Bussin' With The Boys - Travis Kelce Talks NFL Retirement, Chiefs Super Bowl Loss + Bussin’ With The Boys Meets Taylor Swift

Episode Date: July 1, 2025

Recorded: June 30, 2025 In this episode of Bussin’ With The Boys, Will Compton and Taylor Lewan dive into an epic conversation with three-time Super Bowl champion, legendary Chiefs tight end, and co-host of the New Heights podcast, Travis Kelce. Will kicks off the intro by recapping Tight End University and Taylor Swift’s epic surprise concert. Taylor Lewan wins big in Vegas, plus there’s a UFC 317 recap. Then the interview kicks off with Travis sharing hilarious stories about getting into acting alongside Adam Sandler, and they chat about how New Heights is absolutely crushing it and landing unreal guests. The conversation turns serious with thoughts on becoming a better leader and confronting the mortality of being an NFL player. The guys joke about Jason Kelce being the favorite kid in the Kelce household and open up about how uncomfortable being in front of the camera can feel at first. They debate whether the Chiefs got lucky last year and consider what life might look like after football. A wild story about a “Welcome to the NFL” moment with Clay Matthews comes up, and Travis drops the bombshell that Catching Kelce was the worst thing he’s ever done. They get candid about the viral relationship with Taylor Swift and discuss how TEU has grown so big it’s become a must-attend event for tight ends everywhere. Things get light-hearted as they answer what they’d do anything for when it comes to Bud Light, and of course, they wrap up with a classic Shoutout No Free Shoutout.

But that vlog That vlog was a lot of fun We had a lot of fun I'm watching it right now I'm seeing clips of it right now Taylor he starts to work to get 1% better For his redemption pitch that will be coming At some point

First one was a little off But he started to dial it in He started to reel it in a little bit Mitch was back there He was the catcher And he started taking heat from basically Anybody that stepped on the mound But check out that vlog

JPSI see you got the microphone Anything you're wanting to I was just curious if you feel like you need to get one more rep out there because a few times guys came up to you were asking about one-on-ones and you had kind of forgotten about it. You're like, what are you talking about one-on-one who beat me? They're like, dude in Oregon, it just came up a few times. I didn't know. Yeah, a couple tight-ins. Like the competitive juicer coming back.

Yeah, tight-ins came up here. We're going to run one-on-ones today. And I don't know. I feel like I got to put the cleats back on at some point. And I have to do it the right way. way. Once I get this back right, once I get this spine, straight, steady, durable, I think that's when I put the cleats back on. Because right now it's the running back, you know, out of the Show Me State that's at the University of Oregon. I mean, he kind of ended my life out there.

Yeah, it keeps coming up. And is it going to be a similar journey with Taylor's first pitch, how they're thinking about Gronk in the vlog pitched? Maybe you guys start him out at single A, double A. Would you go out there against like a C-team or JV roster? I The problem there is I don't know if you can risk that Like you say I started at the high school level And some high school kid bodies me up

Like that's my entire legacy Just down the drain And we're looking at potential What I'm two, three years removed Right now from the NFL Hall of Fame coming up here in a couple years I'll be eligible Right

If I get beat by a high schooler That goes down the toilet The committee will see that Yeah, the committee will see that. And it's like, it's not as much as like throwing a pitch. Like if you're throwing a pitch of single A, double, a, triple A, like, you're just more so working, getting the fill of the crowd and everything else. Right. It's not your resume is not on the line.

I mean, Taylor's throwing that first pitch. He wants a redemption shot in a stadium. I think no matter what the final boss has to be in St. Louis in Bush Stadium, no matter where he does his pitch and say he throws a strike at some other at some other MLB stadium. no matter what, his final boss has to be in St. Louis. Somebody brought up an amazing point in the comments about Taylor and how his two worst days came at the hands of the Cardinals. The pitch. What was the other part? Arizona Cardinals.

Buda Baker, Taylor Jones. Both Cardinals. Yeah, I mean, for his football career, I don't think there's, I think that's his worst day. Worst day as a player. It's like when my old man brought up my most embarrassing moment at the dad combine. That vlog is still out there. You want to check it out.

But me not knowing my most embarrassing moment, he's like, you embarrass the entire family when you miss two tackles in a row on Ezekiel Elliott. And that was like mental hell. Right. Mental hell. Getting to let's talk some T. Swift. Getting to meet Taylor Swift. A lot of photos have been going crazy.

A lot of positive. A lot of negative too. There's been a lot of negative comments that's come with the... There's always going to be that. Yeah. What is it? There's a song she had.

What is it? Are you okay? Or talking, you are somebody that I don't know. And you're taking shots of me like I'm punctured. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's 7.8am. And I'm just like, damn.

Or something like that. It's like, it's like, you say something. If that's on the street, it's a knockout. If it's in a tweet, that's a cop out. And are you okay anyway? It would have been a great. That's like my next. Anytime I see one where somebody trolls the boys,

that's going to have to be the next one. It's just using Taylor Swift lyrics to combat that. But I will say no matter what people say about Taylor Swift, people say everything. This girl's life is followed and thumb through like a microsepherson. scope the way she handled herself she was obviously very gracious very nice to us super sweet to us i go in for a handshake she goes in for a hug she's hugging everybody no matter if it was me or taylor anybody on the squad she was super nice to them but just observing her with like the

fans and showing up there whenever fans were able to kind of get to her the amount of like that moment was the only moment that would exist the way she's treating everybody and i thought that was fucking cool because this is somebody who you know they have her flight tracker Like everything she does is not necessarily private. She has to work overtime to try and keep as much privacy in her life as possible. And I feel like she has a fan base that comments on absolutely everything she does. I mean, just from the experience we had with our photo, our little flex photo, and just seeing people like they feel like they're detectives, like putting it like,

oh my gosh, they took a photo with Donald Trump and she's taking a photo with these guys. And why aren't they vetting everybody? and then you got her fans that are ballet. What do you expect her to do? Do you expect them to go through everybody's background checks and do this and that? And it is insane how rabid this fan base is. And to operate the way she does,

I legitimately think she's like, it's nothing but class. Yeah, I know Mitch's girlfriend, Brooke, her and sitting, we're at the concert and she went into the bathroom and Taylor Swift was in there just like any other girl on a Friday night at the bar taking selfies in the girls' bathroom with like all of the different tight ends, wives and girlfriends.

And it was just like a normal girls' bathroom that you hear about in the songs. Yeah. But in real life. And it was just like, it seemed like a very wholesome, wholesome moment, which is cool. Yeah, man.

Brooke walked into the bathroom and she walked in. It was Claire Kittle and Taylor, just taking a selfie in the bathroom. I was like, you should have, like, hey, I'm big fans of both of you guys. You mind if I. Photo bomb that thing.

But I was probably so, it's probably just so. it's weird i mean you're like starstruck seeing taylor swift in person that's what i was saying too is like man she looks super normal like do i ask if i want to get in a photo like taylor swift's out there photo bombing pictures i was it was nuts man i was telling my roommates when we saw her like she has this like aura and glow to her like the way i described it was like you know in fortnight how you go and find those chests and they had like we got a fortnight analogy and they're like glowing a little bit like that is that was her and it was like I had never experienced that before and especially

it's like I thought it was kind of weird because I thought I would feel that way about a football player but like she having that aura and like everybody was like everybody would stop and just stare at or whenever she walked by it was super cool and she's super nice to everybody it's like I mean when it leaked that she was going to that she was going to be at that concert it's like ticket prices were 20 or $30 for general admission they weren't even sold out yet and then they're going for over $900 just from the leak. And everybody, any media group or anybody that was there, any brand that was there had to get vetted and there had to be clearance and you had to go through a process to, hey, if

you take a photo, like, you know, you can't post anything until it gets cleared. So like the height of the moment, then Taylor Swift and Travis walk in, Jeff's like, hey, you got to meet the boys. And she was just, she was awesome, man. She was cool. The fact that she played that song, I think tells you everything you need to know about her. She could demand $5 million for that type of performance to play one song. I think she could get $5 million.

And she went out there for free for all these people just because it was all like a part of the vibe of the night. And she wanted to be a part of it. And I think that's super cool. And a star of that level would go out there and do a show for free knowing that everybody does want to see her. And it was one song, but she made it around six to seven minutes and gave everybody the full experience. Yeah, which is something she did not have to do. And just immersing herself in Travis's world. Like it seems like she's one of the homies.

It's like you're sitting there having phomo knowing you're not going to go out there. Hey, you want to go the after party, Jason Aldeen, stuff like that. And you see George's video of them like singing one of her songs. And yeah, dude, it's fucking cool. Even the next day when I was in Boston for dozen trivia. And there was like women. They're wanting to get photos. And all they're wanting to do is like ask about.

Taylor Swift. And they're like, did you hug her? Did you shake her hand? Which hand did you shake with? Can I shake your hand? And they're just, it's crazy, dude. It is nuts. The fan base that she has. Yeah. Speaking of the booze ponies. Doesn't trivia. That atmosphere in Boston was incredible. You're going into a hostile. We're thinking we're going to be in a hostile environment because it's Boston. It's Minifan. We're playing team Kirk Minnehan in the semifinals, the Final Four. to get to the championship and we think the crowd's going to be you know maybe a little against us maybe not we know that we're kind of a fan favorite but bro when they're out there cheering hard as shit for kirk minnehan and then we have a crowd just chanting ponies ponies bro when we went in overtime i wish you guys could have been there i wish you guys could have been there you can only see the videos the videos don't do it justice it was fucking electric so much so it was such an emotional when getting to the championship. Then I'm walking in the back, the backstage in the little tunnel area, like just exhausted, feeling like I just played a football game. That's how incredible this moment was.

It's like Israel Adasanya's speech after he finally beats Pereira. He's like, I wish that everybody could experience this moment one time in their life. But to do that, you've got to take the risk. Bro, I mean, we were down 1411. 1411. And we were on our second to last question we hit our question to make it 1412 it's the final question Jeff's like when we when we got the point to go to 12 he's like if you miss this they win we know getting the question right and it's 14 to 12 going into the last round they have their double sip left and it's a geography question and specialty Georgia yeah yeah yeah and and they had it was something about maybe the second largest our city on the east coast

behind, I don't know if it's Raleigh or. Wasn't it? I thought it was second largest D. City. That was our question. Oh. So they have a double sip. They get both of their guesses wrong. And we're sitting there with a chance to steal. And then we have our question left.

And fights is like, I think it's Richmond, like Richmond, Virginia. And I was like, I love that answer, buddy. We say Virginia, we get the point. It's 14.13. We go into our last question. It's the last question of the match. We get it. We go in OT.

We miss it. we obviously lose and it was the state it was the state with the two largest city starting with d i knew of detroit i'm like is it michigan like i'm thinking detroit but i don't know another d city and you know dana god bless him he's like i think uh michigan's in the middle it's not on the right side like it's in the central time zone and i'm like having a moment i'm like bro i think you're i think you're being ridiculous right now like michigan is for sure in the eastern time zone And fights is like, Dearborn.

Deerborn's a city. I'm like, buddy, I've never heard a deerborn in my life, but we can go with that. All we have right now is Michigan. And Jeff's counting down

and we're like, Jeff, final answer, Michigan. And Jeff tease it up. Going to the championship and we're all sitting there, Kirkmanan, his hands on his knees.

Crowd is fully fucking bought in because there's been like two swings, two score changes, two lead changes. And he's like, the boogist bonus are going to the championship. And the place erupts, bro. Erups.

Portnoy tweeted about the pop. Tweeted about the pop. What a pop for trivia. The product that's been created and does in trivia is incredible. Now, I'm happy to be a part of it. We lost in the championship. We lost in OT.

Experts, Brandon Walker, hats off to Fran. Brandon Walker, PFT. They're great, great competitors. They got us. They were the better team that night. Nothing worse than Brandon Walker. Nothing worse than Brandon Walker. I'll tell you what, though.

we got to steal college football from him because he got college football wrong. Because he didn't know ball. Yeah, he doesn't know ball for real. It was C.J. Spiller, too. Wow. C.J. Spiller. Our answer was Darren Sproles. And it was like, they gave you a quarterback.

I want to say it was Kyle Parker from Clemson. Two sport or legend. And then they give you the stat line of these running backs. And the hint will be like from this ACC school. And ours was Big 12. Ours was Darren Sproles. And Brandon Walker doesn't get C.J. Spiller. We get C.J. Spiller.

I mean, the crowd was fucking electric. And the crowd was bummed. Experts have their fan base, but it's a smaller fan base. Like, you heard there people cheering when they won, but immediately people are flooding out of the building. Booze, ponies lost. They're feeling it with us. We had people recreating our jerseys in the crowd that kind of looked like me, fights, and Dana. It was all time, boys.

That's a where were you moment. Now, that's a where were you moment. In Barstile history, that is a where were you moment. That's the first question. The second question that everybody wants to know is what's next? Yeah. Yeah. There was thoughts of me laying my jersey down on the stage.

There were thoughts of it. Out of it all time. But winning in Chicago, going out to Boston, being around the boys, and just seeing the crowd, the enthusiasm, the passion and energy. I can't leave. You got one more in you. Oh, yeah. We're coming for it all next year.

We're coming for it all next year. And nobody knew that either. Like I didn't tell fights. I didn't tell Dana. I was kind of, I was dabbling with it in my head. On if this is going to be the last run. We just need to have you to have some say in the dates of some of the events.

I know. We missed a, we missed a big trip for the day. We did. We missed a very big trip. A very big trip because it doesn't. I was never going to bring it up because my history and bar still, my history was specifically dozen trivia in how it schedules up and lines up with everything with beer Olympics and moving dates

Sweet I swear to God, I'm going to bring back the hardware for you. Like, this trip is going to be worth it for our family. And she was texting me throughout, did you win? Did you win? I'm like, are you not tuned in live? Just keep sending her the link. Yeah, yeah. Next day when I got home, I'm just showing her the video over and over of like the ponies chant. Did you see me on that? Yeah. And I just keep looking at her like, is it that nuts? And she's like, yeah, baby. I'm like,

I don't think you understand. Like, this is. trivia and these people are going nuts like it's the fucking Super Bowl like I haven't felt I haven't felt that alive since the playing days since wild card round Washington against Green Bay since we got back from beating the Eagles and taking the NFC East and we couldn't move we had to drive two miles an hour in the car people banging on your window that's how fired up they were that we won the division Memorial Stadium back in 08 when Alex Henry banged the 58 yarder to go up on Colorado and sue getting an interception and a mushroom the quarterback's face. The crowd just fucking exploding.

Please welcome Ilya Teporia. Oh, please welcome Amelia Taboria. What's up, Deacon? Come back there. Hey, you might want to see you. Boy, trying to get in the big dog seat. Taylor, by the way, he's in Canada. Every year in July, he goes out to Canada for a few weeks with the fam.

They're getting away. They're out visiting Taylans family, so he's out with the in-laws. So Taylor is out of Canada. I forgot to address that at the top of the episode with the boy not being here. Hey, weekend in Vegas. first weekend for Jared. It was like one of the best weekends of my life. Before we do that, we were just start.

We were talking about the fights a little bit. But Ilya Tuporia, we could be witnessing the next one. First undefeated champion to win a belt in two divisions. Like, it gives me the McGregor vibes. I guess maybe the McGregor hope because you miss the lure of Cona McGregor coming into the UFC. But the way Elya called his shot with Ariel. I'm saying I'm going to sleep him in the first round. Like, this dude is a savage, bro.

And I hope he accomplishes everything he wants because it's just having a guy who, like, runs through the UFC, talks a little bit of shit. He's wearing the suit. He's doing all things. He's saying when he's going to knock guys out. Like, this is the ascension you want to see out of a UFC fighter. And I don't know a whole lot about him. Like, again, just before I started talking about him, I was kind of botching his last name.

I botched his name last week on the episode before UFC 317. But I'm coming out of my chair when he slept Olivera. Big fan of Olivera. But just understanding Ilya a little bit, seeing how he jumped up in weight classes, is his power going to transfer at a heavier weight class? Like, this guy is a fucking savage. One of the reasons you know he's the truth is because he made Connor McGregor tweet late night and that tweet has since been deleted. Oh, it's been deleted? I saw that tweet too.

