American sports radio personality Chris “Mad Dog” Russo did not hold back while revealing his true feelings about the “New Heights” podcast featuring NFL brother duo Jason and Travis Kelce.
Russo’s scathing remarks came after the Chiefs’ 13-16 loss against the Chargers in Week 14 of the NFL. After the game, Kelce chose not to speak to the media and instead shared his thoughts on the “New Heights Podcast.”
“Listen, all right, we all know he’s an all-timer and I could care less about stupid podcasts, but how about Kelce on Sunday afternoon?,” Russo began his rant.
Holy Sh*t: Chris ‘Mad Dog’ Russo goes OFF on Travis and Jason Kelce’s New Heights podcast.
“I could care less about his stupid podcast…No serious sports fan listens to that nonsense anyway.”

Kelce’s choice of not speaking with the media struck a nerve with Russo, as he called out the Chiefs’ tight end for not talking to the media despite a lot of developments in the fixture, which included Patrick Mahomes’ ACL injury.
This divided a lot of fans on X, as a certain fan base agreed with Russo’s rant, while a certain section of the fan base also called Chris Russo jealous of the podcast’s success.
“He’s not wrong. I’m tired of those two,” wrote a fan.
“Mad Dog’s got a point,” said a fan.
“Can I just say he’s 100% right and he’s just saying what a lot are thinking anyhow,” stated a fan.
“He’s right though, give the reporters something, respect…,” remarked a fan.
“He’s correct, commented a fan.
“He sounds jealous,” wrote another fan.
“Jealousy has many forms”, commented another fan.
“Kelce doesn’t owe this f**k anything”, stated another fan.
“He’s an idiot. It’s literally the number one sports podcast. New Heights is great,” said another fan.
“Salty much?,” remarked another fan.
Meanwhile, the Chiefs’ loss against the Chargers has officially ended their playoff aspirations, as the Kansas-based side are now sitting with an overall 6-8 record.
