Episode 111: Why Taylor Swift won't be playing the Grand Ol' Opry any time soon

from Whyspace · host mandyasberry

This week on Whyspace, we're covering everything from celebrity headlines and sports shakeups to listener questions that spark some serious debate. In Entertainment, we discuss Spencer Pratt's reaction to the latest election results and the upcoming Shania Twain biopic, including our picks for who should portray the country music icon on the big screen. In TaylorTalk, we dive into the news that Taylor Swift is returning to her country roots—at least temporarily—with a new song for Toy Story 5. Could this be the beginning of a full-fledged country comeback? Over in Sports, the NFL landscape continues to shift as A.J. Brown officially becomes a Patriot, Myles Garrett heads to the Rams, and JuJu Smith-Schuster, Odell Beckham Jr., and Braxton Berrios join the Giants. We also discuss Maria Taylor's latest interview, Steph Curry's new deal with Li-Ning, the alleged Madden cover and the infamous "Madden Curse," plus the Spurs' victory over the Thunder and what a Knicks vs. Spurs NBA Finals could mean for the league. We also tackle your questions: • Which celebrity pairings would make the best "Celebs on Celebs" interview series? • Is Taylor Swift's Toy Story 5 song a one-off or the start of a country music return? • Which streaming service has the strongest lineup right now? • Which celebrity receives too much criticism—and which one gets a free pass? • If you could bring back one canceled TV show for one final season, what would it be? And, of course, we wrap things up with another edition of the WhyFactor. Curators of Curiosity, bringing you the stories everyone is talking about—and a few you didn't know you needed.
