  The wrongs we must right, the fights we must win, the future we must secure together for our nation. This is what's in front of us. This determines what's next for all of us. We are Marines. We were made for this.

• 0:20Travis Kelce?

  Thank you to our sponsor, Colgate Total.

• 0:23Speaker 02

  On offense, it's important to prevent problems from the moment the ball is snapped.

• 0:28Travis Kelce?

  That's true. Otherwise, you're just out there running cardio. Can't get open for a big play.

• 0:34Speaker 02

  But it's not just football. There's a lot of things you need to prevent before they start.

• 0:39Travis Kelce?

  Yeah, like in your mouth.

• 0:41Speaker 02

  My mouth specifically?

• 0:42Travis Kelce?

  I mean, probably yours too, but I'm talking everybody's mouth. There's bacteria in there that can lead to oral health problems like cavities, gingivitis.

• 0:54Speaker 02

  Right. Yeah. All the nasty stuff. But the good news is you can prevent these problems before they start with Colgate Total Active Prevention. It's like having a good offensive line for your mouth.

• 1:05Travis Kelce?

  Ooh, exactly. With twice daily brushing, Colgate Total prevents oral health problems like cavities and gingivitis.

• 1:12Speaker 02

  And it's not just one contributing player either. It's a whole system. Toothpaste, mouthwash, and a special toothbrush.

• 1:20Travis Kelce?

  Now that's the squad you want fighting for your mouth.

• 1:23Speaker 02

  Colgate Total is like having a full playbook in your bathroom, working to help prevent oral health problems before they start.

• 1:34Speaker 02

  We have a voicemail. Dumbest question ever asked. We will be the determiners of that. Go ahead, Brandon, please.

• 1:38Travis Kelce?

  They tried to sell me on West Virginia one time. Not gonna lie, it was a beautiful landscape.

• 1:43Speaker 02

  Was it thalassophobia or something like that? There's some type of fear that I definitely have when it comes to water.

• 1:48Travis Kelce?

  Do you know Ohio's current slogan?

• 1:50Speaker 02

  It's high in the middle and round on the outside.

• 1:53Travis Kelce?

  If you're going to a rave, grab the Buzz Lightyear Brown 13s.

• 1:57Speaker 02

  I found myself listening to more and more Randy Newman.

• 1:59Travis Kelce?

  That's another Toy Story reference right there.

• 2:01Speaker 02

  Ohio, where everything's a solid six.

• 2:04Travis Kelce?

  All white two-piece jumpsuit right here.

• 2:07Speaker 02

  I mean, white goes with everything, Travis. Now you're just grasping at straws.

• 2:10Travis Kelce?

  That's the funniest thing I've ever.

• 2:16Travis Kelce?

• 3:00Speaker 02

  Sure. Well, on today's bonus episode, we're going to be diving back into the Heights hotline to answer some of those very off-season voicemails that you guys have been sending. Which one do we want to start with, Trav?

• 3:10Travis Kelce?

  I think we want to start with shooting your shot.

• 3:13Speaker 02

  Shooting your shot. All right. We got a question from the New Heights subreddit. Let's take a look.

• 3:20Travis Kelce?

  Okay, let's see it. See it.

• 3:23Speaker 02

  What is the question?

• 3:26Speaker 02

  I'm not seeing a question here.

• 3:27Travis Kelce?

  Travis, these shoes cooler now?

• 3:30Speaker 02

  Travis is our resident, uh, decipher of what is cool and what is not, I will say.

• 3:36Travis Kelce?

  I don't know if that's, that's not, I, I mean, I'll, I'll take it, but I don't know if that's smart. Um, I do a lot of dumb shit that I just like to do because it's dumb.

• 3:46Speaker 02

  Well, dumb is cool, Trav.

• 3:47Travis Kelce?

  Yeah, well, depending on who's, it's, it's all, what is it, subjective? Um, objective, whatever it is.

• 3:54Speaker 02

  You had it right. You had it right.

• 3:55Travis Kelce?

