Jim Lanahan and Friends

The Broadway Husbands (Bret Shuford & Stephen Hanna) are performers who found love and professional success on Broadway in mega-hit shows such as Billy Elliot,  Hello, Dolly and Wicked. They discuss the impact of COVID19 on the live entertainment industry, how to stay focused and motivated in between contracts and that time Jim arranged an audition for Bret to join a boy band! We love Bret and Stephen! 

Then we answer these probing questions:

Mark Mester is a wildly popular TV news anchor at # 1 rated KTLA in Los Angeles, California. Mark and Jim discuss Mark’s early days at Dateline NBC, why paying it forward is a key component of Mark’s life and meeting Mark’s gorgeous partner (hint: it is NOT Jim!) on Instagram. Mark Mester is a DREAM SEQUENCE and we LOVE him. Thank you, Mark!

Then Scott (sort of) discusses the return of NFL football. Jon finds a bird that imitates Beyonce. Christine needs advice on picking up younger men (and somehow Scott knows all the tricks of the trade!)  Finally, Jim shares a moment of inspiration on the 19th anniversary of the September 11 tragedies.

Todd Newton is an Emmy Award winning host best known for E! Television’s Red Carpet Specials, WHAMMY: The All New Press Your Luck and The Price is Right LIVE! 

Todd takes us inside his days on the red carpet, including lessons learned from the legendary Joan Rivers. Then he reminisces about Julia Roberts reminding him of the importance of connection. Finally, Todd teaches us about getting bangers (that’s super cool tattoo lingo!).

In the second half, Producer Stephanie attempts to ruin the podcast during Jim’s big intellectual moment. Stephanie, PLEASE!  Scott gets immediate ‘rhea from this week’s ‘Yummy’ and we dissect Cardi B’s WAP ft. Megan Thee Stallion.

Possibly our most fun episode yet!
