Wondery that glare coming through that end zone in the afternoon is ridiculous.

[Jason Kelsey]

Jerry Jones was asked about the possibility of putting up curtains to block out the sun at AT and T Stadium. He said, well, where's the moon? I I need to hear this.

[Travis Kelsey]

[Jason Kelsey]

And we got some fun clips throughout the week that I'm sure you guys will laugh at because we're idiots. Jason, tell the people what us idiots are going to talk about today.

[Jason Kelsey]

Well, all the idiots listening. We have a fantastic episode lined up for all of you. That's right. We're going to talk about the Chiefs walk off blocked field goal. The Eagles blow out of the Cowboys. Sorry there, Brandon. And also get to my time out of the house in la. Plus, we're going to hit the biggest story lines, of course, from across week 10. All right, the NFL. I think we got to start with something we usually start with first.

[Travis Kelsey]

What's that?

[Jason Kelsey]

It's not old.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's not.

[Jason Kelsey]

It's not late.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's not.

[Jason Kelsey]

It's not a hand me down.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's not not new.

[Jason Kelsey]

It's not not new. That's because it is new. It's new. New.

[Travis Kelsey]

New news.

[Jason Kelsey]

New news is brought to you by metaQuest. Expand your world.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yes.

[Jason Kelsey]

All right. New Heights Film Club. First Item of new news, 92% is voted in the next movie. And the new Heights Film Club is. Roadhouse.

[Travis Kelsey]

Shut the. We're doing the original, right?

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, I'm not doing the new. I do. I have not watched it yet and I probably am based on the reviews I've heard from others. Not going to.

[Travis Kelsey]

The original ones are so good, man.

[Jason Kelsey]

There's some movies that you just can't remake and I think Roadhouse is who's gonna. You can't redo Swayze.

[Travis Kelsey]

You can't do nobody around that can do Swayze.

[Jason Kelsey]

So, yeah, it was a tight race. I'm lying. It wasn't a tight race at all. Roadhouse almost got half of the votes. He got 41% of. That's what we're talking about.

[Travis Kelsey]

92 percenters. That's what I'm talking about.

[Jason Kelsey]

It was the clear favorite. And I mean, let's be honest. I think of all these movies, Roadhouse is the most, like, iconic. And that's why I probably won.

[Travis Kelsey]

Predator is by far the most iconic.

[Jason Kelsey]

More than Roadhouse, you think?

[Travis Kelsey]

Oh, guarantee. I think people. I think your underestimate were interested because Patrick Swayze, they were like, all right, which one has the hottest guy?

[Jason Kelsey]

Well, which one is the hottest guy? Predators got the hottest guys. You got Carl Weathers, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jesse Ventura. I mean, come on now. There's a lot of man.

[Travis Kelsey]

No way.

[Jason Kelsey]

Oh, yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

There's no way. None of them are Swayze.

[Jason Kelsey]

Don't underestimate too not. Oh, my gosh. What's the other guy in Roadhouse? What's his name? I can't think of his name right now. The cowboy. Awesome mustache. Oh, Sam Elliott. Thank you, Brandon. He kills it. Roadhouse has definitely got, like, a more like cult following than any of these films, but I think Bloodsport is by far the one that I preferred. But you win some, you lose some. My ability to sway votes has definitely gone downhill. It did not work again, because everyone.

[Travis Kelsey]

Knows your tactics now. You gotta start flanking, Jason. You gotta start flanking. Think ahead of the curve. Everybody's scheming you up, man.

[Jason Kelsey]

There are also some 92 percenters who are confused in the comments about what Bloodsport is.

[Travis Kelsey]

This is.

[Jason Kelsey]

So I had to clear things up for him there, Trav.

[Travis Kelsey]

Clear things up for them. You had a back and forth with Te Ronto Jordan from Toronto. She said, what is this movie about? And you replied with Bloodsport. Just the title. Just right back at her. That's what it's about. And then she. Then, I just voted Bloodsport, but I. I still don't know what it is. And you then replied again with it's Bloodsport is what it is. And I thought that was. It was very clever because that's exactly what it is. There's no other. There's no other, like, review or explanation you need to give. Once you see the movie, you will then tell everybody else exactly what it's about. And it's about Bloodsport.

[Jason Kelsey]

I mean, it's. I guess it's about, like, the Kumite tournament and, you know all that, but.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, but the tournament's about Bloodsport.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, exactly. At the end of the day, it's Bloodsport. It's about the power of friendship. The power of friendship.

[Travis Kelsey]

Don't do this, all right? We're trying to.

[Jason Kelsey]

Let's not try and make like a thematic.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah. Out of the brotherhood of Bloodsport. Okay? This is Bloodsport. We will give everyone time to watch this movie. So we'll. We'll drop our review later this month. In the meantime, tomorrow, we are going to dip back into the heights hotline and answer some more of your burning relationship questions. I don't know if that's right, ladies.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

You guys been watching Jumanji?

[Jason Kelsey]

Oh, dude, it's actually a nice little code now. I just text her if she wants to watch Jumanji early in the day. Same way. That'll be playing Jedi mind tricks.

[Travis Kelsey]

Don't get stuck in the game, folks.

[Jason Kelsey]

I text Kylie, she watched Jumanji today and she said, drier than the Sahara desert. And I was like, that movie takes place in the rainforest. Ah.

[Travis Kelsey]

Jason has dethroned the queen of Christmas. The amazing, the wonderful Mariah Carey.

[Jason Kelsey]

Oh, buddy.

[Travis Kelsey]

A Philly special Christmas party, maybe this Christmas by affiliate specials. And Stevie Nicks is the number one Christmas song on the charts right now.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

The duet with Stevie Nicks is officially the number one Christmas song. And beat out All I want for Christmas is you by Mariah Carey. And I mean, that song is as good as it gets when it comes to Christmas music. Jason, how does it feel to officially be the queen of Christmas?

[Jason Kelsey]

You know, I've fought my whole life to be the queen of Christmas and the fact that we're finally there is just. It's really special. I forget what the stat was. Somebody said, I think all I want for Christmas is you has like been.

[Travis Kelsey]

The number one Christmas song since 1994. I don't know if it's since 1994.

[Jason Kelsey]

But it's been like for like 20 years it's been non stop like the number one Christmas song or something like that.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, of course.

[Jason Kelsey]

So, you know, I know we, we, we caught it in early November. We'll see if it holds up throughout the rest of Christmas. We kind of caught it on the Christmas down slide. Like not too many people are listening to Christmas music, so we kind of.

[Travis Kelsey]

Jump snuck in there. Yeah, I get it.

[Jason Kelsey]

I'll take it when I can get it. That's pretty. And it was incredible to work with Stevie Nicks. I mean, obviously we. I just am still in awe of the fact that that actually happened, Stevie. And this is really, really cool. Not. I mean, there is no percent chance any song that I am in should be streaming number one on any service in any genre.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, well, don't give yourself too much credit, Stevie Nicks.

[Jason Kelsey]

That's exactly right. Yes, good point.

[Travis Kelsey]

No, man, that's. That's Some cool ass, man. I can't wait for everything to drop. It drops day after Thanksgiving.

[Jason Kelsey]

So the song is out now. The single came out, but.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, the single came out, but the.

[Jason Kelsey]

Album will be fully streamable, I think. I think it's like the day after Thanksgiving.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, I think that's what the album.

[Jason Kelsey]

Goes for sale, but it's already preordered. We got to ask Connor. Connor knows all the details. I don't know half of the details. I just have fun make the music. He knows how the released structure works. I'm an idiot. I just show up and I get it. It's coming out slowly. We got another single coming out this week with our friends from Mount Joy.

[Travis Kelsey]

Nice iconic Philly band.

[Jason Kelsey]

That song's tremendous. So pretty excited to see how that does.

[Travis Kelsey]

Hell, yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

I think we're going to be releasing this tomorrow, but I'm going to be putting on a concert before this Thursday night game with Mount Joy.

[Travis Kelsey]

I'm sorry, what? You're going to do live music, Dude.

[Jason Kelsey]

I'm performing the song that we recorded for the album live at the Link before the game starts with Mount Joy. And I kind of feel. I don't know if this is the right thing to do. Like, the Eagles are about to play like a heated, like the most important game of the year. They're playing the Washington Commanders, and me and Mount Joy are going to go in there before the game kicks off and perform a Christmas song because we want to help raise money for the album.

[Travis Kelsey]

What game is this?

[Jason Kelsey]

It's Eagles versus Washington. The Commanders. This week. This week it's on Thursday. It's.

[Travis Kelsey]

I mean, it's a little me, but. All right.

[Jason Kelsey]

And see, initially I was like, yeah, let's just do something Thursday.

[Travis Kelsey]

Now you're doing this in two days?

[Jason Kelsey]

Yes. Dude, bro. We initially were like, we're just going to do something in the parking lot. It'll be fun, like, just to like get it on video to help promote it and somehow it's turned into were full on have like a stage in the Link in a part of it. And we're just going to be performing this song right before the most important game of the Eagle season to date takes place. So.

[Travis Kelsey]

Well, so, yeah, you better make it epic.

[Jason Kelsey]

Well, my voice is shot. I don't know if you can tell. So it's probably going to be.

[Jason Kelsey]

To a little bit that bold topics to wrap up Week 10 in the NFL, starting with the Kansas City Chiefs.

[Travis Kelsey]

Anna, how about those Jeeves?

