Travis and Jason Kelce have once again proven their dominance—not just in sports but in the podcasting world as well.
Their hit show, New Heights, was recently named Best Sports Podcast at the 2025 iHeart Podcast Awards, adding yet another accolade to their growing list of achievements.
A $100 Million Power Move Pays Off
The award-winning podcast, which launched in September 2022, has experienced a meteoric rise, thanks in part to Travis’ high-profile romance with Taylor Swift.
The show’s success caught the attention of Amazon’s podcast network, Wondery, which acquired New Heights last year in a massive $100 million deal.
The investment is clearly paying off, as the podcast continues to dominate the charts and captivate listeners.
The Episode That Changed Everything
One of the most talked-about moments in the podcast’s history came during the summer of 2023 when Travis first mentioned his interest in Swift.
This came just after her sold-out Eras Tour performances at Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Kansas City Chiefs.
That seemingly casual conversation sparked what would become one of the most talked-about celebrity relationships of the decade.
A Winning Streak in Podcasting
This is not the first time New Heights has been recognized for its excellence.
The Kelce brothers previously took home the Podcast of the Year award at the same event last year.
Their ability to blend football insights, brotherly banter, and pop culture moments has made them a fan favorite in the sports media landscape.
Will Travis and Taylor Make a Red Carpet Appearance?
With the iHeartRadio Music Awards set to take place on Monday in Los Angeles, fans are wondering if Travis and Swift will make an appearance together.
Swift, who is nominated in ten categories—including Artist of the Year and Favorite Surprise Guest for bringing Travis on stage during her London show—has been keeping a relatively low profile since the Chiefs’ Super Bowl loss to the Eagles.
Life After Football for Jason, One More Season for Travis
While Jason officially retired from professional football last year, Travis announced last month that he would continue playing for at least one more NFL season.
In the meantime, the brothers are keeping busy with their podcast, recently welcoming Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford as a surprise guest.
Will Taylor Join the Podcast?
One of the biggest questions on fans’ minds is whether Swift herself will make a guest appearance on New Heights.
Despite Travis’ frequent mentions of their relationship, the 14-time Grammy winner has yet to be interviewed by her boyfriend and his older brother.
With the podcast’s popularity continuing to soar, a Taylor Swift episode might just be the ultimate game-changer.
What’s next for New Heights? If the past few years are any indication, the Kelce brothers are just getting started.
