Connor and Dylan are joined by Antwayn Hopper (A Strange Loop, Hair). This trio delivers a high energy episode while a summer storm rages on. Antwayn blesses our ears with his beautiful baritone voice, taking us on his journey from Topeka, Kansas to the stages of New York City. Of course we chat all about A Strange Loop, where Antwayn made his mark as Thought 6, as well as the creative beauty of making his Broadway debut in the latest Hair revival. We learn about Billy Porter’s take on The Life, which Antwayn starred in, and how sharing his whole self has led to moments like that. These three laugh and throw a little shade, wondering about the state of the dramaturg, swooning over Norm Lewis and Brian Stokes Mitchell, and Antwayn even suggests who should replace Wendy Williams on TV. Hint: you know them. There are recs of Dermot Kennedy’s music, Mary Rodgers’ memoir Shy, and American Monster. It’s a thrill ride of an episode, and Antwayn brings the DRAMA!
