That's a lot of genres. That's way more than a lot of people for sure. My top genre is Dewap. It's going to tell you your average age. Age. Don't take this personally. Oh my god. What is it? That's embarrassing. What is it? 83, 83, nice. That's pretty good. Welcome back to New Heights. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of OneDry show, brought to you by Yeti. And that's not me. We're talking about the Yeti coolers, the Yeti drinks, the Yeti everything. New Heights cream. Ooh, I love that. Where your host, I'm Travis Kelsey. He's my big brother, Jason Kelsey. I had a Cleveland Heights. Oh, hi. Oh, shout out to the Heights. And shout out to the Cincinnati Bearcats headed to the Liberty Bowl versus the Naval Academy. Little fashion, Liberty Bowl, Birmingham, Alabama. Is it still in Birmingham, Alabama? I don't think so. No, it's moved. The Liberty Bowl for me was in Memphis, Tennessee. No, that was the Belk Bowl. That was in Charlotte. Really? Yeah. So Liberty Bowl moved to Memphis. It was at UAB Stadium in Birmingham, Alabama when I played in it. There you go. Right? Or am I thinking of a different bowl? I think you're thinking of Papa John's bowl. I am thinking of the Papa John's dot com bowl. All right, sorry, Liberty Bowl. Let's go, cats, maybe finishes. You're off right. Subscribe on YouTube. One, three plus wherever you get your podcasts and follow the show on all social media. Add new Heights show with one S for fun clips throughout the week. Jason, please. This is where you tell everyone what we're going to talk about. Well, 92 percenters. We've got a incredibly depressing football portion of this great episode. We're going to recap the Chief Saxons game as well as the loss of the Eagles and over time to the chargers. But we will get into a lot more NFL discussions that will hopefully be more joyous. We're going to get into all that in a minute. But first, we're always going to start with a little bit of that new news. New news is brought to you by American Express. Biggest piece of news is Travis has been the Chiefs nominee for Walter Peyton Man of the Year. This is your third nominee. How many times have you been nominated for? Three or four. Three or four. In particular, you're nominated for your work with Operation Breakthrough. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Walter Peyton Man of the Year, it's kind of all encompassing. It's turned into one of the greatest honors you can receive in the NFL. A lot of it comes down to charitable work and community work. But it also comes down to how you are as a player and what the values and everything that you kind of exude as an NFL player to your teammates and city. And it's named after the late great Walter Peyton, his family is still involved in giving out this award. So it is an incredible honor to be nominated for it. Travis, what are your thoughts? Obviously, you've been nominated before. Yeah, I mean, I was nominated last year. Maybe not the year before that, but a year or two prior to that one. Obviously, you don't do the work and you're not who you are to the community and to the teams for the award. You're not doing this in hopes that you one day could be it. So I just do it because I love seeing these kids have something that they wouldn't have otherwise. I love doing it to support what operation breakthrough means to this community. And I love doing things with my foundational team because my foundation team's amazing. And they find ways to give back to the community and they find events that bring the community closer together. And it's just an honor. And it's obviously representing a whole lot more people than just myself. I think the Chiefs Community Outreach is second to absolutely none. And that shows in how many Walter Payton Man of the years we've had in Kansas City. And the tradition that Lamar Hunt embedded in this organization back in the '60s and '70s of how he was going to make sure that the fans that are showing up in the community that's showing up is going to see us give back to them for how much they show up for us on Sundays, man. And it's just an absolute honor to represent this organization, to represent my foundation. And even more so to represent operation breakthrough and all the kids and all the amazing things that they're doing over there. Congratulations, Travis. I mean, listen, I think you do so much for that community in Kansas City. And really, I mean, filled out the community, you've been involved with. It was Autism Challenge. You do so much surrounding the NFL and the landscape and supporting the fans and different communities that the teams are in. So back in Cleveland. Oh, yeah. Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy well done. Thank you, man. And thank you to all the 92%ers who shared their Spotify wrapped because we were the number one sports podcast on Spotify of the 2025 year. Obviously, a lot of familiar faces up here. For the podcast is up here. Yep, absolutely. Boston with the boys made the list. We got our God Pat McAfee part of my take. Lots of friends on there that are all well deserving of it. But thank you guys for posting all that. And tuning in weekend week out. We also heard from a bunch of 92%ers who got their YouTube recap, but wanted to specifically shout out Rachel, who was in our top 0.1% of viewers. That's such a pretty crazy. Rachel said, safe to say, I look forward to Wednesdays. As she posted a picture of her literally being top 0.1% of viewers. That's awesome. Shout out to Rachel. Well done. It was awesome seeing a bunch of people posting, you know, where they're at in the percentages and how many minutes. I don't know if that was on YouTube or if that was a Spotify thing, but the end of the year recaps. Did you look at your Spotify? I don't know how to do it. Where's it at? You go to Spotify and I'm pretty sure it's just free. Free Spotify ad. It's fine with them. I'm cool with it. Do it, is it in? Where's it at? It should be in home. Oh, it's time for your 2025 wrapped. All right, we're ready for you. For you, swipe up. You listened 13,000, 38 minutes. 