Viva Las Vegas.

Ooh. That was pretty good.

Viva Las Vegas.

What else?

Viva.

Las Vegas. Hey.

Oh.

Welcome back to new heights, ladies and gentlemen. We're here presented by way sports and entertainment and brought to you by the all new experience smart money debit card. The debit card that builds credit without the debt, ladies and gentlemen, gets one two for your mom. Hosts are us. I'm Travis. This is Jason. It's true. First time doing this show out here in the desert. New episodes drop every Wednesday during the NFL season, but we are coming to you on a Thursday because the Super bowl schedule is fucked. It's been fucked for quite a long time now. Yeah, but we are in Vegas, baby. Yeah. Subscribe on YouTube and wherever you get your podcast to follow the show on all social media at new heights show with one s and check out the official fan club@newhightshow.com. Also with one s. Jason, why don't.

You tell everybody what we got coming up? We got another great episode lined up. That's right, 92%. We're going to do our Super bowl preview on this episode right here of the big game, including a special Super bowl edition of no dumb questions that you're going to want to check out now.

Right?

And we're also going to talk about my time down in Orlando for the Pro bowl, including my time at Disney World with my lovely family, which is chaos. So. Yeah. But first, as always, as always, new news.

New news coming in high.

Here we go.

New heights. Bracket update. How about that? Let's start this off with some bracket.

New news.

The entire reason for us doing the best NFL team bracket was to get people to vote very unbiasedly, very not persuaded in any way possible.

We've accomplished.

You completely fucked the entire integrity of this situation.

I think I've accomplished exactly what you.

Wanted to get done.

Your argument was that it was going to be Chiefs versus Eagles in the end, and both the Chiefs, you persuaded.

Everyone eliminated to not do that.

I only campaigned for teams that were underrepresented. I just wanted voter turnout underrepresented. I just wanted voter turnout. The swifties have this unrealistic infatuation with the Chiefs and Travis Kelsey. What? And they're only voting based on their love for you, not on their love for the team name. So it wasn't a realistic representation. This is ridiculous that you're just throwing.

Everything on the swifties.

Listen, you think kingdom doesn't listen to the show? All I know is the Bills mafia.

Listens to the show because, no, they're on Twitter. They didn't know about it until you started adding everybody in bill's mafia on Twitter.

I did the same thing with the Broncos and you guys still beat the Broncos. And I was just trying to get voter turnout.

You're ridiculous.

I just wanted people to know about the podcast and to know about the event so that we could have a realistic.

You didn't want everybody to know about it because you literally put gasoline fluid and table pictures on the Internet for Bills fans to get excited to vote for Bills fans. So you were persuading everyone to vote for Bills fans. We're not getting.

I have already said that I'm going to jump through a flaming table. This is only accelerating. Jumping through the flaming table that was already out there. That I was going to do that already. That's nothing new. I was just saying, hey, if you guys do this, I'm going to jump through the table as a sign of victory. I'm not like a bribery.

The elite eight and final four votes in the best NFL team bracket went down over the weekend. And before we get to the final four results, we got to address Jason on Twitter. Yes, that's right. Jason started out accusing jets Jake of trying to skew the election. And the entire time you have been skewing the.

No, no, I'm just trying to do voter turnout. I was just encouraging people to vote and trying to get Bill's mafia to know about it. This is just pure. This is nothing. These are old school political campaign tactics completely within the legalities of campaign.

Yes, I respect it. I respect it.

Thank you.

I think it's ridiculous. Jason tweeted jets Jake, in effort to skew the results, released these polls while I was distracted at Disney World. That's right. He caught you while you were down having fun with the kids. Truly deplorable, whatever the fuck that means. And please, everyone vote based on name only and vote truthfully. We want the winner to be legitimate. Hashtag bills mafia.

Well, I knew the chiefs were already seeing it, so I had to make sure the bills mafia saw it.

Okay, what about the Steelers?

Well, I just wanted to let everybody know.

What about the viking?

I was just endorsing.

What about the overall.

Endorse certain teams? I was just endorsing the Steelers because I like the.

You didn't endorse the Steelers. You only endorsed the mafia.

No, no. In that matchup later in the week.

During the bills and chiefs, Jason tweeted, if the bills win this, I swear on Buffalo Bill's legendary reputation, I will jump through a flaming table, skewing the votes.

Buffalo bill. I didn't know a lot about Buffalo Bill.

Only thing I know about Buffalo Bill is Joe dirt.

Yeah, the skin on the.

Yeah, it puts the lotion on the skin.

But that's how legendary the guy was. A serial killer, named himself after Buffalo Bill.

Please, everyone, vote responsibly. Jason, another tweet. Vote responsibly. A Zippo lighter package and a fucking table.

Yeah, I don't know how that picture got in there. I just took a screenshot.

Yeah. That was in your cart on fucking well. Yeah, Amazon. That's where that came from, winning.

So I was making sure that I was prepared.

Do you one day ship it or was it Amazon Prime? I just got there. By the end of the day, 187.

Was a little bit too much for a plastic table.

Unfortunately, you skewed the votes and completely screwed the chiefs out of winning. So the bills won 53% of the votes. We had a final four vote on Monday. And ladies and gentlemen, we now have the final results. That's right. Matchup one, bills versus steelers. Bills lost because they didn't get skewed against the Steelers.

Well, I actually endorsed the Steelers because I think that the Steelers.

So everybody that you're telling people to vote for keep tried.

I told everybody I liked the Broncos and they got put. I told you early on, Raiders was one of my favorite teams. They got voted out early. I don't think that's true. I just think that the Bills have a good fan base. They knew about the competition, they showed up. The Steelers have a great fan base. They knew about the competition, they showed up.

You're ridiculous.

What is your favorite name? Name. In team sports. In the NFL.

In the NFL.

Out of this final four. Let's just go the final four. Right. What was your favorite name out of.

Those, out of the. I don't even know who's in the final four?

Bills. Steelers.

I was saying Steelers.

We've said it from the beginning. It's the best name in the NFL.

Yeah. What it represents, I think it hits home for us.

It's home because dad worked in the Steel mills. Cleveland is a Steel town, or was not as much as Pittsburgh, but I think know us steel. The people that built this country, blue collar, hard nose, lunch pair, carnagg. That is football. The black and gold looks good. I mean, listen, I'm not saying best fandom. I'm not saying the team I like to root for the most. I'm just saying that is a great team name. And I could not be happier that our bracket has them in the finals against the Minnesota Vikings, even though the Eagles probably should have beat the Vikings. But that's all right. Yeah. The Blue Eagles. The blue Eagles lost to the purple Vikings. Either way, if the Steelers win this, you can't tell me that the most deserving team didn't win. That's all I know.

I don't even know where we're going with this anymore.

All right.

Eagles lost to the Vikings. Vikings 51%.

Yeah. And that part of that, I think the swifties.

Why the fuck are you blaming all the losses on the.

Well, the swifties got very upset that. They got very upset. They don't understand how politics. So they got really accusational of me manipulating votes.

Yeah, so they manipulated some votes.

So they voted against me.

Sounds like they knew exactly what they were doing.

Listen, I think know they didn't vote with their heads and their hearts throughout the whole competition.

No one did because you wouldn't let them.

Bill's mafia did. I know that. So anyways, official championship matchup is between the Steelers and Vikings, the best NFL team name bracket. These are the results throughout. We're going to put this graphic up. I can't see it right now, but.

I know you can.

But most importantly, now that we are down to the final 92 percenters, we will officially reveal what you all have been playing for. That's right. It is time to officially reveal the new Heights trophy, which Travis has yet to see, which is also underneath, which.

Travis also had nothing to do with.

Correct.

This is all Jason.

Listen, we got really excited last year when we saw the trophies.

We.