  Nice, nice, nice. It depends on where you're wearing it, you know? What are you wearing it with? You know? How do you, how do you present yourself with it on?

• 4:04Speaker 02

  Well, let's start here. Where would these be cool? What would these be cool to wear to?

• 4:09Travis Kelce?

  I'm not huge on the straps. Are these LeBrons?

• 4:13Speaker 02

  They are. They are LeBron 13s. Does that make a difference into what these are cool to wear to?

• 4:20Travis Kelce?

  I'm typically on top of the Brons series.

• 4:23Speaker 02

  You're a shoe guy.

• 4:24Travis Kelce?

  I am a shoe guy. I, I collect Brons and Jordans specifically, um, as well as Kobe's, uh, Nike's. Not yet. When he, when he, uh, came over to the Nike side.

• 4:35Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 4:37Travis Kelce?

  I I don't think I've ever seen these.

• 4:41Speaker 02

  What's interesting about these is I'm usually into the neon colors, but it feels like these aren't like, it's like, kind of like showy, but it doesn't really feel.

• 4:51Travis Kelce?

  Are these Buzz Light Years?

• 4:54Speaker 02

  Is that a thing?

• 4:55Travis Kelce?

  I mean.

• 4:57Speaker 02

  It's got the green and purple.

• 4:59Travis Kelce?

  Yeah.

• 5:00Speaker 02

  Where would it be cool to wear these to Travis?

• 5:02Travis Kelce?

  I mean, they're basketball shoes. You can wear them to a basketball game. Uh, wear them on the court. I mean, the bronze are my favorite basketball shoes of all time.

• 5:12Travis Kelce?

  The 13s were probably 2001, 2002. So he was back in Cleveland when these came out.

• 5:22Travis Kelce?

  Yeah, he was back in Cleveland. These came out. So um, I am, uh, I am drowning right now in what the fuck I do with these.

• 5:30Speaker 02

  Maybe let's start here. What would they not be cool to wear to?

• 5:32Travis Kelce?

  It's there. It's, it's all how you wear them. There's nothing, there's no like.

• 5:37Speaker 02

  Like you can't wear these to a funeral. Not cool. It's not going to be.

• 5:41Travis Kelce?

  I mean, who, is it LA FMO's funeral? Like who's?

• 5:46Travis Kelce?

  You know, like there's some, there's certain people that, you know, wouldn't mind a brown 13 in this, this colorful way.

• 5:54Speaker 02

  All right.

• 5:55Travis Kelce?

  I think, uh,

• 5:58Travis Kelce?

  I think they're cool. One, because they're bronze.

• 6:03Travis Kelce?

  I think it's a very specific look that you have to put together to rock them though. If you're not going to rock them on the court.

• 6:10Speaker 02

  What are you wearing with them to pull it off?

• 6:12Travis Kelce?

  To pull this off?

• 6:15Speaker 02

  MC Hammer pants?

• 6:18Travis Kelce?

  Parachute pants? It's just interesting choice. Interesting choice. You'd have to match it with like a parachute shirt, which is a nice baggy shirt. Parachute pants and like other kinds of shirts just don't really, you gotta have it tucked in, shows off the physique a little bit and then, um, I probably wouldn't do that with these.

• 6:38Speaker 02

  Where would you go?

• 6:39Travis Kelce?

  I'm thinking jumpsuit. I'm thinking jumpsuit. Yeah, little top bottle of two-piece trap.

• 6:44Speaker 02

  What color is the jumpsuit?

• 6:46Travis Kelce?

  Um, I guess you could mix it in with a little neon colorway. Um, try and match it with this. I think if we go green, it'd probably be a little too much. You can always go, I think a nice white and all white two-piece jumpsuit right here.

• 7:01Speaker 02

  I mean, white goes with everything, Travis. Now you're just grasping at straws.

• 7:05Travis Kelce?

  Well, when you got loud shoes, you could just kind of, you know, be more subtle.

• 7:08Speaker 02

  Let him be the, the showstopper. What about a Buzz Lightyear jumpsuit?

• 7:13Travis Kelce?