I saw that tweet going around. I'm like, oh, man, McGregor giving him props. Kind of. But did you see the long? one where he's like still saying nobody's done it like him like not a scratch on me like McGregor was still obviously pumping his own tires yeah but look ilia's undefeated yeah and i think if you compare there three fights i think McGregor was uh men or aldo mendez alvarez and to pouria it was holloway volk yeah and charles olivera you got to give the nod to ilia

with those three. Right now. And it's like, again, Connor was an absolute artist outside of the octagon with promoting fights, talking shit and everything else. I think Ili has got those capabilities

and somebody who's just exciting that you're, whenever his next pay-per-view, people are going to be fucking tuned in that might not be consistently watching UFC fights. You know what I mean? Just because the aura of him

is going to build and people are going to be fucking tuned in and ready to see him fight whoever's next opponent is. People are talking maybe Patty the Batty, Islam. Are there any other options that would make sense? Justin Gachie, he's got to be sitting there pissed

because he's, I think he's like three and one in his last four and he's kind of like, he said on podcast, like, I don't want to fight unless it's for a title shot, I deserve that. Charles got one, Dustin got one, why aren't I getting one? And then they bring Patty into the ring, I'm sure. I know.

You saw Dana was pissed about that. Yeah, so, I mean. I think it was Rogan too. The boy rogues. Hopefully it's Islam at, 170 so we get an opportunity for the first ever triple champ yes dude and that would be electric oh my what was it like Jared what was the walkout all right yeah now we can get to uh the trip in Vegas the boys are going to have a Jared demon and Taylor uh they went out to Vegas for another

vlog taking on the casinos Jared had his first experience in Las Vegas Nevada jacks out in Greece Italy not really sure where the jack trackers at right now but Jared got to He was the next man up mentality. Cut that robe on. Yeah, Jared had the robe on. I'm so proud of that. Talk about your experience in Vegas. I mean, it was like unreal.

Like me and JP were talking about it. We're like, that world that Taylor lives and out there is not real. It's fantasy land. Yeah. It's like you just get treated like a prince from the second you touched down in Vegas. There was someone way to, it's like unreal. Like everyone was so nice. Everyone at Red Rock was the best.

Red Rock is incredible right. Red Rock is I mean literally it's like you're it's like a just a vacation the whole time. My entire staff. Yeah he's like dude I appreciate you being here like you're really busting your ass I mean I guess I'm filming but I was like we just got massages.

We've been sitting by the pool and like I was like I mean it was just unreal. UFC fights are amazing. The casino. I know Taylor doesn't want me to talk about it a lot because he wants it to wait for the vlog but I think I can say it was his best weekend ever. as far as money-wise in the casino. Did you already say anything about it? I haven't said anything about it.

It just brought you on. Yeah, I think Taylor wouldn't mind me. I don't think he would mind me saying that he's made the most money. He's ever made by hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars. But even on the title, too, just to relieve your comfort in saying that. Like in the title, it's going to say what he won. Yeah. For the vlog.

Because he just didn't want us to spoil it. But people just want to know why and how they love the inside, the behind the scenes of it all going down. Just know there was a lot of ups, the biggest of downs. And we came out on top. The biggest of downs? Yeah. A lot of downs. Are you able to elaborate?

When we sat, I'll say when we sat down the first night to check out, you'll see it in the vlog as a little teaser. He's like, we'll check your vibe in immediately down a lot. And then we got out of that hole. But the first thing we did was lose a shit ton of money. Like when we sat down the first. night and that was a a pattern throughout the weekend okay of losing and going back up so I mean tune in on the blog for the ups and down tune in for the ups and down I mean I don't know how much Taylor wants me to say follow it follow exposed follow Cody yeah follow shout out Cody shout out

Katie shout out Danny shout out Nick Merks shout out Nick Merks yeah shout out Michael Chandler the I mean I know we all know this, the best vibe of the weekend. My favorite part of the weekend was when, like, everyone's bringing, like, Dana, like, the Cody dude, like, everyone's, like, bringing hundreds of thousands of dollars to the table. And Michael brings the small, like, he brings, like, $10,000 or something. It's like, I'm making this last all weekend. And he, he had one big loss. I don't even think it's on camera.

He had one big loss, and he's, like, head down on the table, looks up at the TV that's over the table. And they're just playing highlights of him getting his ass. beat. And he's like, this is just nightmare fuel. He's like, this sucks. He's like, I can't imagine a worse situation than what I'm experiencing right now. He's taking a massive beating at the table and you look up

and it's just Olivera highlights. Yeah, it was Oliver highlights. I think his wife said, she was like, hey, don't look up. She's like, don't look at the TV. I've never seen Mike win in Vegas, man. Dude. Yeah. On the table. He was the best vibe, though. Like, he's like, no, you got to do this. He's like, no, you got to do this. He's like, I don't know how to play

any of this. Like, it was just, they're like, no, you got to put this card here. You got to put this card here. It was so funny. And he gets, I mean, I know we all know. It's kind of funny, like, all the celebrities that we're with but I guess it's like Vegas and it's UFC, Mike, when he gets out of the car, mobbed anywhere. Like, I just thought it's funny.

Like, out of all the celebrities we're with, Dana and all these guys, like, Mike just can't walk anywhere in Vegas. He just gets, like, immediately just like 10 kids would walk up, like, to him. Yeah. But yeah, it was an unreal weekend. It is still Jack's thrown. I like nobody even said, nobody was even saying that

it wasn't. Well, I'm just trying to think of the next course of action to say this is a fun bit i had the best time ever i did i guess you could say my vibe i brought taylor the best weekend he's ever had i mean i'm not saying it's me now how how instrumental were you in in in calling certain shots because i know with bachara you got there you know there'll be a little roulette in there yeah so like uh the the first the first time when i told you we were down from that table i single-handedly got him out of it it was me and you'll see it in the vlog. I called, he said, all right, Jared,

you say like red or blue. And I'd said it, and I got him out of the hole. Completely on my own. I didn't know what I was doing. Hundreds of thousands of dollars. Won't say the number. Did you get a gracious tip for your services? I would say I got a gracious tip.

I'm thinking, what? 15, 20%. I don't know about the math. You know, move the decimal. Yeah, let me. Just say the number. I got $15,000. I was gifted $15,000.

That's a big win. 15. Which was like the weirdest thing to accept. Like the first time I helped him get out of a hole, he handed me a chip. I was like, okay, thank you. Like, I don't think I deserve this. Like, I understand why you're giving me this. And then the other two chips were like, just big wins for him.

And he's just like handing him out. I was like, oh shit. You went to Sapphire after? what is it the rhino or something i had no i was like uh pink rhino yeah pink rhino no we we laugh like by like date three we're like we haven't left redrock once we're like it felt like we're like oh man we've been all over vegas like we've eaten in so many nice restaurants we've done all this stuff it's like we haven't left this building once did you eat at the tie spot yeah that was the first meal we literally touched down got there

and went to the tie spot how good is so good dude all the restaurants in there like amazing it felt like I said, like, it felt like we were like going all over Vegas. And then when we actually left the first time, I was like, well, I haven't seen the sun in a while. Like, we just been, inside. How, uh, how was your experience at 317? The fight? The fight. Great. It's like that place was a good restaurant. Big sports guy. Big sports guy. Unreal. Like it was like, this is the thing that everybody says, I think, when they go to a UFC fight, but it's like true, like the sounds of the fighters fighting. And you realize pretty quick, you're like, I've, if you've never been to a UFC fight you're like I've never seen two

like dudes like the top of their profession fight like for their lives like you know what I mean like yeah it's like you quickly realize like maybe I've seen a scrap in school or a bar but I've never truly seen like two elite athletes just beating each other's ass like it's such a buffer yes it's like and the sounds of them like when there's a kick or something it's like yeah

you think you've heard it on TV but like when you hear it which everyone says this but it's just so unreal it's so dead silent in there until something happens then it's just like crazy but it was unreal. And the seats. Those seats were unreal. Insane. I mean, we were like almost this distance away from me to you right now.

Maybe like the front of the bus, but it was just unreal. Big missed opportunity on camera. Big missed opportunity for the world to see D. And Jared Deman on camera. When they came up to Taylor like a fight before that and they're like, hey, we're going to come to you after this next fight. And I'm like, dumbest I'm like, hey Taylor, what does that mean? Like they're coming to you.

And he's like, they're going to do the little shot of me. I was like, okay. So then I'm in my head for the next 45 minutes. Like, do I do something? Like, what do I do? Yeah, what do I do if I do something? And all this stuff. Then, like, they start setting up in front of you for like 10 minutes.

So it's so awkward. We're just like, all right, like at any point I could be on camera. And then I ultimately just decided I was like, maybe I'll just kind of act like, I didn't know that they're there. Kind of like, oh, it's on the big screen. As if right. Right when the TV cuts to. him. Jared's like staring right at the camera.

Then you can see him look over the big screen to see if it's them on. Then he sees them on and he kind of gets his little, his light-skinned eyes going. I just tried to act like I was like, oh, I didn't know this is about to happen as if there's not like a dude and like five dudes holding the cords behind him. And like three, two, one, Taylor,

you're on. I'm still looking at it. Yeah, I should I was ready for you to perform, dude. I was sitting there on the couch, up in the bonus room, just come on, demon, do something. And I told you like, in my head, which this is not a good excuse. I thought I was like,

imagine I try to do something and the dude just kind of zooms in tighter on Taylor and you just see whatever I'm doing just slowly get cut out. Because I was just thinking about your picture. Yeah, Taylor, I mean, for mine, Taylor legit, because they can be a little weird about it and Taylor just pulled me in

and I was just ready with my... Me and Taylor didn't say a word about it. Like once he said, he's like, oh, that means they're going to get tight on me, then I'm just in my own head until the camera comes up. Until the show time. We talked at all. Like, I was just like,

all right, am I going to do something? Tell Taylor I'm going to do something. Who all did you just sit by? Who are the big names? Gary Brecker, I talked to him the entire time. He's the man. Like, we, he's talking about giving me advice for the abs. He's the most.

You're about to get that body right? He was about the 10x? He was in the middle of giving me like the best of advice when like something crazy happened. And then like, he forgot about it and started talking about something else. I didn't want to be like, yeah, but like, what about my abs, bro? Like, you were about to give me something good. no he he's the most like uh he was the most like appreciative person to be in this building like

he just keeps being like man our lives are amazing like this is so amazing to be here just over and over again the happiest of dudes and he's there almost every time too really which is cool you would think it was his first time like being at a sporting event like he was so happy to be there but i'm trying to think who else was around us theo vaughan was down a little bit uh yeah yeah no Caleb wasn't there that was that power slap uh Caleb prefers power slap over here. Caleb and Gleney Balls. Steve, yeah, he was there.

Steve Will Do It was behind us, just screaming at the fighters the whole time. Like about his parlay. I was going to say he probably had a lot of money on it. Yeah, he was like, fucking, like, I need this for my parlay. It was like the only noise coming from our section was Steve just yelling at all these fighters. I mean, that was there wasn't, I mean, I know there probably was a ton of people there. There wasn't that many people in our section that, like, I could turn around see. Yeah.

I don't think it was as star studded as some of the other fights, which is crazy. It's like International Fight Week, but... Yeah. Was it, did y'all see the picture of Theo there for, like, the prelims? Yeah, just sitting by himself. Such a cool, such a cool picture. I think he does that about every time. He does.

Theo's photo dumps after UFC are some of my favorite photo dumps of all time. Because you see him when you're there and he's just taking photos of everyone and he's never in. Yeah. And then this past one, he just drops this photo dump. There's one photo of him and it's him and Laura Sanko. And then there's 12 photos of just UFC staff members. referees, somebody sitting two rows behind him. And it's just like, he's just the most normal dude

with the biggest following posting you the most casual way. When we were there, what was it a year or two ago? He's just like, hey, you guys mind if I get a photo of you guys? Yeah. And he just takes photos and then that's it. It's like the most dad thing. He's just like taking, I saw that photo. It's literally just like the most innocent thing.

Just photos of everyone else. Oh, yeah. Yeah, Pavia. Yeah, Pavia. Diego just, me and Taylor go back. to like, you know how there's like the little private room behind the seats that's like the, like whatever you call like food and drinks and stuff. Me and Taylor would go in there like between every fight just like get a water.

And like we're talking with somebody. I forgot who it was. It was these two college football players. I forgot who they were. And Diego just pops out of nowhere, just energy out of 10. Just like, yo, Taylor. And we're like, yo, what? Like just added nowhere.

Just I forgot what he was even talking about. Me and Taylor were like, where the hell did Diego come from? But yeah, great weekend overall. Yeah. I'm trying to think if I'm missing anything. I think that was it. your video, by the way, you and the robe, the curtains opening up. That was one of those.

I think I told Mitch this morning. I was like, that's one of those because I don't tweet that much. I'm like trying to tweet more working here. I was like, that would have been one of the biggest misses if that wasn't funny. Because I was like, if this isn't funny, that's like the cringiest video ever. If people are just like, what is this? Like, why are you posting? I was praying that he was going to end it dropping the road and video cuts right before he's naked.

That would have been elite. Because when I'm taking that, like, think about how awkward that is. Did you stay in that in the big room of Taylor or did you get your own? Big room. Big room. Big room. I mean, that room is just like absurd on its own. When Taylor first started, we were in like a, we were in like a sweet the first time.

And, you know, if you're a big gambler in Vegas, like they want you to keep coming back because it's like the house always wins. So they want to keep courting you. They want you to keep coming back. And every time Taylor would go back, the room just got bigger and bigger and bigger. This is called. This one's called the Viva. The Viva.

The Viva? Yeah. On that top floor? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that room, they might have to give Taylor like a little, like a little like twin bed next time based on what he got this weekend. Because I was telling Taylor was like, how does this work? Like you just left with a lot of money.

Like, no, no. They want to give you more. Right. When you win? That's what I'm saying. So win, win, when. Say Taylor didn't. They give you money and then they're like, now here's the best room ever.

Say Taylor wasn't, say there was no relationship with Dan and the UFC. And Taylor was just a massive gambler. Yeah. If he's winning like that at Red Rock, they're going to continue to put him up as, because they want him to keep coming back. If he took him for however much money, they want him to come back. Oh, I understand. The table is the more chance that it swings into the house's favor.

So they're going to court you even more, even though you beat him. Taylor's tell me, like, there's like, he said there's things that he mentioned years ago to, like, one employee that he likes. Like, oh, I like, like, this product or something like that. And then like when you get in the room, it's just pyramids of that product. Like they had like it's like the most customized room for you too. Yeah. Unreal.

It's crazy, man. It is like I said, it's not a real world. It's fake. It's fantasy land. Oh yeah, that was us on a party bus with Michael Chandler. Like yeah. I was expecting more Jared out in the wild videos. I took a couple.

I have another video on that bus that I can't post. You can show us after. Yeah. And I'll say it's funny. Michael Chandler is like giving Taylor basically a lap dance. And I was like, Taylor like, we got to post this. And he's like, that's just for us. So maybe I should have said that.

Yeah, we got to. The way that you just delivered that. We might have to cut the whole thing. That's not. That's not. Okay, not like a lap dance. But you just said there's a video I have that I couldn't post that was Michael Chandler giving Taylor Luana lap dance.

And you're like, oh, this would be funny to post. And they say, no, don't. compost that's just for us like yeah it's my bad Mitch you guys are fucking I have a question it was like sober it wasn't like yeah okay

just let Jared keep going were there any movie nights with Taylor I know that that was something y'all were excited for it no and it's funny because we we've been hyping up that we all wanted to watch Pearl Harbor the movie like we've been talking about that all weekend.

We're like, we got to get to the room to watch Pearl Harbor. And again, not to spoil the vlog, when we were about to go, we went downstairs to just say hey to somebody,

like in the high roller room. Like, we're just going to go say hey to like so and so. And then we're going to go up and spend the next like four hours watching that movie. Or however,

it's a long ass movie. And that, when we walked in there is when Taylor hopped on a table that won him the biggest payday of his life. Like just a little throw away like, oh yeah, I'll throw something on here.

And that was the biggest one of the vlog, was that one when we were going to go watch a movie and we stayed down there for only like 15 minutes but then we were on such a high I think we went to the pool or something like we were just like that was crazy but yeah we did not get a movie in but we wanted to watch Pearl Harbor so bad all weekend it'll happen yeah we'll hit a movie

sometime probably not transition to a big week coming up Sherman Young is having his first kid Sherm how are you feeling you could save son we do have her for the dad's pod that'll drop Wednesday morning That'll drop Wednesday morning.

As you're listening to this, for the dads will drop tomorrow morning. Yes. Big, big week ahead. Jill's mom got in town last night. We're getting the house prepped. Nursery looks great. Duna base in my car is set up for those at home that don't know what a Duna base is. That's the car seat.

So the chariots ready for the drive home from the hospital. DMs are getting flooded with dad advice. Shout out to everybody that's been DMing me. It's sick, all the stuff that I've learned just in the last like two nights of just going through DMs. And it's just all these people being super supportive. Don't do this. Do this. The first poops like, you know, tar, which Jill warned me about.

