November 20, 2025 Schall We Talk Episode 10 - Marissa Rosen
Robyn sits down with her lifelong friend and Broadway powerhouse Marissa Rosen to talk about growing up together on Long Island, chasing big theater dreams, and what it actually feels like to make your Broadway debut. Marissa shares how she landed “For the Girls” with Kristin Chenoweth, the very un-glamorous story behind her onstage concussion in Water for Elephants, and what it’s like to be the “character type” in an industry obsessed with leading ladies. They reminisce about middle school elections, bad wigs, and high school musicals, then wrap things up with a chaotic musical-humming game and a sweet (and slightly unhinged) drop-in from Mama Schall.
In this episode:
Robyn explains why this is actually episode 11, not 10, and what happened to the “lost” triathlon episode
How Robyn and Marissa met in pre-K and ended up doing school musicals together (Into the Woods, Jack’s mom, Little Red, the whole thing)
Marissa’s early break in My Big Gay Italian Wedding and how that show opened doors in NYC
The midnight “Broadway booty call” that led to her debut in For the Girls with Kristin Chenoweth
The moment onstage when she got to say, “I’m making my Broadway debut right now” and the theater exploded
Life as a working performer: off-Broadway, tours, workshops, and why being a “type” can actually be your superpower
The Water for Elephants concussion story: weighted hula hoops, flying rope, and finishing the show anyway
Bat Boy at City Center: massive theater, short rehearsal window, and stepping into Marissa Jaret Winokur’s role
Robyn & Marissa swap memories of middle school: class president, speeches, and failed treasurer campaigns
A musical humming game that completely falls apart (and somehow still lands on Little Shop and Sound of Music)
Quick chat about Marissa’s Christmas tour with Jessica Vosk and her holiday album with Marty Thomas, The Award Winning Holiday Album
Mama Schall calls in for the Patreon producer shout-outs and a tiny dose of chaos

November 13, 2025Schall We Talk Episode 9 - Mama Schall
This week Robyn sits down with the one and only Mama Schall to talk about what it was like raising a child with Perthes disease, keeping a marriage strong and why laughing through the worst moments kept their whole family afloat.
This episode includes
Robyn’s Perthes story: the misdiagnoses, the house-call doctor, years of braces, surgeries, bone spurs, and learning to walk again
The hospital days: turning the den into a mini hospital, a recliner tipping over, emergency surgeries, and gift-shop bribes

Marriage talk: meeting Papa Schall at 16, the “magic lock” trick, and 52 years of laughter
Parenting advice: teenage daughters, staying open when kids are struggling, dealing with anxiety, and why work ethic matters more than career choice
What people don’t know about Robyn: the mushy center, the anxiety, and why rainy days still hurt

Robyn Is Engaged: Part 2
Thank you for the insane amount of love this week. Today, Robyn sits down with Dr. Piano Man (and Security) to tell the full story from their side—how they planned the beach proposal, the “message in a bottle,” and every misdirect that kept Robyn guessing.

Operation “Bottled Up”: who knew, when they knew, and how the beach plan came together
The date pick: why October 19 won, Kimberly Williams-Paisley scheduling curveballs, and a last-minute sore throat
Dr. Piano Man’s backstory: Spain → physics → U.K. → U.S. citizenship
Culture mashup: Mallorca 2026 villa, Spanish menu, hora and breaking the glass
On love: the first-week “I think you’re my person” moment and why the goal was simply “make her happy”

October 23, 2025Schall We Talk Episode 6 - Robyn’s Engaged!!
ROBYN IS ENGAGED!!!!! After years of dating stories and near-misses, Robyn says yes to Dr. Piano Man — on the beach, with a message-in-a-bottle, parchment letter, and family close by. There are happy tears, a perfect oval ring (with a braided “bow” band), and two white birds circling overhead. It’s romantic, hilarious, and very us.
This episode includes
The proposal: Long Beach boardwalk → “castaway bottle” → the letter → the yes
How he pulled it off (and why Robyn totally misread the clues)
Ring talk: oval center, braided band, the sweet “bow” detail and ghost-doodle origin story
Mallorca 2026: the villa, the food, and why the date was secretly booked months ago
Calling Regina on-air, Mama Schall’s producer shout-outs, and what happens next
Life stuff: shifting from “marriage is a scam” to “this is my person”
Tease for Part 2: Security + Dr. Piano Man share the behind-the-scenes timeline
