“Once the flight had flown…” Taylor Swift is a master storyteller, but how does she tell those stories? In this week's Show & Tell episode, we're talking all about Narratology. We break down the structure behind the storytelling, unpacking flashbacks, fast forwards, stream of consciousness, and first-person limited narration through three brilliant Swift tracks. From fairy tale distortion in “Is It Over Now?”, a murder mystery arc in “No Body, No Crime,” to the heart-tugging Bildungsroman of “You're On Your Own, Kid,” this episode explores the how behind the heartbreaks, twists, and self-discoveries. Whether you're into literary theory, folklore, or just love a well-crafted bridge, you'll leave this episode with a deeper appreciation for Taylor's evolving narrative toolkit—and maybe a few English class flashbacks of your own.

“And I was catching my breath, barefoot in the wildest winter…” What happens when a 21st-century American poet meets a 19th-century one? In this Show & Tell episode, we explore the literary lineage between Taylor Swift and Emily Dickinson—two iconic writers whose work spans centuries but shares unmistakable DNA (literally—did you know they might be distant cousins?!). From slant rhymes and stylized punctuation to themes of isolation, longing, and hope, we unpack the poetic parallels between Dickinson's timeless verses and Taylor's lyrics. In true Show & Tell fashion, each of us brings a favorite Dickinson poem paired with a Swift song that touch on shared motifs such as separation, isolation, and hope.

"Girls go out and have your fun, then they hunt and slay the ones who actually do it." What does it mean to view Taylor Swift's music through a feminist lens? On this week's show and tell episode, we look at three songs from the lens of Feminist Theory—"Mean," "Nothing New," and "Mirrorball"—to examine how they critique patriarchal expectations, the limitations placed on women, and the struggle for self-definition. From the societal obsession with youth and likability to the emotional labor of constantly adjusting to fit in, this discussion unpacks the deeper layers of feminist literary criticism embedded in Swift's songwriting.

This episode marks the conclusion of our three-part series, in which we explore the multifaceted nature of anxiety and the psychological patterns that underpin it. We delve into the significant distinction between emotions and feelings, emphasizing that our reactions to various stimuli aren't inherently linked to the stimuli itself but rather to our perceptions shaped by previous experiences and beliefs. Throughout our conversation, we unpack the workings of the brain, particularly focusing on the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. The sympathetic nervous system, which governs our stress responses and instinctive reactions, often drives us into cycles of anxiety and negative thought patterns. John introduces the concept of "Frankie's monster," a metaphorical representation of our subconscious fears that can overwhelm us if left unchecked. He emphasizes the importance of awareness and the need to interrupt these automatic patterns that diminish our sense of well-being. We discuss practical strategies for managing and transforming anxiety. John shares "inner sizes," such as the breathing technique known as "Take Six," which helps calm our nervous systems and ease feelings of stress. By focusing on our breathing and engaging in positive self-talk, we can shift from a state of anxiety to one of calm and control. This technique exemplifies how we can reinforce new, healthier neural pathways by consciously choosing to challenge our automatic negative thoughts (ANTS) and replace them with automatic positive thoughts (APTS). #AnxietyCoach #MindsetShift #Neuroplasticity #ChangeYourBeliefs #EmpowerYourMind #MentalWellness #SelfTalkMatters #PersonalGrowthJourney #OvercomeAnxiety #MindfulLiving #NeuroscienceOfMind #BreakFreeFromLimits #TransformYourLife #StressManagement #EmotionalRegulation #CognitiveRestructuring Learn more about your ad choices.

We explore the significance of mundane details throughout the song and discuss its lyrical structure, poetic devices (like spondees!), and why the most profound emotions often have no proof, just feelings.  Subscribe to get new episode updates: aptaylorswift.substack.com/subscribe Stay up to date at aptaylorswift.com    Mentioned in this episode:  TIME Magazine, 2023 Person of the Year Stars Around My Scars Troilus and Cressida West Side Story Hamilton Pride and Prejudice Mad Men E5: Toxic Relationships So It Goes Slaughterhouse-Five Love Actually   ***   Episode Highlights:  [01:38] “One look, dark room” [10:00] “Coffee at midnight” [18:49] “You can hear it in the silence” [20:18] “You keep his shirt, he keeps his word” [24:50] “He is in love”  [30:39] “And so it goes”  [39:40] The purpose of the song Follow AP Taylor Swift podcast on social!  TikTok → tiktok.com/@APTaylorSwift Instagram → instagram.com/APTaylorSwift YouTube → youtube.com/@APTaylorSwift Link Tree →linktr.ee/aptaylorswift Bookshop.org → bookshop.org/shop/apts Libro.fm →  tinyurl.com/aptslibro Contact us at aptaylorswift@gmail.com  Affiliate Codes:  Krowned Krystals - krownedkrystals.com use code APTS at checkout for 10% off!  Libro.fm - Looking for an audiobook?
