The Kansas City Chiefs are a phenomenon in the NFL and in American sports. The Chiefs’ star players, Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes, are arguably not as popular as their partners: Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes.
One can add Kylie Kelce, Travis’ sister-in-law and the wife of former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, to that list following her appearances on the Kelces’ “New Heights” podcast as well as the launch of her own “Not Gonna Lie” show. Kylie’s podcast has quickly won admiration — and it has made obvious the reason why she doesn’t hang around Brittany all that much, certainly relative to her best “gal pal” in Swift.
Kylie describes her political stance amid skyrocketing popularity
In the wake of the 2024 presidential election, much of the United States is reckoning with Donald Trump’s imminent return to the White House for his second term as the nation’s president. Trump’s victory over Kamala Harris was presumably celebrated by Brittany Mahomes, who vocally supported the Republican candidate — just as her mother-in-law Randi Mahomes did on the eve of last month’s election.
The successful launch of Kylie Kelce’s new “Not Gonna Lie” podcast — already one of the nation’s most popular programs — has caught some off-guard, particularly as Kylie has made clear (albeit “respectfully”) that she doesn’t “care what other people have to say.”

Kylie’s revelation that her politics “aggressively lean” toward leftist policies has given rise to the idea that her podcast could be a “left-wing answer” to “The Joe Rogan Experience”, which endorsed Trump before the election and has fallen behind “Not Gonna Lie” on Spotify (however briefly). And Kylie, soon to be a mother of four, is using her newfound fame as a force for good — she recently helped organize a local school’s tour of the Eagles’ Lincoln Financial Field after a teacher lodged a public appeal on TikTok.