We saw the Lombardi Trophy. You saw the Lombardi trophy? I didn't even see it. I've seen it before, so I kind of know what it looks like. But you saw it last year. Then Stanley cup and Larry O'Brien Trophy came to my house. We got to see that firsthand. And it got both of us inspiration as to what would be a great trophy to have for new heights. We want to keep doing these fan competitions. We want to keep having. We love competition. We like competing against each other. That's what competition means. So we decided to make a trophy that would honor this show and be a good representation of what it stands for. And what more could we model this trophy after than everyone's most prized possessions? Travis?

Everyone's most prized. Our children.

Look at this. The golden baby people feature eyes on the new Heights trophy.

My gosh.

Isn'T it glorious? I don't know if it's a he or she. There are not any appendages south of the equator on them or her, so we will not know or disclose that.

But either way, that's a thick old baby.

It's a thick baby. Little few facts about the golden baby. The golden baby is approximately 104 pounds over 4ft tall.

This thing is 104 pounds.

104 pounds. Yes. It's got some. How the fuck did he get. It was a costly expense to get it all the way to Vegas. They asked if we should make it lighter and smaller, and I declined because I wanted it to be over the top. It was modeled after my daughter, Bennett. We didn't like the look on its face and we wanted it to be fatter, so we ended up changing the dimensions to what you see before you. It took over six months to create this. Bad boy or girl? It. Yeah. Winners of new Heights competitions will win either the 24 karat gold solo cup that the beer Bowl cup two contestants won last year. That's right.

Oh, this is gnarly.

Or a miniature version of that, which.

Will be pretty good.

24 karat gold plated. About yay high. I think it's like eight inches. I don't know. Is that about eight inches?

Shorten down a little bit.

My inches. This is what we've been waiting to unveil to you guys.

This is fucking ridiculous.

The base is what they call a perpetual base, Travis, meaning the trophy is not attached to the base. So everybody that wins a new heights competition will get a plaque into the base. And then once there is no more room to put plaques, we just hang up the base and we put a new base in. So it's Stanley Cupish. As you guys know, one of the first bits we talked about on the show was signing babies. Every winner of a new heights competition will have the right to sign the baby engraving eventually. Well, it's just going to be Sharpie, I think. We tried to do the engraving, didn't. Yeah, they said they don't know it's going to work out, so they advised just Sharpie. So we're going to do Sharpie. But only winners are allowed to sign the baby.

This is so massive.

Yeah, we'll put up the graphic for the miniature baby. I think I'm leaning. Should we do miniature versions of the baby that people can put, like on a bookshelf or should we do the solo cup just for every winner?

Solo cup looks sweet, man.

Should we put it on a mount, though?

Yeah, give them a little mount.

The miniature golden baby that we made it to the size that this is then, like a shot glass, and it's still removable, so you can do, like, a shot out of it. Oh, well, do that. Do that.

Yeah.

All right. So I guess we're doing that. That solves that. But anyways.

Yeah, dude.

This is for all future composition. We want this bad boy or girl or it to live forever in all of its glory and represent the wonderful 92 percenters. Whoever wins the bracket challenge will be the first person who will have the right to sign the baby.

I have to give a round of applause. You outdid yourself.

We did it good.

You outdid yourself with this.

I don't know what I'm clapping for.

This is unbelievable.

You're a fan.

I am. I'm a fan of it.

You had your hesitations going in.

Yeah. I still don't think it needs to be 100 pounds.

Yeah, but, I mean, it's cool that it is. All right.

No, it just makes it harder to move.

It's cast bronze.

It's cast bronze.

Cast. It's cast. Initially, I think it was going to be 150 pounds. We got them to thin it out a little bit, went on a little bit of a diet.

That thing's like a 1970s car.

It's half Benny, half Buddha. I mean, it is Buddha esque. And who doesn't love a good buddha, if we're being honest?

All right, now I'll tell you what the gold looks. Yeah, it's nice. Gosh, that's massive, dude. I'm impressed. You guys actually put.

Everyone's most prized possessions are babies. We got to give it a name. Right now. It's just the golden.

Golden baby. Yeah.

Is that the name? Yeah.

Let's take it to a vote.

Little fan vote.

Once you skew it.

I don't know if you guys know, but my vote is for golden baby.

Yeah, we'll vote. You guys go ahead and send us some, what? Some requests.

I don't know.

Me neither.

They're already naming my unowned cat, so, I mean, they'll come up with something without even asking for it.

We'll leave it up to you guys. 92 percenters. Do your job, baby.

All right, in more new news, we have been nominated for podcast of the.

You got to shout out, Kayla.

Oh, yeah. It's a good point. Is giving me credit. I did nothing. I told our wonderful Kayla, what is your official position? I don't even know what to say.

Intern.

We can't call her intern. That's Brandon. Brandon's intern. Kayla.

Produce.

Showrunner, CMO, chief marketing officer, CMO. CMO. Kayla. She went into great detail to find a company that could produce this vision and communicate it back and forth. This. Make what you see before you. I don't know if we should applaud her or not. You guys be the deciders on that.

Again.

The same people that make this baby are the same people that make the Concaf Golden Cup.

Concaf.

It's like the north and South America concoct Northern South America cup that the soccer teams play for.

Oh, nice.

Yeah, it's like a legit. I mean, these guys are good.

I mean, I could tell they're pretty damn. They're damn good. There's some good detail on that thing.

Yeah.

Looks nothing like my niece, but the thing looks good.

No, I don't know. We didn't want it to look. I like it.

Wanted a more. That's a smirk. I guess I see the smirk now.

You got to look. It's kind of. But you can tell. You look close enough. All right. I Heart radio podcast awards and more new news. We've been nominated for podcast of the year, best sports podcast, and best overall ensemble at the 2024 I Heart Radio podcast Awards. Shout out, as always, to the 92 percenters for continuing to support the show right now, you can vote for us daily for podcast of the year through February 18. And for one special group of fans that have joined the show this year, Bill's fans. That's a good point. Bills Mafia has definitely joined the show. Swifties, we're talking to you right now. Let's rig this vote, please. This is not for me. This is for Travis. Please go and vote. Please go and vote for the new heights show as the podcast of the year. We are going to add a link in the show description where you can find where and how to vote right on the screen. The full list of nominees for podcast of the year are as follows. Crime junkie. Oh, yeah, that's a good one. The daily.

Those two right there.

Daily is pretty serious. My favorite murder crime. Favorites. Crime pods are favorites. Normal gossip. I mean, I kind of like big time gossip on purpose with Jay Shetty.

I don't know about that one.

The retrievals scamanda. It's like scam. And Amanda smartless. Know that one. Big fan of smartess. Okay. Wiser than me with Julia. Luis Dreyfus. All right, Elaine. Okay. We're in good company if we're even being close to nominated with any of these.

Yeah, that's pretty damn cool.

But I don't think any of them have a golden baby.

92% is. You know what to do. Yeah, you know what to do. Let's move on. How about Mama Kelse on the prices, right? Come on down. All right. Now, mama was up there. Vanna Whiten, she was up there doing her thing, showing off some brand new.

Cars, which nobody won.

The Super bowl themed episode of the prices, right this week. If you haven't seen it, make sure you check it out. Mama's up there doing her thing, representing the Kelsey household, and she got to meet Drew Carey.

Cleveland Rocks. Cleveland Rocks. Cleveland Rocks. Cleveland Rocks Ohio.

Cleveland rocks electric. The Drew Carey show. For those of you that don't know.

That one, showing our age a bit. Yeah.

And what's ironic is that my mom actually took us. We mentioned this before, took us to a Drew Carey show at the new Brown stadium when first energy had just got built.

That was the only time we went to.

The only time we never went to again. We went to the municipal stadium back in the day, but it was shared between the, at the time, Indians and the Browns. It was awesome to experience that day with Drew Carey show. And then I'm sure it was awesome to kind of go full circle for mom as she got to meet Drew Carey over the weekend.