254 genres. That's a lot of genres. That's way more than a lot of people, for sure. My top genre is Dewap. Oh, you're seeing me and you are. What was your, it's going to tell you your average age. Ooh. So Dewap is more because I sing a lot of Dewap songs to Finney. For some reason, she stops crying when I sing, like Fleetwoods and some of the Dewap music from back in the day. Okay. Then obviously, I'm always been an outlaw country guy. Since pop, big synth pop, children's music. Yep, this is all adding up. Beach music. All right, here we go. Age. Don't take this personally. Like, God. What is it? That's embarrassing. What is it? 83, 83, nice. That's pretty good. That's pretty good. I'm older than dad. That was 68. Yeah, I was run right underneath that. That's hilarious. Nice. Well, it's always fun to see what your average age is compared to your Spotify. And the songs you're listening to. That wraps up new news brought to you by American Express. So let's get to some fan mentions. You got a fun basket we've mentioned from EA W7354. The official way to hold garagers. The old double hand. I just want to be like, that's not a basket weaving style technique, right? The basket we even hand over hand or is that basket weaving? I didn't write basket weave in here. If you ever held a beer by two hands, I don't think I've ever done that. Not crossed like that. I kind of want to try it. Ball security. Beer security. Beer security. What other than that? That sounds like a TV show. By the way, I do want to point out. Outside of the Dewwap album, because I play that every night when I'm singing a finny. Second album. Tay Tay's. You know it. That was number one for me. I don't have any. Can you sing it to me? Well, I can't sing Tay Song. Dad, you're really off pitch here. You'll sing along. They're catchy. They are. Alrighty. Both topics to wrap up week 14. Let's start with Sunday night football. Chiefs 10 Texans 20. Drav, I'll let you take it away, brother. Yeah, man. It's, uh, it's been a tough fucking go around for the past two days. Yeah. It's just, uh, you put in all this fucking work and hopes that it pays off. And right now, just for whatever fucking reason, man. It's little things. It's, I don't know, discipline. I feel like I've always had the answers in years past. And this year, it's just, I just can't find them. And I keep thinking if I show up to work and I put in the work and I, fix the issues, uh, through my practice habits and through, uh, through perfecting the game plan and my fundamentals and what I'm being taught and go out there and try and play my ass off for my guys. Next to me, it's, it's all going to come together like it has in years past. And this year's just not, man. Um, not to say that I won't keep doing that. It's all that I can do. It's all that I, I'm going to always show up to work and fucking give it my all. And if there's a game to be played, I'm going to fucking make it the most important game of the world. Yeah. Um, but obviously looking at the, the playoffs. This is a tough reality to be in, um, especially with, um, I don't know. It's just how, how we've always found a way in years past. So it's, uh, it's a shitty fucking feeling, especially dropping the fucking ball late in the game like that when we were on our last fucking chance to make something shake. It's a shitty feeling, man. I hear you. You put in all this work to, you know, be there for your guys. And I just, I just wasn't that, I wasn't that point out. I think that that catch would have been pretty damn impressive catch. That was a tough one to, I mean, you're running all the way over here and you're trying to reach back. I know you always hold yourself to a high standard, but that would have been a tough catch. I'll say this again. It's another game that was right there, right? Like, and we knew going into it, the Texans had a great defense. We knew chiefs had a great defense, and it was just going to come down to the team that made the fewest mistakes. And at the end of the day, with the drop passes and things at the end of the game, even throughout the game, there are multiple times where you guys have the opportunities. And it's just like, it's just been a very weird year for the chiefs. And you guys have been in, I mean, what is it seven straight? This was the first time in what nine seasons you guys aren't going to win the AFC West or whatever it is since 2015, you know, I think sometimes the ball just doesn't fall your way. And you guys have had the epitome of that this year. Yeah, I don't know. I know it's frustrating. I know that, you know, it's the competitive you are and how badly you want it, how badly Pat wants it. The work you guys put in. So I feel for you for sure. And I know that that game in particular was a frustrating one because of what it meant. But it's frustrating, but we got four games left and it'll put my fucking heart on the line for these guys because they deserve that. She's kingdom you guys deserve that. And we can keep this thing fucking rolling, man. What is the mindset you guys just one game at a time? Just got the charges this week. Just yeah, I mean, obviously we we don't necessarily control our