Summary

Welcome to another glitter-packed episode of 13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast! This week, we dive deep into the TS12 rollout for The Life of a Showgirl. Join Lacey, Anna, Amy, and Nick (in spirit!) as they unravel vinylcountdowns, glitter color theories, the 1989 callbacks, possible Super Bowl clues, and a whole lotta Swiftie sleuthing. Is the album’s color just… glitter? What do the vinyl drops really mean? Will Taylor surprise-drop a documentary or visual album? Is she teasing a Super Bowl halftime show? And could Taylor Alison Swift be the name of TS13? We break it all down with SwiftTok theories, listener voicemails (shoutout Morgan!), and hilarious chaos that only true Swifties will understand. This episode is your countdown companion and Swiftie theory vault.

0:35.9	And Nick Adams is not with us today, But we have a lot of stuff to talk about
0:41.3	because we're in the midst of a Taylor Swift album rollout, which is just such an incredible
0:48.6	time to be alive. She makes these album rollout so much fun. And I'm just grateful that we're
0:54.0	not getting up at midnight right now. Honestly, agreed. Yeah, we've had, and we'll get into like the countdowns and everything that we've had the last couple of days, but every single time I see that the countdowns end at 2 p.m. Eastern, I say thank you, Taylor.

A week ago, we found out about a life of a show girl. I do want to ask that before we get into the nitty-gritty of everything. So when we did our first emergency episode about all of this, Amy, you weren't on that episode because of our schedules and stuff. What are your initial thoughts
2:04.6	on The Life of the Showgirl? What are my thoughts? Everything that y'all said, I listened.