No doubt.

But most importantly, she got to spin the big wheel, dude. I got to ask her what it feels. I'm jealous. Yeah.

I haven't talked to her about it yet. I want to know how heavy it is, because it looks like it's pretty heavy. What do you think? The big wheel weighs so more than.

The baby, dude, I know. People struggle to get it go all the way around. People struggle to get it to go all the way around.

Somebody's made this joke, but you can imagine somebody, like, getting caught on one of them. You do that, and the little thing gets caught in your pocket, and then you just get sucked into the.

Because they have, like, grandma's on that thing.

Is it like one of the, you know, the saws now that if you.

Touch your finger, grandma's nick gets caught in that thing, just chews her up. It's like final destination right there.

It'll pop her hip out. Then once your hip goes, it's all downhill from there.

Tuck and roll, grandma. Tuck and roll.

Well, the price was wrong, because nobody won anything.

You love to see winners on the is right.

The best. You know who else was on the is right? Head coach, Indianapolis Colt Shane Syich.

Really?

He was. And Bob Barker messed up the order.

Bob Barker?

Yeah. It was a while ago.

I was about to say, this doesn't, this is previous.

Previous.

Shane Steichen was on the prices.

The prices, right.

This had to be.

Got the order wrong. And Shane said, it's not my bid. Because, you know, when you go on your last bid or your first tobid or whatever, there's a particular order. Bob screwed up the order. Shane, he corrected, it's not my bid, it's his bid.

He corrected Bob Barker.

I'm running the show. It's your bid. And then he bid by $1 the next bid and lost.

I don't want a piece. I want the whole thing.

Got some free luggage.

All right, now. Nice. You got some free luggage out of that.

I think that's what he told me.

That's got to be the most disappointing. He walked away. Oh, would you, yeah. Some toomey luggage.

I mean, it rolls really nice, I'm not gonna lie.

Yeah. The zippers break a lot, though.

Do they? I've had some toomey's.

I've had some Toomey's break.

That's just because you're shoving so much stuff in. Uh, more new news. Travis invented a haircut. That's right.

The fuck out of here.

Moving on. In hair related news, it appears the New York Times has credited Travis with inventing the fade.

This is ridiculous. Unbelievable.

The headline of the article reads, they'll take the Travis Kelsey hairdo. That is not since Jennifer Anderson has a haircut become so popular. Barbers in America and abroad. This is what these are. There's quotes around this. So this isn't even inter, this is directly from the article.

Who is in quotes saying this?

Whoever wrote the New York Times article, which is probably a very legitimate pundit writer. Yeah. I don't know.

One barber in New Brunswick, Canada, said he received at least 50 requests.

They're just quoting one barber before that. It says that. It says, barbers in America and abroad. So overseas, like, not even just America. They're asking for the Travis Kelsey overseas.

Thanks for whoever wrote this article. I had more barbers attack me for not even having anything to do with, like, I didn't want anything to do with, listen, you invented the didn't. It's, I didn't.

What better month to credit a white man with inventing the fade than February?

Gray on the first, too. Came out on the first. I didn't want anything to do with this. I didn't want anything to do with it. I saw this, and this isn't real. This isn't true. Yeah, it was absolutely ridiculous. I said this yesterday at the podium. I didn't invent the faye, but I know where you can get a good one. And that's patty cuts, baby.

Patty cuts.

Patty cuts. Shout out to patty cuts. Philly native. Go. Birds tatted on them. Yeah, but this is pretty ridiculous. But it happens more often than you think. Like, I remember last year, Bryce Harper haircut was popular. The pat Mahomes has been popular in Kansas City amongst kids for years.

It's like half.

It's the mohawk to the.

It's like a mohawk. Like a frohawk, but it goes all the way.

Oh, it's the patty Mahomes. Yeah. Kids get excited. I mean, I remember when we were kids, I wanted my hair blonde like Eminem. So mom got the spray on. If you stood out, stood outside long.

Enough, it turned blonde. I remember that, man.

The 90s, baby.

That was real.

That wasn't getting any better, baby.

Was it for Eminem or was it for JT?

It was either him or Justin Timberlake.

I think it was JT. JT had the sun in. Eminem was, like, straight. Like bleach, right?

I don't know.

Yeah, you're right. All right. Me neither. The barber that interviewed was quoted as saying that Mr. Kelsey's haircut is a buzz cut fade.

Mr. Kelsey's?

Mr. Kelsey's. That's your. You're old enough to be Mr. Kelsey now.

How about that?

A buz cut fade. It's easy to replicate. It's basically zero on the side until you get to the top. It's a fun, easy haircut that I can do quick in 20 minutes.

Okay.

Is that accurate? Travis, does Patty cuts get it done in 20 minutes?

No patty cuts. Make sure. Yes.

What takes longer the beard. What is going on with your beard right now, by the way? We haven't talked about this.

We're growing.

It's long. It's going bigger. Yeti.

It's been rolling, baby.

When's the last time you trimmed that thing down? Months.

Yeah. It's been before Christmas.

Is this your playoff beard?

Yeah.

Is that an ode to your hockey roots?

My hockey roots? It's also an ode to just, like, the ups and downs of the season. I just feel like when I look in the mirror, I just feel like, I don't know.

Rugged?

Yeah, rugged. Like I've been working for something I've been focused on. Feel I've been working towards.

That's a working man's beard right there.

I haven't been worried about anything but getting shit done.

Yeah, I feel that, and I feel it.

I feel the power of it.

You think it gives you power? Like Samson from the Bible. His hair. Yeah.

I've been playing way better since I've been growing it.

I mean, your playoff stats have been pretty unreal.

There you go.

Well, that's about all we have for.

Yeah. Can you guys stop telling people that I invented the fade? I didn't, all right? I walked in a barbershop one day, didn't even know what I was getting. I didn't invent the fade. Last bit of new news. We have to update on the shirtless Jason Kelsey t shirts that homage put together for us.

Shirtless Jason Kelsey. That's just, like, a funny thing to say. All right, good.

Yeah. Dude, your chest hair on this thing is fucking hilarious. Over 3000 t shirts have been sold, and we've raised over 50,000 for the Patricia Allen fund benefiting the John R. O'Shea Children's Hospital in Buffalo. If you haven't gotten yours yet, please check out homage.com newheights.

Yes.

Got that thing in some bills. Mafia colors, too. Just for all you up there in New York, man.

Yeah. Thank you, everyone, for supporting. Yeah, so I got.

Yeah, let's talk sponsors.

Okay, cool.

You want to talk some sponsors?

Let's talk.

How about prize picks? That's right. Prize picks is America's number one fantasy sports app. With over 3 million members and with.

The big game right around the corner, prize picks is the easiest and most exciting way to turn every game changing moment into 100 x your money. That's 100 times. For those of you just tuning in with as little as four correct picks, you can earn or turn $10 into 1000.

Want to play alongside some of price pick's favorite players like rapper Meek Mill or comedian Andrew Schultz? You can now find community plays under the promos tab of the app to view entries from some of the biggest names in prize picks community.

And now for the portion of this ad read, labeled personal experience to be read by talent outside of Travis and Jason Kelsey. Because we are active NFL players and cannot participate. You're still playing well currently, but you know who can. That's right. Our intern, Brandon. Get on in here.

Excuse me. You got to clear. They're clear. They're legally far enough away. Hey, guys, if you don't know Pat Mahomes yards are still discounted. All he needs is 1 yd for you guys to win. I would also look at potentially a CMC touchdown and an Isaiah Pacheco touchdown I think are probably great picks this weekend.

But that's all I've got for you.