  A nice gray, a nice, nice gray. Grays go with everything as well. Gray and white. I mean, we're kind of playing it safe. When, when the shoes are this loud, you gotta.

• 7:23Speaker 02

  Neutral.

• 7:24Travis Kelce?

  Yeah.

• 7:24Speaker 02

  You can't be too loud all over.

• 7:26Travis Kelce?

  You can. And that's the thing is like, if you're going, if you're going raving, you know, if you're about to go on a rave, if you're about to go to a festival.

• 7:35Speaker 02

  Are these good rave shoes?

• 7:37Travis Kelce?

  Typically, when you're going to a rave, you're going to be walking around.

• 7:39Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 7:40Travis Kelce?

  Basketball shoes are going to give you good support.

• 7:42Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 7:42Travis Kelce?

  Um, I'm sure when Bron came out with these shoes, he didn't think.

• 7:45Speaker 02

  That's what he was thinking of.

• 7:47Travis Kelce?

  Thinking he was gonna get promoted to go to.

• 7:50Speaker 02

  A lot of people jump around a lot of raves. They're built for jumping.

• 7:53Travis Kelce?

  Yeah.

• 7:54Speaker 02

  Could change your direction.

• 8:00Travis Kelce?

  Jason.

• 8:00Speaker 02

  I think these are rave shoes. Yeah.

• 8:02Travis Kelce?

  Yeah. If you're going to a rave, grab the Buzz Lightyear Brown 13s.

• 8:06Speaker 02

  All right. Let's get into some of these voicemails. New Ohio slogan. Let's hear it.

• 8:10Speaker 03

  Hi, Jason and Travis. My name is Grace and I'm from Tuscarus County, Ohio, which is about 40 minutes south of Canton. And my question pertains to Ohio. If the state of Ohio was looking for a new slogan, what would you make it? Thank you.

• 8:28Travis Kelce?

  Okay. Do you know Ohio's current slogan? Let's start there. Let's, what's Ohio's current slogan?

• 8:35Speaker 02

  It's high in the middle and round on the outside.

• 8:38Travis Kelce?

  That's the funniest thing I've heard. Do they still do, uh, like state commercials? I remember growing up and always seeing an Ohio commercial. I don't remember, I just remember like.

• 8:52Travis Kelce?

  Like it feeling weird that they're promoting a state like it's like something consumer. Yeah, like it's like a

• 9:00Speaker 02

  This is where you want to be.

• 9:02Travis Kelce?

  Yeah, this is where you want to be. West Virginia. They tried to sell me on West Virginia one time. I'm not gonna lie, it's a beautiful landscape. Um, they didn't really give me a reason to go there, though.

• 9:12Speaker 02

  Do you know what Missouri's is? I know what Missouri's slogan is.

• 9:15Travis Kelce?

  No, tell me.

• 9:16Speaker 02

  The show me state.

• 9:17Travis Kelce?

  The show me state. Okay, okay, okay. I did know that. I've heard that one before.

• 9:21Speaker 02

  That's a great one. That's one of my favorite. Uh, show me states a great one. Uh, Ohio slogan, I mean, roller coaster capital of the world.

• 9:30Travis Kelce?

  That's it. Yeah, we can't. That's, that's not much of a slogan, though.

• 9:34Speaker 02

  No, no.

• 9:35Travis Kelce?

  Where home feels home. All right.

• 9:39Travis Kelce?

  It's too sentimental. We gotta give us some edge. We gotta give us some edge. What's Cleveland's? Cleveland notoriously has been known as the mistake on the lake, and I think that's, I think that's pretty fucked.

• 9:48Speaker 02

  I mean, we've had a lot of mistakes, but to say we are just in general a mistake is a bit, it's a bit far, in my opinion.

• 9:55Travis Kelce?

  We were once one of the wealthiest cities in the world.

• 9:57Speaker 02

  So what a river caught on fire a few times.

• 9:59Travis Kelce?

  Listen, it happens when you, when you're producing that much steel, you got all those rigs coming through. It happens. We're not the only one, right?

