Kylie Kelsey
You look amazing, though.
Kelsey Kelsey
Thank you so much.
Kylie Kelsey
You have. This is like. I'm not trying to gas you up, but you have the most gorgeous, gorgeous skin.
Kelsey Kelsey
That is very kind.
Kylie Kelsey
No, because when I met. Okay, so we've met before. Yes, we met on the sidelines at the Eagles game. Was that two weeks ago?
Kelsey Kelsey
Two weeks ago. That was such a. I guess it was three weeks ago now.
Kylie Kelsey
Three weeks. Pro Bowl. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Three weeks ago. That was such an insane game. The snow, all of it. But I remember we met for the first time and that was my first impression of you. I was like, why is her skin so perfect?
Kelsey Kelsey
So you are Shout out. Far too kind.
Kylie Kelsey
Shout out.
Kelsey Kelsey
Far too kind.
Kylie Kelsey
I'm so happy we're doing this. I think people are going to freak the out that we're getting to sit down together.
Kelsey Kelsey
I hope so.
Kylie Kelsey
So I think so. They're like, this is actually.
Kelsey Kelsey
Otherwise, I'm so sorry to call her daddy.
Kylie Kelsey
Audience the Daddy Gang's like, what the.
Kelsey Kelsey
No.
Kylie Kelsey
People are going to be excited. First of all, just to give context, we are sitting in these, like, horrid, amazing recliner chairs.
Kelsey Kelsey
Thank God my husband didn't come.
Kylie Kelsey
Why?
Kelsey Kelsey
He would have been like, how fast can you ship these back to our house?
Kylie Kelsey
No, this is.
Kelsey Kelsey
This is my husband's style chair.
Kylie Kelsey
I. They're actually so fucking ugly, but they.
Kelsey Kelsey
But they swallow you up.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. Oh, they're cozy. And I do. That's all he cares about by the end. We could recline.
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh, perfect. Yeah. Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
We can, like, get cozy.
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh, great.
Kylie Kelsey
We're going to start professional, and we're going to fuck.
Kelsey Kelsey
Ankle swelling. I got this. Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
We're going to.
Kelsey Kelsey
We're going to get our feet elevated.
Kylie Kelsey
But I got this set up for us, and I was like, it's ugly, but it is indicative of where we are. We're in New Orleans. Super Bowls tomorrow. I feel like you've probably been to a lot of Super Bowls, right?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
What is the most, like. Like, favorite memory you have of a Super Bowl? Anything.
Kelsey Kelsey
I mean, I would love to say Minnesota, but I don't have that many memories because I blacked out.
Kylie Kelsey
Classic. Can you give some context to people that aren't familiar with what you're talking about?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah. So the Eagles won the super bowl. Super Bowl 52 in Minnesota. And it was incredible. It was. I mean, my husband was the center at the time. It was unreal to watch. And also, I'm from Philadelphia, so I knew what it meant to the city. But the stress, like, even thinking about it, it was making me sweat. Again, the stress of watching him play, knowing what it meant to the city, and also that we hadn't had one.
Kylie Kelsey
I grew up in Pennsylvania, and so, like, being.
Kelsey Kelsey
You get it.
Kylie Kelsey
I get it. And we've been through a lot, and Philly fans, we are. It's aggressive.
Kelsey Kelsey
Like, that's a very nice way to say it. Really?
Kylie Kelsey
How would. Yeah. Yeah. How would you describe Philly fans?
Kelsey Kelsey
I mean, we're appalling. And I say we because, like, I fully embrace the fact that it's all of us.
Kylie Kelsey
You partake.
Kelsey Kelsey
I mean, there are some times where I think fans, like, specifically Philly fans, Get a bad rap because of viral moments, I do not claim them. Although there was a little kid who, like, tapped someone on the shoulder or something at a game and then just, like, flipped them the bird. And I was like, I do claim that.
Kylie Kelsey
You're like, actually, I love that. I condone that.
Kelsey Kelsey
I actually love that child.
Kylie Kelsey
Obviously, your husband's retired now, but when he was playing, what was the energy like in your household on game day?
Kelsey Kelsey
Horrific.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay, walk me through it.
Kelsey Kelsey
I mean, I. I would, like, start, like, manifesting superstitions as if that was gonna help. Like, always put my left shoe on before my right, make sure that, like, certain things, if I needed to switch spots while the game was happening, that I did that. There was one game where I was folding laundry for our girls. It was a late night game, and I bent down next to the laundry basket, and suddenly there was, like, a really good run. And I was like, well, now I'm crouching next to a laundry basket. And for the rest of the game, which was like 30 to 40 minutes, I crouched next to the laundry basket.
Kylie Kelsey
Your daughter.
Kelsey Kelsey
There's fond evidence somewhere. I sent it to my other friend, who is another wife of a player and was like, am I squatting next to a laundry basket? Yes. Am I going to stop? No.
Kylie Kelsey
No. Are we gonna win? Yes.
Kelsey Kelsey
Did they win? Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
Period.
Kelsey Kelsey
Saying it's because I was crouching next to the laundry basket. I'm not willing to risk it.
Kylie Kelsey
Absolutely not.
Kelsey Kelsey
You see what I'm saying?
Kylie Kelsey
I. Logically, I love the energy. You're like, if this is working, we're gonna fucking keep with it. Wait, are you now still doing that, though, for the Eagles? Like, even now that he's not playing, are you still giving to some degree?
Kelsey Kelsey
Okay, You've not. Yes. Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
And honestly, I think it's mostly just because during games, like, my kid, like, I'm not going to the stadium anymore for home games. And so then, like, I basically tell, like, I have to, like, help my kids with things, and they pull me out.
Kylie Kelsey
Is it weird that you're not going? Like, is it sad?
Kelsey Kelsey
No, no.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
No, no. Because I get to say all of the expletives that I would like to say in the comfort of my living room.
Kylie Kelsey
And no one gets to film you doing it.
Kelsey Kelsey
That's right.
Kylie Kelsey
Who do you think would get more nervous before game, you or him?
Kelsey Kelsey
Me. You.
Kylie Kelsey
You were freaking out.
Kelsey Kelsey
I don't think that he really got nervous. Really? No.
Kylie Kelsey
I mean, I guess it makes sense, right?
Kelsey Kelsey
He did it for 13 years.
Kylie Kelsey
That's true. How do you feel about his flip flops?
Kelsey Kelsey
I'm so used to them, it doesn't even faze me. I do think it's funny that there's a population of women that are like, that's the most appalling thing I've ever seen. And I'm out here, like, really? Really? That's what. That's what a turn off is.
Kylie Kelsey
I actually like that he kind of rolls in himself.
Kelsey Kelsey
They're so disturbed at the fact that they can see his toes. And I'm like, I've seen worse toes. I'm okay with it. I live with those toes.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, I've seen them.
Kelsey Kelsey
I sleep next to those toes. Why would I be disturbed?
Kylie Kelsey
They rub up against me. That's a good answer. Okay. Your podcast.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
First of all, not gonna lie, Congratulations. It is.
Kelsey Kelsey
Thank you.
Kylie Kelsey
So refreshing and incredible to see a woman up on the charts doing her thing. How have you been feeling about it all?
Kelsey Kelsey
It's. It's interesting to talk to myself.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
I absolutely love the audience that I'm hitting now. I'm so happy that it's settled into the demographic that it was intended for. Like, it was intended for women. So sorry. Men. I have had quite a few men tell me that they listen, which I think is lovely, but it's not for me. It's meant for who it's meant for, and I wanted it to settle into that. Like, you want to hit the listeners who you're intending.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay, I'm going to ask you some questions and you're going to have to tell the truth because obviously you're not going to lie.
Kelsey Kelsey
Okay, let me dab my upper lips.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah, dab the upper lip. You don't look like you're sweating.
Kelsey Kelsey
That's really great because I'm pretty sure I have, like, ass. Like, it's pulling at my ass.
Kylie Kelsey
That's the worst. When you're wearing jeans and somehow you see the sweat through the jeans.
Kelsey Kelsey
That's what's about to happen.
Kylie Kelsey
You have the asshole sweat. I'm never going to look.
Kelsey Kelsey
Don't worry, I'll moon your camera before you leave.
Kylie Kelsey
And you wore a cable knit sweater.
Kelsey Kelsey
To be fair, I was so comfy when I started walking. And the sun here is just.
Kylie Kelsey
Well, it's humid out there.
