“We couldn’t be more excited to team up with Wondery for the next phase of New Heights,” the Ohio natives said in a statement. “We love this show, and the fanbase that has grown with us over the last two seasons.”

“They will absolutely get that much. These aren’t vanity deals, these shows are cash machines,” a podcast industry executive told PEOPLE in July.
The new contract with Wondery includes global distribution rights to all audio and video episodes of the podcast, New Heights’ back catalog of all content and rights to create international audio adaptations of the podcast for global audiences, according to the release.
Since debuting in September 2022, New Heights has been serving up highlights in the podcast space. The tight end and his retired NFL star brother use their platform to reflect on everything from their experiences on the field to sharing personal stories and discussing cultural touchstones.
After Travis began his relationship with Taylor Swift last year, the podcast embraced a new audience. The brothers have long referred to their fans as “92 percenters,” joking that 92% of listeners tune in for football, while the remainder are Swifties and other non-NFL fans.
