Patrick Mahomes said Wednesday he found out that Taylor Swift was appearing on the “New Heights” podcast with boyfriend Travis Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce after the episode had already been recorded. Mahomes, however, didn’t get a direct heads-up.
Rather, Swift and Kelce called Mahomes’ wife Brittany: “Nah, it surprised me too,” Mahomes said, via Marleah Campbell of KCTV5. “I knew before y’all did just because they called me after the podcast was done — didn’t call me, they called Brittany — I was in the back of the FaceTime.”

Swift might just be the most popular musical artist in the world. But perhaps surprisingly, this will be her first ever appearance on the New Heights podcast. There’s a lot of excitement surrounding Swift’s appearance, which will release to the masses Wednesday at 7 p.m. ET on YouTube.
Taylor Swift might break the internet with ‘New Heights’ podcast appearance
For Taylor Swift, her appearance on New Heights coincides with the announcement of her next album. The show itself seemed to break that news. In the lead-up to the episodes’ release, New Heights posted a clip. In it, Taylor Swift’s album “The Life of a Showgirl” is promoted. Notably, however, in that clip, the cover art for the album was blurred. This will be her first album since “The Tortured Poets Department,” which was nominated for Album of the Year at the Grammys.
Mahomes will be among the millions listening Wednesday night. He hasn’t seen it yet, he said, so he’s excited to see it.
“I’m also super excited just knowing Taylor and seeing the process from just a little bit closer of how she makes the albums. It’s going to be amazing because of how much work she puts into it,” Mahomes said. “What better place to announce it than the New Heights podcast, where I feel like she can be herself and showcase who she is. I think people are going to be really excited to watch it tonight.
“I haven’t seen it yet; I seen a little bit of the clips just like everybody else, but I’ll be tuned in tonight at 7 p.m. ET. So, I’ll have something to watch on this night off that I have.”
