Counting Down the Best 92 'New Heights' Moments of All Time | Part 4

28:44So I answer it. Jason is on the internet and he's like, Hey man, am I doing too much? Nope. You're perfect. No, no. I said, you did it. I, I truthful conversation. I said, you did that exact right time. Let's get that shirt back on. It's a little close game. Let's not jinx it. Let's get that shirt back on. And I pitched him this and he was rightfully non-receptive to it. I said, if they win though, pants off. Yeah. you were i tried i was like let's amp it up if they didn't pants off and they went no this is an all-time moment and one of the more absurd things that you know there's like moments where you get really excited on a sunday or monday because you're about to talk on tuesday about stuff this is probably one of the most excited i've been to be like for sure so what's what was that about to get the confirmation that because we were like oh yeah like they're all hanging out they're in the suite taylor's in the suite like all that makes sense but to get the confirmation that they had never met before.

29:41That was a really good wrinkle to the story that I actually didn't know until he told it. I was like, oh, wait, you did that? That's day one? You ought to set the tone. Keeping it moving to number nine. Man, season two. Stand out Travis moment here. This is Jeans for Jason. Let's move on to some Kelsey premiere. Hey! How was it, brother? It was actually pretty cool. Really enjoyed it. We had a picture of you on the green carpet, not the red carpet. You really got dressed up. I was going to have jeans on, but Kylie. Kylie what? Kylie was running late. Ice came straight from football. Kylie was going to bring the jeans.

30:16Kylie was late. Why didn't Jason bring jeans for Jason? Because I was at football and I needed the jeans for after football. And I'm not going to wear jeans all day. That's just not, doesn't sound fun. And I'm realizing now I probably can't blame Kylie for this. Anyways, so yeah, I wore shorts and sandals. She was too busy putting jeans on the three girls. Yeah, she was too busy getting the entire family situated with the babysitter and then getting herself ready and making sure her parents are with her. I can't just see you pulling up. You don't have my jeans? I'm going to look like an idiot.

30:53Gosh, so true. So true. This is so great because I was following along with Jason and I was like, yeah, okay, got it, got it, got it. And then as soon as Travis said, why, I was like, why didn't you pack your own bag? Oh yeah, this makes no fucking sense. Oh, Kylie was getting the four children ready. She didn't have time to pack your clothes. Oh, when you put it that way. Yeah, this makes no fucking sense. We still get a lot of like blank for Jason comments on everything. I think Kylie does too. There's still a lot of like, oh, who did blank for Jason? I mean, jeans for Jason is an incredible turn of phrase.

31:33Yes. Why didn't Jason bring jeans for Jason is an incredible turn of phrase that it just bounces around your brain. Also, shout out, because it wasn't me, but I've since co-opted it. The first person to comment, why didn't Kylie bring jeans for Kylie? Whenever someone says that the kids all look like Jason and they spell jeans. That's great. Yes. That's a great joke. Great joke. Great job. Love that. We love that. And keep commenting that. All right. Coming in at number eight. I mean, there are so many moments from this night, but I think, you know, the pan of them dancing and then the reaction to it.

32:14This is the guys talking about the post Vegas Super Bowl celebration from Rue 99 on Club 92. How electric was the Super Bowl after party? Nobody parties better than Jason Kelsey. It was electric. Having my big brother around. Dude. It really didn't start getting to the next level until I found that luchador mask. Because initially when I first got there, you were trying to get me to go up on the stage with you. And I'm like, nah, I'm going to be over here. This is your guy's time. Which I respect. There's something about finding that luchador mask that really just transformed the night. It really did.

32:50For everyone. It was insane. The belly dance where it was just like the bobbing up and down. Just going with the motion. Letting the belly take control. The one video of them showing me and Taylor and then panning to you and Marshmello. It's a very strong dichotomy of just two different worlds. Two people in love and enjoying the moment together. Panning to a complete Neanderthal who is no longer connected with modern day society. It looked like you and Marshmello were a tag team, dude. Found the mask on the dance floor. Stop it. The first after-party spot. Did you at least just give it a quick rinse under the sink?

33:31No. Where was I going to rinse it off, Travis? In the bathroom. You see a luchador mask. You don't ask questions. I for sure thought I was getting pink eye. There's no chance I thought I was getting out of that mask without having pink eye. This was, god damn it. Every time I watch him dance and clap, he's kind of in rhythm, kind of not. But he's making it up. It's fine. Uh, this is one of those things where, you know, we follow along everywhere online as things are happening. And this is one of those nights where things just kept popping up on my timeline of Jason doing things where I was, I was like, I didn't expect any of this.

34:12I don't know where he got a luchador mask. I don't know how he got in the DJ booth. I don't know how he got home. I don't know. So we are having as much fun as you guys are keeping track of this as it's happening. And it is, again, one of those ones where I cannot wait to talk to you whenever you come around to speak about like, hey, man, what did you get up to in Vegas? We also, I mean, you and I were in Vegas for this Super Bowl. Shout out Vegas Super Bowl. Awesome Super Bowl. Sorry, Niners fans. It was very cool for this Super Bowl that like the entire pod was united behind rooting for the Chiefs and they pulled it off.

