We did something a little different this episode** and wanted to share our love for Taylor Swift, the modern poet and lyricist herself, by sharing our thoughts about her most recently released *new* album, "Midnights."

Now this episode was recorded in December 2022, before her record-breaking eras tour and before her breakup with longtime boyfriend Joe Alwyn. Our thoughts about her love life and our opinions of her songs have changed somewhat since we recorded, but we will always love our girl Taylor and how she's managed to move us through her music.

We're releasing this episode on the October anniversary of Midnights and as her album 1989 rereleases! If you haven't listened to her music in a while, give it a try! And we hope you enjoy this fun, informal discussion of ours.

**Note our recording setup was different than usual, so the episode will sound more echo-y and loud than we would like. Listeners with headphones, especially watch out for our first three or four draft picks, because we get especially loud then.
