  • great combo of pop and srs bznz

    i'm in awe of Taylor and her strength, bravery, perseverance and intellectual honesty while working in such a constantly shifting and often antagonistic section of the modern world. Also her interest in the subjects she explores is palpable, gets me curious and she has great guests who can elucidate the topic. i can keep up with the online issues as well as the current trends and crazes! keep on keeping on, Taylor!