[Jason Kelsey]

Chiefs 16, Broncos 14. Man, that was a crazy. I was watching this game actually at Big Deans down in Venice beach, which is a New York Giants bar, which was embarrassing for them right after losing to the Panthers, but the whole bar was absolutely losing it with this one. You guys trail the entire game up until the fourth quarter, which in typical fashion, you guys then take the lead and it comes down to. I mean, what is this, a 35 year. Yeah, 35 yard field goal kick. I mean, probably the most electric way to end a game. I used to think like, hail Mary or like a touchdown walk off touchdown. I don't think there's anything more electric than blocking a kick to win a game that the place just erupted the entire.

[Travis Kelsey]

I don't think I had been a part of the stadium where it went fucking ape, dude. I can only imagine my eye, it got me to the point where my eyes, like the emotion and everything. My eyes started watering and I was like getting goosebumps. I'm like, this is insane how we just got through here with a win.

[Jason Kelsey]

And we were talking, like, right when it led up, the whole bar where we were at had pretty much. Okay, well, the Chiefs just lost their first game. Like, the Broncos did a great job. They did. What you need to do to beat the Chiefs, don't give the ball back to Pat Mole. Whatever you do, do not give it back. Milk the clock. They got it down to one second.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

Tj, who was the bartender, was like, I don't know, man. They still got to make the kick. And I. And I literally was like, you know what? There have been a lot of blocks this year. I swear to God.

[Travis Kelsey]

That's insane to talk about it like that.

[Jason Kelsey]

I mean, but I was like, you know what? It could.

[Travis Kelsey]

I mean, I guess Kareem was on the sidelines screaming it. We're about to block this pun. I'm just in My head. I'm just like, it's only one loss, Travis.

[Jason Kelsey]

You're like, it's not a pun.

[Travis Kelsey]

I was already in my head. I was already. I was already. No, I mean, my bad. You blocked this game. My bad. He was saying he was going to block this kick, but I was already. I was in my head from not scoring a touchdown on the drive right before that and, like, forcing them to score a touchdown instead of kick a field goal.

[Jason Kelsey]

I know exactly what player you.

[Travis Kelsey]

You look like.

[Jason Kelsey]

Just couldn't quite get your feeding footing to, like, jump. It was, like, awkward time.

[Travis Kelsey]

It was that one. It was a great ball by Pat. I was fading, so I didn't have my feet under me to be able to just spring up and. Yep, two plays or three plays before that, I. I actually got a first down, but they went cover zero, and all I had to do was make one guy miss, and he. He wrapped my leg, he wrapped my shoes up.

[Jason Kelsey]

And that's the one you're talking about.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah. It's just, you know, I. I think I've. I've put that much pressure on myself or that much accountability on myself to make that guy miss and be there. Be that, like, difference maker.

[Jason Kelsey]

I hear you.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's just, for whatever reason, it was a good tackle by six, and I hate myself for it. I hate that. You know, everybody's looking at Pat for, like, he overthrew me on that last play. It was a great ball. I just didn't have my feet under me to go up and get it. The ball didn't even. It's not even like it went over like, the crossbars. Like. Like, it was a very catchable ball. If I would.

[Jason Kelsey]

It was right on the. On the. I think if you would have had footing, you definitely could have jumped up and got it, but. Yeah, but either way, this is why you have teammates.

[Travis Kelsey]

This is. And I was in. I was in the tank and these guys, yet again, when I do something stupid or I up, my guys are right there to pick me up. And it's. It was awesome to see a guy like Leo Chanel be the difference maker.

[Jason Kelsey]

That's what I was about to say. We talk about teammates, man. Like, I. The way you've talked about him and the way it feels like all the Kansas City Chiefs talk about this guy like, he is the ultimate teammate. He does so many things. You guys will put him at fullback. He plays D line, he plays linebacker. He does all these things for the Chiefs, and on top of that, he blocks kicks to win. Games.

[Travis Kelsey]

Ain't that the truth.

[Jason Kelsey]

Let's talk about this a little bit. Let's rewind this. Brandon, if we can get it back to the start here. So 54 is. That position is called tight end on field goal. And I'm just letting you know this right now, people, it is the worst position.

[Travis Kelsey]

It is arguably the hardest position on any special teams unit. This guy is being taught to stab the guy that is in the gap inside of him. Yep, Stab the guy that is in the gap outside of him, inside of him and outside of him. And then on top of that, take a fucking guy right down the center.

[Jason Kelsey]

NFL player.

[Travis Kelsey]

And you're not even allowed to touch.

[Jason Kelsey]

It with your hands.

[Travis Kelsey]

And you're just. You're just here and they tell you to die slow.

[Jason Kelsey]

That's the.

[Travis Kelsey]

That is literally the coaching on it is like, we know you're going to.

[Jason Kelsey]

You're going to get your ass.

[Travis Kelsey]

You're going to get your ass beat. All right? We put our toughest guy in there. We just need you to be stout for two seconds or however long it takes for them to snap the ball and kick it. Like, we just need you to have that, like two seconds, like, strain to finish. And that's why they say die slow. Because you. You typically end up on your ass every time.

[Jason Kelsey]

Every time they put this kind of rush where there's three guys over top of you, you are going. Three people pushing on you, you're gonna fall. Just don't fall too fast, essentially.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

And he fell licky. I'm not gonna lie. This was.

[Travis Kelsey]

He got.

[Jason Kelsey]

I don't even. Like, you look at where his butt is. You gotta get your butt up a little bit more than that.

[Travis Kelsey]

You know, we need more flat back. We need more flat.

[Jason Kelsey]

Exactly. We're not. We're not worried about our head being down or anything. You got to get job done.

[Travis Kelsey]

But yeah, we got to bring Newton's law into this thing and start breaking up protractor.

[Jason Kelsey]

We used to say this guy used to be. We used to say he's the most unselfish player on the team. Before when there was a kickoff return and a wedge unit.

[Travis Kelsey]

Oh, yeah, wedge unit.

[Jason Kelsey]

And this guy. But now that there's no more wedge unit, this guy takes a cake. Like, you're going to get killed.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

And what's unique about this too is like, I don't know if we still do this, to be honest with you, because I don't. I haven't been in the field goal meetings in a while, but typically the field Side tight end is a. Is a bigger body guy that dies slower because the way the kick has to go on the right hash, it's going to go to the left. So teams will usually put their bigger, better tight end to the field.

[Travis Kelsey]

They.

[Jason Kelsey]

A lot of times they won't play sides. It looked like Chicago just played these guys on sides. They didn't really, like, swap them. Like, we. I know Jordan mulatto when he used to do this. We used to put Jordan melodic to the field when Bo Allen used to do this, he was really good at it. We would put him to the field because we knew that the rush, if they were going to get there, had to come from that angle on a.

[Travis Kelsey]

Hash, which also makes it very interesting. And I don't want to call anybody out. I think it's already been noticed that 54 for Denver. I'm not sure of his name, but he was. He was kind of. He was getting pointed out in the special teams, like film that, hey, this guy isn't necessarily dying as slow as you would hope.

[Jason Kelsey]

Of course.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, you would hope that You. You. You fix that before you get put in a situation like this. And ironically, the play before this, they did a play. The. The quarterback did a. Or the. The offense did a. A play where it's. They snapped the ball and they run the ball over to the right hash and take a knee.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, yeah, they centered it.

[Travis Kelsey]

So now the K over the left side of the offensive line or the field goal block or the field goal unit. That's right where kind of the 54 is. And I mean, it's just. It matched up perfectly for us to really give us, like, confidence that we could go and get it. But at the end of the day, all. Everything goes down to making the play. And you see gods like Leo Chanel and George Karloftis, who's right here shooting. What is that? The. The C gap as well. Trying to get in there. Yeah, Moan them down and they're all.

[Jason Kelsey]

Going through that gap.

[Travis Kelsey]

Everyone's going right through that gap. You could tell it was a. It was an effort in something that coach Tobe, one of the best special teams coordinators of. Of the NFL's history. He had. He had dialed in on that one to make sure our guys knew that that was a. That was a weak point or something that we could take advantage of.

[Jason Kelsey]

And for those of you wondering why you would put the ball in the right hash, a lot of the times kickers actually don't want the ball in the middle of the field. They Prefer having an angle on the kick. And they'll ask the kicker, hey, do you want this on the right hash or the left hash? When they have enough time like this in a crucial moment, they're going to try and make it as easy or put in a position where the kicker has as much confidence as possible. So they put it on the right hash.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

Unknowingly making it more vulnerable to being blocked because of where the pressure was coming the majority of the game. And I don't want to like, listen, I'm going to give Alex all the credit in the world. That position sucks.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's the worst.

[Jason Kelsey]

So hard.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's the worst. It is not like it's so easy.

[Jason Kelsey]

For us to say, why isn't he leaning forward? Well, the problem is once you start leaning, then they start jumping the other gaps like it's show you it's a position that is really hard to be right on. You have to have great balance. It was not executed well for him obviously on that play. But part of it's also just like he didn't get his foot down, which would have helped him. But what an amazing effort and just outstanding play from Carloftis and from Leo Chanel. And was that Chris Jones who was also in on that on the inside?

[Travis Kelsey]

Mike Pennell.

[Jason Kelsey]

Mike Pennell, Mike.

