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 three Pete Travis.
Yes, sir. How are 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, 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 Pete accomplished, which is obviously the main goal for the Chiefs. I don't give a fuck about a goddamn record. I want 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 a three-peat talk internally? I mean, we're, we're obviously talking about a nonstop. Yeah. Every day is 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 focused on, you know. Andy 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 could 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 is 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 Super Bowl is if you focus on the task at hand. And we got a huge task coming up.
It's a man. It's gonna be electric. It's gonna be actually electric. We know Philly's got the the sour tastes and their mouth from the last one and you 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 bills game had a huge game I mean his biggest game of his career 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's he bought into the to the process to the challenge that uh that that coach Reed has for him that this offense has for him to not just be that you know that I feel like when he got drafted everyone's like man is going to be bombs over Baghdad. Pat's going to be throwing that thing a hundred yards down the field and Xavier's just going to be running underneath it. You know he's got the straight line speed but he's so much more than just
like a like 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 he's the total package when you think of a wide receiver. You can play outside. He can play inside. And you can do some of the gadget stuff with them that 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 time and 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 the most he had in the game yet, which is crazy to me. But there are a lot of big third here, 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. It does always in crucial situations. He's, you know, you're going to get it. You don't know when he's going to come on fourth down and then I'm 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. He just sits back and plays soft coverage and let you annihilate him. He is going to mix it up and you're going to get a cover zero or some very big pressure either at Firezone, whatever. He's going to find a way to get pressure on you and make you make a play and
It was a beautifully designed and timed uplits. I think it was on Josh so fast. It was 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. This is the same freaking package. Spags used to do in New York.
You put the free safety down, you got to guess are they bringing free safety in the will or they bring in 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, the hardest ones to, the hardest blitz is to pick up are those fucking corner blitzes, man. If you can get, if you can show it because you're a cover two team, when you can just show that
You know what 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 or you got to be a savvy enough QB to find some time and give yourself a chance like just it. And this is what you run the risk of when you run those cram alignments. Because I bet if that's a out split receiver, it is going to be the safety down there. 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. Usually you don't include a minute. But when you have those nasty alignments, the corner and the safety a lot of times will switch responsibilities. You take it. That's why we love SPACs. 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, you know,
playing guys straight up and playing these zones that you know a lot of a lot of coaches just are there I want to say they're stubborn in the ways but they have their their styles of how they play defense and 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 him. 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 be in the play of the year if you pulled this off. So shout out to Spaggs for mixing it up and
causing that play to really happen on fourth down. Oh, yeah. And that was the 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 stealing 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 a month, gets the better of the bills on fourth down the home spike. What the, 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 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 going to take the guy from the inside trying to line back her from the inside or if I was just going to, if Pat was on my like tail, if he was trailing me enough, I knew the inside guy, uh, Milano at this point wasn't going to be able to make the play initially. Once I kind of felt everybody running towards me, I was like, Oh shit, pass 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 offense alignment 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 of 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 a spike. I don't tell you what, man. We put that play in the game plan this week. I was like, that's going to fucking hit. You knew it. What made you think that?
We had 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 line, the line has to, I mean, the linebackers have to make a decision that Dean 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 and that's and 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 a great block by Noah. Great as well. Yeah. Don't give everybody does a great job. Noah does a great job on the nickel and, uh, freaking this is like teach tape, the Howard mud when I was a rookie. He would say when, when they, 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. I didn't even say it to Pat. I mean, that's past that is on the week. He's like, man, hell is hilarious. You can tell he's fired up. Sometimes when you get in the end zone, you're just fired up. You don't hear what happens to the football, man. But the team on his back second rushing touchdown of the game. You kidding me, man? And we're going for two.
Oh, so good. So good. Arrowhead was absolutely fucking rockin', man. Goddamn, man. The AOC Championship at Arrowhead, man, something special about it, dog. It is. It is so awesome every time I get to go. A lot of football there is a beautiful thing, man, but those AOC Championship games, man, it's like a fucking holiday that I'll remember for the rest of my life, man.
Well, my home's 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 Tom. 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 home 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. Casey in the sunshine, baby. Was it not Cher? No, it wasn't. It wasn't.
They were playing that song right before we 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. Kid go wrong with it. It's always been beastie boys, but I kind of like to change up. Got to mix it up when you when you're there that off to 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. I love it. I mean, at one point in time, you know, it wasn't that. And you were the sender. You guys were the darling of the NFL. Yeah, I was the do you feel bad for him, guys? And you're not the heel.
