0:00 Speaker 00 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.
0:21 Speaker 01 Usually the conversation around here is about football. Today, the topic is gas for one of the sponsors, specifically Mobil Supreme Plus Premium Gasoline. Let's start with the fact that Mobil Supreme Plus Premium is amazing. It keeps engines three times cleaner, so engines perform better for better gas mileage. Just ask motorsports legend Shirley Cha Cha Mul Downey. She raced top fuel dragsters in the 70s. So she knows a thing or two about gasoline. She also knows a thing or two about the 70s. So if there are any questions about leisure suits, vinyl, or fondue, fire away. One might wonder why they call her Cha Cha. Like, is it a family name or a marketing ploy? Or maybe she thought it sounded cool. It's very curious. Getting back to fuel, Shirley and the team highly recommend Mobil Supreme Plus Premium Gas
1:03 Speaker 01 because it keeps engines three times cleaner for better performance and gas mileage. By the way, Cha Cha Mul Downey, she drove a pink car. Mobile, legendary. Three times cleaner compared to Mobil regular gas and port fuel injected engines. Actual results may vary. Visit mobilfuels.com for details.
1:19 Travis Kelce? Thank you to our partner Royal Caribbean. Dude, have you seen this? Royal Caribbean just dropped the Legend of the Seas. It's the biggest cruise ship on the planet. Like, nothing's even close to being this big. And it's sailing out of Fort Lauderdale, starting this November.

1:53 Speaker 03 And the entertainment, Latin music, ice skating, full-on Broadway shows. It's pretty amazing. Pretty much everything you want in one place. Oh, and did I mention there's a water park?
2:03 Travis Kelce? You didn't, and that's, that'd be the kicker for me.
2:05 Speaker 03 I love a water park.
2:06 Travis Kelce? But the crazy one? Crown's Edge, a ropes course off the side of the ship. Not for the faint of heart, brother.
2:15 Speaker 03 They've also got Playmaker, sports bar, and arcade. So that means games on every screen. I love a good arcade sports place.
2:24 Speaker 03 Combination.

5:09 Speaker 03 Didn't get the linguine. Fuck. I knew I was forgetting something.
5:12 Travis Kelce? Yeah, you were missing out on that one. I heard you might even have some content with Big Head coming up.
5:17 Speaker 03 Big Head was there with me.
5:19 Travis Kelce? Nice.
5:20 Speaker 03 It was a, it was a great meal. It was good. Saw Peter Schrager and Cliff Kingsbury there.
5:24 Travis Kelce? Nice.
5:25 Speaker 03 Aikman. It was a star studded, like everybody.
5:27 Travis Kelce? Troy popped in too.
5:28 Speaker 03 I don't know. I can't, I didn't see if Troy was eating there. Joe Buck was definitely there with.
5:33 Travis Kelce? Nice.
5:33 Speaker 03 Michelle.
5:35 Travis Kelce? Well, I appreciate you for pulling up. Joe Buck, the whole gang over there at ESPN and, and any of the commanders that, that stopped through knowing that, uh, most of the away teams stay at the Lowe's as well, but, um, yeah, man. How'd you like it?
5:50 Speaker 03 It's fantastic. I mean, it's a high end, like very well done steakhouse.
5:54 Travis Kelce? Nice.
5:56 Speaker 03 I did think it was interesting. There's a lot more creativity to it. I didn't, there was the goat burger, which was like a step up from the big red, but I'm like, I'm getting the big red. I'm here for the Andy Reid burger.
6:05 Travis Kelce? Got to get the big red.
6:06 Speaker 03 And then, uh, got the cheesesteak as well. We also got the meatballs and whip ricotta. That was fantastic.
6:13 Travis Kelce? I'm glad you enjoyed it. Did you get the big Yeti?
6:15 Speaker 03 I did. I got the big Yeti. I got the alchemy. I got both. The alchemy was really tasty.
6:19 Travis Kelce? I'll tell you what that thing is.
6:21 Speaker 03 Cosmopolitan twists, which I don't care. Call me what you want. It was tasty. The big Yeti was great. Got a garage beer.
6:27 Travis Kelce? Nice. Yeah, we got garages in there, baby.
6:30 Speaker 03 My favorite part of the evening. The waitress is, we're asking her like, oh, what do you like? Like what? And she's kind of listing off all these things. And you know, dad can't hear, right? So he's on the far side of it already.
6:43 Travis Kelce? Damn it.
6:44 Speaker 03 And I looked, I'm like looking over and I look over at him and I could tell he can't hear a fucking, and he just looks up. He whispers to me, he's like, I can't fucking hear a single thing she's saying.
6:55 Speaker 03 And all he does. She's mid, still explaining, he's like, Whipper Cotta meatballs.
7:05 Speaker 03 Like not in a dick way, he just like, he just like blurts it out. She's like, oh yeah, the Whipper Cotta is like a nice, and I'm like, oh no, no, he's ordering that.
7:17 Speaker 03 It was so fucking funny.
7:19 Travis Kelce? Brandon put it in here. What's the most Travis Kelce thing about the restaurant?
7:23 Speaker 03 What's the most Travis Kelce thing about the restaurant? I mean, the big getty drink. I think the most Travis Kelce thing is like, it has a lot of
7:33 Speaker 03 like, regular food done at like an upscale level. Like I've always made fun of Travis a little bit for like chicken fingers, cheeseburgers, like grilled cheese, like you're, yeah, like a very, like, Trav for a long time ate like a child. And now we're at a steakhouse and there's some child like items that are done at like a really high level or like, I guess, like normal item, like lobster roll. Like it's like, everybody's had a lobster roll, but this is like a more upscale, intense flavor, flavor lobster.
8:07 Travis Kelce? On it. Yeah.
8:07 Speaker 03 Exactly. Yeah. So that feels Travis Kelce like.
8:11 Travis Kelce? I appreciate you pulling up to the, uh, to the restaurant, um, and everybody that pulled up to the restaurant, man. Um, and if you get an opportunity, go in there and check it out, man. You get there on those, the prime time and the prime hours, man, you'll get some live music, all pretty much Motown music and, uh, they absolutely crushed it in there, man. It's such an honor to be a part of this thing.
8:30 Speaker 03 Highly recommend getting your reservation in advance because it was, it's not easy to get into folks.
8:36 Travis Kelce? Who are rolling, baby. Um, all right, let's keep this thing moving. Jason came out with yet another cinematic masterpiece. I don't know whether they call you Arnold Kelsey or Jason Schwarzenegger.
8:49 Speaker 03 We had this idea to do a Predator garage beer, freaking, uh, kind of funny, short film. This isn't even the full night. We got a full ma- full like 11 minute feature coming out on November 1st.
9:04 Travis Kelce? Let's go.
9:05 Speaker 03 And one of the coolest things that we got to actually partner with the actual Predator movie that's coming out. So we're doing a lot of, we're doing a bunch of cross promotion because I mean, I don't know what it is about Predator. I just love everything about the series, like all of it. Like whenever there's a Predator available to be watched, I'm all in on it. And this new one looks pretty dope. So yeah.
9:26 Travis Kelce? Okay. Well, just because you're helping promote it, I'm in.
9:30 Speaker 03 Yeah, man. It'll be.
9:31 Travis Kelce? This is awesome, dude. You got Bo Allen in it again, dude. Bo's.
9:34 Speaker 03 Bo.
9:34 Travis Kelce? Bo's crushing it everywhere. But I'm just blown away at how good this shit looks. Like it's not just you just fucking around with like a camcorder in the backyard. It's like you guys are actually doing a great job with the special effects and like just the shots and the lighting. And everything looks fucking great, man.
9:54 Speaker 03 Honestly, like I can take zero credit for that. Yeah, there's a, we have a.
9:58 Travis Kelce? That's why I'm showing love, though. This shit's awesome.
