Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark is just like the rest of the sports world. Everyone is waiting for the "New Heights" podcast featuring Taylor Swift to drop on Wednesday night.

That's right, Swift is making an appearance on Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce's popular podcast.

Swift's presence alone blows up podcasts and shows across the board. Add in the fact that she is appearing with her boyfriend, Travis, and the world can't wait to see what she and the two Kelce brothers have to say.

Ahead of the release of the episode, Clark sent a message on social media. She's worried about YouTube crashing with how many people are going to rush to watch the episode.

"Are we sure YouTube isn't going to crash tonight?" Clark wrote.

She is not the only person who's worried about that possibility. Plenty of sports fans flocked to the comments section of Clark's post to share their opinions.

One fan wrote, "was thinking this earlier, my guess is it does lol."

"Taylor and Travis might crash YouTube. Time to test it," another chimed in.

A third fan commented, "YouTube? We'll be lucky if Google as a whole doesn't crash from the load."

"The whole internet may crash, Caitlin!" a fourth fan said.

Another comment read, "Nah. It's Taylor'd for this."

While the anticipation for the podcast episode including Swift is clear, fans are also getting impatient to see Clark return to the WNBA court with the Fever.

Unfortunately, her second professional season has been derailed by injuries. Lately, she has missed a lot of time as she tries to rest and recover from a nagging groin injury.

Throughout the 2025 WNBA season, Clark has only played in 13 of the 33 games Indiana has played. Even without her on the court, the Fever have been able to compile an 18-15 record. They're still in playoff contention.

Clark has averaged 16.5 points per game to go along with 8.8 assists, five rebounds, and 1.6 steals and has shot 36.7 percent from the floor and 27.9 percent from the three-point line. Those numbers aren't what she was hoping to produce this season.

All of that being said, YouTube will be tested to the max when the episode is released. Clark's question about whether or not the site will crash is a valid one and it will be interesting to see what happens and how many people flock to the podcast when it goes public.
