Your Best Friend Edunn

привет! This week I invited the brilliant and fun, Jourdan Lewanda on the pod, where had an awesome conversation about film and theatre! We discuss our time spent abroad together in Russia, what Footloose and Shrek have in common, what makes a stupid movie good, the golden age of animated films, and her deep knowledge of film scores. Then we go IN on American theatre and how much more we love European theatre, and Jourdan shares a lovely story about visiting a Van Gogh exhibit in Russia with friends.

Boy oh boy! A new week means a new friend! This week I was honored to have the wonderful and hilarious Matt Landry-McWilliams! We talked about what else but his love for musicals and drag queens! We discuss the time he channeled Evita in middle school, why he loves being in the ensemble, how he teaches theatre over zoom (!), running a summer camp, our shared love of West Side Story, Trixie Mattel's deserved win on AS3, why stage musicals shouldn't be adapted from movies, his dream of becoming a reality star, why community is so important to him, and later advice on being yourself.

It's the first episode and the first friend!! This episode, I interview digital artist and pull-up queen Maya Levy who also happens to be my sister. We talk about how she survived living with over 12 people in a house (twice!), why she loves hyper-pop, why she can't listen to Mitski anymore, what makes a good pop song sad, the Charli XCX anthem that must play at every party, and later she gives us some advice on dealing with heartbreak and loneliness.
