What are the odds Taylor Swift doesn't own the internet again this year? Slim to none, and we're ready to call it. On this episode of What Are the Odds?, Taylor Strecker breaks down the 2026 race for the most-Googled person on the planet - and honestly, she's hard-pressed to find anybody who can beat Swift. The Eras Tour, Travis Kelce, the engagement, the wedding… the algorithm didn't stand a chance. But don't sleep on the long shots: Bad Bunny, Sabrina Carpenter, Haaland, and a certain billionaire whose name keeps showing up in the news for all the wrong reasons.
Then we're talking football, and Taylor's officially bleeding green. She grew up a Patriots girl in the Brady era, but her wife and in-laws have converted her - "Go Birds" is now a personality trait. We get into the Eagles vs. Patriots matchup, the A.J. Brown factor, and why she'd trade the Eagles every single time. Plus: her one-sided rivalry with Kate Bosworth (still going strong since ninth grade), a lesbian crush confession, and the only thing that could get her to watch a preseason game - cocktails and a gorgeous plate of food.
