Travis and Jason Kelce have added another significant feather to their cap, this time off the football field with their thrilling New Heights podcast soaring to the pinnacle of Spotify's rankings. This achievement further solidifies the Kelce brothers' cultural influence as they continue to make waves in the sports and entertainment scene.
Front Office Sports reports that New Heights has officially secured the title of the number one sports podcast of 2025 on Spotify, marking a monumental moment for Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce. Launched in September 2022, the podcast delves into NFL insights, personal anecdotes, humor, and features major celebrity appearances, helping it dominate a competitive field of long-running sports shows.
According to the report, the show has surpassed heavyweights like Pardon My Take, The Bill Simmons Podcast, and The Pat McAfee Show, the latter ranking sixth. The Kelce brothers' blend of authenticity, banter, and headline-making interviews has consistently generated viral moments, turning the podcast into a pop cultural phenomenon.
A major contributor to the show's success is its star-studded guest list, which spans sports, Hollywood, and pop culture. The Kelces have welcomed luminaries such as Caitlin Clark, LeBron James, Shaquille O'Neal, Brad Pitt, Adam Sandler, and George Clooney. Specifically, the episode featuring Clooney dropped the same week the brothers learned they were No. 1.
Another defining moment came from the August 13 episode when Taylor Swift appeared for a two-hour conversation and announced her 12th album, "The Life Of A Showgirl." The episode quickly became the show's most-watched to date. During the Clooney episode, Travis opened up about his relationship, sharing candidly: "He never argued with Taylor Swift." Moments like these, combined with their natural sibling chemistry, have kept fans returning week after week and solidified the Kelces as media powerhouses.
This accomplishment highlights just how successfully the brothers have transitioned into digital creators while maintaining their NFL presence. As Travis gears up to face the Houston Texans on Sunday, December 7, with the Chiefs sitting at 6-6, his impact continues to extend far beyond the football field.
