Notas del episodio

I couldn't be happier to share that -- not only is the wonderful Lisa Alpert back, but -- the Becoming a Swifty series has had new life breathed into it.

Yes.

It's Episode No. 165 of Badass Records, but installment number four of Taylor Swift talk.

If you didn't happen to catch Lisa's first episode, please check out No. 147, and -- in today's episode -- take note of all of the phenomenal guests Lisa has sent my way.

Anyway...Lisa and I had a fantastic conversation in which we mulled over family dynamics, the path to becoming a death doula, the necessary courage of launching a writing project, and we eventually made our way to talking about Lisa's favorite Taylor Swift albums, which were these:

folklore: the long pond studio sessions (2020)

Midnights (2022)

The Tortured Poets Department (2024)

Talking Taylor Swift isn't my absolute favorite thing, but talking Taylor Swift with awesome people who are passionate about this incredible artist is for sure a thing that I super-enjoy.

So, I'm hopeful that you'll take a chance and listen to our conversation. It's a really good one, even if Miss Swift isn't your jam.

Thank you, Lisa. I'm a better person for knowing you, and I really appreciate your time and energy.
