Retrospective-a-Rooney: A Liv and Maddie Podcast

We have our very first Rooney on the show! Primetime Pete Rooney himself joins us to recount his experience on Liv and Maddie from beginning to end, including favorite memories with fellow cast members, his experience directing an episode (Repeat-a-Rooney), and more!

Our conversation on the wonderful recurring characters of Liv and Maddie continues! From the gentlemanly Holden to the unhinged Gemma, from the sunshine boy Josh to Katy's personal favorite Krahgg, plus a couple bonus ones, we share all our thoughts, both deep and humorous.

Two of my best friends join me to discuss one of this show's greatest strengths: its recurring characters. We have a thoughtful discussion about what they bring to the show while having a lot of fun and laughs all at the same time! Hear our thoughts on characters like Willow, Andie, Dump Truck, and more!

The editor of Liv and Maddie joins us today to tell us what it was like creating the illusion of twins played by one actress. We also hear about episodes that posed more challenges than others and what it was like stepping into the role of director for three episodes.

Keep the Christmas spirit going a little longer with our holly jolly new episode! We take a look back at each season's winter holiday episode and discuss their strengths and key points.

The forecast says there's 100% chance of a wonderful guest today! Johnny Nimbus himself, Kurt Long, joins us to tell us what it was like developing and playing one of the silliest and most beloved recurring characters on Liv and Maddie. Here about his audition process, thoughts he had about Johnny's character that we never actually got to see on the show, and much more!

My friend and former Disneyland coworker, Cassie, joins us to discuss her recent entry into the Liv and Maddie fandom and what her thoughts are on all aspects of the show! We discuss her favorite characters, such as Joey and Parker, make comparisons to her other new favorite show, Boy/Girl Meets World, delve into the topic of universality and how this show excels at allowing its viewers to put themselves in the characters' shoes even if they haven't been through what the characters are going through, and more!

Today's episode is extra special as we are joined by none other than the CREATORS of Liv and Maddie! John and Ron share with us the ins and outs of their experience developing and working on the show and we have a lot of fun and laughs while doing it. Hear behind-the-scenes stories, their theories about certain characters and relationships, how directing and writing differed from show-running for them, me endlessly trying to get them to tell us Parker's middle name, and so much more!

Happy Halloween! Join us as we take a look back through each of Liv and Maddie's Halloween episodes and why they were some of the most fun and inventive episodes of the series, especially one which is one of my favorite episodes of all time.

Welcome to our first multi-segment episode! In our first segment, I take a chronological look back at Liv's film and TV career, discussing which roles I prefer over others, tying together some loose ends about Sing It Loud, and more! Afterwards, who better to talk to than Liv's manager herself, Becky Bicklehoff aka Rena Strober! We talk about how she first got involved with the show, funny behind-the-scenes antics, why it was her favorite job she's had, and everything in between.
