Summary
92%ers, welcome to another episode of New Heights brought to you by Liquid IV!
We covered a lot of ground today, so strap in. We’ve got the breakdown of Jason’s cowboy fit that the internet loves, a quick tangent on how much we’ve been loving Sabres Mafia and the NHL Playoffs, updates on some new merch, how you can see the show LIVE, our guest for an amazing bonus episode dropping this Friday, and most importantly, reactions to Patrick Bacon’s hole-in-one.
We also break down the Dexter Lawrence trade, give our take on what teams want from a draft pick, how Travis watches draftees' tape, hysterical top-30 visit stories, the secret to drafting a great QB, and a huge announcement about a new addition to the New Heights family.
Finally, we’re joined by Charlize Theron! We talk all about how hard she went for her new movie “APEX”, why she loves doing her own stunts, her obsession with serial killers, the secret to raising teenage daughters, her favorite action movie of all time, her welcome to Hollywood moment, and more!
