Wyatt, the daughter of NFL player Jason Kelce and his wife Kylie, made a surprise appearance in the podcast’s December 31 episode. The 23-year-old Clark, a star with the Indiana Fever, sent a festive gift to Jason: a pop shot portable basketball hoop. Upon opening the present, Jason enthusiastically attached the hoop to his dog’s crate.
As he called out to his four daughters, Jason noted his two-year-old daughter Bennett was more interested in playing than participating. However, Wyatt eagerly accepted the challenge.

Dressed in a pink Disney princess outfit, Wyatt made her way to the garage studio where Jason records. Jason remarked, “Oh my gosh, you are wearing the perfect attire. Come down here.”
Initially, Wyatt struggled with her shots. Jason encouraged her to try shooting one-handed “like Daddy.” Despite several misses, Clark praised Wyatt’s effort, noting her strength, referring to the attempts as “full-on baseball chuck.”
“You’re doing great!” Clark affirmed, while Travis chimed in with, “You’re killing it!”

Once Wyatt exited the scene, Clark reassured Jason, saying his daughter has “got a future” on the basketball court. Jason shared his experience introducing sports to his daughters, which had included soccer and gymnastics. He remarked that while his daughters were not particularly keen on watching sports yet, he remained hopeful about their engagement in the future. In a previous podcast episode, he mentioned, “I think she would do it now. She usually wants to watch some Disney movie or another game. But I’m hopeful that it’s gonna start to happen.”
