All right, let's move on to some bold topics to wrap up championship Sunday. Yes, sir. Let's do it. Ready? Chiefs 32, Bills 29. Man, it was a barn burner. And the Chiefs are headed back to the Super Bowl for their third straight year Going for the 3p Travis. Yes, sir. How we feeling? I'm feeling great man. Life is amazing. Life is amazing. I

mean, I just it's it's a crazy feeling to To be this fortunate in a game that you know, you've been playing your entire life, man. And I've had a lot of heartbreak. I've had a lot of times where it hasn't been this sweet. And right now I'm just riding the high of living this dream out with my brothers and everybody in Kansas City, man. For sure. Well, you got all the talk has been about the three

Pete. But did you know you've already set the record? You can set it more by getting the three-peat accomplished, which is obviously the main goal for the Chiefs. I don't give a fuck about a goddamn record. I won a Super Bowl this year. Just saying, you guys are the first team ever to win back-to-back Super Bowls and then make it back in year three. So you've already accomplished something more than any other team has done in consecutive

seasons. But if you cinch it, you'll be the first team ever, of course, to win three in a row. How are you guys dealing with the three p talk internally? I mean, we're, we're obviously talking about it nonstop. Yeah, every day. It's just, you know, I look at Pat every single day. We're like, no, we don't talk about it at all. We're more we're more focused on, you know, he breaks down everything. He's like, guys, I was going to come up here and talk about turnovers and staying in the moment and really focusing in on details and making sure you let

your personality show. But fuck, I'm just going to say what everybody else is thinking. We have a chance to win three in a row, guys. We can do this. That's all we should be focused on is that record. It hasn't been mentioned one time outside of being asked about it in the media. Everybody in the building has just focused on doing their job. That's how we got here. That's how we got the first one. That's how we got the second one. It's the only way you win football games and get to the Superbowl is if you focus on the task at hand. And we got a huge task coming up and it's a man, it's going gonna be electric. It's gonna be actually electric we know Philly's got the the sour taste and their mouth from the last one and

I know that and they're a hell of a fucking football team man. This would be the best team we play all year Well, we got a couple notes on the game itself rookie Xavier worthy back to this Bill's game had a huge game I mean his biggest game of his career not Not a bad time to put that up in the AFC championship. X man, he's just been slowly getting better, man. He's he bought into the to the process to the challenge that that the coach Reid has for him that this offense has for him to not just be that, you know, that I feel like when he got drafted to

everyone, it's like, man, it's going to be bombs over Baghdad. Pat's going to be throwing that thing 100 yards down the field and Xavier's just going to be running underneath it. He's got the straight line speed, but he's so much more than just a straight line receiver. He can run routes. He gets the ball in his hands. He can split defenders. He runs hard. I mean, he's the total package when you think of a wide receiver, you can play outside, you can play inside. And you can do some of the gadget stuff with them that you can't do with everyone, you know? That's what I saw. And it wasn't really gadget plays. I mean, they had a couple of gadget plays, but it felt like the big thing to me watching is like, you know, I think what teams

are kind of trying to do to you guys, man it up, right? And if you want to play man against this guy with all these mesh concepts and crossers with how fast he is, that's just going to be a tough matchup for anybody to get down, especially when he's timing everything up as well as he did this past week. Oh, yeah. It's been fun watching him progress each step of the way. I mean, it's his first career 100 plus yard receiving game, I guess 100 yards scrimmage. Yeah, 80 or 85, which was his most the most he had in the game yet, which is crazy to me. But there are a lot of big third, he had that big third down catch. I mean, it was a huge part of the game plan and help the Chiefs keep multiple drives going. Fourth down

blitz, maybe the biggest play of the game, fourth and five under two minutes, Spags dials up. The same thing he does always in crucial situations. You know you're going to get it. You don't know when he's going to come on fourth down or come on third down. You don't know where it's coming from. He mixes it up enough. But I always felt like when I played Spags with the Giants or when I played him with the Eagles, if you get into a crucial situation, he is not going to be one of these coordinators who just sits back and plays soft coverage

and lets you annihilate him. He is going to mix it up and you're gonna get a cover zero or some very big pressure, either a fire zone, whatever. He's gonna find a way to get pressure on you and make you make a play. And it was a beautifully designed and timed up blitz. That thing was on Josh so fast.

And credit to Josh, I mean, he almost made this play. It's actually crazy that this thing almost got completed if you think about it. I got Dalton Kincaid is going to be a he's going to be a stud in this league for such a long time. I'm talking about Dalton and he's I mean back to back weeks, man. My tight ends, man. Those are my guys right there, man. That shit hurts. Dude. This is the same freaking package Spags used to do in New York. You put the free safety down and you got to guess, are they bringing free safety in the will or are they bringing

it from the field? And it's so hard. He'll also drop and rush three. He does so much stuff out of this. It is so hard to get a beat on it. I always think the hardest ones to, the hardest blitzes to pick up are those fucking corner blitzes, man. If you can get, if you show because you're a cover two team when you can just show that, you know, I mean, you're playing a zone coverage, you can bring the corner man that throws everybody off, man, you just either got to know where your hots are, you got to be a, you know, a savvy enough QB to find some time and give yourself a chance like Josh did. And this is what you run the risk of when you run those cram alignments. Cause I bet if that's a out split receiver, it is going to be the safety down there. Cause this is a good point that you bring up because that's actually is the corner.

And it's a lot harder to see when the corner adds on. You usually don't include them in it. But when you have those nasty alignments, the corner and the safety a lot of times will switch responsibilities. So you take it. That's why we love specs and that's why I love this defense, man. They play so fucking well together.

They force guys to have to make plays and instead of just kind of playing guys straight up and playing these zones that a lot of coaches just are there. I want to say they're stubborn in the ways but they have their styles of how they play defense. And, um, do you either got to have the guys that, that communicate well or you just got to have guys that play balls of the walls, man. And that's what our defense does, man. They just fly around and make a plays, man. And I do got to say, I mean, Kincaid had a chance to catch this thing. That's not the easiest ball. That thing was curving away from them. When that thing goes up like that

and you can tell that you can tell by the way it was coming down, it's coming down funky. He's trying to track it and just couldn't come away with it. But man, almost a ridiculous, I mean, this would have been the play of the year if he pulled this off. So shout out to Spags for mixing it up and causing that play to really happen on fourth down. Oh yeah.

And that was a difference. I mean, last time you guys played these guys, Josh made the play on fourth down with the quarterback run. Right? That ended up sealing it. We were doing the top 10 plays. That was number one right there. Well, I mean, for the game to be able to do that, that was a huge play.