10:01 Speaker 03 Jordan Phoenix, the director, and I think it's his company. If I'm not, if it's not Jordan, I apologize. I always fucking forget, but he's, has a whole crew of people that he works with. And we've done a bunch of stuff now at Garage Beer. We did the Brumate earlier in the year with you. They are incredible, all of them, but Papa and Hackett, Jason Hackett has been in a bunch of the films now. So there's like a good team of people that know how to work together and Jordan, so. I guess he knows so many people in the different.
10:36 Travis Kelce? In the industry.
10:37 Speaker 03 Yeah, the industry. Thank you. Where like if we need sound, he's got a sound guy. If we need special effects, there's that person and, and it's, it's been a lot of fun making this stuff. So.
10:47 Travis Kelce? Hell, yeah.
10:48 Speaker 03 You know, we get to drink a bunch of beer and make some stupid film.
10:52 Travis Kelce? It saved the world, man.
10:53 Speaker 03 And enjoy reliving one of our childhood favorite movies of all time. And get excited about the, the new one coming out. So yeah, it's a, it's pretty awesome. Appreciate it.
11:04 Travis Kelce? Yeah. Well, if you guys, if you guys haven't seen just the first snippet, uh, which was the, the cross promo for the new Predator movie, it's on Garage Beer's social pages, well, it's Jason's social page. But come in November 1st or 2nd, 2nd?
11:19 Speaker 03 So our film is coming out the first.
11:22 Travis Kelce? Nice.
11:22 Speaker 03 I think that's Friday. Does that sound right? Sure.
11:26 Travis Kelce? Let's call it November 1st. Everybody stay on the lookout.
11:32 Speaker 03 Yeah. And then Predator Badlands, the new Predator that comes out this year is coming out November 7th.
11:37 Travis Kelce? Keep a lookout, baby.
11:39 Speaker 03 Let's move on to a little bold topics to wrap up week eight in the NFL. Bold topics is brought to you by Gillette. Let's start with the Chiefs, Trav. A little Monday Night Football.
11:50 Travis Kelce? The best a fan can get.
11:52 Speaker 03 Chiefs 28, Commander 7. Monday Night Football, Trav. What are your initial thoughts?
12:00 Travis Kelce? I gotta stop fucking handing the goddamn other team the ball, man. Fuck.
12:03 Speaker 03 You made up for it.
12:04 Travis Kelce? That's the thing. Everyone's like, yeah, you made up for it. You had 99 more yards. And I'm just like, yeah, no, that doesn't take away from the fact that I turned the ball over. But I appreciate it. Thank you for saying that I had a decent game and that you forgot about it. I think, I think we're rolling, man. We're rolling as a team. Obviously, Commander's missing their, their QB. And he's, he's the kind of player where if he's playing, that, that game is probably a little bit closer.
12:31 Speaker 03 Yeah.
12:32 Travis Kelce? But at the same time, man, defense is playing great. Special teams is playing great. And offense, man, it just feels like we're, we're dialing the right things up and, and we're rolling as an offense, man. It's, it's fun when, when everybody's getting a piece of the pie. You know, Rashid's going crazy. Noah Gray's making big plays left and right. We got the run game. We're getting downhill. Even without Trey, Trey Smith and my guy, Mike Caliendo stepped up again this week and it's just, it's, it's fun. It's fun to play on this, on this offense with this many weapons, man. It's just a fucking blast. And sure enough, we're scoring touchdowns, man. And that's where, that's where it really gets fun, man.
13:14 Travis Kelce? When you're putting up seven points every time you touch the ball, man, fuck. It's a fun, fun time.
13:19 Speaker 03 Yeah. I mean, yeah, it was close in the first half, but both offenses really roll in the first half. I know you like Jaden was obviously missed out there, but Mariota played really good in the first half, especially he only had like three incompletions. And one of them was the interception that bounced off of Debo's face mask, so. It was a weird first half. Like you guys moved the ball really well. Obviously had the two turnovers. You mentioned the play where it hit off your hands.
13:43 Travis Kelce? Yeah.
13:44 Speaker 03 They had a couple of turnover on downs like, but in the second half, you guys got it cleaned up. Started finishing the drives off, right?
13:51 Travis Kelce? Yeah.
13:52 Speaker 03 It is a, it's kind of, we talked about it before the game.
13:58 Speaker 03 The thing that's really carried the Chiefs the last couple of years has been the defense like, and then obviously you guys being able to execute in close games and in crucial moments, but the defense has kind of been the thing that's been really high level in Kansas City. Now the offense, it feels like you guys are playing better than you played in like two or three years right now. Like you're really
14:22 Speaker 03 holistically, you're making big plays down the field. You're getting all the short passes. I think Pat's like time to throw is quicker than it's ever been in his career.
14:29 Travis Kelce? Yeah.
14:30 Speaker 03 The offensive line is protecting so much better. The run game is going like, it feels like every single facet of the offense is really operating at a high level and
14:39 Travis Kelce? Yeah.
14:40 Speaker 03 we haven't seen that really in two or three years consistently like it is right now. I feel like so. It's kind of crazy to say, I feel like the Chiefs right now might be better than they've been the last two years. I mean, I don't want to crown anything. You guys went to two Super Bowls. And it feels like somehow you guys got better.
14:59 Travis Kelce? Right. Yeah.
14:59 Speaker 03 Yeah. I don't know if it feels like that to you.
15:01 Travis Kelce? The energy in the building feels a lot more electric. Like it feels like we're, we're moving at a pace that we weren't moving at last year and and it's, it's honestly because we're scoring touchdowns. I think when everybody's getting a piece of the pie like this, I mean, you know, there's, there's a lot of focus on, on me and obviously Rashid and you got fastest, one of the fastest guys in the league, Xavier and
15:25 Speaker 03 Yeah.
15:25 Travis Kelce? and then Hollywood is a big play waiting to be made and then Ty
15:30 Speaker 03 Taekwon Thornton.
15:30 Travis Kelce? Is out here making big plays early on. So he's a threat. And then all of a sudden Juju's wide ass fucking open in the middle of the field because you forgot about him and you know it's.
15:40 Speaker 03 Let's bring that up. Juju does so many little things that just do not get any credit.
15:44 Travis Kelce? Ball player, baby. Just a ball player, man. He's, he's gonna.
15:47 Speaker 03 He's, he's a very good possession receiver. He blocks his ass off.
15:52 Travis Kelce? Oh, yeah.
15:52 Speaker 03 And on top of that, like, I know, I don't want to bring up the whole like swag thing. He gets in other people, like, he is the, he's an instigator. And it's good to have one of those guys out there. Like, that's just the reality of it.
16:04 Travis Kelce? Like, he's an instigator without, like, the intentions of.
16:07 Speaker 03 I shouldn't say instigator. I should, I should, he's an agitator. He's gonna get, like, shit riled up and get people out of playing their game.
16:16 Travis Kelce? He's a showman. He's a showman. He loves to have fun. He likes to, he likes to do fun first down motions or whatever you call them. Like, he's, he enjoys playing the game of football in the, at the highest level possible. You know what I mean? So.
16:29 Speaker 03 Yes.
16:29 Travis Kelce? And when you're doing that kind of stuff, yeah, it's gonna piss some guys off when you're having success, man. It's the best.
16:35 Speaker 03 And it was an outstanding game. The Chiefs, again, building on it. And you guys got a big task coming up this next week in Buffalo, short week. But let's talk about some Yeti records. These are official, official records, Trap. With your catch, when you're touchdown catching in the third quarter, you're now tied with the franchise record for touchdowns, right? You and Priest Holmes are tied.
16:56 Travis Kelce? Priest fucking Holmes, man. That's, that's some pretty crazy stuff, dude. Cause Priest Holmes, that was like the heart of our childhood and our fandom in the NFL, man. And.
17:04 Speaker 03 Yes.
17:05 Travis Kelce? All the, all the video games and every, like, Priest Holmes was, he was a guy that I was fucking playing on the video games with left and right, cause how badass he was.
17:14 Speaker 03 Well, it's even wilder. I appreciate, I don't know who put this in there, probably, I don't know, we'll give our intern brand. Whoever put this in there saying Holmes did it in four and a half seasons. How fucking crazy is that?
