Listen to learn about the best childhood ever, Disneyland vacations, and flower arrangements. Most importantly, listen to hear about Laci Peterson and how much the world lost by one selfish and horrific act by a pathetic man.

Nothing like an SNL cast member in a movie based on a Jane Austen Novel talking about his favorite SNL sketches. We are talking about the movie Fire Island and it is the gay Pride & Prejudice adaptation we all needed. Listen to hear all about  a group of friends on vacation in Fire Island, finding love, stealing boats and wearing the most iconic underwear I've ever seen. Bowen Yang as Jane and Joel Kim Booster as Lizzie is truly the perfect cast.
