sport news Travis and Jason Kelce 'are in serious talks to bring popular New Heights ... trends now
Travis and Jason Kelce are edging closer to taking their podcast to new heights amid talks with Amazon, according to a report.
New Heights enjoyed a meteoric rise during the last NFL season with Kansas City Chiefs star Travis dating Taylor Swift, while his team went all the way to Super Bowl victory.
And the success of the podcast has attracted titans of the media industry with the Kelce brothers said to be in 'serious talks' with Amazon, according to the New York Post.
The Chiefs star and retired Eagles legend are reportedly discussing bringing the popular show to Amazon's Wondery.
However, a deal has yet to be finalized.

Travis and Taylor Swift's relationship has been a key factor in the growth of the podcast
The report comes amid speculation that the brothers could land a nine-figure deal to keep the podcast going following his success, according to the financial information website MarketWatch.
'Companies want Jason and Travis Kelce 's podcast because of the deep relationship they have with their audiences,' Eric Silver, head of development at Multitude, a podcast collective studio and ad-sales provider, was quoted as saying by MarketWatch.
'That’s the most important thing in podcasting. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was $100million.'
Silver's comments follow a report in Bloomberg last week that the Kelces are shopping around for new terms. That report says they could strike a deal of around $80million.
Jason is also continuing his foray into the media away from the podcast too, moving into the broadcast booth amid his recent retirement from the NFL.
It was announced last month that the former center joining ESPN's coverage of Monday Night Football following his retirement from the NFL, it has been confirmed.
'Monday Night Football just got even better, Congrats @JasonKelce' read a statement on the official social media account of the Kelce brothers' hit podcast New Heights.
His next move had been the subject of intense speculation and, according to The Athletic, the 36-year-old was wanted by a number of networks.
Kelce previously appeared as an analyst on Amazon Prime's Thursday night broadcast
