Summary

Taylor Swift is officially nominated for the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and our own panel of Swifties are celebrating the only way we know how — by turning it into a competitive draft. But there’s a catch... We cannot pick any of the five songs Taylor submitted herself. In this episode of 13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast, Nick, Ana, Amy, and Lacey each take turns drafting their personal five-song lineup that they believe best represents Taylor’s songwriting mastery — from lyrical gut-punches to iconic storytelling to pop perfection. And once someone chooses a song, it’s off the table forever. Yes… feelings are hurt. Strategies crumble, and the TTPD gloves come off! Hear our passionate defenses, surprising picks, heated moments over a fan fav snack size song, and even a little friendly chaos over drafting order. We cover everything from classics like Our Song and You Belong With Me to deep-cut heartbreakers, folklore masterpieces, and songs that showcase her evolution from teenage prodigy to generational songwriter. We also ask: Which songs should represent Taylor’s entire 20-year career? Which of her lyrics hit hardest for Songwriters Hall of Fame voters? And why didn’t any of us pick something from a particular album… yet? Stick around to hear everyone’s final five-song sets — and tell us yours! Subscribe, share your picks with us, and let’s manifest Taylor becoming the youngest inductee ever.