own destiny at this point. Like I said, we need some things to happen outside of us winning all our games. So that's all you can do, man. You got the charges coming in and you just get after them. I just feel like if you guys get the 10 and 7 this year in the AFC that that'll sneak in at a wild card. But one game at a time. Yep. Four games left. Yeah, what do the chiefs have to get fixed the most? What do you guys are most focused on? Critical situations towards the end of the game showing up. I mean, obviously drop passes. Yeah, drops for the things that stood out to me watching it. Miss blocks and key situations that could, you know, spark big runs. Spark big plays and score in touchdowns. You got to score touchdowns in this league, man. And field goals aren't going to are going to cut it. I think it's just details on on all phases, even though I thought our our defense fucking showed up and played a hell of a game against the Texas this week. Chris Jones, my god, he was showing his heart, man. That's for sure. Spags was dialing up all these blitzes. I mean, it was it was a fun game to watch from the defense for sure. They were they were doing everything they could. And shout out to the Texans, man, they made plays when they needed to. They got good players over there. I mean, that defense is freaking it's the best in the NFL right now. Yeah. Dmico Ryan's. It's kind of dude. Every single person on that staff I played with him, Philly. It's kind of amazing considering how they all have like. And not a lot of them weren't even there together. Like Dmico's a head coach, Matt Berks, a DC. Corey Unlin's in the back field. Billy Davis who was the DC when Chip was here is the linebackers coach. I mean, it's whenever I'm using him, I got this like former Philadelphia right here. But yeah, they're rolling on defense, man. Those guys are doing a great job coaching those guys up and they have great players. I do got a shout out. Esa Poli. Play good, man. The biggest thing I was worried about was the offensive line. And he played against who I think is one of the best players in the NFL and has been for a while. The Neal Hunter. And he held his own more than held his own. No, he really came in. He came in and yeah, I was extremely proud of him. Happy as hell for him. And when I tell you, man, you want to talk about a guy that was just fucking happy to play ball, man. Yeah. Out there, high energy, no matter what the situation was, seemed like he was ready to fucking get after it. That's awesome. A guy like that who's just kind of itching at the bit to be able to get out there and show the world what he's got, man. The big athletic guy, man. And happy as hell for him. Just wish we could have got the win for him. We got the charges this week, obviously coming off a win against the Eagles. We're about to get into, man. A team we know, a team that knows us. And they're rolling too. Our balls got them playing their best fucking ball. And Herbert's playing lights out. And yeah, we're going to have our hands full, man. Let's go ahead and get to this Eagles Chargers game, though. On a little Monday night out there in Los Angeles. Jason, you kind of summed up the game by tweeting FML. If you want to tell everybody why you tweeted that. It was just frustrating game to watch as an Eagles fan. We just like continually kept kicking ourselves in the foot. And I mean, it was, you know, turnovers, penalty down low, takes us out of off the two yard line. I mean, it was just one thing after the other. Very frustrating game. It felt like there was more to be had. It did feel like we were starting to click. And then every second we got into the red zone. Turn over every single time we got a chance to get a touchdown. We get knocked back and kick a field goal. We would miss a few. We missed a field goal. I mean, it's just like not too much different than the Chiefs game. And it's like, man, we had our opportunities more than our opportunities. And we did a lot of good, really good things in the game against a really good team. We're against really good defense. Like the Chargers defense is one of the better units in the NFL. Statistically and like personal wise, one of my favorite defensive players in the league and Derwin James over there. Love watching that guy every chance I get to see him play. So yeah, just a really frustrating game. And it ended in a very frustrating fashion, where we're putting together a great drive, playing outstanding ball and over time, driving the length of the field. And then the interception to lose just, it was just a gut-wrenching way to end that one. And you know, we needed to get some momentum back. And unfortunately, a very sloppy game again leaves the Eagles in another week of frustration. And listen, if we take care of business and don't have these mistakes, it's going in a different direction. And we're rolling. So it was a frustrating, frustrating game. You mentioned that last turnover that kind of sealed it. But eight combined turnovers. It was not six and a second quarter alone. I don't even know like, like what? It's insane. There's a few bustes. I mean, on the one play, obviously the interception from Jalen, they pick it up. We force a fumble. Jalen recovers it. And then while he's still trying to get control of that thing, he fumbles it. It was just a comedy of turnovers all game long. There were a lot of what the fuck plays. And Hertz actually became the first player since 1978 with two turnovers on the same play. Which tells you how rare that shit is when it happens. But six in the second quarter alone is fucking ridiculous. Yeah, it was, it was a