[Travis Kelsey]

So Jack Cochran getting in there. Everybody was in that thing.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, it was, it was an insane effort on a play that's like, you know, at that point you got to be. You can't help but think a little bit like, God dang, man, this is damn near games over.

[Travis Kelsey]

Almost like, I mean, I was. I told you I was in the fucking tank.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, you ha. I mean, especially on the sideline when you can't make a difference, you're like, come on guys, please, somebody please make a play. But like, you know, the chances that that happens is so small, I think couldn't happen to a better guy. It seems like in Leo Chanel loved everything that happened after the game. So yeah, couldn't happen to a better teammate, it seems. Everybody pumping up John Cena here.

[Travis Kelsey]

They got it when he comes out of the tunnel next they gotta hit him with the John Cena.

[Jason Kelsey]

It's gotta be for now on. Yes. Dude.

[Travis Kelsey]

He's like the strength of the dog.

[Jason Kelsey]

He's like the strength of a D lineman, but he plays the linebacker position. You don't want to be the guy on the end when he's working out, bro.

[Travis Kelsey]

He made my training camp living hell going against a man. And I loved every Bit of it, too. He's just such a. He's such a good teammate, accountable every single day. And you just love to see a guy, get a guy, have success like that, knowing how much he fucking. He works, man.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah. What. What did he do to make it, I don't know, hard for you?

[Travis Kelsey]

I mean, he's just. He's like long arms. He gets those. He gets his hands on you in terms of reroutes. Spags was playing some defensive stuff that he knew we. We were going to play some good tight ends this year, so he wanted to have some packages in to kind of slow down the tight end off the ball. And Leo was the guy that's just making my day. Hell, the third day in practice and just standing in front of me and just making sure that I don't get into my route.

[Jason Kelsey]

Can't get right into your route. Throw the timing off.

[Travis Kelsey]

And then on top of that, blocking them is just. It's one of the hardest things because his arms are so long and he plays with such good leverage, man.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, it's got good ankle flexion. Yeah, it's always a bummer. All right. Mike Pennel also said, Leo, before the play, he said that he was going to do it. So we all had faith in each other. He was unwavering faith in his ability. So we're all behind him. We call him the Beast. He is the Beast. Mahomes calls him John Cena. Everybody else calls him the Beast. This guy's got some great nicknames.

[Travis Kelsey]

I mean, dude, do you know his nickname from college?

[Jason Kelsey]

What's his nickname from college?

[Travis Kelsey]

Death Row.

[Jason Kelsey]

Death Row.

[Travis Kelsey]

Death Row.

[Jason Kelsey]

Death Row records. Why is he Death Row dude?

[Travis Kelsey]

I mean, watch it. Watch how he plays. You'll get it.

[Jason Kelsey]

All right.

[Travis Kelsey]

This my favorite clip ever, though.

[Jason Kelsey]

What?

[Travis Kelsey]

When he got drafted, they asked Leo Chanel, what are you going to bring to Kansas City? And he looked at. He looked at that reporter. Violence and physicality.

[Jason Kelsey]

Wow, that's a good answer. That's a football guy answer right there.

[Travis Kelsey]

Can somebody please pull up that. We gotta find you find that video. I think it was violence and physicality. I forget what it was. Leo, what do you bring to the.

[Jason Kelsey]

Table for the kingdom?

[Travis Kelsey]

Violence and physicality.

[Jason Kelsey]

Man.

[Travis Kelsey]

I am addicted to hitting people.

[Jason Kelsey]

I love it. I can't get enough.

[Travis Kelsey]

Let's go. What a. I'm addicted to hitting people.

[Jason Kelsey]

The whole crowd just erupts.

[Travis Kelsey]

You just got someone that loves to assault people for a living. And I will take full advantage of being able to assault the man in front of Me.

[Jason Kelsey]

Leo, can you give a. Give us a nuanced answer as to why you are going to be a great pick for the Kansas Violence and physicality. That reminds me. That reminds me. That reminds me so much of that Marshawn lynch interview.

[Travis Kelsey]

Like his high school interview?

[Jason Kelsey]

No, he's doing an interview and the reporter is, like, asking him questions. He's like, there's not too many people that can take you running through somebody's face over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. And the guy said, the reporter says, is there some type of. I forget. He tries to, like, have some, like, quick, like, smart comeback where it's like, oh, is there something symbolic in that? And he said, run through a motherfucker face.

[Travis Kelsey]

I mean, Marshall is gold, man. God damn, I would have loved to fucking play with that guy.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah. The field goal attempt almost didn't happen. It was reported on Pro Football Talk that there was talk among the Chiefs defense of possibly letting the Broncos score at the end as a strategy to get the ball back. And I'll explain this. We. Every team has a play in their playbook on defense. When you're out of timeouts, there's no way for you to stop the clock anymore. You actually let the team score just so you get an opportunity to get the ball back.

[Travis Kelsey]

You have to be within a score, though.

[Jason Kelsey]

It's a last ditch effort. It usually happens with seconds. Like you're under a minute on the play clock and you're like, man, they're going to get a field goal. We can't stop the clock anymore. Let's just let them score a touchdown because then maybe we can somehow get in the end zone if we get the ball back. And I was actually in that same bar wondering if you guys were going to do that. So it's interesting to know that you guys are also thinking about it because it was in that this was the situation where it's like, we're in, I don't know what you guys call. I think we used to. I don't even want to say we used to call because I don't know if that'll tip it off, but like.

[Travis Kelsey]

Just let them score mode. Let them score mode.

[Jason Kelsey]

But you don't want to make it too easy. We actually tried it on you guys very unconvincingly and you guys took a kneel down and didn't score. Unfortunately, we would have hoped you would have scored.

[Travis Kelsey]

This is a situation where sometimes you'll actually see the defense try and carry a guy in like carry attack, like try and make a tackle, carry him into, you know, seriously. And so if you ever see that at the end of a game, sometimes.

[Jason Kelsey]

It requires a little bit of acting ability. You don't want to just make it obvious you're letting them score. You want to actually miss a tackle on.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yep.

[Jason Kelsey]

On purpose. But either way, Spags reportedly said, no, we're not doing that. We're going to make this stop and force him to make the kick. Interesting. I mean, listen in Spags strategy, it worked.

[Travis Kelsey]

I don't know. We trust, baby.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, right. In retrospect, it's absolutely bonkers that you guys blocked this kick. And I think it's the. It's like I said before, it is probably the most electric way to end a game on a block.

[Travis Kelsey]

Dude, it was, I mean, double thump.

[Jason Kelsey]

To end it like that is absolutely freaking crazy.

[Travis Kelsey]

Especially from 35 yards out. It's one thing if it's from fucking deep, man.

[Jason Kelsey]

Exactly. Like this is like a. I don't know what the. It was. It was a build.

[Travis Kelsey]

It was a buildup.

[Jason Kelsey]

92% chance that the field goes. Going in.

[Travis Kelsey]

I might even be higher than that. The, the fact that it was kind of building up from like the two minute. Because we use just about all our time as I think we had one left. But yeah, we used all our timeouts, tried to set it up so that we would have time left. And they get the big first down on the third down play that gets them into field goal range and now they keep just like slowly taking off the clock. Slowly taking off the clock. So it's like building up. It's like how do we let him get to this point, man? Now it's like the chances are slim and then. And the top just pops off and just the entire stadium just goes nuts. It was insane, man. Yeah, you don't have too many regular season games that get the stadium rocking like that, man.

[Jason Kelsey]

For sure.

[Travis Kelsey]

But little Chiefs Broncos always gets it going.

[Jason Kelsey]

Well, another thing, they got it rocking on social media after the game. The Chanel jersey incident. My God, Leo, man, this was pretty cool. Once coach Reed finishes post game remarks, he let Chanel break down the team's final huddle. A first time moment for him in his career. A few minutes later.

[Travis Kelsey]

I don't know who's writing this.

[Jason Kelsey]

I don't know, but I'm just going to read it because I don't know anything. A few minutes later, before his post game shower, Chanel asked Kelsey for something he's wanted since his rookie Season. Just before Chanel left the locker room, Kelsey, still shirtless, gave his teammate the memento he wanted. His red game worn 87 jersey with his signature and a short message to Chanel written in black sharpie on the white number seven. And Chanel said, I've been waiting for the right time. Smiling, I felt I earned it. Oh, my God, that's pretty awesome, man.

[Travis Kelsey]

He earned it. He earned it just by fucking. And this is actually, this is my fault. Of course it's my fault. I. He said, he mentioned that he wanted it since his rookie, his rookie year. He came up to me and asked me for. And I was like, dude, yeah, that's. I would. No problem, man. I'll write this thing out to you and in a heartbeat. And sure enough, I. I forget to do it that day. And two years later I'm sitting here, he comes up to me and calls me out. He's like, you still owe me a jersey. I'm like, God damn. Today's the day you're getting it, brother.

[Jason Kelsey]

This is how you know we're brothers.

[Travis Kelsey]

So he's got the. Not only the game, game winning block kick jersey, I, I put the date on it. I told him how. How much I appreciate him being a, a teammate and a Super bowl champion with me, so.

[Jason Kelsey]

Oh, that's awesome.

[Travis Kelsey]

Ironically, it was the, it was the day I became the, the leading touchdown.

[Jason Kelsey]

Oh, my gosh.

[Travis Kelsey]

Reception. Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

Well, did you touchdown reception or you tied Tony? I can't remember which one.

[Travis Kelsey]

I think I might have tied him.

