Travis Kelce said Taylor Swift called Jason Kelce’s 7:30 in the morning workout request “f---ed up” after his brother rang him up for lifting help. The exchange came up on New Heights on Wednesday, Oct. 21, with Travis Kelce turning a family interruption into a detailed account of what happened before a workout session.
7:30 Call From Jason Kelce
“I get a call at 7:30 in the morning,” Travis Kelce said on New Heights, adding, “He actually asked me how much weight I have in my basement.” Jason Kelce’s request was specific: “Yeah, can you come spot me?” Travis Kelce said he answered, “Uhh, you okay?” before hearing the rest of the ask.
Travis Kelce said he and Jason Kelce are both taking part in Squatober, which explains why the call was about lifting rather than a casual catch-up. Jason Kelce had brought about 50 lbs. of extra plates to Kansas City, so the early-morning request fit the workout challenge they were already in the middle of.
Taylor Swift Walks Out
Travis Kelce said Taylor Swift was walking out of the room when he repeated Jason Kelce’s request and heard, “This is f---ed up.” He said his immediate response to Jason Kelce was, “No way!” before Jason clarified, “Nah, nah, it's bench, it's bench. It's not squat.” Travis Kelce then said, “Cool, I'll come down.”
That split reaction is the point of the story. Travis Kelce treated the call like a joke, but Swift’s response made the same 7:30 a.m. interruption sound like a real intrusion, not a punch line.
Arrowhead Stadium Weekend
Jason Kelce later tied the episode back to the weekend at Arrowhead Stadium, saying, “We were all there in Arrowhead this weekend.” He added, “It was a blast,” referring to the time the family spent together at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, Oct. 18, when the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Los Angeles Chargers.
For readers tracking the Kelce-Swift dynamic, the useful detail is simple: this was not a public spat, just a blunt reaction to an early workout call. The bigger takeaway is that the trio seems comfortable enough to turn a 7:30 a.m. interruption into podcast material, and Swift’s line landed as a deadpan veto on the hour itself.
