We are all familiar with the vibrant energy of the Calm Down podcast with Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson! Whether it’s the sports talk featuring candid, behind-the-scenes banter, or locker room meets living room moments, it bespeaks entertainment. But in the recent episode, the host brought a completely different energy. They brought in the fellas. Finally. As Jarret Stoll, a two-time Stanley Cup champ, married to Andrews, and Steven Cundari, a marketing guy and a longtime ride-or-die with Charissa, joined the podcast, Travis Kelce had something brief to say.
As the official IG handle of the Calm Down podcast released the clip, with the caption, “The Plus Ones are here! @stolly28 & @stevencundari join the show for lots of laughs & setting the record straight!,” Kelce took to the comment section to drop his shoutout. He penned, “Shoutout to The Plus Ones!!!” And, Erin sees it as she hits back with “WHAT A JIMMMMMY.” In Calm Down language, that’s love. That’s roast. That’s respect.
When it comes to Kelce, we already know his resumé. 3 Super Bowl rings, 10x Pro Bowler, over 12K receiving yards, dating the biggest pop star on the planet, and co-host of the New Heights podcast, you name it. As Andrews and Thompson delivered 40 minutes of drawer drama, hair dryer hot takes, and just the right amount of “did-he-really-just-say-that?” moments with their better halves, Travis Kelce was all up for it.
