Show Intro: First Episode Outtakes and Season 5 News
At 9:18 · chapter starts 6:00
The laughs come early as the hosts roll footage from their very first recording session — Travis asking whether he's supposed to answer his own questions, Jason telling him to just read the cue cards, and both fumbling through the simplest possible open. The contrast with where the show stands now — a sold-out live run at the historic Orpheum, a Wondery partnership, and a global audience — is the implicit punchline. Travis announces that when New Heights returns for Season 5 next September, it will officially cross 200 episodes, a milestone that prompts genuine emotion from both brothers. They credit the 92%ers for making 'a dream we could have never even dreamt.'
New Heights Season 5 Will Hit Episode 200
When New Heights premieres Season 5 next September, it will officially hit its 200th episode. The hosts rolled outtakes from Episode 1 — Travis asking how to record, Jason reminding him to just read — to show how far they've come from two guys in a room with no idea what they were doing.
