Did You Queer About… Olivia Rodrigo’s new album and new songs from Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Rose Gray and Lily Allen?

Ben and Mikey seem pretty happy for two guys not in love. Olivia Rodrigo has released her third studio album — and it’s a banger. In this week’s deep dive, the boys unpack Olivia’s evolving sound, explore how she continues to subvert expectations, and reveal the unlikely pair of Sex and the City characters who appear to have inspired more than one track. Elsewhere, the big questions keep coming: has Taylor Swift released her worst-ever number one? Has Rose Gray just delivered the best song of her career so far? Is Ariana Grande taking aim at an ex-boyfriend — or her own fans — on her latest release? And could a full Lily Allen remix album be on the horizon?
