The boys immediately get into Travis’s podcast with his brother, Jason Kelce, The New Heights podcast. They get into how the pod started, what made him want to do one and how they decided on a title. Then the boys get into this past year's super bowl where Travis and his brother squared off against each other. He talks about how cool it was with his family being in the spotlight but also how difficult it was realizing he just beat his brother, Kelce talks about his QB, Patrick Mahomes, on what kind of player and leader he is. He also gives his first impression of Mahomes and if he thought he was going to be good or not. The guys end the pod with a quick tier talk and our twisted question.

Two for two. What is that episode? What? So what? 21. 21. Boys, we're cruising. We're cruising.

Are we rolling? Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the episode of Bus and with the Boys. Episode 231, as the boys probably just discussed, you probably heard that. Let me tell you something, dude. Summer's here. And what better way to take advantage of all it has to offer with Chevy Silverwado. Silverwado. summer, think of all the possibilities.

From Offward Adventures to DIY Do It Yourself Project and hardcore work. Silver Auto has the capability and technology to make this summer your best one ever. With nine different Silverado models to choose from and engines that range from the powerful turbomax

to the 6.2 liter V8 and the Durhamax Thaisal. You can count on Chevy power and performance to get anything done. Like many of you, we've been hitting the road a lot lately and it seems like everywhere we go, there's an army of Silveradoes and Silverado owners. So shout out to all of you, game, recognized game.

Head over to Chevy.com and check out Silverado and all the Chevy trucks, the official trucks of Bustin with the boys. In the state of Missouri. So, yeah, we're back on on some for the fourth. There's a lot of Silveradoes out and about. They roll like that. Silverado town, brother. No question. No question.

You get out there in Missouri, man. It's like everyone just built there for now. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. You saw it this weekend, dude. A lot of competitors out there. whether it was Power Slap or UFC, it just seems like a lot of dudes are just in that Missouri category.

Fucking handling. And you're saying that light heavyweight championship of Power Slap, we got the belt back home in Missouri. Yeah. Shout out Wolverine. The belt exactly where it needs to be. Yeah, yeah. Handling fucking business.

Got his wife probably another set of fake hits. Yeah. So what a deal. Yeah, a couple matches that included the Missouri folk. But Power Slap is like the professional sport of places like Missouri. No question. You know what I mean? No question.

It is consumed the flyover state. No disrespect, calling the flyover states. No doubt it has truly taken over that area, that demographic for sure. It is, it's nuts, dude. And a lot of people are kind of,

it's not a sport, it's not this. Dude, it is a spectacle to see. It is fun to watch live. It is wild. And I'm sure you guys, you know,

with the way brains work nowadays, 15 seconds of having, you know, the, was it, time span? Time. The thing where you can only focus for so long?

Retention. Attention. Yeah. That's a tough word. Attention. That is the most easily consumable content you can probably get on the internet right now. Yeah. Just watching a dude get fucking smacked in the face like that is fucking wide.

No doubt. No doubt. Dude, we've had a... Yeah. The most insane probably past really 10 days. I mean, we were on vacation. We were doing our Fourth of July stuff. You were in Florida.

Yeah. Which we can get into. I was in Missouri. Then we come back. We hit, I think we got back to Nashville on Wednesday. First flight out Thursday morning, 515 boy, get to New York. We get to interview Tom Segura, Christa Stefano. We have a nice little evening with the boys, get a little bit of sushi, rest up, fly out at like 720 the next day.

Aversity struck that day for me. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, we can get into that. And we fly all the way to Vegas. So just changing time zones. We're in Vegas. for 48 hours. I feel like we slept maybe five or six hours total in Vegas. I did the math, dude. We slept six hours. Yeah. Isn't that nuts? Yeah. In night one on

Friday, we're drinking. We're having a good time with the boys. Saturday we chill out, but we, you know, we make the night last until about 1.30 in the morning before we have to get up at 3.45 to make our 515 flight to get home for your daughter's birthday party, which, by the way, was in a phenomenal time. It was good. But we're just in it. Right when we land, we're like, we got to get over, we got to make the birthday party, we got to be dads. Got to be dads. But we've had an insane last 10 days or so. It really has been amazing, dude.

This is one of those, especially when you get like, all the opportunities that came about in Vegas was just wild. Yeah. And I know that we had a conversation about two weeks before when I was talking to you, I was like, hey man, I think this is, you need to come to Vegas. And here's why. And I kind of gave you the spiel of here's why. And sure enough, 48 hours later, like, the boy's coming. And three or four times I hit you with.

A, was it worth it? And you're like, oh, yeah, 100%. After night one. You guys, you're like first pitch, second pitch, the third and final pitch for sure. I was like, yeah, I need a, I got to go. I'm truly starting to. I'm so happy.

I'm truly starting to understand the strategy how to get you places. You can't do like hard. Hey, we got to do this. Let's go. Like, that's not the way to do it with you. But the nudging, the slow movements figuring out, it's a, it's nice when you finally start to figure out your buddy that way.

You know? It's good. Yeah. It's good. But incredible time. You want to get into it? I know. Where do we start?

I guess we start in New York, man. Obviously, we had early flights out. Well, we probably should start with our Fourth of July. Before the July is phenomenal. Like, my partner and I, Adam Freud, we won the Cornhole tournament. Huge. About 16 teams. It was a lot of fun.

Missouri is a great time. Got some good camaraderie, good vibes with the old man, with my brothers. Rue, getting to see everybody. Like, it was a good time. And then Fourth of July ends, you know, with all the boys sitting around having a stogie, some busing, some busing piggyback whiskey. Love that. And a little bit of Dairy Queen on the way home.

Had to. But, dude, it was a great time. Then stay up late at night with the boy, Nick, where we were staying at. We, you know, we stayed until about two in the morning, just catching up and just talking life, talking shop. Then we drive back the next day, dude. But my Fourth of July in Missouri was a good time. I love it, dude. And also, you were putting out a couple of those twisted teas.

Dude, the Twisted T's, yeah, the Twisted T light is the move. Because the Twisted T is like, you know, we're also in Get Jack 2023. So you got to kind of watch, like there is sugar involved with the regular Twisted T. But you go to that Twisted T light, that is where it's at. They taste phenomenal. Everybody's wanting to get them. And I only, you know, I unfortunately bought three cases because there was a, you know, B-Y-O-B situation. Yeah.

But, uh... Just for the boy. That's, you were ready. I knew I was going to pass a few around, but I just didn't know how I'd get. And they go down nice. like obviously Twisted Tea, that's a dangerous boy because it tastes so good. Yeah. It tastes just like a good old iced tea, dude.

But without, you don't taste any alcohol. So it's kind of like the whole jungle juice situation. You don't know until you know. Yeah, until it's over. And then all of a sudden you're blacked out. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. But no, dude, it was the Twisted Tea light is definitely the move.

And I was spreading the good news around Bontair. By the way, the boys were fired up that were Twisted Tea crew. That's awesome. I feel like a lot of our generation, especially the guys, they're fired the fuck up about the twisted tea move. Yeah, I've gotten a few texts. about it too, especially Chris Arnold. He hits me up a whole bunch. He is a big twisted tea guy. What he'll do with Twisted Tea is he's like these big jugs. Yeah. And he puts it in his fridge

and he just pours, only Twisted Tea in. And so he makes it look like he's just having a tea at the end of the day of like three or four of them things and cocky out on the floor. Put it in the freezer. Get some ice cubes and fill it up. Hey, honey, it's all good. It's just tea. Yeah. Don't worry about it. So he's. Tanner is too. Because Tanner would always like, you know, whisper to me throughout the day like, hey, crush a twisted tea. Crush a tall boy with me. I'm like, you know, my T. Tanner's fucking one in the afternoon on Wednesday. Leave me alone. They love those Arizona boys.

They love the Twisted Tea for sure, man. It's a good time. I'm glad your Fourth of July went so well. How was, uh, that was Italy. How was Italy, Florida, dude, 30A? Well, we started off by driving. We drove and, you know, it was straight. I had a bit of a situation with Buckeys.

It was straight. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I had a bit of a situation. So my wife, you guys, you guys, you got, Most of you guys know, my wife is from Canada. And so her brother's in town. His girlfriend, now fiancee is in town. And we drive down to 30A.

And as we're going down, obviously, you're driving that little route about an hour and a half in, Bucky starts to pop up. And I start selling it. Like, brother, we're about to go to like the number one tour spot for low to middle class people. This is Hunter pumps, fudge, their jerky, barbecue, the whole thing, best bathrooms you've ever seen. Yeah.

people go out there, they get their food and they go outside and tailgate it's essentially. So I made like, I feel like anytime you're trying to sell somebody on something, you can't hype it up too much. You got to give it a little grace because then they go on with that most, like the highest of expectations. We go there and to be honest with you, they weren't overly impressed. But I think that's what, that's me doing that because I, I talked about about 30 minutes before we even got there. So that, like, I'm quiet after Bucky's for like the next hour, like in my own head like, yo, is Bucky's that great? Is that? It was 4th of July weekend.

Like that's a destination spot. It was packed. Families are visiting families and they're like, let's go have a day of Buckees. So I start, I get in my own head and stuff like that. And I'll regain this conversation when we get to New York. Because on the way back, I did have a conversation with Will and J.P. Thankfully, Will and J.P were a good voice of reason for me. And I'm back where I need to be.

But we get in that. It's a good. It'll be in the vlog. So I get to Florida. And it's beautiful down there in 38. There's like, you go to. different spots. It's like Rosemary Beach.

And then it's like 30A and then it's like just kind of keeps going down. And they're all their own little unique cultures. Yeah. Kind of down there. I thought it was beautiful.

I thought it was immaculate. Rosemary. I thought it was really awesome. A little shops. It does kind of remind you of like a European feel with the way the buildings are and stuff like that.

Italy. And then 30A, like you get there. And I think 30A is beautiful. However, it's so like everything is like white. Everything blends in. It's so clean that I thought to myself,

this could be a horror movie where you kind of go in, you're so excited, but everyone's kind of dressed the same. All the buildings are the same. Then like it's one of those deals when night falls, like you just can't go like like someone. There's like one older late.

It's like, hey, probably best you don't come out of your room after 7 p.m. You're thinking why? That's so weird. Then you're scratching it at the door and stuff like that. That's a whole thing I have to unpack with my own self. But dude, the first day I get in my little golf cart

the next morning and I go to the workout, the Rosemary Gym area. And I'm ripping in my golf cart. And I get stopped. And they're like, hey, you can't have golf carts in this area. I'm like, what do you mean? I see golf carts everywhere. And they kind of take me out.

And then I started to find out that 30A, like, you can't take photos of 30A because they consider themselves a brand. And there's only certain amount of things you can do. And that's where with me, when there's that many, like, random rules. What, what 30, you can't take photos of 30? So 38, yeah, this is what I was told is that 30A, they viewed themselves as a brand. And so you can't necessarily take your own photos. Like, you can't take iPhone photos there.

or you're not like, if they see you, if security sees you doing it, they're like, hey, you can't take photos here. Hey, you can't do it at Rosemary. I don't know if that. You can do it. You can do it, Kaya.

I'm just telling you, this is what people, this is what people, this is what people who live there are telling me. Like, I was staying, are you, are you saying, are you're something about Dallas Beach.

Yeah. Or Kaya or whatever. Rosemary and in between Kaya. So that little, like, it's the white pillars. And I, I was told once you get to the white pillars, you're technically in Alice Beach.

You're in Alice Beach. And then so, Am I wrong in saying that? I think it's saying that if you are not, the first article that pops up is just you need to be a renting guest or owner to secure permission to shoot there.

So just that in general, though, is like why? Why can't you just take photos? Like, out of all the beaches in Florida, 30A is definitely the most, like, stiff of all of them. Like, it's where a lot of... Hold on not to cut you off, but I was doing it too. I think 30A is like the whole general area. Yeah, 30A is like the highway, right?

Yeah, it's like 30 is like Nashville. and then we're talking about like East Nashville. You stayed in Alice Beach, that is probably one of the nicer. It's so nice. Yeah. The nicest in the Gulf. Yeah.

And it's really nice. But when I start hearing these rules, like I was staying in Kyle, which they're all right next to each other. Like, you're just talking about a street over. And these two dudes were walking by. I broke a watermelon.

I was really bummed out about it. And they were kind of like consoling me about it, which I didn't need that, but all right. They started talking to me and I'm like, yeah, I told them about the golf cart thing. And then that's when they started telling me,

me, hey, like, yeah, but you can't take photos in Alice Beach and we've been stopped multiple times. Like one guy was flying a drone and a security guard came up and he's like, hey, you can't fly a drone here. You're in Alice Beach, blah, blah, blah. The line of Alice Beach and Rosemary or Kaya was like right behind him. He literally took two steps back and started flying the drone. The guy's like, all right, that's fair. Yeah, it's, it's, it's, it's Alice Beach where you have to be a renting or actual owner to be able to legally shoot there, which is ridiculous. Yeah, it's ridiculous. And so there was, there were little things that I'll, I was like, man, because that's where we go back to just me in general.

And the weird pet peeves I have like the whole country club. You got to dress a certain way type thing. You got to act a certain way. You were in the country club. It sounds like I was. Yeah. Well, I was in Kaya, but I was essentially right there with everything. And I started, you know, the rules part was a bummer for me.

Did you have to, did you need a code to get into the area? No, because you just drive on that road. It's like the, um, FSAH, the Florida scenic highway is kind of what it's called. Are you in a gated community? No. I wasn't in a gated community. community. But I feel like if you're renting, that's where kind of my gated community, like dislike kind of goes out. Because I'm just renting. It's all good. I'm not buying.

I'm not purchasing. But I, other than that, I feel like I'm going to get the negative out of the way. I thought it was incredibly beautiful. I thought the sand was, dude, the sand just different down there. Like, it felt white soft sand. White soft sand. I thought, you know, when they didn't, they said they didn't have waves, you know, I was like, man, that's kind of a bummer. Like, what are you going to do out there? Very calm seas. Everyone was having a good time at night. We're, you know, and my kids when the tide was out, we're catching sand dollars and crabs and stuff like that. It was just a blast, man. It was so much fun. We did like a little fire pit thing and my daughter's in the corner and literally it was the, it was the fourth when that happened. My daughter's birthday

is the 5th of July. And there's a, there's a moment. I'm like sitting in a chair and I'm looking over and I'm looking at my five-year-old daughter when and she's like kind of just making sandcastles and stuff and there's the sun's setting behind her. And I literally was like tearing up. Like my gosh, she's like getting so old. I literally was like sitting there crying by myself. And then like, Taylor comes up. She's like, are you crying right now? I was like, get the fuck out of here, dude.

