This New Year is bringing fun and excitement to Philly! After hanging his cleats from the NFL, Jason Kelce is now stepping up into a new role and that is – “They Call It Late Night with Jason Kelce.” But ever since this news has broken, many wondered who’s gonna grace the stage as guests. However, the wait is over now!
During the Lions and the 49ers game on Monday night football, color commentator Joe Buck revealed the names of the guests of Jason Kelce on January 10. He revealed that he and his wife and cheerleader, Michelle Beisner-Buck, are going to be the guests on the second Friday at the show, by saying, “It’s beloved in Philly. Great place to host a late-night show on ESPN. Michelle and I will be guests on the second Friday installment of the show in January.”
So, it’s obvious for him to inform his listeners how he is feeling at the moment. Therefore, explaining his current situation, on the LIVE call, Buck expressed, “I’ll be anxious to see what we can and cannot say at 1 a.m. eastern on ESPN.” Well, his co-announcer Troy Aikman, who was in the same booth, motivated him for it by saying, “Let it fly,” from the LIVE call.
Giving further information about Jason Kelce’s show, Joe Buck said, “Well, the premiere of They Call It Late Night with Jason Kelsey is Friday night at 1 a.m. Eastern on ESPN and ESPN+. The show comes to you from Union Transfer Concert Hall in Philadelphia and will run for five straight Fridays. It’s been a hit here at ESPN.” Besides this, in the first show, it’s likely that Travis Kelce would be big brother’s guest, after his “pick me” request.
In addition, in the shared footage, Kelce was seen being surprised by the massive tomahawk steak, which he was given to eat while breaking down the NFC title game rematch between the 49ers and Lions. His sense of humor and entertainment were enough to tell how his upcoming show was going to be.
