%ers because Crown Royal believes that when you live generously, life will treat you royally.

Speaker 1 We're still blown away by all the submissions you 92%

Speaker 1 have been sending us and everything you're doing. But it's time to raise a glass to this week's Royal 92%er.
Who we got? Tanya Moro. How about Tanya? Hey, Tanya, what's Tanya up to?

Speaker 1 Well, from Tanya's friend Jamie, who nominated Tanya.

Speaker 1 Tanya is one of our high school English teachers and also our head softball coach. This year, she won Teacher of the Year for our campus.
Way to go, Tanya.

Speaker 1 In addition to her paid jobs, she also volunteers for our staff engagement committee, which has the sole purpose of bringing joy to other teachers.

Speaker 1 She is a part of our safety and security committee as well. There we go.
Okay. Safety and security engagement committee.
I see you, Tanya. Okay, Tanya.
All sorts of extracurriculars.

Speaker 1 Tanya is also a city council member for the city of Hazlitt. Wow, Texas.
Okay. She is often the voice of reason and always does what is best for the people in the community.
Tanya, I'm loving.

Speaker 1 I'm loving everything Jamie's saying about you. You are nailing this girl.
In her free time,

Speaker 1 she takes her dash hound. You have a dash hound? Oh, my God.
They're adorable.

Speaker 1 Louie all around the state and races him. Tanya is an amazing person who does for people and never asks for anything in return.
Also, she is the only Eagles fan other than me in a sea of Cowboys fans.

Speaker 1 And for that alone, she deserves to be recognized. Tanya, gosh dang it, Jamie.
I agree.

Speaker 1 Teachers don't get enough credit. Am I right, Trav? I mean, there's no question.

Speaker 1 Matter of fact, if I got a million dollars back to that dumb question, I'd fund a foundation to make sure that the teachers get more credit and more pay and just more recognition.

Speaker 1 Damn, this is great. Why didn't we think about this earlier? I love it.
I love this. Dash on races.
I got to see this. And I want to see how Louie handles it.

Speaker 1 Have you ever seen, do you know what a dash-hound is?

Speaker 1 No, but I did used to love watching those dog competitions on ESPN back in the day. Dash Hounds are wiener dogs, another popular name for them.
Yeah, so

Speaker 1 I can only imagine dash hound races where they're a little feeder.

Speaker 1 Dash hounds can hit speeds of up to 15 to 20 miles an hour. No chance.
Not a chance. I'm not buying that.
No way. There's no way a dash on has beaten me in a race.
No way.

Speaker 1 And I can't run 15 to 20 miles an hour at this point.

Speaker 1 I can hit 15. I can hit 15.
I ain't hitting 20, though. There's no way you're hitting 15 miles an hour.
I'll fucking put that GPS on right now. You're out of your mind.
I'm definitely hitting 15.

Speaker 1 I hit 18, 19 routinely, but 20 is a little bit, 20 is a little high. Interim Brandon said that's what Google said.
Well, you can't believe everything you read on Google.

Speaker 1 Yeah, honestly, I don't believe the majority of what I read on Google. That's probably a good way to go about life.

Speaker 1 If you'd like to join Crown Royal and raise a glass to our generous 92%er over the age of 21 in your community, send an email to newheightshow at gmail.com.

Speaker 1 Include the nominee's date of birth, social account, and mailing address. A reminder, as I just said, they must be 21 plus to enter.
Keep sending your submissions in.

Speaker 1 We love giving shout outs and attention to the people that deserve it and maybe

Speaker 1 haven't gotten the amount of credit that is owed to them and

Speaker 1 proud to shed a light and raise a glass to Tanya this week. There we go, Tanya.
Yay! There we go, Tanya.

Speaker 1 All righty, that wraps up another episode of New Heights. Make sure you're subscribed on YouTube to the New Heights channel so you know when all the new episodes are coming out.

I'm kidding. To our 92 percenters, we love you guys.
Peace.

Speaker 1 Basketball. Fuck.
What a great movie. Dude.
We need to do a live show where we actually do a full-on live basketball fucking game with

Speaker 1 the beers. Come on.
With the beers? Matt Stone and Trey Parker?

Speaker 1 Dude, if they're willing. I was just saying the beers as in like Garage Beer, but yeah.
Well, they can be the beers sponsored by Garage Beer. There you go.
I would psych the fuck out of Trey Parker.