Kelsey Kelsey
I'm not even mad about it.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
Because I'm pretty sure there's, like, a snow day back in Philadelphia.
Kylie Kelsey
I agree. Okay. What is the fastest way to piss you off?
Kelsey Kelsey
Foreign.

I have talked about this before of how they have transformed my merchandise business. I think when you are launching a brand, there are so many things that can go right and more frequently things that can go wrong. And it is so anxiety inducing when you are doing it all on your own. And Shopify removes the need for a full staff to manage your store. Thank you, Shopify. Shopify is a commerce platform that allows you to start, grow and manage a business. Whether it's your side hustle, Daddy Gang or a storefront. With Shopify, you can sell online and in person, locally and globally, direct or wholesale, desktop to mobile. The point is, Shopify makes it easy for you to start a business. I will be honest, when I took on my merchandise, I was like, oh my God, wait, wait, wait, wait, what do I do? What is happening? And Shopify held my hand. Essentially through the process, they basically operate your back office, replacing the need for full staff to oversee your operations so that you can stay focused on the things that matter.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Alex Cooper
It is a new year, Daddy Gang, if you are a business owner, take a deep breath and just recognize that you need to lean into steps that will help motivate you as an entrepreneur. And my biggest advice is leaning into things that help make your life easier so you can do more. Daddy Gang, if you had to own your own business on your vision board this year, then it's time to get started. Head to shopify.com.
Kylie Kelsey
Daddy, what is the fastest way to piss you off?
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh, lie. When people lie, I'm. I'm like, for what purpose? I. I'm not an overly sensitive person. I. It takes, like, like a lot for me to be bothered by something. I grew up in a house where, like, picking on each other was fun.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
So, like, I can take it when people lie. I'm like, for what? What did that do for you?
Kylie Kelsey
What is the most humbling thing that your daughters have said to you recently?
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh, my God, your belly's big. No. Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
What do you say when they say that?
Kelsey Kelsey
I'm like, because mom is growing a human being. That's why mom's belly is big. Yeah. They'll humble you all the time. Like my. Our youngest. It's not. Not too long ago, maybe a couple weeks ago, looked right at me and was like, boobs. And I was like, yes. This was in the morning. I had just gotten out of the shower. I'm like, getting dressed. She's sitting on the bed. And she goes, boobs. And I said, yes. And she goes, bae. And I was like, okay, guys, there is a human being.
Kylie Kelsey
One of you is in here.
Kelsey Kelsey
I'm trying to give you a sibling. Yeah. Oh, my God.
Kylie Kelsey
And it's gonna be four.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes, four. But like, four girls is better than four boys. When I meet boy moms, I'm like, God bless you. God bless you. I don't even. My mother in law, My mother in law has told me horror stories of. There is a story about my husband, when he was little, going out in the front yard. And Donna, my mother in law heard someone go, he has a knife. He was in the front yard with the kitchen knives, throwing them up in the air to see if they would stick in the front lawn.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay, but do you think that younger years, it's harder with fur boys? But then when you're. When the girls get to, like, high school.
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh, I already told my husband he can move out as long as he visits me. That's what I told him. You have to visit me, but you can move out Like, I'm prepared to take the hit.
Kylie Kelsey
Do you realize? Because you know how you were, like, in high school.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
And I know how I was like, in high school.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
And no matter what barometer you were at, whether you were crazy or normal, like girls in high school, that shit is horrible.
Kelsey Kelsey
I always say the only thing worse than high school girls is middle school girls, period. Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
What is the craziest rumor you've ever heard about yourself?
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh, the boy one is the most. The most frequent. I don't know if it's crazy that we're having a boy, that we tried for a boy.
Kylie Kelsey
Interesting. Why do you think people are saying that?
Kelsey Kelsey
Because they really want us to have a boy. I will say there was this moment when we found out we were having our fourth girl where I was like, we've always said we wanted four kids. I'm like, maybe. Maybe I won't get to meet a little Jason, which was a little bit weird. But at the same time, I'm like, if we had a boy, at this point, I'm good. I've gone this long without getting peed on. When I open a diaper, I'm trying to keep that streak alive.
Kylie Kelsey
Maybe we're, like, good with one Jason. One Jason is enough.
Kelsey Kelsey
I think that's what the universe has said.
Kylie Kelsey
I agree. How do you feel about the word Wagner?
Kelsey Kelsey
I don't like it. Why? I don't like it because I think it has a serious negative connotation attached. I think that it's this suggestion that your spouse's profession swallows you up as well. And I have made a serious effort to make sure that. And both Jason and I have made a serious effort to make sure that while he was playing that it was clear that that was his job. Interesting. In the same way that someone would go to work and come home and not necessarily talk about their entire day. You're filing taxes. You're. You're doing spreadsheets. Like, you're not coming home and telling your spouse about, like, the spreadsheet you worked out.
Alex Cooper
I agree.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, I think that now, what I appreciate is even, like, I was telling you before this, like, speaking to the Wags yesterday, I appreciate how people are being more vocal about, like, what they do independently. And I think sometimes it can freak people out when it's like, wait, you're just. Even if you are, like, holding down the household, it's like, people don't understand that these women do have their own independent lives with their husband, obviously. And I think people like to just be like, no, your. Your husband is just, like, an NFL player. So you just, like, are in it.
Alex Cooper
For the money or the fame or.
Kylie Kelsey
Whatever, and it's like, no, these are, like, real humans with real lives and feelings and.
Kelsey Kelsey
And the vast majority. It's. It's so funny to me because it's like. It is that stigma of, like, you're with them because they make a lot of money or, like, you want designer bags or you want. You live in a mansion. It's like, no, I. Like, there have been a number of people who have come to our house, and they're like, oh. I'm like, again, not easily offended. I'm like, yep, that's what you get. It's like, well, now that you said.
Kylie Kelsey
Your husband would want these chairs, I'm getting a. They would fit. Well, they fit in there. I love you. I love you. Okay, what is a weird item that is always in your bag?
Kelsey Kelsey
That's a good question. For a while, because I was doing, like, event consulting, I had zip ties in my.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, that's weird. That's fucking weird.
Kelsey Kelsey
Because when one day I realized how weird it was when I went to get something, like chapstick or something, and someone was like, is that a zip tie? And I was like, oh, my God. You think this is, like, kinky, is I. I. It's so that signs don't fall down.
Kylie Kelsey
I agree. If I saw that, I'd be like.
Kelsey Kelsey
Kylie, what is wrong?
Kylie Kelsey
Kylie, what are you, Jason, up to with that headboard?
Kelsey Kelsey
Nothing. Nothing. I'm trying to keep signs on walls, guys. It's so.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah, it's not that hot.
Kelsey Kelsey
I have. Since. I have since moved on. They are no longer in my bag.
Kylie Kelsey
It's probably a good look. What is something you used to be embarrassed about, but you don't give a about anymore.
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh, my height.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, interesting.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah, tell me about that. I was 510 going into high school, taller than every guy in my grade, which can really, like, set you up for some weird feedback from the opposite sex.
Kylie Kelsey
What did they say?
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh, I was a man. Like, it was all of, like, the. They felt emasculated by the fact that I was taller than them. Of course, by the time I got to, like, senior year, I was like, you guys can go fuck yourselves.
Kylie Kelsey
Truly. And then those little, like, five, eight squirts, you're like, shut the up.
Kelsey Kelsey
Well, the best part is my dad is 6 9, so, like, when I.
Kylie Kelsey
Your dad is 6 9?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes. And my mom's only 5 2, so I've never been alarmed at either End of the height spectrum.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, that's interesting.
Kelsey Kelsey
So I never realized how tall I was until people started picking on me about how tall I was.
Kylie Kelsey
It's so infuriating when boys are picking on you in middle school or high school and you're like, it's so this.
Kelsey Kelsey
Is a you problem?
Alex Cooper
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
You're so insecure and you're looking at me and you're like, I'm fucking gorgeous. Get away from me.
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh. By senior year, I was like, you guys can suck my ass.
Kylie Kelsey
You're like, I'm gonna wear.
Kelsey Kelsey
I mean, you're down there anyway. Have at it. Oh, fuck.
Kylie Kelsey
That was a good one. No, that was good. Okay. Wait. Yeah. So you grew up in Philadelphia?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
What were you like as a kid?
Kelsey Kelsey
Well behaved. I'm a rule follower.
Kylie Kelsey
Really?
Kelsey Kelsey
Big time rule follower. Oh. If someone's like, you can't go there. I'm like, I can't go there. And then like, our team will be like, kylie, you have to. You have to say, like, you're supposed to be in there.
