‘I need a second’ – Travis Kelce made brother Jason rage quit their podcast and postpone show after roasting him with Eagles jokes
Nobody can get under Jason Kelce’s skin quite like his little brother Travis.
The former Philadelphia Eagles center once stormed off their New Heights podcast after Travis’ jokes finally took their toll.

The podcast episode appears to date back to November 2022, just days after Philadelphia’s narrow 17-16 win over the Indianapolis Colts.
During the taping of that particular episode, Jason blamed part of his turnover from the game on miscommunication with his teammates.
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis made a joke about him making excuses which seemed to trigger Jason.
“Is that the excuse train coming into the Eagles locker room right now?” Travis said while making train noises.
Not wanting to go in too hard, Travis then quickly tried to change the subject but the damage was already done.
“I might need a little second,” a visibly irked Jason said before removing his headphones and storming off.
“What just happened here?” Travis said as he was left with nobody to talk to.
Footage then stops with the pair picking up the recording the next day.
Jason had a whole new outfit on while Travis returned in the same exact hockey jersey.
The recording restarted with Jason admitting Travis got under his skin while also taking accountability for his actions.

“Travis hit me in the feels a little bit, so we decided to postpone the show,” he said.
“We started recording it Monday night and now we’re back Tuesday to record the rest of it because I needed to calm down.
“If there’s anybody that knows how to get under my skin, it’s Travis Kelce.”
Fortunately the siblings get on famously and there’s no hard feelings between the pair.
Their brotherly banter has made the New Heights podcast one of the most popular NFL podcasts around and its audience has continued to grow throughout the regular season.
The Eagles ultimately managed to get it together after Jason’s turnover that, reaching Super Bowl LVII following the 2022 season.
That year’s Super Bowl was dubbed the ‘Kelce Bowl’, as it pitted Jason and Travis against each other, the first time brothers had lined up against each other in the annual big game.
Once again it was Travis who had the last laugh, with the Chiefs winning 35-38 to clinch their second Super Bowl of the Andy Reid era.
This year’s Super Bowl is a rematch of that game, although fans won’t be seeing the ‘Kelce Bowl’ 2.0.
Jason retired from football in 2024 after his Eagles were beaten in the wild card round of the playoffs by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Travis and the Chiefs, meanwhile, are bidding for an unprecedented Super Bowl three-peat, having won last year’s showpiece against the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas.
They take on superstar running back Saquon Barkley and the Eagles on February 9 in New Orleans in Super Bowl LIX.