34:44That was. Why? Have we ever had an issue come up when we were split or something? Has anything come up? Do we want to declare Vegas as so far the best Super Bowl city we've been to? Yes. I think it might win. I really love New Orleans, but Vegas just kind of was set up a little easier. I love New Orleans, though. But I'd rather go to New Orleans when it's not Super Bowl. Vegas was by far my favorite Super Bowl city. A, there was so much shit to do everywhere. But navigating the city during Super Bowl week was like incredibly easy for how much of a circus. It's a straight line. And there's hotels for everybody.

35:20All right. Number seven. This is maybe the best guest story ever told on the show. It is, again, from the Pat Mahomes episode. This is Travis and Pat's moment they became best friends. What were your honest first impressions of Travis? And vice versa. How did this bromance come together? Should I tell them the story, dude? That's your call, man. That's my call. It's a bad look on me. So, obviously, I get here at the beginning of the year, and I'm still a rookie, so I'm just kind of going through the motions trying to figure out the best way to kind of fit in. And I think the first time that I thought, I was like, me and Travis, we're going to be connected throughout this my entire career, was you remember when we had the fourth preseason game, we used to have a little off time.

36:10You had like a little weekend. You played on Thursday. Well, you know, Coach Reed always would give you the walkthrough the day before the actual walkthrough. And me being a kid fresh out of college, I had a couple buddies that were rookies with me, and they were like, let's go out. It's Saturday, man. Let's go out. We'll have the walkthrough on Sunday. We're done with preseason. Just got back from St. Joe's. We had a great preseason. So we go out, and Coach Reed had told us the next day at like 8 o 'clock, We're going to have a 15-minute walkthrough done. That's all you have on Sunday. So I set eight alarms on my phone.

36:42I have them all. I go out with the rookies. Of course, I get out there, and I see old Travis Kelsey out at the same spot as I'm at. And I'm like, hey, listen. Travis's like, come on. All y 'all come over here to the table. Let's do this. Let's have a great time. So I have a great night. Get home. Have all my alarms set. I made sure of that. Go to sleep. Wake up. Not to an alarm. uh wake up look at the tv and i see 8 15 on my tv screen on the resting thing i didn't put my phone in the charger so my phone died and i've done that rookie mistake too many times and uh so drive to so obviously drove to the facility extremely fast um dangerous you can't you can't overlook that initial that initial feeling of understanding that you're not going to make it there on time is the most like just drops no no no no no no this isn't happening this is am i dreaming and then immediately you just start telling yourself how uselessly you're stupid how could you do this you suck you're an idiot you're so unaccountable man you can't get it together man and then uh to complete the story i i get there and i get to the facility and we're they're already in the walkthrough obviously already going and i walk up to the door and And like how the Chiefs facility is built, the defense does it on the first side of the field and the offense is on the other side.

38:06And I was like, there is no chance. I'm walking through the defense late to get to the offensive side of the walkthrough. I ain't going out there. Meanwhile, we're playing the Super Bowl champs, the Patriots, like on opening night that week. And so I sit in the locker room and I'm sitting there shaking my head and they call me up to the office. And I get like the max fine, all this different stuff, feel like an idiot. and i just i thought it was so weird that the first question they asked me was were you a travis and i was like no no not at all why would you even ask that and uh long story short uh travis was also late he got there five minutes before me so i'm sitting here dude i'm coming into the building like fuck man i can't believe i fucking screwed this up again man because i'm i'm not going to say i'm notorious for late but i screwed up a few times before and it's been late so i'm in my head about it i'm like man coach reed is gonna kill me man i can't even look at this guy in his eyes i'm gonna should be looking down at the ground while he tells me i'm the worst teammate ever man and i walk into the building and they're like were you with pat last night where's pat at i was just like

39:17i'm not alone let's go man at that point and i knew we were teammates man i knew that guy was gonna have super bowl i will say since then though i believe me and travis have never been late again so uh we have been on the straight and arrow since then so i i won't be late again i don't know about travis i can't i don't think i don't think coach reed will stand me ever being late again so i have to i'd make sure i'd get my ass up and going early man i don't have a lot to say about this other than it's it's like extremely relatable extreme relatable well my phone's always charged you've never thought your phone was plugged into the charger nope liar i'm dead serious i'm dead i do not i've never had this problem if my phone doesn't make in the charger I know I've had a decent evening, but typically those are not right before I have to get up at an alarm time.

40:15Fair. No, this is a great story. And, you know, the Pat-Travis relationship is always one I like just hearing anytime they talk about hanging out with each other. It is very funny. And, like, I do think getting in trouble with your boys is how you bond the best. Oh, for sure. I think that's the number one way to bond is like, okay, we went through the trenches together of being 15 minutes late for practice. You can tell that they're genuinely like best friends off the field, even like without having heard this story. But hearing how it all started is a very cool peek behind the curtain into how those guys.

