Taylor Swift and the Art of the Strategic Flop

Taylor Swift’s The Life of a Showgirl broke every streaming record and still got called a flop. Critics say she’s out of ideas; fans say the lyrics sound like ChatGPT in heels.

This episode dives into how pop stars weaponize boredom, why “bad” albums reset fandom addiction, and what Baudrillard, Bourdieu, and Banet-Weiser can teach us about performing failure for profit.
