The Michael SchmidtUSA TODAY Network's Taylor Swift reporter has had a whirlwind first week on the beat, but he's pulling himself away from the relentless Swift news cycle to answer questions from readers like you, live on Instagram.

Bryan West earned the job over hundreds of applicants because of his background producing Emmy-winning journalism and his deep knowledge of all things Swift.

This week, he worked the CMA Awards red carpet where Nashville's country music community welcomed him to town and reminisced about meeting and working with Swift. Then, he connected with fans in Buenos Aires, Argentina, ahead of the return of the Eras Tour there — with some costume changes and new surprise songs, of course.

One of the easiest ways to follow along with Bryan is through his social media. He's @bryanwesttv on Instagram, Tiktok and X. And at noon (EST) on Thursday, he'll be going live on Instagram to answer reader questions.

He'll be joined by Mallorie Sullivan with USA TODAY and Marcus Dowling with The Tennessean.

Drop your questions below or on Bryan's Instagram account before Thursday, and tune in to discuss all things Swift.
