Chris Long interviews Kylie Kelce about motherhood, her podcast 'Not Gonna Lie,' her athletic background in field hockey, and her experiences covering the Olympics and Fashion Week. The conversation blends personal stories about raising four children with Jason Kelce, candid discussions about parenting challenges, and Kylie's evolving media presence.
Insights
- Authentic personal storytelling drives podcast engagement more than polished content—Kylie's willingness to discuss unglamorous topics like postpartum depression and parenting struggles resonates with audiences
- Athletes transitioning to media benefit from leveraging their existing credibility and networks rather than distancing from their sports background
- Content creators can build loyal audiences by maintaining consistent personality across platforms while expanding into adjacent areas (podcasting, social media, event coverage)
- Motherhood and family life are underexplored but highly relatable content categories in sports media, particularly when discussed authentically by former athletes
- Multi-platform content strategy (podcast, TikTok, guest appearances) allows creators to reach different audience segments and monetize various content formats

Some good Donna time. Yeah. I agree. That was fucked up. I got another you know what's fucked up. Yeah. This one has been bothering me for a while. You know what's fucked up? Oh, no. They sell hot dogs in packages of 10 hot dogs. They sell hot dog buns in packages of eight. That's fair. That actually bothers the fuck out of me. Okay. I will tell you, a lot of times, kids will choose not to have the bun. So come over to our house. You know I'm all about them buns.

They want you to wear, I don't know, a mid-calf? What is it? What is the, you know what I'm talking about? Tube socks. Yeah, sure. Tube socks. The fuck? I didn't know that. Those are Chug? Yeah. I mean, if Chuggy is millennial cringe, then that's me. I am her. She is me. I hate ick. Ick is my least favorite term, by the way. I just had such a good laugh about women posting different stances or things that they caught their significant other doing and said that it was the moment that they felt the ick towards their significant other. And let me tell you, there were there was one where someone was trying to fix something up under a cabinet, but they were kneeling on the counter. he had a sway in his back that he will never there was another one where um which this feels exposing to me i would not be the i would never be the person to do this but i'm glad she did uh she posted her a picture of her boyfriend I'm guessing in the tub wait men can't take baths now? no he was on his stomach in the tub with his feet up like he was playing mermaids what's wrong with that? men can be comfortable I dress up as a woman I dress up as you that's the ick right there don't show that to Maddie oh she's seen it she has seen that Yeah. Yeah. Ick is... There's a lot of funny things that come from the Ick. I think I would pick... So, I think Gen Z has tried to reclaim the term unk. Unk, yeah. That's an OG term. Yeah, I agree. I like it because it's an OG term. Unk, yeah. I got one I'm trying to bring back. Okay. So, please help me out with this. Booyah. Oh, okay. Yeah, right? Booyah. No one says booyah anymore. nobody does say booyah that's actually pretty good let's do it okay okay this week booyah how do you feel about the super bowl kylie booyah you're a fucking natural okay i'll work on it i'll work on it i think it needs some emphasis booyah yeah like that all right well at some point i'd like to hear a surprised booyah during this interview when appropriate i will hit you with it uh all right so back to not gonna lie you know like i said did my homework i watched every single podcast you've ever done no you didn't no i did not but um i was kind of wondering i feel like you've had some stellar guests and if there's a moment where you're interviewing somebody and you're like holy shit i'm interviewing so and so right now on a almost every time really almost every single time and it's just a surreal feeling yeah all right give me some examples i always have this out-of-body experience of like of gratitude yeah because i have again no business being in the situations that i'm in i disagree um i have no business sweating my absolute balls off talking to michelle obama that's the one i was kind of wondering i mean i think i'm my pits are still sweaty i genuinely like we hung up the column i was like could you see my upper lip sweat like i was just like in a i was it was i was so nervous um bindi erwin is another one i grew up watching steve irwin on animal planet that was the channel i preferred growing up exactly so that um yeah bindi was incredible some of the athletes that i've gotten a chance like asia wilson was one recently that was awesome page beckers was incredible we got to have a shirley temple courtside in philly so that's a dream it was courtside shirley i know we always caught it I called it a kitty cocktail growing up. You know, someone commented on my stuff. It is. Someone said in the Midwest, we call this a kitty cocktail, which like, it feels disrespectful to the drink. Yeah, to Shirley. I don't think Shirley wants to be diminished to a kitty cocktail. I think she deserves a little more respect. So consider it. Consider maybe removing her from the kitty cocktail. It's a tough habit for me to break. Shirley Temple. You could try. Kitty cocktail. We'll see if we can whip one up for you. Can Gatorade's the best thing you can do right now. So, I mean, obviously you've interviewed