In this special episode, we're trying something a little different by bringing art we dislike to our conversation. We dove into Whitney Hanson's Instagram poetry, examining both the strengths and weaknesses of her work, and explored Taylor Swift's discography, particularly focusing on the albums 'Reputation' and 'Tortured Poets Department.' Don't get it twisted, we have respect for these artists' ability to market their work, but we rediscover in this episode that we're simply drawn to work that's more vulnerable, gritty, and specific about the experiences it describes.
