Podcasts about Showgirl

A one-room museum located in the basement of a church-turned-community arts center is crammed with mementos from a pretty spectacular period in history. We hang with some retired dancers who recall the time when Chinatown in San Francisco was filled with late night cabarets famed for their showgirls.READ MORE IN THE ATLAS: https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/showgirl-magic-museum-san-francisco-california Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In the latest and greatest episode of Phone a Snake, we open the lines to YOUR unpopular End of an Era opinions and promptly descend into chaos. We talk meth math, meta-performance delusions, Matty Healy signaling conspiracies, Showgirl truthers, and the increasing inability of fandom to distinguish subtext from canon. We unpack the docuseries as both emotional reset and expectation correction, debate whether Showgirl is Lover-coded or simply vibing, and grapple with what it means to put your hand-heart back up after months of discourse rot.

GET TICKETS TO THE SNERAS TOUR IN AUSTRALIA: https://www.evolutionofasnake.com In our final recap of The End of an Era docuseries, we're with Taylor Swift on the very last days of the Eras Tour—when the adrenaline fades, the muscle memory takes over, and the question shifts from how did we get here? to what happens after? We talk family, legacy, loss, Andrea as the quiet architect of everything, a crew reckoning with a once-in-a-lifetime job, and Taylor admitting she's ready for it to be over even as the world struggles to let go. Plus: awkward early Life of a Showgirl footage, chaotic mashups, football brain, busted harmonies, and Gracie Abrams as the tour's final emotional mirror. Learn more about your ad choices.

Before we rank the songs. Before we dissect lyrics. Before we take a peek behind the curtain…  We're starting where Taylor Swift wanted us to start: the prologue. In this episode of 13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast, we gather around the opening poetry of The Life of a Showgirl—the interconnected prologues released across the album's five variants—and discuss the meaning behind them. These poems aren't just bonus content. They're a thesis statement. A behind-the-curtain look at what it means to live, love, perform, endure, and choose this life again and again. We break down each prologue piece by piece, the imagery, the metaphors, and the emotional weight behind lines that pull back the glitter to reveal the cost of show business. This episode unpacks how Taylor frames the entire album before a single song even plays. We discuss:• How the five variant poems form one cohesive story• The physical, emotional, and psychological toll of life onstage• The crowd as comfort and threat• The quiet joy and grounding love woven into the chaos• What these poems tell us about where Taylor was—and who she is now This episode is intentionally the foundation for everything to come. It's the lens through which the rest of The Life of a Showgirl should be heard. If you've ever skipped the prologue, this is your sign not to. And if you've read it before, trust us—you haven't heard it like this. Pull up a chair.Read between the lines.The curtain is officially up.  The Life of a Showgirl era begins here.

Rafael Bonachela was born in the dying years of Franco's Spain, into a patriarchal culture that didn't appreciate little boys who wanted to dance. As the eldest of four brothers, his father expected him to be an example of academic achievement and bravado.This hardline approach slowly drove his father away from the family, though when it came time to say goodbye, Rafael saw an unexpected side of him.At the age of 17, when the wide world beckoned, Rafael left his home country without a backward glance, grasping with both hands the opportunity to become a professional dancer.After a last ditch attempt at becoming a choreographer, he received an email from Kylie Minogue. And the rest is history.

It's time for the sweetest song on Taylor Swift's, The Life of a Showgirl, "Honey". This underrated gem is full of beautiful sentiment, growth, and a lot of sensuality. Exquisite and Hannah also connect this song to many other Taylor Swift songs, including "Call It What You Want." Want to support Exquisite on her journey to becoming a professor?

It's honestly lovelyyyy… that you're tuning in for another episode of Blank Plate! In today's episode, Laura and Sara kick off the new year with life updates, holiday chaos and a truly iconic New Year's Eve wedding story before diving deep into one of Taylor Swift's messiest and most fascinating tracks, “Actually Romantic” from Life of a Showgirl. The ladies unpack the song's fountain-pen pettiness, rumored muse lore (yes, we're talking about Charli XCX), and how admiration, insecurity, and obsession blur into something unexpectedly romantic.