• 10:08Speaker 02

  I don't, can't be.

• 10:11Travis Kelce?

  Shout out to Randy Newman, man. He made that into a beautiful song.

• 10:14Speaker 02

  Randy is, I mean, I, I found myself listening to more and more Randy.

• 10:17Travis Kelce?

  Another Toy Story reference right there.

• 10:19Speaker 02

  Ohio, little something for everybody.

• 10:25Speaker 02

  I feel like Ohio does have like a very big, like, there's a big difference going from northeast Ohio in Cleveland area to like southern, southwestern Ohio and Cincinnati. In the middle is just like farmland around, and then you got a big ass university in the middle of it.

• 10:41Travis Kelce?

  Oh, yeah.

• 10:42Speaker 02

  We like to hold on to our history.

• 10:44Travis Kelce?

  Ohio, where the beer loves you.

• 10:48Speaker 02

  It's a good one. Ohio, where everything's a solid six.

• 10:57Travis Kelce?

  Ohio, we guarantee you'll never be too high or too low.

• 11:01Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 11:02Travis Kelce?

  What's the biggest thing Ohio's known for, you think?

• 11:05Speaker 02

  Probably at this point, Ohio State. You know, Proctor and Gamble in Cincinnati, like Ohio, like Buckeyes is obviously

• 11:11Travis Kelce?

  state.

• 11:12Speaker 02

  Emblem of the state, basically. Yeah. Ohio, when there's nothing quite good enough for people to reference. So they always just talk about how great Clevelanders are. Whenever you say from Ohio, it's like, hey, everybody in Ohio is so nice. That's the only thing I ever hear about Ohio.

• 11:28Speaker 04

  Do you guys know what the current slogan is?

• 11:30Speaker 02

  Sure. What's the current?

• 11:31Travis Kelce?

  We were hoping you were gonna write it in.

• 11:33Speaker 04

  I was letting you down the vine there a little bit.

• 11:35Speaker 02

  Nice.

• 11:38Speaker 02

  The heart of it all.

• 11:39Speaker 04

  Heart of it all.

• 11:39Speaker 02

  I like that. I think we don't need to come up with a new one at all. That's a great one.

• 11:43Travis Kelce?

  Why are we trying to find a new one?

• 11:45Speaker 02

  It's in the heartland. I mean, it sums it up very well.

• 11:48Travis Kelce?

  Kind of the shape of a heart.

• 11:49Speaker 02

  Ohio is full of heart.

• 11:51Travis Kelce?

  Yep. The heart of it all, baby. Well, there you go. We just did that for no fucking reason. All right, cool.

• 11:57Speaker 04

  It's this whole show, Travis.

• 12:00Speaker 02

  Thank you to our sponsor, Planet Fitness.

• 12:03Travis Kelce?

• 12:05Speaker 02

  No.

• 12:08Speaker 02

• 13:00Speaker 02

  Thank you to our sponsor, Colgate Total. Remember when we were younger and thought stretching was optional?

• 13:05Travis Kelce?

  Yeah. Now, if I don't stretch, I'm feeling like something's gonna pull, walk into the fridge.

• 13:11Speaker 02

  That's right.

• 13:11Travis Kelce?

  Whether it's stretching before a big game, or you know, just hitting the golf course, or yeah, stretching is huge for preventing injuries.

• 13:18Speaker 02

  Exactly. You do a little up front, you save yourself a big problem later. You know who else is big on prevention?

• 13:25Travis Kelce?

  Who?

• 13:26Speaker 02

  Colgate Total.

• 13:28Travis Kelce?

  Did you just go from like stretching and being an athlete to toothpaste?

• 13:32Speaker 02

  I did, I did. Yes, I did. And it's not just toothpaste, Travis. It's a whole system. Toothpaste, mouthwash, even a special toothbrush.

• 13:40Travis Kelce?

  Yeah. Full dental hygiene. Sounds like a whole game plan for your mouth. And the system prevents stuff like cavities.

• 13:48Speaker 02

  That's right. Cavities for sure. And also gingivitis. It helps prevent oral health problems like these before they even start, when you use it twice a day.

