Welcome to another music episode! When Jeffrey pitched a short film to Christopher (a companion piece to the new boygenius record) did you think he would listen to the album five or six times through, before getting to the short film? And when Christopher pitched the latest Taylor Swift album, did you think this would lead to Jeffrey talking a whole lot (again) about The 1975? Tune in for all the answers.

First and foremost, shout out to the Rocket Podcast. Again. Just, in general. We love us some accelerated geek conversation (clearly, have you heard us?): https://www.relay.fm/rocket

Our girls have been doing a really fun bit of press! But we’ve cherry picked this for you. Our guy from back in the day, Zane Lowe, talking to our girls. Courtesy of the Apple Music YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wleS4A_IDJE

A fantastic cover story from one of our old favourites (shout out Almost Famous) Rolling Stone, by Angie Martoccio: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/boygenius-julien-baker-phoebe-bridgers-lucy-dacus-the-record-interview-1234660514/

A fun video covering said Rolling Stone cover: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oq0oYU6h_Wg

Turns out a Rolling Stone cover as creative as this one (an updated homage to the famous Nirvana cover shoot from a 1994 issue of Rolling Stone) involves a lot of creative people. This is a fun window into that process and the thinking that goes into it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ew34XneMuyE

This is an album called Midnights by Taylor Swift. Please support this young songwriter. And more jokes along the same lines as the episode where we plugged Ed Sheeran. Let’s mix it up and give it to you as a YouTube playlist this week: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxA687tYuMWgXjGLvPvOWqXWgHEIA2JW6

This is a link to a documentary about Taylor Swift called Miss Americana. It’s on Netflix so quick, while we can still share passwords: https://www.netflix.com/title/81028336

This is the Matty Healy article from the New Yorker that is mentioned. It is sort of the secret key to this episode. Well, no it’s not. But it’s a good article by Jia Tolentino, especially if you’re not too fussed by internet drama and actually like talking about art and shit: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2023/06/05/who-is-matty-healy
