Travis Kelce promised to cut down on swearing during his podcast, but that didn't last very long.

At the beginning of the episode on Wednesday, March 20, Travis, who is 34 years old, tried to introduce his brother, Jason Kelce, and give the listeners a preview of what to expect on "New Heights."

Travis apologized for using profanity and asked Jason to share the content they have. Jason, who is 36 years old, mentioned that using f-bombs at the beginning of the episode is not ideal. This is because the team has to censor it, as it can affect the monetization of the video if it occurs within the first two minutes.

Travis was quick to hold back his comments about the upcoming “New Heights” live show happening on April 11 at the University of Cincinnati’s Nippert Stadium.

He casually mentioned, “I might need to bring a coat or even an umbrella for this one. But honestly, I don’t really care. Or maybe I should say, I don’t know.”

Travis quickly lost control during a chaotic drill in college practice, describing his former Bearcat teammates as "f–kin' flyin'" just minutes later.

Jason stepped in to refocus the conversation, discussing the upcoming event next month. The event will feature students and student-athletes competing in a variety of challenges.

“We cannot wait to unveil these fun games that we have planned,” Jason said. “It’s going to be ridiculous.”

Travis chimed in, “It’s gonna be so f–kin’ fun.”

Travis removed the wheels and mentioned that the live podcast could surpass the attendance record set by Canadian comedian Mike Ward. Ward had an audience of nearly 21,000 in Montreal in July 2022.

Travis added, "Cincinnati, we won't beat that unless you all buy some tickets now."

Travis couldn't contain his excitement and expressed his desire to take the podcast to new levels and set another record.

During the conversation about a T-shirt commemorating Jason's retirement from the NFL, which has generated a substantial amount of funds for charity, Travis enthusiastically gave a shout-out, using a profanity.

He expressed gratitude for the generous donations, totaling over $120,000. "We can't thank you guys enough," he said.