Kylie Kelsey
I wouldn't expect that.
Kelsey Kelsey
I'm such a rule follower. My husband is the opposite. We really compliment each other on that.
Kylie Kelsey
He just busted the door.
Kelsey Kelsey
He's like a barrier. It. I like, I'm like, there's a sign that says we can't.
Kylie Kelsey
We're not allowed to do that. It's kind of like me and my husband Matt will always be like, you just. You have to act like, you know, like if you walk straight through, no one's gonna ask you a question. Oh, my God.
Alex Cooper
I'm kind of like, I don't have a pass.
Kelsey Kelsey
I can' go there.
Kylie Kelsey
But it's like, I feel like you can just go in. But I never could. Okay, that's. Why do you think we're like that?
Kelsey Kelsey
I don't know. I'm. I don't know if it's. I don't know.
Kylie Kelsey
I get anxiety.
Kelsey Kelsey
Like, kids in high school used to be like, oh, I'm gonna skip this class. And I would be like, my mom will find out. My 5 foot 2 mother will find out.
Kylie Kelsey
Wait, were your parents strict growing up?
Kelsey Kelsey
Not really. No. I mean, like, I think at the time I would have said yes, but not really. I was like playing sports. So, like, I wasn't going to house parties regularly because I was. I was had a field hockey tournament to get up for for the next day.
Kylie Kelsey
And what was your social life like in high school?
Kelsey Kelsey
Trash.
Kylie Kelsey
Why?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah, I mean, I really like my field hockey team, my club field hockey team. Were where I, like, spent the most time on the weekends. Yeah. I was not, like, a partier. I still am not a partier. I really don't drink.
Kylie Kelsey
I'm a little hungover.
Kelsey Kelsey
Are you?
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
See, I love the idea of getting up the next morning and being like, I can eat breakfast happily and, like, go about my day.
Kylie Kelsey
I love that feeling, too. And I wish fellow.
Kelsey Kelsey
My husband, I feel like he had that experience this morning was like, this is delightful. But for the last, like, four days, we've been like, are you alive?
Kylie Kelsey
Does he get hungover?
Kelsey Kelsey
I think he would try. He would like to say no, but he does. He's lying.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay. Did you ever date in high school?
Kelsey Kelsey
No.
Kylie Kelsey
No?
Kelsey Kelsey
No.
Kylie Kelsey
You?
Alex Cooper
No.
Kylie Kelsey
When did you have your first kiss?
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh. Oh, God. Ooh.
Kylie Kelsey
Tell me.
Kelsey Kelsey
Five days before my junior year of high school.
Kylie Kelsey
So specific.
Kelsey Kelsey
Because I was so alarmed by the fact that I was going to be a junior in high school and had never even, like, touched lips with another human being.
Kylie Kelsey
Wait, how did it happen?
Kelsey Kelsey
I just kissed a guy, walked up to him. He literally was like, oh, I'll come over and hang out. And I was like, you can't come over and hang out. Like, my dad's here.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay, so you're your first kiss in high school? Junior year, yeah. Who was your first boyfriend?
Kelsey Kelsey
When I was. When I graduated.
Kylie Kelsey
What did your parents think about him?
Kelsey Kelsey
He was fine.
Kylie Kelsey
He was okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
I mean, I think we dated for, like, three months.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay, but you weren't dating, like, bad boys, Good guys? No, good guys.
Kelsey Kelsey
I am not into, like, the douche. That bothers me.
Kylie Kelsey
That's good.
Kelsey Kelsey
Like, anything. Anyone that's, like, trying to be cool. I'm like, no, you're disgusting. Get over here. I mean, my husband was in competition jazz band in high school. Like, there is a. Even though he's a jock, there's a degree of nerd.
Kylie Kelsey
Wait, he was.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes. He was a saxophone. A Barry saxophone ax player. And what? Like. And that speaks to me like that.
Kylie Kelsey
That, like, that's what gets me.
Kelsey Kelsey
Like, I make jokes about my husband not being, like, a Rico Suave. Like, not being very smooth, like, being terrible. Like, he'll get hit on by women. And I'm like, hello, she's hitting. And he's like, no, she wasn't. I'm like. I'm like, you're so cute.
Kylie Kelsey
Wait, that is adorable.
Kelsey Kelsey
That's what? Like that.
Kylie Kelsey
That's. Okay. Yeah. Okay. You ended up going to Cabrini University.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
What was your reputation on campus? Because that's a small campus. Right.
Kelsey Kelsey
Itty bitty.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. Tiny.
Kelsey Kelsey
The athletes all stuck together, so I feel like it was very close knit.
Kylie Kelsey
I had the same thing, like, all the best. Just like your family.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
Which is, I think, like I always said whenever people ask me for advice about going to college, I was like, even if you're not an athlete, like, if you can get into a group.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
You are going to thrive. Like join a fucking the jazz club or whatever the fuck it is. Because then you have like 20 people already that are your friends. And I had that immediately when I got in there. And then you don't feel like you're like a flounder fish. Right. Okay. Did you get into dating?
Kelsey Kelsey
I was dating someone in the beginning of college.
Kylie Kelsey
Fine.
Kelsey Kelsey
For like a couple years.
Kylie Kelsey
Did you go to parties?
Kelsey Kelsey
I would go to parties and be like the designated driver. Like, I would make sure I was like a mother hen. Like, I would make sure everyone got home.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, I love that.
Kelsey Kelsey
I still have, like college teammates. When I see them, they'll be like, mom. Like, they don't call me by my first name.
Kylie Kelsey
So you've always kind of had that, like motherly energy about you.
Kelsey Kelsey
And when I went to college, I was the 21 year old freshman transfer. Like, I went to community college first. Got it.
Kylie Kelsey
Yep.
Kelsey Kelsey
So I was automatically like, I was a freshman that could get into bars. Oh, I love that phrase. Because of course, I was a rural follower and never had a fake id.
Kylie Kelsey
You never had a fake.
Kelsey Kelsey
When I tell you like a rule follower, I mean a rule follower.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay, so what is like the most trouble you've ever gotten in your life? You're like, I've been arrested.
Kelsey Kelsey
Actually, I did jail time. No, no.
Kylie Kelsey
You don't know that. I went to prison. I'm like, what?
Kelsey Kelsey
That's so weird. You want to see my prison tattoo?
Kylie Kelsey
No, no. Do you not. Have you ever gotten in that much trouble?
Kelsey Kelsey
No, the. The worst is that I. The worst that's ever happened is like, I got pulled over for going like 40 and a 25.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, my God.
Kelsey Kelsey
And I apologize profusely. Profusely.
Kylie Kelsey
I can't even look at you right now. I feel like a horrible person. Okay, we're going to play a game. One of your favorite phrases is, I have no business doing that. So I'm going to give you a scenario and you tell me if you do it or you have no business doing that.
Kelsey Kelsey
Perfect.
Kylie Kelsey
Dye your hair platinum blonde.
Kelsey Kelsey
No business.
Kylie Kelsey
Have you ever dyed your hair?
Kelsey Kelsey
I mean, I get highlights, but nothing. Absolutely. You could. No.
Kylie Kelsey
You look you have really gorgeous hair.
Kelsey Kelsey
That's very kind.
Kylie Kelsey
Getting a matching tattoo with Jason.
Kelsey Kelsey
No, I think that's a jinx.
Kylie Kelsey
You do?
Kelsey Kelsey
I have no business doing that. I do. Do you have a. Do you have a matching table?
Kylie Kelsey
Absolutely not.
Kelsey Kelsey
Okay, good.
Kylie Kelsey
You're like, I think that is such trash behavior. And I'm literally like, I should just.
Kelsey Kelsey
Right here.
Kylie Kelsey
We got this on our website.
Kelsey Kelsey
I've seen so many ones where I'm like, that is the sweetest little, like, hint of no.
Kylie Kelsey
No. Do you have a tattoo? No, I don't have any either.
Kelsey Kelsey
I. I just. It's more of a commitment thing. Like, I don't. I still have not seen something where I'm like, I want that on my body.
Kylie Kelsey
I feel the same exact way. I'm like, do it same. But I'm like, there's nothing that I can even picture for a second that I'm like, this needs to be on me till I'm 90. I change my mind. I don't know what I want. Right.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
Me in college making a decision of a tattoo.
Kelsey Kelsey
You'd have an infinity symbol.