Enjoy the game, guys. Legally come back on. I have to leave, get away from my baby. So hopefully Brandon did you guys right. And hopefully you guys make some money. And if you want to start making picks, go to prizepix.com new heights and use the code new heights for a first deposit match up to $100.

Again, that's prizepix.com newheightscode newhights for a first deposit, match up to $100. Pick more. Pick less. It's that easy.

Beer sports.

That's right, Jason. And bdubs has everything you could possibly need while you watch the game.

Everything.

Yeah.

So if I tell you I need wall to wall tvs, wings in any of BDuB's 26 sauces and dry rubs, and a great beer selection, you're telling me bdubs has all those things?

That's pretty specific. And yes, they have those specifically. It's just fun to watch the game at the sports bar with your friends, man.

All right?

Now we're out of the house, Jason.

I was out of the house.

No, you're still out of the house.

I am out.

You're fucking killing it right now, man. You haven't been in the house in, like, a week and a half.

I went to the Pro bowl last week on Tuesday.

Yeah, we're going to get to it.

I came back to Philadelphia for less than 24 hours and came straight here to do this with you.

Dude, that's electric. And we appreciate you getting out of the house, Jason. This is a rare sighting of a wild Jason Kelsey out of the house. All right, now, before we get to our Super bowl preview, Jason, like we just said, got out of the fucking house. In our favorite segment that is brought to you by our friends at accelerator active energy drink. And my, oh, my, is the cherry ice pop popping right now. Damn, this shit's good. So drink accelerator active energy drink. And it's available at Hy Vee, Meyer and quicktrip, but also Amazon. You throw it in your Amazon carts. Jason, you and Kylie and the girls got out of the house and went down to Orlando to the Pro bowl. We did, man. I'll tell you what. I saw some of the videos, man. A lot of fomo, man. A lot of fomo I missed out on. That looks so, dude, the giant churros you're talking about? Yeah.

Oh, yeah. Disney World was. Yeah, we missed.

Definitely. I would have murdered you in the snapping competition.

We both did. Used to. Long snap.

Did you used to.

You're still the backup long snapper. Yeah. See, I got too fat. I can't look.

The more you can do, man.

And put both my hands over my head anymore, so I couldn't do it anymore.

Although I do think you got to have a long snap. Most teams be able to look between your legs.

Yeah, exactly. Some dudes can.

And I'm not going to lie. We're going to get this.

We're going to get Cam blind snap, but not me.

Before you got into any of the Pro bowl competitions, you gave us this quote. I don't even know what you do in the Pro bowl anymore, but it's down in Orlando. So I get to take my kids to Walt Disney World. Not off to the Super Bowl, Walt Disney world. But as long as Wyatt gets to see Elsa, I don't think it really matters. So, first and foremost, did Wyatt get to see Elsa?

She did. And there are some adorable videos I can't wait to show. Yeah. Her, Elliot and Benny all got to meet Elsa and Anna, as well as a bunch of other characters, Mickey and Minnie. And they're still at the age where when the characters are right up on them terrified or terrified, it is the.

Coolest thing in the world. That's what happened when I just saw.

This fucking baby today, was here and saw that baby, she would shit her pants, which she is fully potty trained now.

Wyatt, come on down.

Yeah, that would terrify her. I think they're like the ten foot. At about ten foot they are like on cloud nine. That's the coolest thing ever. Inside of 10ft, they're like, daddy, pick me up and hold me right now. In particular, Anna did a great job of warming them up in the little section of Epcot that Anna and Elsie located. And there were some really cool videos. And watching the fireworks at Magic Kingdom, always magical.

Something about that castle and the fireworks going off.

Um. It was the most fun I've seen them have essentially their entire lives.

I love that. Well, that was the fomo that I had. Missing out on that, seeing their smiles. We'll go back and all you guys. The NFL also put out a video of the whole family at Disney. It looks like you and Ellie went on the teacups ride.

Of course. Well, yep, we went on the Teacups. Wyatt still will not go on any rides. She's a little scaredy cat.

I was like that, though.

You didn't go on the rides?

I wasn't big on rides when I was. I actually, even through high school, I was kind of like, fuck roller coasters.

That's weird because I've always thought that Ellie matched your intensity and kind of looks like you, if we're being honest.

When I was a blonde, when I.

Was little, she is not afraid of rides at you.

Did you get that thing turning pretty good?

First we didn't spin it because I didn't know what her reaction was going to be. And then by the end of it, me and dad were like cranking it full on.

She loved it.

Like, we were at the county fair.

We were moving and she kept looking.

Up, kept peeking his head out.

That's awesome. What was the best snack of the day?

You know what? I had a footlong hot dog that day. Churro.

A foot long hot dog.

Yeah. A big. Also had a dole whip. Perhaps the most underrated thing at Disney World. I found this out due to one of our resident Disney experts. Mom was one of them. But then Kylie's family friend Betsy was on the trip with us to big Disney person.

Love that.

She knew right away who isn't magic kingdom to go to the. Oh, my God. What are those things called? Dumplings. Is it dumplings or pot stickers? No, spring rolls.

Okay, spring rolls.

But they had, like, a cheeseburger.

Spring roll, and a cheeseburger.

Spring roll pizza. Like pepperoni and cheese. Spring roll. Dude, it was the best thing I had, probably the entire trip.

Yeah, that's sneaky.

I could have ate.

Give us a number.

18. I could have ate 18 of those.

Things and not even get fake when.

He got a dole whip afterwards.

What's the dad hack for taking a family to Disney?

Jason, there is no hack. The dad hack is have zero plans going in and just go with what the day is. Have, like, one or two things that you got to hit. And outside of that, it's a wild card.

Explore.

The kids are going to be very unpredictable. Know where your exits are, know where your restrooms are, and just don't count on anything going according to plan.

Know where your exits are, and just know plan.

In life, occasionally, you're going to have to get them. As a dad, part of your job is to snap them out of the temper tantrums and the bad moods.

With candy.

With candy. Fun. Something, right? Yeah. Or discipline. It's one of those three. It's either, hey, and then usually we will leave.

Yes.

That usually doesn't work, especially with kids that young, and they don't give a shit. So you got to go straight pretty much to candy or like, hey, let's play hide and go seek. And then you just run and hide someplace, and then they're like, oh, where's that at? You got to have some strategies built in. I did that one time, and dad was like, that's pretty cool what you did there.

Nice.

Learn from the best.

All right, now let's talk some more off the field Pro bowl action, though. Love seeing you guys up at Disney World, but it was pretty entertaining watching you be a part of these competitions because you kind of were competing, but you were really just there for support.

No, I was competing. Kelsey doesn't show up and doesn't compete. We talking about.

You arrived in Orlando. The Eagles made sure to point out you were wearing flip flops. Of course you don't leave home without them.

I don't even know why it's a story at this point.

The dude cardigan always rocking. Why do you think people keep making a big deal about you and flip flops?

It's just become a thing now.

You've had the same pair for what, decade now?

I broke one pair of them, and these are really quality sandals, so they lasted for a long time. These ones right here are probably two years old, but I had the initial pair before that for easily. They had some miles on.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And then you went out and got the exact same pair. Same thing.

Same exact pair, same company. I really like Olakai. I don't know if we're supposed to.

I thought that was the true religion sign.

No. Olakai. Hawaiian company. They make sandals in particular, but also other footwear, but they still offer, like, the arch support in them. So it's not just, like, a piece of flat, like, foam.

Yeah.

So it feels good, and I think they kind of look nice. Why are you laughing at that?

I just didn't think you cared about them looking nice, that's all.

I mean, if it's functional and high quality and it looks good, I'm all for it.

You're in. All right. Okay. All right.

Look at Jason.

Fashion sense. There were also some great clips of you and the family going around playing with the girls, man. Of course, it's dad time on the field. You swinging the girls around on the field, and it's no meeting Elsa from frozen. But the girls did have fun out there. You could tell they were laughing around and going through the obstacle courses together.

