Disclaimer: We had a few technical problems when recording this episode - SO sorry dear listeners! Taylor's dropped a double album in The Tortured Poet's Department. We discuss our thoughts on it as well as some of the mixed reviews. We reference ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ review: a rare misstep by Laura Molloy for NME and Premature Evaluation: Taylor Swift The Tortured Poets Department by Tom Breihan for Stereogum. Next, Coachella was back in California last week. We discuss how the vibes seemed "back" for the first time in years and reference this TikTok by user Worsegirlfriend and Are Coachella Outfits Becoming More … Normal? in The Cut by Danya Issawi. Lana Del Rey was also performing at this year's Coachella but some of the commentary around her weight was concerning. We discuss the internet moment and reference this article Is Lana Del Rey "Back", Or Has Her Body Just Changed? by Alexandra Pauly. After this, we chat about why people can't leave Sydney Sweeney alone – including other women. In recommendations, Jas watched the movie, Challengers (by Luca Guadagnino) while Maggie enjoyed the book Allow Me to Introduce Myself by Onyi Nwabineli.
