Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce are fraternity goals.

During ESPN’s media day on Wednesday, August 28, the retired NFL star turned heads Monday night countdown analyst, 36, discussed how his “loving relationship” with his younger brother Travis made their New heights podcast for success.

“I think what you get in the podcast is, first of all, an organic, loving relationship between two brothers. We’re honest with each other. And it shows,” Jason said. “We have good personalities that I think audiences generally appreciate and want to watch and listen to, I don’t know if I fully agree with that, but they’re there.”

The Kelce brothers premiered the third season of their podcast on Wednesday after signing a three-year, $100 million deal with Amazon podcast studio Wondery.

Speaking about what he believes drives people to get involved, Jason said: “I think by nature we’re very, very open people and I think we share things and obviously live exciting lives that people want to follow. And then all those things help.. . because the more people watch, the more money advertisers spend.”

He plans to incorporate his experience as a podcast host into his new role at ESPN by being his “authentic self.”
