Decoding The End of an Era: Episode 2
23/12/2025 | 54 min
In part two of our End of an Era recap, we dig into the backstage scramble to reinvent the Eras Tour, the way Taylor balances authority with warmth, and how the dancers—especially Cam—shape the heart of the show. We talk representation, body image in the industry, Florence Welch swooping in like a fever dream, and those crew bonuses that prove Taylor puts her money where her mouth is.

Miss Americana Autopsy: Taylor Swift's Body Image, Politics, and Fame
04/12/2025 | 2 h 1 min
This week on Evolution of a Snake, we’re reopening Miss Americana and giving it the forensic rewatch it deserves before the End of an Era docuseries arrives to rewrite the narrative all over again. We dig into Lana Wilson’s direction, Taylor’s unusually heavy involvement in shaping the film, and the emotional architecture behind its most revealing moments—her struggles with body image and disordered eating, her anxieties about ageing and motherhood in a pop-star machine that demands perpetual youth, and the shaky, newly forming political voice she lets us witness in real time. Five years later, the documentary feels even more confessional and strangely prophetic; it tells us exactly who she was becoming long before the rest of the world caught up.

Scientifically Ranking Taylor Swift’s Post–Big Machine Albums 🤓
20/11/2025 | 1 h 5 min
We’re finally doing it: ranking Taylor Swift’s post–Big Machine albums, from Lover through Showgirl, using a semi-serious “scientific” system we built to avoid pitting Old Taylor against New Taylor. In this episode, we break down cohesion, execution, longevity, and overall Snakeology to figure out which version of independent-era Taylor is truly operating at her peak. The addition of The Life of a Showgirl complicates everything in ways we didn’t expect, and the final ranking surprised even us.