Kylie Kelsey
I would hate my.
Kelsey Kelsey
With a heart.
Kylie Kelsey
And I would want you to bully me and be like, why do you.
Kelsey Kelsey
That's just it. I don't.
Kylie Kelsey
The infinity symbol. Shout out to the girls that got it on a whim that are living.
Kelsey Kelsey
That are with infinity and beyond. That's it.
Kylie Kelsey
Wait, does your husband have tattoos?
Kelsey Kelsey
He does not.
Kylie Kelsey
Does Travis have tattoos?
Kelsey Kelsey
I don't think so. Jason and Travis talked very briefly about getting, like, their, like, the Kelsey Crest.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, interesting. Do you think it's gonna happen? No, I don't think they should, but who don't mind if they should.
Kelsey Kelsey
I don't think they should either.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, I'm not a tattoo person, but.
Kelsey Kelsey
I respect people that are. I think that I love, like, women with, like, little dainty tattoos. I think they're so sweet. I think that for a guy, you either need to be fully committed, like, you need to be tatted, or none at all.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. Like, lean in or just stop moving on. Film a reality show about your family.
Kelsey Kelsey
No business.
Kylie Kelsey
You would never, ever, Never.
Kelsey Kelsey
Here's the thing. You don't want to. You don't want to be an hour. The reason it hasn't happened. We are not that interested. I tell people all the time. You catch me on a random Tuesday. We're going to be in the kitchen coloring. I'm going to be yelled at about snacks and filling water bottles. Someone's going to be screaming from upstairs. I'm Done pooping. And I'm like, okay, that's actually true.
Kylie Kelsey
Is it weird for you that so many people are, like, so fascinated with your lives?
Kelsey Kelsey
I feel I seriously, I have, like, a legitimate amount of guilt associated with the fact that people are like, you're amazing. And I'm like, I'm not. You're like, girl, I'm so sorry to dis. When people meet me and they're like, I'm so excited to meet you. I'm like, I'm so sorry to let you down, Kylie. It's just like.
Kylie Kelsey
I get what you mean, though. I think that is something that's so crazy when you meet. You see people on the Internet or in tabloids or whatever the fuck, and you're like. You have this idea, and then you meet them. It's like, guys, we're all just like normal human beings. We're all shitting. We're all dealing with life like, y.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
We're all sweating. We have ass sweat.
Kelsey Kelsey
We all put our. We all put our sweaty pants on the same way.
Kylie Kelsey
Thank you. Would you ever attend the Met Gala?
Kelsey Kelsey
No. Good God, no. I wear fucking Chuck Taylor's when I'm supposed to dress up. Okay. I. What? No.
Kylie Kelsey

Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah, a thousand. I have full faith that I could throw it.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay. Would you ever go on a silent wellness retreat?
Kelsey Kelsey
Maybe. Ask me when I get back to my kids. Right now I'm like, no.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
But when I get back to my kids, there might be four days. I'd be like, alex. How about that? Silent Wellness.
Kylie Kelsey
Did you have a connect for that? Where are we? Dress in disguise to hide from paparazzi?
Kelsey Kelsey
No, No, I probably wouldn't. I'd just flip them off.
Kylie Kelsey
Love. Love. You're honest. Renew your vows.
Kelsey Kelsey
I don't really feel the need to. It was only seven years ago. I know what I said.
Kylie Kelsey
I kind of feel the same way. Maybe when we hit, like, 20. Yeah. Yeah, 20. Do you think 20 or 30. Yeah, 30 feels like a milestone.
Kelsey Kelsey
I do think it would be cool with. I mean, we just had, like, a great time at our wedding. It would be Cool to, like, get everybody back together.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, that would be fun. Wait, where do you have your wedding?
Kelsey Kelsey
At the Logan Hotel in Philadelphia.
Kylie Kelsey
Lovely.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes, we did a little. A little homestay.

Kelsey Kelsey
By Ray lamonte.
Kylie Kelsey
What was your favorite part of your wedding?
Kelsey Kelsey
I loved our ceremony. We had. It was, like, very intimate. It felt really nice. Our dog, which was like, my sole dog, was our flower girl. She nailed it. She was so good.
Kylie Kelsey
Is she still with you?
Kelsey Kelsey
She's not. She passed away in March.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, man.
Alex Cooper

Kelsey Kelsey
It's okay. She's. She's. It was the right decision.
Kylie Kelsey
Are you ever gonna get another dog?

Our girls call him Bubba.
Kylie Kelsey
You. But you're not, like, vibing with Baloo.
Kelsey Kelsey
No, I love him now, when. As soon as Winnie passed, I was like, okay, we'll be cool now. But, like, while Winnie was still alive, I was like, you know, Winnie's it.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, I get what you're saying. I feel that way about my dog Henry right now. I'm like, I love you, Bruce. But, like, Henry is, like, the og. I wonder if that, like, affects how they feel about them.
Kelsey Kelsey
My oldest daughter, when we were talking about, like, me carrying a baby right now, she was like, well, you had a baby before me. And I was like, excuse me.
Alex Cooper
No.
Kelsey Kelsey
And she goes, yeah, Winnie. Because I've called Winnie my firstborn child so many times. My oldest daughter thinks that I carried the Irish wolfhound in my womb.
Kylie Kelsey
It must be so wild to have children. When you say things like, as an adult, it must take a minute to realize how much shit sticks with them. You're like, oh, you really believed that concept? I didn't realize that was, like, penetrating you in the way that I was just, like, saying it, because it's like a normal statement. And now she's like, mommy, you had a wolf.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah. You had a wolfhound in your belly. You grew Winnie, your firstborn child.
Kylie Kelsey
Let's wait. Do you have a name? Obviously, you're not gonna tell me, but.
Kelsey Kelsey
Like, have you guys talked about if I had any? So if I had a name, I would tell you.
Kylie Kelsey
I wouldn't have to, but. Oh, okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
No, I would. I'm not.
Kylie Kelsey
You don't Know yet.
Kelsey Kelsey
So when we were having our first daughter, people told me, like, don't tell people what you're gonna name a kid because then you get reactions. And I'm like, I don't think you understand. I really don't care at that point. Like, if I've chosen, we're going with it.
Kylie Kelsey
It's.
Kelsey Kelsey
That's it. Yeah. We had that situation with Wyatt. Our oldest is Wyatt. People are disturbed by the fact that we've named her Wyatt. Why? She's very much a Wyatt. Anyone that meets her is like, oh, that's a Wyatt.
Kylie Kelsey
People did not like that. You. Why are people so annoying? Like, literally shut.
Kelsey Kelsey
You know what? Her emails are gonna be answered so fast. Kiss my ass.

Kylie Kelsey
Okay, let's talk about your marriage.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
You met Jason on Tinder.
Kelsey Kelsey
I did.
Kylie Kelsey
Before you matched with him, were you, like, looking for a relationship?
Kelsey Kelsey
No, we were just messing around. We did it like all my friends in college. We would, like, sit around and like, swipe together.
Kylie Kelsey
I. I would do that too. And half of the time, if I match with someone, I'd be like, wait, you're better for him. Like, let's go. And like, you end up going with me.
Kelsey Kelsey
We would. We would get the same people and be like, oh, did you swipe right on him? Yeah, I swiped right. I matched with him. Swipe right and see if you match. And then we would start having conversations that were like, parallel conversations half the time.
Kylie Kelsey
Also, I was doing it just for a social life. I'm like, let's see, do they have parties? Like, let's go, like, meet anyone you can in college. And you're just trying to get like, the hookup. I feel like you guys are like, literally Tinder's biggest success story. Have they ever reached out to you?
Kelsey Kelsey
Right before we got married, they did send a Care package. It was like, a lot of, like, flame merch. It was great. The perfect match or signs that said that.
Kylie Kelsey
No, that is.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
What was it about his profile that, like, stuck out to you?
Kelsey Kelsey
He looked like a bigger guy.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
He was actually. There were pictures of him next to people, and I was like, oh, he's kind of, like, dwarfing them a little bit. Love, which everyone wants to feel like small girl.
Kylie Kelsey
Everyone wants. Everyone wants that small girl energy. You're like, get in there.
Kelsey Kelsey
He also. His bio, which you can still find somewhere on the Internet.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, that's so good that I love the Internet.
Kelsey Kelsey
It's somewhere was some sarcastic ass. Like, I'm here to make an emotional connection. I want to have long talks about, like, having babies and something else. I'm like, you're such a dumbass. I can't wait to roast the shit out of you.
