Friend of our podcast cinematic universe, Rascal, joins us for what is most certainly the first in a series we may call Musicalize This! We go beat by beat, proposed song by proposed song to dive into Rascal's version of a Pride and Prejudice musical. And, it's incredibly funny!
Got a musical to pitch? Let us know!

Life has been lifing so we will be back soon with INTO THE WOODS part 2 - a compare and contrast with the 2014 movie. In the meanwhile, here is our deep dive into RENT from the GLEE đ AGGRESSIVE days.
"Welcome to the BONUS EPISODE! Today, instead of talking GLEE, Corrina and Ian discuss RENT the musical/the movie! There's a lot of ACTING FACES OFF! A lot of ambiguity around 90's East Village culture! A lot of hoops jumped through to justify musical theatricality!"
See you soon!

Letâs talk Matilda! Not James/Peach. Thereâs a school that has only lines; no Fosse. We talk amazing choreography, clever lyricism, and of course, James Corden. Trunchbull is out of pocket, the storytelling is excellent, and Bruce? He can do it.

BEEP BEEP! Weâre here to talk about The Last Five Years! And also T-Pain. But mainly to litigate and analyze the transgressions of one Cathy Hyatt vs. one Jamie Wellerstein. Who is objectively worse? Also, which J. Pierpont Finch would win in a fight? The answers⊠may or may not surprise you.

Itâs THE PROM the musical the movie day and Corrina and Ian cannot escape Ryan Murphy. Itâs a show thatâs so young, gay, and Broadway, we donât even recognize Nicole Kidman. We find a way to parallel High School Musical, discuss the Corden of it all, and give one of those kids the Full Ernie.
Anyway, watch that video where Patti LuPone haunts a laundromat.
