Why Did Taylor Swift’s Podcast Suddenly Go Dark? ‘New Heights’ Finally Speaks On The Shocking Livestream Blackout

The livestream of a popular podcast called New Heights featuring NFL stars Jason and Travis Kelce unexpectedly and abruptly blacked out during a part fans thought might have included Taylor Swift. This livestream had thousands of viewers, who were understandably excited and frustrated that the stream immediately stopped. The fact that it simply ended got a lot of Swifties and sports fans alike wondering whether the big reveal was about to take place only to cut it off at the last moment.

The hosts subsequently responded to the matter, explaining that no blackout had been planned as a decision to censor any material instead, but as the result of a software problem of which they were not aware.

The Technical Glitch: Unpacking the Livestream Error

In a follow up explanation, Jason Kelce explained the nature of the technical glitches that saw the abrupt end of the live stream. He told us that a new software update on their broadcasting system had fucked up a connection and now the system was crashed. What made the crash so dramatic though was the time of it all.

The one that happened to be on air during the blackout was centred on a recent charity event in which Taylor Swift was present. The hosts were moving to the next subject and the system crashed at that very precise moment. The podcast team acted promptly in solving the problem but by the time the streaming was available, it was too late.

These rumors were however snuffed out in time by the hosts themselves who clarified that this was a pure slip. The podcast crew had to begin it by apologizing to the electorate of the inconvenience, and promising that the next livestreams would not be so potentially affected by the outage.
