The first leg of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has come to a close, with the pop superstar having performed in stadiums across North America for several million people.
A few of those people are friends of Popcast. This week and next, we’ll speak with a few of them about their experiences at the show.
On this week’s Popcast, conversations about Swift’s relationship to the broader hierarchy of celebrity, the tour date as destination event, how fans dressed up for the show, and ways in which Swift is extremely deliberate in the manner that she deploys sexuality.
Guests:
-
Caryn Ganz, The New York Times’s pop music editor
-
Vrinda Jagota, a freelance writer for Pitchfork and others
-
Josh Duboff, a freelance writer for Vanity Fair and others
