Taylor Swift has helped Travis Kelce achieve new heights with his podcast. Jason shared that fans chose their Swift special episode as one of the best episodes of 2025 on Apple’s Best Podcast Episodes of the Year.
Jason revealed, “Our Taylor episode was named one of the best podcast episodes of 2025.” Travis beamed with pride, “She’s just so magical,” to which the former Philadelphia Eagles alum nodded in affirmation.
Furthermore, Jason playfully commented, “One of them? What is beating that one? Are there other ones up there? There’s nothing even coming close to that.” The older Kelce brother quipped, “Thank you, Apple, for putting us up there, for doing pretty much nothing and just having the most famous person in the world hop on our show.”
Interestingly, Swift marked her first appearance on the August 13 episode of the New Heights podcast. Besides announcing her album The Life of a Showgirl, the global popstar spoke about various other aspects of her personal life. Swift discussed her love for baking sourdough bread and gushed over her partner.
At that time, Swift revealed, “I owe a lot to this podcast. This podcast got me a boyfriend ever since Travis decided to use it as his personal dating app about two years ago.” The Swift special episode became New Heights’ most-watched podcast of all time and currently boasts 13 million views within 24 hours.
Additionally, it achieved a new YouTube record by clocking 1.3 million concurrent livestream viewers.
At the time, Jason joked that this is the “epitome of numerology,” referencing Swift’s love for her lucky number 13. (via Billboard)
