Travis Kelce revealed that Taylor Swift was upset when Jason Kelce once called him at 7:30 am to ask for help with his workout. The incident emerged during Wednesday's episode of the brothers' 'New Heights' podcast, where Travis recalled initially fearing something terrible had happened to his older brother.

Jason, a retired Philadelphia Eagles centre, was participating in 'Squatober', a month-long fitness challenge focused on squat-based workouts. He called Travis to ask him to act as a spotter while lifting weights.

Travis explained why the unexpected call immediately worried him.

'I get a call at 7:30 in the morning. In my mind, I'm thinking worst-case scenario,' he said. 'I'm like, "Oh, s**t. Is everything okay? Maybe after the run, Jason's in the hospital, he blew his knee out or something."'

However, Jason simply needed assistance with his exercise routine. 'I was just like, "No way!"' Travis recalled.

As he prepared to leave the bedroom, Swift made her feelings about the early interruption clear. 'I'm walking out of the room, and Taylor's like, "This is f**ked up,"' Travis said. 'And I'm just like, "Nah, it'll be good. It'll be good!"'

The incident highlighted the humorous family dynamic that has helped make 'New Heights' popular with sports and entertainment audiences.

Jason had brought two 25-pound weight plates with him to Kansas City to continue his fitness challenge while travelling. Travis joked that the decision was 'the most meathead thing I think I've ever seen Jason do'.

The brothers launched their podcast in 2022, combining NFL discussions with personal anecdotes and celebrity interviews. Their conversations have also offered glimpses into Travis' relationship with Swift.

One memorable story involved Travis attempting to give Swift his phone number through a friendship bracelet at her Eras Tour concert in July 2023. The gesture eventually helped spark their relationship.

Swift has also featured in the brothers' stories about life away from football, with Travis frequently sharing amusing details about their interactions.