Yeah. During the season, that was a hell of a play by Josh right there, man. Yeah. Well, this time Spags gets the better of the bills on fourth down. Mahomes spike. What the hell? I mean, he can throw the ball anywhere on the field, but he can't throw it directly into the ground. Is that what we're talking about? I think when you, I think when you get the end zone like this. By Travis Slav. I called it out in the middle of the game. Travis Slav with an awesome block

on the perimeter. I didn't know if Pat handed it off or not because it was a read. So I wasn't sure if I was gonna take the guy from the inside, the linebacker from the inside, or if I was just gonna, if Pat was on my like tail, if he was trailing me enough, I knew the inside guy, Milano at this point,

wasn't gonna be able to make the play initially. Once I kind of felt everybody running towards me, I was like, oh shit, Pat's right behind me. This is why I got so proud of you because this block is so hard. So many guys, I talk about this with offensive lineman all the time. If you get too far out in the front of the runner, right? Like if you would have made that decision to go get Milano, he's not getting in. You play it smart.

You stay in good phase with Pat until you know, okay, now he's, he's not getting in. You play it smart. You stay in good phase with Pat until you know, okay, now he's, if he can't tackle me, he ain't going to be able to tackle Pat. So I'm going to keep on my course and climb and you end up sneaking out the touchdown. Awesome play. And then here's the spike. I don't- I'll tell you what, man. We put that play in the game plan this week. I was like That's gonna fucking hit you knew it We'd never ran that play before we never gave Pat the full ability to just like keep it on the run Yeah, like you get two guys pulling for the back You get two guys pulling for Pat and it's like the lime the line has to I mean the linebackers have to make a decision

That DN has to make a decision on who he's taken. And we ran it before Kareem scores for the touchdown because everyone's running with me, Noah and Pat. And this time they, they, they hesitate trying to read it out and we're out the gate before they can even adjust to it. I got to go back. I just love the way you hold on it too. I really think that's just such an underrated, like pause it right there. You got to make that decision. And once you see those guys break towards you, that's when you know, think that's just such an underrated like pause it right there. You got to make that decision And once you see those guys break towards you, that's when you know and that's the end and at the angle they were running I was like, all right. I know milano isn't going to be able to get it. I'm in 24 if I can get him Uh over by the goal and I think we can find a way in there's a great block by noah gray as well

Let's yeah, don't get everybody does a great job. job. Noah does a great job on the nickel, and freaking, this is like teach tape, that Howard Mud when I was a rookie, he would say when those guys drop off into their zones, don't go and chase them. Stay in phase with the running back, and you'll know based on when they break, when he has the ball, who has the ball, and where they're going, you know what I mean?

And it's just textbook. Anyways, great play by the Chiefs, getting it done there. Terrible spike by Pat. I mean, Pat said it during the week too. He's like, man, that was hilarious. You can tell he's just fired up. Sometimes when you get in the end zone, you're just fired up. You don't care what happens to the football, man. Put the team on his back, second rushing touchdown to the game. You kidding me, man? And we're going for two. Arrowhead was absolutely fucking rocking, man. God damn, man.

The AOC championship at Arrowhead, man. Something special about it, dog. It is. It is so awesome. Every time I get to go out there. Playout football there is a beautiful thing, man. But those AOC championship games, man, it's like a holiday that that I'll remember for the rest of my life, man Well, my homes apologized for his awful attempt at spiking the ball. He said that's why I don't try to spike the ball

He's now He now has the second most playoff wins in NFL history behind only Tom Brady He does have a ways to go to catch time. He's got an entire 17 more actually. Yeah, he's more than twice ahead of him still, which is crazy. It's always fun looking at these like career statistics from a Holmes and realizing he's not even into the second half of his career most likely as long as everything stays on the right track. It's insane, man. We've also got a new Travis Post game song. Oh yeah, KC and the Sunshine Band, baby.

Was it not Cher? No, it wasn't. It wasn't. Yeah. Just do a little dance. Make a little love. Get down tonight. They were playing that song right before we went up on the podium.

So I knew that I knew that and I heard the crowd singing it. So I was like, I'm gonna keep it going. I'm gonna get him fired up one more time. Can't go wrong with it. It's always been Beastie Boys, but I kind of like to change up. You got to mix it up when you when you're there that often. You got to mix it up. I got to mix it up.

Regardless. Do you guys enjoy being the villains of the NFL? I love it. Yeah gotta mix it up. Regardless, do you guys enjoy being the villains of the NFL? I love it. Yeah. I love it. I mean- At one point in time, you know, it wasn't that. And-

Yeah, you were the center. You guys were the darling of the NFL. Yeah, I was the, do you feel bad for him, guys? And- You're now the heel. I'm just, I'm enjoying doing this with the guys together, the guys that we have in there, because it's like it just makes us even more of a family.

You just circle the wagons. When shit, you know, people are saying whatever they want and you just band it together and it just makes you more appreciate more of what you have because people want what you have. This is how I feel, like how dominant you guys are at football, I feel like this when I play beer ball. I just know everybody wants me to lose but I'm not going to lose.

I refuse to lose a beer ball. And the whole crowd is like, God, this guy just keeps chugging beers way faster than everybody and winning because he can hit the ping pong ball so well under the beer can. And I feel the same way and I relish it. Whenever I'm on that beer ball table I know everybody wants me to lose and I'm just like I know damn well about the whoop the fuck out of everybody here and make all these people ruin their day I just relish in that it's also the most unregulated game there has ever been and

Jason knows how to bend the rules I've been the rules and regulated games so if you give me an unregulated game, I'm going to be pushing the boundaries even more.

I wasn't able to watch the game because I was going to yours. That was the biggest thing I was struggling with all week. Do I go to Travis's game? Do I stay in Philly? Because

part of me, and Kyle even brought it up, he's like, if you stay in Philly and they win, you can go to Broad Street, which is something I never, I always wanted to experience the last time we were making runs. Like there's just the videos you see and everybody out on Broad Street and how much the fans and city go crazy is just so electric. It's crazy. Yeah. But ultimately I wanted to be out there for you. We were actually in the plane getting updates from the pilots.