17:25 Travis Kelce? Oh, my God.
17:26 Speaker 03 He scored 83 touchdowns in four and a half seasons.
17:32 Speaker 03 That tells you how dominant Priest Holmes was.
17:34 Travis Kelce? Dude was so dog. I'm telling you, bro. They were in two tight end sets and they were fucking handing that thing off to him, dude. Left and right. They're like, bro, give Priest the fucking ball.
17:43 Speaker 03 Travis, you're second in receiving yards this season. You're 36. The other top five guys are 23, 24, 25, and 22 years old. Tyler Warren's having an incredible year. Tucker Kraft, did you watch that Green Bay game Sunday night?
18:00 Travis Kelce? I watched that fucking game. That is a fucking man amongst boys right there, baby.
18:04 Speaker 03 Right?
18:05 Travis Kelce? Tucker's a dog, man. I hear through a lot of, a lot of the league and the time I spent with him at Titan U, man, he's just the fucking man. He's all around. He's the epitome of a fucking tight end. He's whatever you need, coach. I'm here. I'm here to fucking get this thing done. And they leaned on him a lot in the pass game this past Sunday night. And man, he was fucking rolling.
18:26 Speaker 03 Dude, not only was he had like, I don't, he was just shy of like 150, I think. Maybe I'm wrong on that, but he was right around there.
18:33 Travis Kelce? He was one for you.
18:34 Speaker 03 And like all of them, none of them were like easy crossers wide open. Like he was catching, breaking tackles. The one big one he had, he had to moss fucking like two people to get up there and go get it like.
18:45 Travis Kelce? Bro, just a fucking dog.
18:47 Speaker 03 It was, it was a very impressive game from him. But yeah, Travis, you're, you're over a decade older than every other person on this list.
18:58 Travis Kelce? Ah, damn, man. I feel younger than ever too, man. Fuck.
19:01 Speaker 03 Every single person on this list was born after Y2K.
19:10 Travis Kelce? That's insane.
19:11 Speaker 03 They don't even know what Y2K is.
19:13 Travis Kelce? No, they don't. They don't. They don't even know the world was about that.
19:16 Speaker 03 Yeah. They didn't know the fucking predicament that we were in with the computers and their calendars.
19:21 Travis Kelce? Water. We're under, we're in our basement. Because that's what we were gonna lose. We were gonna lose water.
19:28 Speaker 03 Listen, we've made a critical malfunction.
19:31 Travis Kelce? Water and toilet paper. We were fucking stocked.
19:34 Speaker 03 That shit. They don't even fucking know.
19:39 Travis Kelce? They don't even know. She was keeping me up at night when I was fucking 10.
19:48 Speaker 03 Oh, man. Most importantly, we got your biggest fan. I just love every time you fucking do something. The one guy who's guaranteed to fucking, the one person who's guaranteed to shout you out is the one and only Henry Winkler.
20:03 Travis Kelce? Let's go.
20:04 Speaker 03 Nice tweet. Congratulations, T. Kelsey.
20:07 Travis Kelce? Nice, man. That's my guy right there.
20:09 Speaker 03 And it wasn't just the fans. We had a bunch of your teammates weighing in. Rashid Rice said, you know, I've seen a lot of spark out of Trav. It's never really gone. He's a very patient player. Patience is not a word I'd usually describe you with. I've been learning from that.
20:22 Travis Kelce? I learned that from Mr. Miyagi, yeah.
20:25 Speaker 03 Now, Patrick Mahomes said this.
20:26 Speaker 04 He's just like the true Chiefs chief. I mean, he is the guy that's been here through the whole thing, been here with Coach Reed the entire time. And he helps set the culture, you know, he helps set the culture of what it, what it means and to play for Coach Reed and to play in Kansas City. And I was able to come in and then have that guy to rely on. And so he's breaking all the records now. And I mean, he, he's all about the team. So I want to make sure he gets that. And hopefully we can get another football for him later in the season when he actually breaks the record.
20:51 Speaker 03 There we go. How's it feel to be the Chiefs chief?
20:54 Travis Kelce? If anybody's the chief, it's, it's Andy Reid.
20:57 Speaker 03 Yeah, baby.
20:58 Travis Kelce? When it comes to, when it comes to being one of his disciples and one of his, his guys, you know, that's where the real honor comes in. And obviously, there's been so many fucking unbelievable players that come through Kansas City and that the, the history's very rich and the prestige of, you know, players on and off the field here is, is, you know, that's a legacy. And, uh, no, it's just, it's cool to hear old Patty Mahomes say that.
21:24 Speaker 03 There was an article in The Athletic about the Chiefs new three-letter slogan for this year, AAF. Walk us through, uh,
21:32 Travis Kelce? We got a bunch of three-letter slogans, man.
21:34 Speaker 03 Yeah, what's up?
21:34 Travis Kelce? I'll tell you what, man, listen.
21:36 Speaker 03 Big acronym team.
21:37 Travis Kelce? Yeah, big acronym. Big acronym team. We got a few of them. Banff is another one that you guys haven't heard yet. Yeah, Banff is another.
21:44 Speaker 03 Badass motherfucker. I think I know that one. All right.
21:48 Travis Kelce? Maybe.
21:51 Travis Kelce? The thing is, is that that's why it's an acronym is so, you know, you could, you.
21:55 Speaker 03 You can say it. Don't have to worry about getting fined.
21:57 Travis Kelce? There you go. It's, it's. Sometimes you just gotta throw an acronym together, a slogan together and get the team, you know, all under one understanding of how we're about to, how we're about to go about our day. And I think Coach Nagy and the offensive staff, we came up with this in, I think, OTAs.
22:19 Speaker 03 Yeah.
22:19 Travis Kelce? And, and, you know, kind of like, wanted to make sure that, that everybody was on the same page on how we were going to get things done. How we were going to go to work every single day, the type of mindset that you need to have. And coaches come up with these slogans all the time, brother. This isn't, as you know, this isn't the first slogan to ever, you know.
22:38 Speaker 03 Some, sometimes it's the acronyms and you got like, hold the rope. I do like when it's more, I do like the.
22:44 Travis Kelce? Feed the fire, fuel the fire.
22:46 Speaker 03 Chop wood.
22:47 Travis Kelce? Yeah.
22:48 Speaker 03 And then you just.
22:48 Travis Kelce? Circle the wagons.
22:50 Speaker 03 There's a nice like little, like, when you have like a team motto, it's, and I think it comes from, I think Navy SEALs and like military world where like you have like a one word phrase and it just like snaps people back into like locking in, right? And that's like what this is usually used for. I remember, do you remember ours at Cincinnati?
23:07 Travis Kelce? DEFW, baby.
23:09 Speaker 03 D E F W U. Don't ever fuck with us. Broken down, that was a big, big Derek Wolf, was that Derek Wolf or was that a, a big red thing with zip? Remember?
23:21 Travis Kelce? I don't know where it originated, but it was definitely that, that Eastern.
23:26 Speaker 03 Ohio Valley. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, that was a big one for us. Yeah, that's. The acronyms are always fun for sure. Especially if you get a good one.
23:35 Travis Kelce? Yeah, you get a good one, throw it on a T-shirt, everybody's fired up. And that's what, that's what it's about is that everybody's bought in, everybody's saying it. Everybody has that type of mentality and when you get everybody to buy in, have a fun with it, man. That's what it's there for, man.
23:48 Speaker 03 Not only you guys, AAF on offense or AAF on defense. The defense has only given up seven points in the last eight quarters. 24 points in the last three games.
23:58 Travis Kelce? Yeah.
23:59 Speaker 03 They, they're getting it done, baby. They're rolling right now. They were giving up some yards in that first half, but when players had to make a play, like there was a Trent McDuffie had a tackle on like a. Was a second and one where he just broke on a little rub route and just made a hell of a fucking play.
24:17 Travis Kelce? Trent's a fucking dog, man.
24:18 Speaker 03 Also, shout out to Zach Ertz, Washington commanders. The other 36, was he 36 too?
