This is the podcast where a brother and sister discuss two of their favorite things: Taylor Swift and cocktails! Every episode we'll feature a Taylor Swift song, we each pair it with a cocktail inspired by that song, and then we breakdown every musical mixology moment. At the end of every episode, one of the sibs announces which song they've chosen for the next episode. The cocktails help to fuel the discussion, so make one for yourself and join us!

Episode 075 - Mr. Perfectly Fine
Hello Mr. Perfectly Fine listeners of this podcast! Settle in as we start this episode off with a promised discussion of the rap battle between Kendrick and Drake. It's Taylor-related, after all! Both of us unplannedly deviate away from "Pop Girl Spring" and choose two male singers for our New Shit segment. We dive into the Swift of the week, a Fearless (Taylor's Version) vault track that is most certainly not *not* a bop. The song is fun, witty, and a wee bit angry. A classic formula that makes for the perfect Taylor Swift song!

Episode 074 - Nothing New
This week's song choice was recommended to us by a loyal listener...thanks Courtney! And what a great song choice it is. The episode begins with us attempting to summarize our entire 10-minute conversation that never got recorded. There's talk of Rep TV and Debut TV and our theories on when that will happen. We discuss incredible siblings during our new shit segment. And lastly, we get into the emotional depth of Nothing New, the significance behind Taylor being 22 when she wrote it, and why she opted to have a featured artist on this song. Swiggies: will you still want us when we're nothing new?

Episode 073 - Fortnight
This episode starts with Sam sharing some VERY EXCITING NEWS!!!! Let's just say there might be some Scotch whiskey making an appearance in some future cocktails... The song Fortnight is a heavy hitter and probably the most in depth the sibs have ever gone when discussing the spirit of a song. The opening track on Taylor's new album tells quite an interesting story that isn't all that clear. The music video is discussed in length and is absolutely recommended to further understand the message of this song. We end the episode with a recommendation for next week's song. Keep the recommendations coming, Swiggies!

Episode 072 - Gorgeous
Disclaimer: This episode was recorded BEFORE The Tortured Poets Department was released. The outro was edited AFTER TTPD was released....we promise we're not trying to make it super confusing for everyone.
This episode is GORGEOUS *ding* in all the ways. Rachel and Sam choose the same artist for their new shit. Sam struggles through sleep deprivation and pours himself a simple cocktail to cope. Did someone say Max Martin and Shellback? The laughs are plenty in this one!

Episode 071 - Paris
We had LOTS to talk about in this episode, all before we even got to the song of the week! From the Met Gala, to Charlie Puth, to the 1975, to Gracie Abrams, and of course to the Eras Tour setlist which we are predicting will certainly change for the upcoming show in Paris. Speaking of Paris, we LOVE this song! What a welcome love bop during an otherwise down moment of the whole Midnights album. But wait....is it actually a song about the love that we think it is? Maybe the song is actually terribly heartbreaking in disguise? Oh here we go again...!

Episode 070 - Fresh Out The Slammer
Rachel and Sam are FRESH out the slammer that is Taylor's new album. What can they say....they've been imprisoned by it ever since its release! Never the less, they still have some "new shit" to share, although it's not a far cry from TTPD. Excited to add a new album into the list of songs they discuss on this podcast, the sibs are completely captivated by Fresh Out The Slammer and the tea that it spills on Taylor's emotional affair with Matty Healy. The spirit, the musical mixology, and the Taylor twist are discussed in depth, all while Rachel and Sam sip on some delicious western- and slammer-themed cocktails!

Customer Reviews
Every word matters
“Every word matters to us and we know that every word matters to Taylor.” This is a quote from Rachel, one half of the sibling duo of SwiftandSwigswithSibs podcast. Words matter to Rachel and Sam (the Sibs). If words matter to you, whether you’re a Swiftie or a Swiftie curious, give this podcast a listen. Rachel and Sam break down every lyric of the featured Taylor Swift song and, along with a curated cocktail (these sibs are serious about their swigs) and the “musical mixology”, recreate the stories that Taylor’s songs tell. Check out their playlist of songs covered so far (50+) on Spotify to chose an episode or just start from the beginning! Clink, clink!
a thousand times YES
These two are great, it makes me wish I had a good relationship with my brother. They are two peas in a pod… no pun intended 😆
Love me some good Taylor talk and Sam is one of the best mixologists in town so…. GIVE IT A GO!
A New Fave
This podcast feels like spending an hour with my best friend and her wonderful younger brother. 😉People I’ve known forever and love so much. What more could I ask for? I’m not even much of a Swiftie but I still love it!
