"New Heights" has recently featured some big-name guests, including actor Adam Sandler and NHL legend Wayne Gretzky. On Tuesday, the Kelce brothers announced that the next episode will feature NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal. The announcement came in a post from "New Heights" on social media:
"We knew Shaq could jam, but not like that TOMORROW. THE SHAQ EPISODE," the podcast wrote.
The anticipation for the episode's release is through the roof, especially after O'Neal and the Kelce brothers were shown in the post dancing and singing to Taylor Swift's song, "I Knew You Were Trouble."

"It's not a hot take to say this might be the greatest episode we've ever done," Chatzky said.
Prior to Wednesday's episode with O'Neal, the Kelce brothers had filmed 141 episodes since launching their channel two years ago.
Fans were quick to share their reactions to Chatzky's claim.
"Will definitely be up there and I haven't even watched it yet. Can I say - this is the one. The interview this podcast was made for!" a fan said.
"Can't wait!!!! I already love it from this lil video," another wrote.
"FINE JETS JAKE ILL WATCH," added another.
"It's going to be so good!!" one wrote.
"Sooo good can't wait for this one," a fan added.

‘My heart!' Inside Travis and Taylor's exciting date night at Stanley Cup final
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce sightings in South Florida are becoming as common as pileups on the Palmetto Expressway these days. On Thursday night, the duo du jour was photographed watching Game 4 of the NHL's Stanley Cup Finals between the Florida Panthers and the Edmonton Oilers at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise. We think we know which team they were rooting for: Both rocked complementary Panthers colors, with Kelce wearing a red sweatshirt and shorts and Swift in a safari style tan getup and Panthers-coded red lipstick. One Traylor fan's X account shared a video of the two sitting in their seats in a VIP suite. Swift is drinking something out of a straw, and Kelce is captivated by something on his phone, which he then shares with his girlfriend, who mouths 'Wow.' The caption: 'These two.' Someone else caught a quick PDA session between them, writing, 'Stop it.' In the past few weeks, Swift and Kelce, both 35, have been spotted dining out twice in the Palm Beach area, freaking out fellow diners. But Thursday's sighting wasn't that much of a shock. Hours before, a few sports reporters like The Athletic's Chris Johnston tipped off the Internet that the tight end and pop star were attending the game. We hear they arrived via helicopter and were ushered to a private entrance. Forget football. We think Swift may be turning into a diehard hockey fan. At one point during the nail biter, when the Panthers tied the game with 19.5 seconds left in regulation, the hitmaker is seen patting her chest. Looking excited and nervous, she tells Kelce, 'My heart...!' (Note: that tying goal was scored by Panther Sam Reinhart, who wears no. 13, which cannot possibly be a random accident because every Swiftie knows 13 is the star's lucky number.) The game ended with an Edmonton victory of 5-4 in overtime, tying the series at 2-2, and sending the teams back to Canada for game 5. We're thinking Swift and Kelce, who is renting a luxury condo during the off season in Boca Raton to train, may want to watch that one from home.

'Hidden amongst the Faithful are the Traitors, whose goal is to eliminate the Faithful and claim the prize for themselves,' according to the show's official synopsis. 'Under the cover of darkness, the Traitors murder the Faithful one by one in a treacherous spree, while the Faithful try to uncover the Traitors and banish them from the game. If the Faithful contestants banish all the Traitors, they will share the prize fund, but if a Traitor or Traitors makes it to the end, they will steal all the money.' Last year's edition of the show was won by the Faithfuls, with Gabby Windey, Dylan Efron, Dolores Catania, and Lord Ivar Mountbatten splitting the remaining prize pot of $204,300 four ways.