Let me just get him. Are you about to cry now? No. But I was like legitimately like, holy shit, my kids are just getting older. It's just wild. When is like at the age now, she's like a little girl. Yeah. There's no more like toddler and anything like that.

Willow, we got like one or two more years there. But she's already talking to hear her talk. It's like damn. And they just stopped. Like I remember yesterday when we were driving over, you're like, oh man, when they start talking, it's going to be so awesome. there's a part of me, it's like, man, you just don't want to hear the next stage happen.

Yeah. Because once that stage goes, it's like the old one in there. And the pointing going like, heck, heck, yeah. Like, that's gone. She'll be able to talk to me now. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like, once they get done crawling and they're walking there, they don't crawl anymore.

Yeah. And then the fifth happens. So the next day, the fifth, when turned six, she's fired up. And I made a joke to her that I made to her yesterday. The day before she turned six. And she's kind of coloring. She looks at me and she goes, I'm six now. Daddy, that's not funny.

Oh, my. You know, what the fuck, dude? Are you serious? So, like, the rest of the day, I'm trying to make jokes. She goes, not funny, dad, I'm six over and over. And I'm like, you know what else happens when you're six? Yeah. You're allowed to get grounded.

Yeah. Go to your room. Go to your room. Think about how your father's not funny. Take a fucking walk, dude. I was like, damn, that's crazy. And the fifth is I literally left. I flew back to Nashville because we had that early flight.

So I took like a later flight out of Panama City. But it was fun, man. I really enjoyed 30. We'll have to go back. it's fucking hot right now though. Yeah, when you were bringing up how hot it was like like that. Oh, yeah, I bet it is fucking damn near peak there. Brutal.

Brutal. For the July week, like weekend and everything like that. Yeah, there's a lot of people. Yeah. So the guys, those two guys that I was talking with that were telling me all the rules are like, you got to come down like November. That is the time. Like, no one's really here.

It's fun. You can get in all the shops and all that. They're really lax in the rules. Like, you can kind of just do whatever. And I'm like, that's. It sounds like a good time. That's what I'm going to get there for sure. But that was a blast dude.

And then we go to New York. Yeah, New York, bro. Tom Seguro, Chris DeStefano, two phenomenal interviews. Those are going to be awesome. You guys are going to love them. But Tom is just like, you know, he loves ball. He loves college ball. So it came into like storytelling for all of us there for a minute.

Yeah. Yeah. And then HQ's like all the way cleaned out because there are, you know, a lot of people are moving to Chicago. So a lot of things were getting like tidied up and set up for everybody in HQ this week. Like the new, it's going to be like Barstall comedy, I think. Yeah. Out in New York.

We're doing like sketches and stuff like. that. Who'd you like more out of Tom and Chris? Um. Or is it one of those things where we're like, you know, we love them each in their own right. I like them both. I think they're both completely different energies too. Yeah. The thing I really like... Chris comes in just, you know, he's ready. Yeah. Firing at the hip. He's ready to go. He's like a good time. I caught myself laughing a whole bunch more with, uh, with Chris. Yeah. But the thing that was so nice for me is when before we did our interview with Tom Seguer, we had an individual tell us like, hey, you got to, he's a little more reserved. You kind of got to work him through it a little bit.

soft spoken. And I didn't feel that the whole, like the minute we sat down, it was like boys hanging out. Yeah. It was a good fucking time. Dude, it was, man. And then DeStefano, like you said, dude, shooting from the hip, being fucking hilarious, like just saying offhand shit the whole time. Oh yeah, I can, yeah, I can laugh at that. I can laugh at this. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're like, I'm allowed to laugh. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But he was, he was, the Stefano gave me the vibe of Chrysure in a lot of ways where it's like, you kind of just ask one question, and then he rolls for 20 minutes. Oh, he spoke about 85% of the podcast.

Yeah, and then... Yeah. And then Seguro was more like more all of us having a conversation. So I enjoyed both of them a lot. All that to say, I enjoyed them so much, dude. Dude, yeah, they were fucking awesome. I loved that. And then I mean, got a good night's sleep, woke up super early in the morning, but we were... I mean, I was in my room 8 o'clock.

And I probably was asleep. Yeah, after we had dinner at that sushi spot, which, by the way, overpriced don't go there. Not a lot of selection. Not a lot of selection. Yeah, very, like, traditional Japanese. Yeah. The soy sauce they gave us. They gave Taylor like a teaspoon.

I was thinking to myself, brother, come on. What are we doing here? It was wild. It was wild. Very New York. Very New York. Well, we wake up the next morning. We should go back.

So the day of doing those two interviews, I asked Will about his flight. I was like, hey, did you get on the same flight as me? He's like, I got good news. I got bad news. Oh, yeah, because that's what led to do it. Yeah. Man, it feels like this stuff happened so long ago. So long ago.

With lack of sleep and everything. Essentially, Will is like I have a direct flight from JFK. And I'm flying from LaGuardia earlier in the morning than Will is, but I'm going to Austin, Texas, then I'm going to Las Vegas. And we always fly out of LaGuardia. We always fly out of LaGuardia after we do a New York trip. Taylor had booked his. I get on like, Caitlin was booking ours through barstool and everything.

And she was like, hey, I found a nonstop at JFK. I'm like, how much farther away? She's like, probably 20 minutes. But it'll be nonstop. And then the other one, the one that Taylor was on, she's like, there's no more first class. She's like, there's no first class, period, but you'd be in a middle seat on that one. So I was like, all right, well, let's do the nonstop because we're all going to get there.

And then Taylor's like, I got good news and I got bad news because JP says something. You said you got good news, you got bad news. I know, but remember JP sparks and I said, oh, yeah, I got to tell them. And I was like, hey, I got good news or I got bad news. I'm like, all, what's the bad news? Because we're on different flight. And what was the good news? We're all going to Vegas.

Yeah, we start talking about it. And for me, like, I was in first class on LaGuardia, but I was. I would rather sit in a middle seat and have a direct flight than have to connect somewhere. I don't know, bro. I was like you make your own decision just because I didn't want to feel like I was either pushing you to like, hey, come with us.

Because I'm thinking he might just be in a middle seat. Like we're all in the mate. We're all, it's going to be a long fucking flight. Yeah, we're all gin pop. Yeah, we're all gin pop. Yours is seven and a half hour travel time. Ours is like five hours and 40 minutes. Right.

But you get a first class fight and then you get to stop off, kind of like get the legs moving a little bit. Then you get back in and go to Vegas for the rest of the way for another first class fight. You get your well taken care of. You know what I mean? Versus being crammed in a middle seat. You're talking middle seed and everything else.

I'm like, I think my guy's taking crazy pills. But you're like, hey, you know, fucking I'll be in the trenches with the boys type of thing, which I wasn't going to go against. But I'm thinking in my head, like, I don't know if I would have to take that one. I know. But also, I stand by what I said. Like, I would much rather just get there faster than have to stop in a whole bunch of spots, even if it's just one stop for me.

And so I had up Kailena's like, can you book me in the same flight as then? She says, yeah, no problem. And I go to check into my flight. it's like you can't get your seat yet because it's within 24 hours. I was like, all right, whatever. I gotta go to the desk. I sent it to Caitlin. I was like,

hey, is this normal? She's like totally normal. It's because it's 24 hours, all that. So I like double checked and everything. The next day, we're up at, I don't know, we leave like 5 o'clock. My flight that I was going to have to get on, I'd have to be on that flight at 5 o'clock. So for me, I'm like, oh, I'm getting more sleep. Right, right.

All that. There's a whole, there's enough pros. That out way to come up the middle seat. Yeah. We get there. JFK, you got to work. work on your shit, dude. That is one of the worst airports I have ever been in my entire life. I go to stand in line. I'm looking at the thing. It says walk time. So I have my gate and

where I gate B-58 or something like that. And it says walk times like from B-45 to B-60. It says 30 minutes. And we're there earlier than we usually are flights. We're there like an hour and a half. We were there like, yeah. We were there comfortably. Yeah. So I end up getting to see it and Will Joe's checks the kiosk for me. And he's like, hey, it's not working. I'm like, hey, you guys just go. You get in line for the desk, we get in line for the kiosk because there were a lot of people, and the operation is just fucking brutal. The lines, God awful.

The walk times, insane. Taylor's like, hey, because we got on the kiosk, I was like, well, let's try the kiosk because he's like, you guys just might need to start going. Like, it's a 30-minute walk. And he's like, I just don't know how long I'm going to be in this fucking line because it was long. Because I'm like, it's better for everybody, at least you guys would make the flight, then all of us missed the flight. And it's like, what the fuck.

Right. So I wait in this line. I'm a little tired. I'm sitting there. I'm watching people just fucking have conversations in this line. The people that are next in line. And the person sitting over there going, hey, next in line, next in line. And I'm looking at these other people.

And they're just like talking. I'm like, bro, hurry the fuck up in my head. But it's whatever. I end up getting to the desk. And the lady is like, oh, when's your birthday? And I was like, oh, 722.991. And she's like, oh, it says your birthday 722, 2020. And I'm like...

Birth year of 2020. I'm thinking... She goes, how old are you? I'm like, I'm 31. She goes, oh, it says, oh, it says, this year you're three. And I'm thinking, you could have probably figured it out that I'm not three years old. Yeah, but whatever.

2020. We know there's a difference here. Yeah. Are you going to be able to fucking help me? So my head, can you just change it real quick? She tries to change. She goes, oh, we can't print it here, all this stuff. You're going to miss the flight because you're 45 minutes out.

And so I sit there and I look at my phone real quick. There's 1110 flight. I go, hey, if I booked this flight and I get through, can I make that thing? They're like, yeah, maybe. So I booked the 1110 flight direct from JFK to Vegas. I am sprinting. I am running. Taylor hits us. JP and I went through the security.

Whenever Taylor was like, he wasn't even at the desk yet. JP and I just got through security. We were in security for a long time. And then we had that 30 minute walk, bro. And it is the longest fucking walk. And Taylor's like, hey, I just got through security. And I got, no, I was in line still. And I was like, hey, you guys there yet?

Like, have you guys talked to the person? You're like, brother, we just got through. Yeah. And we were like, it's a long, it's the longest walk of your fucking life. But I'm thinking there's no way Taylor's going to make it. So I get through, I end up getting through security and I have like 15 minutes before this flight takes off. Did you run?

You just ran the whole time? I ran the whole time. And I'm brother. Oh, I can imagine. That shit all hurt. Trust me. Yeah. I was exhausted.

I get there. The door is open. Before I can even get to the desk. Lady goes, hey, your friends were here. They said you'd be running like at the last second. Sorry, you missed it. I'm like, we have a cutoff at 10 minutes before the flight takes off. I look at my phone, dude.

eight minutes before the flight takes off. Schedule take off. Eight fucking minutes and the door is still open. I go, there's nothing you're going to do. She goes, no, sorry. She literally walks away. Like, doesn't give me an opportunity. There's plenty of time.

Like, they didn't even close the overhead yet. Like when JP and I are seated. And I'm like, yeah, that's crazy. We're literally, like, I sit down just four minutes ago. Yeah. And the people still getting on the flight, apparently, still working through everything before they even close the doors. No joke.

I am fuming. I'm so fucking mad. So I literally go in the corner, and I set a timer on my phone for 20, minutes. I'm like, this is how long you get to be mad. And I literally was sitting in the corner so fucking mad that I like, do you have your pouty face on? No, I was just, I just sat there and put headphones on and just listen to music for a little bit. And I literally felt like if somebody even, I would be the guy that like person in New York loses it and beat somebody up

because the person asked how their day was going type thing. Like that would be a news article if someone was like, hey, man, what's going on? Here, Leone says the N-word. Can I get a, can I get a photo? One of those things. I'd be like, bro, I would fucking lose it. it right now. 20 minutes goes by. Timer goes off. There's nothing I can do. Catch myself a little meal. Walk around the place a little bit. Get on my flight. Middle seat.

On the 11-10 flight. So five hours, bro. Five hours sitting there. I watched 40 minutes. Watch two movies. I watched a few good men. What was the other one? It was another one with Tom Cruise in it. Oh, Top Gun Maverick.

And then I watched 30 minutes of Titanic. Yeah. I skipped through it all good parts. A few good men's. phenomenal movie. I'll watch that too. Get there and it's great. So now we're in Vegas. We go to Power Slap. Power Slap is great. It was a fun time. Before we hit Power Slap, should we hit this? Oh, yeah. Should we hit an ad read?

We got some Duke Cannon dude. Yeah, some fucking Not for Clown shit. Go ahead. You want to go? You want me to go? This episode is brought to you by Duke Cannon. We like to talk to you about your shower game for a minute. Here's the facts, boys. The body wash you're using right now is weak, watered down, beta, and probably smells like a JV locker room. Simply put, you're a pussy. The boys need a shower of substance after a hard day's work, and that's why we use thick, high viscosity body wash from Duke Cannon. The thicker, the girthier, the better.

Duke Cannon's thick body wash is built to work hard, not spew down the shower drain. All their scents are amazing, but my personal favorite is the midnight swim. It smells like a cannonball into a moonlit lake, not a dip in the hot tub at a starlit motel. Also, my personal favorite product, the face wash, the coal miners face wash. that is my go-to. You have to try Duke Cannon. A limited time we got the boys hooked up with 20% off your first order at Duke Cannon.com with code the Boys 20.

That's 20% off when you use the Boys 20 at Duke Cannon.com. Duke Cannon. Work harder. Smell better. So we're finally in Vegas, dude. We hit Power Slap and it was phenomenal. It was a great time. But Shane Gillis, who is a fucking, he's a stud.

