    Episode 168 - I Knew It, I Knew You

    Rachel and Sam had a very impromptu recording session TOGETHER IN PERSON, which is always a very thrilling time for our podcast! Sam's on a baseball high and we are saying it here now: maybe we ARE a sports podcast afterall! We also take some time to reflect on all that Taylor has been up to as of late: performing at the Academy Museum Gala (slash campaigning for an Oscar perhaps?), accepting yet another Songwriters Hall of Fame award, and killing the fashion game. One thing she's seemingly not busy with is releasing Debut (Taylor's Version), however our eyes are still on November 10... Our "New Shit" had us vibing to two talented artists, one who's new to us and another who we actually call a friend! Speaking of music, our song to discuss this week is one that appears not on an official Taylor album, but on a soundtrack! Did you know Taylor has 13 (yes, that's correct) original movie soundtrack songs? This one marks the fourth one we've paired a cocktail to, and it's deeper than you'd think. Rachel nearly cries (although that's no surprise to anyone)! And it's so dang catchy, too!  Share with us your thoughts on today's episode by sending an email to swiftandswigspodcast@gmail.com.Leave us a written review on the Apple Podcasts app!Follow and rate our podcast on Spotify!

    Episode 166 - Anti-Hero + The Encore reactions!!!

    Our reactions to the four additional songs from Showgirl are here!!! We have LOTS to say about them... But also, we have LOTS to say about the lead single from Taylor's 10th studio album, Anti-Hero. This might just be the best lead single she's every given us. The vulnerability, the honesty, and the anxiety all packaged up in a banger of the century. CRAZY WORK, TAYLOR!!!!

    Episode 165 - tolerate it

    By far Sam's favorite track 5 and a song that he feels is an overall deeply underrated song. Rachel connects with it through her reading of the book Rebecca. Together, we discuss how powerful this song is and, although this was presented as another fictitious story about "other people," we naturally wonder how Taylor's personal experience with her relationships were likely the inspiration for writing this gripping and empowering song.

    Episode 164 - Emergency Tea Time ~ Patient Zero Reaction!

    We are BACK baby! And this time with a new song??? A new single for a new era maybe??? A deluxe track for The Life of a Showgirl??? We still don't have the answers but we are thrilled that Taylor has moved and we can't wait to hear everyone's thoughts, theories, and predictions for what this means. VMA's are also on the forefront of our mind.....BE READY SWIFTIES!!!!

    Episode 163 - Teardrops On My Guitar

    Taylor interviewed and performed at the Grammy's Museum Icon Sessions and we have LOTS to say about it!!! That mashup was the most superior thing she's done for us in a LONG time. We ponder the song of the week and how Taylor was very vulnerable in it. She literally said the name of the subject which is something that we don't think would ever happen if this song came out today. It's very meta too, as she is singing about writing songs and the reasons for it all. Without those teardrops on her guitar, we simply wouldn't be here today.

    Episode 162 - Ruin the Friendship

    The song we discuss this week absolutely wrecked us upon first listen and has continued to move us ever since. So we lighten the mood first by discussing our takes on the best 3-song run in Taylor Swift's entire discography. Our new shit covers Charli XCX's new album and its major shift from Brat, and Phoebe Bridgers releasing an album in the summer which feels out of character for her. We delve into the song of the week and share how this song is a highlight on the entire Life of a Showgirl album for us. The playful, flirty energy leading into the saddest twist that we absolutely did not see coming had us confused, intrigued, and in tears by the end. A major point to discuss was why Taylor released this song in this era and how her healing over recent years has allowed her to reflect.

    Episode 161 - mirrorball

    We had a fun little Chitty Chatty Bang Bang at the beginning of this episode, discussing everything from Debut (Taylor's Version) to the Emmy's. Will she be an EGOT winner at somepoint? Mirrorball is one of Sam's favorite songs, and it seems as though Rachel has a realization in this episode that it might actually be her favorite song too! It's one of her most honest and heartfelt songs, with us, the fans, as the subject. Without this song, her entire career feels incomplete, and that's exactly what we break down in this episode.