some awesome guests, like Michelle Obama. That's fucking crazy. But has there ever been a moment where you're interviewing somebody and you're like, holy shit, I'm botching this. Kind of like how I'm feeling right now, you know? Are you? I think you're doing a great job. But we're like, you know, you leave the interview, you're like, wow, that was tough. That was a hard one. You don't need to, like, name names. I don't even know that I could name names because I think I repressed the memory so that I don't dwell on it too long. I remember multiple times I got nervous about where I was in the rundown and trying to track the rundown. I have a prompter, and so I'm trying to move the rundown that we have up. And I just remember more than once in more than one interview where I just had a moment of like, oh, shit, I read that completely wrong. and then it seems as though like I was not prepared for what I'm doing and Queen Emma my producer puts a lot of work into those rundowns so I want to make sure that I convey it appropriately. They don't call her Queen Emma for nothing. Exactly. So I just So mostly just minor errors is what you're saying. I mean I'm still waiting for the moment that someone gets on and we're about 10 minutes into the interview and they're like why the fuck did I sign up for this? And then like talking to someone off camera and then all of a sudden the screen goes black that I'm waiting for that. Yeah. Well, have me on. I love to do that too Perfect That be fun The other thing too is like I feel like you very authentically yourself on your podcast which means there kind of a lot of swearing and or shit talk how much swearing is edited out on a you know on a base on a pod to pod basis well our beginning of the episode is typically just me just ranting so it's a decent amount of it's a decent amount of cutting yeah um i yeah some episodes i curse worse than others my dad can't stand it when i curse so i get a lot i do know when i went too far because my dad will be like that that episode was hard kylie my mom does that same thing oh my god suzy i'm so sorry seriously she one time she texted me she's like you didn't swear at all in the live show today i'm so proud of you i'm so sorry thanks mom green light's biggest fan she leaves some fun comments sometimes i want to see an like a swearing blooper reel though of you just edited a super cut. I'm sure it'd be like three hours long. At least. Queen Emma. That could be a good content idea. Yours truly. But going back, I mean, I feel like you have had so many cool, serious guests and it's interesting because I feel like there's such a fine line to walk between, you know, talking about things that are like important to you, you know, or like, you know, stuff that you want to really put out there and comment on, but also, you know, provide entertainment for your fans. Like, how do you, how do you kind of navigate that usually? i actually do a shit job uh because i say that i don't care i if i feel really strongly about it uh we filmed a postpartum episode i think i was three to four days postpartum with finn yeah last march um and i guess technically it was in april but it was just it was one of those things that i felt really strongly about i felt like if we could film an episode so soon postpartum that we could talk about more important topics. And the episode did great. But to be honest, I didn't care whether or not the episode did great. It hit the people that it was supposed to hit. I got to speak to Rebecca Fox. I'm going to botch her title, but she has written books on postpartum depression. And she is a practicing psychologist. She is outstanding. And she came on to discuss sort of like the stigmas and things like that. So those are the things that I feel really strongly about doing. And our team at Wave and Queen Emma have been outstanding with executing. Yeah. Well, that actually is a perfect transition into a segment that I'm calling. How do I phrase this? I think I want to call it shameless questions. A 34 year old man with no kids would like to ask his close friend and beautiful mother of four okay let's do it oh no question number one wait can i practice this with beau is acting like he is not well versed in children go on tell me more what do you mean i have no kids beau is a funkel he is and he i mean you're officially a fun it's transit the transition has happened recently and i'm i'm fucking here for it right but you were you've been at teams and for some reason have always gravitated towards people who are married have kids he's like they will parent me and he goes there take me too yeah yeah if i just slide in here they'll never know um but you like even when you come to visit us the girls know that they are going to get fun yeah uncle baby beau yeah exactly uncle baby beau has been the new nickname where did that come from exactly so which which child we talk about baby bow which is bow elliott right um and we talk about him quite frequently and so then when we talk about we talk about uncle bow there's a lot of bows yeah two bows is a lot of bows to uh six four and two-year-old that makes sense uncle baby bow though is a great great the minute the mistake happened i was like I'm never letting that down. I'm never letting that leave. That's happening forever. I'm leaning into it. I mean, Uncle Baby Bo. It's the most fitting nickname I think you've ever made. I showed up at the door a couple months ago or whatever, and it's just Wyatt inside, peeking her out of the window. She goes, Uncle Baby Bo. It was like 7 a.m. I was like, good morning. Why? What's up? Yeah. I