He's a bro. He's our bro, dude. He is all fucking time. he's like, hey, I have a show at the Mirage. You should come, blah, blah, blah. So we leave PowerSlop the minute Wolverine takes the belt back to Missouri. We get on the bus, cruise over the Mirage. We get there probably an hour before the show starts.

Shane's walking around with security. Gets us into the... We go to like the little green room, which is essentially this 1970-style, like, hotel suite. That's like right outside, like behind the kitchen of the Mirage of this coffee shop. We're hanging out there and some cool cats, some cool fucking... Listen, let's be cool about it. Everyone just be cool for a second and relax.

Everyone's sitting, listening, watching the spot. Be fucking cool. You're going to say this. Don't overreact, dude. But we hung out with Joe Rogan. Joe comes in. He's with young Jamie as well, who young Jamie's a homie. He's a fucking homie.

He's a fucking homie. That was the best part because he's an Ohio State cat. Once he was like, oh, I just shook the hand of a Michigan, man. Like he feels dirty type of thing. Yeah, yeah. He's one of the fucking boys. You can just tell he's one of the boys. So we talked to them for a little bit.

we were hanging out. We fucking start talking about. BPC, NAD, the whole thing. Jamie and I are going back and forth about, hey, listen to the Ohio State keeps working hard. Someday you guys will be back type thing. We're having a good back and forth. Hands are sweating the whole time.

It's a fun time. It's a great time. I mean, you'll behind the curtain before. What is that called? The God mic or something like that. God mic? There's a single mic with the curtains right before you walk out on stage.

And Shane goes, all right, well, you're doing it. Will's like, what the fuck am I doing? Yeah, Shane's like, Will, come on, dude. Like, I want you to do the God mic. And I'm just thinking, fuck, what are we about to get into? He's like, uh, Will, I want you to do this. And I'm like, you actually want me to do something. He's like, yeah, essentially like introduced the show.

He's like, you know, say like Las Vegas. And it was, I hate that I'm butchering and forgetting this comedian's name. But Sean, something. He had a, he had a long, a very many syllable last name. Yeah. I think it was three syllables. Yeah, started with a G. But, Jack, do you remember?

I have to put you on the spot. Not Sean Pat. No, not Sean Pat. It's like something. Dude's funny as hell. Yeah, he was funny. But anyway, it's like, you know, basically like, yeah, Los Vegas, are you ready type stuff? And then our first comedian of the night's going to be Sean.

And I tell you what, I am so fucking nervous to perform in front of the boys, to perform in front of the boys. You guys know. So, yeah, be cool, people. And everybody's like, dude, you're going to crush it, man. Like, all you got to do, just fucking do your thing. So I grab the mind. Enthiasm. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So I grab the mic and I'm like, Los Vegas. And you hear everybody going nuts buying the curtain. And then I'm like, you know, Shane's fan base, the dogs. I'm like, do we got any dogs in the house? And you just hear the whole crowd just start barking. They start barking on the mic. I'm like, oh, it's going to be a hell of a show. Our first comedian up.

Sean, I introduce him. The crowd's going nuts. And I get done. And it felt like that my pick six against Georgia, 2012, we went up, first quarter. And, dude, I like couldn't. feel my body. It was such a cool. It was like peak fucking adrenaline.

Yeah. I get done. I look at Taylor. We do like our half little handshake. I jump on him. We're fucking celebrating. I dab up Shane. I dab up Joe. He's like, you crush it. I know Joe. And we're just all getting hype. It'll be cool. Be cool. And dude, it was just all the time. Then we go and sit down out

out in the crowd. Tommy Pope comes out. He crushes it. And then Joe does a surprise set for everybody there. Nobody knew that Joe was going to be there or performing or anything like that. Joe comes out and, dude, it was fucking pandemonium. Yeah, that's the perfect word, dude. Pandemotium. People are up fucking punching the air, like just going nuts. Taylor and I look at each other. Jack and I look at each other. We're like, oh, this is sick. And Joe goes for probably like 20 minutes,

I'd say. Maybe, yeah. 15, 20 minutes. Also, uh, Sean Gardini. Shout out the boy, no disrespect. Hey, he's a guy. He's a sit in the corner guy, smoke a bunch of darts, like very low-key. He treated. He that 70s motel suite like a 70s he was ripping darts the whole time. No windows or nothing, dude. He's just smoking cigarettes, getting after it. And Joe crushes it and then Shane comes out and bro.

Taylor and I are sitting there. We're watching Shane belly laughing, dude. Like, he's my favorite. Obviously, we're a little biased. But Shane is the funniest cat doing it right now, bro. Multiple times, Will and I look at his job, like, Shane's the funniest guy on Earth. On fucking Earth, dude.

Like, hey, Shane, we need to clip this and so Shane can just see it, you're the best, dude. You are the fucking best. You might be the goat, dude. Yeah, you're fucking the goat, dude. He's talking about the fucking Middle East dudes blowing up a tank and getting surprised.

Kangaroos fighting and shit. Like, dude, so fucking funny. And Shane's also a dude that like, he loves being funny. And he pretends like he hates the camera, but he fucking thrives. And after we're going to Red Rocks to Gamble, and we're like, and we'll go, Shane, do Trump.

And he just fucking, without being like, no, man, I just starts, these guys, he fucking starts killing it. You're gay. Yeah. He just starts doing this whole Trump impression. Oh, bro.

It was so fucking funny, dude. It was genuinely, I don't think I've laughed that hard in a long fucking time, dude. Legit, man, legit. I just feel like we're sitting there and we're watching Shane and obviously he's got his special out

that he did in Austin on YouTube. Yeah. Because he was, went through all the cancellations stuff by getting fired from SNL. and he did his special in Austin and he's just been on the come up and I feel like we were getting

to sit there and watch him do stand up and just watch his ascension and one day be known as in our generation as one of the best comics that did it. Yeah. So it's like really cool getting to like witness that because he is fucking hilarious. If you have a chance to go see Shane Gillis, you go see that motherfucker. You go see him. It doesn't matter

where you are. If you have to fly, train, bike, walk. Yeah. You go see him. He is so fucking funny. And legitimately, like, obviously, like, comedy is such as a subjective art. Like, it's either for you or it's for your, it's not for you. But, like, there's no doubt in my mind, Shane is going to own the 20s. Yeah. He's going to own the 20s and possibly the 30s as well. Like, he's so fucking funny, dude.

And it's not like, it's not like, oh, he's funny on stage and he gets out and he walks off the stage. He's like, hey, he's funny all of the time. Yeah, he makes making fun of everybody. He's literally, it's all of the time, dude. And so after the show, we go back. We're all hanging out. And there's a bunch of people back there. Everyone's just having a good time.

Some beer chugs. But this is when my anxiety starts happening. Because I know the boys got to go back to battle. I got to go fucking fight the good fight yet again. Yeah, because there's that after party for the power slaps like back of Red Rocks. Yeah. Plus international fight was the next day. It was like 1230, 1245 at this point.

And so we're like, Shane wanted to go. And those are back and forth. Sheen's like, I can't leave my boys? I'm like, dude, bring them. We have a bus. I just bring all the boys. We'll just go because it's like, a party is like, can we get in? I was like, dude, yeah, you can just walk in.

It's all good. It's like an inclusive, like only few people are going to be there, which it wasn't. It was pretty packed. It was pretty packed, dude. Bree Chandler and Michael Chandler are texting us being like, hey, you need to come. Erica, who runs power slap. She's like, you need to get here. Dana's down.

We need some good juju. And so we end up, the whole crew ends up coming. Like, Shane's boys, Joe, did Pauly Shore go or no? No, Pauley Shore didn't go. We got, Jamie came. Everybody, literally the whole crew, like, gets in the bus or they think they're rides and we go to Red Rocks. And we all like walk in, walk in together. And it's like, there's the, there's the high roll area. And then the back is right the two private rooms are

when we go gamble. And then on one side, the right side is usually we're gambling. We look and it's like littered, dude. Like the Nelk boys are there. There's this blonde dude who's apparently like this online gambler. I don't know his name. But I looked over and he had stacks and stacks and stacks of orange $5,000 chips. Like, I had no idea what he bought in for, but my God, was he murdering the fucking game. And then I see Dana, you know, when you do the credit line, you do an open credit line as you're gambling, there's little chips that come out and says 10,000. If you get past 10, they'll take those 10 chips away

and they'll put 100,000 one down. And then that motherfucker was what he'll do. There's like a bunch of skittles fell out of a bag. Like that's how many of those motherfuckers were out there. And Joe and I are talking and we're walking in. Joe's like, dude, the second we walk in there, Dana's going to grab me and talk to me about power slap. And I'm like, oh, there's no fucking doubt about it.

And this man's at war. Like we're talking about half a million dollars right now that he's getting back and forth on. Joe goes and gives him a headlock and Dana's like Oh, what's up, dude? Daps him up and they're talking And he's like, let me talk to you for a second. Come over, come over here. And Joe's like, hey, Taylor's doing it. He's fucking

doing it. Save me. And I'm thinking, brother, I'm not going to go tell Dana what to deal. You guys are going to have your conversation. 10 minutes go by and there's another table that's all by itself. And I look over, I walk up in my head, you're ready to do this? He's like, yeah, let's go. So we go to war. Like, everyone's still going. Dana's still got all his chips

out. And I'm in the battle yet again, dude. And it was it was probably one of the longer battles, Jack, was that 140 night. 140 was probably the longest, but that one, that was the latest we'd ever started, though, too. So it kind of got a little hazy. Yeah. But, yeah, for Dana especially, he was in the trenches when we got in the trenches. And I went down.

I was, I was hopped up when we were at Red Rock. Yeah. Yeah. After I had to do those fucking chugs. She's just like, hey, you got to do this. Yeah. It's like, God damn it, man. Yeah.

but we go, I'm down like, I think, 120 at one point where we're going back and forth. There's one point where Dana, if you're, the chips are, if it's not going well, you start playing two hands. And at Red Rocks, I can play one hand of $30,000 or two hands of $25,000.

And I go two hands, $25,000, one of the hands turned into a split. And the other one was a double. And I win the double, but I lose both of the split. Taylor wins the double in that just to, because I know the story you're telling, just to preface. The hand that you won is the one.

one right in front of you where we're standing. Right. The split and the double seemed like he was in front of Dana because he was messing with the chips. Yeah. And so I win one and then lose two. So I end up losing like 25

over like this hand probably was a $100,000 hand. Like there was a 50,000 here and a 50 with another double so a $125,000. And I win one, lose one. And Will's like, fuck yeah,

you did it. I'm like, man, shut the fuck up. We just lost again. He's like, no, man, what are you talking about? I go,

Doug, you won. He goes, I just lost that other hand. on the split. I go, oh, shit, I thought that was Danis. You're like, no, he's just, he's just helping. He's like, I lost that hand. I was like, oh, shit. Yeah. But we end up coming back to the winning, I think, like 75, right? Yeah. And so, and then once that, like, uh, once that happens, then all the bros, we all just kind of sit down, we just gamble. Sit down and that was fun. A thousand, that was fun. A thousand. Sit there and better $100, $200 hands. That's that photo

where we're all sitting around. That's late as fuck at that point. That's like 233 o'clock now. So 233 o'clock in Vegas is five o'clock in New York. So Will and I have to, yeah, three o'clock is five. Six o'clock in New York. It's three hours difference? Yeah, three hours. We're central times two hours out. We're at 25 hours being up straight.

Yeah. And so, like, shortly after this picture was taken, boys are like, hey, let's go. I'm sitting there. I'm probably literally scheming like how in the hell do I either lose it all or walk away and just go upstairs and go to bed? No doubt. So we ended up winning some cash.

I know Jamie did well when we were sitting down there, winning this hand or winning. Did you do well right there when you were just sitting? No, I just had a couple thousand out and I've been a little ridiculous. We were just hanging though. That was like one of the hanged, just played blackjack. Which is the most fun, do you. Like, when you go to the stressful thing, it's great because if you win, obviously

you win a lot of money, but sitting down with five of your buddies and just playing whatever happens happens. But the conversations are going on camaraderie. Someone has an ace put down first. Like, oh, let's fucking go, buddy. And then you get a three on top of it. You're like, oh, fuck, that sucks. But it's like, it's a good time, dude.

So we end up going to bed and waking up at like 9.30. So we're hitting their probably 4 o'clock go to bed and wake up at 9, 9.30. We hit breakfast or we hit brunch, whatever, and then we go out to the pool, win some money at the pool at the blackjack at the pool. Yeah, that was fun. And then we get to go to a UFC 290, which to UFC 290, dude, that was bucketless. Like I remember I've told Taylor before, I'm like, dude, you get to sit like in Vegas and a UFC fight, get close to the action because to you had went to the Diaz McGregor and I was like, man, that is so fucking sick. Yeah, I was back in like 16, but I was up in the noseble. Yeah.

With incognito and Taylin. Bro, we were in the second row down here on. the floor, dude. Like, it was insane. Bro, the most insane shit is you go and sit down that row and it's taped off with names on it. And like, literally one will say, well, Compton. Another one will say Taylor-Lawand.

And the one next to it will say Mark Wahlberg. It's all right. I mean, it was under your name. So both were Taylor-Lawain. You got Taylor-L-W-W-You-Ga. Yeah, for sure. All move by Taylor, though, right there. I was a homey plus.

Thank you. He said it a couple times. I think one time he said it to me. It was just me and him talking. I'm just like, hey, it's all. It's awesome. But anyway, like, you're sitting there and it's like, bro, obviously 45 is sitting right at the front with Dana. Like in that, we'll get into that in a second.

But then, like, right in front of us, Mark Wahlberg is sitting in his crew sitting right next, right next to us, one row behind. Right in front of me to the left dude is my king, Johnny Knoxville, sits down with his wife. Next to him is Theo, which I think we can talk about the beef is squashed. Maybe. I mean, he needs to come up to the bar. Yeah, yeah. You're right, you're right. Him and then like Miles Taylor.

David Spade. Miles Teller's... Yeah, Miles Taylor. Mel Gibson. It's just nuts, dude. And it's like we have the crew obviously the Nug Boys

were there too right next to us. I mean, Shane's, he's down the way, but he's there. He's like right behind. David Gaggans. He's behind Joe and the, D.C., Daniel Cormier.

