Not Gonna Lie… Kylie Kelce is cooking! At this point, someone has to get her and Jason Kelce tested. First, Jason retired and fit perfectly into the post-retirement flow of keeping himself busy. Ads, singing, New Heights Podcast (with Travis Kelce), WWE, ESPN deal, and it keeps going. So, we’ll stop.

Then there is Kylie. Now, because of her few cameos in New Heights, fans begged her to start her own thing! And boy, she has been rolling hot. So much so that Joe Rogan had to say goodbye to his podcasting crown. But there are some who think it’s also got to do with Taylor Swift being linked with the Kelces ever since she has been dating Trav.

Even if that’s the case: it’s huge! And if you can’t seem to fathom how huge, then we’ll break for you. But it was officially announced that: Kylie surpassed Joe for the #1 Podcast on the Spotify and Apple Charts after just 1 episode of “NGL.” Yeah, read that again. After just one EP! So, you could expect the fans to go bonkers over it.

But how big is this? Well, to be clear and upfront: The Joe Rogan Experience is one of the most listened-to globally, boasting 14.5 million subscribers on Spotify alone. Not just that. Forget the numbers. It’s all about the guests and topics and the vibe for him. The hearsay is, that his podcasts might have had an influence on the public opinions leading up to the U.S. presidential elections.

Now, no one’s running after to prove that (if a 46-million-view episode with Donald Trump is not enough proof). Guess there’s a reason Dana White thanked Rogan for playing a crucial role in the elections. In his words, the mighty and powerful Joe Rogan. So, to beat that figure. No, not just beating, but dethroning him, would have taken effort. Must have! But the fans believe Kylie Kelce is HER and she just did it effortlessly.

Fans believe Taylor Swift has helped Kylie Kelce dethrone Joe Rogan

Kylie Kelce taking over Joe Rogan’s podcast throne? That’s got everyone talking. One fan nailed the vibe, saying, “She’s a Kelce. This isn’t shocking. Especially now that Taylor Swift is also tied to them.” Hard to argue when you think about the year the Kelce clan has had. From the Eras Tour madness to Travis and Taylor’s media frenzy, Kylie’s podcast debut feels like the cherry on top of a winning season. But let’s not forget, Kylie brought her own fire to this one.

Another fan chimed in, “Queen Kylie! No doubt the Swifties had a big hand in that.” And honestly, they’ve got a point. Swifties are like a well-drilled defense—when they show up, they dominate. It’s no secret the Swift-Kelce connection has been a PR dream, and it’s definitely given Kylie’s “Not Gonna Lie” an extra boost. But still, it’s not just about Taylor’s orbit. Kylie’s content stands on its own, with a mix of humor, heart, and relatability.

Of course, there are skeptics. “I have yet to meet one person that’s ever seen this podcast. These are all manipulated numbers. It seems that Taylor Swift has a lot of pull,” one fan wrote. Manipulated or not, those Spotify and Apple charts don’t lie. Kylie’s debut didn’t just edge out Joe Rogan; it overtook podcasts like Crime Junkie and Call Her Daddy. That’s not just Swifties—it’s solid content paired with great timing.

And then there’s this gem: “Taylor Swift changed that whole family’s life.” A bit dramatic, maybe? Sure, Taylor’s influence is undeniable, but Kylie’s success here isn’t all borrowed shine. Her debut episode dove into women’s sports, family life, and the reality of fame, proving she’s more than just part of the Kelce-Swift universe. I mean, the Chiefs fans would have their own say on this one (given the luck at Arrowhead Tay-Tay has brought).

But this one is about persona and vibe. And Kylie’s vibe? Yeah, people love her for how unfiltered she is. Not afraid of speaking her mind, and why should she? Dethroning the Mighty and Powerful was just the beginning.