They still got terrified because they saw the mascots. The dolphin. I'm serious. Made Wyatt cry on the sideline, try to come up to her, dude, do you realize what's going on right now? She's fucking bawling her eyes out at you.

We got to have better.

It was actually really cool.

I wasn't the only to have better awareness.

A lot of the guys had their kids on the sideline, so Penne Sewell had his, I think, his child on the sideline. There were kids kind of. It was a really fun day for the families. No doubt about it. I also get, like, I don't know, like, orthopedic people keep responding, you know, like how Uncle Don used to spin us around in circles.

Yeah.

Like, I do the same thing with the girls, but apparently I saw it. Their shoulders aren't all the way developed.

Yeah, dad used to say that, too.

Yeah.

How are your shoulders?

I mean, they've held up for 13 years in the NFL.

Mine are still going.

Yeah. Hey, what do those orthopedics know?

Losers would.

They read a book.

They get a lecture on joints.

Kelsey.

Shoulders.

Yeah.

Just be careful, I guess. And lastly, before we get into the intense Pro bowl action, you guys were competing. Your tails off. A security guard laughed at you, Jason.

No, he laughed with me. With me.

No, he was laughing at you, Jason. You're the better looking Brother from a fan in the stands. And the security guard laughed his ass off. Had a grand old time with that line. And pretty funny. Thought it was pretty good. Yeah, well, it's pretty funny that you're the sexiest man alive finalist. You got the last line jokes on you.

Security guard.

Yeah.

Hope you're actually really nice. He was home. Yeah.

He's probably the prettier brother. That's what it is. I know that joke. All right, let's get serious. Talk about some serious shit that went down on the Pro bowl. All right, initial thoughts. What do you think about the new Pro bowl game format?

I loved it, and I think, more importantly, all the players like it as well. Here's my whole thing about something being enjoyable to an audience. If the people on the field are having fun, you already know the audience is having fun.

I'm with you on that.

And I think it was evident throughout the week that guys really enjoy doing the different games and activities. It's something new. It's still a competition, but it's not too serious. So guys are kind of having fun with it. And then the flag football was surprisingly, that was the first time I've honestly watched it in a long time. I mean, I can't remember the last time I watched flag football. I really enjoyed watching, like, it was obviously not the caliber of football that the NFL is, but guys are making the very first drive. Tyreek Hill got the ball in space and was running all over the place like the little pikachu he is. And he.

Dude, that sums up his.

Sure, it was a good way to compete, have fun, and still showcase. I think some of the athleticism and strength, tug of war, the gridiron gauntlet, all the games, they've done a good job of incorporating all that stuff, and I think it's only going to get better as they continue to do it in future years and come up with new things.

I really had fun. What events did you compete in?

So I did the snapshot, which was new this year, where they had a bunch of centers do a long snapping drill. I did the gridiron gauntlet. I stood on the sled and I was pushed on that super hard. And then I had to snap the ball for the flex football. Me.

And they made you snap?

I don't know why. I mean, it was completely pointless, I think.

Did you roll any good snap?

Well, I didn't have to roll the easiest freaking job in the world. The hardest thing was being like, okay.

You didn't have any three techniques to help out?

Yeah, nobody's. I was. I'm actually not allowed to block. They were blitzing. I'm like, can't touch you. It's against the rules. Sauce Gardner got an interception right in front of me, and I was about to grab the flag. I was like, am I allowed to tackle? Am I even on the field right now? I don't know what the rules were. There was actually Madison from the USA. Women's flag.

Yeah.

The national team, which shout out to flag football is going to be an Olympic sport. Not this Olympics, but next Olympics.

We're going to dominate that one.

I cannot wait. We're going to dominate it.

I can't wait to see what other countries are going to be in this and what their offense looks like.

Right. We're going to kill them. It's going to be annihilate them. He's New Zealand.

All looking lateral all day rugby.

Can't wait to see what they look like. Flag football. They're going to be doing their haka straight to the bus.

When we were out in Hawaii, dude.

I mean, it's dope.

It's pretty sweet.

It is. It's definitely cooler than. Remember the titans, strong side, left side, which never made any sense. What is the left side? Is he just saying the left side is the strong side? Because it was really strong side, weak side, strong side, weak side? Or, like right side, left side. But it wasn't. It was strong side, left side. What the fuck does this have to do with the strong side?

I don't know. We got to get with the.

What if the left side is the strong?

Whoever produced that movie and wrote that movie, why the fuck was it strong side, left side? Yeah. Can you get that to us? It never made sense as a football player. I'll tell you what, that Georgia verse, that Motherfucker worked.

Who?

The Georgia verse.

The Georgia verse?

Yeah. All right. The first Pro bowl event you took part in was sunshine, was a lead blocker for the game, baby, like your life depends on.

He blocked four people on that play.

It was unbelievable.

It's the best goddamn block I've ever seen in my life.

It was like the water boy.

It was the exact same water boy. It's almost like one of them took it.

The first Pro bowl event you took part in was called snapshots. As you just mentioned, this was more.

Of a long snapping competition. We were snapping to a target that was 13 yards behind us. So I reverted back to the technique of I was a long snapper in high school. Travis was actually my long snapper in high school.

All right now.

So I still had that technique down. And the first one I did in warm ups, I rifled through the five hole.

Right through it.

Straight through.

Yeah, they showed and I was like.

Whoa, I might be on to something right now. I'm feeling it. Then I single snapped on through the five hole and I'm like, dude, I'm not practicing anymore. So I was first to go. And I remember so the NFC and AFC centers both were in the competition and each of the AFC and NFC's long snappers were in the competition. I was the first one to go of the whole competition and I asked the Paulo, our long snapper, I was like, should I just try and get us some points and get on the board as the first off or like, what should I do? And he's like, man, to be honest, you're pretty good at snapping. I think you might want to go at the five hole. And I was secretly hoping he was saying that because I wanted to hit a five.

Go for the gold, baby.

All I wanted to do. So all I needed was the okay from my team. Hey, go for that.

This is what we're doing. It's either all or nothing.

I started going at it. I was like, man, this is way hard to warm ups. Everybody's looking at me.

I'm not going to lie. I started chuckling because you could tell you looking between your legs, the blood was going to your head with each and every. You could tell you started getting a little red every time you would come up. You would stumble a little bit.

Yeah. I was also getting embarrassed.

Peer panic. And then you hit one with a good guy.

Broke the camera that was back there, not a boy. The camera crew had me sign the camera that I broke.

The only way to get that was the only one to get. Shoot it. You got to shoot it.

Even when I played hockey, I was a big fan. Of the five hole.

Five hole maybe, right? Nutmeg them.

Nutmeg. Five hole was hard to hit.

You guys are a bunch of gibronis, man. I would have been fucking lacing the five hole.

I think you would have got, dude, if I hit the five hole, you get hit the five hole.

Yeah. I was lightweight, licking my chops. Like I would thrive in this competition. Dude, it was fun competition. Well, the next event we saw you in was something called gridiron gauntlet, which is a relay between both conferences, doing different challenges woven all throughout it, if that makes sense. And you were a part of the last leg of the relay, really putting your weight into things, standing on the sled, being pushed. So that's how you contributed. Put the old man on there, at least. Explosive out of three offensive linemen that were up there. And of course, you guys won.

We did.

And your strategy? I like the little sinking of the hips.

Me and Coach DeMarcus Ware were talking right before the challenge, and I was like, do you think I should sway with it and hit the backside of it? And he's like, no, check this out. And he did exactly that. And I was like, oh, that's definitely the strategy. And we went into it, I knew I was going to have to do something because I think I'm heavier than Miles Garrett, but to be honest, I don't really mean. He's pretty big.

That dude's massive.