He's behind the commentators. Yeah, David fucking Gagins. It was insane. It was insane. It was nuts, dude. I was just looking around there several months and I are just looking and we're just like,

you know, when the fuck are we here, it's one of those things where you don't even like, talk, you just kind of look and go, this is crazy. You go back to just being in the moment of everything that's going on. Yes, bro. Luckily, dude, Jack and J.P are there to capture moments because Will and I are just kind of sitting there like, holy fuck, this is so cool to be a part of at that close of those

fights and all the fights were fucking amazing. It was an incredible card. It was so much fun. And so we're sitting there and obviously Knoxville's there and Will's like, I got to get you a photo with him. I got you a phone. I'm like, no, dude, just let him fucking do. I was like, there was a couple comments like, like Theo would lean back and say

something to me and then I'd make a comment back and there was one time I made a comment and I saw Knoxville laugh at the comment I thought I've done everything else the comment I can't remember it was like uh Theo said something and then I says like oh we were talking about getting hit hitting the dick and then waiting this long all this whole crowd just waiting you for your penis to feel better and then we talk about it'd be better to have a small dick in this situation and then having a big dick like a big dick anyway I said something about a big dick and knoxville hit a Knoxville hit like a, you could see him laugh. I'm like, yes. I know. I was trying to get,

I wasn't trying to, but I told him, I'm like, by the end of this, because he left early, Johnny left early before the main event. I was like, at the end of this, like, I'm getting you a photo. I don't give a shit. I'm letting you know right now. I'm going to go over to John. I'm, hey, my boy behind you, he is such a massive fan. A little shy, a little nervous he didn't want to ask. But he would, it would be unreal if you guys got a photo together. But he did end up leaving early. By the way, his skin, his his skin is phenomenal. He really keeps up well with his face. He's a phenomenal skin. But at one point, dude, here's what I'll say about a president of the United States.

You're just addressing. I'm addressing it. Because one thing I'm proud of is our comment section is pretty even of Democrats or Republicans. Oh, you were, yeah, I remember JP being like, hey, the comment section's pretty fucking all over the places. It's just like, you know that's going to happen. You know that's going to happen. Yeah.

But I've also had people that are a Democrat who reach up to me and be like, yo, what the fuck? I'm like, here's a deal. If there's a president of the United States, regardless of he's a Republican or Democrat, like, if there's a president, you have the opportunity to shake their hand at one point or is now the leader of the free world, you get a photo. Like, that's cool. It doesn't matter. One thousand percent. I mean, it's fucking, it's, Donald Trump's literally sitting no farther than 10 feet away from us the entire fight. And he's nice to everybody coming up to him. And I look over to Taylor and I'm like, hey, because Danny, he's sitting next to Dana the whole time because they're obviously

boys. And I look over tail on my kill. Like, we got to get a photo. We got to get a photo. Absolutely. So I had Dana if I was like, hey, can we get a photo with you in 45? And he decks back absolutely. Yeah. So right before the main card comes out, it was like, hey, come on. Even before that, Dana is like, introduces me and well to Trump. And we shake his hand, dude. And in true Trump fashion, he goes, a couple of big strong men. Yeah. A couple of strong, good looking men to us. And I'm just thinking, That's exactly the fucking thing you want to hear. Yeah. Oh, fuck, bro.

So funny. And then we take that photo and he looks at me and he goes, you're doing great. I'm thinking, bro, you have no idea how I'm doing. But that's so fucking funny. You just say that shit. And he just is exactly what you've seen him as with all his lines and stuff like that.

Like it was a phenomenal experience. Yeah, that was the only one I was intimidated to get a picture for like to ask. Like, because obviously we shook Trump's hand and I'm thinking like, yeah, we, like, let's just take a photo. Like, I'm sure it feels kind of weird,

but everybody was coming up to him. And all the, all the, like, celebs, the movie stars and stuff like that, like everybody's being super friendly. So you didn't feel, you didn't feel dumb being like, yeah, let's get a photo. But the only one I was intimidated by,

which Jack and JP did was David Gagans. I saw him and I'm like, you know, he probably just doesn't want to be fucking bothered whatsoever. He's thinking about running right now. He's upset he's sitting. Yeah, he wants to just stay hard as fuck. He just loves watching the guys in the octagon. You know he doesn't want to take photos.

Yeah. But he was probably the only one I was like, I'll just let him just do his thing. Yeah, that's how it was with Johnny. I want to appreciate from far that David Goggins is in the building. Yeah, dude. That was a, it was just an unbelievably cool. All around awesome time.

And then like getting to meet David Spade, Joe Dirt, like he's, that's when he walked by and I was like, hey, man, I just want to say like, I've been a massive fan of you forever. He's like, oh, good to see you, man. I'm just thinking like, you have no clue who I am, but I'm just being a fan. But I was just like, man, you're just, I just wanted to say, like, I've been a big fan of all your stuff, bro. But one person that did recognize us, Mark Wahlberg.

Yeah. Like he came and sat down. He got there a little after the main card started. And he was turned the corner and he was like, oh, what's up, dude? How are you guys doing? And we were like, oh, yeah. Gave me a little bit longer look. I got you, the motherfucker, dude.

That bodied him. Oh, you're in Transformers? Yeah. Oh, you're in Transformers? But yeah, it was fun. A couple cameras came by. Obviously, I mean, we were being stupidest fuck in the background of those. Yeah, I mean, those are the ops, man.

Those are the ops. Like, we knew we were sitting behind. Like, Trump was obviously in front of Walberg. Walberg's sitting in front of us. They're even showing Max because Max is the guy for the Raiders. So you're like, oh, man, there's going to be so many opportunities just to sneak a little photo bomb in there. Yeah, get in the camera, get in some camera action.

Someday, dude, someday we'll be highlighted. For now, that's our moment. That's our moment behind the scenes. I saw some, I don't know what account it was, but they were showing all the big celebrities and stuff there, and you guys made it in there. No way. It's pretty good.

Be cool. Be cool. Be cool. Be cool. Be cool. So overall, a great experience, dude. We go back to gamble at Red Rocks and, you know, Dana hit me up the next day saying, hey, man, I passed out my bed, which is fun. But we did, I did keep everybody up a long time to go gamble. And then it ended up Irish good-bying everyone, too.

So. I'm just glad you said it. It's all, that's all you needed. It was what it is. Yeah. I did take it. You do the Irish goodbye. He's all this.

I'm just thinking, that's not, that's not what I'm trying to hear right now, dude. It's okay when Will does it. not when I do it. No. All right. I get it. There's a double standard in our relationship. You do understand the situation or no?

100%. 100%. Do you want me to explain it so you feel better? No, no. I just don't know if you're hitting me with the jokes. I'm thinking. No, bro. I understand when I did that.

I literally like, once you text you, I can't believe you did that. I'm thinking, all right. I literally got my key card and I was going to walk back downstairs. Because you face it. I was like, oh, no, we're going back up. Yeah.

And I was like, I'm coming back down right now. I hit Shane the next day. I was like, hey, how was Jack Harlow? No, no response. It's like, probably still sleeping. Probably, dude. He went to Harlow at 2 a.m. Yeah, like, he didn't go on until 2.30.

Yeah. Yeah, we're literally at the airport being like, they're probably still at the concert. Yeah. And it's like, dude, and that flight was miserable. Wasn't as bad for myself. Like, I felt like I got in a good, a good few hours because I taped the mouth shut. I had the sleep mask. I had the A1.

I had the emergency exit with all the leg room. My boy, my six foot one buddy over here took the all leg room. I was hot, but like, it was because I was so over tired. Like, I was mad at everything. No question. We're all, everybody's on it. Everybody's ready just for an on edge moment. Like, loki, I wanted that seat so bad.

And when he took it, there was a piece of me that felt stolen. Like that shit was stolen for me. But I go- You got me to look across the other side. I'm just thinking, I have a one. Yeah, yeah. I go and sit in the seat on the other aisle, and I had plenty of room. I could extend my legs all the way.

Like, I was perfectly comfortable. I was like, all right, this is, that's where you sit there and go, yeah, you're just tired. Yeah. Yeah, because when we were going back and forth, that's why I was trying to sell you. I was trying to sell you on that. I was like, dude, I swear to the other side, because which you would say it's true now, yeah? Yeah. I was like the one with the exit row and all the extra leg room, that same row, it's more of like a regular, closer to a regular seat than like an extra leg room emergency row.

I was like on the other side when they go threes, you're going to get more leg room over there. The shitty part is we just don't get to sit by each other. Yeah, but I will say, I think I like that seat better, really thinking about it because the exit row that you have, there's no seat in front of you. you, the two, like, things you can't move up and, like, kind of get out of the way. This one, that far one, you have just as much leg room, but you can't, like, you can move the little armrest, the little armrest. You know, the little armrest. You can put them up?

You can put them up. And so I look, he was like, this might be my new move, honestly, if I can pull this one off. It was nice. It was a nice little deal. That's a massive win amidst adversity. Yeah. You know what I mean? Absolutely.

But is there anything? Oh, the flight dude back. Obviously, it's a 5 a.m. So all the windows are up. My window, I try to put it up. I was behind you. I was shuming about that. The light coming in?

I put it up and then I let go and it go and there'd be this much room. And for whatever reason, like, it kept me up a little bit more than I wanted to. Your eyes are closed, but you're just thinking about the window being done so you can't actually calm down. Yeah. No, obviously when I close my eyes now, it's like a little more red because there's so much light. And it was like, I would, at one point, close my eyes, grabbed it and lifted it up. And it was all dark. And I was like, this motherfucker, this fucking little thing right here.

It was broken. I was mad about that too. So it was what it is, dude. At that point, you're 72 hours. Two hour nap. Two hours and what, five plus two. So seven hours of sleep. Just tough, dude.

Fucking tough. All together. Slept 14 hours. Overall, 4.5. say. No question. That's a 4.5 trip if I've ever seen more. Yeah, that's 4.5 for sure. Should we, we're in our industry. Should we do shout out, no free shout out and pet peeve of the week? I got mine. Yeah. All right. You want to go for a second? Oh, we're doing pet peeve or shout out? All my list pulled up right now, shout out, no free shout out. My shout out no free shout

out is going to go to good neighbors. You just can't beat having good neighbors. We're gone and we need something, whether it's the trash to be taken out or, hey, the delivery happen, you mind going to grab and holding on to it. We have a good set of neighbors. I won't say their names because I don't know if they want to be, I don't know if they want to be said. They want their names to be said, but we have some fucking phenomenal neighbors across the street.

And that's my shout-out, dude. I just feel like you have good neighbors. It makes life. It makes your house that much better. Because you know you're taking care of. That's a great shout-out, no-free shout-out. My shout-out, no-free shout-out goes to when you're driving a vehicle on the highway during a big rainstorm and you get that

split second of peace when you go over go under a bridge. It's like that is the moment where you're kind of like regaining yourself and being able to be like

all right we're safe because there are all those rainfalls where like holy fuck dude it's really coming down I think of you guys I'm being extra safe

right now with the way I'm driving and that little moment of piece of driving under a bridge that's my shout and no free shout up that's good that was a good one

thanks brother thank you I actually got that from somebody on Twitter somebody commented or DM me that I was like, oh, I'm a keep. That's a fucking good one.

Shout out the individual that DM me. I don't remember your name. It's almost better to just be like, oh, yeah, I guess that's fair. It almost be better to say the name if you, like, remember it. So, yeah, hey, I'm using this. Or just don't say their name at all. Just act like that. Yeah, and just take all the credit.

Yeah. And that's not me. That's not me. I'm fucking, I'll have my people's back. Do you guys want to do one in the back day? You show you want to go straight to PetPee? I've got one. All right.

And it pertains to this weekend, but I'm shutting out to accessible transportation. When I say that, I mean shout to our boy John at the Red Rock. Hell yeah. There's no better feeling than being at any event, especially where in Vegas when it's so chaotic, there's so much traffic and things going on that when we need to leave a place and be somewhere in 20 minutes, we walk out of a building and there's a vehicle waiting to take us to wherever we want to be.

It makes you feel really important. And also just like alleviates a lot of unneeded stress. And we're always in some like really nice escalate or like a 20-person. passenger van for four people. So shout out to our boy John, the Red Rock, and really accessible. And not just the vehicle sitting out there, but Johnny with high vibes.

Oh, he's great, dude. He's like, how's it going, boys, you have fun. He's like, you see that fight? And you're like, John, come hang out with us. Yeah, and he did. He did come and hang out for a little bit. I love John. He's the best.

He'll hit me up. He'll randomly text me like on a Wednesday, but I hope you're doing great. Hope you're having a great day. And then gives me one of these. Yeah. You're the best. I'll fuck with John.

so heavy, man. He's like, it's awesome. All those people do, the customer service at Red Rocks is just stupid. It's like, I can't even, I've never experienced anything like that. They take good care of it, for sure. I've been in a five-star places. I've been there. I've seen the areas. And I don't think I've ever gotten taken care of like I do at Red Rocks. They have great customer service. That of like a Chick-fil-A or at, I need to know. Thanks, brother. Establishment.

Yeah. I also want to give a shout to Joe as well. Joe, who always hooks us up. Always there walks us up to the room. He's incredible. Sleak, ballshead, gray beard. Yeah, handsome individual. Yeah. Great beard.

So shout to him to obviously Blair and Sean as well. All right. Onward. Pet peeve. My pet peeve of the week is going to be not putting away your bin at the airport. I hate when the belt or whatever starts to get crammed and people just grab their stuff and they go and they don't put away their bin. They don't stack them. I'll sit there and stack them because it just.

just for whatever reason it bothers me. It's almost like people who don't like clean up the rim of a toilet seat or something like that. I just hate when we're putting away your shopping cart. Like when it's just out in the middle somewhere, people like leave their shopping cart. Like just fucking put your shit away. Insecurity like, you know, it gets backed up enough at times. Not that we were in really any of those situations, but you want to keep that thing flowing smooth. And to do so, we also have to do our part as Jim Pop as.

the pedestrian to make sure we keep everything organized and flowing smoothly for our, for the common man behind us ready to go and get on their flight. Somebody could be running behind. And you're cramming it up with not stacking your bins. And then it gets all the way up there. You've got to hang on a second. You know, you do it. But I digress.

