(01:03):
jump into the fascinating world of TravisKelcey. Trust us, you won't want
to miss a single detail. Firstthings first, let's talk some football.
Travis recently dished on the New Heightspodcast, which he hosts alongside his equally
entertaining brother Jason Kelcey, about histhoughts on the Chief's upcoming season. I

(01:25):
do like playing the potential top teamsin the league early, Travis explained,
referring to their scheduled match ups againsta f C contenders like the Ravens in
Bengals. I'd rather play them earlyor mid season. I don't like playing
at the end of season outside ofthe division. I just feel like it's
too close to the playoffs, andif I have a chance to play them

(01:45):
in the playoffs, I want tokeep that game fresh. It's a smart
strategy if you think about it,get the tough games out of the way
before the December aches and pains reallystart to kick in. Plus, with
the Chief's recent string of success,including that little thing called winning the Super
Bowl last season, Travis is feelingpretty confident about their chances against any opponent,

(02:08):
no matter when they face off.But enough about football for a minute.
Let's talk about Travis's budding acting career. That's right. The NFL star
recently landed a major role in RyanMurphy's upcoming FX series Gross Descery, and
he still can't quite believe it.I was kind of blown away and shocked

(02:30):
that he was willing to give mea role like this because it is a
big role, Travis gushed during anepisode of the podcast. Despite his lack
of acting experience, Travis said,everyone on set has been incredibly supportive and
helpful in getting him comfortable in frontof the camera. I feel like an
amateur, and uh, I haven'tgotten fired yet, so we're doing good,

(02:54):
he joked. They haven't told meto ah and kick rocks after the
first so it's been awesome. Hisco star, Nissi Nash Betts even gave
Travis a warm welcome to the Grostescriifamily, posting an adorable video on social
media of the two of them togetheron set. This is what happens when

(03:15):
winners link up, She captioned theclip, welcome to gross to query Ah,
we love to see it. Speakingof winners, let's talk about travis
girlfriend, the one and only TaylorSwift, the pop icon, recently kicked
off the European leg of her recordbreaking Eras tour, and Travis made sure

(03:37):
to be right by her side forthe momentous occasion. He flew out to
Paris to attend the final show ofher four night stint in the city,
which just so happened to be hereighty seventh performance on the tour, a
number that holds special significance for Travis, as it's his jersey number for the
Chiefs. During the show, Taylormade sure to give some hot water after

(04:00):
making controversial comments during his commencement speechat Benedictine College. The devout Catholic spoke
out against abortion, IVF and samesex marriage, calling them part of the
deadly sins. He also raised eyebrowsby telling female graduates that their most important
title should be home maker. Yikes. Needless to say, Bucker's comments didn't

(04:27):
exactly age well in light of hisprevious praise for Travis and Taylor's relationship.
But let's get back to the funstuff, shall we. Like Travis being
an unapologetic Instagram boyfriend and filming Taylor'sParis show with his camera flash on,
much to the amusement of his brotherJason. Well, you got caught pulling

(04:48):
an Ed Kelsey move here taking avideo with your flash on, Jason teased,
comparing Travis to their tech challenged dad. What are you doing, Trav?
You're supposed to to be better thanthis. Travis, however, had
zero regrets about his flash faux pas. Oh you know the settings on the

(05:09):
camera. If it's dark, it'sgoing to automatically put the flash on,
he explained with a shrug. Iwas just trying to get some good you
know, some good video, somegood memories. I don't give a damn
And honestly, who can blame him. After attending five of Taylor's shows so
far, including the Kansas City stopbefore they started dating, Travis still somehow

(05:30):
manages to be blown away by herperformances every single time. I don't know
if they're just getting better or ifI keep forgetting how they are. He
admitted on the podcast. It waselectric in there. I'm happy for everybody
that's in the Heiras tour, fromthe dancers to the band and obviously tailor.
It just looks like they're having somuch fun up there. While Travis

(05:54):
is living it up on tour withhis pop star girlfriend, Jason is gearing
up for his own new adventure,joining the Monday night football commentary team on
ESPN. The retired Eagles center recentlyinked a multi year deal with the network.
And he promised his little bro thathe won't spend too much time roasting
him on national television. Well,maybe just a little bit. I wouldn't

(06:17):
do that to you, Jason assuredTravis on the podcast. If you drop
a pass, I'm not going togo out of my way to criticize that.
However, he did warn that ifTravis breaks out any silly end zone
dances, all bets are off.Oh you know, those are getting picked
on. Jason teased all jokes aside. Jason expressed his excitement and gratitude for

(06:42):
the opportunity to join such an iconicfranchise in the sports broadcasting world, especially
when we were growing up. Thiswas the night that everyone thought of with
football, he said. Now I'mgoing to be on there with some incredibly
talented people. All these guys offernot just great expertise, but wonderful personalities.

(07:04):
It's going to be a good time. Of course, no article about
the Kelsey brothers would be complete withoutmentioning their legendary origin story getting kicked out
of preschool. Yep, you readthat right. Both Travis and Jason managed
to get themselves expelled from preschool askids, and they've been more than happy

(07:25):
to share the hilarious details with theirpodcast listeners. As it turns out,
one creative fan loved the story somuch that they turned them into an incredible
animated video that the brothers couldn't resistsharing on a recent episode This is So
Good, Travis raved before playing theclip, which features cartoon versions of young

(07:47):
Travis and Jason causing all sorts ofmischief. In Jason's case, he got
the boot after stabbing another kid inthe forehead with a spork during a game
of throw the Utah pencils at eachother, classic Big brother move. As
for Travis, his crime was throwinga chair at his teacher in a fit

(08:07):
of rage after she told him heneeded to share, even though he had
been dominating at checkers all day underhis dad's Winter Stays rules. Hey,
the kid had a point. Theanimated video ends with Jason's wife, Kylie,
walking in and expressing her disbelief atthe brother's preschool track records. Hold

(08:28):
up, you've both been kicked outof preschool, she asks, incredulously,
to which Travis quips, yeah,good luck. Thankfully, it seems like
the next generation of Kelsey's is faringmuch better in the classroom. So far,
Jason revealed that his oldest daughter,Wyat is doing great in preschool and

(08:50):
has received nothing but rave reviews fromher teachers. She's taken after Kylie very
well, he joked, and whoknows, Maybe day we'll see little Wyatt
and her sister Elliott cheering on theiruncle Travis at an Eira's tour stop,
or even babysitting future Kelsey Swift offspringwhile their parents are off being mega successful

(09:13):
in their respective fields. Hey,a family can dream, But for now,
we'll just have to keep living vicariouslythrough Travis and Jason's wild adventures,
both on and off the field.With a new football season on the horizon,
a major acting debut in the works, and plenty more globe trotting to

Kelsey is in talks for her owncooking show, well we might just have