40:47Them describing having to walk through like the stretching lines is like I have been late to things. I'm late often, but I've never been late in front of like an entire NFL team. I'm sure that sucks. All right, coming in at number six, this clip may not be everyone's favorite, but it's important for us, and it is from the first ever episode we've ever recorded. This is Jason and Travis arguing which Super Bowl win was better, Super Bowl 52 or Super Bowl 54. Which Super Bowl ring is more epic, Eagles Super Bowl 52 or Chiefs Super Bowl 54? The Eagles was just, everybody saw it coming. Everybody saw it coming.

41:26Nobody saw it coming. It was the first team to ever win a Super Bowl when Vegas thought they were going to lose. We were getting points every game. I was trailing every single game of the playoffs by at least 21 points. It was crazy. Every single game. I lied. Only like two. Super Bowl 52 was an embodiment of the city of Philadelphia. It was like a team that was possessed by its inhabitants. An underdog city came out of nowhere and won a fucking Super Bowl for the first time in its existence. this isn't even fucking close i feel embarrassed that we're even talking about this you beat tom brady in the super bowl that's the only head up you got on this man listen travis you're gonna go in the hall of fame you have more pro bowls you have more all pros let me have the super bowl okay just stop all right you're better looking let me have one goddamn thing please you mother so uh my little behind the scenes story of this is the first ever clip we ever posted from new heights it is isn't it it is the first ever clip yeah we fired it off at like nine o 'clock p.m pacific like not the most socially optimized content strategy well that whole episode just sort of showed up online and yes we like we're like should we tell people we were like we have to tell people it's out and we just who do we tell we posted the clip somewhat like in the middle of the night midnight east coast or whatever it was the worst time to release a podcast ever and i woke up the next morning and the clip had three million views and i was like holy shit that was the first real momentum gaining uh clip from the show or moment from the show i remember putting together that first like rundown and it really was that first round was like 12 questions 12 questions it was straight up just 12 questions and i we put the super bowl thing in there being like i don't know Let's see if they fight about it.

43:15And there we go. That whole first episode was like, you know, in Jurassic Park when the Velociraptors like testing the fences. I felt like that's all we were doing. It was just like, do they fight about this? This is interesting. Is this good? Is this good? Is this good? Again, I think I said this in a previous episode where, you know, I wanted the first clip to be the bull testicles was voted against to have it be this one, which makes more sense in theory as football show. Understand, understood, still not wrong. Maybe I'll repost the bull testicle clip soon. Yeah. Launch that one back. Let's get those.

43:39Let's get those numbers on the bull testicles clip. People prove me right. No, this was a great moment from that first episode, and it's very funny to think about. Yeah, remember when we just only had two Super Bowls talk about? That is nuts. We couldn't do it. We had to get this question out of the way quick. We didn't know. We didn't know. We didn't know. We didn't know. And wait, we concluded it was Eagles-Patriots, right? I think so. Although, I don't know. Travis might still be like, it was the Chiefs first Super Bowl win in 50-something years. Eagles-Patriots is arguably one of the top five Super Bowls of the last 20 years.

44:13Are we about to have this same argument? Oh, wow. Look how good this question is. What a good question. Good job. I'm so jealous that you get to introduce clip number five. Man, number five. So I'll tee it up quick. You'll know what it is. This is from season one. This is Travis Kelsey's attempt to name all the NFL head coaches based on a photograph. Dude, that might be the segment. we show players this picture and they have to name each coach in this picture what do you think is you over under that players are going to be able to name half of them half you go let's let's give it let's give it a travis kelsey try right now i can i can wait i'm i'm the worst with names but i can tell you team okay all right starting on the left chargers standing up sitting down standing up.

45:02Standing up. Chargers. Giants. Yep. San Fran. The fuck is that guy?

45:12I don't know. The next two. Steelers.

45:20Is that Steelers Tampa? Is that Tampa? It's Tampa, yep. Detroit. No chance you're getting this one. Zero percent chance. No clue. uh jets uh after jets nothing i don't even i've never seen that man in my fucking life uh this is so good i mean three in a row i have no idea who those dudes are everybody between the jets those are offensive coordinator shane steighe for the coles come on travis um who's who's next to dougie p who the fuck you should know that one you should definitely know that one domico who's the other one you should know him because he's arguably your biggest rival oh that is yeah that's cincy that's not he's he's a dog what's his name what's his name

46:16that's uh that's coach oh my god this is so good i'm telling i told you i was terrible with names I don't even know. You're bad with names. Zach Taylor. I'm the worst. Zach Taylor. I knew it was a T. Fuck. I'm sorry, Coach Taylor. Are we doing the bottom? Do you want to keep doing this? This is fun. All right. Are you going back to the left? Are you starting on the right? I'm starting right and going back left. Starting with Matt Foley? Cowboy. Matt Foley. Again, never seen this fucking guy in my life. That's my team. That's a quid. You don't know either of the two Eagles coaches that got head coaching jobs.

46:57Oh, my God. This is so good. I love what's happening right now. Miami. God damn it.

47:12There's no way, man. There's no way that guy coaches in the NFL, man. Then P. Carroll, Harbaugh. Yeah. Obviously, you know, the next fuck. Rivera, QBs, Peacock. QBs. Quarterback play. Broncos country, let's ride. Gordon Bombay. We got the Packers. And then just no clue. And then Bills.