24:25 Travis Kelce? He's definitely a year 13. I think he's 34, turning 35, maybe.
24:29 Speaker 03 All right, a little bit younger.
24:30 Travis Kelce? Yeah, he was a four year college guy, four year college guy.
24:32 Speaker 03 There you go, yeah, Stanford.
24:34 Travis Kelce? Yeah, he might have been three, shit.
24:35 Speaker 03 Not just in college.
24:37 Travis Kelce? Yeah.
24:37 Speaker 03 Yeah, shout out to Zach Ertz, joining Tony Gonzalez, Jason Witten, Travis Kelce, Antonio Gates, and Shannon Sharp to become only the sixth tight end in NFL history with 800 career reception.
24:49 Travis Kelce? Yes, sir. Me, obviously, everybody, everybody knows me and Ertz came in 13 years ago.
24:55 Speaker 03 Same draft class.
24:55 Travis Kelce? 2013. And to see him still fucking doing it, man, we saw each other before and after it, man. And yeah, I just cherish every fucking game I get to play with that guy, man, or get to compete against him, man.
25:07 Speaker 03 Yeah, absolutely. I got a lot of great memories from Zach. Got some hardware to share, too. Anything we missed about the game? Chiefs?
25:15 Travis Kelce? No, man. We're rolling, baby. We're rolling. We got a big one this week against Buffalo on a short week, man. And the Bills got rolling again this past week. They were part of that, some of those blowout games that we saw on Sunday and.
25:26 Speaker 03 They put up 40? Is that right?
25:28 Travis Kelce? Yeah, yeah. I mean, they can score with the best of them, baby.
25:30 Speaker 03 James Cook had like two, over 220, 30 yards, something like that.
25:35 Travis Kelce? Getting him the ball, getting him the ball is pretty goddamn good.
25:38 Speaker 03 It's good strategy.
25:39 Travis Kelce? Good strategy, yeah. So hopefully we can slow that down and keep putting up points like we've been putting up over the past couple of weeks. Thank you to our sponsor, Colgate Total.

28:10 Travis Kelce? All right, now let's get to the rest of the NFL this week, which was a bunch of fucking blowouts like Jason was mentioning earlier. Let's start with this one. That was, uh, it wasn't necessarily a blowout, but it was a pretty one sided.
28:23 Speaker 03 It was a blowout.
28:24 Travis Kelce? Yeah, it was pretty one sided.
28:25 Speaker 03 I feel comfortable saying that because the Giants already blew us out once. So we'll call it a blowout. It was a blowout to blowout.
28:31 Travis Kelce? Eagles 38, Giants 38. 20. Obviously, one of the biggest storylines of the NFL is Skadaboo had a pretty aggressive ankle injury. Sending all the love to him. Hopefully, he can get back, man. The NFL absolutely loves a motherfucker like that. Just the toughest nails dude. Hopefully, he gets back in in tip top shape. Big Dom, Dom DeSandro, sent over some pizza and cheese steaks. I mean, the guy got a standing ovation as he was getting carted off. Nobody wants to see one of the most loved players in the league get hurt like that. And obviously, what that guy's meant to football over the past couple of weeks has been pretty fucking fun to watch. So hopefully, he gets back healthy and back to running dudes over and and being the epitome of a fucking NFL football player, man.
29:15 Speaker 03 Yeah, man, I think that you you saw like the link can be brutal to opposing players and fans. I've seen
29:23 Travis Kelce? Rival teams, yeah.
29:24 Speaker 03 I've seen the link not handle opposing players getting injured well before. And I don't think it was intentional. Like, I think they're just excited about a big hit or something happening. But it was so apparent how much respect everybody in the NFL has for this guy and how he plays the game. Like, he got a standing ovation getting off the field. Like, very excited to see the future that Cam Skadaboo has in this league. And in such a short time to entrench yourself with that much respect in this league just shows. I try and tell young players this all the time, like, players like, oh, the fans are on me about this, or, you know, I'm getting unfair criticism. Dude, if you just go out there and you play with reckless abandon, you cheat like,
30:08 Speaker 03 and I bring this story up all the time. Zach Ertz got crushed for a week or whatever. The first catch he had, he went out there and he ran through like three people, broke three tackles, and it was like being carried forward. And you know what happened? You know what the fans did? They fucking erupted in cheers. I don't want to hear like, oh, like, they don't, they're saying mean things like, motherfucker, you control it. If you got there with great energy and effort, you will be loved in the sport of football. That's one of the beautiful things about the sport.
30:36 Travis Kelce? Yep.
30:36 Speaker 03 People love guys that just have relentless motors. So that requires zero talent.
30:43 Speaker 03 It just, that's just the reality of it.
30:45 Travis Kelce? That's so spot on, man. Well, get healthy, big guy. Enjoy those cheese steaks. Dom dropped off, but let's get to this game. Initial thoughts on the game, Jason?
30:53 Speaker 03 I mean, this is exactly what we've been waiting to see. I mean, we've known that the Eagles are talented and that if they can play up to what they're capable of, that they are a very dangerous team. And obviously the Giants have been clicking. They've been playing well recently with Jackson Dart, Cam Scataboo, although he left early, and I do think that that took some wind out of their sails. The Eagles are rolling right from the get go. They, I mean, it started with what the second play of the game with that Saquon Barkley, huge rushing touchdown. It never stopped. I mean, we've been waiting to see the ground game get going and a lot has been made about Jalen Hurts in the passing game and that started to get fixed the last couple of weeks. But I don't think people really
31:35 Speaker 03 realize how much when you're running the ball well, it just makes everything go, right? Your play action passing is better. You're in less third and long situations. You're in more third and manageable even when you get to them. And it just makes the rhythm so much better. And the Eagles ran the ball so freaking well. Landon Dickerson is fine. It looks like he's fully healthy and he's been there for the last couple of weeks. Brett Toth was in for Cam Jergens being injured from last game and he went in and played center in the Vikings game without any reps during the week and it wasn't the best outing, right? That's a tough situation to be thrown into, right? Like you work on guard and these other things all week and all of a sudden you're live in the
32:17 Speaker 03 game doing the snaps and he bounced back, man. There was a lot of criticism all week about the previous game and one of his games at guard and he honestly was one of the best players up front for him throughout the day. He had a bunch of crucial blocks. He did well in the combinations. He had a lot of fold schemes, pulling around, making blocks at the second level. And something else that I think doesn't ever really get talked, and I know this just because I know Brett, he puts the line in a really, he's gonna make sure the calls are right. And that is such a big part of having a backup going at center because if you're not all on the same page. It's not communicated well, it can like make everything fall apart.
32:57 Travis Kelce? Fuck yeah.
32:58 Speaker 03 And you could see that those guys were in sync and that everybody was on the same page. And that is, that's half of being successful in the run game. Nine times out, especially if you've got great players, which the Eagles do.
33:07 Travis Kelce? Bodies on bodies, baby. You could give a guy like Saquon a chance, man. It's, we're, we're rolling.
33:13 Speaker 03 Brett, you gotta give him his flowers and I know Philadelphia already is, had an outstanding game. Big Fred Johnson, a lot of six man offensive lineman in the game. You want to get the run game going, it always helps when you put a 610 fucking mutant of a human being out there to go pave some fucking run lanes over. And, uh, yeah, they, they just, they were outstanding all game. Saquon had a day, Tank Bigsby was running the ball really well.
33:37 Travis Kelce? Yeah, both went for a hundred, baby.
33:38 Speaker 03 I mean, there were massive holes, but at the same time, they're also making guys miss, breaking tackles. The Eagles clearly were on a mission to establish the run all day. They've been waiting for this to happen. You could tell they were energized to get it going and they fucking delivered like with some passion. It was an awesome game to watch for an offensive lineman's perspective. Um, and then of course, Jalen was, and Devante Smith in particular were spectacular with the play action.
34:09 Travis Kelce? Don't forget, don't forget my guy Dallas, man. Dallas got in the zone twice, baby.
