The Satire of Blank Space
Podcast: The Swiftie and The ScholarPublished On: Thu Feb 05 2026
Description: In this episode, we are covering the fourth song that Taylor Swift submitted to be considered for induction into the Songwriters Hall of Fame—Blank Space. This 1989 track was one of her first pop hits, and Uncle Jerry finds the humorous and feminist lenses the poem was written through to be interesting to dissect. We’ll wrap the conversation up and talk about the songs as a whole collection next week.Works Cited:Tabula RasaDactylIambYellow Rose of TexasThe Ballad of Jed ClampettGilligan’s Island Theme SongBallad MeterThe Gallic WarsThe Twelve Caesars – Suetonius – Aff LinkThe Madwoman in the Attic – Sandra M.