47:42I'm not going to lie. I don't know how much better I could do. This started because every year they put out the stupid coach's photograph. And it's always like they make them line up and stare at the sun and put out this photo. And they always look uncomfortable and weird. And like it's – they never do a flattering photo of them. I don't know why. The NFL loves to do this. They love to watch the coaches. It's been sort of like an online topic of discussion. But I have no idea if this was ever going to be like funny to anybody else. And then when we presented it to them and we started sort of like, you know, doing little jokes about outfits and placement and whatever.

48:10And once Jason queued in to Travis doesn't know what these guys are, it just turned into like, wait, how many can you name? And sometimes in this show, you lay out something you think is going to go one way and it turns into a whole other thing. I think it has like recently become like everyone in NFL media tries to do their thing with the coach's photo. Yes. And in this first season, we were trying to figure out like, what's our thing going to be like? Like, how are we going to join this coach's photo discussion? It turns out, name the people in the photo. Name who they are. Who's the way to go.

48:45We get asked every year to do it again. And I don't think we've done, we haven't done enough. You can't duplicate this. It's tough. It's, I will say, we've tried it. We've tried to duplicate the magic of name that coach. It doesn't work. I'm sorry to say, it just has not worked. And we kind of like have moved on from the bit. But that first one was absolute magic. Genuinely one of my favorite moments from recording. I don't think we get that moment unless Jason has the great idea to just turn it into a game. Like that, I will give him all the credit. That is entirely his idea to be like, hey, wait, how many can you name?

49:16Listen, sometimes bullying your brother is the best way to make a podcast. What's your favorite moment from this moment? Because I have one in particular. I go, I don't know. My favorite is when Travis goes, oh man, that's coach. That's coach. When Jason finally reveals that's the Bengals, he's like, do you know who that's his name? It's like, oh yeah, man, that's coach. No, it's a great, it's a great bit. Great bit. Sorry, we can't do it ever again. It was, if you were there, you're there. If you, if you've not seen it, please, I would highly recommend going back and watching it. All right. Coming in at number four, we had so many moments from the first Kylie episode on this list, but I think this one was our favorite in particular because of her genuine shock at finding out that this happened to both Kelsey brothers.

50:00This is Kylie talking to both guys about getting kicked out of preschool. speaking of our dad um has jason taught them how to fight yet do the girls know how to how to fight the galaxy way no no no i i will say you haven't taught them how to kick someone in the balls i have not taught him any fighting techniques yet i will try to keep them from getting kicked out of preschool the way i was oh man we both got kicked out of preschool jason tell them what you did i'll tell everybody what i did well me and a kid were playing at a cafeteria table and for some reason we were stabbing each other with sporks for some reason we thought it was like funny and we were just like hitting each other with sporks and i hit him hard enough right in the forehead and uh i just remember the next day his dad had him like under his arm and he had like three little spork dots or four four little spork dots and uh they were kicking me out and they said did you do this and i said yeah you penetrated his skull aka they were playing jason didn't like how they were playing so he stabbed him in the face with a fork that's basically what happened to which dad's reply was why weren't you watching him this is your fault who gave him a spork and unleashed him exactly why the hell would you give that kid a spork and let him just eat his lunch without supervising him yeah and meanwhile i got kicked out of preschool because during playtime we were playing checkers and I was winning because I don't fucking lose at checkers and if you win you stay on right like that's the thing it's kind of hard to win Travis if you never move your back roll

51:41yeah so I kept winning I kept winning and the teacher told me you know Travis you have to share and I'm like that's not how it rolls dad always taught us if you win you stay on winner stays on yeah and And she said, no, you have to share. And I said, no, I don't. And through the chair that I was sitting in at her. So is that a real story? This is a real story. How did I not remember that? Through a chair and a teacher. You've both been kicked out of preschool. Yeah. Good luck. This is what you married into, Kai. To be fair, if a teacher called me and said, your kid sporked another kid in the head, I would then address that with my child, not the teacher.

52:19Listen, this is here's the difference. It was the 90s. You know, there was a. girl in the same preschool I got kicked out of that rammed my head into an air conditioning unit and I had a bump on my head. You probably deserved it. Probably, but my dad didn't try and get that kid kicked out of school. He just was like, hey, I'm part of growing up. Sometimes you run into an air conditioner. I'm going to be honest. All of a sudden, the sport kid's dad was like, I'm not having this. Your son was partaking in the sporking as well. He just didn't win. Yeah. The thing I'm most nervous about for our daughters.

52:53Now we won't learn because because you're removing the best competition. He'll be getting sporked for the rest of his life. This kid's never going to learn how to spork properly. The thing I'm most concerned about with Wyatt going to preschool is the phone call that I'm going to get when she has taught all of the other kids at her school the words that she's heard at home. The only thing I can rest easier knowing is that Jason curses publicly on a regular basis and no one's going to suspect her found mouth mother. Nice. That first Kylie episode was, I think when we were recording it, we were sending each other faces Kylie was making back and forth because she is so funny.

