2017: Part 2
PATREON FOR WEEKLY EPISODES: https://www.patreon.com/swiftologist Taylor Swift's reputation era is much lauded as one of her most concise, aesthetically thematic, and sonically jarring eras. To no one's surprise, we concur with this estimation. However, much gets lost in hindsight. Though her career recovered fairly quickly, there were numerous hiccups in the roll-out to reputation that were actually....kind of a big deal. Alt-right sympathizer allegations?! Is the ACLU getting involved? It's a lot. We cover it all, from the conclusion of her trial to the iconic Instagram wipe, Look What You Made Me Do music video, and her brand new approach to being a pop star. There will be no further explanation. There will just be reputation!

Fact-checking The Taylor Swift Origin Story
Welcome back to another episode of boots-on-the-ground journalism. The bone collector returns to serve a delicious meal: what, exactly, is the Taylor Swift origin story? We know the official narrative: plucky girl meets guitar, moves to Nashville, gets discovered at the Blue Bird Cafe and the rest is history. Was there more to it than that? If the recently resurfaced emails from Scott Swift's 2005 legal dispute with Taylor's former manager are to be taken seriously, then yes. We take an analytical lens to the essential role Taylor's hapless and bumbling, aw-shucks parents played in her rise to stardom & reevaluate her creative partnership with Scott Borchetta along the way too. Don't forget to join our Patreon for an exclusive discussion on the rise and fall of Gaylor! https://www.patreon.com/swiftologist

Customer Reviews
Highlight of your week
Just too good, funny, and detailed. Truely written for the fans!
It’s FIRE
This podcast is HANDS DOWN SO GOOD. The tea and funny tangents are 100/10. I just recently became a Taylor Stan and this podcast is such an essential part to leaning her history. LOVED IT!
PERFECT balance between funny + intelligent
My all time favorite podcast. These two are SO FUNNY and so so interesting. The critical analytical view of Taylor is a breath of fresh air in the current swiftie landscape. Plus their takes are smart, compelling, and make you think. Hosts Zach and Madeline do all of this while having great chemistry and being so much fun!
