The Great Gaylor Disappointment (Premium E303) Sample
Megastar Taylor Swift and three time Super Bowl champion NFL tight end Travis Kelce announced their engagement in one of the most-liked Instagram posts of all time. Naturally, we wondered how the Gaylor community is handling the news. Back in premium episode 235, Liv introduced us to the Taylor Swift fans who believe that the megastar is secretly queer and closeted, and that she has hinted at this through lyrics, visuals, timing, and public friendships.
On this episode Travis, Liv, Jake and Julian examine reactions from the community, ranging from acceptance, denial, bewilderment, and rage. Plus, Jake treats us to a story about secret occult practices and the magical year of 1989.

QAnon? In The Big Year 2025? (E337)
What is QAnon today, nearly eight years after the first Q drop? In Marc-André-Argentio’s new book QAnon: From Conspiracy Theory to New Religious Movement he argues that QAnon is best understood as a “hyper-real religion.” Even years after the Q drops stopped, QAnon exists as a lived religious practice, where true believers are commissioned to redpill the normies and posting is a rite. The book demonstrates that the movement has gone through three stages of existence: proto-QAnon, canonical-QAnon, and apocryphal-QAnon.
Travis and Jake chat with Marc-André about his book and how it builds on other books that cover the movement.
