In October of 2011, lifelong Swiftie and Journalism student Sarah Chapelle decided to combine her passions to create the blog “Taylor Swift Style.” This blog has since amassed hundreds of thousands of followers, all of whom eagerly await for Sarah to post outfit details, prices, and even dupes of Taylor’s latest look every time she steps in front of a camera.

She hates it here, so she goes to secret gardens in her mind. The job of your hosts today is to find those secret gardens and take you along on the journey! In this installment of the fan fave ‘Mental Cages’ series, Olivia & Dani walk through TTPD’s “I Hate It Here”, a divisive and solemn track from ‘The Anthology’ half of the record.

2024/10/30

Throughout most of her long career, Taylor Swift was (in)famous for staying quiet politically. Some read this as apathy, some read it as calculating, and some went so far as to accuse her of being a secret alt-right icon. But in 2019, Taylor tore off the muzzle she had on herself and finally told the world her secret: she’s a Democrat. Her political affiliation and progressive ideology became a cornerstone of her ‘Lover’ era, and she has been open about her party alliance and voting habits ever

We’ll admit it: we were wrong. Well, kinda. In our initial ‘The Muses: Taylor Lautner’ episode from February of 2023, we made an assumption that Taylor Squared had fallen out of touch over the years and were no longer close. To our credit, that was true at the time. However, we couldn’t have predicted that in the following months, they’d reconnect and be closer than ever!

To this day, the world wonders what happened between Taylor Swift and budding pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo in 2021. Olivia, who was experiencing a meteoric rise to fame with her debut album ‘Sour’, had also publicly branded herself a lifelong Swiftie with the receipts to back her claim up. She was even called the “original Taydaughter” on the internet! So what occurred between them that made their public friendship suddenly dry up? Some people believe Taylor sued for royalties.

2024/10/02

Nine years to the day after the release of ‘1989’, Taylor released it again with her Taylor’s Version of the Pop Bible! The key difference, of course, is that when Taylor opted to drop a full-blown pop record in 2014, the (pop culture) world practically stood still. With a decade-defining singles run, an abundance of critical praises, and endless good vibes, the OG album left a legacy that the Taylor’s Version built upon. Today, your hosts talk through all things about both versions of ‘1989’, all

2024/09/25

Often (unfairly) overlooked and frequently (unjustly) criticized, ‘Midnights’ closer “Dear Reader” is a diaristic, confessional, and somber track that reminds its listener that, despite being full of advice, the author herself is not to be trusted. In this installment of the Mental Cages series, which doubles as Taylearning’s landmark 100th episode (!!!), Dani & Olivia break down this divisive track, chewing on every lyric to make some sense of it all. Taylor has spent the better part of two

Taylor made history (again) last week when she won the Video Music Award (VMA) for Video of the Year with TTPD’s “Fortnight”- but many people believe she was undeserving of the iconic award. This video, which was directed by and starring Taylor herself, beat out several other strong contenders! The award is fan-voted, but there are also so many layers and interpretations to this metaphor-heavy video, so today we answer the trending question- do we think it earned the VOTY title?