You know, stay in the trenches. Do what the wife says. Don't get on this side of her body during delivery. Stay, you know, above the legs, but hold the legs. Stay north of the curtain. Yeah, stay north of the curtain, but hold the legs. Keep her in the straddle. We're ready, dude.

I'm nervous. Dude, it's, yeah. It's going to change your life, bro. I know. For the better. For the better. There'll be some moments you'll be ready to leave. Oh, yeah.

Hey, should I leave my family right now? Would you have a lot? They say single moms breed NFL draft picks. Yeah, yeah. Oh my gosh. It's going to be awesome, man. And maybe hoping fingers crossed, freedom baby. Fingers crossed, freedom baby.

So what we're looking at is 1030 is when we'll be on the second is our appointment for induction. And this isn't an elective induction. It's like for an actual medical reason. So fingers cross and knock on wood that we have a hospital bed when we get there. But if everything goes to plan, there'll be 10.30 on the second, Jill gets induced around 1145-ish is like when that process happens. So we're almost on the third by that time. So then if it's, you know, that 24-hour mark and we'll see. Yeah. It could be a freedom baby. But she'll probably come on the third, which is totally fine. I was talking with Mitch. I was like, we might have to get on the eastern side of that building and get the fireworks show. of downtown. That would be crazy. Yeah,

cap it off, right? Oh, yeah. I'm excited for you, man. You guys got any big Fourth of July plans coming up? You know your boy's going back to Bontar, Missouri. Your boy going to Litchfield,

South Carolina, Sitton's family. They always do a beach trip every 4th of July. So I'll be down there. I think we'll get there on Thursday night, late drive from Charleston to Litchfield,

And it would definitely got to get a picture.

But my buddy Andy, who's coming down, he actually put me on to Mike, and this will be his third Mike concert in like a year. He went earlier when they were in Philly. He tours with him. Yeah, damn near. He went to the Philly concert, and then when Mike did like his first round of tours before he said he was going again he went up to new york to see him so we're gonna

In airmail and the championship for the win? That pop in Boston. I don't know if it can be replicated. That's all. That's all I'll tell you. And I'm kicking myself. I'm kicking myself. I should have took somebody out to vlog it.

Love's ball. Loves ball. This is a guy.

Luke Combs is a guy you want on your team. And after a win or a loss, let's just call it high school football. If you win and lose with this guy, he's going to be at the house, the house party afterwards, and you're just going to be talking about how you should have won, how you could have won, how we're in the best moments of our life. That's the type of attitude that this guy has. He loves ball. He loves ball.

He's all about the boys. And he was telling some fun stories. Stories that's like, yo, when you do, come. on like this we're going to have to reenact our entire energy when he told this story back when he played in high school. Yeah, we've got to get him on the bus. Got to happen at this point.

He's got to be somebody that comes on maybe a couple times on busing this football season just because he can break down ball. He can break down ball with you. He loves college football. Can talk NFL. But he's about it. He's his team. He was on the Panthers.

Yeah, what are they called? The Cammo one's a great. Greg Olson, retro Panthers one. It was sick. And then who's his college team? Appalachia State. Yeah, App State. That's right, because he was giving Taylor shit.

We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to us. We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys?

I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. And we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.

But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. If you're watching the latest season of the Real Housewives of Atlanta, you already know there's a lot to break down. Gorsha accusing Kelly of sleeping with a merry man. They holding Kay Michelle back from fighting Drew. Pinky has financial issues. I like the boozy style of Housewives show. I think it looks like it's going to be interesting. On the podcast, Reality with the King, I, Carlos King,

recap the biggest moments from your favorite reality shows, including including the Real House Wise franchise, the drama, the alliances, and the T, everybody's talking about. As an executive producer in reality television, I'm not just watching it, I understand the game. As somebody who creates shows,

I'll even say this. At the end of the day, when people are at home, they want entertainment. To hear this and more, listen to Reality with the King on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcast,

or wherever you get your podcast. If we're sicking off, can we do we can do shout out or pet peeve Yeah, get something off your chest Mitch,

I know you've been Yeah, pet peeve for me I actually saw Will do this the other week and it's not just specific to Will, it's to everybody

because these are always the people that always ask and can I borrow your charger and I'm sitting next to Will in one of the meetings his laptop is going I know they got to record for the dad's after

and he gets the notification that his iPad is at 20%. And it says, would you like to go to low power mode or would you like to just cancel it? And sure enough, Will cancels it. And then the 10% one comes on again, he cancels that one, declines low power mode.

And then 10 minutes later, hey, has anybody seen my charger man? My iPad died. I had no idea it was about to die. Really, you had two opportunities. I did that all in a row. Yes, bro. And whenever people don't put on their low power mode,

I'm like the phone iPad, whatever it is, gives you two opportunities to at least make the most of your battery. So just do it. There's no, I don't understand why people press cancel on it. You're right. You're right.

That's my pet peeve, man. You're right. Because I'll tell you this, even when I cancel it and it continues to get lower, I always ask myself, why don't you touch low power mode? It's the same button. It's the same button.

And you have to press a button. And it doesn't go away like you have to make a decision. You're right. And people make the wrong decision too often. You're right, man. And huge shout out to JP because like that one hurt you because right immediately after it happened, he had to come get it off his chest. He was like, I just saw some wicked shit go down. I don't know how to deal with it.

Go ahead, Mitch. The floor is yours. My pepive of the week is when people say they're going to do something. and then do not follow through with it. I had a situation this weekend. We were helping one of my friends move. She made a group chat. And it's not like one of your boys.

It's like a friend that's like a girl, like a friend that's ours. And so like obviously like she's not going to be able to move like the bigger stuff that like guys is like she's going to have she's going to struggle with that. So she made a group chat like two weeks, two three weeks before she was going to move. hey guys like i'm moving this weekend is anybody here to help and everybody in the group chat said yes we got you come saturday time to move everybody fails and i'm the only one there helping her and one of our guy one of say his name foul oh not foul this is your guy this is my best friend And this is a very like the person we were helping moving is a good friend of ours like a good friend of foul, good friend of mine. Like it's one of those people you want to help.

He said, yeah, we got you. We're down to help. This motherfucker said, I'm like, I'm about to go help Jordan. You're going to be able to help out. He's like, nah, I'm, I got to go tour an apartment. Mind you. An apartment tour takes 20 minutes. I was there helping her for three, four hours moving stuff.

And this kid never showed up. And I was so pissed with him. And then a couple of my other buddies, they were golfing. And they came after the round of golf. And including one guy who barely knows Jordan still helped him, still helped her move. And foul never came. I still haven't seen him since Saturday. We live in the same house.

And I haven't seen him in three years. days have you talked to him no I haven't had the opportunity because I based time him right now base time he's at work he's not going to answer face time foul might be lashing out as well I know him and Mitch have lived together for a long time and it sounds like foul was looking for an apartment so maybe is are y'all no longer well no so uh like there's four guys in the house right now three of them have girlfriends except foul uh and we're all moving in with our girlfriends oh oh and so foul is going to be by himself. But like our lease isn't up until September

and he's doing it in June. So I don't know. Matt will live with him. All right. Is he the guy in the wing? That's the boy. He's not going to answer. He's on.

He's working. He's working. There he is. You're on the pod live right now. Chris. Yeah. What's up? I got words for you.

Fowl. Mitch just did his pet peeve. What's up, Fowl? Mitch just did his pet peeve. And his pet peeve of the week was how everybody in the group chats said they were going to help Jordan move. And you were an absolute no-show. Not only were you a no-show, you didn't say a damn word about it.

You golfed all day long. You didn't tell. Oh, he wasn't golfing? He was torn an apartment. You were torn an apartment. You didn't let people know you weren't going to come. And Mitch, as his best friend, absolutely pissed at you for letting everybody down.

He's mad at me. Yeah. Are you mad at me? Yes. Very much show. You shouldn't be mad at me. I had stuff going on, man. You were touring apartment for 20 minutes.

I tore two apartments for an hour. And I had something at night. You know what I mean? And I was there for three or four hours helping her move. You put that work in. I happened to be busy. And you said that you were going to be able to help her and you never did. Yeah.

Some stuff came up for sure. That's on me. I apologize. You know what I mean? You don't got to apologize to me. You got to apologize to Jordan. Yeah, I'll make it up to her. I'll make it up to her.

All right. We're going to talk more tonight. Absolutely. Absolutely. Hey, Ben. Why's you're seeing you? All right, buddy. That's such a legend.

Absolutely. Pleasure seeing you. Pleasure seeing you. He's like, I got shit going on. You know what I mean? It's like, no. You said you were going to go tour the duet. And then, which takes 20 minutes,

it's five down, five minutes down the road. from us. He had a tour in the morning way before we even started moving and never, never showed up. He texted Jordan like, oh, sorry, like, I'm not going to be able to make it. Like some bullshit excuse. And then, dude, I, I, I, you were seeing red. Oh, I still am. Yeah, I was going to say, you can't even get words out right now. Talking about it now is making me even more angry than I was earlier. So time out, time out. So he texted Jordan before the day started and said he wasn't going to be able to come. Exeter in the morning said like, hey, something came up.

I'm not going to be able to come. Which is, yes, yes. Smart like he's getting ahead of it. Because I'm with you on the pet peeve of committing this something and not following through on your commitments. He committed to it like two weeks ago and then scheduled the stuff he had to do. He's scheduled after the fact of committing. If that makes sense. Yeah.

So he knew he had. But he's trying to find a place to live. We have two more months to do that. Or at least isn't up until the middle of September. He said some stuff came up. See, you don't know, foul like I do. Some stuff came up. He was laying in bed.

He's probably Jay and off or something. Jay and off. Jay and off. This is a kid's show. This is a kid's show. I promise you. I promise you. He was laying in bed.

And then he left as soon as I got back from helping her move. And so I didn't even get a chance. to talk to him. And then yesterday, he was just up in his room the entire, the entire day. Nobody in our house saw him until he did a load of laundry at 10 o'clock at night and our dryers. We have a buzzer on our dryer and it was just going off like crazy. And I'm like, this motherfucker just, it just kept stacking them. I was, I was pissed and still am. I just want to interject very quickly. I have never heard neither foul nor you sound more philly than in that conversation. The Philly

voice came out and I wish you could see Fowles' face with, hey, something came up that night, though, for sure. You know what I mean? He was giving them the eyes like, you really doing this right now? Yeah, I mean, we definitely did just ambush him there, especially at work. And now he's just texted me, so I don't know what he has to say. But yeah, there's going to be a conversation had tonight and I will report back.

Hey, shout out, no free shout out. to the person who brings an exciting dessert to the cookout on 4th of July. Last year, and I forget who it was, but somebody that just has a dessert laying there, and it caught my eye, and I love fruit pizzas. You gave a fruit pizza shout out not too long ago. But those people who go out of their way to bring in a creative dish, a dessert of some kind, because people are there,

they're grilling out, hey, bring sides of you want to you. You got the bags of chips. You got sides of you know your boy loves baked beans. I love the big beans now. But then the people who go out of their way to bring a nice dessert dish that kind of just sets the whole party on fire. He's like, oh shit. Hey, who made this? Who made?

Oh, Jennifer, you made this? This shit is amazing. But shout out those people. Shout out no free shoutouts to people who bring the desserts on, turn the cookout on 4th July. Shout out no free shout out. Happy Gilmore. The OG happy Gilmore. Watch that last night.

And I haven't belly laughed like that in a freaking minute, dude. It's every scene, every single scene. I would go to say it's in my top five comedies of all time, not just Adam Sandler, but all-time comedies. Happy Gilmore and can't wait for the second one. Great movie. On that note, too, we didn't do Pizza Friday and Movie Night because we had our anniversary date night on Friday.

So we did movie night yesterday, Saturday or Sunday. We watched Night at the Museum. Night at the museum, Root was all the way bought in, too. And that's a good movie. The part where he's like, do not touch this. Yeah. You cross this long. Go ahead, Mitch.

Anybody else got a shout-out, no-free shout-out? Matt? I don't think so. You don't want to shout-out, no-free shout-out, a picture you took with Taylor Swift? No, that's... You might as well talk about it. You posted about it.

Well, I got a lot of heat from you guys from it, So I'm trying to keep it. So just for some context. Clump and Matt went into a tight-in-use, like, pre-party before Titan U week kicked off. What's up? Welcome. They're a welcome party. And Clump wanted to go with the mission of booking Brock Bowers, which Brock Bowers will be on the show here soon.

And they got the experience of meeting a lot of the tight ends and came across Taylor Swift. and Matt's sitting here chop it up. Matt, by the way, Matt is an intern at Bus with the Boys. He's been an intern with us for a cup of coffee so far. And he's rolling with the head dog, Jeremy Klump, over to in a working situation. And he apparently is just, you know, talking Taylor's ear off the entire time. And then at the very end, asked her for a photo. He gets the photo with Taylor Swift.

and then he posts it on Snapchat. We're not going to say if that was the leak that let everybody know that T Swift was in Nashville. I'm sure there's a lot of fan pages on the back end that know we're every move. However, Matt Malone is his name as an intern with Bustin with the boys, been here a cup of coffee.

Biggest person, celebrity that we've come across and on a working trip is going out of his way to talk this celebrity's ear off and then ask her for a photo and putting it on a Snapchat mind you, I won't say the rest. Any photo that we took with Taylor in it had to get sent somewhere else to get pre-approved. Any photo that we took with Taylor in it had to get pre-approved.

Matt, now the floor is yours for your shout-out, no free shout-up. Yeah, so should I just tell you, like, kind of step-by-step what happened? Because that was just, that's very surface level what happened. I got to stand up for myself. But I kind of nailed it, yeah? 50%. Yes. So we go up, me and Clump get the job done.

We're applying pressure. we got, we're getting people on the pod. We had to do what we had to do. Clumps like, hey, I'm out of here. Do you want to stay? I said, yeah, once in a lifetime opportunity. Shout out the bus with the boys for this opportunity. Very excited.

So I stayed. And we were with the management team. And so they were like, hey, Matt, you know, they were more excited to take the photo with Taylor Swift. I'm not a huge listener, but I was like, sure. So they were like, can we go get this photo with Taylor? Can you take it? I said, yeah, sure.

Let's go. So we, you know, organically start talking to her. I'm just standing there. I'm not saying a word. I'm not doing anything. They're like, Matt, can you take this photo of Taylor? And I said, sure. So I take the photo and I said, all right, I kind of want to talk to Taylor.

So in the most organic way possible, I go, did you go to Hendersonville High School? She's a nat. She lived in Nashville. She goes, oh, yeah, I did. So we start chopping it up. And it was very normal. It was a great conversation. She's all class.

She's all class. Very sweet. Very sweet. Yeah, I think she wanted to hear somebody from Nashville just kind of, you know, I'm not a huge fan, but I didn't. She wanted to hear somebody from that. I think so, yeah. I think it was a refreshing conversation for her. So we talked about, yeah, we talked about Hendersonville and, you know, I went to Father Ryan. So we were talking about that. And then, yeah, so we started talking. Then I go, hey, like, I don't want to be this guy. I was like, but can we take a photo? I was like, I want to impress some women. And she was like, I'd love to do that. So we take. the photo and this is where it gets good. So we take, this is crazy. This was unbelievable. So we take the photo and I'm not touching her. I don't, you know, I'm

very respectful. I'm hands, you know, right here. And she goes, should I put my arm on your shoulder? And I was like, oh my God. So I was like, yes, I love that. And we take the iconic photo and I, and I didn't want to post it. I didn't post on Instagram and I'm, you know,

I have no following. So I was like, I'll throw it on the story. Just see what happens. Did I caption it? Hey, babe? Yeah, I did. I did. I got a lot of texts. It was awesome. But the boys gave me a lot of heat. I should have kept a professional.

I was in the big spotlight. For future reference, I won't do that anymore. But it was a super cool moment. For sure, shout out clump. Shout out everybody. But I think she wanted an organic conversation from a Nashville local. And we chopped it up for like 10 minutes. And when I walked in, I said 15, 20, it was probably 10.

