On the twenty-first episode of New Heights, Jason and Travis react to some of your incredible fan art and we answer another of your not-dumb questions, “Which animal could actually play on a football team?”
We react to both the Eagles and the Chiefs clinching the #1 seeds in the playoffs and how the playoff bye week impacts players physically and mentally.
Travis breaks down how the Chiefs “Ring Around the Rosie” play actually happened against the Raiders and shares some of his favorite stories of his decade with Coach Reid.
Jason gives us a look into what it was like having Jalen “The System” Hurts back in the huddle and how this Eagles record-setting offense took flight this season.
The guys look at some of the wildest storylines from Week 18 in the NFL from the electric opening kickoff return in the Bills game, to Lovie Smith going out winning, the Lions upsetting the Packers, and why we don’t see college coaches succeed in the NFL.
And finally, since we don’t have a Chiefs or Eagles game to preview, we thought we would take a look back on the NFL regular season and hand out the first-ever New Heights Awards, The Newsies! Categories include; the New Best Friend Awards, Stat line of the Year, The Shit We Didn’t See Coming, and more!
Lastly, we need your help deciding our New Heights Stamp of the year so hit us up on social media @NewHeightShow or email us at [email protected] with your submissions.

Jalen “The System” Hurts
This is where the Chiefs and Eagles fans meet at the dinner table for some brotherly love
Getting here a lil late…. someone has explained the Fear and Loathing vibe of the fan art at 7:15 already, right?
Y'all can't stop there…that is bat country. Represented by the Eagle, I'm assuming.
Awesome stuff
Put that ball in an Elephants trunk and let him walk in the endzone
Philly fans are EVIL!!!
Elephants.
Just get a grizzly bear on the o and d line who gets past that
Dudes! Newbie here. Love you two Brothers!
Do not approve of the mac jones slander not very epic
Still would like to know, what happens if you have to go to the bathroom really bad in the middle of the game? What do you guys usually eat before a game? Do you have any pre game rituals?
Why do you call your podcast New Heights?
I went a different direction on no dumb questions
I’m throwing a grizzly bear at nose tackle
I’d put a rino on O line and put the qb on its back, snap to the qb and just ride the rino into the end zone 😂
The art work is giving me big "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" vibes.. super bowl in Vegas.. on yalls way.. idk seems like the pun
JASON SAID HOW YOU GONNA DEFEND THE STIFF TRUNK🤣🤣🤣🤣… I can't breathe..
How did you not think of a Bearcat? If they can hold a football, I bet they are like Barry Sanders.
Jason funny “grab one of the lines I step over the line”🤣🤣
Is there a chance for both your teams to play the SB together?
Dude if you put a goddamn gorilla at defensive tackle, what is the o-line gonna do? Actually, how the hell is a center gonna block an elephant?
The Herm Edwards “you play to win the game” was wonderful 😂
Kangaroo put the ball in the patch and jump its way to a touchdown!
You need to take animals temperament into account. Gorilla is stubborn and as brother Jason said lazy. You need an animal that can be playful. Instead of a gorilla I suggest a chimpanzee I feel like they could be a running back. They can be motivated to “play”
Gorilla climbs elephant and strips football
You guys have to do an animal draft now lollll
How do you ask a “dumb question “?
I am surprised that Mahomes wasn't nominated for the basketball play Newsie with his no look passes!
Kangaroo that plays RB on offense and LB on defense
Bird Gang
Bro a gorilla on the dline is an absolute wrap for any offense.
Shit we didn't see coming…..the Jags playing the Chiefs in KC in a Divisional round. Go get it Trav!!!!
Anyone else come to the comment section to see an example of a newsie?
Surprised a kangaroo wasn't mentioned. They'd jump into the endzone in 3 leaps.
