Taylor Swift’s podcaster boyfriend has a new deal with Amazon

Taylor Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and his brother Jason have inked a $100 million deal to hand over distribution of their sports podcast series, New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce, to Amazon’s Wondery publisher, reports The Wall Street Journal. The deal gives subscribers to Wondery Plus “early and ad-free” access to the popular series, Amazon announced.

Wondery Plus subscribers will also get a once-a-year livestream of the Kelces’ show, according to the Journal. Otherwise, folks who listen to New Heights (which launched in 2022 and has since become one of the top US podcasts) on other platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, or watch it on YouTube, probably won’t notice much of a difference.

“Wondery understands the shared vision and will offer a wealth of experience and resources to take us to new heights,” said the two cohosts in Amazon’s announcement. “We are going to create some groundbreaking moments together through this partnership.” The brothers Kelce will give Wondery opportunities for other live events and first dibs on any product lines either of them decides to introduce, the Journal writes.

Podcast deals like this, which lack the total exclusivity of Spotify’s older deals, include Call Her Daddy and SmartLess, both of which SiriusXM nabbed this year. New Heights joins other Wondery Plus early access shows like Dax Shepard’s Armchair Expert, which Wondery secured distribution rights for in July.
