If anyone's gonna get your girls back in the booth, it's Taylor Thee Swift. In their glorious return to the world of podcasting, Sam and Elana discuss Taylor Swift's tenth (!!) album Midnights, and all the drama that accompanies that. They get into Taylor's oeuvre, where Midnights falls in the greater lore of Taylor Swift, and of course, the songs. Can I ask you a "Question...?" Is Taylor Swift even an album artist? Tune in to find out :)

Hey y'all (manipulatively). Ok so we know you're obviously hashtag gagged at our picks for songs of the year, but unfortunately we are once again asking you to hashtag gag more. On the second and final edition of WRAT Wrapped 2021, Sam and Elana get into the real meat and potatoes of this past year and come to some absolutely yass conclusions. Reader, they went off.

Literally hi. Famous sad British person Adele dropped her fourth studio album "30", and now famous gay Cambridge residents Sam and Elana are here with takes! On this hashtag epic episode of WRAT, we talk about... Adele honestly. Did we like this album? Is it the most ambitious and personal project of her career?

Hello our little WRATS!! As promised - our big catch-up episode from the summer. Topics include where the heck we were all summer, our new queen of pop (#streamnoplace), dying at the alter of silk chiffon, some big hot recommendations, and more! Buckle up girlies!! 

Hello friends, family, those who lie betwixt. We're back with an episode we know you have all been waiting for ... our take on Ella Yelich O'Connor's long-awaited third album Solar Power. Listen to us gab about celebrity standom, how being famous sounds absolutely psychaur, swings and misses on Australian accents, the realization that pop stars literally can't solve all of your problems, and the retirement of a beloved season 1 segment! We can't wait for you to hear how correct we are once again!!

***CW: This episode mentions addiction and suicide (during Julien Baker section 7:23-30:06)***

Okay we know what you're thinking.... yes, this episode was recorded a full two (2) months ago! But that's okay because we're actually really chill and cool and relaxed :) In this episode Elana and Sam hang out and gab about two albums that came out at the beginning of this year -- "Little Oblivions" by Julien Baker and "Super Monster" by Claud -- and get absolutely SAD! They also, in an extremely surprising twist, rehash old arguments about Taylor Swift and long for a new Lorde album. We have become parodies of ourselves. Kisses!

On this episode, expect to hear Sam and Elana's predictions re: TikTok's influence on popular music, how the pandemic is gonna affect the music industry, and the behavior of SEVERAL white women who make music (Lorde, Lana, Billie, etc). xoxo, fucksabrinacarpenter1997