Yeah, it's not that big of a size disadvantage, but I think I'm a little fatter. Well, I'm definitely way fatter, but he's more muscular.

Dude, you're way more ripped than Miles.

Shut. Dude, don't patronize.

Look at you, dude. Hey, look at. Those tits are fucking coming right through that t shirt. Stop.

Anyways, so I knew I was going to have to do something to try and level the playing field. I really probably didn't have to do anything, though, because Panay, Sewell and Tristan, worst. That's probably the best double team you could have in the NFL. I mean, those dudes are big and strong and explosive and fast. Yeah, and.

Probably exactly why you guys won. And the clip of you giving the strategy of the sled, the cool running sled, I felt like I was saying, sanka, you dead, man.

Feel the rhythm, feel the rhyme.

Feel the rhyme.

Get on. What is it? Get together. It's Bob's lifetime. There's definitely not get together. I don't forget.

All right, let's get out of here before we get in trouble. Sure, dude. The face in this clip, I mean, I know that face. That's the excitement you had when you met the Phillies mascot.

It is.

That's that face.

That's pure excitement. It's pure adrenaline. Adrenaline and dopamine flowing through my face.

I love it, man. Two and o in your events.

Two and o.

Two and o.

The NFC dominated the events. I don't know the AFC because I won one or two, but the AFC dominated the game, so it was close. The actual football portion. The AFC killed us, but the events is what won the NFC the entire competition.

You were also part of the flag football game snapping like you said. And you said you kind of liked it better than the old format, right?

Yeah, of course I hated the old format. I'm a lineman. Think I enjoyed pass blocking for fun? No, I did not enjoy it. This was great. I snapped one. Had to do nothing and just watch really athletic guys make ridiculous plays all day. It was fantastic.

Nice. How do we get centers more involved in this, though? I mean, we got to have at least one down where all linemen have.

To be on the center. I think I speak we got all centers in saying that we are perfectly fine with the level of involvement we're already in.

No, we need to get you guys out there. There has to be at least one down per drive where you use nothing but offensive linemen. Got to make it more interesting.

So you want actually the offensive lineman. I think they don't want big guys running plays. They said because the ball clubs are nervous that the big guys are going to get hurt. I think they just made that up because they didn't want to have to deal with big guys saying, throw me the ball. There's no way that the clubs care that much.

There's no way.

I think everyone loves when the big guys try and do something athletic. Yeah, everyone loves a thick six, so just give the people they want. I want to see Tristan worse covering Toronto Armstead. I want to see that.

I want to see who want to.

Yes.

I want to see Sewell and Miles Garrett in one on one.

Well, we.

What? You know what mean.

I mean Sewell's a sneaky athlete.

Sneaky?

Yeah.

There's nothing sneaky about that man's athleticism. Him, he's like the biggest, fastest, strongest man on the field at all times.

Yeah. I'm not going to disagree with that. I never thought he was that tall until I met him down there. I think it's just because he's so wide on tv, he doesn't look that tall. And then you see him in person, like, oh, not only is he wide.

He plays with good leverage. He's tall, plays with good leverage.

He does. I think this is the first Pro bowl I've ever won. I've been on, like, the winning team me and Lane were talking about. I don't think we've ever been on.

The winning team in the still. Was still. If whoever won it got the money.

Yeah. Gosh, I'd be throwing that extra cash down on the roulette table. I think I'm just going to walk by and put a bet on eight and seven for an honor of my man Travis Kelsey right here.

It's me, guys.

Every time I walk past the roulette table, just boom, boom.

Black 15.

Black 15.

Yeah.

How many numbers do I got to put the money down on? I thought eight and seven was more than.

You got to spread it out.

Significant. About black 15.

Patty Mahomes.

Okay. All right.

13. Your favorite number?

13 is my favorite number.

Not a bad number to throw it down on.

So I should put it down on four numbers. I mean, I guess it's increasing my chances of hitting.

Yeah. Name of the game, baby.

It's all about chance.

Just give me a chance, coach. I promise you, if you put it down enough times, it'll hit.

That's Ed Kelsey strategy right there.

Kick you right in the nuts. All right, that does it for out of the house. Jason, I just want to commend you, man. You are killing it right now. You are out of the fucking house. Taking over the fucking world right now. From the Bills game to right now, you have been fucking killing it.

All right, let's get to the reason why all of you are listening to the show. Super bowl preview. That's right. I don't know if you guys know this, but we got a pretty big game ahead of us this week between the two best teams in the NFL game of my life, the Chiefs and the 49 ers at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada. How's the prep been feeling all week compared to the last, what, three Super Bowls you guys have played in?

Yeah, man, it's exciting. It's exciting. We're over at the Raiders facility. Everybody over there has kind of made us feel at home and helped us out getting acclimated and everything. And tell you what, man, that facility is state of the fucking art.

It is. Good.

Thing is nice. It's brand new, so you would expect it to be absolutely amazing. It's very spacious, got a good weight room and a good indoor. But, yeah, we've gotten two good days of work in down here so far. And just grinding. Just grinding. With all the chaos that's going around Vegas in between practices.

Yeah, it's a unique week where there's a lot of media and a lot of attention and a lot of things you have to do outside of football.

Have to do. Yeah.

And it's fun to actually just be in your routine to try and avoid all the distractions and things that take away from the game. Yeah. What are you guys doing? I guess to avoid the distractions or to minimize the distractions.

I think it's a part of the culture and the leadership that we already got to kind of make sure we focus on this thing. We got one week, man. If we do what we need to do and we play our game and we find a way to win this game, we could party and have fun in Vegas for the rest of our lives, man.

Do all the interviews you want afterwards.

Exactly. So you got to focus on this game for, what is it, five more days now? And that's the biggest focus, is that let all the excitement. There'll be plenty of Super Bowls for you to attend for the festivities when you're done playing the game or still playing or still. And, you know, I think everybody's pretty motivated and still locked in on the task at hand. And it's wild being out here in Vegas. I'll tell you what.

What is the news that's happened out of San Francisco? Is your guys field good?

Yeah, it's awesome.

But they're having issues with their field, so they're trying to practice at your guys field.

I have no idea.

All right, never mind. Super Bowl 54 rematch.

I did hear that they don't like their practice.

Yeah. I've heard rumors about. They're upset with the field conditions, but it's.

Trying to think where I've heard that before.

It's pretty rare. The Super bowl usually is a big thing with the grass, I think.

Yeah, that's always kind of been. I mean, I just hear coach Melvin every single game, make sure you got your footing, right. Yeah. That's why you go out there before practice, practice on your side of the.

Field, and they make specific cleats for it. Yeah. Super Bowl 54 rematch. You guys last played the 49 ers four years ago in Super Bowl 54 down in Miami, which means that these two teams are probably quite a bit different. But are they? Yeah, completely different sheets. Won 31.

Well, at least we are.

There's familiar faces on both sides.

Both sides? Yeah.

Their defense has a lot of guys.

And the coaches.

Well, I guess. Do they have a lot of guys? Armstead was there.

Armstead.

Linebackers.

Nick Bosa.

Bosa was obviously Nicholas.

Yeah. Both linebackers.

But their dbs. Sherman was still with San Fran 100%.

Yeah. So their dbs are different. One of their dbs was actually with us. Charvarius Ward. Shout out to Mooney.

And then offensively, they got a lot of new pieces, right?

Yeah. A lot of New York.

How many guys were on that last?

Everybody.

Chris Jones.

Yeah.

That's the only three, right?

I mean, there's. Trust me. There's a bunch. Yeah, there's a bunch. Our linebackers, Chris Jones, your lot.

Bolton has been on the chiefs that long. I didn't know that. I thought he was younger than Willie Gay. He's younger than that, right?

No.

All right.

I could be wrong about all this. The fact that we're going down this.