34:12 Speaker 03 I was talking to Mina Kimes in the production truck right before one of the games one time. And we were talking about the little RPO with the tight end sneaks off into the flat and like every red zone or short yardage situation. It's like, I don't know why we, they, we don't do this every time. Like, I don't think anybody ever covers it. And then sure enough, he gets a touchdown right off of that. It's like, yep. So it was similar to you guys. The Eagles right now are rolling in every phase now. This was what we've been waiting for. The running game has a click. This is a great establishing game for the Eagles ground game. Hopefully Saquon isn't too banged up and we can get him back, uh, after this bye week against, uh, Green Bay. But if the ground game is clicking like this, they have a great balance right now of Jalen going under center, doing play action.
34:56 Speaker 03 They're still, and then they're doing the RPOs at times, whether it's the fold schemes with Toth or the zone read options where you got Dallas in the flat, whatever it is, they're doing a great job with all of that. And then on top of that, Jalen's operating really well, throwing the ball down the field and getting explosive plays. So you could not have asked for a better game offensively, like you couldn't have.
35:14 Travis Kelce? Yeah.
35:15 Speaker 03 So anyways.
35:16 Travis Kelce? Get them boys up front rolling, man.
35:18 Speaker 03 Let's go, Bubba.
35:18 Travis Kelce? And then what we didn't talk about is the tush push. Very controversial tush push.
35:23 Speaker 03 Did you see it?
35:24 Travis Kelce? Of course I did. And I.
35:26 Speaker 03 It's a fumble. Like they missed it.
35:29 Travis Kelce? I'm glad you said it. It's it's one of those like you gotta fucking blow the whistle. And say that his momentum stopped, or you gotta call it a fumble.
35:37 Speaker 03 Well, I think that they were. They were trying to blow the whistle supposedly. I don't know the exact sequence you have it, but his his forward momentum wasn't stopped. Right? Like, listen, I know everybody wants to get into tush push. Again, I don't see how this has anything to do with the tush push. Officials miss forward progress calls all the time.
35:54 Travis Kelce? All the time.
35:55 Speaker 03 So I know there's been a lot of noise around false starts and now this play. And I get it. And if the tush push truly is hard to officiate, that would certainly be a reason to ban it. I'm not looking to make excuses. I just don't know how these little things have to do with the actual pushing of tushes. Like, it'll still be an issue if the Eagles run quarterback sneak. Like, that's my one caveat to it. Like, if you allow offensive lineman to false start, they're going to do that, whether there's people pushing the quarterback or not. If you stop forward progress, it wasn't like it wasn't visible. Like, it was visible.
36:28 Travis Kelce? The thing was is that his legs weren't on the ground.
36:32 Speaker 03 Right.
36:32 Travis Kelce? Well, he was like, he he can't go forward anymore, other than he's being pushed.
36:37 Speaker 03 Right.
36:37 Travis Kelce? Which was like, is, does that mean his momentum's still going? Because if his momentum's still going, then that's that's 100% a fumble.
36:45 Speaker 03 I think his momentum was still going. I think the officials missed the call, but it happens all the time. I mean, there's this forward progress thing comes up every once in a while. Like, it's not like that unique, but and I also like, one of my favorite things about the whole thing. Is Giants fans being livid at the officials tweeting at me. I'm like, y'all are getting your asses whipped. What the fuck are you talking about the official? Like, this ain't no one like this. Yeah, like, I don't know what the hell you're what game. What game are y'all watching? You how about you? How about you yell at your safety for not fucking tackling? What are we talking about the officials for?
37:16 Speaker 03 I was just like blown away. I was like, listen, you can complain about the officials when your team is kind of keeping it close, but when you're getting your ass whipped, let's, let's be a little, yeah, let's, exactly, exactly.
37:28 Travis Kelce? Well, uh, Kayvon, uh, Thibodeau gets asked about it after the game and he says,
37:34 Speaker 06 Sounds like some bullshit to me.
37:35 Travis Kelce? Then, uh, Brian Burns quickly cautions him, hey, you'll get fined.
37:40 Speaker 06 Oh, yeah, sorry.
37:41 Travis Kelce? Thibodeau said, sorry, sorry. No, that was a great call by the rest.
37:44 Speaker 06 I mean, that was a great call by the rest.
37:46 Travis Kelce? That'll save you a fine right there. Would you give him, give him a nice compliment afterwards?
37:50 Speaker 03 Which I don't agree with. Listen, I am, you know me, I do not like complaining about officials. I've never have. I, that's not how I operate. I don't think that you should be fined. I think that's bullshit personally.
38:01 Travis Kelce? Yeah, I can't give my opinion on what I thought about the call.
38:04 Speaker 03 Yeah, what the fuck is this? What the fuck is that? Yeah, it's a freedom of speech, baby. What the fuck are we doing right here?
38:08 Travis Kelce? Well, I got my, I got my fine.
38:10 Speaker 03 I don't think that you should be able to be fined for that. I think that's nonsense. And I am all for having the officials back usually, but I mean, listen, it's, it was a bad call. Like, what do you want me to say? I don't know. Moving on to some other things from week eight, uh, a lot of buns games this week. I mean, it's fun if you like, if you, if you wanted to watch the favorite just beat the ever loving shit out of the underdog, it was a great week for you. Um, other than the one game.
38:32 Travis Kelce? Other than the one game.
38:34 Speaker 03 The spirit of Nick Mangle got this one done. I really do like, dude, the Jets winless, like there's no hope that they're going to win a game all season. They can't, they got no momentum happening. And like, obviously it's been talked about Nick Mangle passing. He's been struggling with the, the genetic disorder and needed a new kidney. And you want to talk about one of the stalwart, like,
38:57 Travis Kelce? Come on, man.
38:58 Speaker 03 Best offensive lineman to ever play the game.
39:00 Travis Kelce? Oh, yeah.
39:01 Speaker 03 And I know I get credit a lot for being, a lot of people come up and tell me like, you're the best center to ever play. Like, I get that from other people. And it's hard to receive that because I know in my heart that Nick Mangled at his best was 10 times a player than I ever was. Like, I could never be that dominant at the center position. Nick was phenomenal. He was unbelievable in pass protection. He was an unbelievably smart leader and getting those guys on the same page. And he would murder people in the run game. He was unbelievable when he was in the NFL. He was unbelievable at Ohio State.
39:34 Travis Kelce? Yeah, he was.
39:35 Speaker 03 He's just a stud in every fashion. And I mean, it's just a travesty that that's happened at such a young age. He's got a whole fucking family. And he's just one of the most like, when you think about offensive lineman over the past two decades, like the best of the best, you don't look any further than Nick Mangle. I just think it's really fitting that on the day this whole thing happens that the Jets go out there and pull off the upset and beat the Bengals.
40:00 Travis Kelce? It had me rooting for him, man. And not because it was against the Bengals, just because of, you know, what had went down with with Mangle. And it's crazy how it all came down to them having to to score a touchdown at the end. And they they go with the half back pass. And it wasn't like, like, a catch. And everybody like, it sucks the defense in. And there was like a
40:24 Speaker 03 They're like, no, this is our best chance to throw the ball.
40:28 Travis Kelce? And it's gloved. It's doesn't work. It's gloved. And he says, you know what? Game on the line.
40:35 Speaker 03 Do we have? Here we go.
40:37 Travis Kelce? Oh, the old toss. Oh, it was. It was open. He was just laid on it.
40:41 Speaker 03 Yeah.
40:42 Travis Kelce? Oh, Mason Taylor, baby. Let's go. Oh, man. I don't know if that's his first touchdown, man. But that's a pretty electric first touchdown if it is.
40:51 Speaker 03 Sealed the deal. Well, I think there's only one thing to do, Trav. We got to bring in the one man who's been waiting for this all season. Jets, Jake, please take your victory lap.
41:01 Travis Kelce? Come on in.
41:03 Speaker 07 Let's fucking go. Let's go.
41:07 Travis Kelce? This is what the NFL is made of, just dreams. Cracks the beer.
41:11 Speaker 03 Did you crack a beer? What did you do over there?
