"I was like, 'Hey, can you check the back of my pants because I think I might have just s--- myself.' And he checks, and he says 'You're good.' " Spoiler alert: Jason was not, in fact, good.

"He has nothing to be ashamed of. I am here to have your back James," Jason added. Houston, 25, claimed in a post on X (formerly Twitter) that he had sat in Gatorade, resulting in the unfortunate stain on his white pants, but Jason told his podcast listeners he wasn't buying it. "Come on dude. Travis...you and I both know he ain't sitting on no Gatorade," Jason teased. "We all know what that is." After Jason's crappy confession, Travis joked, "Alright, I'm done talking about s---ting yourself," and the brothers moved on to a new topic. Close
