Over the last year, we’ve seen a lot from Taylor Swift—earning more than $1 billion, launching her five-continent concert tour, releasing two “new-ish” albums, and going to the Super Bowl. The Plugged In team examines the new album, the Swiftie phenomenon, and why fans are so dedicated. Adam Holz then speaks with Paul Asay about the new Angel Studios movie Sight.
