Everything You Need To Know About Taylor Swift's Wedding
Evolution of a Snake: The Taylor Swift Fan PodcastShow Notes
Taylor Swift got married at Madison Square Garden and, somehow, the AMC CEO became our main correspondent for the “wedding of the century.” In this episode, we piece together the night from leaks, fan videos, and unhinged eyewitnesses: the peach-draped entryway and TT logo, the fake “garden” inside an arena, Taylor walking a bridge to a Love Story string arrangement, Adam Sandler officiating and allegedly singing, Paul McCartney and Stevie Nicks performing, and a thousand-person guest list that feels half fairytale, half corporate retreat. We get into who was there (Simone Biles, Fergie, Selena, Gigi, Eras Tour crew), who conspicuously wasn’t (Blake, Phoebe, Lorde, Lana, Ice Spice), and what that says about power, PR, and who actually wants to be folded into the Tayvis storyline. We also talk about those 20-minute vows and the room in tears, the parasocial high of watching Taylor finally get married, and the ethics of a wedding that’s also a brand activation—plus the Swifties outside MSG in a heat wave, singing to blank walls and scrambling for leftover pastries like subway RATS!

20 years ago, the greatest debut album of all time was ever made: Taylor Swift’s, Taylor Swift, 2006. It was a historic first step in a new leap for womankind. Our Song, for example, made Taylor Swift the youngest artist ever to write and perform a #1 country song. Featuring other smash hits like Teardrops On My Guitar, Should’ve Said No, and Picture to Burn…we revisit an album we haven’t listened to in full for a long time, to share our thoughts and feelings about it, as well as provide you predictions on what will happen for the inevitable release of Debut (Taylor’s Version): the vault tracks alone, are a ki…
Welcome back to Phone a Snake, the world's greatest hotline, where you call in with your unpopular opinions and we roast them, agree, or debate. In today's episode, we're Patient Zeroing in on Taylor Swift's new deluxe version of The Life of a Showgirl. It's titled "The Encore" and we sure hope that means this is the end of the road for the era...on the agenda today: is this just boring millennial pop for white women? Is the songwriting lazy? Will The Encore hurt Taylor's legacy? Why is Debut TV getting paid dust? Cleveland is camp, and more...enjoy!
With the addition of Showgirl: The Encore, we now have four new deluxe tracks to add into the canon of Taylor Swift songs that didn't make it to the album, but aren't one off singles or vault songs. We were inspired by Billboard's uninspired ranking of the same material, to give the Swiftie perspective on how these new songs rank compared to their sisters, while taking a walk down memory lane. Enjoy!
Here we are again...at the most culturally irrelevant pop culture awards show! This year's VMA was, unsurprisingly, a snooze fest. And yet it was the highest rated show in years. Go figure. We get into all the winners and snubbed divas of the evening, including: Lisa, Madonna, Slayyyter, Pink Pantheress, Zara Larsson...and of course, a review and reaction to Taylor Swift's new music video for Patient Zero. Enjoy!

Taylor Swift has released the deluxe version of The Life of a Showgirl, called The Encore, and we’re here to decode it for you. Four new tracks: Patient Zero, Pink Clouding, Cleveland!, and Babylon have entered the canon and we have thoughts about all of it: from the male-centered allegations, to the bizarre tone of…anger…and the desire to clap back at the haters, both real and imagined. We are always keeping it real.