horrendous game of ball security, which is not said Jalen. I know the last couple of weeks have been rough form. This is one of the things he's done well. His whole career is taking care of the football. And it's unfortunately been two out of, I guess, character or not common games from him and from our team that have really cost us. I mean, this offense has been so stagnant in the three-in-outs. And it's like struggled to get anything going the last couple weeks. You know, this team is, well, the defense is great. The defense was phenomenal. This game outside of the Bears game, and maybe one other one against the Giants, they've been great all season. Offensively, they're looking for who they are. It looks like they're looking for that identity, right? And there's so many good pieces. You know, all these plays are great individual plays for this guy, this guy, this guy, and this guy. And it's just, you know, who are we? And what are we going to be about? And throughout Jalen's tenure, and I think what lends itself to the best for this team, is, man, we got to attack the line of scrimmage with one of the best runner backs in the game and just repeatedly stick to that. And then take our shots down the field. It doesn't need to be this like kind of crazy outlandish thing. And I know everybody's talking about the scheme and what not. There were plays in this game to be had. There were opportunities. Guys were open. I thought that quite frankly, we had a really good game offensively. Yeah, I thought you guys did. Outside of the turnovers, it could create a thing. I think that there's some positive things moving forward. First of all, the defense is still playing out of their mind. But listen, if that run game you keep going like that, you know, you got stretch working. You can do a lot of things off the stretch. You got you got split zone attacking the line of scrimmage. I know everybody talks about under center versus gun. I really just think about it like just build a wall. Get running off the ball and make those guys stop that. To in order to stop that, you got to you got to commit to the line of scrimmage. And then that opens things behind them. And you know, they're they're a good team as well. Jesse Miner did some things that do us off on plays here and there. That's going to happen. Yeah, I thought it was an overall, there's a lot of positive takeaway from the game. And a game that looks really negative because of the extremely bad plays that happened. There were some good things, in my opinion, on that tape. I thought the guys ran block better than they have. And in a while, I thought the tight ends did a pretty darn good job in this game for the most part. And yeah, I mean, I'm characteristic game for Jalen. He cleans that up. Full confidence he will. And the defense keeps playing like this. I know that's a lot of ifs and buts and canes and nuts. But, you know, yeah. I hear you coach Kales. Does Gettin Lane Johnson back soon help? Yes, of course. That's why is that even a question. Hopefully you guys can get him back. Hopefully Land is not too banged up. Then he can keep keep things rolling. I know he got a little banged up and came out for a quick second. Yeah, if he had a calf injury, I think that's what it was like. But he came back in late, I think. Yeah, yeah. Maybe just keep him moving to positivity rabbit. So is it this has been a thing with offensive line for a while now? No, this is the first time it showed up. I don't even I thought it was landing because it feels like landing since a humor landing said it wasn't him. I have no idea where this fucking rabbit came from. There you go. It showed up today and the offensive lineman stressed to me that they are not sad. They just wanted good vibes, bunny. This is from Ashley Sullivan. I would assume a reporter out there in the Philly area. At the end of the week, this positivity rabbit showed up in the locker room. And obviously, this is kind of like somebody trying to... It's a lot of negativity in Philadelphia. And before the game for an eight and four team that's first in their division, and certainly looking like they're going to be in the playoffs, I think the team was trying to make a statement like, hey, we're we're all in on this together. We feel like we're still the real deal. Yeah. From being honest, I don't really like the rabbit. I think it's kind of like it's a little hokey, but listen, if they like it, who the fuck... I don't really give a fuck that much, but you got to go back it up. You go out there and you turn the wall over a bunch and largely, you're the reason that you lose the game. Rabbit's got a fucking... He carrots. Get the fuck out of here, rabbit. Get the fuck out of here, here you go. Bad vibe. They didn't work. What did they say about it? So it showed up today and the offensive lines stressed to me. They are not sad. They just wanted a good vibes bunny. So you're asking Brandon, should they ditch the rabbit or double down with more rabbits? Just put more rabbits in. Which way do you go with this? You're saying get rid of it? I think they tried it. It didn't work. You got to ditch the rabbit. I mean, the whole thing's got to go. It's got to go. Yeah, I kind of agree with you. Or do you double down? Do you add different? Do you do put different holiday mascots in there? Do you get a leprechaun? Do you get... I mean, the more rabbits is funny. I don't know how much you want to joke around about just... At this point, a season going in the wrong direction right now. If I'm losing, not winning, we got to get rid of that shit. That's my... Honestly, if I'm being very brutally honest, I