Taylor said, "There were songs that I called 'From The Vault' songs, and there was one which I think is maybe my favorite song I've ever written, called 'All Too Well (10 Minute Version).' There were originally so many more verses in that song than ended up on the album when I originally put out 'Red.'"
'I heard reports of people saying they got actual amnesia after the concerts'
Taylor opened up on various other aspects of her life on the podcast, including her Eras tour vision. "I wanted to show fans and especially younger fans, visuals and performance art that was important to me as a kid and inspired me to want to do this [be a singer]," she said of her record-busting Eras Tour encompassing her entire career's work. "So wanted elements of musical theater, broadway, ballet, things you would see in an opera."

"Who thinks like this?" Travis asked.
"I just watched the whole tour, I thought it was amazing but I didn't know all of this," Jason said.
"I wanted it to be references I thought were high concept and high value, and do it all in one concert," Taylor continued. "But I wanted to do it at the highest intensity, rapid fire, you're seeing something new every 15 to 30 seconds and so it feels like you're scrolling in an algorithm. And so when I heard reports of people saying they got actual amnesia after the concerts, I was like, 'Oh I think we did it.'"
On the podcast, Travis revealed that he gives credit to the Eras Tour for his relationship with Swift. 'As much as…you want to give 'New Heights' credit, I give the Eras Tour credit,' he said.
'Yeah? Tell me more,' Taylor replied.
'Because if I never would have gone to that show and just been mesmerized and just been captivated and then left with such a desire to want to meet you, I would have never went on here and told everybody how butt-hurt I was,' Travis continued. 'I had never been so engulfed in the curiosity of who you were.'

Jason said in response, 'The best part of that statement is that you didn't know what the word engulfed meant before you met Taylor'
Travis then explained how Taylor ultimately 'knocked his socks off.' He said, 'It's like you see you on the stage and you see how crazy you can get an entire stadium going and then I get you in a room and it's like I've known you forever. It's like the easiest conversation I ever had and it was just so much fun. It knocked my socks off.'

Taylor Swift set to debut Super Bowl in 2026? Here's what the easter eggs from New Heights point to

Baby, let the clownery games begin! Taylor Swift dropped hints about a possible Super Bowl debut and fans have gone wild with speculations.(AFP) Taylor Swift recently appeared as a special guest on her boyfriend, Travis Kelce and his brother, Jason's New Heights podcast, and Swifties have once more whipped out their hats and magnifying glasses, chasing after easter egg trails that the popstar might have dropped - because, after all, nothing is coincidence when it comes to the queen of easter eggs. The show was packed with fresh Swift intel - a new album, previously unheard details about her romance with Kelce, and a scoop into her most recent hobbies that have kept her occupied - and the latter has struck a chord among fans. Now let's be real, the pop queen does not say or do anything without having a hidden strategy, and the Swifties know that! Speculation is rife on the internet about a possible connection between a certain sourdough obsession and the 60th Super Bowl's halftime performer. The sourdough connection Tay-Tay raved on and on about a sourdough obsession that has apparently taken over her life: 'The sourdough's taken over my life in a huge way. I'm really talking about bread 60 percent of the time now.' Rookies might have let that slide as a casual remark about her pastimes, but Swifties know better. All the sourdough chatter is being kneaded into theories about the popstar's possible Super Bowl halftime debut - a stage Swift has never graced before. Super Bowl 2026 will take place at Levi's Stadium, the home ground of the San Francisco 49ers'. And, here's where it gets interesting - the 49ers' mascot goes by the name Sourdough Sam. So all the bread talk could actually be pointing towards a possible Super Bowl debut!

The Super Bowl! Hmm…curioser and curioser. Taylor also mentioned the number 47, after Jason Kelce's bombastic introduction at the beginning of the show. She thanked Jason saying, 'Thank you for screaming for like 47 seconds for me. That was so nice.' Believe it or not, her 47th stop in the Eras Tour was where? Levi's Stadium, where Super Bowl 2026 is set to take place! Moreover, the pop icon confirmed her love for numerology in the show: "I love numerology. I love math stuff. I love dates," the 35-year-old shared. "That stuff, I find really fun." Nice try Taylor, we'll take it from here. Eagle-eyed fans have also pointed out that this year marks Travis Kelce's 13th year in the NFL, and 13 just happens to be Taylor's favorite number. Incoming more numerological speculations… 4+9 = 13 - The San Francisco 49ers are hosting the 60th Super Bowl. 47+13 = 60 - Taylor, in fact, mentioned the number 47 for a second time in the episode while humorously exaggerating that the Eras Tour spanned 47,000 countries.

