On the fifteenth episode of New Heights, Jason and Travis finally got to sit down and have an incredible conversation with 4-time pro bowler, NFL MVP, and Super Bowl Champion Quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes.

Quick reminder, if you missed our previous interview with Eagles QB Jalen Hurts make sure you check it out here:    • Jalen Hurts on Draft Night Surprise, ...  

In this episode, Jason and Travis get Pat to explain why the Chiefs might not be running the QB sneak any time soon. We also dive into our most heated New Heights debate, who has the best fast food burger, the insane backstory about how he crushed his draft interview with Andy Reid, how his relationship with Alex Smith made him a better pro, and the legendary first meeting that led to his bromance with Travis.

The guys also get the never before heard story of how Pat basically drafted himself in 2017, how he’s adjusted to running an offense with a Tight End, why his greatest rival might be the teleprompter, and his welcome to the NFL moment playing against Tom Brady.

We also have some incredible stories behind his first start as a Chief: how he feels about all those wild comebacks, his thoughts on all the MVP chatter, and all the comparisons to Michael Jordan and Steph Curry.

Patrick also shares the superstitions he’s kept with him since his rookie year, what rivalries he’s got with other QBs, who is on his QB, Mt. Rushmore, and why Travis might not be the greatest partner in beer pong.

    Travis having an anxiety attack oversleeping an alarm is the most relatable thing I've seen from a professional athlete
  • @FLHXSDalton

    Matt Nagy giving the answers to Patrick Mahomes the day before the 30 visit is HILARIOUS.

    My daughter went to school with Patrick at Texas Tech. They graduated the same year. She said he was such a nice guy. They did a fundraiser in one of their classes that was for underprivileged children. She came up with the t-shirt design. They asked Patrick if they could use his likeness. He said “of course”. It was actually a silhouette of him passing a football. On the back it said, “Me and Mahommies!” She still wears it all the time. ❤🖤❤️ Wreck ‘em Tech! 💪 up!
  • Not enough credit to big brother Jason, he really looked out for his little brother Travis and he’s genuinely happy and proud of him. Shout out to big brothers/sisters. I love you guys
  • @cooly1224
    Love Travis’ “What” shocked expression in the beginning when Jason is introducing Pat and says that Trav caddies for him 😂 the chemistry between these 3 is unmatched
  • I love this little Eagles-Chiefs community being created lol. As an Eagles fan, I’ve pulled for KC because there was no reason to ever dislike them. But now I have even more respect for them because of this
  • @alwaysamused979
    I'll be honest...I only started watching you guys because I'm a Swiftie and I had to decide if I'm rooting for Trav or not (I am), but I've become low key addicted and I am learning SO MUCH about football! I had no idea it was such a mental sport. Love the rapport between you two. Absolutely adore Kylie and seeing the family and Mom and Dad. Love how real you guys are. Keep up the great work!
  • @sunnymoondog
    I love how Travis embraces minor "flaws" - the accidental lisp, Patrick making a mistake on the teleprompter, looking like a clown, etc. Confidence and acceptance and being positive about one's self = 💯❤
  • Shout out to the Kelce brothers for running a really nice interview for 2 hours. That’s not easy
  • @BebsTaem
    I am still clueless about how football works but i am here, binge watching a football podcast 🙈
  • Props to Alex Smith being an amazing mentor and Pat an sponge of a student and being humble acknowledging that!
  • @poker3276
    Pat is so humble and professional. He always gives other people credit.
  • @cyndilu9
    The Kelce brothers and Mahomes are such good dudes - so entertaining!
  • @john_trimble78
    Shout out to Whitehouse, TX. My son was a freshman when Pat was a senior at WHS. The summer before Pat's senior season, I was up at the field where the fb team was practicing. Mahones was warming up with a wideout tossing the ball back and forth. I recall walking by them, hearing the ball hum through the air when he released it. It caught me off guard. I recall thinking to myself, "Holy shit, this kid has a gun on him." Little did I know.....