Pepe for the week, not putting away your bins at the airport. Now, there is a couple of places you go to. I believe LaGuardia might be one where there's a sign specifically that says, do not stack bins. Yeah, I mean, if it's like set on a sign, but most spots you're going to. 100%. You're lining those things up so you can get them down. So because if you don't, people are going to sit there and stand in front of the empty bin.

Everybody's going to start stacking in behind each other and say you're behind me and you see your bin come out because maybe mine got got got and I didn't see it. I'm saying there. So you got to like reach over me and get, oh, excuse me, I'm just going to get my stuff. Then maybe the other person is right behind and everybody's just right there on top of each other. It's just like, yo, take your bin so everybody can kind of wait down the belt line themselves for their own bin. Oh, that's mine, slide it down a little faster. Right. Help everybody out, man.

That's what I'm about at the fucking airport. One thing you brought up, too, about the shopping car. Like, that takes an extra effort, especially if you're not near the card thing, but that is a needed thing in the society we need right now. No doubt. You need to take that extra effort to put that that grocery cart away. And listen, I'm one of the, the laziest people that I know. That's why I park right next to the fucking shopping cart thing.

Which is a ballsy move. And everybody says that. Like, oh, it could get hit. It could get this. I'm like, I don't give a fuck. Like, if I'm pushing the fucking shopping shopping shopping. card out. I want to put my shit away and I want to put that shopping cart right right next to the truck.

There is a level of being like, fuck, man. When you see you're in an empty parking lot with a shopping cart, you're like, I could just leave this motherfucker here. Yeah, but I like, I like, you know, get it and push and see it and get it in. And then if it curves off to the side, like, man, I just need it a little bit more of the right angle. And then I just go put you. Yeah, another cart. My pet peeve of the week is going to go to

paper straws. that shit dude you fucking you if I black ice coffee that's what I drinked you in the mornings especially if you put a paper straw in my shit I got to I'm thinking to myself

I got to chug this coffee otherwise I'm gonna be in hell in the next three minutes it gets so soggy you can barely get the juice out of you're sucking the shit out of that thing no pause and it's just like whole it's like what do we do what happened to save paper used plastic

and I get it plastic's not good we saw one turtle with something up its nose once we're like this can't happen ever again I thought it slipped to the save plastic used paper. Maybe I'm off. I think it was in the back of the day. I think it was maybe before you were born, Mitch. I think before I was a young lad, I would say safe paper used plastic.

I don't know. I might have to get fact-checked. Back when our grandparents were young. Yeah. They were big on using plastic then. But there's a lot of other things you do hemp. Hemp, you can make straws of hemp. Do that.

Because when you mentioned the paper straws like, dude, I'm fucking with you. Like, we need more plastic. And you're like, relax, brother. You're like, you're like, hemp can get the job done too. I'm like, all right, all right. Yeah, Missouri just popping out. You're fucking right. Yeah.

Yeah. It's a, it's annoying. It's so annoying. Especially if it's a drink like a coffee where you kind of want to sip it. You don't want to drink it too fast. It's like, dude, I can't be having this paper in my life like that. Soggy too. And then.

Soggy paper. It's just tough. So that's my pet peeve for the week. Boys, you have any pet peeves out there you want to say? I got one. I'll do one. My pet peeve of the week is, it typically only happens. when you're eating like a hot dog or hamburger, but it's when like your ketchup or mustard gets

down to the end and like you're you're trying to squeeze obviously like squeeze it out and then it just fucking splatters everywhere. Then it just gets on you like all over your plate, all over your other clothes or your other food and it just you're like what the fuck. It just pisses you off really quick and you have shit everywhere all over your plate. So my pet peeve is when those, your condiment bottles just squirt everywhere. I'm with that. That's why you got to fucking take that motherfucker and Like you're stabbing somebody, just throw that thing down and try to get at the edge. But it still does it. Especially if it's, especially if it's light.

Yeah. Especially for the rookie move too. Like a rookie move is when you take a squirt bottle of ketchup, you can just quickly turn it down and squeeze it. It's like half full. And you get that water ketchup. That shit is fucking rough. It happened to me a few days ago.

Get it? But you literally sit there and like, you get mad at the situation, then you realize like I have no one to blame on myself. No doubt. Because you know you can just kind of put your finger on the tip, give it a quick shake. And you'll never have to deal with that little weird

water. That shit does fuck up a day. It fucks up a day. Before we get into Kelsey, is there anything you want to ask us, Jack? Yeah. We have a twisted question of the week. Is there anything that we have to preface saying it? Like...

Yeah, well, there's an ad if you want to go ahead and rip that to introduce. Line for line. Oh, yeah, yeah. Absolutely. This would this be what it is? Are you sure that this one, like this question is going to be the twisted question? This segment sponsor. is that.

Okay, so for our twisted question, going along with Vegas, we are going to do fuck, Mary, kill with some of the biggest celebrity names we saw this weekend. We could have done the same three for both of y'all, but we're going to do individual that kind of tailors to y'all's taste. Okay. So, Will, we're going to start with you. Fuck, Mary Kill, David Goggins, Joe Rogan, and Miles Teller. That's a good one. Now, we talking like fuck, Married Kill, legit?

We talking sharing a life. Oh, yeah, sharing a life. And if we get divorced, I get 50. You'll probably sign a pre-nup, homie. You'll probably have to sign a pre-nup. Maybe. One might have to sign a pre-up. Depends what that mouth do.

It depends on how that throat works before. Maybe I talk them out of the pre-nup. No doubt. You don't want to do that, do you? You don't want a pre-up. Yeah, it's kind of like going in with your fingers crossed, right? Like, we shouldn't do that. We shouldn't do this thing for real.

Mary Fuck Kill, you said Rogan Goggins, Teller. Correct. That's an easy one for me. Yeah, I'm gonna marry Rogan. 1,000% on marrying Rogan. Just fucking, yeah. The other one's a little... You think it's easy.

Yeah. For me, when I think about it. Yeah. Yeah, I think you marry Rogan just because nobody really knows of... Of all the big account, not that I'm a gold digger. but he does very well. And we'll just take some like horsy-wormer and some fucking pet tides

for the rest of our lives. I'm gonna fuck Teller. He's a good-looking cat. You wish he had a little bit more of a strong jaw line. Maybe he can start taping his mouth shut when he sleeps in night. It might help open up the nasal breathing a little bit to help adopt and develop a stronger jaw.

But I'm gonna go with Miles Teller because he looked phenomenal in Top Gun Maverick. especially when he got sweaty and he's playing out on the beach with the boys and they're all kind of like shred it up and you're like oh I got to go I got to hit me a set right now and then I'm going to kill David Gagins for sure you don't want nobody yelling at you I think he's he's been divorced a few times but you could just imagine saying like who's going to use the rest of the toothpaste

brother take it easy like it's pretty much empty yeah you kill Gaggins too you're probably free to move about any part of the world too like you go to those troubled countries yeah you know that America's fighting they're like oh, this guy's killed one of them. Yeah, for sure. And you just don't want to wake up in the middle of the night, and he's screaming like the same thing. Who's going to carry the boats?

And it's just like, sweetheart, you're having a night terror. You're having a night terror. Yeah. Can I do wills? You can. All right, I would marry Teller, fuck Rogan, kill Goggins. Okay. Why's that?

Rogan seems busy. I don't know if he'd give me the time I need. Teller's more handsome cat. We both have resistance kids. So I feel like... You guys travel? He seems to travel. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. It's it. I feel like, um... I, yeah, I think I would go there. Rogan, I'd probably fuck Rogan and be like, if you don't pay me, I'm going to tell Will. Because you guys are married. I'm trying to get that fucking cat. Yeah, like, Rogan, it's almost, that's beneficial.

Like, he's got to work all the time. So you'll get your, I'll get my free time. I'll get my... Yeah. Hang out with the boys. Hang out with the bros. That's probably what I would do for those three, but... Just for fun, let's do your list.

And then Will, you can... and follow up. Okay. So for the following, Shane Gillis, Johnny Knoxville, Mark Wahlberg. Wow.

I'm not trying to fuck Shane. Nobody, like, look at that. Shane's got that, yeah, he's got that body, too, that just doesn't see any daylight, any day of the week.

So he bruises easy. Pat him on the back, dude, and there's a welt for a week. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's gonna turn all the shades of colors.

Yellow right before he gets back to that skin tone. Give me those names again? Shane Gillis, Johnny Knoxville, Mark Wahlberg. I'm going to kill Walberg. What?

And this is where I kind of run into a struggle. Because if it's just the boys hanging out, we're just kind of sleep in it. As long as we're moving to my house and not Shane's, I'd probably marry Shane. I'm fucking Knoxville. Because Shane's a homie. And if you just chill, it's like,

you know, the whole sex thing would be tough. for two reasons. I'm not gay. And what you talked about was Shane. Let me switch it. I think that's what your list is. And Knox was kind of old. Marry the dog.

Yeah, I'm going to marry the dog. I'm going to marry the dog. I'm going to fuck Knoxville and I'm going to kill Walberg. You know? I feel like it kind of goes into what your things with Goggins. Like Walper got a crazy schedule too. He's up at three. I like my sleep. I don't want to... It's all right. Just tell him not to wake you up.

He will. He will. He gets up. He's got that soft-moving voice. Walberg's at the age where he gets out of bed and goes, and makes all the fucking noises the whole time. He probably turns on some motivational music. He's probably got some Bible on tape that he listens to while he brushes his teeth. Like, there's a lot of shit that I'd be woken up by.

So that's probably where I'm... And then if you get to chill with the dog, you know, we'd probably have to put in a couple of rules about the bedroom and putting pillows up and stuff like that. But, yeah, I think it would be all right. I think that's... I like that list. I'm going to go, I'm killing Shane because he dodged him downs.

Like, you know, he's got that chromosome in there to where you can't really procreate with him. So I don't think I'd want to reproduce with Shane. I'm going to fuck Johnny Knoxville, Silver Fox, great skin. You know, he's a great time. Jackass, all this stuff he's done. You know, he's probably great in bed. And then I'm going to marry Wahlberg. Those who pray together, stay together.

And I think Mark and I would have a very... I'm married my Walberg. A very fruitful life together. What I found out in this merry fuck kill is Will is a gold digger. Like, do you marry in Walberg for the money? No, I was just marrying Walberg because I wanted to say those who pray together say together. Oh, because you wanted to say that. Rogan, it's like, you know, it's such an obvious marriage there.

You know what I mean? Podcasters. Rogan. Comedians? Yeah. Jacked. Yeah. I get it.

I get it. Questioning everything. Yeah. You're doing shrooms and getting high with Rogan. Like, you're about to have a great time. late in night, whatever it is, laughing at whatever, going down, whatever conspiracy wormhole that may be on YouTube. Check this out.

Yeah, we get somebody in you and all that. Oh, yeah. So you got you guys in town. We'll get the backlog a few. You know the grind a little bit now. It's, dog. It is a grind at that, especially, after the season, I was like, holy shit.

I didn't know I was going to get myself into all this. Oh, is there like a lot of deliverables you guys had to hit? No, I was just, I was only thinking it was going to be like the season. And then it ended up being what it was because we had a blue the fuck up and super bowl. Dude. People just keep asking for it. I'm just like, I mean, if you look at a timeline of when you guys decided to make that, there's not a better fucking timeline.

Dude, it did, uh, possibly pick. The greatest mix. It was stupid how it all timed up and how it all kind of just mesh together, man. How did it start? Like, how did you get into it? it. Who had, you know, who had to... I think, uh... I mean, I think it goes back to 2018, right?

If you think about it. How do you get the idea for podcast? The inspiration. There's a couple of... The motivation. 1000% you guys definitely paved the way. One thousand percent. And you guys made it fucking look like it was a blast. You know what I mean? Like, I'm sitting here like, man, those guys are

enjoying every single one of these things, kind of created their own fucking world. Like, 1,000 percent. We definitely, uh, we definitely saw you guys doing it. It was like, man, this looks like something that we might be. might be able to jump into as well. So I think we got hit up with about podcasting. And I was like, the only way I do it is if I did it with my brother. And I think from there, me and Jason, I always wanted to do something together in the entertainment world.

And there's just kind of like the transition into it, I guess. Was Jason all in from the start? Because he's obviously, he's been somebody who hasn't been like a, he's never been like a social media guy like that. I know he's been pressing on. He's a massive theatrics guy. He is. He saw when they won the Super Bowl back in the day.

He gave that talk after they won this. Elite talk. Elite talk. I remember Chris Long would always say, like, how he pressed, Jason, like, hey, you should do more, you should do more. Classic offensive linemen. Classic offensive line. I don't know. I don't want to. Special group, man.

Special group of dudes. Special group. For sure. Who approached you? You said people approached you. Doing a podcast. There were a few different production, like, companies that kind of came to the board or they came to the table. I would say, I really don't want to throw any names out there because, you know, I really don't want to throw any names out there because, because,

We ended up choosing wave sports over all of them. So it was kind of like they hit us up about it. And it kind of had the best like, I don't know, line of action to go forward. And we vibe with them the most in terms of like the writing and like how we script everything out per show. And from there it was kind of just getting my brother on board. He's a he's a stubborn dude and like real business mentality. Yeah. So it was like for him to weigh out the options.

I was just like, I mean, these guys were fun to kind of hang with. You want to just do it with them. And my brother's like going through like the business side of things. I'm like, listen, however we got to get the same going, let's do it, man. As long as you own that IP. Right now. All right now. Right now.

You know, we got that in that. When it first started, did you think to yourself like it was going to blow up as quick as it did? A fucking chance, dude. There's no way. Why not? Hurry. I don't know, man. You got an advisor.

You know what? That's imposter syndrome. You got going because literally you, arguably one of the best, no, there's nothing, arguably. One of the best tenants of all time. Thank you for that. Your brother who is going to be a Hallfamer has won a Super Bowl. Both of you've already won a Super Bowl. Like, it's, you guys are essentially the new JJ Wat brothers.

