Actor Jake Gyllenhaal is having some kind of week. Not only did his pop star ex-girlfriend, Taylor Swift, re-release the album documenting their ill-fated romance, but she also made a short film about it all, and released a second song and video that sent Swifties to their keyboards to demand a decade old scarf. We talk about some of Jake's other relationships, including romances with Kirstin Dunst and Reese Witherspoon, and then marvel at the audacity of rehashing a decade-old breakup.Earlier episodes mentioned:S7E4: Bad Reputation | The Forgotten Trash Queen Gloria Grahame & Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe (trashydivorces.com)05 Trashy Breakups: We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together | Taylor Swift (trashydivorces.com)PromoFSAstore.com.
