Charissa: "Taylor's impact cannot be overlooked like those little girls that maybe didn't have an interest in football and then sit down because it's her. Like, the commercials and the different little videos that you see that now all of a sudden the dads have a bond with their daughter over her, like, is so special," (Time Stamp: 26:01).

Jason Kelce gave his 'hot take' on Thanksgiving dinner
On the bonus episode of the "New Heights" podcast that was released on Monday, the Kelce brothers gave their hot take on Thanksgiving. A fan of the podcast left a message and declared that her least favorite part of the meal is the turkey.
It was then that both Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce agreed with that sentiment. The Super Bowl winning center went on to say that when they were younger, their mom, Donna Kelce, would make alternate meat options for the holiday meal.
“This is why I fry a turkey. It’s hard to eat turkey unless it’s deep-fried, and you know it’s boiled in fat grease.” The brothers agreed, and Jason revealed, “We purposely never had turkey. Mom would make pork chops or some other meat. I love most other things about Thanksgiving fare. I’m a big mashed potatoes guy. I’m a big corn guy," Jason stated.
Jason Kelce stated that he is the one that deep fries the turkey each year for Thanksgiving, He gave his wife, Kylie, credit for the delicious side dishes she makes and how that is the only way he enjoys the holiday meal.
