Burrow has been the Bengals starting quarterback since being selected No 1 overall in the 2020 NFL Draft. The Kelce brothers are hoping to break the all-time attendance record for a live crowd to witness a podcast taping, which was set at just under 21,000 by Canadian comedian Mike Ward in July 2022.

Nipper Stadium has a capacity of 38,088, but likely could hold more if needed due to seating on the turf for a live podcast. ‘New Heights’ is Jason and Travis’ weekly podcast that has generated millions of listens around the world, many due to interest in Travis’ relationship with Taylor Swift. More special guests are expected to join Burrow, who was a popular choice among the shows fans, to be in attendance at Nippert Stadium.

The Kelce brothers chose to bring a live show to their home state of Ohio and specifically Cincinnati due to being Bearcats alumni. Travis Kelce played at Cincinnati from 2008-12, while Jason suited up for the Bearcats from 2006-10.

Other popular guesses for potential guests for ‘New Heights Live’ include soccer player Rose Lavelle, who is from Cincinnati, as well as Ken Griffey Jr., who used to play for the Cincinnati Reds. Burrow missed the final eight weeks of the last NFL season after suffering a wrist injury and undergoing surgery.

In the two previous seasons, the Chiefs and Bengals met in the AFC Championship Game with Travis Kelce and Burrow going head to head. Kansas City and Cincinnati each one won of those clashes.