thought it was a surprise to see the rabbit. It's a sign of just too much joking around or something that I think is like... Actually, you should be really f*cking pissed off at the way you're playing. And it's okay to be positive, but this is something you do when everything's rolling in your f*cking performing well. You don't do antics like this when you've sh*t the bed for the last couple of weeks. Yeah, I hear you. Well, we got a Monster's Fun Day football. It's a Jason Kelsey monster's aim. It is. This is pretty cool. What is this? ESPN does this Altcast. This is at least a second year or two. Last year, they did it as Simpson's characters, but they use somehow they do it with like AI or some animation program or whatever, but it mimics the game happening. I think Dan Arlovsky and Meena Kimes and I forget who else is on the call. Maybe Jeremy Fowler, I don't know. But there's a whole 'nother like broadcast happening. Yeah. And they did it this year in the Monster's Ink Style and Swag and I did the pre-game show for it. Nice. And we were monsters for the pre-game show of the Altcast. And I mean, I just love the beard. That's great. And then look at the eyebrows. They made sure nothing's thick. That's not Jason Kelsey unless you throw some thick ass eyebrows on there. Dude, this would be fun to just wear this as my outfit though. Just get like a bonfire with a... You're insane. That's pretty good though. The Eagles got the Raiders at home next week though. They do. I know the Raiders had a rough season this year. Obviously they've already fired Chip Kelly offense coordinator. Hasn't gone their way, but it's still the NFL man. Any team can win any given Sunday and the Eagles need to get some momentum going. They have to go out there and perform. Yeah. I really feel strongly. They need to figure out what the identity is that they want to do. And I think they were closer to doing that this last week. I think with something's working, I would love to see them just continue to press that. You know what I mean? It feels like a lot of the times they do something that works and then they're on to the next thing that they want to... They went into the game wanting to do. It's like, hold on, hey, if we're doing this really good. If Sequan's rolling with these types of plays, make them defend that. If they can't show that they can defend that, bro, keep taking it. Some of the spread things are interesting. I thought they adjusted well with empty where, you know, when they do those like zero, they know you're in five-man protection. So they just read the guards, make you hot, and then you got to get rid of the ball. If you want to live in empty, you need to move the back around a lot. Put the back in the backfield, motion them out. Put the back in the backfield, motion them out, bring them back in. Jet a tight end across the formation, act like the tight end is jetting, and then he stops and then you do like a six-man protection with the tight... Like, you got to at least mess with the numbers. So it's not predictable every time you line up at empty. It's going to be five-man protection. Otherwise, they're just going to sit flat-footed, make you hot, and rally to the ball. But that's a whole 'nother fucking thing. Big game this week, obviously, Raiders in the link. They need to go out and put forward a good game. I don't care what the Raiders record is. At this point, the Eagles need to show that they can be a consistent, good football team, limit the penalties, run the ball well, control the line of scrimmage, and take your shots when they're there. It doesn't need to be this air raid high-scoring attack with the way this defense is playing. Grind it out. Eventually, the run game gets going the more and more that you pounded on these guys. It really sucks with how good the defense played this last week that we weren't able to get a victory for them. And really, with how they played the whole season, we can be this type of offense. I really believe that. I hear you. They just got to put it all together, man. There we go. So name of the game, baby. Alrighty, thanks to our presenting sponsor. That's right. Yeti! Fuck yeah, I love these things. Who doesn't love a good Yeti? Check these things out, dude. I do a podcast with one, and I drink out of one. Check these things out right here. These NFL ramblers that Yeti sent us. Got the Eagles one here. I also got a New Heights green one. Looks like a little bit of a dark green. It's a good green. We also have a Super Bowl champions one right here. Boom, with a little thermos top. We have a Eagles rambler, Chiefs one, and the Force green one that we just showed you, which does match the show colors perfectly. It's a good green. I like the green Yeti. Products are the best. That's right. And you can use them for any drink, hot or cold. It keeps it at exactly the temperature that you want. Obviously, the Yetis are all made from quality materials. They're dishwasher, say, BPA-free. And they're basically indestructible. I don't know how. I don't think I've ever seen one destroyed. Maybe dented a little bit. But even that seems like it's pretty hard to do. You guys are made of stainless steel with double wall insulation. And there's dozens of product options to choose from to accommodate your beverage of choice. That's right. Their NFL collection has ramblers, coolers, mugs, flasks, and even beverage bucket. How about that? I like a good beverage bucket. And they're available with any NFL team logo. Not just our eagle and cheese colors. They even have a Jets one for Jets Jake. Jets Jake, why don't you show up? You're Yeti. Look at this. Ah, get out of here. And Yeti has released new products just the time for the hot days. Like the ultra durable travel straw mug. And for the first time ever, a shake-or-bottle with whisk-free technology. It's the perfect gift for anyone who expects the best shop team colors. A new arrival is at Yeti.com. Yeti. Built.