I'm just so. Yeah, the teams are different. It's a rematch in some ways, but in a lot of ways, these are two completely different teams.

Yeah.

But nonetheless, you guys won the last matchup 31 to 20, and this was your first Super bowl appearance ever, as well as your first super bowl victory. Is there more pressure on you guys trying to win back to back Super Bowls or more pressure on the 49 ers to avenge a Super bowl loss from four years ago?

I feel like, until you win that, I don't know, you just feel like the pressure and the want and the desire and don't get me wrong, man, I want this one more than I wanted the first one. I feel like.

Yeah.

So I feel like it's just however you build it up in your mind, but I don't know. For me, it's not as much pressure as it's just exciting for the challenge at hand. I think I've been in a few of these big games and it's just, they're like no other game out there, man. And there's no other feeling than being on the field, playing, making plays in the Super bowl. There's just no better feeling, man, than to go out there and find a way to win with your. It's just I'm more excited about the challenge than I am feeling the pressure of trying to go back to back, even though I want to be a part of the tier of NFL players and NFL teams that have done that.

Yeah. Speaking of that, the Chiefs have an opportunity to break the longest stretch of seasons without a repeat champion in the NFL. This is the longest stretch in NFL history that a team has not repeated as Super bowl winners. There have been eight repeat winners over the first 39 Super Bowls, but none over the last 18. The last team to do it obviously being the 2005 Patriots. Damn. Needless to say, it is hard to repeat a Super bowl champions, and it takes a special team to do that. You guys are in a position to do that. Do you think it helps that you guys are playing on a familiar field? You play in allegiance Stadium a lot. There's some familiarity. Mean maybe, who knows?

Yeah, I don't.

It's going to be minimal.

I'll tell you what, the Niners nation or Niners gang made me feel really at home out there. The Vegas Stadium last night, big fans booing me. I felt right at home, baby. I loved it.

You and me both.

God, it fires me up, man.

It's the best.

That fires me up. Getting booed by the Bay Area. I love it. Boys, let's go.

Let's talk a little. 49 ers defense. The 49 ers have had one of the best defense in the league over the last. I don't know. I mean, since Nick Bose has been there pretty much for him.

Patrick Willis was there.

Yeah. You got that whole Vic Fangio, Justin Smith, Patrick Willis. Bowman.

Patrick Willis. What did I just say? Did I say Patrick Willis? Patrick Willis was there.

I don't know.

Nice. All right.

Bowman.

I don't know why I thought I said somebody else.

Go ahead.

Bowman was nice, too, by Alden Smith.

I mean, their front seven was ridiculous. It is, again, ridiculous with Nick Bosa, Chase Young, Javon Hargrave. Shout out to my man, grave digger and Eric Armstead, who I think is a very underrated player. Not that he's not known. I just think he's very good. What stands out about this unit most to you?

They are big, strong, and very fast.

It's a good combination.

Yeah. And they play very well together, man. You watch them on film, they kind of get better as the game goes on as a unit. And you could see in all their playoff games, they're finishing the game and the other team isn't. They're doing a better job in certain specific situations in the second half. That's catapulting their team to win ball games right now. And this defense, man, they fly around and they're smart. Smart. They have an idea. And on top of that, man, their backers can move. And when your backers are that athletic, you can do a lot of different stuff, man.

No doubt, no doubt. Their linebackers fly around in cover the middle of the field, run sideline to sideline, and then their front is so dominant at getting penetration up the field. Yeah.

They're really our biggest challenge, man. It's going to be our biggest challenge.

Well, another challenge for you guys is the tight end on the other side of the ball, Jorge, which is Mr. George Kittle. That's right. We got an all time tight end matchup in the Super bowl, the big Yeti versus George kittle. You've talked about Kittle being the best in the league this year. Are you looking forward to facing him again in the Super bowl?

Hell, yeah. Of yeah. Are you kidding me? Last year, I got to go up against my brother and you, and this year, I get to go up against my tight end. You, brother g. Kittle, man.

There you go.

That's my guy, man.

Have you guys talked at all? Did you guys see each other at the.

Yeah. In between or whatever? Yeah, the opening ceremony. We got to chat just a little bit while everybody else is getting interviewed. But there's so much chaos going on, right? There's a lot going on. Told him, tell the family I said, what's up? And good luck to everybody. Hope they enjoy the festivities in the game. And let's go make this one another legendary game. Man, let's go. Take this thing. Give the people what they want, baby.

Take it to new heights.

All right.

Playing in your fourth Super bowl. We've said this stat a lot, but it's impressive enough to keep repeating. You're playing in your fourth Super bowl in five years. Pretty crazy that you guys have been this dominant. As someone who has been on this stage so many times, how do you help young guys on the team who are first timers prepare for this?

Just try not to let the madness of the media and the build up make this game so big that it affects your play. Right? I think it did a little bit my first time in the. What the fuck? There's something in that. Sorry.

Good. Continue.

That's gnarly. I'm not going to lie. It's pretty badass, dude. So what was I talking about?

How do you help young guys that are playing in their first year?

Oh, how do I help them? Just be a veteran like I've been all year, you know, making things kind of just click for them and help them any way I can. And most of the time, it's just reassurance that. That they know what they're doing and that they feel comfortable where they're at and they feel confident in what they're doing and that don't let the madness of this whole media chaos that is the Super bowl build this up to get you distracted on what the task is and what your assignments are. Just stay focused on what your job is, how you can help out the guy next to you and just playing your tail off, man. It's the best message you can give a guy because I promise you, everybody's going to be excited for this one.

Because you guys have now been to so many Super Bowls, some fans are stating or starting to view you guys as villains. Do you feel just. Do you feel that you guys are kind of getting the Patriots syndrome? There's no question that because you guys have been so successful that people be hating right now. Don't be hating. You don't feel like that's the case at all.

I feel like I hear the cheers more than I hear the fus.

That's a good way to look at life. I think that's the right way to view things.

You could tell that the Niners in the opening ceremony had the room.

Yeah.

A fan base is one thing.

Of course they're going to view you guys as villains. They're playing you guys. Yeah, I'm talking about NFL wise.

I don't know. I guess this year's been a little bit different. Kind of been a mixture of both.

I mean, you guys have been so good for so long. You probably just standard.

It is what it is.

You guys are a pretty likable team, though.

We try and do it in a fun way, man.

Andy is a hard guy to hate.

There you go.

Pat Mahomes. I feel like he's a hard guy to hate.

Travis, Kelsey, you can hate that guy. That guy can suck sometimes.

The hard guy to hate, I don't know. I just feel like. I don't know.

It was right there. You should have floored it. I'll say this, man. It's football, man. It comes with the territory, baby.

Right.

The more you win, the more teams don't want to see the consistent.

I feel like the more you win close games, people remember certain plays or things that didn't go their way and they resent you guys for it. That's what I think happens, but ain't your fault.

And also, the more you win, the more teams you beat, the more fan bases dislike you.

Yeah, I think that's pretty fair. Yeah. All right, cool. So we got to obama that. Do you like being the villain? This is something Pat was asked earlier this week.

Yeah, I thought he had a great response to it, man, as he always does.

I can definitely sense it. I never felt like that because I've never been like that my entire life. I know the Patriots had that for a while. I'm hoping we do it in a different way with a little bit of more fun and personality with it. But as long as you keep winning, teams start to not like you and I want to keep winning. So if that means some other teams and other fan bases aren't going to like me, I'll try to still have a smile on my face and not be a bad example, but I can be that villain for them if they need me to. Should.

That's kind of just got me fired up right here.

It did. I kind of got goosebumps just reading.

It all right now. Patty Mahomes.

Yeah, I think that's a pretty good way to answer that question. You got any final thoughts, Trev? Is this in any way? Are there more distractions? Let's talk about this. You're in Sin City. This ain't Wayne in Kansas anymore.

