Be There in Five

In this bonus episode, Kate was trying to do a "quick recap" of all of the discussion and mystery surrounding Taylor Swift's 9th studio album's surprise release. However, it is not quick and recap might be a generous word since she felt like she hasn't listened enough to go song-by-song. Yet she still manages to talk about it for like, evermore, and shares her observations surrounding this album, e.g. the comparisons to folklore, the theories leading up to (and the theories following) the sister album's release, the potential trilogy, the Woodvale of it all, the easter eggs, the weird TikTok theories, literary references, some of her favorite lyrics/themes/callbacks, her general interest in mystical witchlike subcultures, and then talks about Champagne Problems for way too long.

In this nostalgic deep dive, Kate details her "main character" moments throughout life, AKA moments her hyper sensitive nature and her obsession with pop culture perfectly intersected to produce fake emo song scored movie scenes in her head. Join her as she reviews memories from her recently discovered journals when she was dramatically, if not disproportionately, reacting to very normal adolescent situations, from youth group, to celeb sightings, hook up culture, a Twilight phase, frat parties, study abroad, getting ready culture, all the way to ultimately culminating with an earth-shattering heartbreak at a certain fast casual eatery. She then reads from her journals from her religious phase and explores how her emotional and spiritual evolution led her to this very moment. Enjoy!

This week, Kate reports live from an unforeseen all-nighter following Taylor Swift's surprise Folklore Studio Sessions release on Disney+. This holiday season is lonely enough as is, so Kate decided to do an unpolished reaction podcast in hopes of getting it out quickly so no one's watching alone. If you don't have Disney+, that's ok, Kate will give you the scoop about what she said about the album's creation, inspiration, notable lyrics, and most of all… her revealing of the identity of the elusive pseudonym William Bowery. Kate can't help herself and peppers in commentary about Taylor's home decor, as well as irrelevant things like the movie Center Stage and the illicit affair that occurs within The Pina Colada Song, so, you know. Something for everybody? Or maybe nobody? Hard to say, she's tired.

This week, Kate asked listeners what they'd like to be distracted by on election day and listeners submitted a wide range of meaningless topics that are perfect meaningful discussions to listen to while we all do a whole lot of waiting. Whether you are waiting in line at the polls or waiting for results to come in, Kate is honored to keep you company via this one-take unedited casual stream of solo consciousness. Please go vote and remember many locations still take registrations on election day!! She will fill topics in the description later, Kate hasn't listened back to it since she just decided to do this and is not totally sure what's in here. She recalls explaining a strategy she's planned out for how to win Jeopardy, telling stories about bad roommates, dissecting different types of plaid, ranking celebrity veneers, and at one point she does map which Gilmore Girls character best represents each Taylor Swift album after explaining each era of Taylor Swift's hair evolution, so there's that.
