I usually listen on Apple Podcasts but I literally made an account here so I could tell you that I had a freaky dream about Travis and Taylor too!!! Last week! Only it was more like a Diana/paparazzi car crash situation and the 911 call got leaked to the press…

The way I just learned it’s “start to believe” and not “hard to believe” 😅 younger me really refused to look at lyric booklets

Loved this! I also think The Only Exception heavily influenced Last Kiss

This was fantastic. So…. Can we conclude that “Foolish One” is her realization? You are NOT the exception…

Mine was the first time I encountered Taylor Swift. I remember seeing the video on Youtube in 2010 of a girl dancing in a white dress, who had overcome her challenges, and was beeing in a happy relationship. And it made me so happy. Since that moment I was a fan. So thank you for this special episode. 🩷

Hello Madelizard 🥰 ,

I wish you're doing great,

I love your lyrical analyses

I still remember how last year your "i hate it here, chloe et al. (Pt 1 & 2)" lyrical analysis brought me to tears...

Also i wonder if you have already listened to ashnikko's debut mixtape "DEMIDEVIL"

In case not, It has some amazing 🤭 songs which i think you should know:

"L8r Boi (does this froot looks familiar, i wont spoil though), Clitoris the musical, tantrum, daisy, toxic" etc...

love "WEEDKILLER" btw!!!

Just wanted to share a positive msg/vibes with you,

You are making some of the honest, entertaining (in times like these when we need it the most) and amazing content, and i absolutely love!!!

Take care of yourself, god bless 🫶

P.s. I don't usually comment here becuz I mostly listen podcast on Spotify unless there's a substack exclusive essay / listicle

But im so glad substack exist (cuz of comments feature)

i am so not a woowoo person EXCEPT for dreams… i love dreams, CANNOT relate to people who are always like omg shut up about your dreams. um no if you dream about taylor getting stuck in a saw trap as travis watches i need to be hearing about that. side note - have you gone down the internet rabbit hole about people who claim to have had prophetic dreams about 9/11??? and like other mass tragedies or events etc. it’s fucking wild. anyways lmfao great episode… two absolute fucking diva songs that defined being 16. mine goes so hard to this DAY. what she was cooking up back then has never been done before and will never be replicated. amen. herstory. and brand new eyes is really underrated and we need to be having that conversation every day.

now…..that is a rabbit hole I need to go down EXPEDITIOUSLY ……

Mine is so relatable. If Cory Montieth put his arm around me, I too would be planning our whole love story in my mind Wattpad style.

(I have had prophetic dreams as well… there a lot we don’t know about life, the universe)
