Best Taylor Swift Podcast Out There!
The podcast is a GEM for Swiftie lovers or to be honest any pop culture lovers because they don’t just talk about Taylor but they go into other side topics of media. I love the muses episodes and the Easter egg theories because I too frequent clownelia street 🤡 I put this show on while I do chores and it feels like I’m body-doubling with my best friends. Keep on keeping on. Love y’all! 💓

Taylearning = the BEST Taylor Swift podcast!!
I’ve only been a Swiftie for a couple of years and just discovered Taylearning a couple months ago, and I absolutely LOVE IT!! As someone still fairly new to the world of Taylor Swift, it’s been super helpful to sort of ‘catch me up’ on the lore and help me understand certain songs and their potential meanings. I also really love that Dani and Olivia are so respectful of Taylor as a human being and display what I think are good, healthy boundaries within the parasocial relationship. I highly recommend this podcast for any Swiftie, but it’s especially great if you’re new to the fandom.

Swiftie Friiendzzz!
As a Swiftie since 2006 when I first heard Tim McGraw on the radio, I’ve loved listening to this podcast! It feels like I’m chatting with some fellow swiftie besties and is so much fun! I also really appreciate how much time, effort, and research these gals put in to ensure an informed and interesting episode each timie! Highly recommend for anyone remotely interested in Taylor Swift! 🫶

Been listening since episode 1 and Dani & Olivia just keep getting better. They do their RESEARCH and it shows. I'm not into the tipsy swiftie or ranking episodes, but I really admire the work they put into the muses and heavier topics. They bring smarts, hard work, and a ton of genuine empathy to their discussions. Well done, girls!

My FAVORITE Podcast
Every Wednesday morning I get so excited to tune in and see what Dani and Olivia are going to TayTeavch me. I thought I knew everything about Taylor Swift but I have TayLearned that there is always more to learn! These women are so inviting and it feels like I'm on a FaceTime call fan-girling. The quality of my life has improved because of this podcast, I'm not kidding! I recommend listening to the entire backlog too, the content is timeless.

On Wednesdays We Go to the University of Taylor Swift
I first started listening to this podcast to learn the chants at the Eras Tour but I stayed for the humor, wit, and charisma of our TS professors, Dani & Olivia. I’ve been listening for a year and I haven’t missed a class yet!!-

Recent hardcore Swiftie
I’ve always loved Taylor’s music, but I only REALLY became a full blown, all in Swiftie over the past couple of years. I’ve loved catching up on all the lore and timelines with Taylearning! 🫶🏻

Sisters From Other Misters
I started listening to Taylearning when I found out I was going to The Eras Tour. I loved the idea to learn all about Taylor Swift. Not only did I find a great informational podcast but I feel like I’ve gained two best girlfriends! Dani and Olivia do such a great job deep diving songs and analyzing theories all while being respectful in what Taylor would want out there. I’ve tried listening to other Swiftie podcasts and they are either not meant for entertainment or so annoying I can’t listen more than a minute or two. The ONLY way Taylearning could be better would be for me to sit in on the conversations with my girlies! Love looking forward to Wednesdays!

Only Podcast I’m Obsessed With
I listen to the new episode every. single. week. It’s the best part of my Wednesdays and sometimes I have to fight with myself to listen right away on my commute TO work or save it for after. I have to listen to old episodes in between to get my fix!!! Dani and Olivia are just the sweetest humans who are so responsive and kind to their fans. Because of how active they are on Instagram (and sometimes their email) I genuinely feel like part of the conversation and just another Swiftie Bestie where we can bounce ideas off each other. The podcast itself is such an interesting and unique deep dive into all TayLore and the research/editing they put into each episode is superb. Can not recommend enough, and if they ever stop I will cry 😂💕

Besties fr
I LOVE Olivia and Dani! Listening to them chat every week about something I’m equally as passionate about is so awesome! I definitely recommend listening to the podcast to the person who knows nothing about Taylor Swift AND the person who knows everything about Taylor Swift! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️❤️🔥

Late to the Tay Party
Better late than never, but loving your pod. It’s evident your research takes a ton of time. It’s crisp, fun and educational! Well done ladies! Look forward to catching all the back episodes over the Christmas break while out walking!