You guys are the new Darling brothers. New Wat brothers. He's done of the JJ Watt. He started it. You guys are essentially the new darling brothers of the NFL. Dude. Yeah. No, it was, um, I definitely didn't expect to get that much fucking.

You know what it was? It was the East Coast is the Philly like, like crowd. Nuts. I don't realize how big that city is and how crazy they are until like we started of the podcast and you start seeing how much like the comments and everything is real like Philly kind of heavy. So what were you most nervous about doing podcasts after every game? Andy Reed.

Oh, for real? Andy Reed. There was no, like, I was like, the first thing I thought I was like, fuck, Coach Reed's going to kill me if I really do this. I feel like you just get him a greasy snack. Talk about the games. Talk about this. Just catch a ball on third and ten and then we're good, right?

Yeah. No, he, I'll tell you what. Coach, he does a good job of keeping guys in line, even though he likes to have fun with man and he's not a big like media guy so when we actually got him on new heights it was man it was fucking fireworks me and my brother were both sitting there like uptight like couldn't even bro it was so funny we were just like going down the list of like questions just making sure that we like i don't know just asked them the right shit and didn't like wander off into telling too many stories about shit that we were probably going to have to delete so incredible

episode by the way yeah thank you man once you get your head coach on it's like all right everything's kind of fair game here that was with us and brayble dude we got Ravel to come on. We're like, we're good. We were nervous. We were nervous as fuck. We were nervous as fuck too. Oh, for that? Yeah. I know. But that was when he was just peppering you and I was kind of just off the side. Watch when my boy gets telling me two an hour and a half. It was tough. But he did talk about cutting his dick off for a Super Bowl and that's what helped. That's what Spike does. Shout out the podcast on that one. We needed them on that, dude. But when you

talk about looking at questions, do you write out your own questions or does this production company write out all the questions for you guys? They pretty much do everything. Yeah. I am. I I kind of just, I'll have like one or two things that I want to ask whoever we have on there. Or if we'd like go through the run of show and I'll like kind of think of something on the spot, I'll just shoot it and either it's ass and it gets deleted or we keep it and it was a banger. So yeah, in terms of like the creativity of it all, I kind of just leave that up to the professionals so I can just show up and have some fun, man. And do your thing.

That's part of the reason why you chose them too because you felt like you got along and they're like, oh, these guys, you know, they got some humor. They kind of think the way we do and shit like that. Exactly. Because they got a couple now. It's like you guys and then Paul George, I believe. Yeah. They got a good one with him too.

Yeah. What the brothers do? The darling brothers. Like, what was it like growing up with your brother? Like, we guys always super competitive, but you guys always together? Because you guys, from the outside, looking in, seem like the closest dudes of all time.

I mean, everything you could think of. At dinner time, we're playing cards to video games outside, playing every fucking sport you can imagine, just competing at everything. And he had anger management. So I knew how to like take it there and then just like With the court? Or a thousand percent.

Yeah. Never acted on. Never tried to fix it. Yeah. Just kind of like tamed him down. Just like, yeah, all right.

Well, don't fucking piss this guy off. Yeah, yeah, everybody in the city knew not to piss Jason off. That's so. And he was, he was kind of like that guy.

So I was like, I could just live happy, go lucky because everybody was scared of my fucking brother. Yeah. Throughout the city. So I'm like, all the other freshmen are getting picked on in high school. I'm kind of just walking the halls.

Like I've been there for years. Yeah. And, uh, kind of how it was throughout, I don't know, even going to college and then into the league. It was kind of being able to just bounce off of him because he's been at every single step already before me. But he definitely, he was the ultimate competitor and just a fucking madman, dude.

Was it always the type of situation to where whether you beat him at anything, something as small as a video game in Madden to where he's just fuming because younger brother beat him? I'm trying to think back at times. Probably wouldn't even do. It wouldn't even, dude. It wouldn't even get to the end of the game. He would feel like it was about to, like, I was about to win. And he would just flare up and just fucking, yeah.

Turn the game off. I knew when to push the buttons and when not to push the buttons. I was just going to try on air. You get your ass beat. You don't want to get your ass beat again. Yeah. So it's like, you know where to take it and where to, like, reel it back. But we really didn't get into that many fights because I knew how crazy he was

and I wasn't going to go down that road. And you're just thinking like, oh, this ain't word like. Dude, like, hey, chill out, man. it's not worth it today. Yeah, exactly. When you, so you guys are together, your whole lives, you go to college together. And then you guys obviously get drafted at different teams. Was that tough for you to not be with your brother?

Because it seemed like you guys were attached at the head. It was weird. It was weird because they took Ertz. Yeah. So they took Erds. It was a very, I want to say Zach St. Player, but we're very similar in terms of our skill sets. You know what I mean?

So it was kind of like a slap in the face from the Eagles. And I was like, damn, these motherfuckers took my fucking dream to play with my brother in the league, man. That would have been insane. Especially when it was right there. And Andy Reed called. I was like, all right, I'm good. I'm good. Yeah, Andy's going to dial some shit up for me.

Dial it up for real. And he's dialed. Dude, he's switched the entire position. I mean, my job in the offense isn't just to be a typical tight end. You know what I mean? He evolved this thing. It was when I first got there, like my first probably five, six years. I was a inline blocker, like doing a lot of the full, like, wide tight end stuff

in like base game plans and stuff. And now it's just evolved into a completely different offense because of a guy and then Patrick Mahomes, but also because I can do more stuff and kind of affect the perimeter a little bit different. How good of a feeling was it when you realized, I don't only got to block anymore. I can kind of go out there and, you know,

believe it. Cross Sift once in a while. Blocking does get you open on specific, like situations, specific place and stuff like that. So, I mean, I like to get in there, you know what I mean?

Get dirty a little bit. A little bit. A little bit. Yeah. Just say face. Yeah, you know what I mean? Show up.

I am actually. Everybody honest. Yeah. You know what I mean. But it's, Yeah, you know what I mean? You got to stick your face in the fan when needed. But it's definitely fun getting out there and getting a lot more catches than just banging heads all day.

Beating big bro in the Super Bowl. That was weird, man. It was weird. It was a weird feeling. It was like getting the second one was like, that's me. This is me. Yeah. I am him.

I do this. This is what I fucking do. And then you see your brother and you're like, fuck, I just took that opportunity away from him. It's like you know how he feels and it's just like, man, because I lost a fucking Super Bowl and that shit sucks. Going into the Tampa Bay Super Bowl, man, that shit was fucking the worst feeling ever. Levante David. Feeling, dude, he fucking, it's a dog right there. It is a dog.

He is a dog. He's just in there. Yeah, him in there. He's dumb to love in there. Boy some. Levante David. That motherfucker is nice too. Yeah, they're stuck.

Yeah. Yeah, so I don't know. I just knew how I had a, like, I could feel how he felt. all in the same like realm. I'm seeing the guys that I just did it with. And like, yeah. And then it's like, oh. And because there's almost, oh, damn, man.

Just my brother just got. Yeah. And it was almost last year. Yeah. I think he would have to, you don't have to tell. I think he was going to retire if you won. He can come on the bus and we'll go. He can speak for himself.

I don't, I don't talk to him a lot, but I think that $14 million is hard to pass up. So. Very true. Whether or not or however much fucking money he's making right now for the Eagles, I think that'd be a hard contract to pass up. And you already know, man, this fucking game, when we're all setting done, we're all going to miss this shit, man.

Yeah, you miss it. But there's like when you're writing your own story in your head of how to go out, like what a way to go like with a confetti flying, you're on top, you're holding Lombardy, like, this is it. I'm done. Yeah. I could see it. Andrew Whitworth did it.

He sure did. It was beautiful. 18 in her or something. He was just nuts. He was, he was long in the tooth. As long as it could get. But he was so effective. Yeah.

Incredibly effective. Just so big. And when you taste that you kind of see the side, especially in the podcast game, when it can be successful and you can see what it does, you're just like, oh, man, I don't have to get in there. I don't have to get in there a bang like this. Definitely. And go through that, you know, weekly stress of watching, you know, the film and everything

else. Obviously, it's a lot different when you're losing versus when you're winning. When you're winning, it's like just the greatest mix of all time. He's had a few of those losing years to where he was. looking at father time like dude this might be it. Yeah like I might just hang this thing out. Things hurt more when you lose. When you lose a few games you even experience losing

a whole lot in last few years but it sucks. I don't know if you remember. Fuck losing. Yeah it's terrible. What has been the worst year you've had? My second year in the league I think we were 10 and 6. Oh my God, bro. No, no, no, no, we were 9 and 7. Even that's pissing me off.

The playoffs. You missed the play. Yeah, but it's above 500. You want to hear? What was your worst year in the league? Three and 13? Wow. Two and 14. My rookie year.

Oh, shit. Two and 14. I literally called a guy that played Michael Ruse, and I was like, how the fuck do you do this for 10 years? He's like, ah, you'll figure it out. Yeah. It was like two and 14. That's what you're young. We won the first one against Kansas City.

Like 24 to 10. We kind of steamrolled y'all, actually. I'm not going to lie. When was this? When was this? 2014. Yeah, dude. Yeah.

Yeah. We went in there. Dude, Bernard Pollard fucking rocked me that game. My goodness. I have, no one explained to me the National Anthem and Chiefs Kingdom. So I was just, you know, green. It hit you, yeah. And they did it, and it literally like a gunshot went off. I got nervous.

It freaked me out for a second. Where am I? The Chiefs got some garbage time in that game, too. A couple nice blocks. That was my first game ever, man. We won that one, and we didn't win again until like week seven against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Damn. Tough, dude.

Tough living. And your worst season is a winning season. That pisses me off. Yeah, no. Yeah. But you don't even know what failure is, do you? That season was weird, though. Cincinnati.

Were you as good at Cincinnati? Yeah, we won the Big East every year I was there. Fucking this, dude. Is that even exciting? The Big East? Yeah. The first two years for sure, because that was, like, guaranteed you're in one of the, like, top bowls. So we went to Orange Bowl and Sugar Bowl.

And they did. How'd you guys doing those bowls? I don't know. I'm genuinely asking. The orange bowl year was Tyrod Taylor, and he walked all over us and just scored Tuddies all day. And then the next year was Tim Tebow's last collegiate football game. So. You guys had to play Florida. Yeah. And Brian Kelly, our coach that had an undefeated season the entire year, ended up jumping ship to Notre Dame right before we played in the biggest game in the university's history.

It was kind of his MO, right? That's kind of his deal. Yeah. That's his thing. Notre Dame's going to playoffs. Yep. How about that Sugar Bowl, though?

How much fun is that in New Orleans? It was so much fucking fun. So much fucking fun. I got kicked out of college because of it. That's awesome. I partied a little too much down there. Got hit with the drug test. And from that point on,

I realized I got to tighten the fuck up. Got to tighten it up. Yeah, I got to tighten it up. Some of those things that happen to you, though, you're like kind of grateful. No, for sure. Because you don't know where you'd be now. What it did was it really,

it kicked me into the tight end room. I was still playing QB then. Oh, really? Yeah. It was like, all right, you can come walk on the team, but we don't need a quarterback. You can just be an athlete on scout team for a year and we'll figure it out. Just like, all right. What was your spot in Bourbon Street?

Where were the boys at? Dude, I wasn't even 21. So I was running, I was running, yeah, I was running around on Bourbon just trying to get those hurricanes. Yeah. A little green fuck, yeah. Those are grenades. You were a for the grenade. You were a four local guy.

1,000. No question. You know, like, him... One... They were like, hey, these are giving people heart attacks. Yeah, scout team quarterback. All he would do is, like, whether he'd go to nightclass or not, he'd have a four-locan just talk about how he torches the defense of the day.

You know that he's playing... You know, that's how to show up and score on these days. He's going to many chances. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, put it in, man. What's, uh, what was your, like, feeling going into the game against Philly? Obviously, with the emotions of your brother compared to Tampa Bay. I know you've been in other ones.

You've all the one of those Super Bowls, but those two are winning a loss. Yeah, I would say, uh, the Eagles one was so special because it was just, you know, nobody gets to put their family on the front page of the newspaper, like in everybody's living room. Like we were able to put our family where we're from, the city we're from, and, you know,

a lot of people that we were, you know, close to growing up all got the opportunity to kind of speak on our behalf back in Cleveland. So it was just cool to see how everybody appreciated our upbringing, our childhood, our family, our brother dynamic. So that was,

It was so unique. And I honestly remember that going into the game more than anything, being able to see my mom on Good Morning America. My dad's doing freaking podcast interviews left and right with some of his favorite guys. And I'm just sitting here like, man, this shit's really fucking going down. Yeah. Like my family is everywhere right now. Really calling it the Kelsey Bowl.

The Kelsey Bowl. It was a wild feeling. So outside of just getting scraped in the Tampa Bay Super Bowl and winning the Eagle Super Bowl, The Eagles Super Bowl pre everything was just so much fucking fun. It seems so revolved around you and your brother. From the outside, look. It got a little awkward. It got a little awkward.

Yeah. Like all the way up into like the coin toss, like if you weren't at the game, you didn't even see it. But my mom was like on the Jumbotron doing a which brother is which right before the coin toss. So we're like sitting there standing like during a commercial break, staring at each other. Eagles players, Chiefs players. Everybody's like waiting for this moment. And mom is on the Jumbotron doing a. Travis and Jason like, I'm just like, this is...

That's nuts. Enough is enough. Can we just play football? Yeah. Oh, man. This is way too much about us. Was there a level of jealousy? Was there a level of jealousy from your dad? Because it seemed like your mom really got a lot of things. I mean, yeah, everybody loves a good mom.

I don't think there was any jealousy, but my dad was kind of like, you know? She seemed like she was everywhere. He was, he was happy for it was in the Hall of Fame. He was happy. Yeah, exactly. See, stuff like that. But everybody, you know, has that, that love.

for their mother and my dad my dad gets it he understands it all but and you can't tell him anything man his two boys made it to the league and we're in the situation we were last year so he was doing car wheels and back lips do it all anyways

bro they gotta be so fucking proud of you guys dude I think I because honestly and you you probably know how it is now too like with kids like one day when you have them too like you can only imagine what it's like to see their kids grow up

and go you know you earned a scholarship I assumed it's Cincinnati, both on scholarship. Rearned it. Rearned it. Yeah, re-earned it. Yeah, re-earned it. You know, you see them grow up.

