Kelce ended the post by asking his fans, “Where should the next @newheightshow LIVE SHOW be?!” giving hopes of another future rendition of their fun-filled live show. As the podcast shoot got over at the UC, it didn’t mean it was time for the NFL stars to head home! The Kelce brothers headed over to a nearby bar with the Chiefs’ rival QB and were even joined by Jason’s wife, Kylie.

No Kelce celebrations are complete without an after-party! Keeping with the spirit of the Cincinnati campus, the group moved to the student’s local hangout spot, ‘Uncle Woodys’. Jason and Burrow reached the bar with some friends first, and Travis joined in later. The venue posted a photograph of the group on their Instagram page, which showed that Kylie had also joined the group at some point.

The podcast was truly a wild ride! During the shenanigans that took place, Jason lost an invaluable possession: his Super Bowl ring. During their game show segment titled Lombaby Games, a pool full of Skyline Chili was part of the games. The retired Eagles star had a gala time in the pool, though afterward, he realized he had lost the championship ring. “We can safely assume my Super Bowl ring is now in a landfill someplace in the Cincinnati/tri-state area,” joked Jason.

With the exception of the loss of the former center’s ring, the live podcast was full of pleasant surprises. Be it the collab with the Bengals’ quarterback, a twist on the commencement ceremony, or Travis Kelce’s expected beer chugging, the episode has set the bar for fans’ expectations from future live shows!
