The regularly scheduled episode with the Kelce brothers will drop on Tuesday, November 8 followed by the special episode with Hurts on Thursday, November 10.

In “New Heights,” the brothers – both Super Bowl champions – reveal insights about their games, react to NFL news, rumors, and sports headlines, and dive into their off-field interests alongside special guests including NFL peers, celebrity friends, and members of their inner circle. Travis, tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, brings his devilish sense of humor as he shares his perspective on life in the league as one of the NFL’s most recognizable offensive stars. Jason, center for the Philadelphia Eagles, taps into his pedigree as a highly-respected veteran to share unfiltered opinions and knowledgeable football insights from deep in the trenches. The brothers also share untold stories of ‘growing up Kelce’ in their hometown of Cleveland Heights, Ohio, from which the series derives its name.