You see them have their lows and highs. They get drafted to the NFL. They end up playing against each other in the Super Bowl. Both Hall of Fame guys in their respective positions. Yeah, bro. You know he walks into every barbecue or any type of showing. You know eyes are on him. He knows eyes are on him.

He doesn't want to know about my boys. That guy's genetic? Yeah. Don't fuck with his genetics. And you know, too, since the dad's not out there doing it, like, you kind of get to watch them do it. Like, that's your moment to shine. Yeah. Get in front of your boys.

Get in front of your friends. Like group chats spicing up. Right. He walks over to the grill. He's a couple pointers on the hamburgers. Even if they're not even good pointers, like, fuck, we probably should do that. He was probably missing to this.

He's got the ultimate dad. Yeah. They're probably telling him, congratulations after the Super Bowl. And he's probably leaning more towards like Jason and talking about the shortcomings. Like, yeah, but it was also hard, but also thinking like, yeah. We got another one.

Yeah, we got another one. Yeah, we got another one. No matter what, when they both got the big this Super Bowl, that's like, got another one. Do you get him like a replica of the ring? Like a little replica Lombardi trophy? Yeah, I got him a Lombardi from the first one. I still got to get these replicas on the way for the second one.

But yeah, I actually got him one for our Super Bowl and my brothers. Because my brother does, my brother's not in the shit like that. He doesn't like the memorabilia. I'll make sure he holds it down to the house. Yeah, we'll just, yeah, shit like that. He doesn't like to play dress up for travel. Exactly. You know, even though he's wearing like.

He's dressing up. He's dressing up. That rain is crazy. You hear that? Yeah, no, I do hear that. nuts. It's been like off and on too. Like someone's just flipping a switch.

Right. That shit is just... That is Nashville for you. That is Nashville, dude. I had something I was thinking. It's gonna put a wrinkle in tight and tight in you, possibly. I hope not, man. Last year is hot as fuck.

Yeah, I was dry heaving on the field. Yeah. It was not a good showing. You hear that real loud, JP? All right, cool. Enough about football, dude. Let's talk about S&L. S&L, man.

grew up a massive S&L fan. One of my bucket list things to do is to host S&L one day. Dude, I can see you fucking killing it. Well, I appreciate that. That's very kind of you. You would do fucking good. Thank you. But you did amazing. Thank you, man. I thought your monologue in the beginning was incredible.

You integrating your brother into it. Was your brother when he sat there was where they told, like, hey, don't make a face or nothing? Or was that him? No, he was he knew it was coming because we did a few of the rehearsals and he saw it. But he was, um, he knew he was like, I'm going to make sure that you know that I'm not enjoying this.

Dude, it was, like, we're basically thrown in his face that he just lost the Super Bowl. And it was like, hey, man, you cool with you, you cool with us? Like, making fun of this thing? You got to be okay with it. It's S&L. You got a chirp. Look, that is so funny. Just said that.

A little bro on top once again. When you're standing behind that door and they're like, all right, 15 seconds till you're out. And then you hear the music start playing. Dude, goosebumps. Do you're your legs like jello? It was like, dude, when I tell you, so. you rehearse the monologue like three or four times before you actually do it.

There's an entire dress rehearsal where there's a live crowd, like, people like come in. And that's the one where you do every single skip, start to finish. No time frame condenses anything. So it's like that's the one where you're really like getting like your bearings and everything. Yeah. Going out of that one, like my eyes are watering. Like I'm like getting like real emotional like goosebumps everywhere, legs getting kind of weak. And you open the door.

all of a sudden, you're just like, you got to turn it on, man. You got to turn on. Get out of your fucking head. Oh, man. And it's like you're going down the steps. It's like, don't fall. Number one, don't fall down the steps. Makes you hit your mark where you're supposed to stand. There's probably a piece of tape. That's an axe. You got to stand on. You can't miss it.

Can't miss it. Get too far forward. Camera's out of focus. Fuck. Damn, dude. It's a machine from start to finish. You get there Monday night all the way till Saturday night or Sunday morning, man. They have that thing scheduled out and laid out. It's just one of the coolest experience.

experiences, man. Go ahead, buddy. I was going to say, was that your favorite thing to do post Super Bowl? 100%. 100%. It was the coolest. Yeah. The coolest shit ever, man.

And when that monologue came out and it was going viral, making its rounds, it was like, oh, the boy absolutely murdered it. Yeah, because something else was going on that day. It might have been like a big UFC fight. Everyone was real focused on a UFC fight. Something. Yeah, yeah. I think a McAfee tweeted out like, hey, everyone's watching the UFC fight.

You need to see Travis Kelsey on. Yeah, yeah. Just crush it. Yeah. How many live skits does you do compared to? like filmed skits. So we did three pre-recorded skits. Got my guy Creed Humphrey in on one of them.

Nice. He ended up, that one didn't air, though, so it just got thrown on social media afterwards. Tough. On YouTube afterwards. I was hurting for my guy, man. He made it. He had like his like Super Bowl parade back in Oklahoma City like the next day. And I was like, dude, can I fly you out here and get you back?

Please. Yeah. I was like, dude, if I can get back for the parade, I'm in. I'm just like, yes. And then it didn't even air. And I was like, fuck. Hey, don't worry, brother. I'm about to drop it on the ground.

Let's collab. That's exactly what it was. So we did three pre-recorded and then I think there ended up being like eight or nine like live skits that we ended up doing. But the last like probably three of them are all condensed so much because of like timing-wise that it's like it's, I don't want to say it's a whole new script. But you're literally, you have to read the cards. Like you can't just like go off a memory because they'll take a. an entire segment in a conversation that you're thinking you're like

supposed to say, but if you're not reading the card you won't know. So there's no ad lipping going on at all? During the week or you're like, hey, what if I say this instead? No, fuck, no, I wasn't saying any of that. Are you sure? I was so like He doesn't have like the Will Ferrell Charlie Trimmy. Yeah, but there's also, I'm sure they wrote some stuff for you. And you're like,

I would never say this. You know, like if you're doing a skit. Like the monologue for sure. I knew the monologue was kind of like that was like going to be mine, but everything else, like the writers have been like working on these skits and like these segments for like weeks on weeks on weeks and like finally getting them right to this moment and then I'm going to come in like, like, well, what about this? Yeah.

It's like, I don't even have any like real like writing ability. You know what I mean? I'm just trying to be funny and like creative. And so I kind of reeled it back. I caught myself asking him about one thing, but I reeled it back and was just like, you know what? Like you're kind of a writer's shot in my writing. No, I think I kind of like it like this though. And I'm just like, don't say it again.

Don't ask again. You've got it. You're the professionals. When did they reach out to you about doing SNL? How many weeks in advance? So actually, Heidi Gardner, who's been on SNL for years and years, absolutely kills it. She's a Kansas City girl and is a huge Chiefs fan. You go to her, like, what is it?

Her dressing room and everything in there is Chiefs galore. She had like a little barbecue, like pre-game party in her room. Had nothing but barbecue in there for Casey, Vaugh. She had been kind of like pitching the idea to get I think it was initially Mahomes after the first Super Bowl But then kind of like As I started to like show my personality more She started to kind of like throw my name in there

And when we won the Super Bowl I was fortunate enough to just kind of get the call No brainer The whole super rule was involved around them Yeah, they're gonna be like well see this guy Favorite you brought a barbecue What's your favorite barbecue spot in Kansas City? And I don't like to get into politics dog

I really don't you're gonna get me fucking killed out there. I'm just saying because I went to a couple. I love Oklahoma Joe's man. I love that gas station vibe. Joe's baby. And it's a good vibe. You know what I mean? Like you feel like it's like authentic and real and I the gas station Joe's Kansas City

Joe's is always, but formerly Oklahoma Joe's now Kansas City Joe's. I would say jack sack you can't go wrong with. That's kind of like the white cloth like barbecue. It's like the nice restaurant. Still great spread. You can get fucking anything on the menu of slaps. Q39.

is more of like your like sports bar barbecue, but it's a little bit cleaner. Still, you ever go to Q39 get the burnt ends? You guys know what burnt ends are? Yeah. They're like fucking protein candies, man. Things are fucking,

you could just keep popping those things in, dude. I mess with burn ends now. Yeah, you can, you can fuck some shit up in Kansas City. I love how you're giving all the big spots and love. It's Arthur Bryant's. I mean,

you name it, man. Is there a sleeper hole in the wall that people don't know about? Only locals know about? Um, No, not really. At least nothing that I've like come across yet. But you can't go wrong, man.

If you're fucking a barbecue, man, fuck you. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah, I'm with that. I can get behind that. You know what I mean? Let's talk about 2019, the AFC championship. Should we talk about the AFC championship or should we talk about or should we start

where you guys beat them when you guys were two and four going on the buy week? And that's when you guys basically got back on track to make that push to the AFC championship. Well, I mean, we did do that. How did that feel when we beat your ass? Dude. I honestly, in the regular season. A couple times we've played in Tennessee, we've gotten scraped. It is so weird how Tennessee always plays Kansas City well.

Even this past year. Dude, it was with Malik Willis. Yeah. Dude, Braves, man. Northeast Ohio guy, man. He's just a ball player. He's just a ball player. He's a good ball coach, huh?

Yeah. No, you could tell, man. You could tell he's fun to play for him. He was the pro bowl coach like two years ago. Yeah. So it was fun catching up with him and just kind of seeing how he vibes. I would um... How many cigarettes did you see him put down?

I mean, just golfing with a mountain Tahoe one round. Yeah. I think I saw a good two packs. Oh, buddy. Yo, Ray. A light day? Is that a light day? I don't know. I always would walk by. His truck used to be right where the entrance was to the facility and I'd always see a pack of Marblos, like sitting right at a center console. But he would, he hit that fucking jewel like it owed him money.

Like he was on that thing all of the time. He punished that motherfucker. He did. He always put. a dip in. That man lives for some nicotine now. All right, man. Yeah, he's like that. When I was doing, when I was doing that skit that last year, I was trying to bring the jewel in and he wouldn't let me.

Really? Yeah. He's like, no, you can't. He's like, you're here. I let you in the building. You're not doing the gym. That is a brave thing, though. He likes the big dog cats.

Yeah. He does like the big dog cats. This man, you got to keep order. He got to keep everything. He loves, he loves the body bag well, dude. It's hard. It's hard to watch sometimes. Yeah.

Yeah. I'll find my moment one day. Yeah, but he's a good dude, man. But yeah, I don't know. The crazy thing is the parallel between the regular season game in 2019 and the AFC championship. Like, you guys were up 10-0 after the first quarter. And then the AFC championship, we were up 10-0.

And the flip. It all switched when Pat Mahomes did that two-minute drill. Dude, the run-reple ran the same 40. How was he so elusive? I'm going to know he's just a gamer, man. He's just a gamer. Nobody likes to give him credit for the wheels, man. He finds a way to, you know, just get,

first downs, but that one, that was, I mean, that had to be the best run of his life. That was nuts. Right before half. AFC championship. I was like, bro, we're going to win this. A little spin. That was more on the defense. I thought we're,

the Tennessee tennis team was going into the end zone, too. That thing was like flopping around. I was like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. And the tackling, though. Patty Mahones, baby. I was watching. Yeah. That was when I was on the Raiders.

I was watching, but the tackling was horrendous on that play. I think all the boys know that that that is the truth. It was the, when's the last time you tried to tackle. Maddie Mahomes. It's been a minute. I had to get my legs in on the microphone these days. He's got them slender hips, man.

He slides around on guys, man. Honestly, I don't think I've ever gotten to actually get an opportunity. You know, I'm more like going one-on-one against Ben Neiman out there in the trenches on fourth down. God needed me more for fourth down in my back half my career. Yeah. The most important down. Yeah, I never got a real opportunity. It was more like last time I played against the Chiefs was Alex Smith.

So it wasn't, I want to say that was Alex's last year when we came there to Arrowhead when Washington came. But other than that, like my only moments against the Chiefs, the first year I came when there was the AFC championship year with you guys. You guys were one of our first games. So I was big chilling and more like, man, we're getting our fucking ass-wift out of here. Yeah. Because you're not like ingrained in the culture to, you know, I want to say one moment. Patrick's, you know, running around just throws it up to you. You catch it over Joyner, the boy Joyner at the time.

And then the second time around was like the first one. week back and I'm out there fucking scraping your guys's logo and we just get wrecked. That was, you know that game. You know the game I'm talking about. I do remember that one. Everybody's like, look at Will leading him out there to the logo. We just get whooped like 50 something to 14. It was, for real.

9-1. Um, um, fuck. I'm trying to blink. For what team? He played on the Jaguars. Oh, Yonik and Doc. Yeah, yeah, Yonik. Yeah.

He's a dog. He was a great. First time I played Yonik. He's a dog. He told me he was going to shoot me after the game. Doug, I'll tell you. That's pretty aggressive. Yonik is like...

So that's what the day is going to be like. This is what we're doing. He was a rookie, too. I was like, I kind of got some shit to him. Yonick is a dog. Like, even in Walthor's like, he's somebody that's like about his business on the field. And like, yeah, he like led us out there to the middle.

Say, oh, we're going out here in the middle? Hell yeah, boys fucking start. Scraping on the logo. Let us out there. The middle. Man. Arrowhead is Arrowhead the Lada Stadium? 1000%.

In the NFL, louder than Seattle? Yeah. Yeah. I've never played in Seattle when it's like rock and rocking, though. Like playoffs? I haven't played out there during playoffs, so it's like, I don't know. You play a regular season game.

Arrowhead when it's when it's rocking during playoffs, man, it gets fucking rowdy in there. It is nuts. You can't hear a thing. The guys will be from me to you and I won't be able to hear a word. They're screaming at the top of their lungs.