Kylie Kelsey
Do you guys have that type of relationship?
Kelsey Kelsey
We will go back and forth. Very much so. It's. I. I love it because it's like, the house I grew up in. I. I get that there's comfort, obviously.
Kylie Kelsey
I know you've said this before, but if my daddy gang doesn't know. Can you talk about the first. Who sent the first message and what. These messages were so bad. No, it's so good.
Kelsey Kelsey
I sent the first message.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
I said, I need life alert. I've fallen for you and I can't get up.
Kylie Kelsey
Kylie.
Kelsey Kelsey
That one didn't land very well. He was like, that's not that great. And I was like, I love a challenge. So then I went back with, this is so bad. This is so bad. If I told you I work for ups, would you let me handle your package? And he said, yes.
Kylie Kelsey
He said, absolutely. That's a better one. Where do you want to go on a date?
Kelsey Kelsey
I feel much better about this now. Yeah. We.
Kylie Kelsey
And then were you guys, like, talking and then you went on a date?
Kelsey Kelsey
So then we just had, like. We were messaging for probably a week, and it was great banter.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
And a little bit into the banter, I was, like, obviously talking to the friends who we would, like, swipe with.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
And they were like. I was like, I don't know why, but this guy looks kind of familiar.
Alex Cooper
Oh.
Kelsey Kelsey
So then we start Googling with all the information we had. Jason, 27, Philadelphia.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, my God.
Kelsey Kelsey
Then I was like, he had to have been an athlete because you could just tell by his build. So then I'm looking up, like, Philadelphia college roster. Cause, like, you can find anyone on a college roster.
Kylie Kelsey
Wait, he didn't have a picture of him, like, in his jersey?
Kelsey Kelsey
No.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, my God. I feel like all the douches on Raya that have their, like, fucking profile picture with them in, like, their Ravens jersey, it's like he. He didn't lead with that.
Kelsey Kelsey
Years later, I said something in front of him about, well, he had nothing on his profile. Like, no pictures. And he was like, yes, I did. I was like, no, you didn't. Come to find out. One of the photos that he had used was actually a television shot. But because of the way Tinder formatted the picture, it chopped everything. So then the ticker at the bottom, the graphic at the top that showed that it was a football game was completely cut out. And so all it was was, like, a tight shot of him with his beard, and he was well groomed. And I was like, I didn't. Now remembering the picture now, you would know, but there was no indication.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay, but that still is like. Like a very big green flag. Because I do think it's like, if you are a professional athlete and you're feeling like you have to lead with your uniform, say less.
Kelsey Kelsey
We know what you're out here for. I mean, I don't. Here's the thing.
Kylie Kelsey
It's true. Do it. Oh, yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
Do you think?
Kylie Kelsey
Do your thing.
Kelsey Kelsey
Do your thing.
Kylie Kelsey
But Jason wasn't doing that.
Kelsey Kelsey
No.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay. What was your first impression when you met him in person for the first time?
Kelsey Kelsey
He was hammered. Like, drunk.
Kylie Kelsey
Drunk already before. Like, were you guys going on a date or you were just going to hang out?
Kelsey Kelsey
I was just going to meet up with him. So. So after we figured out who he was by googling, we thought it was a catfish. My friends and I were like, there's no. Why would he be on Tinder? That's so.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, that makes sense.
Kelsey Kelsey
So after a couple days, he said, come and meet us out at this bar. And my friend, you know, like, you have that friend that's just like, ride or die.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. Like, let's go.
Kelsey Kelsey
We gotta see how this pans out. She made a great point. It's either going to be a catfish, which is hilarious, or it's gonna be him, also hilarious.
Kylie Kelsey
Both options.
Kelsey Kelsey
We're going to find out.
Kylie Kelsey
Yep.
Kelsey Kelsey
So we went and met him at a bar in Philly. We walk in and he's sitting at the bar, and I'm like, oh, so it's not a catfish. He has since claimed that, like, it was like, a light came. Like a light came down an angel. I'm like, no, you Were fucking shit faced.
Kylie Kelsey
You could barely see out of your left eye.
Kelsey Kelsey
Your eyes were going the opposite direction.
Kylie Kelsey
Wait, why? Did he ever explain, like, why he was on Tinder?
Kelsey Kelsey
No, I think he was just messing around.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, he was just, like, looking. But I get what you're saying, like, people would assume he's a catfish because it's like, why is Jason Kelsey on Tinder?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
But maybe that was like the allure.
Kelsey Kelsey
We met before he did like the Mummer suit, the. Before all that. So he was like a little bit quieter then. But even Philadelphia is such a crazy fan base that they know the offensive lineman, so yeah, it's kind of fun.
Kylie Kelsey
Did anyone notice him when you guys were there?
Kelsey Kelsey
Well, it was after the Eagles Christmas party, so he was there with like a bunch of his teammates.
Alex Cooper
Oh, so that's why he was fucking hammered.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes. Oh, annihilated. And there are like stories after the fact of like, what he was doing at the Christmas party. And I'm like, I don't even know how you made it to the bar.
Kylie Kelsey
I don't know how you remembered me.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes. He remembered me walking in and then at some point tasting the Shirley Temple that I had ordered because it was the only non alcoholic drink he had had that day. So he was like. It was the most refreshing sip I had had in what felt like we had.
Kylie Kelsey
I love that for Jason. He's like, oh, yeah, thank you so much. Give me some hydration. Yes. Did you have any, like, hesitations about dating a professional athlete?
Kelsey Kelsey
I told no one.
Alex Cooper
Interesting.
Kelsey Kelsey
For months. Why? Because if it was a situation where it was going to be like a, like we hooked up and that was it. I didn't want to be like. Because after a few times of hanging out, I was like, like, yeah, you're great. And there's clearly, I like, very much am into this. And so I was like, if it's just me and it's not him that's into this.
Alex Cooper
Yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
I want to make sure that I'm not then labeled the bimbo.
Kylie Kelsey
That. I get that. And that's fucking tough because you're correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel like when you're in that position, you can feel like, like because they are successful and you're someone in college, you're like, they do have the power almost. And they're up.
Alex Cooper
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
You're like, Like, I kind of don't want to get my heart broken here and I don't want to look like the idiot. Because people assume that women are flocking after these people. And you just don't want to look dumb.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
And I feel like that is a natural feeling. That's, like, hard to admit, but it's like, the reality of the situation.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah. And I didn't want to. I didn't want to seem vulnerable in that situation, to allow the space. Like, I, like I said, not super sensitive. So I was like, kind of like, if this doesn't work out, it's okay. But then it got to, like, a few times of hanging out, and I'm like, well, I would actually be, like, disappointed. Like, I'm really into him.
Kylie Kelsey
When did you know you were, like, absolutely falling in love with him?
Kelsey Kelsey
I mean, probably like two months in.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, wow.
Kelsey Kelsey
Because I was just like, we. At the very beginning, we would sit and talk for hours. Like, it was insane how long these conversations would go on.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
And it was. We would leave, and then it was one of those where like a day later he would be like, well, what are you doing tomorrow? And it was. The hangouts got more and more frequent where we were hanging out back to back days. And then, you know, it's like, well, if we're hanging out back to back days, he has to, like, feel something too. Right.
Kylie Kelsey
When did you guys, like, tell each other you loved each other? Like, who said it first?
Kelsey Kelsey
I said it first, but it was. No, it was one of those where, like, you're sort of going back and forth and you're, like, basically playing chicken.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. That's the. When you're like, I really like you, and then you're like, I can't keep saying I really like you at this point.
Kelsey Kelsey
This is. We're. We're too old for this show.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah. Yeah, he. I said it first. It was. I would say, like, at six months in, we were starting to have conversations of, like, if he wasn't playing in Philadelphia, like, would we continue dating? Like, things like that, which are. Is a very serious conversation to have. And we were having it just very casually.
Kylie Kelsey
What would you have done if he got traded to the Cowboys?
Kelsey Kelsey
It was so nice knowing I would never. I'm on record saying I would not wear other teams stuff, but that I would wear things that had my husband's name on it.
Kylie Kelsey
You are never not going to be an Eagles fan.
Kelsey Kelsey
Correct.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay, that's good. To clarify, once your friends found out you were dating him, like, I had dated this professional athlete when I was in college, and I remember he slept in my dorm room, and it made it on Twitter, and everyone was like, what the actual Fuck is that guy? He just won a World Series, and he's leaving a sophomore's dorm room, which now is, like, controversial when I think about, like, the age gap. But that's another conversation for another time. But I remember people on campus being like, cooper, what the fuck? Why is he in there? Like, did girls start to be like, kylie, what is happening?
