Episode 54: "Kylie on Her 'Feral' College Era, Beef with Dwyane Wade & 'Playing Tinder' In The Dorms"

Date: February 12, 2026
Host: Kylie Kelce
Guests: Amber & Gab (Kylie's college best friends)

Episode Overview

This hilarious and raw Galentine’s Day special dives deep into Kylie Kelce’s college shenanigans, her early days with Jason Kelce, chaotic bridesmaid adventures, and the legendary group chat lore that’s stitched their friendship together. With her best friends Amber and Gab joining as guests, Kylie opens up about everything from playing “Tinder” in dorm rooms to memorable wedding moments and her unexpected grudge against Dwyane Wade. Equal parts roast and love letter to girlhood, it’s a candid, unfiltered ride through friendship, nostalgia, and some very questionable college choices.

Key Discussion Points & Highlights

1. Galentine’s Day Vibes & Friendship Origins

Timestamp: 00:00–06:40

• Kylie explains Galentine’s Day (inspired by Leslie Knope of "Parks and Rec") is about celebrating girlhood and friendship the day before Valentine’s.
• Kylie’s Galentines? Her four daughters, plus Amber and Gab—her “real ones” from college and beyond.
• The trio reminisce about meeting at Cabrini College field hockey preseason and bonding over food runs to Wawa.

“We just jumped right in [the car]... very food motivated, easy to kidnap people.” —Gab (06:16)

2. “Can I Be Honest?”: College Kylie Exposed

Timestamp: 05:57–19:23

• Describing College Kylie: “Easily convinced,” “down for anything,” and (as Kylie offers) “dumbass.”
• Partying Modes: Kylie alternated between “responsible Uber” and wild, “feral” party animal during field hockey conference weekends.
  • Memorable incidents: Kylie nearly eating Wawa mac and cheese from the floor, being gifted a “handle of Grey Goose” that she convinced people to drink “at room temperature.”
• Group Tinders: The trio co-swipe on Tinder in the dorms, even riffing off each other’s lines to the same matches. The legendary swipe that led to Jason Kelce? Witnessed by at least one roommate.
• First Date Reactions: Disappointment when Jason fell asleep at the table, but growing affection as unique antics unfolded (like him sending a bear for Valentine’s).
• Viral Moments: River dancing on St. Patrick's, the infamous “Princess Kyana” jacket, throwing a shoe at Jason on a podcast, and the Cheetos at the Super Bowl.
• On popularity: Kylie downplays her coolness, but Gab insists, “You were pretty popular, I’d say.” (16:32)
• Favorite Prank: Smuggling a traffic cone all over campus, prank phone calls as “Susie Jammers,” and “acquiring” campus flags (with a nudge and a wink at campus security).

3. Bride Kylie: The Truth Comes Out

Timestamp: 27:51–38:39

• Asking Bridesmaids: Through a “box” with tangible keepsakes (mugs, photos) but, as Gab jokes, “Didn’t really have any other friends.”
• Bachelorette Party: A “bucket of wine,” nail spa day, and “low key” daytime event. Jason chauffeured them around Philly.
• Wedding Planning Style: “Solo maintenance.” Gab teases, “Is it gonna happen?... There was a lot of side texting of like, do you think she’s actually done anything?”
• Groomsmen Antics: Jason had just Travis; no matching, no fuss—bridesmaids walk down the aisle alone.
• Wedding Day: Kylie was “calm” (except for a Spanx adjustment and removing a belly button ring); most concerned with looking “natural.”
• Legendary Wedding Moment: Aunt Judy’s viral “Just shut the up. Oh, yeah. We don’t care!” during the ceremony (37:40)

4. Doom Scroll of the Week: Galentine’s Edition

Timestamp: 22:55–27:08

• TikTok Trends: Over-the-top Galentine’s charcuterie boards (that they’d never pull off), a “boob job reveal party,” and a tiny fan disappointed she didn’t have a “Kylie Kelce Golden Book.”
• Running Joke: If Kylie ever gets a boob job, only Gab and Amber will get the brutally honest first look:

  “If I did it fresh out of surgery, Burr would be like, ‘I don’t know why they’re at your neck… let’s fix that real quick.’”—Kylie & Amber (25:06)

• Childhood Manipulation: Amber pitches a field hockey kids’ book—“This feels manipulative and I like it,” Kylie laughs. (27:08)

5. Flip Cup, Truth or Flip, and Ultimate Roast

Timestamp: 42:35–56:14

• Special NGL “Truth or Flip” (Flip Cup with Olipop instead of beer): Losers must dress up in “full-on beauty pageant attire.”
• Rapid-fire questions yield:
  • Kylie responds to texts “three to six months at times.” (46:17)
  • Messiest dorm room? “I live my life in piles.” (52:59)
  • Secret obsession: Transformers, including a “voice-changing Optimus Prime mask.” (52:23)
• The girls roast and toast Kylie:

  “It’s like being friends with Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego… I’ll be scrolling on Twitter and it’s like, ‘Oh, she’s at Milan Fashion Week with Tom Cruise, then she met the Royal Family.’” —Gab (50:23)

• Kylie’s “grudge” against Dwyane Wade:
  • Accuses the NBA star of “not saying a goddamn word” when stuck in a wedding elevator with Kylie, in her dress, and the bridesmaids (32:06).

  “There is a bride and her bridesmaids in the fucking elevator with you… and then you didn’t say a word.” —Kylie

6. Reflections on Friendship & “Has Fame Changed Kylie?”

Timestamp: 49:09–54:46

• Amber and Gab agree: fame hasn’t changed Kylie—other than making her busier and tougher to get on the phone.
• “You genuinely care, like to invest time in your friends and genuinely care about what goes on in our lives, whether it’s minuscule or big.” —Amber (51:31)
• The heart of it: A lot of group chat wisdom, honest feedback (sometimes “abrasive”, often caring), and laughter through even the wildest memories.