[Jason Kelsey]

I think you tied Tony.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, which I tied him on that day. So I, I made sure to write that down there on him.

[Jason Kelsey]

That's awesome.

[Travis Kelsey]

When I told that to him, he was, he was sitting there like, what? No, no, I can't. I'm like, it's in good hands. It's yours, brother.

[Jason Kelsey]

Dude, that's crazy. Yeah. This is how you know we're brothers. I think I owe like 15 guys from the league.

[Travis Kelsey]

Oh, a million. I think I still owe my Guy Hunter Henry 1. Man, I don't know how your jersey.

[Jason Kelsey]

Is after games when I tried to like sign the jersey after games.

[Travis Kelsey]

Soaking wet.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, it all runs and it bleeds like it never. Like it's a part of it. That's a part of it. Part of the magic of it.

[Travis Kelsey]

That's how you know it's another. That thing was worn and it was sweated on and it was. There was bloodshed.

[Jason Kelsey]

What do we think was the better post game gift to Leo, the jersey from you or a Little cheeseburger D.

[Travis Kelsey]

Treating him to a cheeseburger. Hell yeah. The entire cheese kingdom treats him to meals for the rest of his life. I bet you. I would. I would say. I would say the cheeseburger from Andy Reid is all times. Is an all time great gift.

[Jason Kelsey]

So I do want to say we're. We're pumping up the end of this game. And Leo, I do got to give the Broncos credit. I mean, they played.

[Travis Kelsey]

Are you kidding me, man? They're. And they've been good fucking sound.

[Jason Kelsey]

Their defense has been great all season long. They came off of a little bit of a rough one the week before, but they have been really.

[Travis Kelsey]

Their front seven flies around. They do a great job of mixing up blitzes and just throwing guys at you left and right and playing fast. Five. Five, dude. Their middle linebacker flies the around.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

40. Their backers are super athletic, very attuned.

[Jason Kelsey]

Very well coached, good instincts. Vance Joseph is.

[Travis Kelsey]

Told him afterwards, man, it's an honor going up against you, man, because I know it's one of the biggest challenges in the. In the league, man, and yeah, who would have thought one of the best defenses in the league got a white corner.

[Jason Kelsey]

There's an outside corner.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah. 21 starter. He hides it, though. He wears long sleeves. He hides it. He hide. Andy, I think he wears, like, the turtleneck. Too smart. He eyes.

[Jason Kelsey]

Don't let.

[Travis Kelsey]

Don't let him see the skin.

[Jason Kelsey]

Don't let him see which one's the white guy again. I can't tell.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's like camouflage.

[Jason Kelsey]

That's funny. Oh, man.

[Travis Kelsey]

No, man. Serious. And honestly, that kid, he can play. Everybody. Everybody over there, their safeties. I got covered by a linebacker for. For a play. I mean, they throw different looks at you and Coach Peyton.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, of course.

[Travis Kelsey]

Payton's got those guys motivated and playing great ball on the offensive side, too. Bo Nicks. Holy. That guy was ripping it.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, especially in the first half.

[Travis Kelsey]

Good football, man.

[Jason Kelsey]

Well, the Broncos we just talked about. The Broncos did hold you guys to three of four field goals in the red zone. They were very stingy down there for. In. In particular, but they did let up one, and that was to the big yeti himself. We talked about it a second ago, where you tied Tony Gonzalez for the most touchdowns in Chiefs franchise history. Let's see this clip. And this was a fourth down, like, ballsy kind of. It was early in the game, was it 3:14.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

What is this route called?

[Travis Kelsey]

It's called to just get the fuck open and get your eyes around because you're Wide ass open. This is the one time the Broncos got a little botched up. We had guys going, crossing, going left and right, a guy going vertical. And sometimes that just softens up the defense enough to. If the guy underneath just gets his eyes back, it's a touchdown.

[Jason Kelsey]

It's interesting to me is, like, so you guys are in this bunch formation, and a lot of times you'll see teams throw these, like, quick screens and do, like, these, like, little follows into the end zone with the guy and. But you guys do this. It's almost like a delayed follow where, like, they go out, they run their crossers, and you kind of act like you're going out and then come right back where you just were. Does that make sense at all? I don't know.

[Travis Kelsey]

No, I mean, you're right. And what it. What it does is it puts.

[Jason Kelsey]

Because they're all banjoing this. They're trying to figure out, who am I taking.

[Travis Kelsey]

They're. They're playing a defense that's very similar to what you would play in the field. And they box the bunch. They put five guys literally like a box. They put the corner high outside, the safety right over top, and he plays everything inside the corner, plays everything outside the underneath. Nickel or the will backer then plays the flat while the mics kind of sits in the inside and takes any short crossers. Well, this formation, we scored two touchdowns with D hop on the backside. So the mic flies left to try and take away the inside throw to D Hop.

[Jason Kelsey]

He's got to take the first crosser.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah. And then Justin Ross does a great job of taking off the top. And I mean, at that point, there's a lot of space underneath for me to work. And Pat was right on time.

[Jason Kelsey]

That outside defender, he's got to respect you run into the flat. So when you come and follow that guy who takes the inside defender, there's nobody left to take you. It's. I thought it was great. It was a great design. And.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah. And I'm no gray's wide ass open here, too. So it was literally picker poisoned by the pad right here.

[Jason Kelsey]

Either way, awesome play on fourth down, Chiefs defense still balling out. I mean, I know they kind of got let up a little bit early. They gave up some leakage late on that.

[Travis Kelsey]

16 points, 19 points. As an offense with. With a guy like Pat Mahomes back there, Coach Reed dialing up plays. We have the pieces to put up points, man. And it is getting a little frustrating, but she's. Kingdom, stick with us, baby. We're gonna start putting points up, and we're gonna do it. We're gonna do it in old Chiefs fashion. Yeah, we're. We're finding ways to win, which is always a good thing. And. And we're learning and we're growing and we're. We're. We're definitely, you know, rolling with the punches in terms of. In terms of, like, how teams are playing us, and we're growing with that. And I think that Coach Nagy, Coach Reed, Coach Heck, the offensive staff that's really creating these game plans, they're putting us in great positions to have success, but it takes all 11, man. It takes all 11. It takes the. The tight ends to be having their feet underneath them so that. So we score touchdowns instead of field goals. It takes, you know, everybody up front to be on the same page so that we're picking up blitzes. It takes everybody running their route to the. To the. The discipline that Coach Reed teaches it so that guys get open faster, and it's a clearer picture for Pat. You know, everybody's got to do their fucking job every single play. And. And I know I haven't done it. I got to make sure that as a leader on this team, I'm doing everything I can to help this team and to make this thing go.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah. Love it. LeBron stand of the game. No other team in NFL history has won nine straight games in which they trailed in the second half. Regular and postseason. You guys have trailed in all nine games. Is that what that status saying? That's not. That's not correct.

[Travis Kelsey]

This is true, Jason.

[Jason Kelsey]

You're saying you guys have trailed in all of your nine.

[Travis Kelsey]

Every fucking game.

[Jason Kelsey]

Wow.

[Travis Kelsey]

In the second half.

[Jason Kelsey]

That's. That's fucking mind blowing. Actually, that's not a LeBron side. That's pretty fucking.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's not where you want to be as an offense, Jason. And I know this, and it is. Like I said, it's frustrating. It is frustrating knowing that we're not scoring enough points right now. And it's what you go to work for, baby. You got enough pride. If you get it fixed, you're going to fucking get it fixed. And I got my mind set on that.

[Jason Kelsey]

Well, next week, you guys have an opportunity to get it fixed. You head back to Buffalo. How about this? To take on Bill's mafia.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

Last time you were in Buffalo, I was there, and it was a fun evening for everyone involved.

[Travis Kelsey]

Unless you're the pills.

[Jason Kelsey]

Correct. Unless you're Bill's mafia, in which case, not the best end of the season for those guys. But they are rolling right now. Bills are looking good.

[Travis Kelsey]

Josh Allen, he is playing fucking lights out right now.

[Jason Kelsey]

He's got his like, best touchdown interception ratio in the his whole career. Joe Brady, Joe Brady is really taking the offense to another level, it feels like.

[Travis Kelsey]

I think Josh has taken it up another level himself, I think. Yeah, I think he's doing an unbelievable job of taking care of the ball, mixing in when he's going to fucking be the bulldozer that he is, and then mixing up when he wants to run around. Guys, he's just, he's playing, he's playing great football. And you know, when you get a juggernaut like him on the offensive side, you gotta fucking put up points, man. So now more than ever, are we going to need to score touchdowns?

[Jason Kelsey]

Yes.

[Travis Kelsey]

And I'm gonna be locked in, locked in this week to try and make sure I. I'm accountable for my guys.

[Jason Kelsey]

Oh, can't wait to watch this one. I will not be shirtless this time around. I'll be watching this one from some comfortable area. But.

[Travis Kelsey]

All right now, 92 percenters, we're back for another week with our sponsor, Meta Quest. That's right, Meta Quest. We're halfway through the NFL season and you can feel like you're a part of the action by playing the VR football game NFL Pro Era on Meta Quest 3.

[Jason Kelsey]

NFL Pro Era is a VR football game that doesn't just let you take control of your favorite players, but actually gives you their view from inside the helmet. Plus, you get the chance to step under center as the quarterback of your favorite team for the Chiefs, maybe even the Eagles.