Kelsey Kelsey
I. When I. Like, I kept it a secret a long time.
Kylie Kelsey
How long?
Kelsey Kelsey
I told no one.
Kylie Kelsey
No, no. Your one friend knew, right? Who brought you there that night?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
And then.
Kelsey Kelsey
So I had two. I had two friends on campus that knew.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay?
Kelsey Kelsey
My two closest friends.
Kylie Kelsey
And they never told anyone.
Kelsey Kelsey
They didn't tell anyone. And they. My teammates knew at some point that I was seeing someone.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, my God.
Kelsey Kelsey
And there was a. There was one time, which is funny. Cause Cabrini was such a small school, where I was talking to one of my teammates, and she said, like, who is this guy you're seeing? I was like, ah, he just. He lives in the city. And they were like, why are you being so sketchy about it? And I was like, because he has a job that's kind of public. I'm not gonna get into it.
Kylie Kelsey
When you say that, Kylie, immediately, like.
Alex Cooper
So, who is it?
Kelsey Kelsey
Well, that's what happened. And so I was just like, oh, like, he plays for the Eagles. We got there eventually. Like, it was. It was a very roundabout way, but.
Kylie Kelsey
We got there pulling teeth.
Kelsey Kelsey
One of my college teammates was like, oh, that's so funny. I know this girl from back home who met this Eagle on Tinder. No, but it can't be the same guy. Cause this guy was hideous.
Kylie Kelsey
No.
Kelsey Kelsey
I was like, really? What does he look like? And she was like, I'm gonna text her right now and figure out what his name was. Five minutes later, his name was Jason.
Kylie Kelsey
No, you're fucking lying.
Kelsey Kelsey
I was like, kylie. Yeah. It was one of those moments where you're just like, this is validation. This is why I'm not telling anyone.
Alex Cooper
Fuck.
Kelsey Kelsey
And the best part is, is that, like, nothing ever came of this girl meeting him on Tinder. And so we got. I eventually got to the bottom of that. But I just thought it was so funny that in the one moment where I was like, okay, am I gonna let my guard down and someone just comes for you? And she just was like, oh, I know a girl from back home that met an Eagle on Tinder. And I was just like, no way. Who could it be?
Kylie Kelsey
I'm going to die.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
You're like, jason.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah. I was like, okay, your Eyes twitching.
Kylie Kelsey
You're like, yeah, it's pulling out your phone. You're like, what the fuck?
Kelsey Kelsey
And it was like, it was like months before we met. Like, and.
Kylie Kelsey
But I get it. In that moment, like, there's nothing worse than finally being open to your friends and honest. And then that moment, understandably, you're dating a public person. So anyone and everyone who has had any like interaction or even seen him in a room before is gonna be like, I know him.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
And you're gonna be like, wait, what? And that must have been so jarring. Did you ever have any like, not trust issues with friends, but did you ever, once things got more serious, have people kind of you feeling like they were in it for the wrong intentions? Whether it was like asking you for tickets or just like, stuff like that?
Kelsey Kelsey
I still have reservations about like it. I still am in a situation where I always say my husband is super trusting. And it's one of the things I love about him. I'm the suspicious one. I'm the one who's like, maybe not. And it's a weird place to be because like I am in. I have three young children, almost four. I am very much in the time of my life where I should be like making mom friends. And I just, I hesitate on branching out to much because I always think like, are you just trying to double date? Because it's my husband. Is your husband. Does your husband have a hard on for my husband? Is that what they're like here?
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. Yeah, no, that's. I could see that. And I feel like obviously now you guys are even more public with obviously Travis and Taylor. So you guys are like, everyone is just like, what are you guys doing? You're like, again, I'm coloring in my kitchen. Leave me alone. Exactly how did your family react when they met Jason?
Kelsey Kelsey
They loved him. My dad found I. My dad was the last person I wanted to find out because. Because I knew he would be like, you're not a bimbo.
Kylie Kelsey
But he's an Eagles fan, right?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes. But his dad very much overwhelmed the excitement of that he's an Eagle and he. My dad is very much girl dad, like, protective. Gonna make sure that you hold yourself the right way and that you present yourself well. And he also always told my sister and I like, don't ever be dependent on the person you're with. Don't ever, like, you always need to make sure that you have your own stuff going on, that you could always support yourself, that if anything were to ever happen that you would not be Completely.
Kylie Kelsey
It's great advice.
Kelsey Kelsey
It's the best. Yeah. But he was the one I was most concerned about. My sister just so happened to be downstairs talking to my dad. And I still remember being upstairs listening to the conversation. They had been talking to the neighbor about how he was playing football. Like, tiny little kid football and that. But my dad was asking him who his favorite player was. So at that point, my sister knew the neighbor's favorite player was Jason. And so I hear Jason's name come up, and I hear my sister start to sort of egg my dad on and be like, no way. That's crazy. And so I go down the steps and I was like, you're awful. And she was like, why? And tried. She tried to rescue me. She did. I give my sister credit in this moment. She tried to rescue me. She tried to be like, hey, this is not the direction that conversation was going. And my dad was like, why are you so bothered by that? And so then we had a coming to Jesus moment.
Kylie Kelsey
We stopped. That's where you told him. You were like, well, yes, because then.
Kelsey Kelsey
My sister was like, she knows him.
Kylie Kelsey
What did your dad say?
Kelsey Kelsey
My dad was appalled. My dad was. My dad was not happy. He was actually very disturbed. Very disturbed.
Kylie Kelsey
He's like, you can't take Sunday Night Football from me, Kylie. It's like, that's.
Kelsey Kelsey
Do not ruin this. Do not ruin this for me.
Kylie Kelsey
I can't picture this.
Kelsey Kelsey
I can't separate. That's it.
Kylie Kelsey
Wait, so when did they meet for the first time?
Kelsey Kelsey
At my aunt's house in Northeast Philly. I jokingly was like, you can come if you want. Because he was like, what are you doing tonight? And I was like, going to my aunt's house. House. We're gonna have burgers and hang out. And he was like, oh. I was like, do you wanna come? And he was like, yeah, okay. I was like, oh, no. Oh, no, no, no.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, no. So he met, like, a bunch of your family, and he met the family.
Kelsey Kelsey
That I'm closest with. Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
And what was your dad. Was your dad fangirling or was he, like, a hardass?
Kelsey Kelsey
He did not fangirl. And he wasn't a hard ass.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
My dad is very warm and fuzzy. He will not stop talking if you paid him.
Kylie Kelsey
But internally was.
Kelsey Kelsey
He grew up with six sisters. Like, he knows how to get a word in. He talked to him. And afterwards, he's actually nothing. Like I would have thought a professional athlete would have been.
Kylie Kelsey
Fair love.
Kelsey Kelsey
Cause he just came in, sat down. My aunt's like, Feeding him shrimp and burgers and he was just like, okay.
Kylie Kelsey
Was your mom obsessed with him?
Kelsey Kelsey
My mom? I think I get my skepticism from my mom because she was like, she loved him, but she was like, okay.
Kylie Kelsey
So like, we'll see how this goes.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
What was your first impression of the Kelsey family?
Kelsey Kelsey
Delightful.
Kylie Kelsey
Really?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah, they're all, they're all so sweet. And honestly, the first time that I met all of them. Yeah, well, the first time I met his dad was over the phone and it freaked me out cuz they sounded so much alike. Oh, that's sounded like Jason in 50 years. It was strange love. But his mom is so sweet and they're so supportive of their sons. So sweet that it was the easiest way to bond because when they were coming into town, we were going to football games together. So it was, we were cheering together. It was like the best way to. Wait.
Kylie Kelsey
Do you remember the first time you met them?
Kelsey Kelsey
I don't remember the first time that I met his mom or dad. Really? Like that moment?
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah, yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
I remember meeting Travis for the first time because it was like eight months into dating. Like it was a while into date, maybe longer. It was a long time into dating. It was football season.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, right. Oh right, he plays football too. Oh, yeah, he was busy. All right.
Kelsey Kelsey
He was just a little bit super casual.
Kylie Kelsey
And then when did you meet him for the first time?
