It’s a big day for Swifties! Tonight, Taylor Swift joined her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and his brother Jason on their show New Heights for her first-ever podcast appearance.
In a special pre-season episode, Swift shared her and Travis’s origin story; discussed how she finally bought back her masters; and revealed the cover of her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, out in October.
Below, Vogue’s resident Swifties share all their thoughts on the New Heights x Taylor Swift episode.
Florence O’Connor: Sorry, but it’s such a tease when they have a countdown after it hits the time it is meant to go live. Fake news that it started at 7 p.m.
Irene Kim: YouTube hasn’t broken yet, despite 455,312 Swifties waiting on the New Heights channel right now.
Kim: Wow, it started promptly at 7:01 p.m.! I love.
O’Connor: OMG, she’s so pretty!
Kim: I always forget what Taylor’s normal “speaking voice” sounds like because I’m so used to just listening to her music.
O’Connor: Wait, where did she go? Come back! I don’t care about the men!
Kim: Omg, 774,809 viewers now. Swiftie nation unite.
O’Connor: What does “92%ers” mean? Sorry, this is my first time watching this podcast.
Kim: That’s the New Heights fan base, Flo!!! (I occasionally watch the podcast to get some Swiftie intel.)
Kim: Can we get Jason Kelce to host the Met Gala livestream in 2026? This energy and intro is through the roof.
O’Connor: I’m laughing that Jason is on Zoom. Not even Taylor Swift being on the podcast will get that man to leave Philly.
O’Connor: I’m so obsessed with her—like, why am I beaming right now, just listening to her speak!
Kim: Imagine if the Swifties and the 92%ers came together, we could rule the world.
Kim: OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG.
O’Connor: “This podcast got me a boyfriend!” My boyfriend works for a podcast, too!
Kim: OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! Okay, do I need to look into the podcasting world for my next boyfriend now?
O’Connor: Idk, it’s been three years and he’s still yet to confess his love for me live on air.