Well played. Didn't.

We are in Sin City. There are not only media distractions. Distractions galore.

Yeah.

You guys actually aren't allowed in. No players in the game are allowed in casinos before the game.

Yeah, you definitely can't gamble. You might be able to walk through.

I thought you guys weren't even allowed to step foot in a casino.

I mean, if there's a restaurant in a casino, we can go in that.

Listen, I don't know if that's the case.

I'm not going down the strip anytime.

All right? Either way.

Till the game.

Lots of distractions. There's a big television sphere that's 400ft tall right behind us, I think. I don't know how tall it is, but it's pretty big. Yeah. Is this different in any way this year?

I feel like it's exciting, man. The first ever.

I agree.

Super bowl in Las Vegas, Nevada. The biggest entertainment show, like, mecca in the world.

It's built for this.

It's literally built for the biggest mean. I'm just excited to have.

I'm sorry, not three. I've been. You guys are in Tampa. I've been. When you guys are in Miami. I've played in Minnesota and then obviously played last year in Arizona. This is pretty fucking cool.

This is insane. This is insane.

I'm going to go see you, too, tomorrow. I mean, I know you got a game for. This is going to be a blast for all the people enjoying this motherfucker. Honestly, it just makes me want to.

Win it that much more, man. It makes me want to be on the right side of the history books and be able to say, I won the first Vegas Super bowl ever because I think the NFL is going to enjoy having this place as the home.

I think this is the first of many.

Yeah.

This place is built to host events like this.

That's what I'm saying. So for it to be the first, just what we've been through as a team, to get to this point, to get back to the mountaintop that we desire, that expectation was set the minute that we won it last year. It's been a fun ride up to this point, an exciting opportunity to win this Super bowl, and, man, that just makes you want it more than ever, man.

Love it. Love it. All righty. No dumb questions, Super bowl preview. That's right. Time to move on to our special Super bowl edition of no dumb questions. It's officially our no dumb Super bowl preview. This no dumb Super bowl preview is brought to you by Buffalo Wild Wings. We're about to actually time this. Let's go, sports bar. We got time and we got time.

Come on, now, baby.

Just can't harm. All righty. From J. We got to try that, too, while we're here. Not right now. We'll save it in the post. All right. Go. JD Francis on Twitter. No, no questions. Will you guys lead the charge to finally move the Super bowl to Saturday. Let us sleep in and lead the charge. Let us sleep in and sleep it off instead of trying to go to work on Monday.

No.

Yeah, I'm out on this. No, completely.

It's one day out of the year. All right? One day.

Football is meant to be played. There are occasions where it's cool to see a Monday game. It's cool to see a Friday, Saturday, Thursday, Thursday. But I think the Super bowl is meant to be played on Sunday. If anything, we need to make Monday a holiday. Yeah, just make Monday a holiday. The country should change what they're doing for the Super bowl. Not the Super bowl for the country.

Come on now, people.

Come on now.

It's football, baby.

In Brazil. Actually, I was in Brazil for the World cup. Did you know whenever the brazilian national soccer team plays, the entire country shuts down? It's a national holiday whenever their soccer team plays.

It might only be in America, but.

So I'm saying just make it a national holiday. It's America's sport. It's surpassed our national pastime of baseball, in my opinion.

I'm right there with you.

Right? I think Monday needs Super Bowl. Monday should just be off.

Yeah, I'm with it.

Unless you work at any of the stores that I need to go to, then you should still work.

Unless you're chick fil a, because you're off on Sunday.

Unless you're necessary. If you were open during COVID you still got to go to work. That's how it works. Sorry, I don't make the rules. Rules are rules.

America rules.

You're necessary. You got to get out there.

From at Austin, Texas, chief. All right. Now, with the Super bowl being in Vegas, what are the top five movies all time that are set in Las Vegas? That's a damn good question right there.

I think we both are going to say the first one. I'll let you say it.

I'm not even reading it.

I know where you're going.

Three, two, one.

Vegas vacation. Oh, my God.

I do love Vegas vacation.

You said you love Vegas vacation. I thought that that's where you were going. Hangover is great. They're both good movies.

They're both good. I was so disappointed when I went to Vegas for the first time and there was no free cars to win.

Free cars.

I was just like, where the fuck.

Do I get a free. Where are all these free cars? God damn it. Randy is the uncle. What's the son's name? I can't remember those movies.

Rusty.

I knew it was an R. Dennis Quaid is the best part of those movies. Jeffrey's great, too, but the brother, God damn, Randy's good. Yeah. Vegas, vacation, hangover.

Hangover.

Those are both in my top five. Are you a big swingers guy?

Vegas, baby.

Vegas. Dude, I'm just a big. Vince Vaughn.

You're so money, you don't even know it.

Dude, Vince Vaughn is just an electric freaking character.

He's a legend. He's a legend.

Him and John Favreau. Is that how you say it? Yes, I think so.

Now it is.

Yeah. Dude.

I have no idea.

I love that.

But they are the absolute legends. They were in four christmases together, too.

Four christmases. The best rom.com of all time. The breakup, which I don't think John Favreau is in, but Vince Vaughn's electric in that one. Anyways, swingers. Outstanding movie.

What about would you consider Rush hour? Was that in Vegas?

Is that in Vegas?

When they had the casino. They have a casino in LA at the time.

They probably didn't. I would bet it would have been illegal to have a casino at the time.

All right, La casino. All right.

Rush hour is not in it, but nice try. Nice try. To see what you did there. You got to put casino in there.

Yeah. All right.

Scorsese.

Yeah, it's a classic. Yeah, it's a classic. You can throw it on right now, Nero.

You can put any casino goodfellows, Bronx tale. I mean, you can't go wrong with anything in that category.

Are you sure rush hour wasn't in Vegas?

No, I'm not. I literally just was told this by interim Brandon. Sure. I'm not sure. Buttercream.

Buttercream.

Maybe it's rush hour two. Which one is the one? Rush hour two is the one where they're in the casino, right? No, where it jumps down the banner. That's rush hour two. That's not rush hour one. All right, check rush hour two. Is that in Vegas?

It's in a casino. And I know there's no casinos in California. Not because I'm a degenerate and I looked.

But what about. No, that's Los Angeles. I was thinking of escape from Los Angeles. Here's the plotline for rush hour two. It's vacation time for Detective James Carter. He finds himself alongside Detective Lee in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong.

Well, they end up in Vegas, though.

Yeah, you're Hong Kong. The Vegas of.

You'Re. I'll allow that. Yeah, that was great.

What else is a good Vegas movie, man? Fuck.

I mean, technically, it was a british territory, I think, at the time, but that's what do we. All right, one more movie.

Vegas is a british territory. I ain't buying it.

What is a.

We're missing one. We're missing. It's right there.

Okay, so we got Vegas, vacation, hangover, swingers, casino, and. I thought you already said oceans living.

Yeah, but there's one other one that we're missing. Which one is it?

Big trouble in little Chinatown. Is that the name of that movie?

Dodgeball?

Does that take place in Vegas? You know what?

I knew there was one dude that's definitely up there.

I think we got to get better one than that for dodgeball.

Fucking extend your arm.

It's my left hand.

I don't watch the elbow, dude. Well, that's our top five. And we just made dodgeball a Vegas movie.

It's official. It's Vegas.

Yeah, that's it.

Yeah. We did it.

You want to talk about anything else?

Not really. I just want to drink out of my cool cup.

He's so proud of this.

It's been a long time.

It has. There has been a lot of back and forth, and I felt bad for Kayla the entire time.

You did?

I didn't want anything to do with this.

You didn't answer any of the evident. It was evident.

Ridiculous.

You thought it was.

They already work way too hard for this to be as good as it is. And then you just poured on the most impossible.

Fucking looks great. All right, that about wraps up this episode of new Heights.
