Today we’re putting the money in the bag and stealing the keys, and discussing Taylor Swift’s Getaway Car from 2017. This cult Swiftie fave is our first track from Reputation, and Angela chose it because she knew Uncle Jerry would love the Dickens reference in the first line.

Watch as the duo dissects each line, and Uncle Jerry picks up on the self-reflection Taylor wrote into the song.
