The first leg of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has come to a close, with the pop superstar having performed in stadiums across North America for several million people.

A few of those people are friends of Popcast. This week and next, we’ll speak with a few of them about their experiences at the show.

On this week’s Popcast, conversations about the consonances between the Eras Tour and Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour, the way Swift does (and does not) deploy dance as part of her arsenal and the thrills of seeing Swift perform for the first time.

Guests:

Wesley Morris, a critic at large for The New York Times

Brian Seibert, who writes about dance for The New York Times and others

Yasi Salek, host of the Bandsplain podcast
