It's the Vert Show.

Time to get buzzed on the hot goss from Hollywood with Abby.

It's the bird show's entertainment bus.

Other than the sheer amount of text messages and DMs, I was getting asking if I was alive after going on my blind date at a wedding in Indiana.

The other like 10% of things that people were messaging me about was this one clip from Grind City Media that thinks they have debunked whether or not Taylor Swift is or is not going to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show in 2026.

I think Taylor Swift is going to be the Super Bowl halftime show performer. I do. And you want to know why? I don't think Taylor Swift is actually baking sourdough bread.

I think it was an Easter egg. Where is the Super Bowl this year?

You told me during the break. It's in Santa Clara. Levi's. LeVis.

Niners play. Who's the Niners' mascot?

Sourdose Sam.

Oh.

Sourdose Sam. She said she's thinking about sourdough. 60% of the time, when she's going on and on about sourdough, how much sourdough she's baking, 60% of the time. It's Super Bowl 60 in Levi Stadium, home of Sourdough Sam. I think she's doing the Super Bowl.

She is going to do the Super Bowl.

I think she's doing it.

There's another one, too.

There's another piece of this.

She said, specifically, thank you for screaming for 47 seconds for me.

47 seconds could be a connection to her, her ERIS tour stop at Levi Stadium was her 47th stop on the ERIS tour. If you're wondering what is this sourdough thing she was talking about?

It all comes back to the new Heights podcast that she did with her boyfriend Travis and his brother,

Jason Kelsey. Me and Burt are sitting on the side because we did sort of a watch party on

Instagram. We were like, okay, Taylor is going to be doing a two-hour podcast. Let's all watch it together on Instagram. And we're sitting there. And I'm like, I'll listen to Taylor, so I have to read off her receipt. Like I'll, if she's there, I'm watching it. I'm fully locked in. Like, I'm going to invest in it. But I am sitting there thinking, and I'm even telling Bird, I think, at one point, like, she's really talking a lot about sourdough. Because I'm looking at it from a content standpoint. I was like, what intern didn't flag this as a story that's going on way too long? Because she's just talking about this sourdough habit that she has for like 10 minutes. But now people are like, there was probably a reason why she was talking about it for so long. And it's because she really wanted us, wanted us to pick up on the fact that she talked about

sourdough and then sourdough Sam has everything to do with the Super Bowl, which I think, honestly, I don't think it's that too far off of a theory. I don't think so either. I saw that and I immediately sent it to Abby and I'm like, oh my God, she is 1,000% doing the Super Bowl.
