Salute to me I’m your American Queen
New episode, deep dive "King of My Heart" out now!
This week we dive into Taylor Swift's song “King of My Heart” from reputation. (When WILL we get reputation (Taylor’s Version)?!) Join us as we discuss the power dynamics and military references in the song, as well as themes of wealth, luxury, and the British Royal Family. We even attempt to dissect how the music changes to reflect the song’s themes and lyrics. We’re left wondering: is this just a schoolgirl crush? Infatuation? Or the love of the speaker’s life, the end of all the endings? Tune in and find out!

🏫 This Week’s Extra Credit - Brought to you by Jodi
Summer is around the corner and even though it’s been YEARS since I’ve been assigned summer reading, I’ve always created a list of books to read for the summer.
Each week on our podcast we come up with books, movies, musicals, TV shows, etc that remind us of the songs we’re covering. And the books end up on our Bookshop.org page for your enjoyment.
Our Bookshop is organized by episode grouping, and sales from Bookshop.org go toward your local bookshops—so you’re shopping local while shopping online! And yes, we do get affiliate income if you buy a book from our Booklists, so you’re supporting your local bookshop AND your favorite Unofficial Professors of Taylor Swift 🤗
Overwhelmed by the options and need a place to start? Try our “Ultimate Booklist for Swifties!” Taylor’s bookshelf must be impressive. She constantly makes references to all sorts of literary classics, so we’ve compiled our favorites in one list for you.
