Hosting SNL, Drunken Parades and Meeting Spielberg | New Heights | Ep 29
92%ers we are back with the twenty-ninth episode of New Heights presented by our friends at @FireballWhiskyOfficial and we have a lot to catch you guys up on.
On this episode we jump right into the biggest ‘New News,’ we’ve got a New Niece and why Jason doesn’t think he’ll win father of the year anytime soon. We also look at some Calvin and Hobbes-inspired fan art, and crown the Quip Podcast MVP. Do we mostly just play around with an overpowered water flosser? Yes. But a trophy does change hands at some point.
Next, we break down the incredible post-Super Bowl run that Travis has been on. From dodging projectile beer cans at the Chiefs victory parade, singing with Jimmy Fallon, and going live from Studio 8H to host Saturday Night Live.
Travis answers all the big questions about hosting SNL. What is the week like, who was the unsung hero of the week, what was his favorite sketch, and most importantly, what time did he get home from the SNL afterparty?
Finally, Jason fills us in on what he was up to at the combine, what big-name guests he grabbed time with, and gives us a preview of our incredible interview with Howie Roseman that we will be dropping soon.
As always, watch and listen to new episodes of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce every Wednesday & check us out on Instagram, Twitter, and Tik Tok for all the best moments from the show.