53:39If you watch her in this episode, she cannot help but react to the absurdity that is Jason and Travis. and the sporking story is so good. Both of you? You've both been kicked out of preschool? Yeah, good luck. The other thing too is the fact that spork became a verb is just, and everyone knows what it means. It's incredible. I also think, shout out to Cartuna Radio. I think this was the first clip that we ever got animated for this show, which just gave it new life, which is awesome. The Crowley episodes are always the best. All right, Brendan, number three. Ooh, number three. I mean, I feel like a lot of you have been waiting for this moment.

54:18I feel like a lot of people have been like, where's it going to be? Where's it going to go? What are they going to say it? Top three. Number three, top three moment, first episode of season four. This is the Taylor album reveal. Let's get to the part of this show that I think is what everybody is going to be talking about. Do I get to say it? Do I get to say the two words? Yes. Well, I think we were going to try and... First of all, you can do whatever you want, Taylor. We're not going to review. This is very much whatever. I want to work within the framework of the podcast. I'm a fan of the podcast.

54:53Typically, we would allow the guest to say new news. Yeah, yeah, I want to do it. But with Zach Brown, we had another bit that we did. I don't know if you saw. I don't know if we can get back to this. I forgot everything that Zach taught me already. All right, let's just let the expert take care of this. Okay, I just wanted to scream it. Taylor, go. Just Travis style. Do you want me to start it or echo it? I think Taylor has a little bit of new news. New news. Yay. She's a natural. She's a natural. It was as fun as I thought it was going to be. Oh, it was everything. It was everything and more.

55:28We did talk about Easter eggs earlier. Yeah. And at the very last Ares tour, you didn't take the lift. You did not. You went upstage and exited through an orange door. Why did you change the ending? so that's i'm happy you mentioned that i'm say jason did you see that fans did you see that the fans noticed this because i was pretty proud of them for noticing that they know i just yeah i was surfing the internet and saw something yeah so that was i was pretty happy that they noticed that i was like trained him well um so basically every night of the air is everything happens with the reason taylor's a planner she's not just a random orange door everywhere just eggs what's happening there?

56:09Why is why and why? Anyway, so I would leave the stage every night going down the elevator lift. That's how every single era's show ended except for one except for the last one, where I exited through a door, an orange door to be specific. And that actually was an Easter egg. Basically, the reason why I chose to exit that way is because I kind of wanted to give a little subliminal hint to the fans that I may be leaving the Ares tour era, but I was also entering a new era. A new era. So I wanted to show you something. Okay. What do we got? We got a briefcase. Yep. Mint green with TS on it. Yep.

56:57What's in it? This is my brand new album. Oh!

57:07We got TS-12, baby. This is my brand new album. It's called The Life of a Showgirl. Love it. It was something that I was working on while I was in Europe on the Ares tour. So while you were on tour. I was working. I would be on tour. How on earth did she do this on the tour is still blowing my mind. I just love it. I just love it a lot. I love music. I would be playing shows. I'd do like three shows in a row. I'd have three days off. I'd fly to Sweden. go back to the tour and actually like working on this i was physically exhausted at this point in the tour but i was so mentally stimulated and so excited to be creating and this is and literally living the life of a showgirl i was i was she wrote it that's why i said that's why i called it that nailed it so um do you want to see the back cover i would love to see all of it yes The back cover is where we find the 12 tracks for my 12.

58:0312 tracks. Bangers. Okay. So we got all. What are they? So we got track one, The Fate of Ophelia. Okay. Track two. Go ahead. I was going to say, do you know what Fate of Ophelia is? Do you want to talk about Hamlet? I just. Hamlet? I don't want to get Jason all riled up. Yeah. So we can just go through the track. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Track two, Elizabeth Taylor. Okay. You know who Elizabeth Taylor is? You better. I'm just kind of following. Just kind of following along. Okay. All right. All right. Track three, Opalite. Opalite. You know what Opalite is, Jason? Can we stop asking me? Okay, I'm done.

58:41I'm asking Jason things. He's like, I hate this. I know a lot about this album and I'm excited. Track four, Father Figure. Track five, Eldest Daughter. Track six, Ruin the Friendship. Track seven, actually romantic. Actually romantic? Track eight, wish list with two dollar signs as the S's. Just let me point that out. There you go. Flourish. Track nine, wood. Wood. Nice. Track ten, canceled, but it's in all caps with an exclamation point at the end. That's a banger. Track eleven, honey. Honey. And can you do drum roll? Last track, track 12. The title track, The Life of a Showgirl featuring Sabrina Carpenter.

59:41Sabrina Carpenter!

59:46That's awesome. Incredible. She had that briefcase around all day, but we didn't actually see it until like - We were not allowed. See the inside until she revealed it. Man, I tried. So it was a reveal for all of us. It was a genuine reaction from all of us. It's still just an absurd sentence to say out loud. Remember when you helped reveal Taylor Swift's album? And you go, yeah, it's just, it's absurd. It's absurd. It's absurd. I did not know that that was going to be a part of that episode. That was like a later sort of addition. They didn't trust me to keep that secret for that long. So they told me, they told all of us pretty quick before we recorded.

