Opera Plot Happy Hour

Tina is joined by special guests Cassie and Sam Vasta and Octavio Cardenas, as they tell her about some interesting alternative staging ideas for this Puccini classic.

Last episode, we celebrated our 1 year anniversary. This week, we're sharing the 1 year anniversary episode of one of our favorite podcasts - Libations for Everyone - hosted by Charles Awad and Ben Quam.

It's our Anniversary!!!

Thank you to everyone who has listened to our silly opera podcast over the past year. We truly wouldn't have made this far without you.

For this episode, our fabulous Patreon members chose the opera, and they voted unanimously to hear us destroy Puccini's La Bohème...and we certainly deliver on the destruction bit.

Seriously, though, we are NOT on team Rodolfo.

Happy Treason Day, Peasants!

This week, we bring you poor man's Mozart; the off-brand cereal your mom bought, even though you specifically asked for Lucky Charms.

And you know what? It tastes exactly like the real thing anyways, so stop complaining.

Yes we totally planned the fact that we are releasing this opera on the 200th anniversary of its premier. It was 100% on purpose and carefully planned.Also: WE HAVE A PATREON! Join for awesome access to bonus episodes and more!

Oh, were you expecting Weber? Here's something better instead: Tina's favorite opera.

#Amandigress and #TangentTina are unleashed in this episode, as they attempt to get through the plot of Lucia di Lammermoor. Learn way more about their weddings than Lucia's. Oh, and syphilis.

Join Amanda and Tina for a little dance with the devil...or rather the devil's real-estate agent.

Special guest, stage director David Radamés Toro, tells Amanda and Tina about the world's first ever Mariachi opera.

Let me say that again: the world's first ever Mariachi opera.

In which the composer's life is more interesting than that plot of the opera.