I'm just, I'm enjoying, I'm enjoying doing this with the guys together, the guys that we have in there because it's, 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 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 in 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, I'm about to 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 them boundaries even more.
You gotta have officials out there with Jason Kelsey. That is great.

So it was great. It was good being out there and happy to watch you guys make history and look to make more history.
You know what, baby? Let's talk a little Eagles football and absolute shell lacking over there in Philly. I know the birds, the birds fans were going nuts. Yeah, for sure. 55 to 23. The third time you play a team, you guys split it in the season and sure enough, you guys win the split by a lot. I mean, putting up a 50 burger in the playoffs is unbelievable.
for sure. I mean, especially against a good defense, man. Can't turn the ball over, man. How do we feel about the about the birds though, man? 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? Do I? Because part of me and Kyle even brought up is like, you know,
If you stay in Philly and they win, you can go to Broad Street, which is something I always wanted to experience. The last time we were making runs, like there's just the videos you see of 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 them to three and they just, and then you go up there and the very first run, I mean, Sake one.
dashes right through Jordan. I'm a lot of blocked like a diva's are back into four people tripped up Bobby Wagner and a whole bunch of people. And then Saquam broke like four tackles. I'm like, Oh, these dudes about to beat the brakes off these guys. I don't even need to be overquitted. They're like monster. So they're credit. It wasn't over. Yeah, this was the first one. I mean, dude.
one, two, some of the worst tackling I've ever seen, but I mean, you can say it's bad tackling, but I mean, it's so slippery and fast and strong. He's like some of those guys that are just like, they're built like fucking boulders and that you can 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 that's not as easy as it seems. When a guy's moving as fast as he is and a guy's as strong as he is and a 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. Cause they scored that touchdown. I was like, Oh, this is about to be there about to blow the brakes off these dudes. Yeah. That's a hell of a play to fight. Yeah. That's a dagger. Like that on the first play. This is going to be a long day after the leg was probably the next, the next score update we got like a volcano after that fucking touchdown, dude. The next score update we got, it was 14 six. I'm like, yeah, okay. There we go. There's still, 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. They're starting to come back a little bit. And then the next update was like 27 12. I was like, OK, this thing's done. They're there freaking. And that really was the turning point. Like Jane Davis still played a hell of a game. When you go back and watch it, like, like Jane Davis 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 gonna 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 Jane Daniels 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
I 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 Jay and Daz and the Dan Quinn commanders. Yeah. The commander Dan Quinn. Yeah. We'll also see if, you know,
a lot. There's been a lot, a lot of quarterbacks that have won really good year as their first year. That's true. We'll see. Jayden, that's a challenge to you, brother. I want to see it. I know I want to see it. I'm a fan. Yeah, Jason, you officially pulled off the Donna Kelsey. Now about it, man. Keep it in the family. Go to the Eagles and Chiefs game and the playoffs in 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, about to say all the guys that you went to the Super Bowl with or won the Super Bowl with and Shady was there and.
Dude, you could see the look in those guys eyes too. These dudes were so focused and ready to do something. Nice. 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 looking them, they got that feel of like, I'm, I'm not scared of a goddamn thing, man. We're going to go in here. We're going to fight for sure. Fight to the finish. I love that fucking feeling, man. Well, Jason, we have to ask in your famous words, uh, we got to ask, uh, 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 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. But there's a lot of similarities. Nick Siriani 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, uh, I got a lot of love for a lot of the players and coaches over there just being your fucking brother, man. Uh, so it's, uh, we know it's going to be our hardest fucking test yesterday, I'm 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 put 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 front style up. He's going to be stacking the line of scrimmage. He's going to make the Eagles uncomfortable at times and the Eagles. I mean, I was, I was another thing. I'm just so happy for June hurts to have that game right there heading into the Super Bowl.
Because it'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, the passing yards were down the first two weeks of the post season. Then 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 it happened in probably the most meaningful game. So, uh, 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? Dude, I love it. Whenever I see a team doing, I'm like, all right, y'all playing with fire, the ghost of rock. I'm fully, I'm fully aware of the fact that it happens every single meaningful game. I don't think it's the other team doing it at this point.
You think the yields are doing it? 100%. I mean, like, iconically, they put the chief's gear on the statue last time. Yeah, that was chief's gear. It was like a red shirt that said chiefs on it. Was that what it was? I don't remember. They like, they like wrote chiefs in like shark.
