End of the Eras Tour (Taylor Swift Draft)

It was the end of an era, but the start of an age. Media/Lit kicks off season two in the biggest way possible: a sweeping draft of Taylor Swift songs across all of her eras in recognition of the conclusion of her landmark Era’s Tour. We’ve got seven panelists, seventy songs, and a soul-searching deep dive into Taylor’s catalogue. In addition to your usual time with Randy and Kris, this episode also lets you hang with superstar podlings, both old and new: Alex Marcus, podcast director at The Pop Break digital culture magazine and the mastermind behind this exercise. Meg and Davor of Space Swifties, a Taylor Swift and Star Wars podcast! Leah Marilla Thomas, entertainment writer and expert on the intersection of television culture and Taylor Swift lyrics! Maria Giddings, a jack-of-all-trades writer (most recently taking her work into the stars with NASA) and former guest cohost of Media/Lit! Join us, as we celebrate one of the most successful and prolific artists of all time.
