Ep. 149 - Taylor Swift's "August"

My favorite 'folklore' track from Taylor's Swift's 8th album, has been a popular stream all month: "August". It has yet to be a music single, and trending most likely because there aren't any August holidays on the American calendar. Looking back, I discuss "August"'s creation process, analyze its lyrics, and love triangle with 2 other 'folklore' tracks.

Theme Song: "Dance Track", composed by Jessica Ann Catena