My fave Taylor podcast!
I love this podcast so much! It is so interesting and informative, but is also super fun! Whenever I listen, I just feel like I’m catching up with old friends. They go so in depth into all things Taylor, and I always Tay-learn so much! I love the fantasy football drafts they do for each album, and The Muses series. This is such a great podcast for both new and longtime Swifties. Thanks for making Wednesdays the best days! (See what I did there? haha)

Latest Episodes
It’s no secret to Swifties everywhere that Taylor pawsitively loves a cat purring in her lap because it loves her. In this first installment of TayPurring: A Taylor Swift PodCat, certified cat lover Olivia dives whiskers-first, fearless into the life of Taylor’s very first furbaby: Meredith Grey. From Meredith’s iconic cattitude to her mysterious disappearing acts, Olivia chats (and let’s be real, gushes) over the stories, moments, and quirks that make Meredith purrhaps as legendary as her mother!
“The Life of a Showgirl” may have given us one of Taylor’s most divisive tracks ever…and it’s a track 5, to boot. ‘Eldest Daughter’ has a lot of things going on, but one thing we can all agree on is that Taylor is attempting to be vulnerable on this song. She spends the track exploring themes of childhood-rooted walls, personal insecurities, and promises for the future. Because your hosts do their best work when there is a mystery to be solved, Olivia & Dani decided to place this song in the ‘Mental Cages’ miniseries to analyze it further! Hop into this episode to see if you can join us in making sense of this emotional and misunderstood tune.
It seems that whenever Taylor Swift drops a music video, she can’t help herself…she simply MUST stuff it full of Easter Eggs! Her most recent one, “The Fate of Ophelia”, is absolutely no exception. Taylor herself admits that there are over one hundred eggs embedded into this video, so your hosts went digging to find everything they could. So get out your spyglass, crack those knuckles, and join us as Dani & Olivia tear about this video - frame by frame - to find all of these eggs.
Nearly four weeks ago, ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ was released into the world! During these past four weeks, it seems everyone on the earth has formed an opinion about this album…and your hosts are no different. Join us in today’s much-requested episode as Dani & Olivia break down the album’s highs and lows, track by track, to give you their full reviews. Per usual (and also by request), they also share their current track rankings! But don’t expect those to be written in stone just yet…
Back in September, you met us in the afterglow when we talked through Taylor Swift & Joe Alwyn’s relationship timeline leading up to the “Lover” album. Today, we invite you to continue this journey through the music behind the muse as we dissect the 2019 album! Specifically, we follow the lyrics to see where Joe influenced these anxiety-riddled love tunes. Additionally, we talk about how we’d feel about their relationship had we been die-hard Swifties at the time, and we analyze their relationship during this era through a retrospective and analytical lens.
She’s back! Today, your hosts are again joined by Harvard University’s very own viral professor, Stephanie Burt, as she talks about Taylor through the lens of her newest book: “Taylor’s Version: The Poetic and Musical Genius of Taylor Swift.” This episode features Dani & Olivia talking with Stephanie through big Taylor questions: can she maintain her level of fame forever? How did she even get this huge? What helped Taylor more: talent or luck? All of these questions and more are addressed in today’s very special reunion between the professor and your girls!
Is this Taylor’s most divisive album ever released? The internet sure seems to think so! In today’s episode - which is unedited and unfiltered, leaving in every thought, “um”, and cold-as-ice hot take - your hosts tackle their first impressions of “The Life of a Showgirl”. With 12 tracks to go through + a movie & music video to review, Dani & Olivia are not short on content to comment on! Which song excited Olivia the most? Which one did Dani think was the weakest? What about the song that they both agreed would’ve been better on another album? Where do your hosts agree, and where do they differ? Jump in to see their immediate thoughts post-release!
The countdown is on! In less than 48 hours, we finally get to look behind the curtains of The Life of a Showgirl. In this episode, Dani & Olivia keep with tradition and share their plans for this weekend (dubbed “The Weekend of a Showgirl”). This weekend is PACKED- from the album release party to Chappell Roan in KC to a wedding, your gals are feeling like busy showgirls themselves! Plus, this episode features Q&A based on your questions from Instagram, as well as some more predictions about the album. Come pregame with us…the pregame of a showgirl! (IYKYK)
It’s frightening! It’s rapturous! It’s beautiful! And what we are referring to, of course, is the vulnerable concept of today’s show! In this episode, your hosts continue a beloved Taylearning tradition as they guess what each of the tracks on “The Life of a Showgirl” will sound like. With no lead single and no audio clips released, we know very little about the sound of this record (other than that it is full of “bangers”- thank you, Travis Kelce). But will this stop Dani & Olivia from throwing their predictions out there? Not a chance! Enjoy this silly “Showgirl” hype episode that will likely become a dated time capsule in nine short days.

Listen to Taylearning: A Taylor Swift Podcast anywhere you get your podcasts - every Wednesday!
In this second installment of TayPurring, we finally turn our sights on Taylor’s arguably most iconic feline companion: Detective Olivia Benson! From music videos to commercials, Olivia somehow manages to stay just as booked and busy as her own mom, with a sweet and loving purr-sonality to match. Tune in to hear Olivia (your host, not the cat) talk all things Olivia (the cat, not your host), and how this little kitty has clawed her way into the hearts of both Taylor and Swifties fur-ever!
