“This time last year, I found myself just outside Mexico City, doing something I never imagined. A few weeks before, I received a call from my agent, Kim Smith, saying there was a network interested in me potentially hosting a reality TV show. At first, I wasn’t sure what to think, but then I found out it was Netflix — a global brand — and that definitely caught my attention,” Taylor wrote via X on March 26, 2025. “After a couple of meetings and 14 days later, I was on a plane to film Battle Camp (working title at the time). It was 30+ days of late nights and early mornings, trying to figure out how to swim in this brand-new ocean.”
The “Bussin’ With The Boys” podcast cohost gushed over the “amazing” cast and raved over how the production “team was something [he’d] never seen before.”
“A staff of over 400 people, all working together to create the best product possible, while trusting a football player with fake teeth to facilitate and drive this new show,” Taylor concluded. “I’m incredibly proud of what we created, and I’m excited for everyone to see it on April 23rd.”