It's got to be filled. It's got to get behind. There's a conspiracy I get behind. There's just firing up the entire city getting getting nice and rowdy. Well, we learned about a new NFL rule in the game that the palpably unfair act rule. Yeah, I actually already knew this rule. I didn't know that that's what it was called. I love it. I don't get it. 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 gains. 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 snap the ball. No, snap the ball, dude. What are we doing? Stop looking cheating. Stop cheating. 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 headbuddy our quarterback on a quarterback's knee. So maybe stop jumping over the pile.
How about that? Time it up better, bud. Yeah, he does. But if you don't time it up better, I think after that many times you should get points because at some point what they can just do whatever they want. You're right. I guess you want your backed up so far. Like what is the? I don't know. I get it. Here's what I do know.
Landon Dickerson and Cam Jurgens 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 we're 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 are usually, you know what I mean? Like, 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 changed 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 they had never worked with, that's when it starts to like, Oh, wow, this could be the who knows how this is going to turn out.
Yeah. No, I think that they, those guys have both played a lot for the Eagles. They understand, even when land is at guard, he'll operate. He thinks like a center, landing as the mind of a center. So he always is communicating. He sees the game very similarly for landing. It was probably pretty.
easy from a mental standpoint to go in there, even though he was hobbled with the knee eventually. And then Kay, I'm going back in there. I think that was just like, you know, can this guy function, which he clearly was able to how many times that he goes to yellow to put the pads back on for what she's come on. Just put him back on. There's a lot of tweets. There's a lot of tweets. Appreciate them. Nice. I don't know what else to say.
Well, um, yeah, I guess, uh, I can't, I feel like we kind of already talked about who we rooting for. Who 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, um,
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'm room for those guys too. I'm room for all, I'm room for Philadelphia and I'm room 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 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, if I, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't going to be very happy if the chiefs or if the Eagles, I'm trying to think saying like double negatives right now and 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 way to way of saying, I just want to see a good football game and whoever wins. I'm going to be happy for that guy. You heard of 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 down to Kelsey Jersey. Yeah, we got to get a cut and sew action here where we can get you cheering for the both both teams. Like mom's done. You're in, you're 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 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. Where one of the new merch?
New Heights. All right. Let's take a, let's take a look at Broad Street for some of the best of Eagles fan celebrations because we always know Broad Street's going to get fucking nuts when the, uh, when Philadelphia sports teams, uh, punch their ticket in the championship, man. For sure. The pole climbing reading Inter excellence is fucking hilarious. God damn Philly gets it, man. It's a fun city. It is a fun city.
Check you out with the book. Them with a book. Yeah. Yeah. Now that's it or excellence right there. I couldn't be more happy of all the positive mental, just like therapy that AJ Brown has brought to the city of Philadelphia. So many people are going to be reading this self-help book.
Pre game walking cart smoker. Pre game walking cart smoker. Oh, that's fucking hilarious. This guy 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 in the car? It was a whole fucking pig. He's literally. He's literally roasting. That's amazing. Twist the tea underneath it.
Nice. All right. That's fun. That's hilarious. Six year old, uh, arrested climbing a pole. Let's see that one. You can't arrest the kids. That's not real.
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 a NSC Championship win, man. Is New Orleans Louisiana ready for Eagles fans, man?
Not if they win. I mean, 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 going to 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 freaking 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 tell you, well, my money's all pat my 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 going to go.
on to 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 your work with your worst enemy? Tune in January 29th at eight.
seven central on MTV. So I'm talking about a little MTV shout out. I think that many people in the central time zone that it's worth saying eight, seven central. Why is it always? Why has it done that way? I think there's more people in the West Coast time zone, right? Yeah. 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 now and 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 going to lie. I cannot wait to try this. This is so disgusting. What? 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
Dorito shell, whatever. And it fucking tastes terrible all the time. But I got higher expectations. It is 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. That's the best black raspberry chip, but that's it. You're out of your mind. Craters is incredible. Well, they just got worse for doing Skyline chili.
I think we get a garage beer flavored ice cream. Oh, I thought you were going to say garage beer flavored skylight chili. I was like, dude, no, no, that doesn't sound good to me. But garage beer flavor ice cream sounds better than a beer. A garage beer flavored ice cream? Yeah, that sounds fucking delicious. Oh, all right. 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. If you're out there, you want to ship some dry ice, I will eat it on this podcast because that's how much I love it. I am in. I'm going to be very honest. So if it's bad, I am going to say it's bad. So don't set 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 impairs well with the dairy more than people really think when they first hear it. Just going to put that out there. You just connected sour cream and ice cream. Just saying they're both dairies, the creams, the derivatives of cream. Something tells me that sour, the sour cream that they're serving over there and skyline chili isn't.
