Look out, Joe Rogan.<\/p>\n

The latest episode of Travis and Jason Kelce\u2019s podcast\u00a0New Heights\u00a0exploded in popularity thanks to the duo\u2019s in-depth interview with\u00a0Taylor Swift. The pop mogul announced her new album,\u00a0The Life of a Showgirl, and gave what might be her longest and most candid interview ever, clocking in at more than two hours.<\/p>\n

Wednesday\u2019s episode (watch it below) has already racked up more than 10 million views on YouTube in less than 20 hours. The episode is already the most popular episode of the podcast ever, surpassing the previous No. 1, which had Jason\u2019s spouse and podcaster Kylie Kelce as the guest. And this doesn\u2019t count all the other ways a fan could consume the podcast. A representative for Spotify said the episode generated a 3,000 percent increase in new listeners for\u00a0New Heights<\/em>, and the number of female listeners jumped 618 percent.<\/p>\n

Comparing the YouTube views to podcast king Joe Rogan, the Taylor Swift episode would currently rank around the 50th most popular Rogan episode ever. Rogan\u2019s biggest episode on YouTube was a discussion about UFOs with Bob Lazar and Jeremy Corbell (64 million views), followed by Rogan\u2019s interview with Donald Trump last fall (59 million).\u00a0New Heights<\/em>\u00a0often ranks as a Top 10 podcast, while Rogan\u2019s JRE is often No. 1, and it will be interesting to see if\u00a0Heights<\/em>\u00a0moves into the top spot for a week, especially since the Swift episode is still racking up views.<\/p>\n

The numbers also come despite the live stream seemingly crashing near the end of the podcast around the time when Swift pulled out her new album cover to show her fans. \u201cWe hit a glitch but will be back shortly\u201d the\u00a0New Heights\u00a0X account posted\u00a0before later tweeting, \u201cShoutout all the 92%ers and Swifties for actually helping us break the internet.\u201d Oddly enough, WNBA star and Swift fan Caitlin Clark predicted, \u201cAre we sure YouTube isn\u2019t going to crash tonight?\u201d Yet a spokesperson for YouTube tells\u00a0THR\u00a0that the problem actually wasn\u2019t on their end.<\/p>\n

Among\u00a0the revelations on the podcast: Swift collaborated with Sabrina Carpenter for a track. Also, after years of collaborating with Jack Antonoff, Swift has reunited with hitmakers Max Martin and Shellback, who previously worked with Swift on hits like \u201cBlank Space\u201d and \u201cShake It Off\u201d \u2014 suggesting the album will feel more pop-driven rather than the more downbeat and minimalist style of her recent work.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt just comes from the most infectiously joyful, wild, dramatic place I was in in my life,\u201d Swift said on the podcast.<\/p>\n

Swift also announced on the podcast that the new 12-track album will be released Oct. 3.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