We had watched already the commanders go down and get a field goal, right? But the deed looked pretty good and they held him to three and they just, and then you go up there and the very first run, I mean, Saquon dashes right through, Jordan a lot of blocked like a defensive back into four people, tripped up Bobby Wagner and a whole bunch of people. And then Saquon broke like four tackles. I'm like, Oh, these dudes about to beat the brakes off these guys. I don't even need to. This is about to beat the brakes off these guys. I don't even need to. This is

about to be over quit. They're like monsters to their credit. It wasn't over. Yeah, this was the first one. I mean, dude, one to some of the worst tackling I've ever seen. But I mean, you can say it's bad tackling. But I mean, it's a slippery, so slippery and fast and strong. He's like some of those guys that are just like, they're built like fucking boulders and you know he squats the house say quad and he's just, it's easy to say you can just go up and tackle him if you got good form. And it's, that's not, that's not as easy as it seems when a guy is moving

as fast as he is and a guy's as strong as he is and the guy that can just like Stay balanced he can spin off you he can fucking jump over you You got to be ready for it all and man that run fucking showed it and we were up in the air And they were giving us I asked the pilots like hey give us score updates radio down to the tower whatnot That's so fucking it was fucking electric. We were going crazy back there because they scored that touchdown. I was like, oh, this is about to be, they're about to blow the brakes off these dudes.

Yeah, that's a hell of a play to fuck. Yeah, I'm like, this ain't gonna be close. If they're running the ball like that on the first play, this is gonna be a long day. After the leg was probably fucking erupted, like a volcano after that fucking touchdown, dude. The next score update we got, it was 14-6. I'm like, yeah, okay, there we go.

They're still moving the ball. There we go, love to hear it. Then we got 14-12. And I was like, oh crap, this is, all right, all right, they're starting to come back a little bit. And then the next update was like 27-12. I was like, okay, this thing's done. They're freaking, and that really was the turning point.

Like, Jayden Dane was still playing a hell of a game. When you go back and watch it, like, like Jane Daniels still played really well. The commanders did a lot of things well, but that three series sequence of like, Eagle score kickoff fumble recovery score, right going into half. That was when it was like, okay, this is going to be really hard for the commanders to come back from now. Especially with a run game like that and the way the Eagles were just controlling the clock. I mean, huge shout out to Dan Quinn. I mean, this team was,

to turn this around this quick within a year, I just thought it was such a testament to obviously how good Jayden Davis is, but also how great of a coach Dan Quinn was to get all these guys rallied together because this this team felt like it had been like as a team that has been through it for a long time. They were tough. They played hard. They played physical all season long. And I know they are probably still upset. They lost the game.

But I mean, when you take a step back and think about where they were a year ago and how good they were this year, I mean, amazing accomplishment. It's promising for sure. Yeah. Unfortunately for Eagles fans, this is going to be something that's going to be a pain in the ass for a while over there with Jaden Daniels and the Dan Quinn commanders. The commander Dan commanders. Yeah. The commander Dan Quinn. Yeah, we'll also see if, you know,

there've been a lot of quarterbacks that have one really good year as their first year. That's true. We'll see, Jaden, that's a challenge to you, brother. I wanna see it. I know I wanna see it, I'm a fan. Yeah, Jason, you officially pulled off the Dona Kelsey. How about it, man?

Keep it in the family. Go to the Eagles and Chiefs game in the playoffs and one fucking day. But you did it on Championship Sunday, which is cool. I did get to see everybody before the game, which was awesome. Nice. You know, I got to interview Nick Sirianni. I got to see Stout and Dom and Lane and all the all the guys. I got to watch go out on the field and and, you know, at least DAP them up. Yeah, I was about to say all the guys that you went to the Super Bowl with or won the

Super Bowl with and Shady was there. Dude you could see the look in those guys eyes too. These dudes were so focused and ready to do something. The intensity that's what I love about playoff football and I'm sure the commanders are the same way like the intensity was palpable. You could tell how much everybody was ready to get something done. And just I miss I miss being a part of that for sure. Man, I love that shit when everybody's just dialed in.

And they just got that dog look at them. They got that feel of like, I'm far I'm not scared of a goddamn thing, man. We're gonna go in here. We're gonna fight for sure fight to the finish. I love that fucking feeling, man. Well, Jason, we have to ask in your famous words, we got to ask as a retired Eagle, how does it feel that your team has gotten back to the Super Bowl, brother? As a retired Eagle, I'm immensely happy for these guys. I got to watch a bunch of guys that happy for these guys. I got to watch a bunch of guys that like are really, really close to me and have been more pivotal, either coaches or players and teammates, staff. I got to

watch a lot of people win a monumentally huge game. And not similar to the commanders, but the way last season ended for this group of players and coaches and the teams are different, obviously, like no two teams are the same every year. It's always got slight differences. Always. But there's a lot of similarities. Nick Sirianni was fighting a lot of nonsense all off season, right? And I just think so, I'm just so incredibly happy and proud that these guys have

Persevered and stuck together, you know got it done and find themselves back in the Super Bowl Just two years being removed from the last time we were there very happy for all these guys. Well, I I got a lot of love for a lot of the players and coaches over there just being your fucking brother, man So it's a we know it's gonna be our hardest fucking test. That's for damn sure. I mean, this is how it goes. The two teams in the Super Bowl go figure they're going to be well matched up. You know, we run the ball extremely well spags is probably the best coordinator I ever played one of at least one of the best coordinators I ever played against in terms of it stopping the run like he's going to have some frontstile it up. He's going to be stacking the line of scrimmage is going to make the Eagles uncomfortable at times. And the Eagles, I mean,

that was another thing. I'm just so happy for Jalen Hurts to have that game right there heading into the Super Bowl because he's coming off the concussion and some extended period of time not playing for that first playoff game. Then the second playoff game, it's a freaking blizzard. So the passing yards were down the first two weeks of the postseason. And he goes out and has a game like this, plays unbelievably well, throws. I mean, it might have been one of his best games of the season and happened in probably the most meaningful game. So not probably the most meaningful game.

So, yeah, all the stuff that you could want to go right went right in this one for the Eagles. And it's a hell of a momentum To take into the shoot bowl. Was it over when they put the Washington gear on the rocky statue or what? I love it whenever I see a team doing I'm like, all right y'all playing with fire the ghosts of Rockies about the I'm fully I'm fully aware of The fact that it happens every single meaningful game. Yeah, I don't think it's the other team doing it at this point. You think the Eagles are doing it?

100%. I mean, like iconically, they put the Chiefs gear on the statue last time. Yeah, that was Chiefs gear. It was like a red shirt that said Chiefs on it. Is that what it was? I don't remember. They like wrote Chiefs in like sharpness on it.

It's gotta be,. It's gotta be behind. This is conspiracy. I get behind. There's just firing up the entire city getting getting a nice and rowdy. Well, we learned about a new NFL rule in the game that the palpably unfair act rule. Yeah, actually already knew this rule. I didn't know that that's what it was called. I love it. I don't get it. What? I don't I didn't I missed this. So they jumped off sides four times. Sounds silly. I mean, it was crazy. They just kept jumping over.