think it was Ellie that technically made the mistake. I remember I was calling her Baby Ellie, and she got mad about it. And then she started calling me Baby Bo. And then Uncle Baby Bo. she is um she will be our funniest child by accident really so i say why it wants people to laugh like she wants to make people laugh ellie makes people laugh has no reason like no understanding why benny knows she's funny okay that's that's where that's that's the difference there she knows she's funny she will like fuck with you and be happy about it ellie says shit and you're like what and she didn't mean it at all she's just being her true and honest and why it's just bullying everybody why it's just leading the pack okay can i ask you my weird questions about motherhood yes breastfeeding people yes what oh my god you go ahead ask the question i just can't i'm so excited for the fact that you know i'm gonna give you an honest answer go ahead that's I mean, you know, this is a topic that we get into a lot on the Greenlight Pod. Sure. Do you really? In between, you know, run blitzes and talking about cover two and breastfeeding. Sure. But I think, you know, as a man, I'll never have the privilege and honor of carrying a child and breastfeeding. Yep. Maybe. You know, you never know. Never know where science is going. So I guess I'm trying to figure out how to put this in a respectful and or scientific way. You can just say it. Can you feel the milk leaving your manners? Yes. Okay. All right. Let me tell you, this is actually, I'm so glad you asked this. Is this what you thought you'd be talking about? No, I do. And I'm really excited about it. Okay. So, so less, you don't feel it as much when it's leaving, but you do feel it when it's, when it lets down. So like at any given point, you're not just like, well, it depends on the time, but you're not just like leaking milk. Right. So like it's you, you let down the milk when the baby eats, but that happens at specific times like if you have not fed a baby in a while and a baby cries near you that genuinely could like produce a letdown the key is is that you don't feel it leaving your boob you do feel the letdown and it feels like hot pins and needles to your nipple you're welcome great i thought you were like i'm not fucking it no right there you go it's a good answer i appreciate it and all the women who are listening to this are like wow that's a great explanation of what that feels like you're welcome i appreciate that um question two yes what if you could rank these experiences from best to worst basically right being pregnant uh-huh the birthing process or the act of raising a child so far okay by far worst thing being pregnant absolute garbage trash do not recommend zero out of ten it's a means to an end i love my babies i hated carrying them Yeah. It's just an unpleasant experience. I will say that is the worst. Birth is second and raising them is the best. Got it. Depends on the day. Yes. Because birth, you have to think about it, is just a drop in the bucket. And I have been. Maybe if you've had four kids. I was going to say, I've been very fortunate to have really good birth experiences. So, yeah, I'm sticking with that. pregnancy is literally nine months of nausea for me which is terrible and you don't like nausea i do not like nausea yeah one time i barfed in kylie's yard and she was furious at me i wasn't mad i was just more concerned that you were going to come in the house and if you were going to do it again no i had to get it out before i went in the house he literally like i see him get out of the car the uber this was after jake elliott's wedding by the way is that when it was i saw you get out of the uber and all of a sudden he walked and that just kept walking but the driveway door camera is on the door so i was like where the fuck are you going yeah walked past the door i'm assuming booted and rallied in the bushes and then ended up back in the house and i was just like if you're gonna do that again can you go back outside i would have too great thank you for that all right anyway back to motherhood um yeah so you already know this about me kylie but i'm not a poop guy you're not at all how much poop are we talking about here what's the poop schedule looking like for having four kids i will tell you i have been in let's call it hairy situations uh yeah some situations i would have preferred to you know go my whole life not experiencing you're talking about with your husband or with your kids both i'm kidding um my my kids uh they like just on like a very simple day where it's and at this point it's gotten so normal that i'm annoyed there is a potty seat that gets put on the potty so that they can walk up to the height and have their feet on the on something so that their butts don't fall in and the number of times that they have not waited for a wipe and they will sort of like scoot their butt forward and then you have to like bleach the whole seat again is just i've had enough yeah i heard a deep sigh from someone yep someone who has kids yeah it's just you want them you're gonna have to move on yeah i mean there is a soundtrack of our lives and it includes at any given point someone saying i'm all done pooping and they've like passed it like a torch like quiet and ellie have now passed it along benny now does it she has taken the reins on that and at any given point in our house you will hear someone yell. I think it's fully pious right now. She only asks to wipe for a wipe with poop. Good for you, Benny. She's got places to go, things to do. Okay, I'd like to move on from poop.