30 to begin. The story changes. It was like probably eight minutes flat. Eight minutes flat. But it was awesome. It was six. So yeah. That was cool. But yeah, that was the story. That's my shout. No free shout out. Taylor Swift. I also did meet her in that moment

too before that happened. And I just thanked Trav for having us. Said nice to meet you, Taylor. Thanks for letting Trav come on the bus. Shook her hand and got out of there. No photo. But no, it was, she was honestly so cool. It was it is a sick photo She put her arm on my shoulder In Matt's defense he was very well behaved there

We was fine It wasn't just Brock Bowers We got a couple other guys coming up Which is awesome and it was a lot of fun But she was taking pictures a lot of people And she was super cool She gave me like a punch on the arm Because I said thanks for letting Travis come on the bus

And she's like His leash ain't that long Like she was cool She was awesome really cool Just a cool experience But yeah Matt he's I took some real him in before we got there I did tell him

It is a work event, so do not be chugging. We kept it. We kept it tight. He did good. It was a business trade. Yeah. Do you love the brand or do you love what the brand does for you? I love the brand and I also love a little bit what the brand does for me for sure.

Yeah. Am I going to be, this is an honest show. Yeah, you guys, but that's what that's on you guys for building such an empire of a show. That's on us. That's on you guys. I'm pumping your tires. You guys built an absolute monster of a show. I got lucky enough to get, you know, be part of it.

I think it's funny how you pump our tires in the public eye when it can work out in your favor, but you don't pump our tires on your LinkedIn because busts want the boys is nowhere to be found. What are you talking about? It's my last post. A member of the fraternity is on. Whoa, whoa.

I got 1098 likes on my last LinkedIn post. Check it out right now. He knows what likes. Sure. Did you do this? Check it out right now. Right there. Very grateful for the opportunity.

Still am. Very grateful. Damn, Sherm. Experience though. Experience though. Well, I mean, I'm going to add that on there. I'm too busy, you know, trying to help you guys. I don't want to be on LinkedIn right now.

I want to be pumping out content. Hey, if he didn't have that last post, we would have had him there for a long of fellas. No, yeah, there's right there. And I did the, make sure I did the Fandual logo one, too. I even liked it is the worst part. No, yeah. Shirm had it up here like he had something typed up. and he's like not on the LinkedIn profile.

Damn, the fraternity one's still on there. I got to delete that. That's beautiful. That's brutal. Member of fraternity. If you keep going down, it's crazy. Like, I worked at the zoo. Hockey player.

Yeah, it was wild. But yeah, that was an incredible opportunity. Like, incredible. And she is really, like, the coolest person ever. And, like, she's like Elvis popular. Probably way more than Elvis. Yeah, I mean, the fame that she has, again, And people can say, oh, she's a pro, she's trained, she's this and that, dude, you don't have, you're not on a pedestal so high and you're able to just operate like that 24-7, especially with fans.

Like, you know, you're more inclined to do it when you're working with brands and people around you and media and stuff like that. But again, fans that were getting to her, dude, and the moments that she was having with fans was really cool to see. Yeah. All right, let's hit, let's hit Gooner in the month and we'll get out of here because we've been, how long we've been going, Mitch? 1 13. Gotta keep it under an hour. Gotta keep it under an hour. I have to keep it under an hour.

Let me check my phone because we had a three-way tie. Jesus, Sherman, you're going to have to get a new shirt, bro. All right. We have a two-way tie. How do we end the two-way tie? Who do you go in? I had text out to Jack, Garrett, and Taylor on who their Guna the month was. So Gooner of the Month is brought to us by True Classic.

If you're looking at your boy right now on Sporting True Classic, you look good, you feel good, you play good, nice fit, nice feel, great material, great material. We're like cartoon characters dressing up in True Classic every day of the week. You can find True Classic in Costco. They're also in Sam's Club, Target, or online at True Classic.com slash Bussin. Kids and Women's Line is launching later this year. Look good, play good, feel good. And True Classic is a proud sponsor of our Gooner of the Month.

Gooner of the Month is basically our employee of the month. They love the cause. They're giving a gift card to the winner each time that a Gooner of the Month wins. This month, we have a two-way tie. And I'm wondering how we break that tie. Should it just go, whoever I voted for? We could throw it to the comments and whoever has more. But the comments, they're not on the inside.

Yeah. That's true. They're not on the inside. Sounds like it's up to you. All right. While Will's doing this, I would like to give another shout out to True Classic in that. I swear that every single time I wear True Classic, whether it's pants, shirt, jacket, you're guaranteed to get one positive comment about your outfit.

Because there's no logo, everybody asks, hey, where did you get those pants? Where'd you get that shirt slash that shirt makes you look jacked? And I've never seen another brand hold it like that. And so, you know, as a former gooner of the month winner, that gift card changed my whole entire life when I'm out there walking around Nashville because people are like, man, where'd you get this? Hey, dude, off of that, when I was in Chicago a couple weeks ago doing a dozen, I was around fights.

And he was asking like, hey, how's life, blah, blah, we're going back and forth. He's like, I mean, look at you. You got these nice t-shirts on. I'm like, bro, we've been with True Classic for a minute now. I'm just rocking a True Classic T. this one right here basically all right our gooner of the month for the month of June is going

to go to none other than Jeremy Clump Clump you're an absolute dog in the shop you handle a lot of different stuff you touch everything that the brand touches you oversee all the shit that goes on you have all the back in conversations

monotonous annoying whatever it is you handle it you handle it with class except for that one time And you also, which, you know, we don't got to get into or talk about, but you also have stuff going on off the field with your family that I know makes things hard at times. But you are a fucking stud and a gooner for Buston with the Boy. So shout out you for winning Gooner the Month at Bustin with the Boys. Well, speech. Speech.

Honestly, truthfully, I know I won Gooner the Month, but it makes it so easy working here. This is the most fun I've ever had in my career. I've worked tons of fun jobs. This job, Bustin with the boys, like Matt was saying, like, it is so much fun working here. I feel like we have such great vibes. This last week at Tite NU was so legendary. I feel like I'll remember it for the rest of my life. It was so much fun.

Appreciate all you boys. You guys all rock. Everyone, Will Taylor. It's sick working here. And more to come for us. We're fucking rising. It's awesome. So shout out to the boys.

Shout out to everyone else. Not me. Shout out to the boys. I'm going to split up that gift card and give it to the boys. Not me. I don't need it. I don't wear play. I guess I do wear plain shirts. I probably should rock some more true classic. So you're going to split up the cash too? It's cash? Oh yeah. There's also cash in there.

A very good friend of the show, Travis Kelsey.

We won't talk about August 28th coming up. We'll get to that later, but this is no... We want to talk about what coming up? August 28th. Cincinnati Nebraska. It kickoff college football. I think that's exactly where we should start. Because we're sitting here.

Obviously, Travis just flew in G6. Come on. He doesn't have a hat on. He gets off the plane and goes, hey, by the way, Can you grab that hat from it? You put that one on and shows up. No, we go to the bus first. We gotta go to the shop first.

Yeah, yeah, we'll go to the shop first. Get that done. So how are you two? I think we're great. No, we're great. Clearly a lot of, you know, a lot of good fun, shit-talking banter on the internet with the new Heights podcast with the boys. But there's no shot you guys on this game. What?

Buddy, you guys ended the year last year on a five-game losing streak. Yeah, which means we were getting guys ready for this year. this year. You're not sitting guys. Sitting guys. Yeah, not sitting guys. Getting guys in that we needed to get experience. So, hold on.

Let me just break that down for a second. And we got a quarterback coming back, Sorsby. Is it going to be a fucking stunned? Five and seven. Three and nine the year before. Yeah. We just got better. Guys are going to be fucking working their ass off.

They ain't getting better like we're getting better. What is what I'll say to? What is Matt Ruh got them boys do? Buddy, we're going to be a pack of wolves and you guys are going to be a bunch of little bunnies in a petting zoo and you're not going to know what hit you when we grab every end, every limb of your body. What's my Twitter account? We're going to get that. We're going to get Matt Rule showing up. So you guys, your coaching staff, you go to five-game losing streak, and your answer to that is

the coaches decided, let's not even focus on the game plan. Let's not focus on this team anymore. Let's go get some guys in here that we want to get in here. No, I'm assuming that's what happened. Okay. And you're going at him for going three and nine and then five and seven, which is, you guys progressed by two games. I'm not even thinking about last year. And Nebraska progressed by just one game. and the coach of staff.

We had a winning season. What bowl game they played last year? Because it wasn't the bad boy mowers club. This is what Nebraska's doing right now. What the fuck is this?

We're having some fun. What is this? That means future national champions. What is this? Is that what that means? Yeah, I thought we were going to speculate. No, I think we put it to bed on the last episode.

Okay. That's a Travis Kelsey fit right there on Raola. That is a Travis Kelsey fit. I don't know. That might be with my homes. Top and bottom set he got there. Does Patrick ever talk about Dylan Raola? Yeah, Dylan's been to a few games.

He's not just heading there. Yeah. He's good people. He's good people. But it gets a little, I like Dylan Raola. Yeah. It gets a little worrisome when I'm seeing side by sides of pre-games and they're doing the exact same thing.

They got the same like body type too. Like they enjoy beers. Yeah. You can tell I enjoy some beers. They're B-3s, dude. Bad body ballers. Like they're doing their thing. They got that B3 shot 24-7.

Are you going to be there? 100% yeah. All right. It's right there in the backyard, baby. It's going to be fun. Are you going to be there? Oh, we're going to be there, buddy. Taylor knows this one's been sur structured around Nebraska football.

Will, before we even started the new heights or anything, he goes to me, he's like, hey, I know we got the Boston Bowl this year, but I love to do Cincinnati, Nebraska and Arrowhead. I think that's a great one for us. And I think there was one, maybe Iowa too. Like, there was another game. And I'm thinking to myself, Will, we can't go to a,

Every Nebraska game. This is getting out of hand, out of pocket. I'm telling you this year feels different. Dude, I'm not allowed. This year feels different. It's the definition of insanity with this guy. Every year, right around this time, right around tight end you, is when Will starts being like, I'm telling you,

we might win it all this year. Then we pull up the schedule. I don't see a loss on the schedule. That's what he says. I can realistically see a loss, maybe too. Yeah, September 20th is one. the maybe. That's maybe too. That's the baby. No, the, I don't want to put it out there.

I'm not here to play hypotheticals. But if I'm going to be a little realistic, I got to have a loss or two on the schedule. When you and your brother were on your podcast, New Heights, talking about this game coming up. Yes. Were you guys nervous about putting a bet in? How confident are you about your bear cats? I've lost so many fucking bets that I think I'm due for a win. Okay.

I think I'm due for a win. I wore fucking Texas Tech's mascot helmet. I wore BYU's jersey last year. I think my bear cats are going to fucking, they're going to come through. And you guys are going to have to fucking come on in New Heights. And you're rocking a fucking Cincinnati jersey. If we lose, I'll rock in Cincinnati, Jersey.

You'll wear the hat. You got to wear the hat. Pants. I'll wear whatever you want. I'll wear whatever you want. Pants helmet. I'll come in day of, and if you had something else extra to add, I'll wear it.

You know it would be awesome? I'll be yours. You toss me around. Hate me like one of your French girls. Yeah. Yeah. I think Will Compton, no shirts just Speedo. A Bear Cat Speedo would be a good look for the New Heights podcast.

Oh, man. Right? I mean, I don't want to get myself caught up in this shit. I ain't trying to wear no speedo. Yeah, but obviously I think I think Nebraska's going to win that game. I think Bearcats are. You're fucking kidding me? I think the Brass is going to win this game by probably multiple touchdown.

Multiple touchdown. Do you think the cats are going to go in an arrowhead and lose by multiple touchdown? It's going to be a home. Early on last year, we were on fire. So was Nebraska. When Nebraska beat Colorado. We're on fire. We won our first five games.

They got mopped by Colorado. First of all, mopped. By Colorado. First of all, it wasn't a great showing. But Colorado. I know, dude, they got, dude. Travis Hunter, man. The guy's really good.

Do you think he's going to be good in the NFL? Hell yes. It's a hard question to ask because you're still active. 100% but like what's the expectation of world class athlete all pro both sides both sides see that's the thing i don't know how they're going to it out i don't know if uh because teams are going to be going after them right and like they're going to try and make his day yeah they're going to try and make his day miserable right and he's got to go play to wide receiver and then turn around and basically be like high school where you just stand on the field the whole time yeah and just wait for the game

to be over dude if he plays corner they're going to run deep deep balls at him all day they're going to run the wide receivers just take off on them all day just to try and get his like him tired yeah i'm like why wouldn't you just attack him that way but dude watching him so we went to colorado nebraska and you could just see like his aura his attitude like pregame everything he's got the juice and he plays yeah he loves football i saw him play basketball and i was like oh yeah he's an athlete do you think he could throw a pitch right now yes later once he hits like 30, 35. Maybe a surgery.

It's over. 30 to 35. But I think a guy like him, like, if he makes, I don't think he has to make a pro bowl to not be a bust. I don't think he has to. If he's solid on both sides of the ball and plays all the snaps, like, I feel like that's something we've never seen before. Jacksonville. You think you guys were on a heater to open up the year last year. I was watching this play.

I thought we were pretty solid. Towson. Towson, we had smoked them. Towson, Miami of Ohio. Houston. Smoked him, big rivalry game. Houston. Got them.

That was about it. Yeah. Houston was solid last year. UCF. UCF is always got a good... We're going to roll you guys. It's going to be fun, though. That'll be a fun...

We got a veteran team this year. We got a bunch of seniors. You got some guys getting some looks. You know who their head coach is? Who? Scott Satterfield. Brother of? Brother of.

I think, I believe brother of. Not good? What, his brother isn't good? Yes. Oh, all right. He's a solid, he's a solid position coach. What position? Interesting time.

Tight ends. Are you fucking kidding? Nebraska is minus six and a half on Fandall right now. He can coach you. That's, yeah, these are the Fandahs right out of the game. You might want to take some points on that game, no? No, this has got to be Mono E Mono.

No, we're going mono-e-mano. I'm only going wins and losses here. Yeah. Okay. Take some points? Very bold of you. Very bold of you. Very bold.

MoneyLine 188 on Fandool. You guys are pro. You guys are pros on this shit. I mean, it is. It's what you guys do. Yeah, it's what we do. It is what we do. So you take in Sinti money line? No, I've already, I'm taking Nebraska.

No matter what? With the points. With the points? I'll bump that at the 10 and a half. I can't do anything with this. This is my boy. I got to ride with him no matter what. Because I know in three weeks time from that moment, I'll want him to die.

I'll want Nebraska to burn down. Michigan, Nebraska. Michigan, Nebraska takes place. That's the bus. September 20th. So I'm hoping to put in some work of love for Will. So when I have to break his heart on his birthday weekend, we feel a whole lot better.

But hey, remember when I supported you, it's the Kelsey Brothers? And it won't matter to him. Look at that. Look at that. That's what Arrowhead's going to be like. Just a sea of red. Yeah. The Kansas City, they're surrounded by Nebraska fan.

That's going to be a home game. Yeah, it is. That's going to be a home game for us. When was the last time we saw Travis? A year ago. Oh, wait, no, Super Bowl. Someone in the Super Bowl. We got in a couple questions at the presser.

That's right. Yeah. That's right. I forgot. Would you hit me with? Yeah. That was something good. We'll hit you with the 40.

I hit you on you getting hawked down by a linebacker, I think. Yeah. Your yak. Like talking about your yak, how good you are with yak, but watching yourself get chased down now. You getting a little long in the tooth. You did break the record for touchdowns, I believe, for the franchise, maybe all in history and you kind of whiffed on the dunk.

Fuck, God. I'm a little lighter this year though, man. I'm gonna get up there. I'm sure you know reporters. Prez Holmes is the leader for the chiefs all-time touchdowns. I got a chance to maybe catch them, but. How far are you away? Are you away?

I don't know. Because of free age. Last time I looked, I think it was like five to ten somewhere in there. There's single digits. I got a feature this year. Yeah. What's the you're looking like? Who-hoo.

You got one year left on the deal. tell you what man. Xavier Worthy taking his game up a notch. Obviously, uh, get Rishi Rice back. I think, um, he'll be speeding.

Just the running game, get our, get our offensive line together, the Josh Simmons kid out of O State. I know you're not a big O State guy, but man, this dude is a fucking mammoth of a human being. He's a stud, man.

We will see. He's stud. He was, we were, uh, we were doing a little, um, group install in a mini camp.

Just had a little outside zone block on them. Guy put his fucking hands on me. I was like, oh shit. He's like that. Yeah, and in scout team, and he's just fucking around. I'm just like, all right, now. All right, no. Yeah, I mean.

See what this thing's talking about. What is, um, that game? I lost a lot of money on you guys. No. Yeah. No, I did. Yeah, but you've lost a lot of money. Yeah.