• 13:56Travis Kelce?

  Oh, sounds pretty sweet. I'm locked in on this. It's way better to prevent the problem than try to fix it later.

• 14:03Speaker 02

  That's right. And that's exactly what Colgate Total does.

• 14:07Travis Kelce?

  Get Colgate Total on Amazon today.

• 14:10Speaker 02

  All right. We have a voicemail. Dumbest question ever asked. We will be the determiners of that. Go ahead, Brandon, please, but.

• 14:15Speaker 03

  Hey, guys. My name is Ratty. I'm a huge fan.

• 14:19Travis Kelce?

  Hey.

• 14:20Speaker 03

  My question is, what's the dumbest question you've ever been asked by a reporter, even though there's no dumb questions? And how do you deal with like personal stupid questions from them? Thanks.

• 14:35Speaker 02

  Nothing stands out to me. Do you have any question that stands out to you?

• 14:38Travis Kelce?

  I did. Yeah. Like, what are the keys to the game?

• 14:44Speaker 02

  Just generic questions?

• 14:45Travis Kelce?

  Just the most generic questions ever. I've been fortunate. I haven't been asked two wilder questions, I don't think.

• 14:55Travis Kelce?

  Um, that's wild answers, but I don't think I've ever been asked a question where I was like, that's fucking dumb. I'm not answering that.

• 15:03Speaker 02

  Weird thing you believed as a kid. I like this one more.

• 15:05Travis Kelce?

  Let's hear it.

• 15:06Speaker 03

  Hey, Jason. Hey, Travis. It's Bianca from Johnston, Rhode Island, land of the forget to use your blinkers and endless pursuit. Anyway, my question is, what is the weirdest thing you believed as a kid? Thank you.

• 15:19Speaker 02

  Yeah, I didn't really get a lot of what she said at the beginning. I'm sorry. I didn't get your name or where you're from. That was hard to understand.

• 15:25Travis Kelce?

  Yeah, it was tough.

• 15:26Speaker 02

  Weirdest thing I believed as a kid. There's a couple. One was, uh, I believe that there were sharks in swimming pools.

• 15:35Travis Kelce?

  I knew that was gonna be it.

• 15:38Speaker 02

  I don't know why. I thought that they could get in.

• 15:41Travis Kelce?

  You still feel it every now and then?

• 15:42Speaker 02

  I still like when I'm swimming and I'm not able to see underwater in the deep end. I still honestly am a little nervous. I don't know why.

• 15:50Travis Kelce?

  Like if, like if.

• 15:51Speaker 02

  Like when I'm in a big lap pool and I'm swimming and I'm just, there's all this water around me. I still have this like anxiety and I don't fully comprehend why.

• 16:01Travis Kelce?

  Ah, that's fucking gold, man.

• 16:04Speaker 02

  Was it phallus phobia or something like that is, I forget what it's called, but there's some type of fear that I definitely have when it comes to water. Yeah, I, I thought that they could like somehow get through those like openings in the side of the pool that are just like helping filter the water. I, I just, doesn't make a lot of logical sense. Um, that's definitely the weirdest one.

• 16:27Travis Kelce?

  Crazy that it's like that though.

• 16:29Speaker 02

  Yeah. What's the weirdest thing you've ever believed Travis?

• 16:32Travis Kelce?

  I just believed my name was supposed to be Charles.

• 16:35Speaker 02

  Yeah, I remember that. I had a feeling you were going to that.

• 16:38Travis Kelce?

  That's the only thing I can really like, I just believed I could tell people my name was Charles and they would, and that was now my name.

• 16:47Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 16:47Travis Kelce?

  And no, it's not how that works. You have to like go to school and like have a government ID and like, no, your name's Travis because your parents named you Travis, not because you wanted your name to be something else. So there you go. It was quite a kick. It was a kick until I embarrassed my mom at a block party.

• 17:09Speaker 02

  That was a very funny moment.

• 17:12Travis Kelce?

  Yes.

• 17:13Speaker 02