I don't think they put sour cream in the sky like the sky is that traditional chili. We both know that. What do you think would be the worst thing for the worst ice cream flavor? What doesn't match up with dairies 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 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 it 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. Oh, some long hats. Pickled long hats ice cream. That's 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.
That's crazy. You just try to make it sound that simple. What about cucumber? 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.
when it wouldn't make it's not like this sounds good. I think pickle ice cream wouldn't be bad. I'm in on, I'm in on try and pick 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 your funky. Were you an espresso like caterer on ice cream, like a coffee flavor ice cream?
No, I love coffee ice cream. I love coffee ice cream. My go-to is butter pecan or praillings and cream. Typically, I get two scoops. I go to the ice cream parlor. I get a cup. Never a cone. 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 fries. 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 texture to it. It's got to be a good like a nice vanilla waffle cone or like something like just like
I'm about to go get some fucking ice cream today. That's 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 can't just. It's very hard. So I'm going to 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, God, I'll like on that shit. But you know why? It's like it's that salty and sweet deal. That's what that's what gets me with the butter began.
I was a big fan of Cold Stone Creamery and getting the cake batter ice cream. Cake brownie in there. God damn it. That's one of my favorites. Brownie and cake batter. You can't fucking. It was so good. Dude, that's a fucking. And then I'd have them drizzle. That's a drop kick to your fucking tonsils right there. 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 free based. Another one I will say 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 like, 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. Like you can pair strawberry with Oreo cookies and cream with butter P.K. and you can like moose tracks. You can pair strawberries with all those. Cake batter, another one. It's just, it just makes sense.
Final four, I'm going to go cooking cream. Yeah. You can't go too creative. I think you've 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 stuff. Cold stuff. I've never had it outside of cold stone. I'll say that.
Right. But goddamn it, I've never had black raspberry chip outside of graders. There's 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. No, you got it. That's it. Cookies and green butter can cake batter and black raspberry chip.
Tell us how we did 92 percenters. People are going to hate this list. This is easily the most 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. 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 an agreement. But I mean, chocolate ice cream is nice. Sucks. That was the bear claw you're talking about. It had the brownie and the child. All right. All right. It was so good. All right. Well, too bad. We already put it up.
Let's keep it moving. Shout out to the New Heights food court. 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, you tell us, I would love to hear and don't be biased. Just give you love both of them. Let's be honest. We know you, you have five, one, three years.

No dumb questions. No no questions brought to you by Intuit TurboTax. Now this is taxes. All right now. All right, we got a poop dollar tweet. Oh yeah, workaholics, baby. At New Heights Show, hear me out. If Philly case, these two both, this was tweeted before. That was decided, I'm assuming. Jason is guests for the coin toss, Hertsekwan, Pat and Travis are captains. Jason rigs a silver dollar with dog poo.
When the official flips the coin and picks it up, they all yell poop. Listen, I do love a good super bowl to new heights. I love a good poop. 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 poop song is going to be landing that side down. It's got to be tails, right? That's got to be the poop down the side. So if it lands tails, you just scream poop down. Well, the poop down is on whatever side you put it on. Or do you put on both sides? It's not even a dollar.
Well, if it is, if it's a silver dollar. Ooh. So if it's a silver dollar, you got to put it on the the tail side. You can't put. Tail side. Can't put poop on the head. Poop on someone's head. Yeah. Yeah. So if it lands heads, then we don't say anything. But if it lands tails, we all got a yellow poop dollar. I think you just yellow 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 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've bringing in Jake and Brandon to this segment. What's up? What we're going to listen to some voicemails. What's up? What's up, boys? I saw you guys. I am already regretting this. Everyone, please stop talking. No, you're not. Jake, Brandon, are you guys feeling? You guys feeling good? Good. Get some dude. I've been, I've been floating.
I was I got a question. How was Arrowhead? I was loud ever. I will say this. Do you ever you ever experience the
The cowboy stadium that rockin like that. Uh, see, the last time they were in that old NFC title game, I was. Jake, the other, the Jets, no, the Jets stadium ever get rockin like that. That life gets loud. I'll give Jets fan some credit. That life gets loud. It does. I haven't been to a playoff game in 15 years, but I was just asking questions. I was just asking two guys from.