In today's dispatch, we revisit episode 5: where The Eras Tour hits Toronto and suddenly everything turns toward family, legacy, and the people who make you who you are. Andrea draws aching parallels between Taylor and her late mother, while the crew reflects on their own losses, including a moving moment from Kamilah Marshall. Then the tone swerves into the painfully awkward origins of The Life of a Showgirl: early studio sessions, enthusiastic CANCELLED! recording footage...it's hard out here. Gracie Abrams drops by to talk about growing up idolizing Taylor, then joins her for a very… ambitious… mashup of “Us” and “Out of the Woods.” Enjoy!  Learn more about your ad choices.

When Taylor Swift Taylor Swift's latest album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” dropped, a swarm of internet haters voiced their loud and out-of-left field opinions about it. A couple months after the drop, though, reporting from Rolling Stone revealed that the conversation around Taylor's album being a problematic flop was driven largely by bots. This tactic, called astroturfing is the same one Taylor's friend Blake Lively has alleged was used against her by Justin Baldoni. This is particularly pertinent, because “The Life of a Showgirl,” has a track, “Cancelled!” about Lively's own cancellation. Who was really behind this astroturfing campaign, and what does this situation tell us about the internet and our own susceptibility to influence? Joining Tess for an examination of the bot campaign and a close read of the “Cancelled!” lyrics are Joe Romm and Antonia Romm, hosts of the “Decoding Taylor Swift” podcast.

"All that time I sat alone in my tower, you were just honing your powers. Now I can see it all, see it all." This week, we're deep diving "The Fate of Ophelia" (The Life of a Showgirl, 2025). We go line by line through the lead single from Taylor's latest album, exploring everything from Hamlet references to fairy tale imagery, the contrast between "high brow" poetic language and colloquial modern speak, and why this song is actually packed with green flags about healthy relationships. Join us as we unpack the land, the sea, the sky, and discover why keeping it 100 might just be the antidote to drowning in melancholy.

It's time for the 13 Podcast to officially enter into The Life of a Showgirl era! Before we deep-dive into lyrics, theories, Easter eggs, and emotional devastation, we're doing what we always do first: initial song rankings. In this kickoff episode for The Life of a Showgirl, we're sharing our initial song rankings—the raw, unfiltered reactions that come after listening to a new Taylor Swift album on repeat and trusting your gut in this moment, because our rankings constantly change.  We break down where each track landed right now, what surprised us most on first listen, which songs instantly felt like standouts, and which ones we know are quietly waiting to grow into obsessions. Some rankings were obvious. Others shocked even us. And yes—this is the episode we'll absolutely look back on later and say, “How did we ever rank it THAT low?” This episode sets the foundation for everything to come this album cycle:• how the album feels as a complete body of work• early favorites vs. slow burns• production moments that grabbed us immediately• emotional highs, unexpected turns, and first-impression hot takes• predictions for which songs will age into fan favorites If you're listening along and ranking the album yourself, this episode is your invitation to pause, reflect, and compare notes—because initial rankings are a time capsule. They capture who you are, where you are, and how the music meets you in that exact moment. Whether you agree with us completely or are already yelling at your speaker, this is where the Showgirl era officially begins.  Hit play, lock in your rankings, and get ready—we're just getting started.

Join us as we revisit this important and well done movie staring Pamela Anderson. Looking at the struggles of career, age, family, and friends!