I got two more for you here. Who has thrown the biggest tantrum of the family? And was it your husband? Please provide specifics. I don't think it was my husband. Okay. Because I've seen him throw some tantrums. Yeah. You know what's funny? For the first however many years of our relationship while he was still playing, he would have a tantrum at work which is the ones that i'm assuming you've seen it's great and he would text me i fucked up that was the whole text and it happened every single time and he would do it i would say like once maybe twice a season yeah he would have what the kids are calling a crash out nice gen z thank you maybe that's my maybe that's my maybe that's my favorite i do like crash that sounds like a good segment for not gonna lie crash out of the week kylie's crash out of the week honestly maybe yeah um but he he used to have those crash outs at work yeah so i would just get that right i used to just get the i fucked up although the one time when he when he launched the trash can that was funny so uh because he got cleated yeah that one i got texts from other people before i got the text from him i remember which was a debacle um no i would say our biggest i think the kids have each had their own biggest meltdown i'm trying to think benny had a big one literally last night she didn't want to say sorry to her sister for throwing a magnetile at her head oh she like just how's her arm pretty good great the issue is it was close range they were sitting closer than we are wow um and she just straight to the side of the dome like a fucking ninja star Wyatt and um Wyatt didn't think it was funny um she was actually quite upset about it and so Jason said Benny say sorry to which she responded with screaming crying for 10 minutes so I don't know if that was regret or just like her trying to hunker down and not have to say Sorry, but that kind of thing happens on a regular basis. So Kelsey crash out of the week. Uh okay My last question about motherhood I guess or children i saw during my extensive research um into your podcast that you have a little bit about how long you let travis watch the girls solo with no help yes how long and do you would you give me more or less time than that i have reached uncle baby beau status are significant others coming no solo dola i would say that i would probably give you you're not gonna like this answer slightly less time okay why is that the poop honestly factoring that in i would have to give you significantly there's four of them Like at any, the chances that within an hour someone is taking a dump is so high. I'd be more worried about Benny. Finn, she's young, you know. She's little. She's a little baby. What if, what if she poops and then she's, she's standing now. And what if she just like, boop. I'd be fine with it. I just would complain about it a little bit. You'd be fine with a blowout? Yeah. I would just complain about it nonstop forever.

