The Stunner episodes

  • Jamie Rubio & Fangirling

    Jamie Rubio is a voice actor, which is cool; but what's really cool is that she has achieved her fangirl dreams. In 2016 she met her favorite band, A1 and has since kept in touch with the boys. She's also a big K-drama fan. What's it like to be up close and personal with your idols? What else is there to dream of?

    WARNING: There will be gushing.

  • He & The Theatre

    It seems like we'll still be mostly stuck at home this 2021. Meaning I still can't go to the theatre. Through 'Stage Kiss' by Sarah Ruhl, I try to explain what makes the theatre special for me.

  • Season 1 Wrap

    Stats: Ten episodes, four guests, two months, immeasurable joy.

    Thank you, everyone. We'll have a holiday break and be back on January 5, 2021.

    If you want to stay in touch (I do), find @stunnerpod on social media — yes, I know, I mentioned a different handle on the show, my bad. We're rebranding when we don't even have a brand yet, but that's 2020 for you. Talk to you soon!

  • PJ Rebullida & Lessons in Dance

    With us is choreographer and Galaw.Co Dance Theater founder PJ Rebullida. If you think that we’re going to talk about dance, you’re right. But wrong as well. If art is continuous with life, then this conversation on dance also threads through the many aspects of life, especially life in the middle of a worldwide pandemic.

    Contact PJ on Instagram (@PJRebullida), and follow @Galaw.Co on Instagram and @GalawCo on Facebook.