You know, devoted fans of their fan base. Yeah, yeah. Guy Hardtop Boys fan Brandon. Guy Hardtop Boys fan, sure. Yeah. Fuck all of you. The moment at Arrowhead, Jake, I don't remember, like, if you had the moment that it was the loudest that 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, cause there was, there was such a lull from that third down. It was like, Oh, shit. We could give Josh Allen one more chance if we didn't. Everybody was doing the math in their head. And there was a lot of clenching going on in that stadium. So it was a lot of like, Oh, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit. And then when 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 that. And that was fucking incredible. It was shaking the walls. That was wild. I will say that. Yeah, which voicemail, which voicemail do you want to hear? People, people want to hear from us this week and see what I don't want to 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 wear, everything. My question is for intern Brandon and jet shake.
Congrats, I'm getting up to the suite. We also have a picture on Twitter. Congrats. Congrats. What do they call it now? The big question. One, do you get to go to the game? And two, what are you all going to 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.
Yeah, thanks. It's weird. It's weird how that voicemail got slipped in here. That's crazy. Trev is our intern Brandon and Jesse. Yeah, why don't you trust really for you first off? Well, the crazy thing is is that all NFL players get two tickets. So Jason, you, I'm pretty sure you know somebody else that you can. This is no longer your choice. But you know, you know players on the Eagles that you could probably get. You want me to ask other players for two tickets for intern Brandon and Jesse? 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 want to know if I'm going to go yet. But you see, I'm going to go where you go. I'm going to go where you go. I'm going to go where you go. I'm not. I'm very watching. I might watch it from Bourbon Street. I'm not going to lie. That sounds more electric than being in that stadium. 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 going to do to you. So that's fine. Nope. I think Jake, what's what's you go first, buddy? Who are you rooting for? They asked what I would be wearing. I will be wearing new heights merch because I'm a perfect motherfucker. So anyway, Jake, why we employ you? Exactly. Who I'm rooting for is a tough question because most of my family lives in Philadelphia. Oh.
Travis is playing. And so if either one of you is buying us tickets, that's probably the team. That's settled. That one. 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 swoop. I don't give a fuck.
This guy just wants to go to the Super Bowl, man. I love it. That's a fair one. That's a fair one. Randy, you're going to give your two cents or you're in with Jake on that. Oh, I can be bought. I can be bought like crazy. My price is low, brother. I will say this. And I've been thinking about this because it's funny when this happens. Jason and I were laughing about this of like, of course, this is the fucking situation we found. 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. It's a good point. I do want to say this, and I do really, really want to say this. To Philly fans, to Chiefs fans, so much of what this show is 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 Jalen and Pat and Andy showed up for an episode that it's, this is gonna 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 deck for, no, it really is. Like I have 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 gonna 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 time to go and 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 going to be fucking brutal. And I want all of them to know that. It's a genuine answer. It's a championship organizations, for sure. Yeah. Both of them, both of them don't get here without being fully, you know, 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 going to give Jason a microphone. And I was like, yeah, and they're like, and just, he's going to fucking say whatever. And I was like, yes. And they were like, Oh, good luck with that. Really? Yeah. They were like, Oh boy, hope you guys can edit. Wow. Yeah. That was, this was like the easiest ask that I've ever had to ask like the chiefs media. Like 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 one more Jason? Yeah, you know, they want to hear what you want to hear. All right, let's hear. 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 thought that was the one. I'll play it. I'll play it. Hey, guys, this is done a long time flip to hear. And I need to know intern Brandon and Jeff Jake, how does it feel that you have gotten the
K fuck, I still per privileges. Um, we know it's hard to get in there and you guys did it. So I 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 signed? So let's see if they break it about.
Uh, the fuck ass filter. It is the... The what filter? I've learned about this recently. It is the what? It's the... They have a name for like how the photos on that camera turn out is what I have learned. And that was the photo that people have been tweeting. But I'll say this about this week.
I'm so confused. I, yeah. And I'm on, I'm online. I know. I don't know. What are you even saying? You're saying focus? You're saying the fuck asked to filter the fuck asked filter. What the fuck is that? Yeah. What does it mean? That's the name they picked for all the way. 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? I don't, I, I'm as confused as everybody else. It doesn't sound like you're anywhere near as confused as us.
The fuck ass filter is just how those photos turn out on that camera. Jake, if I'm wrong, let me out. What camera? Taylor's camera. Taylor's 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. I mean, 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.
We're 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. And Sunday's a marathon. Got to be on your best behavior. You're you're fucking you're meeting everybody. We fucked that up so bad. We were out to hours with goddamn night on like Westport. That was a stupid idea. We were so not ready for the good time. It was a good time. You got to tell everybody where you went on Westport.
