As a bookish swiftie, this is exactly what I needed in life. Helpful insights from Angela combined with scholarly knowledge from Dr. Jerry (and honestly, his unfamiliarity with Taylor’s songs making that even more interesting) is captivating.

Loving this new podcast. Their interactions with each other are adorable, and Dr Jerry has some really great insights into the poetry and historical references that most wouldn’t notice.
Apple Podcasts5murray's monUnited States10 days ago - Appreciate you so much!
There are hundreds of people reviewing Taylor’s songs and how rare it is to find the ones who know what they are taking about 😂 It is very interesting for me to hear about the literary devices and other little things Dr. Coats notices, and thank you Angela for the whole idea! Looking forward to new episodes, don’t stop! ❤️

Such good content. I love swiftie content but I can only take squealing or sass for so long, so this podcast is so nice to listen to. Very easy listening and still very engaging content and you can hear the respect for one another and the art. Both hosts have soothing (not grating whatsoever) voices and they’re both always sharing something interesting! Thank you for doing these!!
