Let's talk through So Long, London!

In this episode of The Swiftie and The Scholar, Uncle Jerry and Angela dissect the poetic lyrics of the fifth track from Taylor Swift's 2024 album, The Tortured Poets Department.

They find tons of literary devices and references, and Uncle Jerry even makes another correct prediction on the song's intro.
