Stepping out of the wood, out of the dark, out of the night, the so-cast pod is back for a chat about the surprising parallels between Wicked and My So-Called Life! Sure, Winnie Holzman is one of the main writers behind both projects, so it makes sense that they'd have some things in common -- and we go deep on all of it, from the costumes to the music to the original novel.
Guests this week: Costumer Samantha Rei; Scottish comedian Scott Pirie, and media historian Terrence Moss. Plus, from the Sewers of Paris archives, my 2019 interview with Gregory Maguire -- the author of the novel on which the musical Wicked is based! And then James and I share some of our own Ozian experiences.
Also, here's a link to the Wicked video that Samantha Rei mentioned in our conversation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vd7bOTZCYT4

On this week's podcast: A new substitute teacher arrives at Liberty High, bringing a shocking attitude, mismatched socks, and carpets galore. His class becomes the hottest ticket in town — but who really is Vic Racine, and is he as “cool” as the teens say? And who wrote that saucy sexy poem for the literary magazine?
In search of answers, I’m joined by the fabulous Scott Flanary (an educator and winner of Amazing Race season 29). Then James and I exchange stories of our own weirdly inspiring high school teachers.