You can't hear a damn thing. It gets so damn cold there too, dude. It is crazy. We've been pretty fortunate these past couple years, man. I don't know what the fuck's going on with global warming, but we didn't have a single, we didn't have a single snow game

or a game under like 10 degrees. last year. We had one game. We usually have one or two. So you believe in global warming, just a I'm not even sure what I just, before we really get into this. Yeah. I know, right? I'm even sure if global warm is the reason why it didn't snow. I'm just kind of connecting dots here. Sounds smart. Spitz on. And in the locker room connecting it all. If I reiterate, I don't know what the fuck global warming is doing, but yeah. You guys saw this tweet about global warming? I think that shit's real. You know, my homes. Obviously, we got to talk about my homes a little bit. Would you, What was your impression to him when he first got to the Chiefs?

Tyreek Hill talks and he thought he was garbage. Tyreeks funny as hell, man. I will say this. He was not like a polished QB, but when the ball snapped, I mean, he's Patty Mahomes. He just has natural from the get-go. I remember watching him on scout team. I was just like, this is what this guy is capable of doing? Like, he would literally run out right to the like 60 yards,

on the run opposite, like, opposite end zone corner. And it's just like, what the fuck was that? And everybody's just like, oh, a scout team, he just runs back to the huddle. I'm like, bro, did you guys just see this? Yeah. Like, what the fuck? This guy's out here doing this shit just nonchalant. Like, if he can somehow find a way to do this in a game, which he then showed that he

could do, is just like, it's unbelievable. But the first, like, impression you get from him is just a relatable dude. He just loves ball. He just likes to be around the guys and shoot the shit, be in the locker room. kicking it. And then competitive-wise, he's just always playing something, doing something, competing at something. Seems like we're going to see a lot of shit talking with this new Netflix series that's

coming out. You're definitely going to catch it. You're definitely going to catch it a little bit. I think... What do you think people learn watching the Netflix style? He and Crosby get after it, dude. Him and Crosby? Max?

Dude. Get after it. Like, we'll face butt each other, head buddy, like, punch each other at the bottom of piles. Like, they get after it. Really? Yes. You gotta love that. You gotta love that.

Do you see somebody punch your quarterback? Oh, for sure, yeah. You'd hope so. For sure. Yeah, especially our enforcer. Who's your enforcer? Tray Smith, baby. Ray Smith is the enforcer, huh?

He's a dog. He's a dog. He said balls, baby. He's a dog like that. Dude, just a fucking beast. Are you blocking Max one-on-one? Um, I have. On the backside of, like, a play or something like that.

I think, uh, I've got him like once or twice in pass pro just because he, like, he's like, he's like what the fuck's going on. You know what I mean? And like balls out. Yes. I won that one. Do you let him know? Like he's still trying to piece it together.

Like why is this guy standing here? You know? And I'm just like... Is the screen coming? Yeah, that's what it really is. Because I hit him with a few screens before. But yeah, no, he's a fucking beast, man. Do you let him know?

Do I let him know? When you get him? Um, not really. I don't like to make my tackles lives harder. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. I won't talk too much shit with him. But we'll have some fun out there.

What was crazy about the last Raiders, game that we played in Arrowhead is that you could tell the defensive coordinator did not want me to like enjoy my day at all. I was getting butch, double teamed at the line of scrimmage. Farrell and Crosby were just like punching me in the fucking face coming off the ball. And it was, I had a blast doing it because it was like it added another element to the game of like another challenge to like try and like they'll get open. Yeah, they're trying to here we go, baby. Yeah. Where he's trying, baby.

This is it. From all wrong. And then I had four touchdowns. off of like... 25 yards? Yeah, it was like one of the most buns stas of ever. It was like,

I think Jerome Bettis is the only one to have like a more buns like stat line which is three touchdowns off of like two yards. No shit. Yeah, there's like five carries too. But I just remember like I actually went outside the numbers one time. Farrell comes outside the numbers right over top of me.

D.B. behind him, safety, staring at me from over here. I'm just like, well, I think the ball's probably going somewhere else. Yeah. Let's just have some fun. on the line of scrimmage here. I get off the line of scrimmage,

slapped in the face, fall on the ground. I'm like rolling on the ground. I get up, get hit down again, and look back. There was a flag and everything, but ball definitely went the other way.

But it was just like that, I hadn't been in a game like that and forever, man. It was just fucking blast. Yeah. How's it feel to know that teams are legit wanting you to not play? Well,

I think we played in a wild card game. I think it was like 2016 or 17. Yeah. You got knocked out of the game. Knocked out. knocked out. Legitimately, the defense was like, fuck, yeah, we got to know.

Like, they were like, didn't want you to be hurt, but they're like, thank God he's not playing. Yeah, no, they've, I took a fucking right, the Mike Tyson right hook right to the side of the dome.

And, you were a slump. I was, yeah, the whole, like, I think it was left side of my body. Yeah, the whole left side of my body, I couldn't even, like, move for a good, like, 10 seconds. Yeah. And I was like, I've never been hit like this in my fucking life.

No way. Holy shit. And then I, I got, like, my bearings back in the, in the actual like locker room and everything because it went right into half and I thought I was going to be good to come back out and the doc told me no and then you guys you guys ended up getting us. Are you honest?

You were, no, my first year was eight. The Ryan suck up. Ooh, you did. Ryan suck up like 50- you'll go for the win.

I don't think we played them in the regular season. It's only like that next year. We need to hit this tier talk. We got a tier talk. I think do we have the time for tier talk? We can we can run over just a little bit. We can get over it. Yeah.

Okay. We can run over. Let's do the last question and then we'll hit the tier talk. Do you have a last question? I can figure one out by the time you're done. But if we do the tier talk, it gives you time to think about the twisted question. All right. Let's do the tier talk.

We have to run it. The tier talk. Let's do it. Top three quarterback tied in combinations of all time. And you can include yourself and Patrick Mahomes. See, I already made this mistake. I've included myself on my own Mount Rushmore. Got kind of.

Got died. Yeah, read all the comments. Yeah, so I got to get out of there. I'm going to take myself out of it. Grunk and Tom Brady, fucking two, the best to do it. Number one. Number one. Philip Rivers, Antonio Gates.

Fuck, those guys were good. Have you guys ever, have you guys actually ever diagnosed Philip Rivers and Antonio Gates? Not like when you said actually diagnosed. That's where I was like, no, not actually diagnosed. They were unfucking stoppable. Look how many touchdowns Antonio Gates has. It is fucking ridiculous. I think he has the most touchdowns ever as a tie-down.

So you're putting them too below? Yes. Well, I mean, the rings, man. That's true. Yeah, that's fair. They both went to another team, got a ring. It burns, but it happened. Who else?

Who's my third? Who's my third? Damn, I mean, I guess I got to go Elway and Shannon Sharp. I mean, I'm trying to think of who else was like... Yeah, Manning and Clark. Oh, that was a good. one, but there's, I'm still going.

Clark is too white. Yeah. I fucking love his mentality, though, man. No doubt. Last year, I did in you. Are you kidding me? Yeah, this dude's like, we're not that. We need to be that.

Yeah, yeah. Dude, the guys. He just looks like a regular guy and it's like, yo, he fucking just turns it on. Got to his kid out there watching. The Clarks were there. The Clarks were fucking there, dude. Do you want to go? Do you want to do your top three?

No, I just wanted to hear his. All right. My top three, you know, it's not going to be much. different. I think I would just piggyback off of the tight end. And I would put Mahomes and Kelsey at number one. Even though I've said a lot of choiceful words about your team and your organization, to which I know you probably motivated you guys to win the Super Bowl this past year. I mean, it was, I heard it, for sure. There was in locker room. There were rumblings in locker room. I heard it. I was like,

fuck you too, Will. Damn. Fucking guy, man. Bulletin board material. You probably hung it right up in the locker. Fuck you, Travis Kelsey, the chiefs are not making the playoffs this year. Just heard it in my head every day. I went out for practice. Yeah, and your fucking fan base never stops letting me know about that hot take, which, you know, respect to them. It will be a rivalry that is now created.

A rivalry between Wilcofton and Chiefs Kingdom. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. There's going to be some fans that are going to be so mad that Travis even came on this podcast. They're going to be a will such a scumbag. But anyway, you know, we got that off. I mean, top three? Yeah. I would go three, Delaney Walker, Marcus Mariotto.

Two. Two, I would go George Kittle and any backup quarterback ever. Which one? Hold on where? Where we were? Siddle and any backup quarterback of all the time ever. Dude. He just figures out of the way to make it happen.

No, I'm with you. And then one, probably you two. Probably you and Pat. I'll take it, baby. Let's go. I like the Foutson. Foutson. Foulton.

Fountain. Don't say that. Don't say that on Mike. Yeah, yeah. Overrunk. Brady. The passer rating. You throw that one in there for me.

Okay, twisted question. It's time for the twisted question. Keep it twisted with smooth, refreshing twisted tea. The hard I see that's perfect for parties, a bar with your buddies or game day. Grab and twisted two day. My twisted question of the day is, what kind of tipper are you? Listen, man, you got to be a good tipper. I'm over 20%.

Are you? Yes. Are you sure? 100%. There is some literature out there. That I'm not a good tip. tipper? It's you're frugal about tipping. It's your frugal about tipping. It might have been a reason you were dumped in the past. Oh shit. That's good shit. Um, that was a, that was a fun lead-in.

No, no, that's, that was all fucking blatant lies. Never coming on the show again. That was all blatant lies. Was it? Blatin lies. You're willing to stay in Tinto's ground like this is where we are not intimidated by your guys's takes. Dude, no. There's no way that that was fucking real about my past relationship. So if you get, you go to a steakhouse. Yes. Let's say the bill's $1,500. Yes. Great service. Drinks came out fast. The Appies were quick. What do you tip in? $1,500. I'm probably going close to $500. 500? Yeah. Nice. Respect that. Especially, just good food, good service. I'm here for it. Hypothetical situation, you're at a coffee shop.

Okay. You go to insert your card. They say, okay, sir, just two questions right here and they flip the tablet on you. It says three, four, or five. Your coffee was $4.50. What are you pressing? Or there's a custom button on there too. Yeah, there's a custom button on there too, but no one does a custom button. No. I have in the past. If it's, yeah, I'm probably going right in the middle. Right in the middle?

I'd feel weird tipping more than what I paid for the coffee. Mm-hmm. So I'd probably go right in the middle. I'll go through it. $4.5. What if it's, what if it's March of 2020? Come again? March of 2020.

Middle of COVID. We're trying to help small businesses here. They flip the tablet on you. Three, four, or five. Five. That's where it all came about. That's where all that tipping came about. You actually put me on game with that.

That strategy came about. I will say this, though, man. I heard bad rumors about Scotty Pippin, not tipping. And you don't want to get that fucking rap, man. That's not a good rap. Taylor literally will look at the bill and then see what the tax was and remove the tax out of the equation and do the 20 right off of how much the food was.

That's a good man right there. You're good at math. You're good at math. No, I'm not good at math. I do. I'm a heavy tipper. But as Will's pointed out, it's more for my own good karma. I am looking out for me when I send a fat tip out there. I'm thinking to myself in the universe, this is going to come back to me tenfold.

Nice, man. Hell yeah. That is my idea. I was going to lean into like, this is how frugal Taylor is. He will take out the taxing on it. Yeah, yeah, no, I got it. We all, I think we almost all got there. Almost.

It seems like I was a little behind. I was, went way over my head. Yeah, yeah. What's one? All right, last question. Last question. What's one thing you want to do from an entertainment perspective

when all football's over? We want to act in movies. I want to jump in the acting world, man. Scripted comedies, man. Keep me right there. Scripted comedies, man. You want to be in a comedy game. Yeah, that's it, man.

That's the only thing I have fun with, man. I don't think I could ever, like, embody, like, an entire, like, character in, like, I don't know, like an action movie or a drama movie. Definitely not drama. Action. Who knows, man? maybe I do some bicep curls or something, get an actual, like, mean, look to me.

Yeah. I mean, Burt Kreiser just had an action movie come out. You could probably do. But Bert was fully being himself. Fully. You know what I? Like, I feel like you almost have to do an action movie just so you can get the cameo and do just some macho type shit. Some cliche line at the end.

Yeah. I don't know what that line is. I had nothing for you, but something that's, you know, a John Wick type movie where you say 45 words. I'm in. I'm in. I'm in for a cameo. Yeah. make comedy is great again.

We do need some good comedies back in our lives because I don't think they've been, I don't think they've been well since, what, the Will Ferrell days? Yeah, Will Ferrell's coming back, though. Is it? We got to let, we like Traverseo. Okay, fine.

Time to. Brother, it's been great having you on. We'll see you at the, at Tide in you tomorrow. Obviously, I'm sure we'll get some, the old rivalry back. You can call on, maybe. The matchup, everybody misses.

You're going to throw some cleats on? I might. You really said that, that uncalled for Patrick Mahomes thing. earlier and I've been thinking about it ever since. But yeah, I might have to throw the cleats on. What was the Pets of Mawin thing? You ever tried tackling Patrick Mahoney?

No, I said when was the last time you tried? Because he acted like it was easy to tackle him on that one run. Yeah, for there'd be a last time. He was hitting everybody with spin moves, man. If that wants to see me, it'll be on fast down. If that wants to see me, it'll be on fourth down. Yeah. Hey, but thanks a lot, bro.

We appreciate it. You guys are legends, mate. Sorry for running over. And congrats on your success with New Heights. We're really happy for you. Seriously. Appreciate you guys, baby, baby. You know he's also doing, I know this, we can even cut this part out,

but they're also doing a beer thing, I think, next week. Yeah, you guys got, like, actual, like, guys, like players that come in and, like. Dean Blandino is our official referee, so he's going to come in. You guys were invited to that, but I think, yes, Jason, you have a foundation. Yeah, it's a foundation thing, and then you had something come up, or maybe you didn't, but does Jason didn't? No, I just had to go to Jason's foundation. You're doing that where you're, like, you're bringing people in, and they're almost doing, like,

we're doing a show and everything. It's like we're calling it the beer bowl, not necessarily beer Olympics. I'm saying? Yeah. We got to get you guys in the beer Olympics next year. It was a big miss. I was so fucking pumped when you guys hit me about it. I was, I was upset.

Then Travis made the decision. Or Jason made the decision for you. Fair enough. Yeah, we'll get you on next year, though. Well, thank you everybody for watching. Big hugs, tiny kisses. Subscribe. You guys are guys.
