There was a lot of speculation surrounding the next guest for the “New Heights” podcast. Taylor Swift fans were hoping that she would finally make her debut on the show for her boyfriend, Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs.
While Swift’s seemingly inevitable guest appearance on the show won’t happen in the next episode, Travis and his brother Jason Kelce made up for it by bringing in a very special guest. This comes in the form of Hollywood icon Will Ferrell, who will star in the “New Heights” episode that drops on Friday.
The show gave its fans a sneak peek of the highly anticipated episode ahead of its airing. In the preview, Jason Kelce is seen delivering one of the best introductions you’ll ever witness — one that was apt for the gravity of the situation at hand.

Jason Kelce ran through the myriad of characters Ferrell has played in his movies, which according to a revelation made by the brothers in their previous episode, will be one of the main topics of conversation in the Ferrell episode.
The 57-year-old award-winning actor wasted no time delivering his first joke right after Jason Kelce’s epic spiel. “Best intro ever,” Ferrell reacted. “That was soothing. I wanna play that on a loop to fall asleep to.” Travis Kelce also did his bit to hype the intro. He joined his brother in mimicking Ferrell’s famed “Frank the Tank” gesture from the 2003 comedy classic “Old School.”
However, it was Jason Kelce and his intro that captured the attention of the fans, and they all said the same thing about it.
“Ok but it really was an excellent intro,” a comment on X read.
“Jason’s intro of every guest is just (expletive) perfection. The amount of money he could make on cameo just providing anyone’s introduction would save lives,” said another.
“That was so good, Jason’s best intro yet!I’m so excited for this episode!!” a fan reacted.
“Jason with the best introduction 10/10 !!! Can’t wait for this one !” posted a user.
“Without question, this is the most I’ve ever looked forward to a show. I can’t wait,” claimed another.
“Legendary intro,” a supporter wrote. Jason and Travis Kelce were thrilled to have Ferrell on the show, and their excitement has clearly infected their fans as well.