Yeah, I mean, it was so impressive. Impressive. Yeah, I'd go with impressive. Hell yeah. I've never met anyone else who can eat a Jolly Rancher in one bite. So put that shit on my resume, Kylie. I'm going to need a little more information. Do you chew it? You chew it. One bite. Just swallow it. Yeah. That's why I'm on candy, man. This is the reason why. Did you choke? Was there like a near-death experience? No, I'm fucking pro with this. You know how many reps I've gotten? Okay. Yeah. all right all right moving on you're obviously very active on social media talked about your attention on the day yeah to tiktok yep who's more addicted to tiktok or obsessed with it i guess you or kelsey because he was showing me his tiktoks that he made and they're fucking terrible can you comment on that i thought they were great so i commented i said this is the worst content i've ever seen i will tell you i did ask him about the toilet one that's what i'm talking about okay the first one first one was outstanding yeah the second one i was like i'm gonna need a little bit and he was like it was really straightforward and when he answered me that i was like oh it was really straightforward so he did mean that he was going to the toilet yeah i was i was in the trailer i got there you watched it happen no i left because like you didn't want to watch a small space you didn't want to be in the background absolutely not i don't think with as close of an angle as he's getting you would have been in the shot so right i think it's great i think it's very unique i have not seen someone start all their tiktoks with their face this close so i actually like it it's a new trend booyah um but speaking of tiktok trends uh did you see the 2016 to like 2026 did you partake i did not we technically did on the podcast uh i did i posted a little photo of me and connor bar in a bathtub from i think i saw this great photo can we see this oh yes i did see this a little cold plunge with the friends that's an epsom salt bath oh is it oh how healing but how healing next time i'll lay on my stomach and kick my feet up please uh but let me with connor in there yeah exactly so connor's gonna need to like sit on your back or something i'll figure out the logistics okay thanks yeah have you told the story on the podcast of when of you doing the most impressive physical feat of your life do you know every single time i tell that story that's how i say it thank you it was so hard honestly because and you know how i explain it i say that you told me that if you had to carry someone who was dead weight that would be difficult but he was physically fighting you the entire way and giggling the whole time because i guess he just met the love of his life he was fucking he had he had a sip of a shirley temple and was like that's it yeah that is it what a guy yep and you have hair down photos of him as well oh yeah because i will tell you that that's how i used to know that he was blacked out when we first started dating he would send me a selfie with no context there was not like he would stop answering me an hour earlier and then all of a sudden he would send me a selfie with his hair down and it was typically like in the back of an uber or like in a in a booth of a bar and i'm like i guess i'll talk to you tomorrow i don't okay i feel like you must have done something right kai i mean what i mean four kids later yeah exactly yeah all right let's talk about some more exciting things kai every time you start a new segment i'm like shit is this the one no this no these this is all this is light work all right sure yeah you're quite the college athlete yourself kyle i feel like people forget about that uh but green light pod has a close associate that played for your rival gwyn ed mercy oh we have a scouting report on you and our field hockey correspondent yeah this is murray field hockey yeah good mercy what years she graduated 2019 so oh so we played against each other like two years okay let me tell you about gwen ed hey man so my sister went to gwen ed and she only played for one year because there was a situation with the coaching staff and they told her basically that she needed to choose between nursing and field hockey. But just to give it a little context, it's Division III field hockey. My wife's a nurse. Is she? Wow. So Gwennett is known for their nursing program. They have an outstanding nursing program because they start their clinicals really early, and it allows people to really understand whether or not they want to be a nurse. And just also a longstanding program. But that's your biggest rival, right? It was our biggest rival in college. like so much so that there i still remember an off season where i was running steps and i was like i can't do this anymore and then i had a moment of like nah i really want to fucking be gwen and then i kept going yeah so uh fuck when you didn't tell your wife i said that um cabrini doesn't even exist anymore my college does not exist anymore and gwen still exists and i will say fuck when until the end of time fuck what i'm a cabrini man all right everyone knows that but anyway uh we had really nice things to say about you by the way your scouting report is that kylie was our playmaker and the entire focus of our game plan when we played cabrini you just shit all over her and her uh organization well uh one of the one of the uh conference championships we won we actually did at glennon we won on their oh i got that in the scouting report okay uh that one was big deal yeah i loved that how'd you play um i think i played okay yeah i don't remember for sure i remember i remember our last game my last college game ever it was at trinity i think does that sound right i think so and yeah we have it and i i think i scored two or three goals yeah patrick yeah so humble he knew it was three come on i did not because i all i remember is the minute the game ended I was like oh my gosh I never I will never play field hockey again and so then I promptly we rode the bus all the way back to school and instead of going 15 minutes from school to my house where I lived I drove maybe 40 minutes into the city and cried myself to sleep in Jason's bed and he the whole time was like oh uh it's gonna be okay it's like it's not and I think in his head he was like she just finished playing d3 field hockey and she's having a fucking crash out whatever it's the end of an era it was it was the end of an era i loved that all right let me brag about you for a sec in 2018 kylie was named to the csac 25th c-sac 25th anniversary team honoring the league's best student athletes over the course of the conference's 25 year anniversary was it really yeah and for what it's worth her husband was only a two-time all-conference at cincinnati while you were four times all conference in college my dog okay booyah yes thank you so kind of a freak athlete okay yeah and i'll never forget kylie there was this one time we went to top golf do you remember that and you were slapping the ball with the craziest field hockey stance choking up on a driver yes i do and ripping it like 200 300 yards and i was like holy fuck it was sick thank you yeah so that was really i do like that whenever jason does the same thing when he references my athletic ability he's always like you gotta see this chick at top golf it was it was like a defining memory for me because i mean i suck at golf and i'm like butthurt about it and you were fucking murdering the ball and i was like oh my god it's honestly it's only that i get good contact great contact yeah that's fine um and i'm in case you were wondering that was how many years ago that was like probably 10 years ago okay i'm still choking up on a driver i mean you're making great contact i thought about pulling a full uh happy gilmore and putting my uh my field hockey stick in a golf bag that would be dope i just think it could open up some opportunities for me yeah like putting would be way easier seriously yep we'll think about it is that illegal you're asking the wrong guy okay we're a football and motherhood podcast here.