1:00:19Oh, by the way. And we were like, oh, damn, you guys are smart. We would have definitely fucked up and probably said this at some point. Again, I cannot thank her enough for sharing that with us or allowing us to be a part of it. And I will give this little tidbit. That was the first episode we recorded in Travis's new setup. And I've never been more stressed than like we set up the day before and stuff kind of worked. And it was like, we had that moment where they, where somebody goes, oh, I don't know if we've got internet in that room yet. And I went, you what now? so there was there was an absurd amount of flop sweat and fear radiating off my body as we recorded that because we just really had never tested that room before and i half expected none of it to work but it worked just long enough for us to get you know maybe the coolest episode we'll probably ever record i would remove maybe from that sentence hey i always think she might come back right yes there that's the caveat i guess you always gotta think that we could do something bigger who knows no the the tailored episode is probably like hang it in the rafters at this point hang it we'll make a banner for it hang it's a guinness world record episode by the way sure is we never got a plaque for it but they sure love tweeting about it uh you didn't i i did you have a plaque no i'm just fucking with you see this is bullshit no this is where it's bullshit it was like guinness world records loves to like tweet and mention everybody's name but when it comes down to giving us the fucking hardware they certainly didn't send anything to me anyways i'm not bitter about it.

1:01:43They do not. And I'm using this platform to call them out. Guinness World Records for the longest time it takes to receive a Guinness World Record, Brandon. Me, personally. Alright. Moving on to clip number two. A clip I am sure like clip number three, many people have been waiting for. And also, clip number three doesn't happen without clip number two. This is a lowly, unsurprising SeatGeek ad read from season one. Today's episode is sponsored by SeatGeek. Alright, now. The NFL is almost here. We're in training camp, and we got a special discount on tickets thanks to our friends at SeatGeek. Tickets here.

1:02:21Get your tickets here. With over 28 million downloads, SeatGeek is the number one rated ticketing app. How about that? You best believe it, motherfuckers. There are more than 70 ,000 events every single day on SeatGeek. I say that every single time we read this ad, and I do not understand how many times. It can't be real, right? But it is. We wouldn't be able to say it if it wasn't real. And this includes concerts, sports, festivals, and much, much more. You have the NFL, the MLB. You got Taylor Swift. Drake's concert's going on right now. I heard that's a banger. Luke Combs, if you like the country music.

1:02:56And a bunch of just shit. Just events and just shit to go to where you can enjoy yourself. Speaking of Taylor Swift, I know you went to the Taylor Swift concert. How was it? Yeah. Well, I was disappointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings. So I was a little butthurt. I didn't get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her. You made her a bracelet? Yeah. Out of what? If you're up on Taylor Swift concerts, there are friendship bracelets. And I received a bunch of them being there, but I wanted to give Taylor Swift one with my number on it.

1:03:31Not right now. Ooh. Your number's in 87 or your phone number? You know which one. so she doesn't meet anybody and she doesn't or at least she didn't want to meet me so i um i took it personal but it was an unbelievable show and honestly she showed out i've only seen arrowhead filled like that for chiefs games without much excitement and um yeah everybody was dressed in pink and purple going crazy for it was wild it was a wild show well she she probably just hasn't gotten over the strip bowl yet she's a big eagles fan so maybe she just made something up and just didn't want to talk to you damn it i mean you guys knew it's coming somewhere in the top five you've had to know it's going to be somewhere in the top five if not number one but i feel like we've talked this one to death i don't know this is this is it was a surprising moment that happened and we all got real excited about it and we're like is he kidding turns out he wasn't and uh i will say probably should have noticed this like when the two guys met in the super but this i think has since become the clearest example of how you can just say shit and manifest it on this show and it will come true again which is awesome i've said that to everybody who's been on i've said it to everybody who works on the show if you say it on air i mean i think there was one point we were talking about going to space where we got an email from you can go to space i won't say who but we they were like hey you want to go and i said not on your rockets um i don't know that we can keep that it's absurd that that was the part of the last episode of season one and we just sort of like threw that out there.

1:05:03It was like the last thing we recorded. It was the last or second to last thing. We always do ads at the end. That's a little behind the scenes tidbit there. But yeah, didn't quite know where that was all going to end up. And I think it ended up going pretty well for Travis. Yeah. Anyone have an update on? I don't have any updates. You know, rooting for those kids. All right. It is time. The number one moment. The number one moment. Should I do a little? In New Heights history. perfect it sounds great i'm glad we planned this i'm sure our editor is gonna add in a drum roll but i'm just gonna do this jason and travis sharing their feelings post kelsey bull we're gonna get to what we said to each other uh because i was misquoted by saying that i said fuck you congratulations after the game which is not what i said i was like i don't remember that one i was i was i was a loss uh lost at words and uh you didn't you didn't really say much but i know you didn't say fuck you yeah i mean i didn't say much because i wanted you to go celebrate with your team you know i knew that you were going to feel bad for me and i didn't want that i didn't want that to be uh how you remembered that so i just kind of made an emphasis to uh go hug you tell you i love you congratulations and go be with your teammates because i didn't want to be the guy that was going to bring down that moment for you.

