| 10/15/26 | Phone a Snake: The Encore Has Broken Your Brain | Welcome back to Phone a Snake, the world's greatest hotline, where you call in with your unpopular opinions and we roast them, agree, or debate. In today's episode, we're Patient Zeroing in on Taylor Swift's new deluxe version of The Life of a Showgirl. It's titled "The Encore" and we sure hope that means this is the end of the road for the era...on the agenda today: is this just boring millennial pop for white women? Is the songwriting lazy? Will The Encore hurt Taylor's legacy? Why is Debut TV getting paid dust? Cleveland is camp, and more...enjoy! | 49m 29s | ||||||
| 10/8/26 | We Ranked Every Taylor Swift Deluxe Song Worst to Best | With the addition of Showgirl: The Encore, we now have four new deluxe tracks to add into the canon of Taylor Swift songs that didn't make it to the album, but aren't one off singles or vault songs. We were inspired by Billboard's uninspired ranking of the same material, to give the Swiftie perspective on how these new songs rank compared to their sisters, while taking a walk down memory lane. Enjoy! | 1h 18m 30s | ||||||
| 10/1/26 | We Need to Talk About the 2026 VMAs | Here we are again...at the most culturally irrelevant pop culture awards show! This year's VMA was, unsurprisingly, a snooze fest. And yet it was the highest rated show in years. Go figure. We get into all the winners and snubbed divas of the evening, including: Lisa, Madonna, Slayyyter, Pink Pantheress, Zara Larsson...and of course, a review and reaction to Taylor Swift's new music video for Patient Zero. Enjoy! | 1h 12m 20s | ||||||
| 9/28/26 | Encoreology | GET EXCLUSIVE BONUS CONTENT ONLY ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/swiftologistWell, here we are again. Taylor Swift has released the deluxe version of The Life of a Showgirl, called The Encore, and we’re here to decode it for you. Four new tracks: Patient Zero, Pink Clouding, Cleveland!, and Babylon have entered the canon and we have thoughts about all of it: from the male-centered allegations, to the bizarre tone of…anger…and the desire to clap back at the haters, both real and imagined. We are always keeping it real. | 1h 31m 21s | ||||||
| 9/24/26 | Ranking EVERY Taylor's Version Vault Track With Brutal Honesty | WE WILL BE UPDATING IN REAL TIME ON SHOWGIRL: THE ENCORE ONLY ON PATREON! https://www.patreon.com/swiftologist The vault tracks have been one of the most special gifts that Taylor Swift has ever bestowed upon us, her fans. However. Are they all created equally? We're taking the magnifying glass to each and every vault track in the discography: from Fearless all the way until 1989, and deciding who the REAL divas are. Foolish One, you'll always be famous. Don't You...start running. | 1h 12m 16s | ||||||
| 9/17/26 | A Needlessly Thorough Recap Of Taylor Swift's VMA History | This week on Evolution of a Snake we're doing the FULL autopsy of The Diva at the VMAs. From baby yeehaw Taylor on correspondent duty in 2008 to Kanye grabbing that mic in 2009 and rewiring her entire career, the painfully passive-aggressive Innocent era in 2010, the Red bangs relaunch in 2012, the Harry Styles revenge speech in 2013, that CURSED Shake It Off performance in 2014, the Nicki Minaj feud and Bad Blood sweep in 2015, the Lover overload in 2019, hijacking the show to announce Midnights in 2022, all the way to becoming the most decorated artist in VMA history in 2024. What awaits us in 2026?! | 1h 40m 47s | ||||||
| 9/10/26 | Every Time Taylor Swift 'Lost', She Actually Won | Every pop career looks inevitable in hindsight, and Taylor Swift's more than anyone's. Except almost none of it was. In this episode, we revisit Taylor Swift’s true sliding door moments (we like to call it the butterfly effect) where one different call could’ve altered her entire legacy. The breakups, album rollouts, feuds…we address all of it! Thankfully for Taylor, nearly every terrible thing that’s happened to her has only gone on to fuel the machine she is now. There’s no snake without the phone call from Kanye West and the posting of it by Kim Kardashian, so then there’s no reputation without the snake…you see how it goes! | 1h 05m 48s | ||||||
