Jason Kelce and Taylor Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce thanked their supporters for their big triumph, particularly Taylor Swift’s devoted Swifties.
On Monday night, March 11, the 2024 iHeartPodcast Awards aired live from SXSW in Austin, Texas. During the show, the Kelce brothers’ podcast New Heights won Podcast of the Year. They couldn’t attend the event, but they did send in a video of their reaction to the win. The former Philadelphia Eagles star and four-time Super Bowl champion thanked everyone for listening to their show, especially the Swifties.
“This is an incredible honour, especially for two Jabronis like us,” Jason Kelce stated.
“To receive an award like this is beyond humbling and we’d be remiss if we didn’t immediately thank all the 92%’ers out there a.k.a Swifties, who voted for us to win this award,” he went on to say.
“Thank you guys for everything,” Travis said. “We have the best fanbase in the world. Thank you for voting every single day, every month, and every hour of the day.”
Jason and Travis Kelce created their podcast, New Heights, in 2022. Since then, their show has grown to be one of the most popular sports podcasts in the industry. The Kelce Brothers also received the prize for Best Overall Ensemble. Their stunning win at the iHeartPodcast Awards comes just after they revealed some fresh information concerning the future of their show.
Over the weekend, a billboard surfaced promoting a live podcast taping at Cincinnati’s Nippert Stadium. The event was verified by the show’s official X/Twitter account, which also stated that further information about the live podcast shows would be available “coming soon.”