Yeah, we kept going hard cadence. So. Well, yeah, but if you continually jump, at some point, they award you the score. Yeah, I like it. I like that idea. I think it's absolutely ridiculous. No, it's just not the ball No, snap the ball dude. Did we do it cheating? Why are we trying to why are we trying to get closer? We're not trying to get closer We're trying to stop this guy from jumping over and headbutting our quarterback on a quarterback sneak So maybe stop jumping over the pile. How about that time it up better, but yeah, he does But if you don't time it up better I think after that many times you should get points because Because at some point, they can just do whatever they want.

You're right. I guess you're right. Once you're backed up so far, like what is the, I don't know. No, I get it. Here's what I do know. Landon Dickerson and Cam Juergens are two of the toughest motherfuckers I've ever seen play football. What happened with that situation? So Cam's back was all screwed up all week Landon Dickerson was tough as hell tried to push through his knee deal Then cam jurgens had to go in after dealing with the back injury and ends up finding a way to get it done

I don't know how he did it. We found a way to get it done Swapping centers like that is I mean, that's a crazy deal if it happens in KC. I know like We were not just like outside of like the QB center exchange before practices. Like QBs aren't just like taking the snap from the second string guys or you know what I mean? Of course. Yeah. And I think that that's where, you know, they had the benefit land and played all week at center because Cam was trying to get healthy. So they had tons of reps to get that center exchange down and then Cam and Jalen have been center and quarterback for the whole year

So they got tons of reps together I think if they would have had to go to like a third string guy that can't they had never worked with that's when it starts So like oh wow, this could really who knows how this is gonna turn out Yeah, no, I think that they those guys have both played a lot for the Eagles They understand even when Landon's at guard, he'll operate. He thinks like a center. Landon has the mind of a center. So he always is communicating. He sees the game very similarly. For Landon, it was probably pretty easy from a mental standpoint to go in there, even though he was hobbled with the knee eventually. And then

Cam going back in there. I think that was just like, can this guy function? Which he clearly was able to. How many times did Eagles fans yell at you to put the pads back on for what? Just come on. Just put them back on. There's a lot of tweets. There's a lot of tweets. I appreciate them. Nice. I don't know what else to say. Well, yeah, I guess I can't I feel like we kind of

already talked about who we're rooting for. You're rooting for Yeah, a little bit. We didn't really touch. Here's the biggest thing. Obviously, you're my brother. I always root for my brother. That's the reality of it. All right. Even though I'm decked out in Eagles gear, I'm always going to root for Travis. Take that Philly. But what? Yeah, but. There's a lot of people in the Philadelphia organization, whether it's players, coaches, people in the building

that feel like extended family to me, especially my former lineman. Like Lane Johnson feels like a brother in a lot of ways. And I respect for those guys, too. I'm rooting for all I'm rooting for Philadelphia and I'm rooting for Travis Kelsey. That's the reality of ways. And I'm rooting for those guys too. I'm rooting for Philadelphia and I'm rooting for Travis Kelsey. That's the reality of it. No matter what on game day, I'm going to be happy for one of those sides and I'm going to be sad for the other side. Yeah, I was about to say it'd be mixed emotions, man. Yeah. And it's similar to the last time we played. I mean, maybe a little bit less intense

because I'm not playing now, but I think it's going to be very, very similar. I really do. I live in Philadelphia. I still go to the facilities on a very regular basis. I still feel like I am a Philadelphia Eagle and that I'm a part of all of these people that root and cheer on our team. So I would be lying if I didn't say, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't gonna be very happy if the Chiefs, or if the Eagles, I'm trying to think, I'm saying like double negatives right now, I'm trying to get this right.

I would be lying if I said I don't want the Eagles to win. You know what I mean? I want them to, but I also want Travis Kelsey to win. So, that's a long-winded way of saying, I just wanna see a good football game, and whoever wins, I'm gonna be happy for that guy. You heard it here first, folks. He wants Jason, he wants Travis Kelsey to win. We need to get you a mom jacket, a mom jacket, a jersey.

We need to get one. Get the Donna Kelsey jersey. Yeah. We got to get a cut and sew action here where we can get you cheering for the both teams like mom's done year in, year out. I can't wear red. I can't wear it. I can't bring myself to it. What about like Bearcat Red? That's what Kylie does, but I don't even think she's gonna be doing that this time around. Kylie.

I'm gonna wear my New Heights Big Yeti shirt. Is it in red or is it in yellow? The Yeti shirt? Is it the red one or the one that's in yellow? I don't know. Oh, it's in Chiefs Red. Okay, so I won't be wearing the Big Yeti shirt. I'll wear the yellow one I have. The Big Yeti yellow one I'll have, I'll't know. Oh, it's in Chief's red. Okay. So I won't be wearing the Big Yeti shirt. I'll wear the yellow one I have. The Big Yeti yellow one I'll have. I'll wear that.

Just wear a New Heights shirt, man. That way I know. That's a good idea. There you go. Wear one of the new merch. New Heights. All right. Let's take a look at Broad Street for some of the best of Eagles fans celebrations because we always know Broad Street's going to get fucking nuts when the when Philadelphia sports teams punch their ticket into the championship man for sure. The pole climbing reading inter excellence is fucking God damn Philly gets it man.

It's a fun city. It is a fun city. Check him out. Throw me the book. Throw me the book. Yeah. Now that's it our excellence right there. is a fun city. Check him out. Throw me the book. Throw me the book. Yeah! Now that's in our excellence right there.

I couldn't be more happy of all the positive mental just like therapy that A.J. Brown has brought to the city of Philadelphia. So many people are gonna be reading this self-help book. Pre-game walking cart smoker. Pre-game walking cart smoker. Pre-game walking cart smoker? Oh, that's fucking hilarious. This guy's smoking some ribs.

That's fucking hilarious. There's a pig's head on there. Go back to that, was there a pig's head on the cart? It was the whole fucking pig. He's literally, he's literally rosy. Jesus. That's amazing. Twisted teaosing it. Jesus. That's amazing. Twisted T underneath it.

Nice. That's hilarious. Six-year-old arrested climbing a pole. Let's see that one. You can't arrest a six-year-old. That's not real. Can I go up high? Alright.

Oh no! Can you do it son? Can you do it? That's actually hilarious. Even the police were having fun with the craziness that is Broad Street after the NSC championship win man. Is New Orleans, Louisiana ready for Eagles fans man? Not if they win I mean, no, New Orleans has seen some rowdy stuff just in general. Like that's a rowdy town They're ready to party at any time. Oh, yeah, but birds fans down there if the birds pull this off

It's gonna leave their mark for sure on Bourbon Street. Bring your party beads. There's plenty of poles Outside on the street and inside. You got to grease them. You got to grease them. There's going to be beads and poles and it's going to be fricking nuts. Yeah, or it's not going to be. Is there any other football stuff we want to hit? Who are you rooting for? I'll tell you what, my money's on Pat Mah homes. All right. That's it for championship Sunday. We will have

a full Super Bowl episode dropping next week where we can talk about some more football. We're also going to record that one in person in New Orleans. I'm hoping from a balcony right on Bourbon Street, but they're telling me that logistically that's impossible, but we still are figuring out our schedule. So stay tuned to New Heights on social so you know when that episode next week is gonna drop. Onto the next segment, New Heights Food Court.

