About this listen

Let's Ask Taylor Swift was a Not Sorry podcast co-hosted by Vanessa Zoltan and Daniel Schroeder.


In each episode, Vanessa and Daniel focused on one song from Taylor's discography, asking themselves, each other, and you— the audience— what it is about Taylor's music that resonates so much with fans.

By asking a question in each episode, like “what is the fantasy of forbidden love?” or “should you ever go back to an ex?,” we hope to uncover our own meaning in Taylor’s lyrics through close reading and community, in order to apply these lessons to our own lives.
