13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast is a deep dive into everything Taylor Swift, her extensive discography, and all of her accomplishments. She is literally The Man of the music industry, after all.


Join Nick Adams, Ana Szabo, Amy Nichols and Lacey Gee every Tuesday as they break down a Taylor Swift song (TV only, of course, depending on which era we are currently in... What Era are we even in anyway?) and answer questions such as... Who was the inspiration behind that song? What connection ties this song to previous ones? Which bridge is our favorite to cross? How many Easter eggs have we yet to uncover? What does Taylor Swift put on her charcuterie boards? What does she smell like?


And most importantly, what every Swiftie really wants to know…. What’s next?!


But like a good Mastermind taught us, always be on the lookout! Be sure to subscribe to 13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast so you’ll be the first to know anytime we drop an emergency SwifTea episode. We can be a bit chaotic when the SwifTea is piping hot.

  • Actually Romantic

    Actually Romantic
    May 26 2026

    Is Actually Romantic one of the most savage songs on Life of a Showgirl? In this episode of 13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast, we break down every lyric, reference, and rumored feud packed into this diss track.

    We dive into the very intentional lines, the toy chihuahua comparison, and the ultimate diss moment when Taylor sings, “No man has ever loved me like you do.”

    We unpack the theories connecting the song to Charli XCX, the long history of rumored tension surrounding the Reputation Stadium Tour, “Sympathy Is a Knife,” Matty Healy connections, and the subtle ways Taylor may be flipping criticism into power.

    Plus, we talk about why this song feels so different from Taylor’s past feud songs like Blank Space, Look What You Made Me Do, Karma, and I Forgot That You Existed, and why it’s considered ‘rage bait’ in the best possible way.

    We also discuss:

    • Taylor’s own explanation of the song
    • The Weezer-style influence
    • The misogynist reason why ‘Taylor Swift went too far’, and the male celebrity feuds that are acceptable
    • How ‘Actually Romantic’ turns hate into obsession… and obsession into comedy

    If you love Taylor’s witty songwriting, layered easter eggs, and unapologetic confidence, this episode is for you.

    What do you think of this song? What did we miss? What else would you like to hear from us? All the ways to reach us are in the description of this podcast.

  • Ruin The Friendship

    Ruin The Friendship
    May 12 2026

    This episode of 13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast dives into one of the most emotional and daring tracks on The Life of a Showgirl — Ruin the Friendship. Lacey, Ana, and Amy unpack the nostalgic lyrics, the heartbreaking “what ifs,” and the real-life connection fans believe ties the song to Taylor’s late friend, Jeff Lang. This is a track 6 “whiplash” song that transforms from a dreamy high school crush story into a reflection on grief, regret, friendship, and missed chances.

    We discuss Taylor’s own explanation of the song, the meaning behind lines like “should have kissed you anyway,” and why this track feels so personal for anyone who has ever wondered how life would have turned out if they’d just taken the risk.

    We also take a look at Taylor Swift’s prom-happenings as well as some of our own! Plus, initial thoughts before hearing this track for the first time… (Did you think this was going to be a sort-of diss track?!) And we share a voicemail from a Crustacean Nation member overseas that named THIS podcast moment as their fav of all time!

    Where does this song rank for you in The Life of a Showgirl? What are some relatable moments in this song?
