In this episode of 'Talking Swift,' Meggles, Jess, and Rubee discuss the lack of new Taylor Swift news. They also note Taylor's social media hiatus and her multiple nominations for the upcoming iHeartRadio Music Awards. The conversation shifts to folklore, Taylor Swift's album written during the pandemic. The hosts delve into the album's themes, song meanings, and personal impressions, including the storytelling behind 'The Last Great American Dynasty,' and the love triangle explored in 'August,' 'Betty,' and 'Cardigan.' Each song analysis weaves in personal anecdotes, connections to broader themes, and insights from the folklore prologue and Long Pond Studio sessions.

Hosts: Meggles, Jess, Rubee