We went to Char bar and we went to Kelly's you didn't tell me with Char bar first with Char bar first. Did you get you get some barbecue? Oh, we got those burnins. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. They got the big they got the full wing. They don't split. We didn't do the wings. We got we got like a barbecue platter and then the guy I can't remember if he was the owner and I was like, oh, you got to go to this barn on the street first and we were like, oh, let's fucking go there. Yeah, Kelly's on the corner. Six hours of
I don't know. Jake, how were you feeling that next morning? It was not good. 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 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, 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, she said our names immediately was like, Oh my God, Brad and Jake, finally we were floored.
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's a pro. She's a pro at it. 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 on the 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 pen. That's in the cave. Oh, yeah. I looked you down the eyes and I was like, you got it. You got to clean up the face, brother. You weren't going in the door.
Um, no, it was awesome and travel. Like your friends are a good group of people to watch. Good hang. Like good hang. It's a 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. 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 jet span. That's a jet span. That's not the bars low.
Honestly, just incredibly grateful to have been there. It's awesome. Thank you. No man. It's fun And you already know we keep the good ones around you guys are every part of the the friend group and and they're hanging as as anybody and Yeah, man. I um it was it was a blast enjoying the rest of that chaotic suite once I got up there after the game and after the field the antics on the field afterwards It was uh that thing was rocking. It was nothing but good vibes, man. That was good. It was fun
Yeah, I appreciate you guys saying that about today. Of course. No. One more thing. 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 the rest of my fucking life. I'm gonna be very honestly, you can't, you can't, I am gonna be obnoxious, I'm like, do you know what you're fucking talking to?
We're doing a we're doing performance reviews at work and we say something right now fucking I'm not listening to a goddamn thing So I will say that I was very appreciative of it and I and I did want to 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
When somebody of that sort of like creative caliber page with a compliment, you're kind of like, oh, fuck. And again, I'm going to be a complete narcissist from here on out. 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. Jake, I don't think you have anything to add and said Pete behind the curtain. Brandon's never been humble in his life. So
The business is usual business is usual business is usual business is usual yeah everything is the same you guys want to do this last voicemail which the last hobby horse race oh god we want to revisit it yeah let's go we all right let's do it I do want to say this before we get in that one the amount of people that came up to Jake and we're like oh you're Jake way to throw your sister under the bus last week it's staggering
Well, talking about your sister's favorite hobby. That's a hobby horses. Last week, Judge Steak absolutely blew up his sister's spot when we were talking about hobby horsing and how I think it's absolutely ridiculous and jay size 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 up, sister? I think I just need to set the record traits.
Um, 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 going to 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? Savage. You couldn't make it off to J.V. Tennis. Do we not have a backhand? It's not that hard. Jake, I was varsity. Come on. What are we doing? How many kids even played 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. 10 minutes? 10 minutes? 10 minutes? Slow as shit. Also, I was like, Jay, you can walk a mile in 10 minutes. Jay, you would like you. I just made it worse for myself. All right. But that's fair. More family. All right. My sister can shit on me all or she wants.
Isn't that okay? 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. We got to work on this. We got a 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. 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. Did you put that on a jacket? Were you? Oh, man. What do we do to Jake? I don't think he's ever going to be good enough to make varsity. Just make him the captain. He's going to embrace it then. Yeah.
It's so good. That's awesome. Thank you, leader. All right. That was a loser. Yeah, I'll put you on varsity. But we need those leadership skills on JV. You got to show these kids out. It's done. I don't know what's more impressive. We need some good mentoring. It's a mentor. What did she call it? It's not. She said it's not happy. It's what's called it. It's what's called it. It's what's called it. Horseless, like horse riding without a horse. No, it's what it's. Oh, that's so worse. We're not letting that go. No, it's not even better.
No, it is better that it was like elementary school. 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? All right. I'll get for probably not high school, but like I was in high school. So she was in middle school. Middle school with the difference. All right. She's coming back in with more shit next week. All right. He's probably ignoring me for the rest of my life.
I don't know what's more embarrassing. Middle school hobby horsing or vart, a JV 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? She's guaranteed. She's 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 three years after senior year. I'm not going to be a senior on Jake.
That would have been embarrassing. You were captain of the JB 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. All right. Well, that's an episode.
Jake Brandon, thank you guys for showing up on Arrowhead. And thank you guys for answering some not dumb questions. And that does it for no dumb questions brought to you by Intuit TurboTax. Oh yeah, baby. No, this is taxes.