1:06:26Yeah. Well, there wasn't much you could do about me feeling like that. You could have told me, fuck you, and I would have still felt the exact same way that I felt with you just telling me to go celebrate with your teammates. That wasn't an easy feeling, and I was just definitely lost at words. But I did say one thing, and I told you it was the funnest year of my life. Yeah. It was a great time, and I agree. It was an awesome year. the podcast we've never talked more throughout any NFL season um yeah I mean it was that's what that's what it was all about for me man to to see this script or however you want to call it uh play out like it did um and to be set in schedule every single week to talk it over with you man that was um that was something I could have never drew up uh I could have never you know expected it to be this damn fun man and uh it really did blindside me and um the crazy part is is that i would never be playing this damn game if it wasn't for you stop no it is it's the truth man i followed your footsteps into it i actually tried to play football uh when you started playing football so you started playing hockey i started playing hockey you started playing football i started playing football um yeah there was pretty much every sport except for basketball like that.

1:07:49You started playing lacrosse. I started playing lacrosse. So, yeah, I've kind of just been following your footsteps throughout this whole gig. And to go through everything leading up to this moment or leading up to this year and then having the year that we had and then meeting you at the mountaintop, brother, it was like we were on top of that thing together, man. Yeah. And it was cool to break the barrier of two brothers going against each other. I don't think the story would have been the same. I don't think the drama would have been the same. I don't think people enjoy our family the same this week that they did if it's any other way.

1:08:29Well, you know, for some reason when I saw you, I wasn't that emotional. I was really, really happy for you. I think I was still caught up in the game, though, and I just wanted to try to not bring you down. So I just wanted to say congratulations and was really happy for you, but still caught up in myself a little bit. And, you know, and I think I just tried to get away from you as quick as possible so you can go celebrate with your teammates. But the moment I saw mom is when I got really emotional because, man, it was so awesome.

1:09:16it was

1:09:28not right now yeah oh man fuck it was awesome for you know she was on top of the world for a week she was the heavyweight champ man

1:09:46she was on top of it and she shined the whole time man that was that was the coolest part mom you absolutely killed it dad you've been killing it yep and uh it was just so cool man to see uh you know her get to celebrating that with us yeah and uh it was an awesome moment

1:10:08you know so just so happy for her and so happy that you know she got her moment dad got his so yeah I was the only ironically you know you lose the Super Bowl

1:10:29and you're crying after the game and they're not tears of sadness you know they're tears of joy

1:10:42so still sucked but you know so it makes you the best brother so it makes you the best you know proud of my team and my guys and you know sorry Philadelphia that we couldn't fucking get it done but uh you know happy for you guys and uh you know that's the way it goes sometimes the idea that in our first season as a show we ended up with this scenario where our two hosts play each other in the super bowl is the most absurd storyline you could ever write having to record that episode afterwards was odd in a way because you just knew somebody had just had the worst weekend of their life and somebody had one of the best i do think this clip, this moment, that episode is a real testament to, I think, what makes this show unique, which makes Jason and Travis so special, is that the way that they loved how much this is about their family and how much it meant to them and game results aside was still such a special moment for everybody involved.

1:11:45When you whittle the show down to what it is at its core, this is a moment that I think sort of encapsulates exactly what it is at all times. We didn't know exactly what they were going to say coming off the Super Bowl and the fact that they were just so vulnerable and led us all into like the, like, you don't get to see what that's like, let alone like after losing a Superbowl, after winning a Superbowl, it just had never happened. Brothers had never played against each other as active players in a Superbowl. And for them to like, let us into everything that they were experiencing over the two weeks, uh, and just give us like actual raw human emotions insights.

1:12:26And, you know, it was just an incredible moment. And I think, like you said, perfectly encapsulates like what the show is about. It's about these two brothers who are at the peak of their careers, all pro NFL caliber players. But at the end of the day, it's like any sibling relationship that you could imagine. And I think this, this was the perfect clip to sort of top off our list of top 92 moments it is certainly the one that i don't think you know in the list of things like we can do other funny moments we can have a lot of great guests we're never doing that again nope nor is listen i'll fucking hang it out there no nobody else is either like that is it's one of the most absurd storylines we've ever been involved in and i think in that first season when we sort of all i don't remember when we first started like noticing that we were kind of i don't like week 12 we were like like if there ever was a shot at this it was it's probably going to be now we were like no they were both on trajectory for the one seed and like yes you know we were like looking at the schedule and we were debating like which because i think some nfc teams were playing afc teams and we were like figuring out which one to root for to make sense that both guys would get the one seed no it was crazy and i think like the most stressed i've been on an nfl sunday outside of i guess even with superbowls has been that championship yeah it was it was the bengals chiefs and then niners niners eagles where i was like please god like that that was the most stressed i've been on nfl sunday i think ever even the super bowl was not that stressed like there's nothing you could do about it i called my mom at like five in the morning stressing out she very gently was like okay you've realized you're not playing like that's no no there's nothing we are we are my they need me i remember there's a group of people going they were like hey we're gonna go watch the games together and i was like i you don't want me there there's nothing about being around me on this day that will be fun for anybody else i remember during the during the bank well the eagles game i think you know yes writing was on the wall kind of quick on that one for a lot of reasons but the bengals game certainly fucking wasn't i remember very distinctly being in my living room like child's pose on the floor just like literally on the floor on all fours like head down and i think the bengals had the ball maybe they were down a field goal or like less with like two minutes to go and i was like this cannot be it this can't be fucking it i think chief's got a three and out in the ball back no bengals were up yes they could basically ice it out with the ball if they just got a few first down i remember it was like three first downs games over essentially they can just kneel and And I remember being like, I was like, I'm not going to record next week.