In the past, you had a lot of money. It still has, it's still on the cheeks. Yeah. What is, when you're going through that game and it's just going the way, I think like the yardage in the first half was tough didn't get a whole lot better not trying to be disrespectful but at what point were you like okay we're not this we're not going to be able to pull this one out you know i don't know if that ever like came in my mind it was just always just keep fucking fighting and see what happens but at the same time it got it got ugly quick and it was a guy

that shit wasn't yeah that shit wasn't too fun because i think in the when they uh when they yank their their dvs out or they're like big guys on defense i was just like fuck man i know what that sign is yeah and i mean at that point it's like you're you're still trying to like you're in the mode of like fight fight just give you give your guys and your coaches everything you got and it was just it just wasn't going our way man obviously you guys were a hell of a team but the eagles were just stacked i mean i'll give credit man those from the d line to the linebackers to the defensive backs everywhere on that football field they had guys flying around and then they they don't know if they had a tick on on what was going on or if they just kind of had the rules

set in place but it felt like in the run game and past game and they just had stuff figured out yeah and even even the stuff that they you know even when we got the right call it was like we were just a step off or timing off or you know pat was under duress and we just had to try and figure things out on the run. It was just, it was an uphill battle all fucking day. Yeah. It seemed like your game against Tampa

and a game against the Eagles are really similar. Yeah. Like the D-line 8. It was that a big vocal point going into that week or those two weeks? Yeah. Offensive line needs to,

guys, listen, here's the deal. They've got men on the other side of the ball. Yeah. We have to protect. I feel like at that point, because we had kind of went up and down with the whole tackle situation

and the offensive line situation throughout the year. And it felt like at that point when Tunei moved from guard to tackle that we had something figured out to where we could at least manage it with like chips and like make sure that we didn't put our guys in bad situations but um i mean interior outside rush they they got after us and i mean if you control the line of scrimmage and the super bowl it's going to get ugly for you yeah and both sides of the ball like their trenches go hard yeah i think

the eagles probably have the best offensive line in the entire NFL fucking mammoths mammoths and they i mean i thought there's going to be a step down with your brother they're missing this year. No. But they just kept the train rolling. No, they got bigger. They got bigger, but they were great. And it sucks.

I hate like sitting there and be like, they played a great football game because I'm sitting with you when you played in the Oh no, yeah. No, I've already, I've already kind of went down the rabbit hole. I'm just motivated for this year, man. Yeah. We got,

we got them, I think week two somewhere early and, yeah, we'll get this thing fucking rocking and rolling, boys. You definitely feel like there's more of like, you just feel a little more intense about you. Sitting on this bus compared, comparing it to last year.

Last year, I mean, vibes were high. You're obviously going to have a hell of, has had a hell of a career, but like going through that loss, and what changes if you made in the off season? I think the biggest thing is you just, you kind of refocus on, on where your,

where your attention is in the off season. I think last year, really the past like three years, I've had a lot of attention in getting, taking a step away from football to figure out, you know, what I'm doing afterwards and make sure I set that up. and I'm setting myself up for the future. I've kind of always had that mentality in the offseason,

but I took on bigger projects. This year, I kind of put all that to the side, and I'm like, man, I'm going into my last year, my contract, 13th year. I want to make this dream that I've always had the best it's ever been. And I think I failed last year in a lot of different ways from my guys on the field in terms of being a leader and just being, you know, prepared and ready to rock. and I'm motivated to fucking be accountable for the guys, man.

Pouring all that into this season, like setting all the other stuff aside, just focusing all football. Is there a little bit of mortality coming with this being your last year in Kansas City? Do you feel like this could be the last year for Travis Kelsey? I mean, it's the last one on the contract. I'm focused on this one, man. I don't know what next year is going to feel like. I don't know what I'm going to feel like in March and in April next year

when I make that decision or I try and figure. out what's next for me. But I know that I got one on the contract and I got, you know, a hell of a fucking team and we got a lot of fucking talent and I'm pumped for it. You talked about, I mean,

there was a bunch of rumors rolling around about this could be the last year, this past year. Yeah. How close were you to hanging it up? What was the Super Bowl have changed that for you? It might have made me think about it a little bit more.

I think I had a sour taste in my mouth immediately and like, man, I can't, This can't be the last game, you know. I just, I still feel like I can do it. And I kind of wanted to give myself that full focus. When I kind of looked at the year and review and how I got ready for the year and things like that. And it's not to say that I was doing it wrong. It's just when you get older, you start to figure things out differently.

Like your body doesn't react to how you used to do things. You know what I mean? You have to focus a little bit more on the preparation and, and being there and being ready. And then throughout the week, you've got to have more of a plan to get back to 100%. And I think,

thinking about all those things, it was like, I don't want to leave anything out there. I want to give it my all and make sure that I do this, you know, for the childhood dream in me. You know what I mean?

The kid in me that's like, man, I want to make this shit the best thing ever, man. You're obviously super close with the chief's organization. Is there like an open line of communication about what the future could look like? for you? If they ever asked me, I'll always tell him, you know, how I feel. Coach Reed is like a,

he's like a second father to me. You know what I mean? I've been with him for 13 years and he's helped me both on the field and off the field, become a better person, a better man, and more accountable. And on top of that, you know, Pat's my fucking family now, you know, so through that, just family atmosphere in the chiefs, I don't see myself playing anywhere else. But I do, I do trust them with everything and you know I understand that they got to make sure that they that they set themselves up for the future as well knowing guys got to get paid and and you know positions got to get filled so yeah that is what I was going to ask like could you and could you imagine yourself in a different uniform at this point now maybe if you would ask me that

maybe like a contractor two ago I'd have been like you know I'd keep it open but a contractor too go to such a crazy statement. Yeah, I mean, you've been in it for so long. Yeah. And on top of that, it's like, Kansas City is the only place I got a home. It's like, that is my home. So I'm like, I'm going in and out of Kansas City for the rest of my life.

I'll probably always have my crib there. And I just had that sense of community. I know everybody from the mayor to the fucking people that work at the local restaurants to, you know what I mean, everybody in the city. So it is home for me now. but I think I would have a tough time putting on another jersey. You're right. I don't know.

Yeah. But also, like, I mean, money is probably not an issue for you. I think there was a rumor. Hey, we still got a leverage up. Going around. I leverage up for instance. Yeah, but I think, I mean, I think. No, no, I spend a lot.

There's a rumor about $25 million, I think it was. Oh. For a commercial. Yeah, don't believe everything you read, boys. Did you see that rumor? I think so. I guess the question is, would you do a commercial for any brand

if they offered you $25 million? What are we talking about? You made your acting debut last year. Obviously, you're putting everything else on the side, but how was that experience? I know Sherm, he said he watched it and you did an incredible job. Nice.

I haven't heard that review yet. But do you, after going through that experience of, after going through that experience of acting and everything else. Like, do you see it as something that you would want to pursue when you're done? Because I think it's like a legitimate thing.

He just shot it last time he was on the show because you were talking about it. I was still actually finishing it up. And Happy Gilmore, but that's more of like a fun cameo. The other one was kind of serious. Yeah, that's where I see myself kind of focusing. It's like those fun cameos

where I'll get a role that's not necessarily, you know, my name in a movie or something like that and I'll just kind of play this. Like in Happy Gilmore, I'm a waiter. You know what I mean? Like that's a fun ass fucking role in a movie with guy Adam Sandler that I've loved my entire. Like those are like, bro. I'm fucking, I'm, I kill to do movies like that for the rest of my life.

And even if it's just like a small part like I'm in, like I'd sign up for that any day. I don't know if I'd sign up for a big TV show. Like not a very familiar character. He's in a lot of scenes and stuff like that. That's just a lot of work, man. It's a, it's a career field that I haven't gotten comfortable. in yet, especially enough to do like serious stuff. Yeah.

I think I can do like the joking stuff that, you know, we all grew up watching. Much more in your wheelhouse. Yeah. And then if you see Adam Sandler and you snow all the movies. Yeah. And he's the opportunity to be in that. So yeah, what was that like? Dude, it was insane.

I bet. It was like me. You had to be like, dude. Is Adam Sandler like one of those cats where people say never meet your heroes? Is this somebody you got out the way he was? You met him and he was the fucking best. Meet your hero. Even further than what you could have ever expected.

That juices me up so much. He was, and he was so helpful in terms of like, kind of making me feel comfortable in the, in like the scene and everything. No one, it's, it's like one of the bigger scenes in the beginning of the movie, at least I made it feel like that. You know what I mean? Like, dude, this is a serious ass fucking season. I'm getting, no, how much?

Pepper down, bro. I don't ask what they want for. It's one of the biggest scenes in the movie. It's up front. You guys be on lookout. Yeah. Yeah. That is, that's crazy.

How do you just, they just call your agents, just call you, but hey, Adam, Adam, say in the movie um yeah i forget i forget what the connection was once i kind of like threw it out there that i would i would like kill to be in a sandler movie or anything like that and like i had a happy gomore hat on on new heights one time and they were like oh man there's rumors that happy gilmore too might be coming out are you going to be in it i'm just like i fucking i quit everything right now to be in a fucking adam sandlin yeah or being happy gilmore too but i was talking to sand man and he was just he was like it took so long to get to have you go more twos because he wanted to do it right he didn't want to just he said he loved doing the movie so much and he thought the the first one was just such a

perfect movie that it had to he didn't want to disappoint anybody and this one I mean just looking at the trailers I haven't even seen all of it but just watching the trailers and shit this shit is going to be epic I can't wait to see it dude it's a little bit of part of all of our childhoods yeah I heard you refer to him as saying is that like his Is that his nickname? Sandman? Sandman? I don't know.

I just, I've always called him the same. The Sandman. When you meet him, you know, Mr. Sandler, and I speak to say, please. Sandman. I think I did call him Mr. Sandler at one point. You have to. You gotta start off with that for sure. Yeah.

I think the Sandman's where I ended up. That makes me feel like... That's the goal, right? Anytime you meet one of your heroes, like, how do I get a nickname in here? Is that what his name is in your phone? Sandman? I think it is, yeah. Yeah, I love that.

It has to be. Oh, my buddy. It's a white whale there for the bus. Oh, yeah. That's why I went for the bus. So if we haven't any connects, I, yeah. It would be sick. If we knew if we had a homie, that was.

If we knew somebody that was tight with him, they called him Sandman. And be like, yo, could you just get him on the show? Yeah, I got a couple of the homies with me. They are sports guys. You know what I don't. I don't text him. Hold on.

I would never reach out to this man. If you don't mind, hold on one second. It'd be sick. He's so busy. It'd be since we'll be cooler. is if one of our boys, we had like a bet with them and we added to the bet, if you win the bet, that they have to FaceTime Sandman.

Something, yeah. And then have him come on, or try to at least get him on the bus. I love that. Do you like that? I love that. Let's all that thought, and we'll bring it to the negotiation table.

Got you. You guys are fucking good. You guys have been having some fucking awesome guests, though. Insane. Between Jason Sadekis, Ben Stiller. LeBron. LeBron. Crazy.

Who's been your favorite one out of like the recent? I know that's tough. I'm kind of, I always think of question. I mean, I'm a Cleveland kid, watch LeBron playing fucking high school. Getting him on the show was like that Cleveland like connection. Yeah. Northeast Ohio connection, I should say. And it's just like I've known all of the people that are like in his camp for a long, long time.

So I felt like I knew who he was. And when he jumped on, it was just like, we were all just like homies for forever. That and I'd been a Cavs fan since I was like, fucking two. So wild comment about the rings, huh? What do you mean? Winning rings shouldn't define your NBA career? Yeah, I think it might be taken out of context. Also, LeBron has won a lot of rings. So I think he's just trying to look out for three, four, yeah. He's trying to look out for the guys that he might have played with that, you know, didn't win one, trying to show him some respect.

Yeah. Take the high road. Yeah. Being a good dude, good teammate. But it's all about rings for me. What's the vibe like when you're sitting with the new heights team? Like how long in advance did you think, oh, LeBron James might be coming on our show? I mean, we threw it out there like our first season.

So it took like three seasons to finally get him to pull up. It seems like he's just now started to do media because he's McAfee, right? Yeah, he's got his own thing. Now he's done you. I think he's going to come on bussing. That's TBD. That's TBD, right?

If only we knew somebody that had a connection. You'd be sick. Because if you had a bet with somebody. Yeah, that'd be sick. They can just be our guest booking team from here on now. For real. New Heights. We'll just, hey, sloppy seconds. Toss them this way.

Toss them this way. Figure out what worked, what didn't. Who's a white whale that you would love to get on that hasn't been on yet? Obviously, you've had a lot of big names, but who's somebody that you're like selfishly like, man, it would be sick to get this person on. Man, I want to get Dion Sanders on so bad. I want to talk to him about, like, the football and baseball, like, world that he was in in like the late 80s, early 90s.

And just, I don't know, just chop it out. Because he was always one of my favorite guys. I played like every sport imaginable growing up. And I always wanted to be one of those guys that played both. Play two, two sport professional athlete. No fucking chance. No shot. No shot.

I mean, he was the elite. Yeah, the story about him playing in both. had like helicopter from one yeah in the same day NFL early and then flew and to a baseball playoff game or something like that it was crazy nuts yeah I think you had a touchdown in one and a homer in the other or had a hit another only player to ever do that like that yeah

I think I personally think he's like the most athletic player of all time you think so yeah over uh Bo Jackson that's usually the argument yeah I think he'd know Bo Jackson was a freak Freak but all star

yeah Yeah. I was a little biased with the Yon because he was a cowboy. Super Bowl is Deionz-Henters. What's that? I said I was a little biased with Dionys because he was a cowboy. I love the cowboys growing up. You're a little giant's guy, huh?

Yes. Spike. Oh, yeah. Coach O'Shea. I aspired to be like Spike. Ed O'Neill. She's hit up on my dad's arm before every. Oh, I can see it, dude.

Your white whale, I feel your white whale is a little underwhelming. Like, Dion should be an easy get for you. Dude, I fucking. It probably is. like more attainable than I think it is. But I don't know, man. Who else would be? What would be through the roof?

You know who Jason would want? No idea. Jason would want like fucking Neil de Grossey Tyson or something. You get the old line there. Dude, my YouTube, my shorts are always Neil deGrasse Tyson. He's always, and he's always explaining something to me. I'm like, that shit's fucking wild.

You've seen the clip of him talking about the Titanic? he talks about the when the ship sinks in the Titanic how it's just one set of stars and they just basically copied and flipped it and it wasn't correct for that time of year that like how he like gets all that figured out it's wild and so he was a part of another movie that helped them get the correct sky for that time frame that everything it's like how do you figure that shit out that's nuts and also did they contract you in to do this or are you just doing it for the fun of it do it a quick favor. I just need to make sure this is right.

Do you be a favor with it? That's good. That's good. Yeah, he'd be a cool guest. Just smarter than everybody else, dude. Yeah, he gets it. Yeah. With, uh, you were talking about earlier about,

from a leadership standpoint, maybe not being as accountable as you want to your teammates. At what point in the season or after the season, did you realize, did you realize that you probably weren't being the best leader you could be? I mean, just reflecting. I don't think I was the best leader during the Super Bowl itself.

In terms of making plays, being able to, you know, find a way no matter what their, what defense they're playing. I've always put the accountability on myself to, you know, get open no matter what. And don't get me wrong, they were, they were doing things that, that minimize everything that I could, like, kind of manipulate. But at the same time, I still feel like I had a drop early. I had two or three routes where I didn't get separation when I needed to. and certain moments where I could have sped it up

knowing that Pat was under duress for a lot of points in the game. So I don't know, man. Just being that and then just keeping the energy and the belief alive, I don't know if I necessarily did that as well as I could have. And I think just leading up to it, making sure I got everybody's mentality ready going into the game. I just put a lot of accountability on myself to be able to beat that for the guys. How difficult is it for you to not, like, show frustration when you have a drop early? They're doing different things in coverages, so you can't manipulate them as much.

Like, when you're progressing through the game, you've been in it for so long. I've never played in a Super Bowl boat. But it's the, like, it's for all the marbles. Yeah. Like, how do you, from a mental standpoint, able to, like, combat the, okay, I had a drop? These things are not going the right way. Like, how do you take away the frustration? Yeah.

I mean, you just, you got to have that, like, I don't know, almost like that you, You either got to react in terms of like high aggression, high energy, high frustration, or which can make you uncharacteristic and make you maybe, I don't know, do something stupid after a whistle or something like that. That's what I've done in the past. Or you can try and be calm, cool, collected, show confidence, show, leadership, show, like, positive, like, reinforcement, like, around everyone on the team. And it's just every situation.

is different. As I'm getting older, I can't necessarily do a lot of the things that I've been able to do when I was a younger player. So it's creating even more frustration for me in certain times. But at the same time, I could still be that voice of reason for a lot of these young guys that are in a unfamiliar territory. Is it a scary thought a little bit when you're getting older? And some of the things you look back at some film, you're like, man, I used to be able to do that. I used to be able to fucking throw a goddamn baseball. Yeah, yeah. I'm with you. I used to be able to fucking hum it like 90, dude. I used to really have a fucking cannon over here.

