Do her ideas include that she's benefitting from the name recognition built by her celebrity family? Perhaps she is great on her own, I have no idea, but she is 100% benefitting from the "Kelce" name. I hate when people are like "I have no idea why this is getting so popular!", check your name.
Why listen to podcasts? I used to listen to talk radio before it was consumed by right wing personalities. I listen to podcasts for entertainment. Video game talk, history shows like revolutions by Mike Duncan, some improve comedy shows like CBB. You know Joe Rogan isn’t the only game in town.
Only reason I am aware of Joe Rogan is because he's all over YouTube. If it's not a short of his content, it's someone responding or "exposing" or some other crap. I also see his stupid face when I go into Spotify.
If her podcast can draw in sports-centric folks who would otherwise go to Joe Rogan, that is good. She is not a bigoted, conspiracy theorist, anti-science fascist like him. Those spaces have been dominated by right-wing men, so making inroads in those spaces is generally a good thing.
He's Wife to Jason Kelce (recently retired all time great Center for the Eageles), Sister in law, to Travis Kelce, one of the greatest Tight Ends to ever play in the NFL who happens to be Taylor Swifts boyfriend. She's also an awesome human being.
Yup. Decent human beings, with left-leaning values and huge fan bases that cover a broad spectrum of demographics. Good for us to have them on our side and out their winning as many people over as possible.
Kelly's ability to understand the needs of her audience and tell stories in a way that people are willing to listen to is the fundamental reason for the success of "Not Gonna Lie".

Does she come across as intelligent, relatable and “normal”? Also yes.
