13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast

13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast is a deep dive into everything Taylor Swift, her extensive discography, and all of her accomplishments. She is literally The Man of the music industry, after all. Join Nick Adams, Ana Castillejos, Amy Nichols and Lacey Gee every Tuesday as they break down a Taylor Swift song (TV only, of course, depending on which era we are currently in... What Era are we even in anyway?) and answer questions such as... Who was the inspiration behind that song? What connection ties this song to previous ones? Which bridge is our favorite to cross? How many Easter eggs have we yet to uncover? What does Taylor Swift put on her charcuterie boards? What does she smell like? And most importantly, what every Swiftie really wants to know…. What’s next?! But like a good Mastermind taught us, always be on the lookout! Be sure to subscribe to 13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast so you’ll be the first to know anytime we drop an emergency SwifTea episode. We can be a bit chaotic when the SwifTea is piping hot.

Absolute chaos is erupting! Taylor Swift has no chill and wants us all to be tortured! Welcome to the album rollout week, Taylor's Version. 

In the last 24 hours, there has been a mysterious QR code… and we just so happened to know someone that could immediately go scope out the situation!

There are still so many other questions, like Serpentine or what Taylor is trying to tell us in the Apple word of the day.. but we do know who’s l...

Strike 2! Wait… Is that another 2? Was this all a part of the plan after all?

This week instead of the usual song breakdown, we decided to rank our favorite TTPD tracks by track title alone only! It’s a trend that we’ve seen going around and one of our sweet listeners suggested it a while ago, so let’s do it!

In typical us fashion (lmfao if you will), we got the track lengths moments after recording. Then yesterday, the songwriting c...

Taylor Swift got us again! She heard the fan theories and arranged her discography into the 5 stages of grief playlists on Apple Music.. and there were some shockers! I’m sure everyone’s jaw hit the floor when they saw where she placed Lover!

Taylor left a voice memo, explaining the thought process behind each stage.

Ana Szabo, Amy Nichols and Nick Adams break it all down!

It’s almost time for TTPD and we have lots of celebrations com...

How You Get The Girl is a how-to manual written by Taylor Swift, but some people just still don’t get it!

Taylor talks about her inspiration behind this song and ends it with a very funny thought on how this could go if you follow this manual exactly! She performed this song recently during the surprise song set on the Eras Tour, and we like to think it’s because Travis Kelce was in the crowd.. even though we were all thinking of to...

Taylor Swift’s view on relationships have evolved over the years. Now she’s not looking at fairytale endings, she’s just thinking to remember the good parts.

What caused Taylor to release this song out of order, creating a glitch? What was the inspiration behind the song and video?

Nick Adams, Ana Szabo, Amy Nichols and Lacey Gee break it all down!

And why are we so silly? Probably because we are so giddy about our upcoming party! We ...

I Wish You Would solidified a beautiful relationship that we all love and respect, the one between Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff. They bonded over a sick beat and have been ride-or-die ever since.   

IWYW is that 80s romcom classic when you let you guard down and say how you really feel. It was Taylor’s first time rekindling a friendship after a failed relationship, and she toyed with the idea of that ex that just bought a house BY...

Shake It Off is the perfect example of the track 6 whiplash that we get after an emotional track 5 ballad.

Shake It Off is that song that everyone knows. The anthem that Taylor Swift wrote to tell everyone.. I hear what you’re saying and I DON’T CARE!

Plus the big lawsuit that likely held back the release of 1989 TV for so long, and legally changed the outcome for music moving forward.

And speculation on what’s to come next, including...

It’s time to break down the 5th song on 1989 tv, and we know what track 5 means in the Swiftieverse… It’s another emotional masterpiece.. Are you ready for it?

Taylor Swift talks about how this song literally haunted her in the middle of the night. A cringe dream that describes her insecurities and her breaking point in a relationship.

And it’s so interesting for someone else to take the same lyrics and deliver it with a different sp...

Taylor Swift kept us on our toes in Singapore, and there’s even more madness to come.

Not only did she do some superior song mashups, she did some perplexing things as well… Why did Taylor Nation go live just for the chairman remain silent? What do all of these Tortured Poets Department variants add up to? Does Midnights kick off the stages of grief or is there one more to come?

And how will Taylor Swift end this leg of tour? We dis...

The Eras Tour was unhinged last weekend, especially when it came to the secret song set. How will that change our game moving forward? There are new rules and a new way that you can chime in with us!

Taylor Swift sings about the turmoil of a doomed relationship that looks too good on the outside. It’s a classic song about this good girl/ bad boy relationship that will never go out of style.

It’s been a few days since the big win but it’s the first chance that we were able to get together and talk about what went down at the Super Bowl.
