The closing segment has Jason and Travis thank both guest groups — the Ertzes and Knoxville — and direct listeners to follow the show @NewH1GHTSShow, check out Jackass: Best and Last in theaters June 26th, and subscribe to Julie Ertz's Style of Play podcast with Kealia Watt on Spotify. Travis offers a heartfelt note about the 92 percenters tuning in every week and credits the production team. The episode's final comedic beat comes courtesy of Knoxville himself, who sticks around long enough to roast Jason's shirt — comparing it to whorehouse drapes — which Jason gamely defends as 'the seasons getting brighter.' It's a light, fond close to a dense, three-segment episode.

Julie Ertz revealed her father was a kicker at LSU and used to train kids to kick and punt, giving her an early awareness of kicking mechanics.