Now I can't even fucking raise my fucking arm over my head like that. It's that hard? It's mad. Bring that thing up? Yeah. I can throw it up. You do with the mortality of being a football player sucks. Yeah.

And you see all these young bucks get in there. And they're like going out partying or whatever. And you're like spending a little more time in the ice tub. I don't see a lot of guys going out and partying anymore. Because you're not out. It's a good point. It's a good point. Yeah.

A lot of the younger... A lot of the younger guys, I think... I feel like I would hear it through, like, the locker room and stuff like that. A lot of guys are just, like, video game and streams. Video games are fun. You play any? I'll get on the Call of Duty every now and then. Fuck it up, yeah.

I'm a PubG guy myself. PubG? What's the fuck is that? PubG is kind of like the military version of Fortnite. Oh. Where it's like a battle royale. Oh, God. Oh, God.

My jeans were too tight. Oh, shit. I mean, it is he running after it too. Dude, I mean, oh my God. He was doing the same thing, throw it as hard as he can. I was like, dude, dude, please. I'm sorry. I know that was, that came in hot.

The shoulder looks good right there, though. Oh, buddy. I think it was the top of the mound coming down. I hadn't worked that yet. Yeah, it's the height. I get it. Yeah, the elevation of the mound. When you're over six foot, it's harder.

Yeah, well, I would know. I am over six foot. It's kind of fun to sit here. Degeneration going on right now. He's actually getting shorter as we sit here. I, uh, am I the best athlete on the bus?

Around, maybe some people are saying, you know Mitch is in the back, you're waiting. You guys can talk about your injuries. I did have 12 anchors put on my right shoulder. That's it? You know,

12 anchors. I had that twice. You had that twice? Yes. Oh, you guys still have shoulders? Wait, and I had AC separation.

What's it? Everybody's had a C. That's only, That's only, that's only getting, everybody's got the lyrane needle with the little pad on top before a game. That's rookie. That's rookie shit.

They tell you, oh, you're not going to feel on the first inch of take. You're just like, oh, this shit sucks. Hey, for those who don't know, what's an anchor? What's, what, 12, an anchor is kind of like a little, yeah. You old sutures? Oh, stitches. Yeah, like a little, yeah, like a little stitch.

You think of your shoulder, your labrum is like a clock and you have, nice. That's how many anchors you can get in. Nice. Guys like us, we have all 12 anchors. This guy pays attention. I'm fucking. restructure. Because when you hear 12, you're thinking, fuck, I'm kind of bad ass. Yeah. I was kind of

playing on some shit. I thought I was just going to get cleaned up. Maybe three or four anchors. I get out there. Like, we had to fix the whole thing. The whole thing. Yeah. I always hate the surgery talk, but they're like, hey, we'll see when we get in there, but it looks like it's just X, Y, and Z. Yeah. Every time you come out. It turns out. It was actually all of these things as well. That's what happened with my knee. That was fun. What happened your knee? Yeah, my rookie year, I had just like some discomfort. I kept doing the fucking. MRIs. I took like 10 MRIs. Everybody in the building was calling the MRI machine the Kelsey. Like, oh, you're going to get a Kelsey. All right, nice. That's tough. I'm a rookie.

Haven't even played a lot. Swear the guy. It's a little bit of discomfort. It's something's up. So I went to, I went to the guys. I'm just like, just going there scope it. They're like, all right, we'll see what happens with going there. I had like microfracture surgery. You guys know what microfracture is? I know it's a big deal. It's, uh, it's ended some careers. Um, not yours. They drill holes in your, uh, like, heartilage bones to like, to like, get blood to see through to create and rebuild cartilage. Couldn't run for like six, seven months. And then it was on like a pitch count for half this season.

Oh, and this is your rookie year going into your second? Going into my second. I didn't play, I played one snap by rookie year. And it was a blocked field goal. I was on the field goal team. And I only went in because somebody got hurt and I just happened to be dressing that day. Buddy. Dude.

How long did you think your career was going to be a death point? I went in there supposed to be the left tight end on fucking field goal. And I'm like, my knee. I tapped the right tight end because we were on the right hash. So the rush was definitely coming from the field. So I'm like, hey, you're trying to take that left side for me? My knee. And he just being a good teammate.

I was like, yeah, dude, I got you. I went over to the right side. Heard that, do, do, I'm just like, fuck. Turned around, balls on the ground. I'm like, fuck, get it. hobbling around. I see guys jumping on. I'm kind of like, fuck my knee.

Get out of there. Fuck. You never, everybody's like, we wasted a fucking job. So the, yeah, the next. Two weeks out of that, I got it. I got scoped and got through in a brace for six months. So you go through your rookie year, play one snap. Second year, you're on a pitch count.

Are you thinking at any point? Maybe I'm just not built for this. Are you kidding me? The entire rehab, I'm just like, God damn. I'm never going to see this happen. You're calling your brother being like, how the fuck? Yeah. He's just being all tough and gritty.

He's like, you just got to run through it. Exactly. That's going to be so disappointed. Yeah. So just take the fucking ibuprofen they're giving you and just get back out there. Yeah, I wish it was just ibuprofen. Sure, we get it, dude. You got the photo pulled up.

Jesus! That was your x-ray, right? He's like, keeps zooming in on it like as you guys are talking. Jesus. It was like always playing a bit while we're also doing a show. Does that you? No. No, it's true.

down to the knees. Congrats. Holy shit. That's big time. Growing up was there, who was the favorite? Was Jason the favorite growing up? 100. He was fucking honor student, fucking did football.

Hockey was like all league and all in like three different sports, never missed a game. Like music genius was it was on like the orchestra, the jazz, the fucking, he fucking did every. Yeah. Dude, he used to get like 30 tackles a game and at halftime fucking be in the marching band. He was, but he was like the most feared guy in the school.

No shit. Played that trumpet like a mother ball. Did you have, did you? Baritone sacks. My fault. Did you? I had the trumpet and it was, did you have resentment?

One for you. That shit was waxed. Did you have resentment towards him? No, fuck no. There was never like, oh, he's the fucking favorite. You know, he's kind of doing my thing too. He's the best. You know what I mean?

And then he kind of comes back around. Right. He's winning Super Bowls and all probably like, yeah, I'm pretty fucking. fucking good, too, guys. Oh, you got, how many got? No, I followed him.

I followed him to Cincinnati. Okay. So you guys were like that. You guys never had a little Tiff. What? My brother used to beat my ass. Have you seen, how has he gotten used to the retired life? Has he had a good transition?

He's thriving. He's thriving life, no doubt, but I'm wondering inside ball. Like, if he's had like, hey, stay as long as you can't, Adam Sandler, right? Billy Madison, he's driving the kids, stay as long as you can. Type of talk with you. he's like, hey, by the way, on the other side of this, it's incredible. No, he, um, we haven't really talked about it like that now. I don't know.

I think he's, he's thriving in, in the decision that he made. Obviously, there was probably something that we haven't talked about. It's probably something there that the Eagles went back to the Super Bowl and they won it. Yeah. There's got to be. Any ball player that made that decision would have that, I feel like. But at the same time, he's around his four girls. enjoying life and being around the fam and doing a bunch of crazy shit during the football season.

And I don't know, he's just enjoying it. I don't see him like regretting any decisions. That's awesome. Because once you walk away, man, it's tough. You see a lot of guys that leave and you're like, that have an identity crisis for the longest time. Because you used to be the man. And then a lot of guys just go back to doing nothing. I mean, we've all seen a lot of college guys that we played with go down.

that road a lot of guys that we played with in the league do that and that's why i kind of always wanted to make sure i set myself up for something you know to at least immediately get into and then always have that connection back to the game some i don't know some guys just kind of step away and they never come back around the the buildings or they never you know create those uh relationships with people that you know will keep will help keep them around the game or around everything like that when you're trying when you're trying out all those new things figuring, okay, what could I do next? What was the biggest thing that got you out

your comfort zone? Whether it be like SNL, the acting. The serious acting. The serious acting? Yeah. What level of discomfort was that? Like, were you like halfway through it being like, I know this is not for me?

No, not necessarily that it wasn't for me. I mean, I was a part of a really good cast. I think I got a lot of help and a lot of pointers from them. So they helped me at least make me feel comfortable in the moment. But at the same time, just like preparation-wise, like I'm so prepared for an NFL game. Like in my career, I get an entire week to figure out a scheme, how I'm going to attack somebody, how I'm going to like handle certain specific situations.

And when you go into acting, it's just... Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers. And guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, name? Huge news. We created our own podcast called, Hey, Jonas. We invented a podcast?

And I just feel like I got to find that, like, I don't know, that professionalism before the, like, the cameras are on. And I just hadn't found that yet. You just hanging out on the trailer. I'm just like going over the lines.

Yeah, like, as long as I know these, How many times am I going to read this same line and think that I, you know what I mean? I got, I got to find the. Then you finally do one that's good. And then directors like, hey, let's get one just to be safe. And you're like, God damn. Did he not like it? Just tell me what you.

Yeah, yeah. If you don't like it, just give me a fucking corner. I get coached hard. Just fucking coach me. That was my entire, every single like director that I met on the, on the, what do you call on scenes and everything like that? I was just telling. I was like, coach me up. I'm here to be coached.

If I suck, tell me I suck and tell me how I can be better. I'll take all criticism. I don't give a fuck. How often are you practicing your lines by yourself in front of a mirror? Not necessarily in front of a mirror, which, gonna add to the professionalism, get to see facial features, to see how your body's reacting. I was big on like a scene would happen.

And if the directors were like watching the scene over to see if they like it or not or see what we could do different, I would like hurry up and go over there to watch them film real quick. But I don't know. It's still like, I don't know. It's still early and like

just not I don't know I don't feel like I grasped the acting world yet Yeah seeing him videotaping himself just by himself

And I'm sure I think like the features And like okay I can kind of move a little differently here I'm sure You definitely feel like A Jamoke doing some of it

for sure Like you'd feel out of place Yeah I'm sure some of the actors are sitting there being like we've worked our whole lives Gone to theater school done all this

And this guy scores a couple of touchdowns Just to show up be a part of it i felt those eyes you felt you have to i felt those eyes a little bit the people that are all about the art like this guy he has no idea he doesn't yeah he's going to this is a game to him this is life to us they do slam poetry on the weekends that you is that it right there oh yeah that's you oh yeah it's eddie did you grow that beard it's fast eddie or was that the beard's real hair no yeah that is awesome that is fucking badass what about s and l

How nerve-wracking was that? The monologue standing up there? That felt a little, like I said, the silly stuff, the funny stuff, the comedy, I just feel so much more comfortable. There was still like a sense of like, I need to be a professional here. I don't want to like, I want to take advantage of this, but like, I don't want to, I want to have fun doing it, but I don't want to look like a loser doing this. Like, I want to make them respect like my approach and how I'm like taking it serious.

he is. And, but it was just a fun roller coaster, man. You're there all week, fucking up till two, three in the morning every day, just trying to like knock stuff out, do some of the, the pre-recorded stuff. And, yeah, that was insane. That was a crazy ride. It's one of the coolest things I've ever seen. That was fun.

The SNL thing is one of the more badass situations. Have you, you've been to SNL? I have not been. I have not hosted. I have not been any part of it at all other than just watching. Nice. Nice. My dad had a Ford Expedition

and he had the best of Chris Farley, S&L. That was the only DVD in the car. Van down by the river, baby. Are you kidding me? And I watched the hell out of that. Burned that.

Were you a big Beverly Hills Ninja guy growing up? I was not. You were not? Black Sheep guy, Tommy Boy guy. But Beverly Hills Ninja. Those two. Classics.

Yeah, classics. Absolutely classics. Those were, those are outstanding. What were the writer's rooms like? So that was, the writer's room.

The writer's rooms were fun because you're just getting pitched ideas. The table reading, for a guy they can't really read that well. Same. Preach. It was kind of a fuck situation. And I felt like I was just like trying to like get through the reading instead of actually actually like acting it out and giving it a voice and giving it a character and things like that. Like I was just focused on just don't fucking skip this line. Yeah.

You know what I mean? I, brother. So when it comes to reading difficulties. I will be on that side of the aisle with you my entire life. More of an audible, more of an audio guy. Right. That's why they make audio books now for guys like us. There you go.

You read it? I'm listening. I'm listening quite a bit, actually. No, the table read was the hardest fucking part. You know, he needs to get a cameo in his tires. That would be legendary. That'd be up your alley right there. Are you kidding me?

I'd fucking kill to be in that. Have you watched the second season? I have not started it. Shane's so fucking good. He absolutely killed it. his last time my SNL too. I saw some rumors that like Shane put up a shitload of money for the first season.

Everyone was like, don't do it. And he just bedded himself and it became like a massive hit the way it is. Allegedly. This is like skimming through YouTube shorts, right? So I don't have anything to verify this.

But the fact that he was at the ascension he was making what he was making and he took a risk like that, if that is true, it was wild. Yeah, that's bad. Now he's in fucking Madden. Just crazy. Yeah.

Crazy. I'm sorry. What? Vince Vaugh. Yeah, he's going to be in the new Madd movie, the new John Madden movie. Oh, I thought you're... Can we say that? Yeah, that's...

Yeah, they put it out. Okay, cool, cool, just making sure. I was... I was like, what the... I could definitely see Shane. No, the new... College football game. Be like a center for Notre Dame.

With Christian Bale, Nicholas Cage. Like a big time. Big time movie. Oh, yeah. Nicholas Cage dressed as John Madden right now. Yeah. It's fucking hilarious. Wow.

He's rocking some of those pants. You just... Your Game Day pants, dude. We used to have some of those slacks. Pleaded right down the middle. High wasters. Fastball. He had Vince Vaughn on there on the tire season two.

So, that's my, if I could have anybody sitting in that seat, love having you. You're incredible. But I would switch you out for Vince Vaughn. Are you kidding me? I would get up and ask him,

please take my seat. I let him take my seat. I let you guys actually do the show. So I feel like I was a little bit harder. Just have him reenact a couple of wedding crash lines for us. Yeah. And I'm sure he hates it. But I would definitely be that guy.

Old school. It's like, huh? I'm not even wearing a belt. Am I right? Phenomenal finger foods. How do you think I keep it up? Slick. Yeah.

Yeah, dude. That's my goat. That is my goat by far. Look at him. Swingers. Vegas, baby. Vegas. Great movie.

Just pure Vince Vaughn, too. Pure Vince Vaughn. What else we got going? I don't know. What else is new? I don't know. Dude, was there a remember. your answer's probably going to be bullshit

but um I got a few of those in my pocket there are moments out of the year last year where it's just like we're kind of getting lucky here at the end of the game I mean I mean you guys had so many games where you're winning so many different ways

you know initially that was the craziest one the Denver block field goal crazy in Arrowhead but then you think about it you watch it on film you see what they've been doing on film on that side of the line.

It's like it's kind of not looking. You are not sitting in a field goal meeting. No. You hit no way you sit in a field goal meeting. So watch what they do on. I'm listening. I'm listening to the TV the next day and be like, see guys,

is what we talked about all week. And I guess I did talk about that. This is why we finish the game, right? This is why we finish the game. Shit, I guess is why we do do it. That's crazy. My knee, my knee. For a guy that voluntarily went to the other side.

It's like, I know this rush is coming this way. Hey, bud, you get that. Take this one. Take this one. Take this one. Love. Yeah. You guys did win in some crazy fashions. Yeah, it was pretty, it was insane. Still, manage the Super Bowl. I could not believe it. It was crazy. What was the juice like leading up to the Buffalo game? Because there's obviously so much storyline behind Mahomes, Josh Allen, the games that you guys have had in the past. Do you feel guilty to him away from Josh Allen's career? No. No, it's a great competition. He's got his fucking fair share of wins. It's just come during the season, yeah.

I mean, that fourth quarter, I mean the fourth down in the regular season, those are still like heroic moments. Yeah. I don't know. I got a fuck tonne. I got a dude. Hey, be real.

Be real. Man. They got the first down. Can't let it to find you, dog. They got the first down on that sneak. Nah. Be real. Nah.

Be real. What else we got? Let's talk shit to Travis for 20 minutes. I mean, that was a first down. I thought so. Also, the way they do the push is ridiculous. If you guys think it was, I'm going to go over two gaps and then go down the middle.

And they did it twice. Nobody pushing him. They did it twice. You got to push that tush. Yeah. Got to push it. You got to get in there. You got to take advantage of the rules, man.