All right, New Heights Food Court is brought to you by MTV's The Challenge All-Stars. Oh yeah. That's what I'm talking about, baby. Think you can make it work with your worst enemy? Tune in January 29th at 8, 7 Central on MTV. That's what I'm talking about, a little MTV shout out. Are there that many people in the Central time zone

that it's worth saying 8, 7 Central? I mean- Why is it always, why is it done that way? I think it's- Like there's more people in the West Coast time zone, right? Yeah, I'm not sure. So why don't you say East and West Coast and let the people in the middle just do some math? Yeah, you could do it like that

or you could just talk to probably our audience and since you're in the East Coast and I'm in Central Time. All right, that makes a lot more sense. I mean, that's just how I draw the conclusion or connection. No, it's really smart, so I feel stupid now. This week we're informed there is an official Skyline chili ice cream. What the fuck are we doing people? I'm not gonna lie. I cannot wait to try this. This is so disgusting

Why can you not wait to try this? Because I'm a sucker for these stupid New like food item things like I always go to Taco Bell and get like their Doritos shell, whatever. And it fucking tastes terrible all the time. But I got higher expectations. It's graders. Great. Why did you just say graders like that? You know, graders is fucking the best. It's got one good flavor. It's got every good flavor. It's got one good flavor. It's got one flavor that everybody knows. the best. Black raspberry chip, but- That's it.

You're out of your mind. Kraters is incredible. Well, they just got worse for doing Skyline Chili. Can we get a garage beer flavored ice cream? Oh, I thought you were going to say garage beer flavored Skyline Chili. I was like, dude, no. No, that doesn't sound good to me, but garage beer flavored ice cream- Ice cream sounds better than a beer.

A garage beer flavored ice cream. Yeah. That sounds fucking delicious. All right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Well, we know Jason would eat this. There's no fucking chance I'm eating this. I cannot wait to try this. Great. As if you're out there, you want to ship some dry ice. I will eat it on this podcast. Cause that's how much I love it. I am in. I'm going to be very honest though. If it's bad, I am going to say it's bad.

So don't send it to me if it sucks. What would be the worst food to be made into an ice cream? I would say one is chili. What do you think? I don't know. Chili, like you put sour cream in it, I think it pairs well with the dairy. More than people really think when they first hear it. Just gonna put that out there. You disconnected sour cream and ice cream?

Just saying they're both dairies, the creams, derivatives of cream. Something tells me that the sour cream that they're serving over there in Skyline Chili isn't. I don't think they put sour cream in Skyline Chili. Skyline is not traditional chili. We both know that. What do you think would be the worst thing for the worst ice cream flavor uh what doesn't match up with dairy to you i mean the problem is everything kind of works for ice cream i just love ice cream that much i mean i'm reading mayo mayo would be fucking just absolutely disgusting i

don't think i'd be interested in that. It's too much mayo. I'm not a big dairy and spicy guy. No? I don't think those two really mix very well. Like so like a jalapeno wouldn't go, wouldn't be a good ice cream, jalapeno ice cream? I don't think so. Anything like flaming hot like that, like super spicy.

I'd do some long hot ice cream. Ooh, some long hots. Pickle long hot ice cream. Oh, some long hats. Pickled long hot ice cream. Pickles another one pickle I would definitely be out on. And I love pickles, but pickles and ice cream would be fucking disgusting. A little salty and a little sweet. That's not just what you get. That's crazy. You just tried to make it sound that simple. Well, cucumbers. What about cucumber ice cream? I bet that'd be pretty good. I like cucumber water sometimes. It's a very faint flavor. It wouldn't turn me away. I would be like, all right, I'll try it. But it wouldn't make

it. It's not like this sounds good. I think pickle ice cream wouldn't be bad. I'm in on trying a little pickle ice cream. I don't think we're going to find a flavor that I'm not into. Ice cream is where I'm different than like donuts. Everybody likes the creative donuts. I fucking can't stand creative donuts. Give me a glazed donut and I'll tell you if it's good or not. Ice cream, I'd like being a little frisky with some ice cream now. I'll try your funky flavors. Did you – were you an espresso like hater on ice cream? Like a coffee flavor ice cream? I love coffee ice cream.

Love coffee ice cream. My go-to is butter pecan or pralines and cream. Typically I get two scoops. I go to the ice cream parlor, I get a cup, never a cone, get a cup, and I'm going to put one scoop of something that I know is going to be good, and I'm going to do another scoop of something that either pairs well with that or something that sounds interesting I've never had. That's kind of my go-to for ice. That's a pro move, ladies and gentlemen. That's how you get ice cream. Sometimes I'll just go cone because I love that sugary delight. You like the cone? I'll do it occasionally.

It adds a good texture to it. It's got to be a good like a nice vanilla waffle cone or like something like just like... I I'm gonna go get some fucking ice cream today. That does sound good. What is on the Mount Rushmore of ice cream flavors? That's like asking what's on your Mount Rushmore of like movies and music. There's just so many fucking flavors and some flavors taste better from different places you know. I just I can't just... It's very hard. So I'm gonna go... You can't go wrong with fucking Oreo or can't just. It's very hard. So I'm gonna go. You can't go wrong with fucking Oreo or cookies and cream. It's just like.

Okay, so Oreo is one. I've never heard anyone say they dislike Oreos or cookies and cream. It's true. It is a pretty unanimously loved ice cream. Are you a Butter Pecan fan? You better believe it. I love Butter Pecan. It's my favorite.

Oh, fuck on. I'll fuck on that shit. But you know why? It's that salty and sweet deal. That's what gets me with the Butter Pecan. I was a big fan of Cold Stone Creamery and getting the cake batter ice cream. Cake batter. And the brownie in there. God damn it. That's one of my favorites. Brownie and cake batter. You can't fucking. It's so hot. It was so good. Dude, that's a fucking.

And then I would have them drizzle. That's a drop kick to your fucking tonsils right there. I would have them drizzle the caramel and chocolate in there as well with it. It's another pro move, Jason. Cake batter. But dude, cake batter specifically from. Cold Stone. Cold Stone. Yeah. Which graders probably is not going to like. Here's another one. Is black raspberry chip on

there? I'm disappointed that you've made me have to make this decision. What else do we have? We got to get something like... I'll tell you what. ...fruit based. We have to get a fruit based one in there. One that I go to very often, it's a very safe pick and it's always good pretty much. Lemon ice? I love strawberry ice cream. I'm with you. It's not something that you... It's kind of like you forget about it. It is so good.