41:13 Speaker 07 The Miami Dolphins, when they when a team loses and they keep their undefeated streak, they pop champagne. I'm drinking garage beers, boys.
41:25 Travis Kelce? Let's go.
41:27 Speaker 07 1-0 since we had the tattoo guy on the show. Let's do it.
41:30 Travis Kelce? Oh, 1-0. Bring him back on.
41:33 Speaker 03 Bring Kason back on.
41:34 Speaker 07 Bring him on every week. Bring him on every week.
41:36 Travis Kelce? Get another tattoo.
41:38 Speaker 07 We got the buy this week. Yeah, he's he's got to get a sleeve full of Jets tattoos.
41:43 Travis Kelce? Let's go. A sleeve full of Jake tattoos.
41:47 Speaker 07 I, I can't, I can't endorse that, but.
41:52 Travis Kelce? When Breece, when Breece Hall threw the ball, what was going on in your mind?
41:56 Speaker 07 I thought he was throwing it away. I was like, don't, it was the biggest no, no, no, no, yes play of all time. And then even still, I was like, well, there's too much time left for Joe Flacco. They're gonna come down the field. They're gonna kick a field goal and that fourth and nine, like my heart was racing and then they, they fucking did it. They had one stop when they needed to get it. The Jets got a fucking win. I don't have to hobby horse into the ocean. I'm very grateful.
42:24 Speaker 03 Congratulations Jake. Congratulations all of you Jets fans. And yeah, we gotta get Casey Barrett back on the show, I guess.
42:31 Travis Kelce? Go enjoy those garages, dude.
42:32 Speaker 07 I gotta clean up my room.
42:34 Travis Kelce? Finish those beers first.
42:35 Speaker 03 Cleaning's always better when you've finished your beers first.
42:37 Travis Kelce? Yeah.
42:38 Speaker 03 All right. It was also Travis's favorite holiday, National Tight End Day.
42:44 Travis Kelce? I mean, a bunch of blowouts, tight ends are getting the fucking ball, a bunch of blowouts. What do you expect?
42:48 Speaker 03 Dallas Goddard, two touchdowns, George Kittle got in the end zone, Hunter Henry got in the end zone, David and Joku got in the end zone, Jake got in the end zone, Harold Fanon Jr. Got in the end zone, Charlie Cola got in the end zone, Mason Taylor got in the end zone, National Tight End Day MVP, Tucker Kraft, 143 yards and two touchdowns.
43:05 Travis Kelce? What a fucking day.
43:06 Speaker 03 Trav, were you bummed to not be able to play on the National Tight End Day? I mean, you still had a great day too.
43:10 Travis Kelce? No, I was, I was enjoying sitting down, watching the National Tight End Day.
43:15 Speaker 03 Should it be National Tight End Week?
43:16 Travis Kelce? No.
43:17 Speaker 03 Thank God, just a note of that. All right. We can move on from that now.
43:20 Travis Kelce? Jonathan Taylor MVP watch, man. This guy is fucking on fire. You forget how fast this son of a buck is, man.
43:27 Speaker 03 Dude, we hit that. What was it? The 80 yarder when he?
43:31 Travis Kelce? Holy shit. Him and Gibbs from the Lions, dude. Those two, when they get the fucking open field, bye bye.
43:37 Speaker 03 The 80 yard touchdown he had, I wanna like yell at the safety for taking a bad angle, but I don't like, he goes from like whatever he's doing to like top end speed so quickly. Like it's like, I don't even know how you fucking see that coming.
43:50 Travis Kelce? It's like the 200 turn in a, in a, in a track meet. It's like the 200. You're like, he just hits that fucking turn and just.
43:56 Speaker 03 Watch the safety right here. Like he just.
44:00 Travis Kelce? How is he fucking?
44:01 Speaker 03 He's tight roping it while running 21 miles an hour.
44:05 Travis Kelce? He's running away from guys like this, dude. It's insane. Unbelievable, man. Guy's a fucking special breed and he's got the fucking, the Colts rolling right now.
44:14 Speaker 03 Everybody's got the Colts.
44:16 Travis Kelce? This past week. Yeah, exactly. 14 touches this past week, 174 yards, two tutties, one receiving TD. Um, all against the division rival Titans.
44:25 Speaker 03 Yeah, no, he's fucking balling out and it's not even just him. I mean, their entire offense is playing well. Obviously, Daniel Jones is. I gotta give some love to the big guys up front. Big Quinn and Nelson has been a staple there for his entire career. He is having outstanding year. They had the new center in there, Bordalini. They lose Ryan Kelly. You're wondering how he's gonna do. He's playing unbelievable. Their tackles are great and Bernard Raymond and I think it's Braden Smith. And then, uh, Gon Salves, the, the other guard. I mean, they're, they're all playing so well as a unit. They're getting it done, man. And dude, you just gotta give this guy a little bit of space and he can just turn anything into a.
45:01 Travis Kelce? He's making shit shake.
45:02 Speaker 03 Fucking highlight. So, yeah. There was a play, I think there was like a screenshot somebody put up on Twitter where it was like the debate of whether a normal, like an average person can get one yard and the fucking hole that is created is just, I mean, it's gigantic. There it is.
45:20 Travis Kelce? If it's that, then yeah.
45:22 Speaker 03 Yeah, you can get a yard there probably.
45:25 Travis Kelce? Jake, you can get in there.
45:26 Speaker 03 It's gonna close quick though, so I would hurt.
45:31 Travis Kelce? You gotta have what he has to get the, the rushing triple crown, which he, he's on pace to get for, for the second time if he keeps this up, but, um, you could probably get a yard.
45:42 Speaker 03 Yeah. Yep. Well, that does it for week eight. Both topics brought to you by Gillette.
45:49 Speaker 03 It said, everything happens for a reason, but maybe everything happens for a recess. Take noise cancelling headphones. Do they block hearing to heighten taste? Hmm. That sound seems to show everything happens for a recess. Prize picks packs are here. Rip digital packs and get real basketball footfall and Pokemon cards on prize picks packs.

47:07 Travis Kelce? All right, let's move into stamp of the week brought to you by Audible. Let's think about some, uh, some nominees. Who do we got? We got Chargers rookie.
47:16 Speaker 03 Who fucking put the mafia in there?
47:17 Travis Kelce? I'm not talking about.
47:18 Speaker 03 Back of the news due to the, that's fucking hilarious.
47:21 Travis Kelce? That's fucking sick.
47:22 Speaker 03 Back of the news due to the, it was a wild fucking press conference. Hey, we have an illegal gambling sting. We have Chauncey Billups, uh, Rozier, uh, as well as the Lucchese Gambino. Genevieve's family, dog. I thought we went legit. I thought that was the whole point of casinos. I thought that the, the, it's gone the other way.
47:42 Travis Kelce? Dude, I have no idea.
47:44 Speaker 03 Dog, that was, it's just crazy. It's crazy to be back in those times. Yeah, like it's like a flashback to Goodfellas, like.
47:54 Speaker 03 I am going to do this. I'm going to go Miles Garrett because I did, uh, Jonathan Taylor for the Hemi on Monday night. And swag did Miles Garrett and Miles didn't win. So I'm going to give Miles the stamp here. He's just the best defensive player in the NFL and it was very evident in the Patriots Browns game this past week. Five sacks in one game, set the record for most sacks by a player under 30. He is the biggest freak of nature. He was relentlessly getting pressure on Drake May, which is why I'm also going to kind of give a stamp. I, I think there's another stamp of the week that needs to be given to Drake May. Drake May has been playing unbelievable. And to go out there and still have the game he had while Miles Garrett was beating the shit out of him is extremely impressive.
48:37 Travis Kelce? This guy.
48:39 Travis Kelce? Freddy Krueger fucking following him everywhere around the field, man. He's just unfazed.
48:44 Speaker 03 Drake May's legit. He's fucking awesome. And Miles gets legit, but we already knew that. All right. Um, yeah. Who are you going with, Trav?