This is no bullshit, okay? I'm just telling people creatine has changed the game for me. Cognition is a big part of it too. It's not just like, hey, you know, getting jacked or that sort of thing. We're all jacked. You're jacked, bro. Thank you. I appreciate it. Say it back. But I'm jacked. You jacked as well Oh there it is Thanks He is jacked Yeah He is more jacked than almost anybody here The guy lifts the most. But creatine, he looks like he's on a lot of creatine. A lot. You know, do you take creatine? How many grams do you take? I take seven. I take seven grams a day. And they're good for your brain. I talked about the cognition. Really important benefits for recovery, strength, cognition, staying active as you get older. I think everybody should try creatine And you know I'm not a doctor But you don't need to be one To be slinging creatine You know why did I start Taking it I really do honestly Have a hard time keeping my weight on I've always had a hard time keeping my weight on I just run I run like a machine That's like a ton of RPM So I'm like always burning calories and shit Creatine helps me keep my muscle mass on Which helps me stay in the gym Stay strong into my 40s which is a whole, you guys will see, it fucking sucks. But creatine helps me there. And like even in the afternoon when I got some brain fog or whatever, I might take some creatine like half my dose. You know, and I really do feel clear-headed after I take it. I have introduced people to creatine. Yeah, I've introduced, I try to get my wife to start taking creatine. She's taking some creatine. Healthy brain, cognitive benefits that get older, and the muscle maintenance that, honestly, I wish I took creatine when I played. You didn't? That's a problem. I did not because I was always worried about pulling muscles. That's kind of like what people talk about. But you got to take a lot of it to really have tighter muscles. So, yeah, I mean, like, listen, I'm a washed up NFL player now. And it's kind of the key to me staying in shape enough so people aren't like, what the fuck happened to you? Create gummies, man. Check them out. They really do help. We know you're headed to Milan for the Olympics coming up here. I don't know. Like, what can you tell us about the events you're covering? I would tell you everything I know, which is I'm interviewing a few former Olympians and one current Olympian. And that's that's what I know. Yeah, you don't need to spill the beans too early. But I do you want to know who? Kind of. When are you releasing this? Breaking news. I don't know. I think I think we're banking it for after the Super Bowl. You're just saying that to get me to say it. I swear to God. If this releases in an appropriate amount of time, you can not bleep this. If it is not, you can check with Queen Emma. I'll check with Queen Emma. She's the queen. But can you tell me just for funsies? Michaela Schifrin. That's tight. I'm pretty excited about it. Specifically because I need help when it comes to skiing, and I really think that she might be the person for it. Yeah. Yeah. I think she is. So, yeah. And we have some of our former Olympians. We have Johnny Weir. Nice. he's on traders right he was which i'm very excited to ask him about yeah yeah and in in the extensive research i did on you i learned that you were a sports journalist major at cabrini i was is that uh always something you wanted to do like be in a booth or like kind of i don't know interviews like that i just love sports i think when you're an athlete your whole life you have difficulty separating yourself from it yeah after you're done with your own career Yeah, just start a podcast with your buddies. That's what I did. Look at us. Yeah, look at us. Look at us go. It does feel nice to be using my degree. Yeah. Because for a minute there, it was just a really expensive piece of paper. I get it. I got my degree in HR. Yeah, how's that going? Yeah, it took me 12 years. You're telling me, hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up. I'm the HR head of Greenlight Podcast, just so you know. so that explains a lot immediate a lot of disputes I had to go back to school to finish my degree it was me in online class with like a bunch I think I was one of like two dudes and it was like all women that were like 30 to 45 years old going back to school to get their like HR certs and I was just like they're like tell me about how you handle the dispute in your workplace and in the back of my mind I'm like oh yeah we just fought in the shower you know like oh no yeah so okay very applicable but you but you completed your degree yeah when