All right, now let's get to the rest of the league. Breaking news. Colts have signed a 44-year-old Philip Rivers. That's right, the old gunslayer from the past like three decades. Yeah, he's coming back out, baby. He just got signed to their practice squad. Hasn't played in the NFL since 2020, but is getting reunited with Shane Stuykin, who was the charger staff and interim offensive coordinator in 2019 with Philip. And potentially, first grandfather to play in the NFL. That's crazy. That's nuts. His oldest kid is older than their star tie to an Tyler Warren, which is pretty staggering fact right there. Yep. Also older than his head coach, Stuykin. That's right, he's in his offensive coordinator. Again, Philip is 44. Jim Mark Cooter. Yeah, and Jim Bob is 41 and Shane is 40. He is also older than 12 current NFL head coaches. And I bet you he can still go out there and sling it. God it, man. He's a semi-finalist for the Hall of Fame this year. Because he's eligible to go in the Hall of Fame. That's how long he's been out of the NFL. It is 25. So it's a five year removed guy at 44 who was a grandfather coming out of retirement to join in NFL team sounds absolutely fucking bonkers. But I want to see it as a fan. I cannot wait to watch a grandpa go out there and sling this fucking thing. I hope he is starting this week. I want to see it so bad. What does this do for his like Hall of Fame? Does it now it's another five? It resets it? Yep. Wow. I know from Shane's time. Because he's a glove to get in. There's no, there's no question. He's in. The only thing he doesn't have is a cerebral. But statistically and the competitor he was and how he played the game, there's not even a question. 100%. Shane Stuykin from when he was in Philadelphia. Frank Reich. Nick Sireani. Knowing all these people that were with Philip. At some point in his career. I don't know that I've ever heard of another of coaches speak higher of another player. They look up to this guy like he is in a realm of his own. Not just as a player like mentally the way he operates the way he puts the team positions. I've just heard nothing but like the most incredible things about him as a teammate and player. Yeah. I want to see it happen. I mean, I'm just hoping it holds up if he can stay healthy. This is like Bert Reynolds coming out in the longest yard. How old was Brett Farve when he was like still like trying to hold on to it? Like 40 40. He was still he was 45 was he? That's was just hard to imagine. And I know he's got enough kids that he knows. He's not tired like three times. He was number five years. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. There wasn't like a pro long period where he was out of it for a long time. No, 100%. I think a maybe a year was like the most he set out. It's hard to imagine a guy that hasn't played football in five years. Is 44 is still going to be able to physically do it. But I'm not down Phillip Rivers. I'm just not going to do it. Four games. Four games. I'm going to run at the run on the playoffs if they make it. No, man, it's a tour at all. I know he's still been active. He's got like 20 kids, including grandkids. So he's still running around playing with them, suckers. So he's he's still been doing something. Oh, yeah. I'm pretty sure his son is actually like one of the biggest quarterback crews in the country. And to clarify Brett never, he'd never stop playing. He would retire then when you play the next year. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or say that he's, yeah, whatever he did. What was that movie where the guy retired? It becomes a teacher and then it comes back in and throws the baseball. Kevin Koster. Is it a rookie? I think so. That's what this reminds me of. Are you thinking of the Dennis Quaid movie? The rookie Dennis Quaid. That's it. Yeah. Is it rookie? Yes, that is correct. It is cool. This is instantly become one of the most exciting things I can't wait to potentially see. This got released on air on Monday night. I mean, it's just it's just practice squad right now. We don't know if he's actually. You don't add a 44-year-old quarterback to the practice squad. Without the idea that this dude's going to play as a football. I am so looking forward to what this looks like. I hope he freaking balls out. I really do. I hope he's so you don't think they go with the young kid. I think he's hurt too. They're third string guy. I think it's hurt. Why would it be practice squad just so that they can figure out? They're trying to make sure he's ready to go. He did the workout, did the physical. Now it's like, hey, we got him on the practice squad. We don't have to cut somebody. Let's see how he looks in practice. Who went in the game then? When Jones got hurt? When Jones? I think it was the other kid, but I think he got hurt too. It's whole time we've just been asking each other questions we don't know. The guy who went in for down Jones. Riley Leonard got injured as well. That's what I thought. Now they potentially could be under their fourth string guy. And that's when you make a call to grandpa. Hey, grandpa, can you say the day when you have to rely on the fourth string. You go out and get a 44 year old. It's a lot of force. It's a force up. It's a force up. But then it follows up. James Winston made his NFL analyst debut during