Let's talk about your guys' four minute. Why do we throw it so much? We like the ball in Pat Mom's hands. No doubt about it. He's a great decision maker. Great decision maker. Stud. Soon to be a guest on Buston with the boys, correct?

What? I didn't know you were coming on Pat? Hell yeah. I'm just warming this seat up for you, bud. There's a couple of steps. you're one of them. If there's only somebody that we knew. Oh shit, for what?

I mean, we got a lot of ass out of you. Cincinnati, Nebraska. Is the bus going to be in? The bus won't be there. However, we will be there with cameras. With cameras. All right, there you go. There's your chance.

We saw at the Super Bowl. We won the Super Bowl media days. I asked Pat, I go, hey, since Bus with the Boys is no longer with Barstool Sports, would you come on? He goes, oh, definitely helps your chances. That went viral and Dave chewed my ass about that. So I need to find a different way to word it. I find a different way to word that conversation

because I would love to have Pat on. Love Barstool. But what is this? Can we get Jason on? We have a gift for him. Jason's coming on when Nebraska beats Cincinnati. That's already part of the, that's put a bow on that, shirm. But the bet is going to be in the off season, right?

should be should be like it would be nice just to get Jason on just like solo before they come on collectively right so we get Jason on and then the office is and we get them both on yeah along with

Adam Sandler Patrick Mahomes LeBron James LeBron James I'm just going to make sure I shoot the text out as I leave here shoot the text on a group chat there we go

Yeah Hey, Sandman It's what an introduction of the boys Oh, McConaughey Huge fans Have you a McConaughey on the bot on New Heights? That would be an awesome one man You get him to talk some fucking ball

always uh i've always like i feel like impersonated you know guys they call the games and stuff like that growing up and um i don't know i thought it would always be fun you just jump in a random clip and you commentate it for us real quick you don't want to do that i don't like no You want to work through some improv here? That's not, yeah. Do a table read? That's what it felt like right there. I just feel like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I would get, no, no, I would get fucking, no.

Yeah, I, go and compensate this one. I love your heads at, but I feel like the preparation involved for calling a game, like truly sitting in the booth, color competition, it's got to be so. Player names. Player names is where I would get fucking ruined. The fact that they get those people and be able to go out, what impresses me the most is like hockey, hockey, hockey or basketball. because that ball is just moving around Pucks moving around everywhere. Yeah.

And they're able to just go, go, go, go. Michael Jordan's getting in the scene. Oh, I know. Is that confirmed? Is he in the, and he's, he's not just doing like what Barkland them doing? Yeah, pretty much like that. Oh, all right.

I'm still sure to see his take on it off. Yeah. I know. You know he'll sling it. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't, if you're Michael Jordan, why do it?

Like you're a billionaire He's probably bored Golf every day Brother you've had a lot of time To be not be bored Like you're in your late 50s now right Yeah at least It's like

I don't know Isn't NBC? I have no clue NBC's got it God Oh one of our our newer busing members, Clay Matthews.

I only overheard the story, but can we get that when you first played against him? When he fucking made me feel like I was gonna get my ass fucking killed. Yeah. I mean, it was that 2000 is that first year playing. So it wasn't 13, it was 14, but it was like my first couple games playing. And I had like maybe 10 catches up to this point in my career. And I'm going into Lambo and I'm thinking, this is Lambo. This is my moment.

is where I'm gonna fucking, I'm gonna, people are gonna know me after this. Yeah. And I'm all hyped up and fired up to play. This I think it was 14, it might've been 15. Either way, I see Clay Matthew, I'm just like, oh shit, that's fucking Clay Matthews. His arms are way bigger in person than they are on TV

and they are fucking enormous on TV. And it's like the backside of a fucking outside zone and I'm chasing them down. I kind of give him a hit and I'm like, yeah, motherfucker. and he stops, squares out to me, he says, don't fuck it ever fucking talk to me. I'll fucking kill you.

Or something, something along the lines, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I'll fucking kill you. And I was just like, couldn't even say anything after that. I'm just like, dude,

I thought we were just playing ball. I thought we were just having a fun time. I thought we were just having a good time, man. Go to my knee, my knee. Talking a little shit. Ah, ah,

ah, ah. Ah. That is wild. I'll fucking kill you comment. It's thrown around a lot in those 60 minutes. Yeah. It's thrown a lot.

A lot. Have you ever had any other moments like that with a different player? James Harrison. I think it was same year. Same year. And he had the, he had the visor on. The dark visor.

And it was, it was like the backside of a run. Jamal Charles is fast as fuck. He's already out the gate. And I'm just kind of like holding him. I'm like, yeah, he can't get off the block.

And he just stares at me. Doesn't say anything. I kind of like go like this to see if he's really staring at me. And his fucking eyes follow or his head follows a little bit. And I'm just like, what? My bad. like three plays later

I'm on the line of screaming like looking into the ball he's outside backer kind of fucking around with like number two three by one set and he just times it up and smokes me

on the like times up the snap and everything that come off the ball wow just absolutely blindsided I'm like getting up with like my fucking head still trying to figure out what the fuck just happened

plays I absolutely fuck the entire play Alex Smith sees the snap sees what's happening he's like fuck I got to get out of the pocket and he just starts running around and to drive and I'm just kind of looking around I look over at him

he's just staring at me with the fucking visor on again I'm just like not saying a thing and I'm just like he's fucking killing somebody for sure yeah yeah dude I played him my rookie year on Monday night football first play the game with your pick six

but before the game started all the office line I'm gonna say hey I know you like to chatter a little bit don't talk to this guy don't say a word to him just leave him alone hopefully he like stays asleep during the game but it's like Monday night football I'm hyped up, I'm juiced up, I'm ready to make a name for myself.

So, replays in the game, something happens. I'm like, I'm fucking, I'm here all day type, whatever, whatever dumb ass comment I make, we're all fucking day. And he doesn't say a word to me. And then like, he kind of lines up in a four and I go, I'm like, oh, I'm going to cut off. This dude's so fast. And I go to cut him off. And I go to cut, no, I go to put an arm up to get a, start going to linebacker in a C block.

He drops down to the ground and just grabs my ankle and starts gator rolling. No. Yes, starts gator rolling me. And right then and there, I thought, okay, yeah, it's a, it might be over for me. It might be over for this conversation the rest of the game. But he was, he's got that fucking move too. He, like, puts his arm in and uses your leverage to spin you around. It's crazy.

Because you look at him and you're like, yeah, he's definitely like, he's a beefcake. There's no doubt about it. Like, he's got a lot of muscles on it. But he's so short, you're like, I'll be able to handle this. No way. It's very hard to handle that. That is very hard to handle that. No sacks.

But it was a hard game. Nice. Then you see him on Instagram, just pushing those sleds and the plates are like... Plates are falling over, hitting him in the head. Doesn't even matter. He's just running through the whole time. He's got a bendy bar with 405 on it, reverse gripping it like this. Brother, you are retired.

Yeah. What are you out of here chasing? You saw his comment about the 100 men versus gorilla? Yeah, two James Erisons. Yeah, he's like two. They're like, why two? One to film. One to film it.

Look at this. That's pretty good. What's he out of here chasing? 1800 pounds No way God bless He's got to be on that TRT or something right You might have the strongest

Achilles of all time That Achilles needed that NBA this year Fuck gotta be on something Gotta be on something right I mean now for sure Yeah But when he played He was undrafted

You ever see the interview? Have you seen the interview Of him like I think it's like his first couple of years In the league or whatever And a guy sits down And he's like So talk to me about the combine he goes uh you i didn't go to the combine he goes oh we'll talk to me about draft night he was like

you he's like he's like i wasn't drafted and the guy's like oh i guess i don't know you he takes the microphone off and just leaves and you just hear the reporter be like i'm sorry this fucking guy they had him at fullback jesus yeah that's insane bro like is have you seen a more intimidating figure than him on no way that's him that's him no what 16 with the neck roll Oh, massive necroel Look at those pads

Look that used to be fucking the that used to be media day yeah isn't that fucking nuts we're gonna have you jump up we're gonna get some photos of you in the air what's the most

wild all field story that your mother hasn't heard that she would be shaking her head at listening to this right now I don't know I think my mom's heard them all like an oldie that you might bring up now that it's you know years and years back

I got nothing I can share, man. They're all deep, they're all deep down there. Never get brought back up. Any close running with the law or where you kind of came out unscathed? No, I've always been good with the law, man. I'm a criminal justice major at the University of Cincinnati, so I understand the law. I knew how to stay out of jail, you know.

Some strategy. You are polished. Yeah. You are polished. I was like, listen, I'm not going to know how to read, but I'm no how to stay out of jail. No doubt. I think if you had to pick one or the other, that's the one you pick. No doubt about it.

So, never went to jail, huh? Oh, you son of a bitch. What is that? You're going to bring up that. What is this? You're going to take me right week. I thought we were done talking to Super Bowl. It was fire.

Any old photos that you look back in? You're like, ah, that wasn't. Fucking everything. The worst thing I ever did was the dating show. Oh. Catching Kelsey was the fucking worst thing I ever did. Why? It didn't.

I don't know if it's, it didn't set me up for anything. It was, I didn't realize. what reality TV really was. And it's just what the experience was, that's not even my body. Set you up for slander. You know what I mean? Yeah.

Well, not even that. It was just, I don't even think anybody watched it. It was just 50 women from 50 states. This is after your rookie year. So this is after the, my knee, my knee. This is yes. Look at that knee. Look at that knee.

Go get it Kelsey. MRI. Go get it Kelsey. Everyone's question. and why they drafted you. This is it. I was like, yeah, I'm having fun. I'm having fun.

I'm having fun. And then I was like, oh, shit, everybody is going to be able to see this forever. Like, God, damn it. They're all quite, everybody in the organization is kind of like, is Kelsey going to work out? Like, he was kind of injured. He's got this fake little knee injury. He's on here doing reality TV. Do you think he cares about the game?

Yeah. What is that first team meeting like after the show airs? I mean, I was getting smoked all. Season for that, yeah. Yeah. That's fun, though. I mean, it's locker room banter. It's all fun.

Yeah, but if you get on the field, drop a pass or something like that, be like, probably should have done that. I forget what year. I think I think I had a pretty solid year after that. So I still showed up. So it wasn't like I wasn't being accountable. It was just being like, hey,

how about we fucking figure out something else out to do? How about we figure something else else? So was that not renewed for a second season? No. Even if they asked me to do it again, I would be like, hell no. How soon after that were you like, I'll never do this shit again? About halfway through.

Oh, no. I was filming and I was like, I'm in over my head right now. I think there are a lot of good personalities on the show. That one girl had a nice biceps. A lot of people trying to, you know, make it big in old Hollywood. They said 50 from each state. It was more so like 50 from L.A. that can tell you they have a relative that lives in another state.

No shit. It was hilarious. Yeah. That's just wild. and your agent said do it um yeah i said no to it about five times we have any word on battle camp season two i haven't heard anything yet i do i'm i showed you that text today oh you did i don't think we can talk about that yet though i don't think we can publicly talk about that is it in your contract that you can't talk about it i don't want to mess it we got to get ahead got to get

No, it has not officially Greenlit a second season of battle camp Did you watch any of the battle camp? I didn't catch it now Oh, widely expected to be renewed Due to a strong reception I don't know that

You guys watch Catching Kelsey? I don't have a fucking chance. You didn't watch my show? I see the clips that come out on the internet every now and then. Yeah? Yeah. It's crazy. You didn't watch any of Battle Camp?

No. Can you give me a favor? Yeah. When you get home, just go to Netflix. Okay. Type in Battle Camp. Gotcha. Play the show.

That's fucking go. I don't care if you even don't watch it. You just walk away. Go make yourself some food. But I need those views. I need you to go rip those. I'll get in there for you. That'd be outstanding.

Look at that. Dude, look at that Jack. Come on. You like that jacket. Thrive you, you're killing it. Yeah. How'd you like that? It was definitely different.

I liked it a lot. I would definitely do it again. Nice. But the location and it was like an hour to and from one way. So it was like two hours of travel every single day. It was a lot. I was away from my family. So I think if we do a season two, if I can bring my family and do all that, then I'm in.

Nice. Because it is, it's not a heavy lift. And it is a lot of fun to see how that world works. which I really enjoyed. Fuck yeah. Got to vote. Got to vote when it comes out. Sure.

July 7th. Yeah. Dude, last year when we were here, there's like obviously all the hype. You guys just won a Super Bowl. Your relationship is very fresh. And you're just on, you're, you become an A-list celebrity. What are some things that it's been over a year since we've seen you that you're like, I miscalculated this a little bit as far as like how much exposure, how much publicity do you get?

everywhere you walk. Yeah, it's just the being, I don't want to say being. It's just the paparazzi. That's probably the only thing I didn't really grasp until you're in it. That's probably the craziest part though. Like I'm just playing golf and all of a sudden in the trees

there's a fucking guy with a camera and he's like. Yeah, we're in a gilly suit. Yeah, I'm like, oh shit. Like I got to go to the restroom now. I can't just go over here and take a piss. Right. I can't just slug this beer right now. Be polite.

It's got to get frustrated. It's got to get frustrated. Never been ashamed of slamming beers. I just don't want my meat on page six. You know what I mean? It's like. Page six meat is the phrase. You know what I mean?

Like you got to go to the restroom. This is like the first season where she's not touring. Yeah. And she'll be at a lot of the, she'll be at a lot of the Kansas City games. Yeah. I mean, she tried to get to as many as she could last year and she gave him to a lot so yeah we'll have to you're going to concerts and

stuff too you guys are just all over yeah I don't have fun with it man I have being a couple dude you already know it's it gets thrown out there as it's like we're trying to seek attention every now and then but it's like we're just enjoying life and and having fun going to hockey games yeah kind of introducing her to some of some more of the sports world that uh that she has really stanley cup yeah that was fun man fucking hell of a game Yeah. You get a fucking pulled goalie, fucking last second fucking five on six and score a goal with like four seconds left.

That she was epic. Yeah. Hockey's one. And overtime hockey in the playoffs. Yeah. The fan base is wild when we were at, um, not the Super Bowl, the draft. Remember when we went up on top of the, the butt light thing and this family came over there wanting to get a photo, but the wife, the lady was kind of like she approached me.

She's like, yeah, I know who you are. I don't, I don't really, I don't really like your stuff. And she kind of hits me with like the little Swifty thing. And I'm like, what happened? Like what's going on? I'm a big fan of you guys. She's just like, you know, you just did a couple things that. And I'm just thinking, is it just the trolling of the Chiefs?

Like, are you just kind of a Chiefs fan now? And you've seen me troll the Chiefs? Because I'm thinking, what the fuck did I do? That was wild. It was weird, right? She was like 45 and just stood on business. Yeah, stood on business. I was like, look, I'm the same.

We're on the same bucket team. Like, do I want you guys to win the Super Bowl? No. I still love my boy Trave. Come on up down. Yeah, 45-year-old white women. They're the most... They will stand 10 toes down on anything.

She let me know, too. She let me know. So she's watching. I'm sure she might be watching because we got travel on. Yeah. Why is he going on their show? Dude. Tideon, you?

Yes, sir. Dude, is this... How much bigger can it get? It blows my mind. It's crazy how big it's got. We raised over, I think, 900,000 last year alone for charities. That's wild. It's just dope that we can.

keep getting like a lot of the main guys in the tight-end community. Like George is up in that thing every single year. Greg is obviously there are the ones hosting it. And it's just cool to see 80 tight ends in the NFL come together for a weekend. It blows my fucking mind. Hang out. You guys have created, like pioneered your own like less and less position group. Football.

Like you guys were. Yeah. Yeah, dude. I saw on the, it's only kind of one day on the field. I'm struggling out there day two. I am like, I am leaking bud lights. And I am just trying to figure out how I'm going to explain a route concept. Yeah.

I pull up, I pull up absolutely shit face from the night before. And I, and Greg comes up to me and says, all right, Travis, you got 30 minutes. I'm like, 30 minutes of what? Yeah. Oh, of course. Yeah. I was like, fuck. Talking about route concepts while you're literally just draining.

You're drained. All right. Here we go. What are we going to do? It's crazy. break out some cones tight ends you Greg and George have be admitted a whole like a wholesome name like you put tight ends on the board well it's I feel like and you guys can attest to this a lot of the tight ends are like uh whatever you need I'm here for the good time like I'm a

hard work one of the hardest workers but at the same time I'm here to have some fucking fun I feel like naturally that's where the tight end world is so you get those guys from every single team and everybody's just kind of bringing, when you bring them together, it's just like a big kicket. And sure enough, when you're getting like starting tight ends from all over the place,

it feels like it's like an all-star, like atmosphere, like an all-star weekend atmosphere, a pro-bowl atmosphere. And you start to kind of, I don't know, it's really like taken off until like one of my favorite, like, three days before the season even starts. Shit's fun.

