Taylor Swift On New Heights Podcast: A Marketing Masterclass For The Ages
Taylor Swift was never sporty. At least, that what she said herself. Yet this week, she dominated one of the most male-coded corners of sports culture. On her record-breaking debut appearance on New Heights, the football podcast hosted by her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and his brother Jason, the global pop phenomenon openly admitted that until recently she didn't know the rules when it came to football. Making an appearance on a podcast by bros, for bros, Swift announced the release of her twelfth studio album, titled The Life of a Showgirl, drawing an audience of 1.3 million live viewers on YouTube, nearly double the audience that tuned in live to Donald Trump's much-hyped appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience during his 2024 election run. Taylor Swift Sets the Price It's hard not to see these numbers as a sweet win for Swift, especially in light of Donald Trump's September 2024 comments on Fox & Friends, where he dismissed her as someone who 'seems to always endorse a Democrat' warning she would 'probably pay a price for it…in the marketplace.' If this week proved anything, it's that when it comes to the cultural zeitgeist that is Swift, far from paying a price, Swift is a woman who sets the price, and the market has shown us time again, it's more than willing to pay. Taylor Swift Proves Women Can Expand Culture Of course, the NFL already knows what Swift means for its bottom line. Stadium shots of her in a red lip did more for ticket sales and broadcast ratings than most quarterbacks could dream of. And yet, much has been made and mocked of her relationship with Kelce and the NFL. She's been booed in stadiums, joked at by mainstream media, and roasted online to the extent that both the NFL and high-profile players have publicly defended her right to attend. Perhaps that's why the impact of this podcast appearance is even more significant. It offered proof that women don't just consume culture, they expand it. This was a two hour podcast episode that shattered decades of siloed marketing assumptions, proving audiences are far more fluid than the old playbook allows. It signaled that women's fandom is not niche. It moves markets, breaks records, and has the power to reshape industries. Whether it's ticket sales, album streams, or podcast viewership, the Swift phenomenon is measurable, massive, and undeniable. The Taylor Swift Effect: Viewership Earthquake The numbers speak for themselves. Swift's appearance didn't just break records, it reshaped the audience. Within 24 hours of the episode's release, female viewership on Spotify increased by over 600%, marking the largest single-day demographic shift in New Heights' history, with Spotify reporting, the episode had become one of this past year's highest-performing podcasts within just one day of its release Taylor Swift Shows Curiosity Is Currency It further demonstrated that curiosity has huge commercial leverage. Swift did not posture as an authority on the NFL, instead admitting she didn't know what a tight end was when her and Kelce first connected, and is now as she describes 'obsessed' with the sport. That admission is more than charming self-deprecation- it's a direct challenge to decades of sports culture that has often patronized or dismissed women's interest whose engagement was rarely seen as influential. Swift's approach flipped that script entirely. By showing that enthusiasm, curiosity, and authenticity can resonate with millions of viewers, she sent a message that influence isn't just about technical mastery and enthusiasm can be as influential in growing viewership as expertise. The opportunity lies in connecting audiences, breaking assumptions, and reshaping who gets to matter in sports culture. Taylor Swift's Masterclass in Modern Influence In an era where media, sports, and politics compete for attention, Taylor Swift has shown us just how cultural influence is evolving. For two hours, Swifties and sports fans shared a moment that made her more than a performer: she became a connector, wielding a form of soft power rarely seen so visibly from women. This wasn't just a record-breaking media moment- it was a masterclass in marketing in the digital age, where shaping culture, connecting communities, and turning curiosity into commerce defines success.

'Skibidi' and 'tradwife' among words added to Cambridge Dictionary
"Skibidi", "tradwife" and other slang terms popularised on social media are among thousands of new words to be added to the Cambridge Dictionary this year. Skibidi is a gibberish term coined by the creator of a viral animated video series on YouTube, while tradwife is a shortening of "traditional wife" – a married mother who cooks, cleans and posts on social media. More than 6,000 new words are included, including those that relate to remote working and tech giants. "Internet culture is changing the English language and the effect is fascinating to observe and capture in the dictionary," said lexical programme manager Colin McIntosh. Skibidi is defined in the dictionary as "a word that can have different meanings such as 'cool' or 'bad', or can be used with no real meaning as a joke". An example of its use is "What the skibidi are you doing?" Reality TV star Kim Kardashian revealed her familiarity with the phrase when she posted a video on Instagram showing a necklace engraved with "skibidi toilet" – the name of the YouTube series. As well as new phrases, some shortened versions of existing terms have been added, including "delulu" – a play on the word "delusional", with a similar definition: "believing things that are not real or true, usually because you choose to". An increase in remote working since the pandemic has seen "mouse jiggler" – a device or piece of software used to make it seem as though you are working when you are not – gain its place in the dictionary. Some composite terms such as "broligarchy" have also been added. Merging "bro" and "oligarchy", it means "a small group of men, especially men owning or involved in a technology business, who are extremely rich and powerful, and who have or want political influence". It was used to describe tech leaders Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg attending Donald Trump's inauguration in January. Follow Cambridgeshire news on BBC Sounds, Facebook, Instagram and X.

Golden Retriever Crashes Human Mom's Bath in the Sweetest Way
Golden Retriever Crashes Human Mom's Bath in the Sweetest Way originally appeared on PetHelpful. Dogs often bring us their favorite toys and other prized possessions as little gifts. I work from home, and after a few hours at my desk, I'll stand up to find my dog's toys (and sometimes even her favorite blankie!) piled around my chair. For Lucy, a Golden and Labrador Retriever mix, her gift-giving happens when her mom is trying to relax in the bath. The dog loves showing off her treasures during mom's me-time. Watch to see what Lucy brings her this time. She comes in with some very funny things! Lucy is the cutest! Mom's lucky she gets such fun entertainment during bath time! Which was your favorite random object? We cracked up when she brought in the disco balls and was willing to fight the orange cat for them, and then laughed again when she brought her mom a packet of rice!Commenters Funny Reactions to Lucy Bringing Her Mom Random Things Viewers left more than 200 comments about Lucy's antics, and some of them were pretty funny. We couldn't agree more with @sofi who shared, "The disco ball scene took me out LOL!" @Betty Tristan's Mom said, "I always wonder where the heck does she get all that random stuff and how!" @nickyarcher6 agreed, "Such a diverse mixture of things LOL!" @cl0ver added, "I kinda live for Lucy's Show & Tell..." @Fluffy & Merlin joked, "This is like the bathtime version of the showcase on The Price is Right. But MUCH more fun!" Of course, there always has to be at least one negative commenter in the bunch that tries to ruin a good time. In this case it was the person who said, "Would be more believable if we saw her grabbing these random items. Should've stopped at the first video and let it take off from there." Lucy's mom wasn't having it, though: "I have videos of her grabbing things from a security camera so you can see if she does it herself." Everybody loves seeing the random treasures Lucy brings to show off! And for the naysayers, no one's forcing you to watch! You can always just scroll on by and carry on with your day; no need to be a Negative Nelly.
