    Jason Kelce is set to host a new late-night talk show

    The retired NFL star has announced that he is launching a new late show for ESPN called 'They Call It Late Night With Jason Kelce'


    The former Philadelphia Eagles star shared the news about the show during an appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' and revealed it will start on January 3 with hour-long episodes for five consecutive Fridays.

    Speaking on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!', he said: "We are going to have a bunch of guys up there, legends of the game, friends that I played the game with, coaches, celebrities, while also incorporating NFL Films.

    "We are going to have a live band, Snack Time, being able to play some of these iconic NFL songs."

    Jason also revealed that the show will be filmed in front of a live audience at Union Transfer in Philadelphia.

    He added: "It's going to be a celebration, in Philadelphia."

    Previously, Jason said that he thinks his "loving" bond with brother Travis Kelce is behind the success of their podcast.

    Jason and his Kansas City Chiefs tight end sibling - who is dating Taylor Swift - host the sporting show 'New Heights' together and the 'Monday Night Countdown' commentator thinks listeners tune in because of their "open" nature and "exciting" lives.

    Shortly after signing a nine-figure deal with Wondery for the podcast, Jason said during ESPN's media day in August: "I think on the podcast, you get, first of all, an organic, loving relationship between two brothers. We're honest with each other. And it comes across.

    "And we have good personalities that I think generally audience members appreciate, and like to want to watch and listen to, which I don't know if I agree fully with that, but they're there.

    "I think that we're very, very open people by nature, and I think that we share things, and we obviously are living exciting lives that people want to follow. And then all that stuff helps ... because the more people watch, the more money advertisers spend."