It goes back to your two flavor thing. That's one that I compare with a lot of the ones that I get. You can pair strawberry with Oreo cookies and cream with butter piquant. You can like moose tracks. You can pair strawberries with all those. Cake batter, another one. It just makes sense. Final four, I'm going to go cookies and cream. Butter, pecan. Yeah. You can't go too creative. I think you got to keep it pretty simple because you can't go brand specific. So I'm with you. Oreos and cream, Oreos, cookies and cream, butter, pecan. Yep. I say cake batter and black raspberry chip.

But cake batter is only specific to, what's it called? I can't think of the name. Cold Stone. Cold Stone. I've never had it outside of Cold Stone, I'd say that. Right. But goddamn it, I've never had black raspberry chip outside of Graters. There's some other people making black raspberry now. They've tried to take it from them.

It's not done as well. All right, you make the list then. No, you got it. That's it. Cookies and cream, butter, can cake batter and black raspberry chip. Tell us how we did 92 percenters. People are gonna hate this list.

This is easily the most. This is a solid list. You can mix cake batter with everything. We're on the same page. We don't just like to grab one. We like to get something that's a combo. We like to get more flavors and sometimes combine those flavors. Right.

And I think all these, you can kind of combine and you can make a really good ice cream spread. The fact that we don't have any chocolate on there, I just like, I'm in agreement, but. I mean, chocolate ice cream is nice. It sucks. That was the bear claw you're talking about. It had the brownie and the chocolate.

It was so fucking good. It was so good. All right. Well, too bad we already put it up there. Let's keep it moving. Shout out to the New Heights Food Corps. Shout out to Graders, stepping their game up with Skyline Chili. Yeah. Yeah. Everybody in Cincinnati,

go and taste that shit and tell us. If Jason can't get it sent to his house, you tell us. I would love to hear. And don't be biased. Just because you love both of them. Just be honest. We know you've five one three years. For the first time ever, the Challenge All Stars is coming exclusively to MTV.

up they all yell poop dollar listen i do love a good super bowl to new heights. I love a good poop dollar. Don't get me wrong. But I think there's an appropriate time. And that is the Super Bowl coin toss. There's no way it is going to wait down one of the sides. So it won't be a very even coin toss. Whatever side the poops on is going to be landing. That that side down. It's got to be tails, right? That's got to be the pooped out of the side. So if it lands tails, you just scream poop dollar. Well, the poop dollar's on whatever side you put it on. Or you put it on both sides. Dude, it's not even a dollar. If it is, if it's a silver dollar. Oh, so if it's a silver dollar, you got to put it on the the tail side. You can't put poop on the head side.

Poop on somebody's head? Yeah. Yeah. So if it lands heads, then we don't say anything. But if it lands tails, we all got to yell poop dollar. I think you just yell poop dollar when the official picks it up. That's fucked up. Well, now they know it's coming.

I don't know how we're going to commandeer the coin toss or the coin for the coin toss. Well, you're the... I know where we we get poop from. I feel pretty confident I can get that. But I don't know how we're going to be able to get the coin. Yeah, it's a good point. You know, Roger, you just got to talk to Roger. I'll talk to Roger. We got a lot of voicemails. And in particular, we got a lot of voicemails that we wanted that you guys wanted to hear our interns answer. So we're bringing in Jake and Brandon to this segment. What's up?

Where we're gonna listen to some voicemails. What's up? What's up, boys? Don't focus up. Long time since I saw you guys. I am already regretting this. Everyone please stop talking. No, you're not.

Jake, Brandon, how you guys feeling? You guys feeling good? We're feeling good. Dude, I've been floating. I've been floating. Dude, I got a question. How was Arrowhead? Arrowhead was loud. Ever has rocked.

Arrowhead is rocking. I will say this. Do you ever you ever experience the the Cowboys Stadium that rock and like that? Let's see. The last time they were in that old NFC title game, I was Jake, the other the Jets know the Jets stadium ever get rocking like that? MetLife gets loud. I'll give Jets fans some credit. MetLife gets loud.

It does. I haven't been to a playoff game in 15 years, but back then it was loud. I was just asking questions. Just two guys from devoted fans to their fan base. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Die Hard Cowboys fan Brandon. Die Hard Cowboys fan, sure. Yeah, fuck all of you The moment at arrowhead jig, I don't remember like if you had the moment that it was the loudest at arrowhead was

When the fourth when the fourth down was incomplete when like everybody was confirmed that ball hit the ground was holy shit That place erupted and then when everybody kind of clocked that P Ryan had the angle to get the first down Because there there was such a low from that third down. It was like oh, oh shit They we could give Josh Allen one more chance if we everybody was doing the math in their head and there was a lot of Clinching going on in that stadium. So it was a lot of like oh shit shit shit shit shit shit And then I think when they saw him break and they saw the angle he had that first down, I think that was the loudest I heard it all day. And that was fucking incredible.

It was shaking the walls. That was wild. I will say that. I was not. Yeah, which voice mail? Which voice mail do you want to hear? People? People want to hear from us this week.

Let's see what we'll see what rooting is about. Okay. So we know that everyone's going to be asking Jason, who he's rooting for in the Super Bowl, what he's going to be asking Jason, who he's rooting for in the Super Bowl, what he's going to wear, everything. My question is for intern Brandon and Jet's Jake. Congrats on getting up to the sweet. We all saw the picture on Twitter. Congrats.

X, whatever they call it now. So the big question, one, do you get to go to the game? And two, what are y'all gonna wear for the Super Bowl? It's a great question, guys. It's a great question. Great question. Way to put Travis on the spot.

Let's do it. Yeah, thanks. It's weird how that voicemail got slipped in here. That's crazy. Travis, our intern, Brandon and Jeff Stake. Travis, really, for you, first off. Yeah, you that one out? Travis, our intern Brandon and Jet Shaked. Travis, really for you first off. Yeah, you wanna go out? The crazy thing is that all NFL players get two tickets.

So Jason, I'm pretty sure you know somebody on the Eagles. I'm no low. This is Jason's choice. I'm no longer a player. Yeah, who's your favorite? But you know players on the Eagles that you could probably get the tickets from. You want me to ask other players

for two tickets for intern Brandon and Jet Shaked? No, I'm not doing that. Yes, you do God damn it. I thought we were all friends here. If you guys want to go I'll buy some tickets That was your chance boys. I don't even know if I'm gonna go yet, but I'll buy some things I'm gonna go where you go. I'm not I'm very much from I might watch it from Bourbon Street I'm not gonna lie that sounds more electric than being in that stadium Sure, it's balcony the rooting question is very good And I really think Jake's got the best answer on this.