48:51 Travis Kelce? What's this, Zach Fraser for holding on to the ball when they thought he was?
48:55 Speaker 03 Oh, yeah. Once you put your hand down on the ball, you can't take it off.
49:00 Travis Kelce? Fuck.
49:00 Speaker 03 That's funny. He's like, can I get up? So for those of you that don't know, once you put your hand on the ball, you can't take your hand off of the ball. Otherwise it's a false start. So because he thought it was no huddle and he got up there to do the snap.
49:13 Travis Kelce? For explaining it.
49:14 Speaker 03 He had to stay down in that position.
49:16 Travis Kelce? That's too fucking funny. That won't get you the stamp of the week, but heads up play. I'll give my stamp to Carson Wentz, man. He didn't have the hell of a game, but god damn it, the guy's fucking a ball player.
49:24 Speaker 03 He's a warrior, man.
49:25 Travis Kelce? He's a warrior. Played the last two and a half games for the Vikings with a torn labrum. And check this out, a fractured socket.
49:33 Speaker 03 Socket?
49:34 Travis Kelce? And man, I saw him get fucking sacked one time in the later, later parts of the game when he was just trying to fucking give his team a chance to win. And he just landed right on that fucking socket, dude. That shit is insane, man. Carson, man, keep being a fucking warrior, man. Keep fucking trying to will your guys to victory, dog. Hats off to you for, for being a gutsy football player, man. And I'll always fucking give somebody some credit when credit's due, man.
50:05 Speaker 03 Yeah, that was a tough ass.
50:06 Travis Kelce? My stamp of the week, brother.
50:07 Speaker 03 Tough motherfucker. That does it for stamp of the week brought to you by audible. Well, let us get into the Halloween week. That's right, Trav. Halloween is this week.
50:17 Travis Kelce? It is.
50:17 Speaker 03 And we have some new heights Halloween costumes to reward. We've been asking all of you guys to send us your new heights themed Halloween costumes and boy, you delivered. Let's, uh, let's check out some of these, uh, Halloween costumes we've been tagged in. Travis Kelce cust- couples costume from Cara Meta. I wonder what this includes?
50:40 Travis Kelce? What the fuck?
50:43 Speaker 03 This couples party and my wife got me to dress up like Travis Kelce, which is not a good idea when you're driving around your neighborhood and all of your neighbors think that you're a major douchebag.
50:58 Travis Kelce? When your wife is Andy Reid.
51:01 Speaker 07 It was worse.
51:02 Speaker 03 Ah, yeah. I definitely expected, uh, not Andy Reid. So well done. Love that. New frights, which we talked about on the show. This is the Halloween setup yard display that we talked about. This was an awesome one. Still looking good.
51:20 Travis Kelce? Pretty solid.
51:21 Speaker 03 Yep. Got the hard eyes from a man, Travie. Dog is Taylor's ring. The fuck does that mean?
51:27 Travis Kelce? I gotta see this.
51:30 Speaker 03 So that's a, that's adorable. That's a fucking great costume.
51:34 Travis Kelce? That's a good costume.
51:35 Speaker 03 That's a 10 out of 10. Hey, dog costumes in general are awesome. That is amazing.
51:41 Travis Kelce? Hilarious.
51:42 Speaker 03 I love the fingernail.
51:43 Travis Kelce? Vegas Jason, uh, from Chiefs Super Bowl. Oh.
51:46 Speaker 03 Oh, yeah.
51:48 Travis Kelce? That's fucking good.
51:49 Speaker 03 Dude, he's got the whole getup. Hell, yeah.
51:52 Travis Kelce? Dude, that's fucking gold. Where did you even find these fucking overalls, man?
51:57 Speaker 03 Beagle Travis and Taylor. Let's take a look at this one.
52:02 Travis Kelce? Dog costumes, man. That shit's gold.
52:05 Speaker 03 I am a sucker for dog costumes. Is that dog on the left even real? That looks like a stuffed animal. Look at that thing. Timeout. Zoom in on the one on the left again. That thing looks like it's like taxidermy. Look at its face. It's like waxy.
52:17 Travis Kelce? It really does.
52:19 Speaker 03 Dog, look at this thing. That does not, look at its mouth. What's happening with that dog?
52:23 Travis Kelce? Look at its eyes.
52:25 Speaker 03 That thing's dead, right?
52:28 Speaker 03 That's like a, what are those called? That's like a clay museum. What, like, what are those things?
52:32 Travis Kelce? I know exactly what you're talking about.
52:34 Speaker 03 Wax museum. It's like a wax museum dog.
52:36 Travis Kelce? God damn, that's fucking funny. Uh, my winner, I'm going with, uh, the, I'm going with Jason from the Chiefs Super Bowl. That's fucking spot on.
52:44 Speaker 03 Don't you fucking dare.
52:45 Travis Kelce? Fucking spot on, dude.
52:47 Speaker 03 That is not the winner. The winner is clearly the fucking dox, the adorable doxen with the fingernail for a head. That is clearly the best costume in this bunch. Followed closely by Andy Reid and Travis Kelce as a couples Halloween outfit. That's fucking hilarious, too. We're going with the doxen?
53:04 Travis Kelce? Yeah, I'm going with doxen. That's cool.
53:05 Speaker 03 Congratulations to the woman with the finger doxen with the ring on it and a fingernail head. That was a great costume idea, very creative, looks to be homemade. Well done. We don't know what your prize is yet. We don't even know what your name is, so we'll figure it out. Uh, we've also got some Halloween voicemails. Love a little voicemail section. Who doesn't love voicemails? Hearing from the fans, 92 percenters. What do we got?
53:28 Speaker 06 Hey, fellas, fellas, fellas. We got, we got Halloween coming up. And I'm not a guy that really dresses up. I grew up with brothers. We had to do family costumes growing up. I bet, you know, you guys probably did some thing one and thing two or Vulcan Skull from the Power Rangers, you know what I'm saying? But um, for us, for us as gentlemen now in our thirties and we got girls that, you know, wanna go dress. What, what, what, what are you guys flying with? What are some ideas that are gonna keep us looking good? And feeling good. While I'm dressed up looking stupid. Yeah.
54:02 Travis Kelce? Nice.
54:02 Speaker 06 All right now.
54:03 Travis Kelce? This guy might have been hammered.
54:04 Speaker 03 I like this guy. Yeah, I liked everything about that call. That was good.
54:08 Travis Kelce? Just when you thought it was over, it wasn't. I'm all about looking stupid at this point.
54:12 Speaker 03 Right?
54:12 Travis Kelce? I don't, I like.
54:13 Speaker 03 Stupid or the better.
54:14 Travis Kelce? Yeah, dressing up on Halloween to be cool is like, I don't know, I have more fun with it when it's like, oh, I can laugh at this costume because of how obnoxious or how silly it is.
54:23 Speaker 03 Anything nostalgic to the eighties or nineties, if you're in your thirties, is gonna hit really well. Um, Andy Reid is always a good option. I don't know. I mean, there's a lot of different uh, ways you can go about it. I will say, for me, I'm, my costumes now are just essentially what my kids wanna wear. Like, I'm Kristoff this year, just because that's what Ellie and Y and Benny, they're all going as Elsa, so.
54:49 Travis Kelce? Nice.
54:50 Speaker 03 I'm Kristoff. I, I don't wanna really reveal Kylie's costume because that'll get revealed later this week, but it's fantastic. So I feel like in your thirties, once you start having kids, like, you don't even get to choose anymore. You just are.
55:01 Travis Kelce? Whatever the kids.
55:02 Speaker 03 You get lumped in with your kids.
55:03 Travis Kelce? Nice. I'm a big sucker for just going up to the, the Halloween store and just getting the stupidest fucking costume that's already. It's, I forget the uh, the brand, but they just come in like those like orange like.
55:17 Speaker 03 I know exactly what you're talking about. Yep, yep.
55:19 Travis Kelce? And just go get the fucking dumbest one.
55:21 Speaker 03 So yeah, just go, just go be dumb. There's few things where it's socially acceptable to be dumb and Halloween is one of them, so go be dumb. What's this next one? Best childhood costume? Sounds pretty self-explanatory.
