Nora Princiotti and Nathan Hubbard, two music superfans, examine the careers of some of our most iconic pop stars by going through every single one of their albums. They've covered Taylor Swift, from her self-titled debut to the rerelease of ‘Fearless,’ and up next is her 2021 rerelease of ‘Red.’ After that will be Adele, starting with ‘30’ and following with her three other iconic albums. Along the way, Nora and Nathan will talk about the impact and legacies of each album, search out Easter eggs, and assess the albums’ impacts on the music industry.

    Ivy Insights

    The Every Single Album podcast is an absolute gem for music enthusiasts, particularly those who are fans of Taylor Swift and other pop artists. From the very first episode, I was hooked and couldn't stop listening. The hosts, Nora and Nathan, have an infectious chemistry that keeps me engaged throughout each episode. As a well-informed Swiftie, I thought I knew everything there was to know about Taylor's music, but this podcast proved me wrong. The deep dives into Taylor's albums were incredibly informative, and I learned so much about her songwriting process, the themes in her music, and the behind-the-scenes stories of each album. Not only did the hosts provide insightful analysis, but they also added clips of the songs to enhance the listening experience.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is the diverse range of artists that they cover. While their focus may be on Taylor Swift, they've also done episodes on Olivia Rodrigo and Adele, providing their unique perspectives on these artists' discographies. Nora and Nathan's knowledge and expertise in both music production and the music industry shine through in every episode. They delve into not only the sonic elements of each album but also explore the writing styles and business strategies behind them. This multifaceted approach makes for an incredibly enlightening listening experience.

    However, there are a couple of minor drawbacks to this podcast. Firstly, there were instances where it felt like Nora dominated the conversation and didn't leave enough space for Nathan to fully share his thoughts or insights. It would be great to hear more from him as his background in the music industry adds an extra layer of depth to the discussions. Additionally, while it's understandable that they primarily focus on popular pop artists like Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, and Adele due to listener demand, it would be exciting for them to explore lesser-known or indie artists in future episodes.

    In conclusion, The Every Single Album podcast is a must-listen for any fan of pop music. Nora and Nathan's infectious chemistry, in-depth analysis, and extensive music expertise make for a captivating listening experience. Whether you're a diehard fan or a curious newcomer, this podcast will deepen your understanding and appreciation of the artists they cover. The future looks bright for this podcast, and I can't wait to hear their reactions and breakdowns of Taylor Swift's re-recordings and other artists' discographies in the coming episodes.
