Caitlin Clark reveals major concern for Taylor Swift's New Heights special appearance
The podcast appearance for the 14-time Grammy winner alongside boyfriend Travis Kelce, and his older brother Jason Kelce, will see Swift show the album cover for 'The Life of a Showgirl' and likely give a huge glimpse into the relationship of the 'Anti-Hero' singer and Chiefs tight end.
The most anticipated episode in 'New Heights' history will stream starting at 7 p.m. Eastern, with Clark clearly interested, but also revealing a concern that the live broadcast may not go as planned.
'Are we sure YouTube isn't going to crash tonight?' Clark said on X.
Her question quickly elicited a response from the official New Heights account - 'See you in the live chat!'
Clark is friends with both Swift and the Kelce brothers and beat her 'Karma' performer mate to being a guest on New Heights back in January.
Her appearance on New Heights came a few weeks before she joined Swift in a luxury suite in Kansas City for the Chiefs playoff game against the Houston Texans.
Clark's excitement to see Swift and Kelce interact on his podcast was already evident, as she shared the preview clip for the episode on her Instagram story.
The Fever guard also commented on the same video, 'AHHHHHHH!!!!!! LFGGGGGG'.
Clark and Kelce attended one night of the 'Eras Tour' together at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, with the Iowa alumnus going to three shows on Swift's stadium tour.
The one night Clark did not attend Swift's three-show stay in Indianapolis, she admitted on New Heights to looking to the home of the Colts to try and get a glimpse of the concert from her downtown residence.
YouTube has more than 120million daily users, making its website likely ready for the barrage of Swifties and NFL fans eagerly anticipating the episode.

The egg flight trend: Tim Dowling ranks 10 boiled egg appetisers - from perfect to never again
Generally speaking, the more TikTok trends you allow to pass you by in a year, the better. But some trends refuse to cease, and the egg flight is turning out to be one of them. The egg flight, in all its many forms, persists. Simply put, an egg flight is to hard-boiled eggs what a wine flight is to wine – a varietal sampling, presented in one sitting. Unlike devilled eggs, where the yolk is scooped out, mashed with mayonnaise and spices and piped back into its former cavity, the egg flight is just some eggs – most commonly three, in six upturned halves – with different stuff piled on top. The result is meant to be a quick but still fancy appetiser range, destined to impress your guests, your family, or at least the rest of TikTok. The originator and chief populariser of the egg flight (or #eggflight) is an American cookery blogger and TikToker called Alice Choi (AKA @hipfoodiemom1). She has been doing them for years, but her egg demonstrations first went viral this time last year, and egg-flight TikTok posts now number in the thousands. All over the world, people are still getting excited about their egg flights. Would-be egg-flight makers are encouraged to get creative and try new things, but in practice the discipline seems to involve a lot of imitation, in keeping with the average TikToker's overarching definition of originality: the exact same thing, but with me doing it. In that same spirit, here are 10 popular variations, dutifully copied and ranked. A quick note: my eggs were boiled for just under 11 minutes, plunged into ice water, then carefully peeled and halved. Before you begin, I recommend putting a small blob of mayonnaise on the plate beneath each egg half to stop it rocking back and forth while you dress it. 1. The Classic. In one of her viral tutorials, @hipfoodiemom1 offers the closest thing we may ever have to an Egg Flight Theory: the ideal egg requires something creamy, topped by something tangy, topped by something sour and/or crunchy. The Classic is the most basic combo to follow that formula and it's easily the best: mayo, dijon mustard and a slice of dill pickle. That's it – stop there. It's essentially a lazy person's devilled egg, and, honestly, it cannot be improved upon. 2. Kimchi. Another of Choi's creamy/tangy/sour stacks, with a mayo-mustard base and fermented cabbage at its apex. Overall this may be your best bet, since it's easier to buy good kimchi in the UK than it is to find a decent dill pickle. 