[Travis Kelsey]

You know it. You can also wreak havoc on defense from the linebacker position and try your best to shut down the Eagles tush push or even try to keep the Chiefs offense out of the end zone.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, good luck with that one.

[Travis Kelsey]

The Meta Quest three is also super light and comfortable. That's right. So you don't even have to put on an NFL helmet to see the field from a QB's point of view.

[Jason Kelsey]

Also, NFL Pro Era has a field where you can play online with up to seven friends at once. Just like the backyard football we used to play as kids.

[Travis Kelsey]

So if you want to explore the NFL Pro Era football verse and lead your team to glory, head to meta.comquest to check out NFL Pro Era and see everything else that's possible on Meta Quest.

Let's get to a little bit of Eagles recap. It was a fun one.

[Travis Kelsey]

Let's talk about a little bit of the birds out in la.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, baby.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, we'll talk about the birds and then get into your LA trip after this one. Eagles 34, Cowboys 6 Jason, initial thoughts on the game? The fucking blowout.

[Jason Kelsey]

I mean I mean, the initial thoughts are the. Dallas is just really bad right now. Yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

The Fighting Dallas is another. Eagles are playing great football. Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

I mean, listen, I know it's. You know, Dallas isn't good right now, but this is what you're supposed to do against bad teams. You know, you're supposed to beat them 34 to 6.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

Philadelphia has really settled into who they are. It seems like they've. They're playing much better. We've all known that. They've had the players to get it done. They have great talent on both sides of the ball. They're really starting to gel as units and play as a team. And I think that that's the thing that's been really fun to watch the last couple weeks. They're figuring out their identity on offense, and they're starting to really play to their strengths as a unit. And defensively, they've had a couple bad games, but outside of that, they've been good. They've been really good. And as of late, the defensive line has picked it up. They're playing fantastic. I mean, obviously everybody's criticizing the pass rush. When you play with a lead, the pass rush looks a lot better. You put them in third and long situations, keep them, stay ahead of the sticks. You're going to get good opportunities to rush the passer. And I think that the Eagles right now are playing very, very well. It also helps me get five turnovers.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, how about that? When the turnover battle, baby. The fucking win percentage skyrockets. Eagles now in first place in the NFC east with a fifth straight win. And Birds get their first win in Dallas since 2017, as Jason remembers. Quick stats from the game. Jalen went 14 of 20 for 202 yards and a tutty. He's just playing, so he has. He has the. The answers to the test, man. He's. He's. It seems like he's ahead of the curve, and I just. It's fun watching him ball out right now because he's just. He's flawless right now. His. His throws are right on point. Everything downfield seems to be in sync. A.J. brown had five catches for 109. A.J. brown's doing his goddamn thing as he always does. Forced five Cowboy turnovers, one interception of four fumbles. Guys are punching the ball. And the Eagles pulled starters early in the fourth quarter. How about that?

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, Jalen is playing really good right now. I mean, I know he's the thing that he's really done, but since the buy is. He's taking care of the Football. He's being very smart. I know he had the one interception to digs in the end zone where Diggs really sloughed off of his responsibility, made a good play, and then he had the fumble where. I don't know what you do. Michael Parsons came around on a text and was on top of him before he really had time to react. But, you know, he's. He's been very smart with the football, but also still taking chances. It's hard to navigate that. How do I be aggressive and allow my guys to go make plays like AJ Brown, but also do that in a way that is smart and we're not putting the ball at risk. And I think that he's been really good. It's clear that him and Kellen have really started to build a chemistry as to what this offense is now. You know, it looks like it has an identity.

[Travis Kelsey]

Hell, yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

They've turned into. They lean on Saquon, they allow. They run the football. They're doing the play actions. They're doing a little bit more under center stuff and. Which lends yourself to some different play actions than you can do from the gun. And they've. They've done some really good things the last three or four weeks. It's fun to watch right now. It's a lot of fun to watch.

[Travis Kelsey]

Hell yeah. Well, I don't get this next quote, but the biggest takeaways from the game, Jerry Jones is still at war with the sun.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah. There was a moment in the game. CD Lamb running across the end zone, had a chance to have a wide open touchdown and could not see the ball.

[Travis Kelsey]

I'm not going to lie. Playing in that stadium, I've fucking had that problem before. That. That fucking glare coming through that end zone in the afternoon is fucking ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. It's like the. It's like the glass makes it fucking like spread more, right? It's like the sun is bigger and brighter than it's ever been.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

And I. I mean, I get it, but obviously you try not to let those kind of things be an excuse, but holy man, that's. That. That. I mean, I get it. I understand where he's coming from. Here.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah. I mean, there's some pictures right here. I mean, it is crazy how aggressive that sun is at that time of the day coming through that window. You'd think they put up like shades or something, but a lot. Look at that. Dude.

[Travis Kelsey]

Why the. Is it that bright?

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah. You know, and the funny thing is I think somebody I saw somewhere and I don't know if this is true or not, but I saw it on the Internet, so I'm gonna assume it's true like everybody else does. Of course, I think they actually have shades because they do, like, concerts in there and singers have, like, said that they're. It bothers them, so they have shades there. They can, like. It's an option that they could legitimately just put the shades down and they.

[Travis Kelsey]

Just don't do it. Might have to ask somebody that. CD Lamb post game comments on the sun at ATT Stadium. I couldn't see the ball. I couldn't see the ball at all.

[Jason Kelsey]

The sun.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah. All right. Nice. Is he in favor of curtains? Probably 1000% he is. Did you talk to Jerry Jones about that, Lamb? I mean, y'all doing my job right now. All right. He'll hear it. He'll hear it.

[Jason Kelsey]

I think Jerry's going to get it. I'll be. There Might be shades next game.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah. I mean, knowing that maybe in the fourth quarter, you make the other team in an afternoon game have to deal with that in the. You know, I mean, have to look into the sun.

[Jason Kelsey]

So Jerry Jones was asked about the possibility of putting up curtains to block out the sun at AT&T Stadium. He said, well, let's tear the Dam Stadium down and build another one. Are you kidding me? I'm saying the world knows where the sun is. You get to know that almost a year in advance. Someone asked me about the sun. What about the sun? Where's the moon? I need to hear this.

[Travis Kelsey]

What the.

[Jason Kelsey]

Understand? What the fuck?

[Travis Kelsey]

Hey, man, listen.

[Jason Kelsey]

Are you kidding?

[Travis Kelsey]

You know where the sun is?

[Jason Kelsey]

Dude, the world knows where the sun is. Yeah. And so do architects.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

And people that build stadiums. And usually you try to avoid the fact that might be directly in your receiver's eyes.

[Travis Kelsey]

Dude, whatever it is you have, I mean, at Arrowhead, there. Is there a recording of this?

[Jason Kelsey]

I want to hear how Jerry says this. I can't repeat this. And there is the right inflection.

[Travis Kelsey]

There is 100% a time at Arrowhead Stadium where it's an afternoon game, and typically it has to be a noon game. You know, the. The sun's already kind of going down by 4 o'clock and getting underneath the stadium at this point in. In the year. But there is a time, if there is a noon game, that in the first and second quarter, maybe even peeking into the third quarter, that you're going to get that sun coming across the field. So it's like, if you have a hitch, like, it doesn't necessarily go downfield or like it. Like how this is coming through the end zone in Dallas. But don't catch it that way. Boy. That, like, you put the stadium so that.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, have it going across the stadium. Don't have it so that you're going to be looking right back at where the ball's going to be coming from 90% of the time.

[Travis Kelsey]

But it's going to look beautiful when the sun just glares through there in the afternoon. And it does look beautiful. I do love playing in. In Cowboy Stadium when that's happening. It makes it feel really cool until you miss football. Knowing that, I mean, we got to fucking block that thing out. I mean, have we played outfield before?

[Jason Kelsey]

I guess a Jerry's defense, you would think the Cowboys would know this is an issue and they could use it to their advantage, but I don't know.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah. Where's the moon?

[Jason Kelsey]

Where's the moon? The old moon got in the way. Coach said no one ever. They're gonna be like a solar eclipse one night. And, like, Jerry's gonna. I don't know. I think that this is one of those, like, Jerry isms where you gotta hear him saying it for it to make sense.

[Travis Kelsey]

Well, Jerry doubled down on his. His son theory Tuesday, saying AT&T Stadium was built as an indoor stadium with an outdoor feel. Okay.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yep.

[Travis Kelsey]

People appreciate that kind of stuff.

[Jason Kelsey]

They do. I do.

[Travis Kelsey]

Like, I don't want to adjust the stadium for one reason. It's an advantage for us.

[Jason Kelsey]

Okay.

[Travis Kelsey]

The stadium has been an advantage for the Cowboys. The team knows where the sun is during the game, and it won't change.

[Jason Kelsey]

He's got a point. The Cowboys have been very good at home. We had that stat up earlier. The Eagles haven't beaten them since 2017. And I think it's pretty apparent the Eagles have had better teams in the Cowboys, and we have struggled down there. It's a difficult place to play for a multiplicity of factors. I've never noticed the sun as much, but I'm also not catching that many balls. So maybe there's something there. I don't know. I do. That's my thing. It's like, it's. If you know where the sun's at, I mean, you can kind of, like, try and avoid that, I guess, or like, maybe aware. Like a tin advisor. I don't know.

