Travis Kelce interviewed comedian Andrew Santino on the "New Heights" podcast episode released on Wednesday, April 24. During the conversation, Travis mentioned the various names Santino is known by, such as The Slugger Santino and The Red Rocket.
Travis started listing the names from a Wikipedia page, but his brother Jason Kelce interrupted jokingly, pointing out that Santino was avoiding a word because he didn't know what it meant. Jason playfully called for a "time out" to bring attention to this moment of confusion.
Travis mentioned he used a good word, to which Jason agreed that he navigated it well. Santino then asked to see the original question, where the word Travis struggled with was revealed.
The word in question was "pseudonyms". Travis admitted that silent Ps always trip him up. He acknowledged, "'Wikipedia has an official list of your pseudonyms.' Ah, right, pseudonyms."
Jason initially teased his younger brother, but later stood up for Travis. The former NFL star defended Travis, stating, "We can't blame Travis for this. It's whoever wrote that word in there. How could you do that?"
Santino also commended Travis for swapping the word pseudonym with myriad. "You have a lot," he suggested. "A lot of lists."
Travis has had trouble pronouncing words before on "New Heights." In a recent episode on March 6, Travis and Jason both struggled to say a fan's username, which included the title of a Taylor Swift song, "Cornelia Street."
Travis questioned the pronunciation of the username @corneliastgirly, wondering if he was saying it right. Jason, on the other hand, humorously pronounced it as "Cornelius-T-girly" and "Cornelius-girlie."
Travis started dating Swift, who is 34 years old, last summer. Their relationship began after Travis called out the singer on his song "New Heights" for not accepting a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it at a concert during the July 2023 Eras Tour in Kansas City. The couple's romance continued to grab headlines as Swift showed her support for Travis at various NFL games, including Super Bowl LVIII in February.
Swift hinted at the couple's relationship in her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, mentioning winning as the "best in the league" and sports in the songs "The Alchemy" and "So High School."
Travis brought up Swift in the recent episode of "New Heights" on Wednesday, as Santino reminisced about her appearance on MTV's Punk'd. Back in 2012, host Justin Bieber played a prank on Swift, making her believe she had accidentally caused a firework to ignite a boat carrying a wedding party.
“You can ask her the truth, but she bought it,” Santino, who was an actor and writer on the show, told Travis, who laughed and said he would have to “ask Taylor about it.”
