They may not have been able to attend the awards ceremony in person at the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas, however, Jason and Travis did pre-record a message for those in attendance.

“We won Podcast of the Year!” Jason exclaimed.

“Get the f**k out of here,” Travis responded, later asking, “People actually listen to this?”

“The people that voted for this award did,” Jason said.

“Right now we’re actually talking to the entire iHeart Podcast Awards audience right now.”

Travis replied, “Oh s**t. Well, we wish we could be there guys, but we are honored.

“We are honored to accept this award, Podcast of the Year is big s**t.”

Jason described their win as “An incredible honor,” going on to thank their fans – known as the 92%ers.

“To receive an award like this is beyond humbling and we would be remiss if we didn’t immediately thank all of the 92%ers, aka Swifties, who voted for us to win this award,” he joked.

Their fanbase grew exponentially over the past few months thanks in no small part to the influence of pop sensation Taylor Swift’s fans who joined the following after her relationship with Travis went public in September.

“Thank you guys for everything, and we truly do have the best fanbase in the entire world,” Travis added.

Jason said they “Absolutely love making this podcast each and every week, and it is beyond rewarding when we get to find out that it resonates with so many people and that they get joy out of it because we sure put a lot of that into it.”

And the 92%ers quickly took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to congratulate the brothers on their huge win.

“My hubby & I became 92%er’s in August due to the Kelce Doc hitting & reminiscing about the Kelce Bowl and then somehow I got sucked into being a Swiftie,” one commented.

“We so look forward to each & every podcast! You give us retirees something to laugh & talk about!”

A second said, “Congrats fellas !!!! Taking pods to new heights!”

While a third added, “Curiosity got me here in early September, and every Wednesday morning has been blocked off since.

“Congrats on another amazing season, and looking forward to what’s to come!”

Next season will have a different look to it following Jason’s recent decision to retire from the NFL after 13 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Exactly where retirement will take him remains unclear.

During his retirement press conference, Jason said, “I don’t know what’s next.

“But I look forward to the new opportunities and challenges that await.

“And I know that I carry with me the lessons from my time here.

“And that forever we shall all share the bond of being Philadelphians.

“That’s all I got.”

As for Travis, he’ll be looking to win his fourth Super Bowl ring with the Kansas City Chiefs.

If they are able to win LIX in New Orleans, Louisiana, the Chiefs would become the first team in NFL history to win three in a row.