"I think there are a lot of athletes out there that are just so scared to show who they truly are and what they like because of their teammates and their coaches. And they're trying to get to the next level, and they're like, 'Oh well, if I like this then I'm not gonna get to the next level.' It's actually the opposite. You're probably gonna play better if you show who you truly are, because you're more free." Everyone loves Jackson Olson. The Savannah Bananas infielder is on a mission to make baseball more fun — and he's doing just that. Jackson has made a name for himself playing Banana Ball, which is like the baseball version of the Harlem Globetrotters. The exhibition-style games include full-on performances with choreography, lip syncing, and walk-ups designed to delight the sold-out stadium crowds. In this conversation, Jackson talks about his road to the Bananas, and his road to becoming a runner. This fall, Jackson ran his first race — the Disney Wine & Dine 5K — and now he's training for a 10K in January while figuring out how running fits into his busy baseball season. Plus, talking Taylor Swift, Disney World, and how Jackson found his voice and his confidence.  FOLLOW JACKSON @jacksonolson_ SPONSOR:  New Balance: Click here to get your hands on the fan favorite Rebel v5!

Alex Lacamoire is back for round two and I hope you're ready because not only does he put that keyboard to very good use, but Alex was also kind enough to bring isolated stems from the Hamilton cast album. Yep, I know, it's insane. Not only does he play some of his favorite parts (the Stevie Wonder moment in One Last Time and the Eleanor Rigby part of the opening number, for example) but Alex gives us a tour around the orchestra, one instrument at a time: strings from Burn, percussion from Guns and Ships, guitar in Helpless, stride piano in The Room Where It Happens, the list goes on and on and onnnnn.  Plus! We talk Billy Joel, Chopin, Steven Sondheim, Taylor Swift's The Life of a Showgirl, the connection between The Beatles and Sisqó, and Alex shares fantastic stories from his experience working on Sweeney Todd.

ODM 36 YIR PLUS LIFE OF A SHOWGIRL by Flyover PolitiK

From Bad Bunny's massive streaming numbers to Taylor Swift's “The Life of a Showgirl,” 2025 electrified music fans across the globe. There was a wild card this year, though – AI. As artificial intelligence continues to push the music industry into strange new territory, how might it impact what we call music? USA TODAY National Music Reporter Melissa Ruggieri joins The Excerpt to break down some of the year's biggest stories in music. Have feedback on the show?

Rachel's Xmas Sweatshirt and our Spotify Wrapped lead off this episode. We are so excited to be able to share with you how our podcast has grown this year, and which artists we were streaming the most! Hint: Rachel got a puppy this year. :) When it comes time to breaking down the 8th track (and Sam's favorite!) off The Life of a Showgirl, we can't seem to agree on whether or not Taylor is critiquing others in this song or not. But one thing we can agree on is that Taylor wants to be left the f**k alone. We think she should have what she wants, she deserves what she wants, and she should get what she wants! ​Share with us your thoughts on today's episode by sending an email to swiftandswigspodcast@gmail.com.​Leave us a written review on the Apple Podcasts app!​Follow and rate our podcast on Spotify! ​Check out our "new shit" playlist on Spotify: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5LOn9LRJ8lnvnCbpl6fKVG?si=68ca3032d3aa470b⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

If you’ve ever looked at your timeline and thought “there’s no way this is real,” you’re probably right. In this episode, Bridget and Mike speak to two data professionals about two recent reports from their companies that shed light on how bot networks attempt to hijack our online discourse: the Taylor Swift Nazi narrative after the release of Swift’s album Life of a Showgirl and the Cracker Barrel logo change backlash. Through the lens of these two seemingly unrelated campaigns, we unpack how bot-driven narratives spread, why it works, how online culture wars get engineered for clicks, chaos, and control, and what it means for the rest of us humans trying to engage in actual discourse online.

It's time for "CANCELLED!" Track 10 on Taylor Swift's, The Life of a Showgirl. This song fully embraces theatricality as its protagonist revels in her perceived wickedness and embrace of those rejected by the public for "one single drop." While Hannah and Exquisite may not have the same opinion when it comes to how much they like the song, they both agree with how infectiously fun the performance is.

