Evolution of a Snake: The Taylor Swift Podcast

• ☎️ Phone a Snake: Happy Birthday, Tortured Poets. Here’s a Tomato

  One year later, The Tortured Poets Department is still driving The Snake Nation to the brink, and we love to see it. In this installment of Phone a Snake, you sent us your roses, your thorns,, and your most chaotic takes on Taylor’s messiest album. We discuss certified worm behavior, whether emotional cheating counts, the horror of thanK u aIMee and how TTPD turned casual fans into 1975 apologists. Plus: why Taylor might be an ethical cheater (but not an ethical billionaire), why Florida!!! smells like regret, and what happens when you stan a version of Taylor that never existed.

• Flop Or Cult Classic? Tortured Poets One Year Later

  GET TICKETS TO EOAS LIVE: https://www.evolutionofasnake.com  One year ago, Taylor Swift dropped her messiest, most divisive album yet: The Tortured Poets Department. Critics rolled their eyes. Fans fought in the comments. But what really happened? And why does this era still haunt us? In this episode, we review the rollout, the reviews, the backlash, and the brilliance. We unpack the most savage takedowns, the misunderstood lyrics, and the cultural moment Taylor tried to close the book on, only for it to linger louder than ever. Was it a flop? A cult classic? Or something even weirder: a misunderstood masterpiece hiding in plain sight?

From the somewhat unexpected release of Fearless (Taylor's Version), to the latest release of 1989 (Taylor's Version), we figured it was a good time to go back into the archives and revisit these special projects. We're discussing the difference between the stolen songs and the re-recordings, what this project meant to us as long-time swifties, how it's changed the music industry, and where Taylor Swift will go from here.
