In a highly anticipated announcement, Travis and Jason Kelce confirmed that Taylor Swift will be a special guest on their podcast, New Heights, in its first episode of 2025, set to air on January 2. This revelation has sent Swift’s fans, affectionately known as “Swifties,” into a frenzy of excitement, as the pop superstar is expected to make her debut on the show.

The speculation surrounding Swift’s appearance intensified after the Kelce brothers hinted at a surprise guest during their latest episode. “We’ve been waiting on this one for a long time,” Jason Kelce, 37, remarked, while his brother Travis, 35, appeared to share a knowing grin. Some fans took to social media, expressing their enthusiasm and analyzing Travis’s reactions, with one user humorously questioning if it was a “Taylor smile.”

While the focus on Swift has dominated discussions, some fans speculated about other potential guests, including NBA stars Caitlyn Clark and LeBron James. However, the overwhelming consensus remains that Swift’s presence will be the highlight of the episode.

New Heights, which launched in 2022, has surged in popularity, particularly after Travis began dating Swift. This rise in viewership is a testament to the crossover appeal of both the NFL and the music industry, drawing fans from both spheres. The upcoming episode promises not only to feature Swift but also other notable guests, including Jason’s wife, Kylie Kelsey, who teased additional surprises during her own podcast.

As anticipation builds for the episode, Swifties and sports fans alike eagerly await what promises to be an unforgettable start to 2025, melding the worlds of football and pop music in a way that only the Kelce brothers and Taylor Swift can.
