Alexander Sage Oyen is an American musical theatre writer/actor/singer. Playbill magazine called him “one of the contemporary musical theatre writers YOU SHOULD KNOW” and he selected Mac Miller's “Circles” as this episodes CLASSIC ALBUM.

Mac Miller s a grammy-nominated hip-hop artist whose difficult career spanned multiple styles, or iterations. We focus on his career, his battle with celebrity, his superstar album, producer / film composer John Brion and more.

A quick disclaimer: Neither of us knew Mac personally. So everything here, is a result of research - obviously. Mac Miller’s story is so interesting, and inspiring. It was a story I personally didn’t know before recording this episode.
