New Heights: The Kelce Brothers' Podcast

[suzzer99]

Mahomes put it on Kelce hard, and Kelce had to make a twisting catch in the air. It's still a catch Kelce usually makes. But it was a 7 or 8 on degree of difficulty.

[Dunerdr]

Remember when people said Reek wanted out to build his own brand because he wasnt going to be allowed to podcast in KC?

[Buehler445]

Kelce has only had one 1 concussion? Wow.

Jason went to the wrong sideline?

[Tribal Warfare]

Updated OP

[Tylerthigpen!1!]

I wish they wouldve talked about Tua as they brought it up after the first concussion.

[Dunerdr]

I cant believe this doesnt have 10+ pages by now

[ModSocks]

Yeah im halfway through the current episode. It's great. It's part of my regular rotation now.

[Buehler445]

This episode was funny as all ****. I laughed hard the whole time.

I love this shit.

The part where Kelce talked about being an all time great was a really good listen. The fact that these guys actually say stuff instead of puking cliches is really good.

Literally the only athlete podcast I listen to.

This one had the longest lulls, IMO. The Rudd stuff was a little too disjointed. Some of the earlier parts of it didn't go anywhere either.

But yeah, that Mount Rushmore conversation was great, especially when he's just like "Yeah, I'm on it..."

I did find it interesting that he had Winslow and TG as immediate locks. Gronk as a slow-rolled 3rd was not what I expected.

He went with the 3 I expected him to, but I was surprised that he seemed torn on Gronk as his 3rd.

I enjoyed the Rudd stuff. I laughed for probably 10 minutes at his throw away line "try harder" .

The best part about Rudd's part is that he REALLY ****ing cares. The stuff about his kid crying and all the stuff about next year and and all that did a couple things; First it effectively articulated the struggle that other teams might not know. Second it showed how much he really cares, which is for us. You hear about celebrity fans and yeah, maybe, but it's good that he actually cares. And it's weird to me - I know less than nothing about the celebity actor life but there aren't many rabid fans. It's good that we have one.

Rudd worked for me.

The I'm on it thing was good. And that's what I keep saying, they're honest. Hell, in a moment of honesty, most players would overrate themselves, but they've all been coached to pretend to be humble. What makes the thing go is that they're not spewing what3ever the PR guy tells them to.

I too was kind of surprised he threw Gonzo up there automatically. Gronk I get, and when he talked about motivating him to make his transition, that was really interesting. As we get older and have watched a million guys roll out to play football, it's easy to forget how impactful certain players can be in formative years.

I also think him talking about being a shithead was insightful. That can't be easy to sit there and talk about, but it was interesting to listen to.

Jason's "c'mon - it wasn't about you going to bars, you go to bars NOW" thing got a chuckle from me.

But I think what I found most interesting was that the switch to TE led him to "a love of the game I never had before..." It just kinda explains why he puts so much into playing his position - he genuinely loves playing TE.

I also thought it was pretty honest of him to say "hey - I liked it because I was good at it. I didn't have Brian Kelly chewing my ass for not throwing the football anymore..."

Yeah, that was pretty interesting stuff.

I'm GUESSING he quit going to the bars in college, but goes with the guys after he matured in the pros.

All those quotes were profoundly interesting. Same with the ones about learning the defense. It shows how he's so good at the finding openings business instead of just running a route like most guys do.

Just tidbits like that are worth the price of admission, and the self-deprecation about being not very good at it helps smooth the rough spots. I'm truly impressed.

I'm not really into podcasts, so this is really the only one I follow right now. I've actually learned a lot.

I laughed the hardest when Jason slid in the, "Thanks for listening to the pod, Andy" after they discussed the QB (TE) sneak.