did you finish it uh 2022 oh okay yeah i had to go back to school look at you go but you know what no one can ever take that from you exactly there you go you got it you did it i did it guy um because suzy would have taken you well i literally promised her uh okay back to the olympics real quick you have i know you were in paris for the summer olympics 2024 do you have any favorite olympic events or like a favorite olympic memory i just still think it's crazy that i get to go to an olympics period just to watch it is amazing to get to do anything interacting with the athletes is unreal i would say the best part of the summer olympics in paris was getting to watch women's rugby sevens oh yeah it's i i've never watched rugby and so watching uh sevens was a really cool experience we also got to do it with some of the reps for i think world rugby and also the u.s rugby uh program and so we got to sit in a suite and basically pepper these people with questions to make sure that i could understand what the fuck i was watching um and it's just it was just so impressive so that was that was really really cool um it was also the first time i had ever been at a volleyball game we saw men's volleyball and it's a party they have a dj there's coordinated moves this beach volleyball or indoor indoor volleyball yeah those dudes are sick athletes too it's incredible yeah but i didn't know that we were going to be doing choreographed dances and it was literally like the whole stances and i was like oh am i doing this Were we doing this? Okay. It was crazy. It was fun. Bring that to the link, you know? Okay. Yeah. Get that going. You think, as Philadelphia fans, we will cooperate? You can try. Okay. You're just trying. Yeah. But obviously, Milan, for the Olympics, I know you went to Fashion Week. I did. How was that? Kind of a fashionista now, huh? Talk about places I have no business being. That's where the series started. The TikTok series, Places Kylie has no business being, started in Milan. and you want to know you want to know shout out to carly p really yes carly with the eagles uh i was speaking to her on the phone about something unrelated and i said i'm actually going to milan next week uh i have no business going to fashion week but i'm going and she goes oh you should you should make that a series because like you're getting to go do a lot of cool things right now and i was like that's i'm doing it and then i did it and now we're i think i think there's like four different ones I have of TikToks of just places that I have no business being. It's that simple. But Fashion Week was incredible. Yeah, it was. I love getting to meet people and talk to people about things that I don't know anything about that they are absolute experts in. That's how I feel talking to you about motherhood, Kylie. Well, that's very kind. But it's just so cool to pick people's brains and to see their passion through the way that they explain things. So Fashion Week was one of those opportunities. You're going to go back to, I don't know, like Fashion Week ever? Probably not. Okay. Well, if you do. You want to come? Yeah, but they're not going to have my size in Milan. Believe me. You don't know that. There's only one way to find out, Kylie. Go to Milan. Go get some custom fits. Let's go. Sorry, while we're on the Olympics, what do you think is cooler, the Olympics or the Super Bowl? I don't want to put you in any hot water since you're going out there next week. I feel like this isn't even a debate. Would people debate this? I think the Olympics are cooler. The Olympics are so much cooler. It's a world stage. Agreed. And I think that the Super Bowl is an amazing feat. World champs, though, you know? Yeah. When no other countries are competing. I know. I need that. That's so American of us to be like, world champs. No one else is fucking competing. Sit the fuck down. Yeah. It's definitely the Olympics, right? Yeah, I think so. I mean, we're here for the Super Bowl and it's really awesome and we love the Super Bowl. It's a defining moment for us. I will say there is a degree of the Super Bowl that I think people don't, it's lost a little bit in the NFL that so many people play years in the NFL and never get to make a Super Bowl appearance. So even just making it to this game is an incredible accomplishment. That being said, Olympics way cooler. Agreed. I got some random one hitter questions for you. Oh, no. Are they rapid fire? Yeah, rapid fire. To be clear, I want it to, you should do a social cut of me saying, oh no, every time you start a new segment. Oh no. Oh no. No, these are easy. General candy