3. Smoked salmon. A popular school of thought in egg-flight circles involves treating the egg as if it were some other foodstuff – in this case, a bagel layered with cream cheese, smoked salmon, capers, dill and possibly some poppy or sesame seeds. This sort of variation often flounders on its implicit unfulfilled promise – a hard-boiled egg is not a bagel, after all – but it works here because all the ingredients share a general breakfast vibe. 4. Caprese. Mozzarella, tomato, a single, appropriately sized basil leaf and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. By now you will have noticed a key drawback to the egg flight: you need a huge variety of ingredients – in very small amounts – to produce six completely different eggs. There is ultimately more shopping than cooking involved. The caprese salad egg is a nice idea, but at this point the notion of not bothering is also beginning to take hold. 5. Mexican. Across TikTok, you will find egg halves piled with a selection of some, if not all, of the following: guacamole, taco meat, tortilla slivers or crumbs, onion, tomato, sour cream, hot sauce, coriander, jalapeño. Of course that's way too many things – I strongly advise you to stick with a maximum of four. Anyway, these ingredients are not the problem. The problem is the hard-boiled egg at the bottom: it doesn't belong. 6. Pickled onion. Again, the rule of smooth-tangy-sour applies here – you need all three to offset the rubbery blandness of the egg. Choi pickles her own onions with rosemary and cinnamon and always has a jar on hand, but you can easily manage a quick pickle – thinly sliced onion steeped in salt and rice vinegar for half an hour. Or, in an emergency, you can just use mayo, mustard and raw onion, although I can't really imagine the set of circumstances that would lead to an egg-flight emergency. 7. Tzatziki. My only original contribution to the egg-flight canon, because I found that I had some tzatziki on hand – Greek yoghurt mixed with grated cucumber, minced garlic and chopped mint, with a sprinkling of paprika on top. I don't mean to blow my own horn, but this works better than perhaps it should. I have since seen other people on TikTok spooning tzatziki on eggs, and then pushing chickpeas into it. I cannot condone this. 8. BLT. You get the idea: bacon, lettuce, tomato, mayo. An enduring combination let down by the fact that the whole mouthful is still going to be 80% egg by weight – a flavour imbalance that simply cannot be corrected. It is possibly a little late in the game for me to confess that I don't really care for hard-boiled eggs, and I've already consumed more of them in an afternoon than I normally would in a year. 9. Caesar salad. Even if you love hard-boiled eggs – and I've made my position clear – you must eventually accept that the egg flight is a steeply descending staircase: the law of diminishing returns comes into effect once you've passed half a dozen variations. When you start making a caesar salad on top of an egg – lettuce, miniature croutons, dressing, parmesan shavings – you've taken things too far. It looks better in a photograph than it's ever going to taste. 10. Burger egg. Given my ambivalence toward the hard-boiled egg – which has long since curdled into full-blown hostility – the last variation I tried to make was always going to rank the lowest. This really was a disappointment, however: idiotically sized mini-burger, cheese square, tomato, ketchup. It's not a burger and it is not a fitting topping for an egg. Null points, and never again.