55:36 Speaker 05 Hey, Jason, hey, Travis. My name is Haley and I am also from Ohio. My question is, what were you guys's?
55:46 Speaker 05 Halloween costumes growing up. Did your mom ever make you guys Halloween costumes? Or were you guys the ones that bought your Halloween costumes online? And if so, what was the favorite Halloween costume you guys had as a kid? Thanks, guys.
56:05 Travis Kelce? Well, first off, when we were kids, there was no online shopping.
56:08 Speaker 03 I was about to say, we knew, when we were trick or treating, like dial-up had just started.
56:15 Speaker 03 We weren't fucking buying shit online.
56:17 Travis Kelce? Yeah, I feel like we always went to like a Halloween store, a costume store and grabbed something.
56:23 Speaker 03 I feel like one time mom did the like sheet, cut the eyes out ghost thing. I, I don't know why that rings a bell. But yeah, usually we went, we had like the costume store or the Halloween store. One year we had like the fake blood and stuff like that and we were using that.
56:39 Travis Kelce? That was fun.
56:39 Speaker 03 We were Ninja Turtles the one year. What was our best costumes? Power Rangers. We were Super Mario Brothers in high school, but that was not for trick or treating.
56:48 Travis Kelce? I was a football player and a baseball player, probably 90% of the time.
56:53 Speaker 03 We stopped trick or treating very young. Dad did not condone teenagers trick or treating in our house. Once you, once you hit the teens.
57:02 Travis Kelce? Doesn't mean I wasn't out and about being a fucking little shithead, but.
57:05 Speaker 03 That's fair. That's fair. Well, we would hide in the leaves and scare everybody.
57:08 Travis Kelce? Yeah, scaring everybody, jumping out of the leaves. That was, uh, that was my dad's, uh, version of teenage Halloween fun.
57:15 Speaker 03 Dad just likes scaring people.
57:17 Travis Kelce? He does.
57:17 Speaker 03 He was a big like, and as a current dad, I concur, like scaring kids is important.
57:26 Speaker 03 I firmly believe that.
57:27 Travis Kelce? Making a kid cry.
57:29 Speaker 03 I mean, it doesn't have to cry. It could just be like a little huh. Like I think it's a, it's a good thing to do these days. Uh, mom apparently has sent in some childhood pics. Did you know this Travis?
57:39 Travis Kelce? Of course I didn't.
57:40 Speaker 03 Yeah, me neither. And I saw this in the rundown and Brandon and Jake would not give me the lowdown. So yeah, let's take a look at some of these. Oh my God. Look at that pirate. That's a fucking.
57:53 Travis Kelce? I was a football or baseball player.
57:55 Speaker 03 Yeah. Bernie Cozart over there. What else have we got?
57:59 Travis Kelce? Ooh.
58:00 Speaker 03 Is that you?
58:00 Travis Kelce? No, that's you, dude. What?
58:02 Speaker 03 That's me?
58:03 Travis Kelce? That's you.
58:04 Speaker 03 The fuck am I? What is this? I mean, it's obviously. No, it's gotta be some type of.
58:10 Travis Kelce? Some sort.
58:11 Speaker 03 It's gotta be a dragon, right? That's a fire breathing dragon.
58:14 Travis Kelce? That makes sense. That makes sense.
58:15 Speaker 03 It's got like the long. Tailish thing. Nice.
58:20 Travis Kelce? Batman. Yep. That makes sense.
58:22 Speaker 03 Look at those guys.
58:25 Speaker 03 I don't have anything cool to do as Batman. All right. That was not a Halloween costume. It was like pajamas. We didn't go trick or treating in there, right?
58:32 Travis Kelce? Yeah, I think we were just chilling.
58:36 Travis Kelce? I don't know. I think mom would probably have.
58:39 Speaker 03 She would have known?
58:40 Travis Kelce? Well, I guess I think the socks, no socks.
58:43 Speaker 03 Yeah.
58:44 Travis Kelce? On, just say those were, those were our pajamas, but.
58:46 Speaker 03 Right. Bernie, again, multiple years.
58:50 Travis Kelce? Yeah, I think that's just.
58:52 Speaker 03 I just want to wear my helmet.
58:53 Travis Kelce? Every day. Yeah. My thing that was like my everyday get home from preschool and.
58:58 Travis Kelce? Throw my football uniform on.
58:59 Speaker 03 All right. What do we got next? Ah, this is the older one from high school. Super Mario Brothers. You can see one brother is way more into it than the other brother.
59:09 Travis Kelce? Yeah, well, one brother got forced to be.
59:15 Speaker 03 You look great, though.
59:16 Travis Kelce? Dude, you're crushing it. You're fucking crushing it. I think I ended up winning that fucking Halloween costume.
59:24 Speaker 03 What do you mean?
59:24 Travis Kelce? Contest.
59:26 Speaker 03 What contest?
59:26 Travis Kelce? I think, could you made us dress up so that we could enter the contest, the Halloween contest?
59:31 Speaker 03 What cost? I don't remember this. There was a contest?
59:33 Travis Kelce? Halloween contest? Yes.
59:35 Speaker 03 I don't remember that.
59:36 Travis Kelce? So you made, you're, in your mind, you just made me dress up as Luigi.
59:40 Speaker 03 I thought we were just having fun.
59:41 Travis Kelce? Just having fun. All right.
59:42 Speaker 03 Well, congratulations on winning the Halloween costume contest of high tie.
59:47 Travis Kelce? That you made me dress up as.
59:49 Speaker 03 I just knew you had potential, so.
59:51 Travis Kelce? Yeah, I was going around screaming Luigi and fucking jumping off walls and shit. You were. You were just posing like this.
59:57 Speaker 03 What is Luigi's? Cause Mario was, it's me, Mario. I would just say that all day. What were you saying is Luigi? What's Luigi's catchphrase?
1:00:10 Speaker 03 No wonder you fucking won.
1:00:18 Speaker 03 Just nothing but out of out of P is.

1:01:43 Speaker 03 You know, I can't rap.
1:01:44 Travis Kelce? Yeah, me neither.
1:01:44 Speaker 03 That'd be cool.
1:01:45 Travis Kelce? Man, what a skill.
1:01:47 Speaker 03 There's no way free people that are freestyling are truly doing that on the spot. That's all like pre-planned.
1:01:51 Travis Kelce? Freestyling, no.
1:01:52 Speaker 03 I don't believe that.
1:01:53 Travis Kelce? What?
1:01:55 Speaker 03 No, those guys have put those words in their head and they've thought about these concepts and then when they go.
1:02:00 Travis Kelce? Crazy at freestyling, Eric Berry. I'm telling you, it was one of the most impressive things ever. He would sit on the plane.
1:02:06 Speaker 03 Because he's sitting at night thinking about this stuff. And then he's like, oh, next time I go freestyle, I'm just gonna unleash.
1:02:12 Travis Kelce? On the spot, talk about people's like shoes and outfits.
1:02:17 Speaker 03 Yeah, but he's already. Pre-plan these bits, Travis. I'm telling you.
1:02:20 Travis Kelce? No way.
1:02:21 Speaker 03 I understand how the human brain works. He's got these things pre-planned and then he's like, okay, this is the shoe thing. It's in this catalog. This is if the guy's got a big forehead, it's in that catalog.
1:02:32 Travis Kelce? I'm a psych major, a minor, alright. I had a, I had a minor.
1:02:35 Speaker 03 You did not have a minor in psychology, did you?
1:02:37 Travis Kelce? Yes.
1:02:38 Speaker 03 Alright, what's the id?
1:02:40 Travis Kelce? The id?
1:02:41 Speaker 03 The id.
1:02:42 Travis Kelce? The id is the, the, the, I don't fucking know.
1:02:47 Speaker 03 I don't remember either. I just remember there's the id, the ego, and there's another third one. The superego or something like that? Yeah, yeah.
1:02:54 Travis Kelce? You're funny as fuck today.
