Recorded Aug. 24, Meggles and Rubee (without Jess) share Taylor Swift news and fan speculation, noting repeated missed “drop” dates. They discuss Swift becoming the youngest inductee into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame and her thank-you letter, plus Travis Kelce referring to Taylor as his wife at a press event. They cover “I Knew It, I Knew You” vinyl release/preorders and its advancement to the second ballot for Single of the Year at the 2026 CMA Awards, Taylor sightings in London with a new shorter haircut and recurring lilac/floral/“twos” Easter-egg theories (including TS13).