Legendary band announces next album and tour will be their last as they retire after 42 years
THRASH metal giants Megadeth have revealed the band's next tour and album will be their last. Founded by Dave Mustaine in 1983 after the singer's acrimonious departure from Metallica, the San Francisco band have consistently pumped out memorable riffs ever since. 2 But the band will call it a day after the completion of their tour next year. Mustaine said: 'There's so many musicians that have come to the end of their career, whether accidental or intentional. 'Most of them don't get to go out on their own terms on top, and that's where I'm at in my life right now. I have traveled the world and have made millions upon millions of fans and the hardest part of all of this is saying goodbye to them." He continued: 'We can't wait for you to hear this album and see us on tour. If there was ever a perfect time for us to put out a new album, it's now. 'If there was ever a perfect time to tour the world, it's now. This is also a perfect time for us to tell you that it's our last studio album. We've made a lot of friends over the years and I hope to see all of you on our global farewell tour. Don't be mad, don't be sad, be happy for us all, come celebrate with me these next few years. 'We have done something together that's truly wonderful and will probably never happen again,' he concludes. 'We started a musical style, we started a revolution, we changed the guitar world and how it's played, and we changed the world. The bands I played in have influenced the world. I love you all for it. Thank you for everything.' Devastated fans can't believe it. Another wrote: "This made me feel so sad." A third said: "Farewell, kings. It's been a great run!" Music video for Dave Mustaine's Megadeth hit Holy Wars... The Punishment Due The band are best known for albums such as Killing Is My Business… and Business Is Good!, Peace Sells… but Who's Buying?, and Rust in Peace. There has been a revolving door of members over the years with only Mustaine being ever-present. The current line up consists of Mustaine, James LoMenzo, Dirk Verbeuren and Teemu Mäntysaari. Megadeth are synonymous with skeletal mascot Vic Rattlehead and have released 16 albums to date, the last of which - The Sick, the Dying… and the Dead! - came out in 2022. Over the course of their career they've been nominated for 12 Grammys, winning their first and only gong in 2017 for their track Dystopia, which triumphed in the Best Metal Performance category. Mustaine, who overcame throat cancer in 2020, has had a long-standing rivalry with Metallica, for which he co-wrote early tracks such as Metal Militia, Phantom Lord, The Four Horsemen, Ride the Lightning, and The Call of Ktulu. Brian Slagel, Metal Blade Records owner, previously said: 'Dave was an incredibly talented guy, but he also had an incredibly large problem with alcohol and drugs. He'd get wasted and become a real crazy person, a raging megalomaniac, and the other guys just couldn't deal with that after a while. 'I mean, they all drank of course, but Dave drank more… much more,' Slagel continues. 'I could see they were beginning to get fed up of seeing Dave drunk out of his mind all the time.' But in 2010, tensions softened and the so-called Big Four of thrash - Anthrax, Slayer, Metallica and Megadeth - played together on the same bill. 2

New York Jets try out two new quarterbacks with reinforcements needed after latest injury blow
While Justin Fields' spot as the Jets' starting quarterback is secure, an injury to his primary backup forced the team to try out two quarterbacks on Thursday. Veteran passer Tyrod Taylor is set to miss the remainder of training camp after undergoing a knee scope this week. The procedure was deemed 'minor' by head coach Aaron Glenn, though the former Lions defensive coordinator has been noncommittal on whether or not he'll be ready for Week 1 against the Steelers. 'Hopefully, he'll be ready for Week 1,' Glenn told reporters on Tuesday. With that uncertainty surrounding Taylor's status, the Jets brought in quarterbacks Nathan Peterman and C.J. Beathard for workouts on Thursday. Peterman, who was on the Falcons' practice squad last year, was a fifth-round pick in 2017 and has appeared in 15 games (five starts) in stints with the Bills, Raiders and Bears. Four of Peterman's starts came in Buffalo, where he actually competed with Taylor for the starting job during his rookie season. Beathard, meanwhile, ended last season with the Jaguars after being re-signed from the Dolphins' practice squad. The 2017 third-rounder has 32 career appearances (13 starts) in time with the 49ers and Jaguars, and made 10 starts for San Francisco in his first two seasons. Both he and Peterman have not seen the field since the 2023 season, for Jacksonville and Chicago respectively. The Jets also have quarterbacks Adrian Martinez and Brady Cook listed as third and fourth respectively on their depth chart. Nonetheless, Fields seems to be entrenched as the team's starter after signing a two-year, $40million contract with the team in free agency. He went 4-2 in six starts last season for the Steelers and flashed his incredible rushing ability, but he was ultimately replaced by Russell Wilson - who was always meant to be the starter but missed time with a calf injury. Now, Wilson is also in New York with the Giants as both look to hit the ground running with their new teams. Fields and the Jets will host Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers on September 7.
