Naughty fun at the turn of the century.

The great Kyrsten Williams (from Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, Shrinking, host of Black Facts 101) stops by to add some much needed diversity, equity, and inclusion to INYTLM. We discuss The Wiz: the stage show, the movie musical, and the NBC Live event. It was lots of fun!

Here's a link to her Instagram. If you live in or near Santa Monica, go see her show!

Chris has the controversial take that Emilia Pérez is a very good movie musical and his friend Sam Payes (Super Glass Houses) drops by to set him straight and tell him to do better.

The wickedly overdue Wicked episode. Full of spoilers for the second movie, fair warning. Recorded over a month ago. I'm sorry and I'll do better.

I have two very important things to tell you! Seriously!

Before we stumble to the polls on this surreal, demoralizing Election Day of 2024 and then strap in for a long, grating night (or several nights) of cable news speculation, touchscreen charts, and punditry, let's take a couple of hours to remember a couple of musical whitewashes which feel almost as false as the rest of this whole thing feels. INYTLM is back to offer you an invaluable civic resource: two cynical musical theatre analogies that perfectly match the two major presidential candidates on the ballot.

Is anybody theeeeeeeere? Does anybody caaaaaaare?

Remember last week when we had our first guest ever? And her name was Jenna? This is Part II of that. It's in two parts because we talked for over four hours! And when we were done all of the nearby restaurants were closed and we were starving.

This second part is dedicated to our analysis of Hedwig and the Angry Inch. But if you missed last week's Heathers discussion go ahead and check that out. Seriously. It's a hoot.

Jenna emphatically refuses to let me tell you her last name. But check her out on Instagram and TikTok: @foxwithamonocle. You may or may not even see her last name listed on one of those!

So if you've got no other choice, you know you can follow our voice(s) through the sharp noise and takes of this wicked little pod!

INYLM welcomes its FIRST GUEST EVER. Jenna stops by and tells us how much she needs you to like Heathers The Musical! This is the first installment in a FOUR HOUR marathon two-parter. Tune in next time to hear Part 2 in which we talk about how much Chris needs you to like Hedwig and the Angry Inch!

Jenna will not let me tell you her last name, but check her out on Instagram and TikTok: @foxwithamonocle.

Our pod is God, we're what killed the dinosaurs!
