On Friday, May 30th, 2025, Taylor announced to the world that she FINALLY owns all her old masters! In today’s “emergency pod,” Laura and Sara unpack just how special and important this news is, starting with a great deep dive into the history behind Taylor’s journey with Big Machine, departing ways with Scott Borchetta, Scooter’s purchase and the betrayal that is/was to her, and sooooo much more. And of course, our girls love to clown, so you can expect a nice little clown session about some easter eggs she’s hidden in her letter to her fans!
