About this listen

In this episode of 13: A Taylor Swift Fan Podcast, we break down “Tolerate It”—the Track 5 on Evermore, and one of the most heart-wrenching songs in Taylor Swift’s entire discography. From lyrical parallels to Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier to raw Eras Tour performance memories, we explore why this specific type of hurt still resonates with Swifties everywhere. We dive into Taylor’s genius use of metaphor (“I made you my temple, my mural, my sky”), discuss the infamous Track 5 tradition, and reflect on the live Eras Tour performance—and speculate why “Tolerate It” was cut from later setlists. Plus: Easter eggs, hidden references to Joe Alwyn, the Aaron Dessner connection, and a Gilmore Girls prop surprise that’ll blow your mind. Featuring the bittersweet farewell of our beloved intern Saahir, this episode is packed with Swiftie tears, fan theories, and listener love. Whether you're here for the Evermore storytelling or Track 5 therapy, this episode celebrates everything that makes Taylor Swift a lyrical legend.
