After seven years and about 300 episodes, Shelby and Ashley are closing out Swiftish. But of course they couldn't go out without talking about Taylor Swift's newest album, The Tortured Poets Department. It's her 11th album, their 6th and Matty Healy's 1st. So listen as they walk through the highs, the lows, and the wtf's of this 31-track anthology. A special note to all our listeners, our fans, and our friends: this podcast has been so fun. We have loved dissecting all the glorious happenings of happenstance on Taylor Swift's playground and thank you for all the support even at our most unhinged. If you can't bear to say goodbye, then don't. Follow us below!
