You're Ruining My Life: Gorgeous + Fortnight Aug 11, 2025

Show notes

This week, we cover two songs that bookend a love story in a surprisingly heartbreaking way: Gorgeous + Fortnight! FYI, we spend the first fifteen minutes or so talking about how Djo is coming to Rochester (!!!) and also the movie Pavements ... we promise we do stick to Taylor after that.

We also have a special clip this week from the lovely Kay, host of The Swacket! We were lucky enough to be guests on her podcast a few weeks ago, and now she is returning the favor for us. Find The Swacket anywhere you stream podcasts, or give her a follow on Instagram @theswacket!

PS: I cannot believe we got through this entire episode without talking about how Freakier Friday is currently in theaters, and also how in the OG Freaky Friday Lindsay Lohan's character notoriously says "YOU'RE RUINING MY LIFE-A!!" The girls that get it, get it.
