The official NFL season countdown is on, and things are heating up, especially for Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. While the Chiefs are still recovering from last season’s Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Kelce has kept plenty busy in the offseason with his hit podcast, New Heights, co-hosted with his brother and former Philadelphia Eagles center, Jason Kelce.
On Monday night, the Kelce brothers dropped the trailer for this week’s episode, and it’s one that Swifties have been dreaming about. For the first time ever, Taylor Swift will be joining the New Heights podcast. The pop superstar used the moment to strategically announce her 12th studio album, making her debut on the show a double surprise.
