Episode 146 - New Romantics

Swift and Swigs with Sibs ·

2026/01/23

This song is so good! And it's a perfect transition from last week's "A Place in this World" episode. Of course, we must discuss some Taylor tea, and Rachel has a couple books she wants to talk about. Which just brings us to sharing our new year resolution for this podcast. Anyone interested in a cocktail book? The discussion begins over why New Romantics was chosen as a deluxe track instead of being placed on the standard version. But is it really that deep?Share with us your

We’re back with season 4!!! And the episode starts with probably the longest chitty chat ever. There was loads to talk about with our obsession over the Stranger Things finale and all our “predicky-dicks” for Taylor Swift’s 2026. Maybe she’ll release a single? Perhaps be inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame? Is the wedding imminent?! Reputation Vault Tracks? Our eyes and ears are always tuned in but we can’t help but feel at ease during a quiet time in the Swiftie world such as this. The song

Tears and cheers for The End of An Era, Taylor Swift's 6-episode docuseries! It's Christmas and the three year anniversary of this podcast, and as is tradition, we find themselves in the exact place where it all started: the back bedroom of their parents' Wisconsin home on December 23rd. We've watched all six episodes of the new docuseries, and we are here to end Season 3 of this podcast with our thoughts on the entire series. We loved it and are totally satisfied. Though some

Rachel's Xmas Sweatshirt and our Spotify Wrapped lead off this episode. We are so excited to be able to share with you how our podcast has grown this year, and which artists we were streaming the most! Hint: Rachel got a puppy this year. :) When it comes time to breaking down the 8th track (and Sam's favorite!) off The Life of a Showgirl, we can't seem to agree on whether or not Taylor is critiquing others in this song or not. But one thing we can agree on is that Taylor wants to be left

The Eras Tour Docuseries is finally here! We are so excited to watch this series and learn how the Eras Tour all came together, so we put together some theories about what we think each of the six episodes will tackle. There's just simply too much to tackle and we are SO grateful that we get six whole episodes to see it!!!We're back with another attempt at making Taylor's songs fit into the theme of Christmas! "I Look in People's Windows" is a very intriguing track off The

We are so delighted to have our favorite Swiftie aunt join us for her THIRD appearance on our podcast! A couple years ago, Aunt Trish revealed to us during our Taylor Swift song draft (see episode 053) that she has always loved the song Midnight Rain. Curious, we wanted to know more! And because this song mentions the holidays and peppermint, we figured it would be the perfect time as we are getting into the holiday season. Trish shares why she loves this song, and together the three of us discuss

Since the concept of this podcast was formed three years ago, we have both collectively wanted to break down this song! Rachel has even had a cocktail in mind since the first time she listened to it! It's a heavy hitter and one that we think showcases some of the most gut-wrenching emotions in all of Taylor's career. Everything about this song, from the music to the lyrics to the emotional depth, keeps us listening over and over again. We are so glad to finally share with you our thoughts!Share

The sibs are wearing their flannels and are ready for their Red era! But first we must discuss the 2026 Grammy's nominations! Even though our girl Taylor didn't qualify for the Grammy's this year, we are still so excited for our other favorite artists to have their moment. The song of the week is one that we both consider to be extremely overrated, and we get into why that is in the meat and bones of the episode. Naturally, we debate who this song is about. But at the end of the day,

We start this episode by sharing our Halloween plans and costumes. Taylor Swift themed costume ideas, anyone?? Rachel's new shit is one of her all-time favorites: Brandi Carlisle! And Sam is trying to dig deep into new/upcoming artists flying under the radar. Pop boy fall maybe?As for the song of the week, it was only fitting to follow up last week's "Father Figure" discussion with the original song that shed light on how Taylor felt about the selling of her masters behind her

In today's episode, we break down a song that we both deem is one of the most important ones of Taylor's career. We just love how Taylor sings about power dynamics and how that's changed throughout her career. It's so bad ass, is it not?! Also, do we think there's any chance of Taylor appearing on SNL this season???Share with us your thoughts on today's episode by sending an email to swiftandswigspodcast@gmail.com.Leave us a written review on the Apple Podcasts app!Follow

Sam finds himself in the perfect setting for this song: Fabulous Las Vegas, surrounded my showgirls, sequins, feathers, and lights. And we get to have a live reaction to Taylor's big Docuseries news on this episode! We are so excited for that and can't wait to break down our thoughts when the series is released.

Four days after the album came out, we decided to meet up and record our thoughts on how the album had been sitting with us. Spoiler alert: Our opinions are quite different! But we listen and we don't judge, right? Also, it just needs to be said, the four-day-in listening experience is very likely to change, so stay tuned for continued changing opinions and updates as our podcast progresses in this new era.