discussion we already hit. Yep. I literally have that as bullet point. This is a good one. How self-aware. Yeah. Have you, Kylie Kelsey, ever smoked a cigarette? Did you ask this because you know this is my fun fact? No. Oh. I have never smoked anything in my entire life. You had to know that was the answer. I didn't. I mean, I'm sure it's come up before. It is my go-to. Never have I ever. At 33 years old, you don't get the opportunity to play Never Have I Ever anymore. So I'm going to put it right here. And to be clear, not that I would want to play Never Have I Ever. You could do it on the pod. Nope, I'm good. But it used to be my go-to. I have never smoked a single thing. Not a cigar, not a vape, not a cigarette, not a joint, nothing. You're boring. Not a bowl. I said that like I was thinking. I don't even know. When I was a junior in high school, I was standing at my friend's door. She was having a house party. And she was going out the door with a couple people. And she turned around. She was like, hey, we're going to get a bowl. Just keep it held down. And I was like, cool. And I turned to the person behind me as soon as the door shut and said, what's a bowl? A bowl of cereal? Let's really make this a party. Yeah. Junior in high school. That's when that happens. Pure. Next question. This is a hard hitter. do water and water taste different oh that's a great question I would think that they do I think that water probably has a little more oomph to it like a little character got it not quite as clean of a taste as water gotcha which do you prefer I mean I I will admit I do not say water I do say water you have to catch my philly accent on other words i like a more subtle like when i say asshole yeah yep i've heard that and if i say it too fast or i'm actually angry it gets harder asshole yep asshole you were in philly long enough you should be able to do that better yeah okay i just don't really call people assholes that much like you you know i'm a nice guy i like to say there's a fun type of asshole. You know? There's not that. You're a child. I always used to say I don't need alcohol to be an asshole but like I mean asshole in the fun type. Not like a jerk. But you meant an asshole. Yep. That's all I got Kylie. I have some other questions here, but I think that's a perfect way to end. You don't want to ask your other questions? I don't want to ask my other questions. Just for funsies, can I see them? You can see them. Okay. Check out General Candy Discussion. I mean, we can always bop back into that if you can read my handwriting. Well, I did actually. Did you see the garage beer commercial we put out today, Kylie? I love it. With the shit on the face? I will say, I did offer feedback to Jason. I do like the shorter, quicker version of you saying. at the beginning or the the oh you got it oh you talk about there was a longer version you're good you don't understand how many takes I had to do to do that and Kelsa sitting there with shit it was frosting it's chocolate frosting I did ask that he did tell me wow way to break the mirage it was shit it was pure shit it was obviously horse shit it was horse shit but it was like dripping off of his face and they were like I'm a terrible actor It's been kind of the running joke for this. I heard you did. Dude, I crushed the last one. I did. I heard that. Wait till you hear my accent. It's really funny. Yes. Wait. You want to know the best part? When. Oh, this is. This is bad. I probably shouldn't admit it, but I'm going to do it anyway. When Jason called me the one night and I said, how's Bo? And he said, he's actually doing great. He's actually doing great. I spoke to him the next day and I was like, so is Bo actually doing great? You're an asshole. Or was he just in the room? because I thought he was just trying to hype you up. I thought he was like, Bo's doing so well. He's amazing. He hasn't botched anything. I literally asked him the next day, tell me the truth. Was Bo in the room and you were just hyping him up? And he was like, no, he actually did a really great job. So I do want to emphasize that he doubled down. Are you excited to kill me? I'm so excited to kill me. I get to do it this week. Have fun. I get to fire the shot this week. Enjoy it. Do you know that's the only way I signed up for this? Oh, I know. Jason led with, you get to kill Bo. And I was like, when and where? Yeah, you guys will be able to- For real or for fake? Takes more than one shot. Come on. All right, Kylie. We did it. You're being mean to me now. So now you get the fuck out of here. I told you I would start out nice. Look where we ended up.