the buy. And it might just be his electric on TV as he's in the huddle. Let's take a look at this video. It says Liam Cohen has been getting recommendations on how to pronounce Duval. Well, the right way he would do what would you, how would you, how would you pronounce it, James? Duval. What's your Broadway one? Yes, the New York got to me, but I got the jack you got the jack. That's right. I mean, that's one of the most entertaining human beings in the world. It doesn't matter what he's doing. He can literally just be walking down the street and talking to civilians about anything. Yeah. And it's going to be fucking hilarious. Everything he does with the camera on him is, is fucking pure comedy. He's a charismatic motherfucker. No question about it. All right, let's wrap some stamps in the week here. Stab in the week is brought to you by Amazon. Amazon, how about it? Let's see this six-year-old that delivers 10 stiff arms clip. Jesus! How big is this kid's head, by the way? Look, his helmet looks bigger than everybody else's. Oh my god! This is why they made weight limits in the leagues. Yeah, this is why he's learned a lot. They had to get rid of the weight limits because it was, oh my lord! Like everybody else looks like little giants. This is spike. Like there's a real life version of spike. Yeah! This kid gets it the worst. He gets it there and then he's not even up able to tackle it. The pro move right there. They don't even let him get up. These aren't even stiff arms. They're just like, just like mushits. They're just like throwing them with one arm. Good lord! I'll give the stamp of the week. This is amazing. I'll go with that one right there. Hard to think there's going to be a better clip than that. I might just beat it right here. Wyoming students built a beer snake to honor Josh Allen at his jersey retirement. What is a beer snake? You've never seen a beer snake? No. At a ballgame? No. It's when you put all the cups. Yeah, all the beers that have been drink. And then you just see how long you can collect. It's pretty dope. It's pretty fucking sweet. It was going all the way up to the second level. That's fucking epic. It's awesome. Yeah. That's a lot of fucking beers consumed and I'm proud of you Wyoming. That's really what the stamp of the week is. Not for stacking the cups. For drinking the beer, it's necessary to be able to stack the cups. Exactly. You guys have a good energy in that game. I guarantee it. Stamp of the week. Well done, Trevor. That does it for stab of the week brought to you by Amazon. Keep those beer snakes rolling, baby. And all you big little kids. You keep stiff arm and everyone. All right. Thank you to our partner, Draft Kings. And I don't know if you guys knew this. But Jake and Brandon attended the Draft Kings tailgate at the chiefs game over the weekend to celebrate them being alive in Missouri. That's right. We were there. Jake Brandon. How was it? How did good, boys? It was sick. The tailgate was sick. I saw some really good videos of Brandon. He looked like he was definitely having fun. Yeah, I had a few. I had a few funds. I had a few funds. New funds. I saw you insult my dancing, which is great. Yep. Well, I mean, I wasn't insulting. I was more like coaching. I think it's, you know, it felt like, you know, I didn't mean to just need a little bit more pep in the step. They just needed some more energy. It was very cold, Jason. I was very cold and very tired. It's a good reason to have more energy. The tailgate was also like a family event. So it wasn't necessarily the best place for hip thrust, which is I think what you were getting at. I had to keep it PG. No, you're surroundings. No, you're not ready for this. They're ready for draft things. They're not ready for my hip thrust. Everybody at the KC tailgate was great. So all the night, two percenters that came up to us. Lovely to meet you. Honestly, the cheese fans are the best. They're super nice. They're the nicest people to plan it. They really are. Like, there's nothing like. They're always so pumped for everything we do out there. So super happy. It must have been. Alrighty. Well, no one does game day like Draft King Sportsbook.

Mom and dad, uh, mom and mom. Dad and dad, whatever, parents. Are you about to spend five hours in the car with your beloved kids this holiday season? Drive the old granny's house? I'm set to scene, I'm picturing. Screaming, fighting. Back to back hours of the K-Pop demon hunter sound track on repeat. Well, when your ears start to bleed, I have the perfect thing to keep you from rolling out of that moving vehicle. Something for the whole family. He's filled with laughs. He's filled with rage. The OG green grunt. Give it up for me. James Austin Johnson has the Grinch. And like any insufferable influencer these days, I'm bringing my crew of lesser talented friends along for the ride with a list guests like Gronk, Art Hamel, and the Jonas Brothers, whoever they are. There's a little bit of something for everyone. Listen to "Tis the Grinch Holiday Podcast" wherever you get your podcasts. Voice mails, no dumb questions. Let's get to them. All right, do the, uh, do the forged parent signatures. Hi, Jason and Travis. This is Stephanie from Minnesota. Hey. As we're coming into the holiday season, I got a text from my teenage daughter. With my forged signature on a permission form the other day. And I'm just calling to ask, is either of you ever forged any of your parents' signatures on anything school related? And how that went over with your parents? I definitely forged my mom's signature on my band practice sheets in high school. So let me know if