[Travis Kelsey]

LeBron stat of the game. Jalen Hurts is the third player in NFL history with 75 passing touchdowns of 50 rushing touchdowns. So, yeah, that's LeBron stat.

[Jason Kelsey]

Not bad.

[Travis Kelsey]

That's both equally as impressive as it is pointless.

[Jason Kelsey]

So.

[Travis Kelsey]

Because nobody cares about being the third player. Everyone wants to be the one player.

[Jason Kelsey]

As we know, the Cowboys are struggling right now. They're in a free fall. I'll actually be in Dallas Monday night and I'll get to see this sun. This sun, moon stuff firsthand to be able to offer my perspective potentially afterwards.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, I don't think Jason can catch a. Can catch an over route in the sun.

[Jason Kelsey]

That's a good idea. That's a great idea.

[Travis Kelsey]

That's.

[Jason Kelsey]

It's not a.

[Travis Kelsey]

You'll have to do this before.

[Jason Kelsey]

I'll have to do it before.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

I think Ryan and Swag usually go on NFL Live a couple like three hours before the game, so that it should be right around that time.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah. Let's go in there and try and get across. Pre record it. Let's pre record it. Let's pick out the exact time that this play happened and see if Jason can run full speed and catch a pass. Right.

[Jason Kelsey]

I'm going to come back the next week with a broken nose.

[Travis Kelsey]

I know. Crush me like Marsha. Brad Brady.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

Next week the Eagles are taking on the Commanders on Thursday Night Football. That's right. We got a good one, baby. Little divisional game. Probably the biggest game in the division. Those two teams are playing very fucking well.

[Jason Kelsey]

This is huge.

[Travis Kelsey]

Last time both teams had records more than one game above.500 entering the game was November 26, 2000. Wow. How about that? 2000. Damn.

[Jason Kelsey]

Been a while.

[Travis Kelsey]

Who is on those 2000 teams?

[Jason Kelsey]

2000 would have been Donovan. I don't know who would have been on Washington. I mean, Clinton, Portis, maybe. That's actually. That's a while ago.

[Travis Kelsey]

Brad Johnson.

[Jason Kelsey]

Wow.

[Travis Kelsey]

How about that trick shot, Brad? He's all. He's all over the Internet doing trick shots. Shout out to Brad Johnson, man.

[Jason Kelsey]

Heck yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

All right, let's keep this thing moving and get out of the house because Jason was loose as a goose over there on the west coast, baby.

[Jason Kelsey]

All righty. Out of the house. That's right. Out of the House is brought to you by Coke Zero Sugar. Tackle game day with the irresistible taste of Coke Zero Sugar. Is it the best Coke ever? Try it and decide.

[Travis Kelsey]

Jason stopped by Eagles bar in LA like he said, to watch the birds. How was it, Jason?

[Jason Kelsey]

It was awesome. We were staying in Santa Monica for the game, so we kind of hit up the local spots there. I think Garage might have been a little bit outside of that, but we ended up going to Britannia and the Garage Motor Club, I think is the full name of the bar.

[Travis Kelsey]

Nice.

[Jason Kelsey]

The whole weekend though, was fun. It was a great time having a.

[Travis Kelsey]

Garage beer in there, a lot of food.

[Jason Kelsey]

They did not have any garage beer. We're still trying to get over there on the West Coast.

[Travis Kelsey]

We got to get over there to the West Coast.

[Jason Kelsey]

I talked to the guys about it. We're in the process. We're still working that out.

[Travis Kelsey]

How was the LA Eagles fans compared to the natives back in Philly?

[Jason Kelsey]

Obviously they get to celebrate their Philadelphia fandom. Being together at these bars while, you know, Eagles games are happening or Sixers or all this stuff. So it's a fun moment for everybody to get together. You're not around it constantly like you are in Philadelphia. So I think, you know, you could tell that this is much more of an event and a production for all the local guys and girls that live out that way.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

So it was cool. It was really awesome to be out there. I was trying to make it more of just like a papa and show up, like not be like a whole production. But it turned into a whole production, but it was still fun. Everybody was super nice. The energy was crazy. Obviously they were beating the crap out of Dallas, which leads to good energy from Eagles fans.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

But yeah, it was a great time. Met a lot of really good people, have some stories and enjoyed it.

[Travis Kelsey]

Love it. Did you run into more Eagles fans or Rams fans out there?

[Jason Kelsey]

I honestly, I'm probably saying Eagles fans.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, I mean, they're everywhere.

[Jason Kelsey]

LA's weird. LA is such a transplant city that there's really fans from all over the country there. Like even the bar that I was saying, even before we went to the two Eagles bars, all the coast, all.

[Travis Kelsey]

The coasts have that though. And I think, no doubt, I think LA and New York do have that die hard fan base. It's harder in football because they haven't had that one team be there for the entire, like the entire left.

[Jason Kelsey]

And they came back.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, like the Rams left and came back. The Raiders have been in and out. The Chargers now are there. So it's like the, the, the fans kind of, I know, latch onto whoever's good at the time because it's fun to watch and it's tough and I'm sure it's been hard on a lot of the fan bases or the, a lot of the die hard football fans to just fully commit to a team when the ownership fucking yanks them out of there every 10 to 15 years.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah. I'll also say I went to two Eagles bars. So obviously I saw a ton of Eagles fans. Like there was at the Rams game. There were tons of Rams fans in the state.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, Ram's house, baby. They definitely get it rocking for sure.

[Jason Kelsey]

But the big Dean's bar down there, the Giants bar, like there's, there's people from all over the country in la and that was one of the cool things is like there's just. It's a melting pot, right? You're seeing people from all over the country, all over the world.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's the land opportunity. There's a lot of business that brings people together out there.

[Jason Kelsey]

It was fun. I enjoyed my time there greatly. Had a lot of great food.

[Travis Kelsey]

Jason, you got into a push up contest.

[Jason Kelsey]

I did.

[Travis Kelsey]

Rocking the gold gym tank that you, that you got hits were out, out at the, at Rams house. And I'm not. I was impressed, man.

[Jason Kelsey]

54. I'm not gonna lie. I did not think I was gonna get 54.

[Travis Kelsey]

I am very happy with this. There's no way my shoulders would snap. My shoulders would snap. You started. I mean, I would have. You did better than me. I would have, I would have went to knee way before this. You fought through and you dug deep and you could tell you're grinding them out.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah. And I, and I got my ass kicked by a bunch of Navy Seals who are much better at push ups and a lot of things than I am. But this was awesome to be out there on Veterans Day with a bunch of guys that had served for this country for a number of years and to have some fun like this. It was a really, really cool experience and just an awesome way to, you know, pay tribute. The whole evening was paying tribute to people in our military and armed services. And it's awesome.

[Travis Kelsey]

I think it's one of the best things the league does.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, the, the Saloo Salute to Service week is always like.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's the entire month of November. It just, it changes depending on what teams have home games and when they specifically have their salute to service game and stuff. But yeah, it's the reason why I wear the, the army fatigue green gloves throughout the week. And I typically try and get at least one pair to, to somebody in, in uniform or afterwards find somebody that served or is serving now. So it's, it's awesome. And we always pay our respects to those that are, that are serving this beautiful country. And we appreciate you guys forever for it, man.

[Jason Kelsey]

Absolutely.

[Travis Kelsey]

What was the guy in the black doing?

[Jason Kelsey]

Dude, I don't know what this dude served. Like how many. I forget What? How many years Seth was in?

[Travis Kelsey]

Dude, he's doing like the worm military.

[Jason Kelsey]

I have no idea. If he's got bad hips, bad shoulders.

[Travis Kelsey]

Maybe that's a technique.

[Jason Kelsey]

All I know is doing 93 of whatever the fuck he's doing. I couldn't have done 93 of it. That's all I know.

[Travis Kelsey]

It ain't cheating. It ain't. Yeah, whatever it is he's doing them.

[Jason Kelsey]

93 is still a lot in one minute and he killed it, so I'm happy for him.

[Travis Kelsey]

All right. Anything else you want to mention this trip?

[Jason Kelsey]

No, it was just fun, you know, Went to a lot of local spots, like I said. Had a bunch of great food. What's this burger? I don't know, man. We. We. It was a fun. It was a very, very fun weekend in la. Ran into Brandon one of the nights, which is always good. Did not see Jets Jake. He did not make the time for me, unfortunately. Yeah, had a. Had a good time.

[Travis Kelsey]

Jets Jake is.

[Jason Kelsey]

It's too busy. He's on social all the time. He doesn't leave the house except to walk his dog.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's a tough life for Jets Jake right now.

[Jason Kelsey]

He's also in depression with. That's happening with the jets right now.

[Travis Kelsey]

It's tough. It's. It's tough.

[Jason Kelsey]

We're actually going to have a video going up on some out of the house stuff, so we'll see how that turns out.

[Travis Kelsey]

Nice. Jason, I'm just so proud of you for.

[Jason Kelsey]

Of what, Travis?

[Travis Kelsey]

For getting out of the house. You're such a home body, dude. It was a fucking thriving right now. You're glowing. Look at you.

[Jason Kelsey]

I love meeting people. That's what I like, being out of the house.

[Travis Kelsey]

I don't. I. This is the first time I've ever heard of that.

[Jason Kelsey]

No, I've always liked the people part. It's the walking and moving part that I don't like as much.

[Travis Kelsey]

All right, yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

That does it for out of the House. Brought to you by Coke Zero Sugar.