So I'll let him go first. Well, oh, that was what I was gonna do to you. So that's no, I think Jake, let's let you go first, buddy. What are you rooting for? They asked what I would be wearing. I will be wearing New Heights merch because I'm a car. Well done, Jake. That's why we employ you.

Exactly. Who I'm rooting for is a tough question because most of my family lives in Philadelphia. Travis is playing and so if either one of you is buying us tickets, that's probably the team I'm gonna reach. All right, well that settled that one for you. What about you, Brandon? Listen, if I buy you a ticket to get you an Eagles gear at the Super Bowl, I might just be willing to make that purchase. Don't dress up like Swoop.

I don't give a fuck. Scott just wants to go to the Super Bowl, man. I love it. That's a fair one, that's a fair one. Brandon, you gonna give your two cents or you ain't on your with Jake on that? Oh, I can be bought. I can be bought like that. I can be bought. My my price is low brother. Um I will say this and II've been thinking about this because this it's funny when this happens. Jason and I were laughing about this of like of course this is the ****

situation we found ourselves in again. Again, we're gonna run this back. Yeah. I have were laughing about this of like, of course this is the situation we found ourselves in again. Again, we're going to run this back. Yeah. I of course, want to root for Travis Kelsey because the phone call or recording we have to have afterwards is going to be miserable otherwise. But it's a good point. Ah, I do want to say this and I do want to, I do really want to say this to Philly fans, to cheese fans, so much of what this show was able to do like season one was because both teams and organizations

and coaches and players were so like nice to us and so like gracious to give us access to Jaylen and Pat and Andy showed up for an episode that it's, this is going to suck. I'm being very clear. This is going to suck bad. Like I really It's really fun that this happened to get it also is gonna be such a kick in the dick for No, it really is like I I've been very lucky to get to meet a lot of the the people we talk about and I am gonna be fucking heartbroken for somebody and it's I really Don't want to go through it. But it's, I think that's the honest answer is like, it's going to be miserable for somebody.

And I don't want to deal with that, but we'll have to, we'll cross that bridge when we get there, but it's going to be miserable. It's an honorable answer. I really can't say enough good things about both the players and coaches and media people that we've gotten to work with over the last couple of years and it's gonna be fucking brutal. And I want all of them to know that. I read it's a genuine answer.

Yeah, I mean, it's a championship organizations for sure. Yeah. Both of them don't get here without being fully, having the full arsenal of people doing it the right way. I do remember when we started this and we were working with the Eagles for the first time and I met one of the Eagles PR people and they were like, you're just gonna give Jason

a microphone and I was like, yeah. And they're like, and he's just gonna fucking say whatever. And I was like, yes. And they're like, oh, good luck with that. Really? Yeah, they were like, oh boy. Hope you guys can edit. Yeah, that was, this was like the easiest ask

that I've ever had to ask like the chiefs Media Really? Yeah asking them if it was cool if I did catching Kelsey now, that's a ask Yeah, you want to you want to do one more Jason? Yeah, you know, I want to hear which one you want to hear. All right, let's hear. Let's hear the last one then no, you know, know what I want to hear. Which one you want to pick? You know what they want to hear. Alright, let's hear the last one then. No, you know which one they want to hear. I don't know which one they want to hear. I don't. I thought that

was the one. I'll play it. I'll play it. Hey guys, this is Jenna. LongtimeFlipy here and I need to know, intern Brandon and Jeff Jake, how does it feel that you have gotten the K fuck ass filter privileges? We know it's hard to get in there and you guys did it. So I need to know what was the experience like? How did it happen? Was it just a ball of chaos? Was it planned? Not planned, but you know what I mean. But yeah, let us know. Well, what was the what they they signed a so The fuck-ass filter it is the the what I have learned about this recently it is the water it's the they have a name for like how the photos on that camera turnout is what I have learned and That was the photo that people have been tweeting. But I'll say this about the sweep.

I'm so confused. I yeah, and I'm on I'm online. I know I don't where what are you even saying? You're saying focus? You're saying the fuck ass filter? The fuck ass filter? What the fuck is that? Yeah, what does it mean? That's the name they picked for always they don't just say a name. All right, they make it make sense What is the what make it make sense? Why is it that I I'm as confused as everybody else? I was a sound like you're anywhere near as confused as us Yeah, fuck ass filter is just how those photos turn out on that camera Jake if I'm wrong. What what camera Taylor's camera the tape

Taylor has a camera. Who? Who? All right. Well, since you understood the question, go ahead and answer it. I'll say this. I will say this. Two things. One, nothing that we've ever done on the show is planned. Let me make sure that's abundantly clear. This has been nothing but winging it for about three years. So Jake and I ended up where we ended up was a complete fucking last second Hail Mary of like, Hey, if there's any fucking room, we'll go. Like, you know, we'll go. And we were very lucky. Jake and I were talking, we got in Saturday, we're going Sunday and we were like, Saturday, let's fucking keep it easy. Let's go have dinner. Let's get like a drink and let's get the fuck to bed. Sunday's a marathon, gotta be on your best behavior,

you're fucking, you're meeting everybody. We fucked that up so bad. We were out 12 hours of the goddamn night on Westport, that was a stupid idea. We were so not ready for the game on Sunday. It was a great time. You gotta tell everybody where you went in Westport. We went to Charbar and we went to Cali's.

You didn't tell me you went to Charbar first. We went to Charbar first, Charbar Kelly's. You didn't tell me you went to Charbar first. We went to Charbar first. Charbar first. Did you get some barbecue? Oh, we got those burn ends. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah.

I like the wings too. They got the big, they got the full wing. They don't split. We didn't do the wings. We got like a barbecue platter and then the guy, I can't remember if he was the owner or not, was like, oh, you gotta go to this bar down the street first and we were like, oh, let's fucking go there.

Yeah, Kelly's on the corner, baby. And that turned into like six hours of, I don't know, Jake, how are you feeling that next morning? It was not good. I couldn't. I had to I had to mix in a couple more waters than I did, but it was an awesome weekend. I was very happy to be there. And I'll I'll say this about Jake and I, we were completely unprepared for the moment, but we went, we were in the suites.

I will say this, Jake and I had no idea how to introduce ourselves. Like we forgot how to be people. We were like, do you, are we going to shake hands with her? Are we going to like, what does she know? We walked in the door and I'll give this away. She said our names immediately. It was like, oh my God, Brandon, Jake, finally we were floored. Like we didn't see it coming. It was such a, she just shook us immediately with knowing our names and it just threw us and we

floated on over to continue the conversation. And so that was a moment that I will sort of replay in my head for a while. She knows how to break the ice. She broke the ice so well. Yeah, she could probably read that Jake and I were terrified. I'm sensing a lot of middle school dance energy from these two. So I'm just going to go ahead and thank you so much for being the adult here. Jake, am I wrong? Am I wrong? Read of that situation.

