In a recent episode of the wildly popular New Heights podcast, NFL stars and brothers Jason and Travis Kelce treated their audience to a lively discussion that quickly turned into playful sibling banter.
Known for their chemistry and humor, the Kelce brothers didn鈥檛 disappoint as Jason took the opportunity to address a topic that鈥檚 been on the minds of many fans鈥擳ravis’s relationship with global pop sensation Taylor Swift.
“Alright, Trav, we need to talk about the elephant in the room,” Jason began with a dramatic clearing of his throat, setting the stage for what would be a memorable exchange. “Why the heck are you not out on the road supporting your girl Taylor on this Eras Tour of hers?”
Travis, who has been dating Swift for over a year, attempted to sidestep the question, citing his focus on the upcoming NFL season. “Ah, come on, Jace. You know I鈥檓 just trying to focus on football right now. The season is right around the corner鈥攇ot to stay dialed in, you know.”
But Jason wasn鈥檛 about to let his younger brother off the hook that easily. “Football, schmall,” he retorted. “Your girl is out there absolutely crushing it on stage every night, selling out stadiums left and right, and you鈥檙e just sitting at home? That鈥檚 not going to fly, bro.”
The conversation quickly devolved into the kind of playful sibling rivalry that has endeared the podcast to so many fans. Jason, ever the supportive husband, pointed out that if his wife, Kylie Kelce, were the one on tour, he would be there in a heartbeat. “Dude, if Kylie was out there performing in front of thousands of people every night, you know I鈥檇 be right there in the front row, singing along to every word,” Jason insisted. “There鈥檚 no way I鈥檇 let her do that alone. You鈥檝e got to be there for your girl, Trav.”
Caught off guard by his brother鈥檚 passionate plea, Travis could only laugh. “Alright, alright, I hear you, Jace,” he conceded. “But you know how Taylor is鈥攕he鈥檚 got that whole tour schedule completely dialed in. I don鈥檛 know if there鈥檚 even room for me up there.”
Unfazed, Jason pushed back, telling Travis he needed to find a way. “Well, you better find a way, man,” Jason said with a grin. “Because if my sister-in-law can come out and surprise the crowd at a few of those shows, there鈥檚 no excuse for you not to be up there tossing your best dance moves alongside her.”
The light-hearted exchange continued with Jason insisting that Travis was missing out on a golden opportunity to support Swift on her tour. Travis, in turn, tried to explain the logistical challenges, though it was clear his brother wasn鈥檛 buying it.
As the conversation wound down, Jason landed one final zinger: “Just promise me you鈥檒l at least try to make it out to a show or two, alright? Because if you don鈥檛, I鈥檓 going to tell Kylie, and then you鈥檙e really going to be in trouble.”
Since the episode aired, the exchange between the Kelce brothers has gone viral, sparking a wave of reactions from both NFL fans and Taylor Swift鈥檚 devoted “Swiftie” fanbase. Many have praised Jason鈥檚 enthusiastic efforts to encourage Travis to be a more involved boyfriend, with some even launching a social media campaign using the hashtag #SendTravisToTheErasTour.
Travis, however, has remained tight-lipped about his relationship and any potential touring plans, choosing instead to focus on his preparations for the upcoming NFL season. But with Jason firmly in his corner, it seems only a matter of time before the younger Kelce brother heeds his sibling鈥檚 advice and makes an appearance on the Eras Tour.
As Jason so eloquently put it, “If it were my wife out there doing her thing, there鈥檚 no way I鈥檇 miss it.” Fans are now hoping Travis takes that message to heart, and that they might soon see the NFL star joining his superstar girlfriend on stage.
Until then, the New Heights podcast continues to deliver the kind of engaging, humorous content that has made it a must-listen for sports fans and beyond.