[Travis Kelsey]

Let's keep this thing moving to what else is going on in the NFL. Like Jared Goff bringing the bun stats back. That's right. An incredible bun station in the Lions win over Houston. Became the third quarterback in the last 30 years to win a game while throwing five interceptions.

[Jason Kelsey]

How crazy is that?

[Travis Kelsey]

As a fellow bun stats representative, Jared, I am proud of you for finding a way to fucking win.

[Jason Kelsey]

That's right.

[Travis Kelsey]

God damn it. It is hard in the NFL.

[Jason Kelsey]

Shout out to Jake. What is it? Jake Bates. Two big field goals. At the end.

[Travis Kelsey]

Oh, yeah, yeah. The actual. Yeah, the actual game. Game. That was a fun game. That was a fun game to watch. We were all watching it after hanging out, watching that game, and we were screaming, we want six, we want six. And we weren't talking about touchdowns. We wanted to see that guy throw the six interception and still find a way to win. We wanted that, that button stat to be way more epic than it already was. Shout out to golf and the Lions, though, man, those guys are playing hard. They got a big one this week, too.

[Jason Kelsey]

Did you hear Dan Campbell speak into existence? The interception coming out of half? He's talking to the reporter. You know, they do like the little on field stuff. And the half starts, right. Houston's starting with the ball. First play of the second half. And Campbell said, we just. We just got to keep our head down, get a couple of things go our way, get a couple turnovers. And as soon as he says it, interception for the Lions.

[Travis Kelsey]

Nice.

[Jason Kelsey]

Talk about speaking it into existence.

[Travis Kelsey]

Fighting Dan Campbell's baby.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, baby.

[Travis Kelsey]

International games. We had the final international game in Germany between the Panthers and the Giants. An absolute barn burner of the two and seven teams after Goodell said the league is looking to play upwards of eight games outside of the United States in 2025, including Ireland. Oh, NFL has also announced they will play again. Yeah, that sounds super fun, dude.

[Jason Kelsey]

I am in on all a little Dublin.

[Travis Kelsey]

Where do you think it is? You think it's. It's got to be Dublin.

[Jason Kelsey]

It's going to be Dublin.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, it's got to be Dublin.

[Jason Kelsey]

Get a little Guinness factory in.

[Travis Kelsey]

NFL has already announced that it will play a game in the renovated stadium in Madrid. Yeah. That will return to the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City for the first time since 2022 when we played. And you love that, right?

[Jason Kelsey]

It's. It was a nice mile. Locker room.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah. It was sweet, though. It was fun. Yeah, it was.

[Jason Kelsey]

How long the walk was from the locker room to the field?

[Travis Kelsey]

It was. It wasn't going down the ramp. It was coming up from half and you're just like, why the fuck didn't we just stay on the field? Yeah, but Mexico City was an awesome, awesome place to play. The Azteca was so fucking lit. And there's a lot of history in that place.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

And it makes you. It makes you feel like you're. You're in a bunch of just like a crazed environment for fucking competition. I love that shit.

[Jason Kelsey]

That's awesome.

[Travis Kelsey]

And the league is expected to be back in Brazil in Germany in 2025. So is this too much? Is this too much flying? That's what I'm saying, man. Send me to the moon.

[Jason Kelsey]

I don't play anymore.

[Travis Kelsey]

Like, send me to the moon.

[Jason Kelsey]

For me, it's just a reason to go to a fun place to watch a football game. Like, are they traveling too much or going to Dublin, Ireland? Like, not if I get to go to Dublin, Ireland. I'm all on board with this.

[Travis Kelsey]

Well, this is what you did when I played in London last. Yeah, you came out and then you went over to Ireland.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, it was. It was our bye week and I went out and you guys are playing what, Detroit.

[Travis Kelsey]

Detroit. Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

Found a way to get a dove. My guy, Alex Smith had a great game.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, I am all in. I'm all in on all these international games. As long as most of the Eagles games are still in Philadelphia, I'm all in on all the international games.

[Travis Kelsey]

I love it. I love the international games. Maybe get one over in Australia, though. Let's go the other way.

[Jason Kelsey]

They've been talking about that for a while. I want us curious that he didn't mention Australia.

[Travis Kelsey]

We've been going east. Let's go west.

[Jason Kelsey]

I think you can go either way. You can go either east or west. You'll run into it.

[Travis Kelsey]

I think the Aussies would get so rowdy playing one of those rugby stadiums.

[Jason Kelsey]

Or one of those Australian football stadiums.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah, those things get rocking. So I can only imagine.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, New Zealand is a different country, but it is.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

That's kind of the same, though.

[Travis Kelsey]

I said Australia. Or New Zealand.

[Jason Kelsey]

Or New Zealand. Okay. Okay. All right. My bad.

[Travis Kelsey]

How do you thought. I'm sorry, my dude.

[Jason Kelsey]

I mean, I used to think it was the same thing. It's pretty much the same.

[Travis Kelsey]

All right, my dude.

[Jason Kelsey]

Moving on to Steelers against the Commanders, obviously, we just talked about the Eagles have a tough matchup against the Commanders this week. The Commanders lost to the Steelers this past week in a very close game that came off to a offsides jump.

[Travis Kelsey]

Came down to it. Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

Watch this clip. They come up fourth and one. I mean, you know they're not going to run a play at the 50 yard line because if they don't get it, you're basically guaranteeing a field goal.

[Travis Kelsey]

I mean, you don't know that.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah, I mean, we're definitely running a play, but you know, they're. That the chance of them running a heart you can't jump off. You kind of know that there's a chance you're going to do this hard Count.

[Travis Kelsey]

That's tough. Gosh, that's tough.

[Jason Kelsey]

My man Isaac Sayamalu signaling first down. Russ is happy. He's doing.

[Travis Kelsey]

How can you not be, man?

[Jason Kelsey]

He's doing the.

[Travis Kelsey]

He's just Mr.

[Jason Kelsey]

Unlimited Dance.

[Travis Kelsey]

I think that was actually the put that on dance.

[Jason Kelsey]

Oh, okay.

[Travis Kelsey]

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin on getting the commanders to jump off sides on a clutch fourth down. The reporter. I assume you were not gonna go for it there on fourth down. Mike Tomlin. We'll never know, will we? You know, I am a degenerate. I am a degenerate. God damn, that's good.

[Jason Kelsey]

How about that?

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah. Just got to keep them on their toast. You never know. Hey, Travis, which way were you supposed to go on this? We'll never know.

[Jason Kelsey]

I think the more I think about it, you probably do go for it on 4th and 1 there, because there's a lot of time left, and if you get it, the game's over. How confident do you feel? Yeah, we'll never know what Mike was going to do, that's for sure.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

Is it hard not to false start? No, it is not hard. I'm assuming. So this is what happens when some of the producers read the questions, guys. They said, is it hard to not false start? I don't know. Is it hard to not false start for the offense? No, it's. It's. If it is the play that they're talking about where they're not going to run a play is incredibly easy not to fall start. You're actually incredibly dumb if you do false start because there's no play. That being said, I have false started not knowing what the play was before. Never in a game, but in practice, when you rep this one time, I was like, oh. Doug's like, what are you doing, man? There's no play. And I'm like, yeah, I don't know why that just happened. I'm stupid for that.

[Travis Kelsey]

And Doug was a good case, Coach. It's a good case.

[Jason Kelsey]

I was like, I'm really dumb for that.

[Travis Kelsey]

Doug was like, we do that, they're gonna jump.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

I was just letting you know I wasn't locked in. And if we catch them not locked in, that's what's gonna happen.

[Jason Kelsey]

I think that the more applicable question is it hard to not jump as a defensive player and probably not. I mean, typically, everybody's reminding each other on both sides in this situation.

[Travis Kelsey]

I mean, you would hope so. Maybe the. Maybe the commanders didn't.

[Jason Kelsey]

Didn't signal it in, like, typically, like, any situation like that. You're typically selling them djo or like, dude, do not jump on the snap. Like, it is okay to be a titch off of it, but maybe not. Maybe they just went all in. I don't know. Does the defense know you're not running a play? I mean, they might have had. That's the thing about this. They can go with a hard count and try and jump them off sides, but also have a play designed after that. But I still got to think that they were probably not going to run a play there. They still had a couple timeouts, so they probably were going to try and draw them off sides, then take the time out and decide whether they were going to either punt or go for.

[Travis Kelsey]

It or just fucking do a QB sneak right there.

[Jason Kelsey]

They're not doing a qbc. You know how I know that?

[Travis Kelsey]

Nope.

[Jason Kelsey]

The quarterback's feet. The quarterback, when they do quarterback sneaks, gets a foot behind him. He's got even feet. He's not running. Quarterback sneak right there. He could change him up, though, on the second cadence, I guess, I suppose.

[Travis Kelsey]

There you go. Poop gate. Lions linebacker James Houston went viral this week after allegedly shitting his pants on the field.

[Jason Kelsey]

This is. This is rough. This is why I hate white pants. One of the reasons I hate white pants. I would like to say that I have not ever done this, and luckily, I haven't been out there during a game and done this before. But listen, sometimes, you know, you're exerting a lot of effort on the field, and if you get caught in the wrong type of gut situation.

[Travis Kelsey]

Ah, dude, what do you mean, if? He said it right here. Hey, y'all, I sat on some Gatorade.