Phew, that was a lot of Swiftie speculation! Well they might be just that, online speculation and nothing more, but when it comes to Taylor Swift, the Queen of Easter Eggs, you can never be too sure. Only time, and Ms Swift, can confirm the speculations, but we will find out sooner rather than later - the Super Bowl announces halftime performers in September, so sit tight Swifties!

‘If Virat Kohli reduces that aggression, he…': Sreesanth breaks down RCB star's personality, says ‘I think he is…'

Since India's Champions Trophy final victory this year, Virat Kohli hasn't featured in any international match. The veteran announced his Test retirement during IPL 2025, and so didn't play in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. S Sreesanth analysed Virat Kohli's personality.(REUTERS) Kohli also announced his retirement from T20Is last year, and there have been question marks over his ODI future too. Rohit Sharma faces a similar issue, having retired from T20Is and Tests. But the pair have also publicly said that they would like to participate in the 2027 World Cup. S Sreesanth on Virat Kohli's aggression Speaking on a YouTube show recently, S Sreesanth spoke about Kohli's so-called aggressive personality during cricket matches, and called it an 'obsession'. 'Noting (on whether he would change anything). What other calls aggression, I call it passion. Is Virat Kohli aggressive? No. I think he is obsessed. Virat's aggression, people say, is a lot. I would say if he reduces that aggression, he won't be the same player,' he said. Kohli is expected to make his next India appearance during the upcoming Australia Tour, scheduled for later this year, which will also consist of ODIs. Meanwhile, Sreesanth also recalled the infamous IPL 2008 slap incident, where Harbhajan Singh hit him. 'When I told my daughter, 'This is Bhajji pa, he has played with me,' she immediately said, 'No, I won't say hi.' I could not understand why. Maybe in school there were conversations about it,' he said. 'We tried explaining but she still would not talk to him. The next day during the legends tournament we explained that he was like our elder brother. I don't think Bhajji pa did that deliberately. It happened in the heat of the moment. It was a learning experience for both of us,' he further added. Even Harbhajan has spoken about the incident in the past. He publicly revealed that he had apologised to her multiple times, but she hasn't forgiven him yet for slapping her father.

Clark Hunt gives sweet shoutout to Taylor Swift effect on Chiefs, opens up about her relationship with Travis Kelce

Clark Hunt praises Taylor Swift's influence on Chiefs while sending touching message to her and Travis Kelce (Getty Images) The Kansas City Chiefs are no strangers to headlines, but this time, the spotlight isn't on a Super Bowl victory or a highlight-reel touchdown. Instead, it's the high-profile relationship between Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift that's capturing the nation's attention and reshaping the team's fan base in ways even the front office didn't expect. Chiefs owner Clark Hunt recently opened up about this phenomenon during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, offering a heartfelt glimpse into what he calls the 'Taylor Swift effect.' Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's relationship draws heartfelt praise from Chiefs owner When asked whether the pop star's presence was good for the franchise, Hunt didn't hesitate to respond with admiration for the couple. 'Let me just say how happy we are for their relationship,' he said. 'They're an amazing couple and watching the two of them together is really special. That podcast, seeing them side by side talking about their relationship, was absolutely amazing.' Hunt revealed that Swift's influence on the Chiefs has been far from superficial. In fact, her presence has sparked a noticeable shift in fan demographics. 'It's been a whirlwind, I would say, for the organization over the last two years since Taylor literally stepped into our lives. She's done an amazing job, unintentionally, of increasing our female fanbase. We used to be about a 50-50 ratio, male-to-female fanbase, and now 57% of our fans are female — which I think is probably the highest in the National Football League. ' The owner also shared how his daughters are thrilled to have Swift as part of the Chiefs Kingdom, noting that fans frequently thank him for her impact. Many parents, he said, have shared that their daughters now insist on watching NFL games, bridging generations over football Sundays. The Taylor Swift effect turns casual spectators into passionate fans The phrase 'Taylor Swift effect' often gets tossed around in pop culture, but Hunt's comments provide hard numbers to back it up. This is not just about celebrity appearances in luxury suites — it's about converting casual observers into dedicated followers of the game. Swift herself has embraced the NFL world with genuine enthusiasm, recounting on the New Heights podcast how she even celebrated the Chiefs' draft pick of Xavier Worthy with unrestrained excitement. Her game-day reactions, Hunt added, are as animated as any die-hard supporter in Arrowhead Stadium. 'When we make a big play, she's as excited as anybody in the stadium,' he said. For the Chiefs, the Taylor Swift effect is more than a media frenzy — it's a cultural shift that's expanding the reach of the sport. As Hunt put it, this is not just good publicity; it's an authentic connection that's energizing a new generation of NFL fans.