And then it doesn't matter where you're out on the roster, like any of the younger tight ends that come in, it's like you see the culture and community that you guys have built. Yeah. And it's just like, I don't know. If I was a young guy, I'd be walking away feeling like, oh, man, it is sick to be a part of this.

Yeah. And it's reassuring because the shit in the building can get so tedious and, like, focused and, like, so serious. And when you had George up there, you know, making jokes about, you know, what he's doing or you see me out here just, like, laughing about how I got locked up on a play. It's like, you can, you see that, all right, everybody has these ups and downs, but you can still have fun doing this shit. Yeah. 100%.

With the, how did national tight end day come about? That's like a real thing that's celebrated now. Yeah, I think that, I think that's through George. George is the, he is tight in you. His family, he lives here in Nashville, his family. So many players I feel like move here just to go train at that barn. Dude, it's epic. It's epic.

And that's a fucking hell of a setup. He's not over there. He's a hell of a setup. But yeah, I think his family helps like run it. I know Claire helps a lot with the significant other. and it's just he he's embodied kind of the the fun aspect of titan you and like what it means to be a tight end and how much you can enjoy doing it but still being like a tenacious motherfucker yeah yeah i don't think i've ever seen somebody have more fun playing football than him dude so he's the best

he is the best is there a young george out there that you could see carrying the the tight end flame just personality wise that even have to be obvious talent's crazy I don't think there's another George out there. No, not in terms of like personality. There's only one. Yeah, there's only one of those guys. You got to be you got to be bat shit crazy and like football smart. Yeah.

I just haven't found, I haven't seen anybody like that. We got shocky. We got shocky this year. I haven't met him. How about that? Haven't met him yet, man. Fucking pumped. Yeah.

He was one of my favorite guys. When I moved the tight end, I was like, too, to be sweet if I could have the intimation. that shock he had on the field. Just dream of throwing a somebody else's helmet. Look at this dude, man. Get hit over the middle. The locks coming out. The dude, are you kidding me?

I mean, that's all time. He's so badass. So badass. You want to him with the Bud Light question? Yeah. Travis Kelsey. Anybody would do anything for a Bud Light. Okay.

What is something that you would do anything for? Can't say family. Got three Super Bowl rings. You got it all. Happy Gilmore. You got it. Part of Happy Gilmore. done a lot

I would say man god damn everything just screams win another Super Bowl I would do anything for I would do anything I'm lame

you guys have such fucking hard questions every time I come on here hard this stuff one you hit me with one last time I was sitting here fucking silent as fuck it's okay

sometimes the viewer needs a break do anything for the best part is we got editing power too so we can just make it seem like you had one ready to go

what was George's his answer I think he was a Super Bowl oh because y'all asked like would you go to prison for a year yeah if you got the one

single rule hmm I go to prison um I mean oh you do anything for a good time Kelsey is known for saying

he did anything for a good time. I'm here for a good time, yeah. Per chat, GPD. Yeah. Can't always believe chat GPT. I looked up a few of those. Man, I would say, I mean, I'm just going to go Super Bowl.

I just want to, I want to end this season without that fucking sour taste in my mouth. So I'd do anything for, to be on the other side of the mountain. Again. Yes. That's wild. You already have three. It's kind of selfish. No.

Yeah. If anything, I think it's a little. Like you remember 2019 when you took a Super Bowl opportunity away from me? I mean, it was a good game, though. You would do it, though? Yeah. You do anything? It was a beautiful day in Arrowhead.

Huh? You remember after the game dabbed me up? Hey, bro, great to see you. I didn't say great to see. I say great game. Great to see you having a great game. You're trying to be homies. Yeah.

Which I did appreciate in love. Yeah. But also, you took something from me. No, I didn't. I'll never get it. I might have. I took it more from him than I ever took him. What did you take from him?

What did you take from him? What did you take from me? What do you mean? He played like two games his old career in the playoffs. Yeah, we played against, I was never even on that. Well, I guess the Ravens. Ravens, I wasn't on the Ravens when they went. When we played the Ravens, you were up in the suite.

Oh, it's right. You were up in the suite filming me being a demon on kickoff. That's right. We had to resurface that video, too. I took a bit. This is the year I had my ACL torn And I was taking a video of every snap Will took

And he think he touched Three people the entire game He's out there running around He was it was like Covering kickoff He's all touchbacks Oh yeah He just do the end zone first

He's in the sideline Daving up A.J. Brown I'm just in a sweet A pun I think the fair thing Yeah dude Yeah Super Bowl would be nice

Be good What would you do For a four Super Bowl What would you like I think is he would do anything to have a thousand yard season, get this franchise touchdown record, and cap it off of the Super Bowl, only to sail off into the sunset and not meet football again. Yeah, with a focus on Super Bowl, yeah.

Yeah, but a highlight. That would be nice. Like, those are your minors, the 1,000 yard season, the record. Yeah. But your major. I stopped throwing, I stopped throwing the yards in there. I just want to fucking get does. You stop throwing them in there because you failed to get the consecutive 1,000?

No. You're like, all right, fuck the yards. Well, I mean, I chose not to play that game. Oh, that's right. That's right. It just isn't about the yards for me anymore. It used to be. I used to fucking want to get 1,000 yards every year, every single year.

Like, that was like the milestone that you were elite in the league, especially at the tight end position. Yeah. But then I just, like, it's more important to get dubs. I feel like getting that message to the teammates was way more important. It's very easy to say that when you're a first. ballot hallfamer when you're a travis hay's in the barn yards don't call it quits right now five years from now eight seasons a thousand we're doing your induction speech my boy travis he did it

yeah if you need us phone call away because you're going to do a lot for us so we're just like you know brother we're available you know we love you we'll do that give you a hell of an introduction but it is a hell of uh luxury to sit there and i'm not worried about yards like your legacy is cemented regardless of what happens this season. And that's got to be a badass feeling. Yeah, but it's still, the taste in my mouth from the last game is still. That is a true athlete. I can't.

I can't. I don't feel comfortable. You know what I mean? Can't. Wanted the paranoid survive. That's all I got. That's all I have. That was my bar for the day.

Travis, this was great. We'll see you August 28th. August 28th, boys. Pre-game. Yeah. little pre-game presser. We'll get the stair down going. This fucking go.

And, yeah. Go ahead, finish that thought. No. Fish a thought. He's going to know. He's going to know after the first quarter. He's going to know after the first drive. The first quarter?

He's going to know. Come on, man. Can't come at us like that. I'm going to pull out. He's going to look at me on the sideline after the score on the first drive. What's your, what? I'm going to pull out a magnum. I'm going to look at it and I'm going to throw in the trash game back.

We don't need one. I thought of raw dog. And they pull out a can of Vaseline. Yeah. Don't eat that. Yeah. But they pull out a row spark. We don't eat it right now.

We do need that. We do the row sparking. Do the row spark in. What's you guys like, are you guys a good, like, passing team? We're going to be a good passing team. We're going to be a good running team. We're going to be solid on defense. We're a little lighter in the ass because we lost a couple.

Oh, that's the last thing. You'd see that. Yeah. We lost a couple big dogs in the middle. See, that's where we... But we have a better offensive line. Dylan Raola, another year in the system. You know his old man, Dominic Raola.

This is a kid who comes into the system. He knows every check. He knows every past protection that there is. He knows that a check at the line of scrimmage. Is this true? He's got weapons on the outside. Yeah. Dominic Raola?

Yeah. 13 years in the league, 12, 13? All pro? No, I'm talking about his son. Dylan. Yeah, that's his boy out there. Yeah. And he's on the same level mentally?

He's on a, yeah, he's on a level mentally. I was talking to the OC and we were, you know, I'll keep those conversations. is private. Satterfield's brother? Hougerson. Dana Hulgerson. Oh, all right. He wears the boys redhead on the sideline. J.P. knows what I'm talking about.

Okay, okay, okay. We hired him mid-year. Went on a little run there at the end. Oh, what's me? I remember this, dude. Yeah. Stumbled to Iowa. We stumbled in Iowa. We don't run at the end of the year, but second to last game of the year, we stumbled with Iowa.

Wait, Iowa was the second to last game. of the year? I was like our last regular season game because you know we went bowling. Bad boy mowers bowl. We're still in the category of keeping the bowl game when you win. What was the best bowl game you went to when you were there? Capital one, part of the New Year's six. And here we go, Will, what'd you do? Pick six. Pick six. That boy was bowling. This trips far gun the ex was nasty and there's a little tip on the sheet 100% of the time.

And that's what they would have lose the national championship game? They did, they did a 30 for 30 on that team, and they didn't show the last game they played.

God damn. Do you got a shout-out, J-P? I can give one if we need to give them. My shout-out, no-free shout-out would be, we're talking about reading earlier. When you're in elementary school, and either your name or your friend's name comes up in the text that you're reading in the book for class. So it's like Michael went to the store to grab five apples. And you look over at your boy Michael, you're like, you're in the book. And I feel like it's always hype when your name gets featured in your like elementary school school book.

All right. Yeah. Solid. Okay. Solid. Okay. Very nice. My, uh, shout out, new for shout out this week goes to, uh, goes to my 2019 Susquehanna football team.

Great shout out. Will? Um, I don't have one on me right now. I'm going to steal one. Last week, JP was going on a bachelor party. Wasn't excited about going on that bachelor party. Yesterday I decided to call JP, but hey, was it worth it?

Quickly says yes. Drives, however many hours you did drive. What, eight hours? It took eight hours to get back because traffic. Right. So four, let's say six. hours there, eight hours back, just to spend one day with his boy who is known for a long time. And the one thing that resonated with me in that conversation was the gratitude text from your

boy, saying, hey, I appreciate you making the time. Thank you for coming out. I know we don't get to hang out as much. And I feel like any time you see one of your old friends, or you do something, you go the extra mile from one of your old friends as you haven't seen a long time and you get that text, you realize you're on the right path in life. So shout out the gratitude text. Chavez? Do you need me to go? Do you need me to give one? Yeah, you're yours.

I'm back and forth between violent shits and our fire department. Together? No, this is two

separate shoutouts. I'm going to shout out our fire department. Okay. The ambulance crew. I haven't told you this story.

I told it last night for the dads, but Rue was choking on a coin. Rue was choking. looking on a coin was sitting at the kitchen island she was having lunch we're talking routine lunch charl was playing with scotty on the couch and ru wanted charl to do this magic trick that charl

always does for and charl's like i can do a free later sweetheart i'm playing with scotty right now but whenever you get done we can do the magic trick over here and i'm pumping out an email so i'm not watching ru but apparently there was a coin a euro a coin sitting on the kitchen Island, Rue grabs the coin and this magic trick is like whether Char puts it in the back of her ear, behind her head, or it comes out, but it seems like it comes out of her mouth. Or she puts it in her mouth and it comes out somewhere else. So Rue has the coin and she's essentially trying to mimic this magic trick. So she puts the coin in her mouth and she starts choking to where I'm sitting there on my

iPad and I hear her gag herself and I hear it make the gag noise and I kind of look over at her and she's got her fingers in her mouth and she gags herself again. And I just look at her. I'm like, what are you doing? They're thinking like, you know, she might have found something new that she was like doing. I have no clue. And I hear Charles say like, are you choking? I was like, is she choking?

She's choking. She's choking. There's a coin in her mouth. And I stand up. And I'm like, what in the fuck is going on? I like get behind her and I start trying to give her the hymlich. And Charles like, are you doing it right? And I was like, I think I'm doing it right.

And I'm like hopping up and down with her like right below the sternum trying to get it up. And Charles just jumps in, watch out. And she's like trying to grip it out of trying to like reach down her throat and get the coin. She's like, I feel it, I feel it. And she's like, I lost it. I lost it. And I'm like, I go, what do we do? She's like, call 911.

I'm gonna keep trying to scrape it out. So I called 911. I'm in an absolute panic. She's trying to get the coin out of Rue. She's starting to bleed. There's like blood on my shirt because she like scratches her in the throat. And I'm on the phone. The call lasts about three minutes and about the two minute mark when they're like, we have somebody on their way.

Charles, like, I got the coin again. I got the coin. She rips the coin out of her throat and Rue ended up being fine. But the EMT, like the fire department, everybody like, you know, comes over to the house. And they just check her for her for violence. She turned up fine, but absolute terrifying moment. Insane. How fast were there there?

Within, I want to say like three minutes from that call. Oh, no shit. There was like somebody coming, like when the call was having, she's like, there's somebody coming right out because I was like, hey, she got the coin out. She seems to be doing okay. I ask her a couple questions like, well, I'm on the phone. And she's like, well, they're on their way already.

So they're going to come and just like check her vitals and stuff. So shout out the fire department, the EMT, the EMT crew. Yeah. you know, they're like breaking down like some of the situations that could have happened because I'm thinking in my mind in that moment, if she goes unconscious, like she could die. That's not like she who's like, no, even if she goes unconscious, you start doing the compressions and just trying to get like oxygen to her brain, we would have still got it out had we arrived because a coin, the good thing about a coin is it's not like it doesn't break down like food does

in your throat to where it can like fully close it, fully close it up. But it's like, you know, they're kind of briefing us on everything that happened. But it was fucking terrifying. What was that like after the Rue hey we're not gonna put a coin in our mouth anymore are we and she's yeah yeah yeah it's called magic sweetheart I like you know charl was in a panic and stuff afterwards and i'm gonna only imagine and i was like uh maybe we don't teach scottie that magic trick yeah but you know they get these things it ended up it ended up all saw but it was like in that moment it was hell buddy it was scary because especially when charles like i got it and she's Like I lost it, went down further.

I'm just like, oh my God. And Charles just jumps into like superhero mode. Like, you call on Iowa one. She's like scraping it out. For real. Pull that thing out. She's like, you know, knuckle deep. She has like bite marks like up here on her hand.

Dude, we got so I don't know if we don't have this exact one, but there's something like that goes over their nose and mouth. And you like press a button and it pulls something out. So like we'll like take the food out. That's what you were starting to talk about last night. Yeah. It's not it's not this. But it's like more like harder plastic.

and it kind of goes down, and it has something up there, and you press a button, and it shoots it down. It's like spring-loaded where it shoots down, and so it can pull something out. Because I've had the thought a couple times with the kids eating something, like they'll just eat grapes. I'm thinking to myself, those grapes are dangerous motherfuckers out there. Yeah, yeah, always slicing them in a half.

Yeah, always slicing them. But then they get older, and you're like, all right, I guess you can have a regular ass grape, and I just get nervous. I get nervous about that. Yeah. Choking in pools, man, I get nervous with my kids being in. That's not it either.

But yeah, pools. So what's your shout-out, Traft? Dude, I'm over here trying to figure it out. And then I hear how serious this fucking story is. So I haven't been thinking about it at all. Shout to your wife, though, man. That's awesome. She jumped into action, bro.

It was nuts. You know what? Shout out to the Cleveland Heights Tigers, man. Take it back to high school. I haven't been around my city in probably two years, man. And I literally named a podcast with me and my brother after the upbringing that we had. And I just, I love the, I love the areas that I grew up. up. I love the families that that helped me kind of become the man that I am today.

And I just feel like you can never give enough love to a community that, uh, that, that raises kids the right way, man. So shout out, free shout out. No for shout out. No free shout out. Cleveland Heights, baby. I love you guys. You and Jason, not to put pressure in that sneak them an idea, but hosts a little live podcast. Yeah, we both got to get back to fucking Cleveland, man. Yeah. That'd be epic.

I was just gonna say sometimes I enjoy the fight of an explosive shit like when you know when you know you're having a big one and you're kind of fighting you know no pun of 10 you're kind of fighting your ass off a little bit of blood in the stool afterwards and you're kind of like it becomes a strategy to where okay I can't push this out I'm gonna have to slowly start breaking it down so you start like clamping your ass cheeks and your asshole so it breaks it down a little bit so you can have a little bit more like to push and then you don't want to push too hard because again you're not trying to get a hemorrhoid I've had those those are hell so just a little at a time you squeeze you push a little harder we gotta we gotta start

hydrating man the way i would explain what is going on what is going to try to push a little harder is almost like when they tell you lead two reps in the bank when you're doing a max outset so you don't want to go to a full bore where your r pms are all the way up you want to go just enough break it down a little bit more and get it out and i sometimes i enjoy a nice fight in the toilet the wind feels good yeah yeah that was it That's intense. That's insane. A little blood in the stool was wild.
