Alicia and Sarah return to their love of musical theatre with a full analysis of the Netflix adaptation of Jonathan Larson's Tick Tick Boom. They reminisce about their own struggles turning 30, review the power of nostalgia for RENT fans, and analyze themes of success, fear of failure, and the need to make one's mark on the world. At the end of the discussion, they talk about the things they've been reading, watching, and analyzing outside of the classroom.
