It's Broadway, B*tch

Well, we did it, folks. One whole year. 50 musicals reviewed. 6 guests. 2 tragic heroes. In this special episode, Kristina and Alana go through all the musicals they've seen over the past year and rank them - their top 5, their bottom 5, and the bonus few that should be ashamed to call themselves art. But first, Alana has to talk for 20 minutes about the shows she saw in New York last week, so strap in for that. We'll see you in Season 4! *********************************** Follow us!

Welcome to SPOOKY SEASON! Your tragic heroes tackle your favorite Disney alt-cult-classic, THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS. How relatable is Jack Skellington's existential crisis? How long did it take for us to figure out that Sally is voiced by America's sweetheart Catherine O'Hara? And most importantly, who would've thought that giving a bag of bugs some big dick energy would make for the greatest villain of all time? We tackle all this and more, and we have a gosh darn good time doing it! *********************************** Follow us!

Today your tragic heroes tackle Amazon Prime's new Cinderella with Camila Cabello, Idina Menzel, Billy Porter, our nemesis James Corden, and perhaps most notably, NOT John Mulaney. Kristina and Alana break down their incredibly complex feelings on this upsettingly fun trainwreck, and then spend the remaining 53 minutes talking about John Mulaney to make up for how not present he was.

Well, kids… we found it. The disappointing stepchild of the musical world. Nothing about this musical was really worth any extreme emotion. Tune in for a chaotic episode where we trash talk Ryan Gosling and the almost dancing that Emma Stone attempts.

Let's learn to do it, baby! Today your tragic heroes could not watch the 2017 Broadway version of Anastasia, so they settled for the 1997 animated film. With the casting of theatre legends like Bernadette Peters, Angela Lansbury, and Kelsey Grammar, it was probably more stunt cast than the stage musical anyway. Come for the very brief actual discussion of the material, and stay for Kristina's history lesson on Rasputin, Russia's greatest love machine. ***************************************** Follow us!

We won't lie, it's mostly a Dolly Parton stan episode, but we know you're gonna be fine with that.

And now we get to the nitty gritty, kids. Part 2 of Les Mis is where Kristina declares her intention to bed almost every male member of the cast. If any of our fans can make this happen, feel free to reach out. Anyway, we take the time in the second half of our season opener to acknowledge the progress that Kristina has made. Her bar is now much lower for musicals, so she is mostly ambivalent rather than disappointed with them. You're welcome for listening. ********************************** Follow us!

Anyway, Alana and Kristina decide to head back to the classics with this *iconic* musical that Alana had slept on and Kristina had made her peace with never seeing. Is Funny Girl about a funny girl? Or is this more of a His Girl Friday situation? Are the girls funny? Both in the movie and in the pod? We may never know the answers to these.

Well, here we are again, folks. Alana has gifted a piece of her soul, all wrapped up in music and dancing, to Kristina. Aside from a wildly miscast cast, this musical has all of the classics: soprano ballads, knife fights, mis-treated lesbians, and the good ol' boys' dance break. We are all prepared for Kristina to stomp on this production and throw it in the dumpster. Watch along with us on Amazon Prime! ********************************** Follow us!

Welcome to our longest episode yet! We are briefly departing from our regularly scheduled Broadway productions to pursue one of Andrew Rannells' first major performances: the three-week tour of Pokémon Live!, sponsored by Nintendo in the year 2000. We sit down with New York theatre professional and Pokémon enthusiast Courtney Seyl to dissect this absolute fever dream of a show. Did we love it? Yes! Did we hate it? Also yes!

HAPPY NEW YEAR, Broadway Bitches! JAMAL HOWARD, Chicago Theatre Professional and recurring friend, returns to take the wheel from Alana this week, and introduced both Kristina and Alana to this incredible show - Passing Strange!

So. Alana chose this 'lil bop of a musical. One that she loves with all her lil musical theatre heart. And she presented it, on a pedestal, to the cold-hearted, musical-hating Kristina. And, also, special guest, Arkansas-based theatre professional Isabel Lane. Why would she do this? As an olive branch? A device of masochism? It's a safe bet that we will all be humming "76 Trombones" for the rest of time; but will we hum it begrudgingly? Or enthusiastically?

Are we men...or are we Muppets? This week your tragic heroes take on what still qualifies as a movie musical: The Muppets, starring Jason Segel, Amy Adams, and Kermit the Frog! We're also joined by the man, the myth, the legend himself, Kristina's partner Matt! Will Kristina like this movie that Alana and Matt love so dearly? Will they collectively divorce her if she doesn't share in the joy? Can we believe Kristina does not know who Michael Cain is?

Alana sat Kristina down this week to talk about everyone's favorite reimagined Wizard of Oz tale that isn't Wicked, on a complete whim, 15 seconds after it was mentioned in casual conversation. Kristina was not ready for it then, and continues to not be ready for it now. Join our tragic heroes as they watch the 1978 film starring Diana Ross and Michael Jackson, and discuss how one of Alana's favorite soundtracks went so horribly, horribly wrong.

Wow, Folks. Just, WOW. Alana lobbed this fever dream of a production at Kristina with high hopes that Kristina would TEAR IT APART. And, boy oh boy, did Kristina deliver. Kristina had wildly misinterpreted the plot of this play based off of the incredible name, and Alana brings her crashing down to reality with the TRUTH.

Ah yes, the Windy City. Or, as Kristina likes to refer to it, “The Queen Latifah musical with that Cell Block Tango song.” YOU HAD IT COMIN', you knew that Alana would give this choreographic masterpiece to Kristina like a love letter to a crush. Truly one of Alana's favorites, and we all know how those go down on this pod. Will Kristina love it? Hate it? Feel ambivalent like she does about most theater? CHICAGO.

THE PHAAAAAAANTOM OP-ER-A IS our Season 2 opener and another attempt at teaching Kristina culture. Alana lectures on the beautiful, complex, and iconic music, and tries to bring Kristina to the Andrew Lloyd Webber side. Will Alana convince her of its' majesty? Or is this the start of a grudge that Kristina will hold against ALW for all time? Why are there so many floating arms? Who fuckin' knows.

SEASON1 FINALE! This is a very special season finale/Halloween ep! And Kristina is In Charge! Will Alana enjoy this DCOM *classic*? Or has she missed the boat, and is Kristina blinded by nostalgia?

Alana invites Kristina into the cultural revolution that is Lin-Manuel Miranda's Hamilton, an adaptation of this founding father's life that Alana cherishes and worries that Kristina will not truly appreciate. They talk sexy history facts and the dynamics of the women behind the man himself- and, of course, they rank the fuckability of the cast members.