[Jason Kelsey]

Come on, dude. Travis. Travis. You and I both know he ain't sit on no Gatorade. Not in that exact specific spot. We all know what that is, and he has nothing to be ashamed of. I am here to have your back, Jazz. I have done this, dude. I. I did this before a game once, and I felt, you know, like when you. When you. When you shart and you know that there's a possibility something just came up, but you're not certain, and I turned.

[Travis Kelsey]

You got to get off the field.

[Jason Kelsey]

I turned, and I'm not going to announce names. I turned to my buddy, my old line friend, and I was like, hey, can you check me? Because I think I might have just. And he checks me. He says, you're good. I go out for warm ups, do the whole warmups. Lane comes up to me after warm ups. He's like, hey, you got shit all up and down your pants right now. So in between warmups in the start.

[Travis Kelsey]

Of the game, I should seep through.

[Jason Kelsey]

I keep my shoulder pads on. Take off all of my under, like.

[Travis Kelsey]

All my lower half, all of it.

[Jason Kelsey]

Get in the shower and showering.

[Travis Kelsey]

Oh, that's funny as fuck. You felt that nasty, Dude, I was.

[Jason Kelsey]

It was disgusting.

[Travis Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

But, yeah, this is not the first time it's happened. I know many players that this happened to. It could potentially be Gatorade. I think it's probably highly likely it was a shark that went awry because it's just this white pants, man. It's risky. It's a risky situation. You got to.

[Travis Kelsey]

You got to eat right. You got to take your vitamins. Make sure that gut health is right. All right, I'm done talking about shitting yourself. All right, coach. Quote of the week comes from Saints.

[Jason Kelsey]

Interim, interim, interim head coach got a win. Saints big win.

[Travis Kelsey]

Darren Rizzi. After the win against the Falcons, I'm pretty open guy. I go to the bathroom. This is how my day started. I clogged a toilet. I'm like, this is going to be a crappy day. Pun intended. Guy got fired up. He clogged the toilet.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah. I mean, listen, he's an open guy. He's an open book. Not afraid to admit anything. Yeah, it's just another list in a category.

[Travis Kelsey]

Sounds like he was patting himself on the back there.

[Jason Kelsey]

It's like he's letting him know, hey, I'm a man. I take big shits.

[Travis Kelsey]

I don't need no modium. I'm a fucking clogged this shit up. You better ask some good pipes.

[Jason Kelsey]

Oh, my gosh. Yeah. What is it about interim coaches, man? It feels like they always win their first game. It's like routine.

[Travis Kelsey]

I think it's a mixture of teams motivated to play harder. You know, I think everybody. Nobody wants to see anybody get fired, but at the same time, everybody wants to kind of be there for whoever's job it is to step in, you know, it's not an easy thing to do. And I think sometimes that can kind of circle the bandwagons for teams. On top of that, you know, you see one. One guy get fired, you see the head man get fired at that. Everybody's on notice, no doubt. Everyone's, you know, a little bit more dialed in, a little bit more locked in, and who knows what else. The. What other motivating factors were going on in the building or who they got back or things like that, but maybe even a Switch up a scheme a little bit more unknown on what the the play calls are going to be. Yeah, all that plays into part for sure. And that does it for bold topics. Moving on to no Dumb Questions because it's no, it's. There's no such thing as dumb questions. Just dumbass people answering some dumb questions.

[Jason Kelsey]

Hey, wait.

[Travis Kelsey]

What no Dumb Questions is brought to you by our friends at Burger King. Man, that Whopper was so good. It was pretty damn good, I'm not gonna lie. And that sesame bunch. Yeah, it's got my mouth watering right now. I'm kind of hungry myself.

[Jason Kelsey]

I might go get a burger for. For dinner. Now a little Burger King Whopper. First, no dumb question. How hard is it really to make o line position to move overline positions like when a right guard moves the left guard? Sometimes announcers act like it's no big deal, but sometimes they act like it's the most impressive thing an NFL player can do. I imagine it's like driving on the other side of the road. I would say it's a little bit harder than driving on the other side of the road. Some players are very good and natural at switching sides and are ambidextrous. It's probably, it's more similar to probably switch hitting on like a. In baseball. But hitting a baseball is just way harder. What it really comes down to is you're. You're using your feet in a different stance and stagger than you do on the other side of the ball. And you maybe more importantly your hands have to be used differently. Like your inside hand placement is obviously with a different hand. And that, that has a lot to do with how you pass said and your relationship with the defender. So I would say it is definitely hard, but some guys are make it, are very good at it and it's not difficult at all. They can go back and forth. A lot of it is player specific. Some guys are awful when you try and have them play another side, they just can't figure it out quickly. And some guys can switch over like it's nothing. And that's one of the reasons why backup guys that can play both sides and move and play either left or right betweeners. It's, it's a valuable thing to have.

[Travis Kelsey]

We had a few of those guys. Yeah.

[Jason Kelsey]

This always reminds me when I'm talking about this to the Pro bowl back when you actually used to play the game. The biggest issue all week was always that all of the Pro bowl tackles that made it were always left tackles, left tackles, and somebody had to go play right. And nobody wanted to play right. Because it's. It was a different. Like your right legs back instead of your left. You're using your hands different. They all didn't want to play it. And it would devolve into the youngest guy with the least Pro bowls always had to play right. And he would be getting his ass kicked every game. And we'd have to slide it over to him because that was the only problem with the pass rush. So it's definitely a thing. It's definitely hard. But for some guys, it's easier than others.

[Travis Kelsey]

I would assume that it's like driving on the other side of the road.

[Jason Kelsey]

All right, there we. And then at Vite's version, if you could pick one article of clothing to wear for the rest of your life, what would it be? Interesting.

[Travis Kelsey]

That's a tough question. Where am I at in the world?

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah. And what is like. Does this mean if I pick a shirt, I can't wear pants? I'm assuming this is, like, what outfit? Or do I have to wear, like, suspenders Because I got to get, like, top and bottom, like, cover.

[Travis Kelsey]

Again, this is. There's not enough this question.

[Jason Kelsey]

Let's go. Let's assume it's outfit. Let's say. Let's say you get shoes, a lower half and an upper half.

[Travis Kelsey]

That's what you get Again, where am I at?

[Jason Kelsey]

Well, this is what. This is the whole point. You don't know. You only get to choose. It has to be ready to adapt to any place that you might be.

[Travis Kelsey]

All right, well, then I'll go. I'll go hoodie and sweatpants and some Jordans.

[Jason Kelsey]

Hoodies.

[Travis Kelsey]

Jordans. Jordans. I can. I can do. Actually, not Jordans. I gotta go. Like, combat boots.

[Jason Kelsey]

I was about to say you can't go Jordans.

[Travis Kelsey]

You can't go Jordans. Combat boots.

[Jason Kelsey]

Combat boots.

[Travis Kelsey]

All purpose.

[Jason Kelsey]

And that's why they're combat boots. They got to be ready for everything.

[Travis Kelsey]

If it starts to get really hot, roll those things. Roll those up. Shorten those sleeves up. Maybe tuck the. Get rid of the hoodie. Yeah, put it in your. Are you allowed to take it off pouch? Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You just cut the hoodie. Put it in your. In your sweatshirt pouch, though.

[Jason Kelsey]

Well, if you cut it, then it's ruined forever.

[Travis Kelsey]

No, then you put it in your pouch, and when you need it again, you just put it right on.

[Jason Kelsey]

So it's a zippered hoodie? No, one of those zipper ones where.

[Travis Kelsey]

The hoodie just Tuck it underneath the. You can find a way.

[Jason Kelsey]

I would go wool clothing because it's antimicrobial, so I don't have to worry about it getting as dirty as cotton or synthetic materials.

[Travis Kelsey]

Okay.

[Jason Kelsey]

A decent medium thickness wool so that I'm pretty warm most of the time and I'm trying to stay out of cold climates. I would go with a decent medium wool sweat because it's breathable, so that when it's hot out, you still get some breathability. And when it's cold out, it still retains some insulate and so insulatory properties. And then I would go wool socks and I would go hiking boots so that you're kind of good to do whatever you want them.

[Travis Kelsey]

You are going to be one smelly. Because wool, everything is going to be hot as.

[Jason Kelsey]

No, no, it breathes. It breathes. Wool is a known breathable, breathable.

[Travis Kelsey]

Jason.

[Jason Kelsey]

Yeah.

[Travis Kelsey]

You wear wool in 80 degree weather, you are sweating your ass off.

[Jason Kelsey]

Well, just roll the pant legs up.

[Travis Kelsey]

Up. You're still gonna steer. Shit's on your back and your chest. If it's on your shoulders, you're gonna start to sweat.

[Jason Kelsey]

What did you say you were going for?

[Travis Kelsey]

Pants, Sweatpants. I'm just going sweatpants.

[Jason Kelsey]

How is that? You don't think that's going to be hot and 80 degrees?

[Travis Kelsey]

No, not roll it up. Not if I roll it up.

[Jason Kelsey]

But if you got the wool, the wool breeze better than cotton. Are you going cotton sweatpants?

[Travis Kelsey]

No. What are you going going? You're going like.

[Jason Kelsey]

All right.

[Travis Kelsey]

That does it for no dumbass questions. I'm sick of these dumbass questions. You guys come up with some really good dumb questions because I'm. Or not. Not. Dumb questions, please. I'm. I'm starting to get kind of pumped. That does it for no Dumb Questions brought to you by Burger King.
