  • 005: Hadestown OBCR vs Live Recording | We're livin' it up on top
    Hey, little songbirds! This week, Maggie and Kiara take a train way down under the ground to discuss the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical, Hadestown. Based on the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, Hadestown uses jazzy music and soaring vocals to tell a story of love, loss, and what it means to truly be free . Along the way, we share our favorite moments from both cast albums, burst into song several times, and potentially break off a relationship we didn't know we had. Come join us on the ride! Here's your ticket, mind your step, and whatever you do, don't look back.

  • 004: Harry Potter VS Percy Jackson | Defining success

    Harry Potter has become a worldwide sensation, and yet Percy Jackson and the Olympians, a similar and just as well-written series, hasn't. Today Maggie and Kiara explore the possible reasons why Harry gets the limelight, and whether Percy Jackson deserves more credit than it's given. Also, we discover that Simon Pegg was indeed in Mission: Impossible.

  • 003: The Lion King (1994) | What makes a "true" fan?

    This week, a review of Disney's 1994 animated classic, The Lion King, turns into a discussion about nerd culture, gatekeeping, and what ultimately defines a "true" fan. There's laughter, rants, and a healthy amount of arguing - uh, we mean, respectful debating.