1:15:02If this is how it goes, I'm not going to do it. I'm somebody else can do it. I'm not dealing with this. And then Chris Jones took the Hummer out of the garage. What was it like on your end after the Super Bowl? Who sent the first like, hey, so are we recording on Tuesday text? How did that go? I don't remember. I think it was like, I think I just put sort of the rundown together and then just sent it with the time. And I don't know what responses I got out of that. I don't remember. It was one of those times where I was like, well, I got to send it.

1:15:38They're expecting it. I mean, they know what happened. Yeah. Do people still ask you who you're rooting for? Oh. I get it from time to time. Rooting for offense. It was rooting for offense. I've always told people that going into the Super Bowl, much like Ed Kelsey, we'd already won. Yes. It was going to be bad for somebody and great for somebody else. We knew that. So I honestly wasn't that, I wouldn't say not stressed because I wanted it to be good. I wanted it to be like a game that people wouldn't be like, I don't want to blow out. I was rooting for not blow out. I was like, somebody needs to be a good game where people can kind of keep their heads up about it and however they want to.

1:16:12It cannot be like 42 to three. Like it cannot be that. But I wasn't, I was not stressed going into this. I was like, it's going to happen. Like it's going to be bad one way or the other. Like there wasn't really much to do about it. I know that's always my, people get mad at me. They're always like, no, somebody. And I'm like, I really don't know what to tell you besides I wanted it to be a good game. That was kind of all I was rooting for. And it was one of the better ones, to be honest. I mean, sorry, Eagles fans. It was kind of one of the better ones. It really was. Eagles got their Super Bowl win, too.

1:16:37They did. They did. They did. They remind you constantly. Leave that in there. It's fine. No way. All right. No. But yeah, I get that question from time. And I never have an answer people like. So I apologize. If you ask me that and I give you that answer, that's what you're going to get. I was searching for Jake. Like starting for good social media content to come out of that day. We did get good social media content. Wait, were you with me when we saw the Rihanna set list? Yes. We, that is our biggest regret. Could have millionaires. We had the first song. This was also our first Super Bowl to attend.

1:17:09I don't know if that's interesting, but eye opening did not, was not ready for what it was. And like, we essentially didn't have tickets. We had media passes, which means you get to go stand around the Super Bowl. Yes. Yeah. You got a ticket eventually. But we essentially all had media passes, which means like, hey, do you want to go to the Super Bowl and like mill around and sort of just like keep moving and never be able to stop or sit down? And you go, that sounds awful. And you go, it is. It's interesting to go to Super Bowl. But like the media pass is not how it's cracked out to be. But we did wander around.

1:17:37We got to a place where we were standing behind all these like monitors and setups and whatever. And we just saw like Rihanna song list. And it was it was her halftime show written out by song. And we knew one of the prop bets was like, what song is first? and we didn't have stadium cell phone service. We were trying to put the savings on whatever it was that first song was. I was texting people like, hey, it's this. You got to go. And they were like, I think we found out they capped those bets. It's like a$25 bet. It was like nothing. Yeah, it was like nothing. But we were like, Jake, we could fucking be retiring off of this.

1:18:12This is it. It's our big break. Turns out we're still here. Sorry. That's it, guys. That is the top 92 clip countdown. That's it. That's New Heights, the show. If you didn't know what we were, watch those. You should probably get a pretty clear idea of what the show is. Jake, what's your final thoughts here? Final thoughts here. My final thoughts is it's tough to make a list. And as we've said before, if you have any complaints about moments that were left off, moments that were ordered wrong, you can tweet at Brandon underscore borders. At Jchat 85. At Brandon underscore borders. Or honestly, because I'm going to be on paternity leave, tweet at New Height Show.

1:18:47Just tweet at New Height Show with one S. We'll put the list out on social. We'll put the list out on social. Get in the comments. Yell at us. Tell us what we forgot. Tell us what we missed. Tell us what's egregiously unranked. If you're a guest of the show and you weren't featured on this list, let us know. Come back on. Yell at Jake. Be mad at Brandon. He made the list. The hardest part of the list, honestly, was the first half. Yes. Like the 40 to 92 was like, this is kind of the Wild West here. The top 10, I feel like we nailed pretty quick. 40 to 92 could have been 150 different things. Yeah.

1:19:18There was a lot. And if we miss something that's your favorite, get mad at us. Jake bat 85. Anyways, this has been the top 92 moments of all time from new heights. We will be back on September 2nd with brand new episodes. Jason Travis will be back. You will not have to hear from us that much. Promise you that we back football. Be back. It'll be beautiful.
