Why Jason and Travis Kelce Are Sending a Massive Thanks to Swifties

Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce

Jason and Travis Kelce have really taken their podcast to New Heights this year, and they believe the Swifties had something to do with it.

The two brothers are certainly feeling enchanted to have met Taylor Swift, as Travis' relationship with the music superstar has not only caused a major upsurge in their podcast listenership but has also helped them reach their latest accomplishment: becoming iHeartRadio's Podcast of the Year.

During the 2024 iHeartRadio Podcast Awards on Monday, March 11, Travis and Jason were honored with the impressive achievement as they accepted the award remotely after missing the ceremony.

"We won podcast of the year," Jason, 36, announced in a video of their acceptance speech, while Travis, 34, appeared to almost be in disbelief about the news.

"We are honored to accept this award. Podcast of the year is big s—t," the Kansas City Chiefs player said, while his big brother made a point to thank all the fans that voted for the New Heights podcast.

"Listen, this is an incredible honor, especially for two jabronies like us, to receive an award like this is beyond humbling," the newly-retired NFL player said. "We would be remiss if we didn't immediately thank all of the 92%ers out there AKA Swifties who voted for us to win this award. "

While Travis giggled at the mention of Taylor's giant fanbase, the tight end also expressed his gratitude for their listeners, as well as the production team and crew who help them release a new episode every week.

A video of the sweet moment, shared to the iHeartRadio social media pages, also mentioned Swifties in the caption, which read, "Shoutout to the 92%ers and of course...the #Swifties."