Kelsey Kelsey
In Hawaii for Pro Bowl. So we like ran. We ended up meeting up in like the gift shop of the hotel. And it's the first time I met him and it was just funny to me because he was like exactly on track with the rest of the family. Like warm and fuzzy, like just. I've heard so much about you and it was just like this very silly.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, oh, like they're all kind of the same vibe.
Kelsey Kelsey
You're all family.
Kylie Kelsey
How is your family different from his?
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh, a lot of ways.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
I tell everybody that, like when my friends got married, I was like, it's difficult because your in laws are now your family, but they're not your family. So like if I wanted to, like, if my dad was being ridiculous, I would call my dad and be like, you're being an asshole. So true. In a respectful way. Yes, of course. But I would never call my father in law and be like, what are you doing?
Kylie Kelsey
So true.
Kelsey Kelsey
So. And they also like, my family is very like, we talk about everything, like to a fault. Which is probably why I'm so like, I hate lying. Just say what you're gonna say. Say they will like be Very nice about. And I'm like, just say it. Are you, are you mad? Like, like, I just want to get straight for it. And they are very nice. And like, you're like, guys, not the same. But I'm like, is anyone gonna say, are we, is someone b.
Kylie Kelsey
Like that is so relatable though. I feel like I have the same thing with my husband where his family, they just call each other and they're like, what are you doing? And with my family, we all just like lightly tiptoe and we want to like, tiptoe. No, you're like, b, bash the door open. What the are you doing? And you're like, I have a problem with you. But it's so funny merging families. I agree because I love my mother in law so much. But if we are ever having just like, oh, she's being annoying. I'm like, well, Matt, you tell her like, I'm not going to call Lisa and be like, lisa, you're annoying me. But like, I agree with my mom. I'm like, you need to seriously back up. So it's like you, Yes, I agree. Family to a point. And then you're like, but I'm, there's boundaries still a thousand in a positive way.
Kelsey Kelsey
I, I, you're my family. But I want to be like aggressively respectful. Yes.
Kylie Kelsey

Kylie Kelsey
What is Donna's best quality as a mother in law?
Kelsey Kelsey
My biggest thing that I appreciate about her is that she is an amazing example of an independent woman. She is an expert traveler. She, her and Ed are no longer together. They got divorced when the boys went to college and she has not looked back. And I don't mean that in any way against Ed. I just mean it in like that she has been traveling, seeing the world like she really is fulfilling, like all of her travel dreams. And for me, I feel like that's such a cool example for our daughters that that is something that excites her soul. So why wouldn't she do it?
Kylie Kelsey
It's incredible. Yes. Okay. How Would you describe your dynamic with Travis?
Kelsey Kelsey
The sad thing is we don't get to see each other very often, but whenever we're together, it's like, it really feels like it's just like the room of siblings. Like, it's. You just sort of like, shoot the shit and have a good time, poke fun and. Yeah, yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Does he ever ask you for, like, like sisterly advice? Like, what role do you play to him?
Kelsey Kelsey
We've. We've had like, those types of conversations before. It's. It's a lot of like, just like playful banter. Like he at some point was explaining to Jason about a pair of shoes that he bought when he was like, way earlier in the league. Yeah. And I think they were like Louis or something. And he was trying to explain to me, but, like, there's. It's a red bottom. And I was like, but why do you need spikes on your shoe? And Jason was like, but how much did they cost? And like, it's almost like we like gang up on him a little bit.
Kylie Kelsey
Keep him humble.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah. But he's like, it's like the most fun dynamic. And watching the Jason and Travis together is. It's so funny because it's almost like everyone else isn't in the room anymore. Like, they'll get on a roll and it's like everyone else doesn't exist. This. And it's just the two of them. And you can almost see them, like, playing mini hockey in their basement growing up. Adorable just by the way they're bantering.
Kylie Kelsey
How are they similar and how are they different? Because I feel like they seem similar.
Kelsey Kelsey
They're very similar in their core values. Okay, so they, they are kind, sweet, generous. They both have great senses of humor, although I do think their senses of humor vary a little bit. And then there's just like. I mean, my husband, he wears what he wears and Travis is out here like, making statements with his outfit on a daily basis.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. The fashion is. Yes, there's a huge disparity here.
Kelsey Kelsey
Very much so. But that's just it. Like, their core values are. You can tell they were raised in the same house by the same people.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
And then you can tell they were into different activities.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay. Have you ever gone on a double date with Taylor and Travis?
Kelsey Kelsey
Technically, yes. Yes. I would say technic.
Kylie Kelsey
What does that mean?
Kelsey Kelsey
I mean, it wasn't out. We. We. It was at home, but yes.
Kylie Kelsey
Have you had one of her home cooked meals?
Kelsey Kelsey
I don't know that I really ate the me. This is going to sound terrible. I Didn't really eat the meal because I was eight weeks pregnant.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh.
Kelsey Kelsey
And it was one of those where like nothing.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. We were happy to be there.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay. The world saw you and Taylor meet, obviously for the first time at the Chiefs and Bills game.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
Was that the first time you had guys met?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
Really?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes. People are deeply disturbed by this.
Kylie Kelsey
Why?
Kelsey Kelsey
There was like all of this stuff leading up to it about, well, why haven't they met? They're avoiding each other. I'm not avoiding anyone. I am more than happy to meet someone, especially someone that Travis is dating. But it was funny to me because I kept saying to people, I didn't meet Travis for probably close to a year.
Kylie Kelsey
Right.
Kelsey Kelsey
When Jason and I were dating. So it. And she's busy.
Kylie Kelsey
Just a little.
Kelsey Kelsey
It's just so silly to me that that's like the storyline that's. That's written.
Kylie Kelsey
I can imagine that's also annoying because you're like. It was also like, probably like a lovely time to meet at like a football game. It was like, how did Travis tell you guys that he was dating Taylor Swift? I'm assuming like your family was like getting told this in some capacity at some point.
Kelsey Kelsey
We were not.
Kylie Kelsey
You weren't?
Kelsey Kelsey
No, we. I will say we knew before everyone else knew.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
But we were. It was not like it didn't hit the group chat. No, it did not hit the group chat.
Kylie Kelsey
Did Jason tell you?
Kelsey Kelsey
Jace and I found out together. Jason and I found out together. But we knew before, like they hard launched with her going to a game, I would assume. Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay. What is something surprising you guys have bonded over?
Kelsey Kelsey
It's. We grew up going to the same shore points, so her family was like Sea Isle, Stone harbor, fun. And that's like the exact areas that. That I grew up going to. Like, I've.
Kylie Kelsey
You went to Seattle?
Kelsey Kelsey
I've gone to Seattle city my whole life.
Kylie Kelsey
Wait, New Jersey?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Alex Cooper
I went to Avalon.
Kelsey Kelsey
Did you?
Kylie Kelsey
And my best friend had a house in sea aisle.
Kelsey Kelsey
Good vibes.
Kylie Kelsey
And I would go to the boardwalk and I would put on my little jean mini skirt. I was like.
Kelsey Kelsey
And you were doing something.
Kylie Kelsey
I was looking for something.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes. You were. Yep.
Kylie Kelsey
I would go there looking for like my nieces.
Kelsey Kelsey
That's what they do now.
Kylie Kelsey
Do you still ever go?
Kelsey Kelsey
We have a house in Seattle.
Kylie Kelsey
What?
Kelsey Kelsey
You do? Yeah, we still go to Seattle. Yeah. I will never not go to Seattle. People are like, oh, you're going to graduate, you're going to go to Avalon or Stone Harbor. And I'm like, oh, no. The one time we were on the beach in Avalon and someone came up to us and they were talking to Jason and they were like, ah, isn't Avalon great? And Jason's like, well, we usually stay in Sea Aisle. This is such a niche conversation for people who don't.
Kylie Kelsey
People don't. It's like the Jersey Shore. Let's preface the Jersey Shore. But it's not the Jersey Shore.
Kelsey Kelsey
It's not the Jersey Shore. That is the Jersey scene, because South Jersey Shore is very different from Seaside Heights. The man on the beach in Avalon said to Jason, well, good thing you're in Avalon. We don't really have the riff raff that Sea Aisle has. And as soon as he walked away, I said to Jason, he doesn't realize he was speaking to the riffraff. That's us.
Kylie Kelsey
Dude, I love Sea Isle.
Kelsey Kelsey
It's the best.
Kylie Kelsey
I'm happy that you guys still have a house there.
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh, yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Never leave.
Alex Cooper
Leave.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay. You have three kids. You're pregnant, obviously, with your fourth.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
How have you been feeling overall in this pregnancy?
