92%ers welcome back another episode of New Heights, brought to you by our friends at General Mills’s Favorite Cereal Brands!

We’ve got an incredible episode to wrap up season 3!

First, we welcome back Adam Sandler to talk all things Happy Gilmore 2, how Travis’ scenes with Bad Bunny turned out, Big Ed’s cameo, and the origins of the iconic Happy Gilmore swing.

Next, we check in with Travis and how he’s feeling going into his 13 training camp at St. Joe’s, attempt to explain what the hell is going on with the NFLPA’s corporate credit card, take a look at some fan mentions about Jason lawn art, the Jets Jake Tattoo, and caffeinated cupcakes.

And we’re not even close to done yet because we finally give our long-awaited review of the 1990 classic “Pretty Woman.” See if Jason and Travis think the film holds up, what they thought of Julia Roberts’ Oscar-nominated performance, and who was the sneaky MVP of the movie.

Finally, we have an incredible conversation with #1 draft pick, Heisman winner, and starting QB for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Baker Mayfield! We get into everything from why he thinks the Bucs have some unfinished business heading into this season, his early days as a walk-on QB, his iconic duel against Mahomes in 2016, the importance of being a “football house guy,” how he started a game for the Rams in less than 48 hours, shit talking strategies, relationship with Mike Evans, being a girl dad, getting welcome to the NFL by Fletcher Cox, and more!

And that wraps up season 3 of New Heights! We have to thank all the 92%ers who tuned in this season, all of the incredible guests who gave us their time, and the amazing crew that helped produce this show every week.
