In Season 1, Katie and Madyson realized how crucial the folklore and evermore prologues were for their understanding of both albums. So in this episode, they read through the prologues/forewords of each of Taylor’s albums AND included her foreword for Carolina. Breaking down these forewords in retrospect, they notice references to tolerate it, mirrorball, daylight, and many more prolific moments (as per usual). At the end of the episode, they discuss their favorite lyrics from Carolina.
