metallic taste, body dismorphia and virginity
.
We didn’t plan this. We hit play on Lorde’s surprise drop Virgin—and it hit back. Hard. In this raw, off-the-cuff episode, we unpack an album that feels like skin peeled back to the bone. Virgin is not the Lorde you think you know—it's guttural, stripped, and uncomfortably honest. We talk through the aching vocals, the lyrical gut-punches, and the emotional landscape she scorches and then salts. No notes. No script. Just real-time reaction to an artist laying herself bare.