Kelsey Kelsey
Pregnant.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
I get nauseous all the way through. It's been every single one.
Kylie Kelsey
For all the men listening, this is very important.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
What are three things that a husband should absolutely do when his wife is pregnant? Just, like, give the men some tips. Like, what do we need?
Kelsey Kelsey
Remember that your wife is growing a human.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
Like, I mean, sometimes I think guys are like, oh, she's fine. And I'm like, no. I'm like, you're actively building a human being. So, like, just some. Give her some grace. No. Remember that it's not infinite, that this too shall pass. And so for the women who are, like, extreme, like, I've had pregnancies where I've been really, really emotional. And after the pregnancy, I'm like, jason, I don't know how you did that. Jesus, thank you for sticking with me. Yeah. So this too shall pass. And then mostly I think it's important to remember that she needs your support in postpartum more than she did during pregnancy. Postpartum is one of the hardest things I've ever done in my whole life. Yeah. Labor is like a drop in the bucket compared to postpartum. Wow. So I think that, like, giving your significant other grace, I feel like for.
Kylie Kelsey
So long, like, I don't have kids yet and I want kids. And as a woman, I feel like for so many years, probably like decades, like, there was this one just misconception about, like, pregnancy for women is just like, oh, my God, it's amazing. And you see these ads and it's smiles and it's rainbows and no one was really talking about, like, how fudgeing hard it is. And I think that. And it's not meant to make people feel scared, but it's the reality. And I appreciate you bringing up postpartum because I think that was something that no one really talked about because there was a shame where women felt like, oh my God, is there something wrong with me that I'm not feeling great? I just gave birth. Like, and I think your podcast and women talking about it, like, those are the conversations that are going to actually allow women to, to feel genuinely better about themselves because they know other women are going through it. And we're not all like siloed in different sectors being like, what's your experience? Like? And you're like whispering about it.
Kelsey Kelsey
I just can't imagine feeling the feelings that I felt and not having women around me to be like, that's not, that's not abnormal. Like, you are having the same. Because when I brought home our first. You, like, give birth. My husband leaves the hospital the next morning to go to work. My dad had to pick Wyatt and I up from the hospital as a newborn. I get home and I look at this baby for the next however many weeks. They don't smile at you for like six to eight weeks on purpose. So like, you're like grasping at straws here of like, are we cool? Like, what's, are we good? But I had this, I very much had this moment looking at Wyatt of like, but you're mine and I made you. And like, I did not feel that immediate. Like, this is my baby and I will, like, I didn't have that. I didn't have that sensationalized. Like, I'm a mother now. It was like a slow ease in when she fought. I always tell mom, moms, especially first time moms, that six to eight weeks, when they start to smile at you on purpose, you're like, oh, we're cool. Like, we're. You're connect. There is a connection here because before that they are a blob. They cry, they poop, they eat, they sleep. That's it.
Kylie Kelsey
But even when you just said that, Kylie, don't you feel like there is like a level of anxiety? I'm sure for some women, I don't know if you had it in like even admitting that. Even though it's probably the more common experience.
Kelsey Kelsey
Think of how horrible that sounds, right? Think of how horrible that you just built a Human being. You give birth.
Alex Cooper
Yes.
Kelsey Kelsey
And you're holding, like, this tiny little being that is completely dependent on you. And you're like, how it is so difficult to admit that you were not just, like, this is the moment. Right.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Kelsey Kelsey
But to be able to say that out loud and to have other women hear it so that you're not racked with guilt when you take your first baby home and, like, realize that you're not having that moment of, like, this is the most beautiful thing ever. Like, we're both in diapers. I have a cooling pad on my lady bits. I am, like, afraid to sit down at any given point. Cause it hurts so bad. And at the same time, every two hours, I'm supposed to connect you to my boob and something's gonna happen. It is like.
Kylie Kelsey
But it's beautiful.
Kelsey Kelsey
Beautiful.
Alex Cooper
It's beautiful.
Kylie Kelsey
No. And that is why I think people are loving you being so just honest about your experiences. And again, like, I commend every woman out there that has had the best experience where they're like, my baby came out, it flew onto my chest, and we've been happy ever since. Amazing.
Kelsey Kelsey
I love that.
Kylie Kelsey
I love that for you.
Kelsey Kelsey
I hope that that's most people's experience.
Kylie Kelsey
I agree. But I appreciate you being honest about it because it's.
Kelsey Kelsey
It's like, it's not. Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
I think it's a lot more times your experience is more common.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
And no one was talking about it. So when the first few women started admitting it, you.
Alex Cooper
I know.
Kylie Kelsey
I've seen things online of people, like, back in the day being like, what is wrong with her? Like, is she depressed? Is she, like, maybe, but I don't know. Let's figure it out.
Kelsey Kelsey
Because that also happens.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. What is Jason's best quality as a father?
Kelsey Kelsey
Oh, his patience. He has. So when I do think that we have a very complimentary dynamic that he can tell when I've, like, reached my breaking point. And he will tag in in the most, like, calm. Come on, Ellie. Like, we'll go try this. Or he gets them to eat more food than I could ever even imagine, because he'll just sit at the table and be like, well, that looks good to try. Or it's just that this. He's firm when he needs to be, but he has this degree of patience where I'm just like, this is great.
Kylie Kelsey
Is he excited for four, or is he, like, okay, we need to, like, bunker down and figure out how we're going to manage for.
Kelsey Kelsey
No, I think he's. He's Ready for it. We just live in, like, a state of chaos. Like, we're just like, this is fun.
Kylie Kelsey
Love.
Kelsey Kelsey
Having fun. Love.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay, last two questions. What do you think is the biggest misconception about your family?
Kelsey Kelsey
That we're more interesting than we are.
Kylie Kelsey
That's the biggest takeaway.
Kelsey Kelsey
That's the biggest misconception that we are more interesting than we are. I think that people don't realize, similar to what we were saying earlier about, like, you meet people in the public eye, and you're just like, oh, they're a person. We very much want our girls to live, like, a very normal life, and in an attempt to do that, we very much conduct ourselves in a very normal way at home, where I think people would be extremely underwhelmed with what goes on.
Kylie Kelsey
It's not so Hollywood.
Kelsey Kelsey
Not even a little bit.
Kylie Kelsey
Are you guys going to always, you think, stay in Philly area?
Kelsey Kelsey
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
Love. Yeah, I love that. Okay. Jason obviously is retired, but I feel like he's working more than ever. And you just launched your podcast. What do you think this next chapter of your lives is going to be? Because, obviously, I feel like when he was playing, you guys had probably this routine, and now you've kind of, like, launched into this new era, I guess, of your life. Life. Like, what can we expect, and what are you expecting?
Kelsey Kelsey
That's a good question. I have no idea.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
I am not much of a planner. Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
It's okay.
Kelsey Kelsey
I am really enjoying what we currently have going on. I love that I'm getting to talk to incredible women. I love that we're having conversations that I think people want to hear or, like, people are getting to learn with me. I. Like, we'll. We'll see where that goes. But ultimately, like, we have three little ladies, one on the way. I'm excited to see, like, what the next one's personality is like. I am excited to see, like, what our girls look like when they're starting kindergarten and all that kind of stuff. So, yeah, I don't know. I mean, we are super busy. We're just. I'm gonna keep dating my husband and taking care of my kids and.
Kylie Kelsey
Love.
Kelsey Kelsey
Yeah, Love. See where. Where the wind takes us, I guess.
Kylie Kelsey
Well, I am so happy we finally got to sit down. It was like, you are having me such a pleasure. Like, you're so normal and lovely to talk to. I literally feel like I'm, like, back in Philly in my basement talking to you, and we're hanging out. We're about to, like, turn off the Eagles game. And be like, woo. Go, Eagles. But thank you so much for taking the time because I know you're so busy.
Kelsey Kelsey
No, thank you. And thank you. I always like to give flowers where they're needed. So I do just want to say, like, and it usually stems from the idea of, like, that you are an example of a woman who is doing her thing and leading the way. And, like, even back to when you were having conversations that were like, oh, my God, women are talking about that stuff and, like, you were openly talking about it, you are, like, removing stigmas or, like, making it appropriate for women to speak the way we should get to fucking speak. So thank you for doing that and thank you for being an example that, I mean, my girls get to live in a better world because you've broken through barriers. So thank you.
Kylie Kelsey
Thank you so much. This was an honor.
Kelsey Kelsey
