Swiftish: A Taylor Swift Podcast

Your hosts talk about Taylor Swift disappearing…again…before diving into the pop star’s surprise return to country with the Grammy-nominated song “Better Man,” written for Little Big Town in 2016 (and maybe Calvin Harris too?).

Shelby and Ashley are back at it with a new episode as Taylor Swift breaks her silence after the holidays with the long-awaited music video for “End Game.”

In the last episode of the year, Shelby and Ashley talk about all the things they have to be grateful for — from beating general sale prices, to living the Swift Life, and now Taylor Swift’s latest foray into poetry with a poem in Vogue titled “The Trick to Holding On.”

Your hosts take a look at all the fingers pointed at Taylor Swift this week with tour tickets and Time’s controversial cover before seeking out the truth in what may be her most satirical song since Blank Space, “Don’t Blame Me.”

It’s the lucky number 13, so Shelby and Ashley serve up a special episode dishing the dirt on tour tickets and live performances before settling in with the reputation magazines as they take a closer look at the comeback story of the year in Taylor Swift’s telling poem, “Why She Disappeared.” 

With all the drama around tour, tickets, and merch, there’s never been a better time to look at Taylor Swift’s “I Did Something Bad” as Shelby and Ashley discuss the new Taylor’s IDGAF attitude and what exactly the old Taylor did that felt so good.

Your hosts dive into Taylor Swift’s big reputation with a big conversation about the highs and lows of reputation’s release week before breaking down the Ed/Future/Taylor trifecta on “End Game.” 

In the wake of reputation’s long-anticipated release, Shelby and Ashley forego the usual one-song format to share their reactions to Taylor Swift’s new album and all the hoopla — before and after, good and bad — surrounding what is turning out to be the biggest pop record of 2017. 

With just one week left till reputation, your hosts wax lyrical about Taylor Swift’s merch, marketing, and music, taking a close look at “Call it What You Want” — the new Taylor’s best old Taylor impression. 

Shelby and Ashley take the media to task on some of the more common misconceptions plaguing Taylor Swift, all in the name of context as they dive deep into the hidden meanings behind the new "...ready for it?" music video.