Today's Headlines: Trump had a busy week: he gave himself an A++++++ on the economy, and in a Politico interview, openly admitted he has “no vision for Europe” while praising autocrats like Orban in Hungary and Erdogan in Turkey. European security officials are sounding alarms too, warning that Russia's hybrid warfare campaign—political sabotage, infrastructure attacks, energy manipulation, and propaganda—could escalate into a full-blown war by 2029. Meanwhile, Netanyahu says he speaks to Putin “regularly” to protect Israel's borders, particularly against Syria, so the lines are already being drawn. Over in tech, Elon Musk confessed on Katie Miller's podcast that DOGE was only “somewhat successful” and that if he could do it again, he wouldn't. And the Pentagon, under Pete Hegseth, is rolling out Google's Gemini AI for unclassified work like onboarding and administrative tasks—but the NYT is suing because Hegseth's new press rules forced reporters to sign gag orders or lose access. In Florida, Miami elected its first Democratic mayor in 28 years, Eileen Higgins, a former Peace Corps director and mechanical engineer, ending decades of GOP control and running on a government efficiency platform. Let's travel back to Taylor Swift's October album release real quick, remember the nazi, trad wife chaos around it? Turns out, less than 4% of accounts drove 28% of the conversation, and over 73% of the inflammatory posts came from inauthentic or conspiracy-focused accounts. Basically, most of the outrage wasn't real—it was engineered.

ACOFAE Podcast Proudly Presents: Showgirls x The Life of a Showgirl: "Men are usually the villain." If you've been a long time listener then you know that getting the movie Showgirls on the pod is a WIN for Laura Marie. Pairing it with a discussion about Taylor Swift's new album release, The Life of a Showgirl, is a match made in heaven for Jessica Marie! This being Jessica Marie's very first NC-17 film is a win for everyone and ACOFAE has so much to say. Kicking off the discussion with a full breakdown of the movie Showgirls, ACOFAE is in awe of the production. Sparking discussions about shedding child star image, internalized misogyny, and sexual freedom, the movie Showgirls is a spectacle for the eyes and for the brain. Taylor's discussion focuses on how women can't do anything right in the eyes of society, and that it seems to be that pain is rewarded instead of joy - and that joy makes women talentless. Join ACOFAE as they explore all of the storylines in both the movie and the album, and come to the conclusion that women just can't be happy without criticism.

We're finally doing it: ranking Taylor Swift's post–Big Machine albums, from Lover through Showgirl, using a semi-serious “scientific” system we built to avoid pitting Old Taylor against New Taylor. In this episode, we break down cohesion, execution, longevity, and overall Snakeology to figure out which version of independent-era Taylor is truly operating at her peak. The addition of The Life of a Showgirl complicates everything in ways we didn't expect, and the final ranking surprised even us.

In this episode of 13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast, we dive deep into one of Taylor's most beloved bonus tracks: “right where you left me” — Track 16 from the Evermore (Deluxe Edition). Swifties have crowned this song a top-tier masterpiece, and today we're breaking down every lyric, every Easter egg, and every emotional gut-punch that makes it unforgettable. We revisit Taylor's iconic Eras Tour performance of the song — including that perfectly relatable moment when even Taylor Swift herself stumbles over the lyrics she admits are “one of the wordiest songs” in her catalog.  We fangirl over the brand-new Eras Tour docuseries trailer and what it reveals about Taylor's creative process, color-coded chaos, surprise song strategy, and the behind-the-scenes moments we've been dying to see. From lyric dissection to real-life parallels, we explore: The heartbreaking imagery behind “Help, I'm still at the restaurant” and being emotionally frozen in time Connections between Evermore, The Life of a Showgirl, and Taylor's evolving narrative Taylor's fears, superstitions, and creative reinventions Why this track resonates so deeply with grief, growth, and the fear of being left behind The parallels to “Opalite” — and how Taylor finally leaves the table And then — one of the most unforgettable moments from the 13 Podcast voicemail..We receive a stunning, heartfelt voicemail from Antarctica. Yes, literally the bottom of the world. A Swiftie shares how our episode countdowns, Instagram posts, and podcast have become a lifeline in isolation and inspired “Taylor Tuesdays” at the southernmost edge of the planet. It's goosebumps. It's full-body chills. It's why we do this.
