at midnight ET on Amazon’s Wondery+ with the titles “On the Outside” , “Bad Blood” and “Revenge of the Swifties.” The wide release of the second episode arrives on Sept. 14, concluding with episode three a week later. An episode of bonus material is also in the works.
Reads a plot summary of the season: “Pop icon Taylor Swift has amassed some of the most devoted fans in the music industry. And those fans become a crucial weapon when Taylor decides to take on a very powerful, very famous manager — Scooter Braun. In the latest season of Wondery’s podcast series, ‘Business Wars,’ one artist’s quest to own her master tracks becomes an expensive, painful battle with the power to reshape the music business.
In 2019, Braun’s Ithaca Holdings acquired Big Machine, Swift’s record label which released her first six albums. Swift maintained that Braun then sold the rights to those records without giving her the opportunity to purchase them. She has since re-recorded two of those albums, “Fearless” and “Red,” both released in 2021.
Launched in 2018, “Business Wars” examines rivalries between two organizations through multiple episodes. Previous editions included examinations of conflicts between Netflix vs. Blockbuster, Coca Cola vs. Pepsi, Facebook vs. Snapchat, ESPN vs. Fox Sports, and the food delivery wars that pitted Uber Eats against DoorDash, Grubhub and Postmates.
“Business Wars” is the 2019 winner of The Webby Awards in the “General Podcasts — Business” category. In 2020, it won an iHeartRadio award for best business and finance podcast.