We were fucking it up bad. No, you're right. You also you told me to, you know, wipe my nose a little bit before. Like I had some bads in the cave. Oh, yeah. Okay. I looked you dead in the eyes and I was like, you got it. You got to clean up the face brother.

Like you're going in the door. No, it was awesome. And travel like your friends are a good group of people to watch a good hang like a good hang It's a yeah awesome welcoming group and they were just like hype for me and Brandon to be there Which was an incredible experience and it honestly was like the best football watching It's the past three years have been the best football watching experience of like my entire life So I mean, I know that's not saying much as a 30 year old Jets fan.

As a Jets fan, that's not, the bar's low. Honestly, just incredibly grateful to have been there. It was awesome. Thank you guys. No man, it's fun. And you already know, we keep the good ones around. You guys are every part of the friend group and the hang as anybody.

And yeah, man, it was a blast enjoying the rest of that chaotic sweet once I got up there after the game and after the field the antics on the field afterwards it was a that thing was rocking it was nothing but good vibes man. That was good. It was fun. Yeah appreciate you guys saying that about Tay. Of course. No one more thing can I do one. Can I do one more? Can I do one more? Yeah.

And I did want to wait to say this on the show, but you know, we had a long conversation with her, but she was very complimentary of the show. Nice. And of like. Oh, she listens every week. She gave us some creative compliments and she like, it's shit that like, let me be very clear. You can't tell me shit for us my fucking life

You can't you can't I am gonna be obnoxious. I'm like, you know, you're fucking talking to We're doing a we're doing performance reviews at work and we take something right now fucking I'm not listening to a goddamn thing reviews at work and we take some right now. Fuckin I'm not listening to a goddamn thing for another six years. Get out of my face. So I will say that I was very appreciative of it and I did wanna like make sure everybody, you know, Jake and I are very lucky that we get to kind of

fuck around with you guys publicly, but there's a lot of people that do a lot of great work on this show and like those compliments are not just for us, they're for everybody. So when somebody of that sort of like creative caliber pays you a compliment, you kind of like, oh, fuck. And again, I'm going to be a complete narcissist from here on out. And I and I'm sorry to everybody who's around.

Damn it, Taylor. Yeah. Oh, fuck, brother. It's done. It's over. You lost me. I was humble for only so long. No, it was it was a lot of fun.

I don't think you have anything. I said peek behind the curtain. Brandon's never been humble in his life. so long. No, it was it was a lot of fun. Jake, I don't think you have anything. I said peek behind the curtain. Brandon's never been humble in his life, so not much is usual. Business is usual. Business is usual. Business is usual. Business is usual. Yeah, everything's the same. You guys want to do this last voicemail?

What's the last hobby horse race? Oh, God, we want to revisit it. Yeah, let's go. We let's do it. I do want to say this for you before we get in that one. The amount of people that came up to Jake and were like, oh, you're Jake way to throw your sister under the bus last week. Let's stagger. Well, talking about your sister's favorite hobby, that's a hobby horses. Last week,

Judge Jake absolutely blew up a sister spot when we were talking about hobby horsing and how I think it's absolutely ridiculous. And Jane sides with me on that. So we had her call in with a rebuttal and here it is. What up brothers? It's the sister. What's. And I think I just need to set the record straight. You call it hobby horsing. The real horse girls call it horseless. And I was not playing horseless in high school. Honestly, don't really even think it was middle school. So let's stick to elementary school, please.

And if Jake's gonna try and embarrass me, I just think you should also know he couldn't make it off the JV tennis team in high school Wow Wow what? Jesus you couldn't make it off the JV tennis. Well, we said is do we not have a backhand with it? It's not that hard Jake. I was varsity. Come on. What are we doing? How many kids even play tennis at your school was the court big enough Jake Jesus couldn't keep it in there's like mixed doubles Jake like what are we doing? Did we pick tennis and not have good lateral movement you had to like run a mile under 10 minutes couldn't do that

Ten minutes slow as shit Also, I was like you can walk a mile in ten minutes Ten minutes? Ten minutes? Slow as shit Also, I was like Jay you can walk a mile in ten minutes Jay you could like you could I just made it worse for myself. All right, but that's fair. Oh More family. All right, my sister can shit on me all she wants This is so good. Horse less though. You can't go Six miles an hour for one mile.

That's crazy. That's a crazy way to put it. Jake, we gotta work on this. I know, I'm working on my personal fitness. I'm working on my personal fitness, all right? It's 2025. It's a new year. But yeah, no, high school me couldn't do the 10 minute mile. Yeah, it was bad. It was bad. But JV, the high school me high school me couldn't do the 10-minute mile

Yeah The JV was fun JV captain three years Didn't didn't make it off the team JV captain. I don't know Jacket were you what do we do to Jake? I don't think he's ever gonna be good enough to make varsity Just make him the captain of the JV team He's gonna embrace it then. Yeah. Jayce is so good. That's the one.

He's a leader. I was a leader. We could put you on varsity, but we need those leadership skills on JV. You got to show these kids how it's done. I don't know what's more impressive. We need some good mentoring. Mentoring.

What did she call it? She said it's not hobby horse. She called it horseless. Like horseback riding without a horse. No, it's, she's incorrect. Oh, that's so worse. We're not letting that go. No.

It's not even better. No. It is better than, it was like elementary school though. I'll give her that. Okay, yeah. You lied. She's lying. I can see it being a kid's thing. I still she's lying.

So we're using your sister of lying. How long did she do it for? I'll give her probably not high school but like I was in high school so she was in middle school. What's the difference? All right. She's calling back in with more shit next week. All right. He's probably ignoring me for the rest of her life. I don't know what's more embarrassing. Middle school hobby horsing or JV, who captain of the tennis team for three years. Could she have run a mile with the hobby horse? Or like in less than 10 minutes? Oh, guaranteed. Guaranteed, right? Yeah. She was quick. Why did you keep playing tennis? Why didn't

you just stop? I think he stopped after three years. I did stop after 30 years. So you stopped your senior year? I'm not going to be a senior on JV. That would have been bad. That would be embarrassing. You were captain of the JV team your freshman year?

I don't know. I might have made up the captain thing entirely if we're being honest I make up a lot of shit whenever I get put in front of the camera. I don't know how to speak Oh my gosh, that's so good All right. All right. Well, that's an episode jake brandon.