you did any of that. Thanks. Travis, I'll let you take this away because I know you at least I have done some foreign dreams. I've done this on countless. I literally cannot count how many times I've forged my parents' signature. Let's start off. Well, the one that stands out to me the most was actually one of the coolest opportunities that I ever had in middle school in my first couple. I was either in eighth grade or ninth grade. And the Atlanta Braves were hosting a showcase in Lakewood, Ohio. And I was over my friend's house. And my friend's older brother was going to the showcase because he was out of high school. And he just wanted to like give one last chance of like getting in front of some scouts. And they were holding an open trial. But you had to be either 18 or older. You had to have your parents' signature. Signature is saying that this is my guard, that I'm the guardian or on the parent guardian of the kid. And I just said, "Fuck it!" I'm just going to write a Kelsey's name down here. I knew his number. Just put down his address down there. And sure enough, I went out there and got on the mound and like was like pumping like mid-80s. And they were like, "How old are you?" I'm like 13, 12, 13. And they were like, "I'm sorry, what?" Your kid, your six foot and your 13 and your pumping 80s. And one of the scouts there just so happened to be from Cleveland Highs' name is Reggie Sanders. Oh, nice. Yeah. And he pulled me over. He was like, "Is this your parents here?" And I was like, "No, they're not here." And it was like, I'm pretty sure it was illegal for them to like talk to kids that and have something like that. So yeah, no. But I got a big head on the phone call real quick and got told, "Don't fucking do that ever again." But countless amount of field trips. To initiative right there. Yeah, and also in middle school, I used to. Forge big head signature on the report cards because the report cards you had to like-- Yeah, any scene? Yeah, that had to be seen by the parents and everything. And I'm like, "I'm not fucking showing that. This you be." He's not gonna be happy. I'm just gonna be happy. Yeah, he'll just figure out when I'm ineligible. I never forged a signature, I don't think. But I did try to forge his voice. No, well, you know, this one real well. Yeah, that one's already been told on the podcast, I think. That's right. Mrs. Clark, our good friend Harry Clark's mom was in charge of the attendance at Cleveland Heights High School. Same Patrick's Day. I wanted to go to the parade downtown. And I called the Cleveland Heights High School. I don't even know if she was in charge of attendance. She was just like, she was working the office and when Jason called the office, she was the one that answered. She's like, "I might have been it." Jason, who is this? Travis? No, Jason? I said, "Hey, Mrs. Clark, this is Ed Kelsey. Jason's sick. He's not gonna be able to come into school today." And she said, "Who is this? This is not Ed Kelsey." Travis, is this you? Oh, shit. So yeah, I got to call from dad pretty quickly after that. Too good. What's the next one? Hi, it's Eva from Lenton, PA. If you could describe each other's personalities as any drink, what would it be? I'll go first. I already know it. Mine? Yeah. Don't fucking... You already know where I'm going. Kind of three. One. No, I don't. I don't know where you're going. You know exactly what I'm about to say. What? Probably good advertisements for them. We both say drink garage beer. One, two, three. Four loco. Four loco. Four loco. Just the energy. Just praying that juice. Yeah, no, I get it. Yeah, I mean, I drink accelerators with tequila, so... It's essentially the same thing. What is Jason? If I'm a four loco, you're like a... You're like a jagger bomb. Oh my god. You're a fucking jagger bomb. I just had my first jagger bomb in a long time. Wasn't even a jagger bomb. It was just a shot of jagger and Wisconsin. For some reason, they drink it at the freaking... The supper club's up there. As good as you remember? It's exactly what I remembered. And it's probably one that I probably won't have for another. I'm not a big liquor drinker. Everybody else must have bought shots. I'm like, dude, if I drink this beer, I will not get to a point that I... Well, I'm going to be upset about. If I drink these shots, this whole thing could go sideways in a second. If I start just doing shots of people, I'm not interested. Give me my garage beer. I'll be happy. All right, I'll take some shots. How often should you wash the towel after you use a shower? It starts to smell, really. It starts to get crusty and hard. Then it's time to replace it. I mean, you're just washing your clean. So it's like... That being said, I use a clean towel every time. But I mean, I understand if like... You use a clean towel? You only use a towel once? Yeah. Wow. It's very wasteful, Travis. It uses up a lot of... Is it? Yeah. Using a lot of energy to wash these towels. I also have a lot of towels. I fucking went out and got a fucking towel. Don't you read the disclaimers at the hotels? If you reuse the towel, it's better for the environment. I got to say, some of these environmental things, I am getting to the point that... Give me a hot one. Do something ruined you earlier. What is it? Paper straws. Paper straws are so fucking annoying. Don't find them. If I get a paper straw, I'll just take the lid and the straw off. And I'll just drink the drink. Have you ever adapted to the metal straws? Yeah. I don't like the way that feels either. Just give me the fucking plastic straw. All right, that wraps up another episode of New Heights.
