On this episode of The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast, we're doing another QA Q&A. Andy is out and we can't do any of the shorts without him so this is what we got! But it's a good one because we got Lin-Manuel Miranda (fellow Quaid) to send in an unreleased demo of I Am Moana from the film...Moana. He's setting the record straight on the misheard lyrics. Also, for all you theater rake fans, we've got some killer talk about title sequences in films. Plus a jizz story, a correction and a sincere apology for misspelling Pee-wee last week (my bad), and a big happy birthday to Tyler!

Bobby, Eddie and Brandon Ray put their musical knowledge to the test by choosing their own teams of the greatest musicals ever—with no paper, no notes and plenty of questionable picks. They debate classics like The Phantom of the Opera, Hamilton and Grease, while Bobby shares his thoughts on Lin-Manuel Miranda and Brandon admits he has never seen a Broadway show. From famous productions to musicals they barely remember, it quickly becomes clear these guys may not be the most cultured group for the job. Watch The BobbyCast on Netflix!

We throw words like genius around but it's hard to argue using that word around Lin-Manuel Miranda, the man who in large part can be credited with such pop culture juggernauts as IN THE HEIGHTS, ENCANTO, and of course HAMILTON. Here, on his first visit to Happy Sad Confused he talks about it all, from coming full circle with MOANA to why he turned down a Spider-Man villain role, to why success didn't always fulfill him.

Legacy, Ocean, and the Voices Who Carry the Story Forward On the red carpet for the World Premiere of Moana, with the filmmakers, performers, cultural leaders, and craftspeople who brought this new chapter of Moana's journey to life. From the screenplay to the choreography, from costume design to visual effects, this episode reveals how a global phenomenon stays rooted in Pacific identity and storytelling. Thanks to Disney Pictures for the audio. Featuring Dana Ledoux Miller, Auli'i Cravalho, Catherine Laga'aia, Emma Puahi‑Shapazian, Amaya Masoli, Frankie Adams, John Tui, Lin‑Manuel Miranda, Maia Kayser, Rena Owen, Thomas Kail, Tiana Nonosina Liufau, and Liz McGregor.
Everything old is new again this week on Breakfast All Day. Here's what we reviewed in our latest episode: MOANA (2026). If you've seen "Moana" (2016), you've seen "Moana." Disney's going back to the animation well one more time for their latest live-action remake. The songs from Lin-Manuel Miranda are the stars again, but newcomer Catherine Laga'aia has an appealing presence in the title role. Dwayne Johnson is back as the demigod Maui (of course). In theaters. THE MAN WHO WOULD BE KING: WAS IT GREAT OR WERE YOU 8?. This is our favorite game to play. This time, Alonso chose a film from his childhood to see how it holds up today. Sean Connery and Michael Caine co-star in this 1975 action epic from legendary director John Huston. If you've seen it, is it still great? Rentable and streaming in a variety of places. MOVIE NEWS LIVE! Lots to talk about always including early reactions to Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey" (we're seeing it Monday morning and will have an out-of-the-theater reaction), Emmy nominations, the new "Dune: Part Three" trailer, Louise Lasser and more.

For this week's main podcast review, Katie Johnson, Daniel Howat, Ema Sasic, and Tom O'Brien join me to review and discuss the Disney live-action remake of 2016's "Moana" also titled "Moana" starring Dwayne Johnson, Rena Owen, John Tui, Frankie Adams, Jemaine Clement, and Catherine Laga'aia. Arriving only two years after "Moana 2," this is another cash-grab by Disney to capitalize on the popularity of one of their most recent properties, propelled mainly by its leading star. We all know it. We all see it. But is that enough to detract from what many of us considered to be a pretty great film ten years ago, only now we're seeing it, beat for beat, in live-action? With "Hamilton" director Thomas Kail behind the camera, original song creator Lin-Manuel Miranda producing, and Johnson and Clement returning, this should be another hit for the Mouse House, right? Please tune in as we discuss the transition from animation to live-action, the story, performances, songs, visuals, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening, and enjoy!

It stars Johnson (reprising his role as Maui from the animated past films) and Catherine Laga'aia in her film debut as the title character.Hosted on Ausha.

Moana is back in Disney's new sort-of-live-action remake, but how far does it go from the original? Dwayne Johnson returns as Maui, appearing in the flesh this time around. Catherine Laga'aia plays Moana, who sets out to save her island, along with her chicken. The film features a new song from Lin-Manuel Miranda, who also wrote songs for the original animated film.

Today's episode features a very special guest, Hadassa Candiani, known professionally as Adassa, whom you may recognize as the voice of Dolores Madrigal in Disney's Encanto. In this vulnerable conversation, I get to talk with Adassa about what it means to keep showing up—for your family, your work, and yourself.Adassa shares her experience of surviving a Covid-related paralysis that nearly ended her career and left her unable to sing, move, or care for her children. Her healing came through her faith and husband's support. We also talk about how creative expression through writing her memoir, combined with music, gave her a new outlet for healing, as well as breaking down the stigma around struggles.Adassa is an Oscar, Grammy, and Golden Globe winning artist and a featured vocalist on the Billboard Hot 100 number-one hit “We Don't Talk About Bruno.” A Colombian American mother of seven, she has performed alongside Lin-Manuel Miranda (who is kind of a hero in our household), Pitbull, Snoop Dogg, and Megan Thee Stallion. Her debut memoir, Love Keeps Showing Up: Music, Messes, and Miracles, releases alongside a ten-track country album, both telling the story of a woman who kept going with when everything said stop.If you are facing challenges in your life that seem overwhelming and need a little inspiration to keep going, you will certainly enjoy listening to this delightful interview.And stay tuned for a little extra at the end!Get to know Adassa:WebsiteTikTok @adassaofficialX @adassaofficialFacebook @adassaofficialpageInstagram @adassaofficialLinkedInBook recommendations:The Giver: A Story About Conformity, Control, and Society, by Lois LowryThe Sunshine Mind: 100 Days to Finding the Hope and Joy You Want, by Tanya Radd and Raquelle Stevens Follow me on:Instagram @stacyennisFacebook @stacyenniscreativeLinkedInYouTube @stacyennisauthorTo submit a question, email hello@stacyennis.com or join my email list http://stacyennis.com/join and fill out the form on the page.

After a decade in development, legendary documentarian Ken Burns released his long-awaited series, The American Revolution. Burns returns to Rapid Response to share key lessons from the founding of the United States—and the parallels between the revolutionary era and today. He also reflects on his admiration for Lin-Manuel Miranda's Hamilton, the obstacles he faces in his ongoing quest for truth, and why the pursuit of virtue is as essential to American democracy as the pursuit of happiness.This episode originally aired on Rapid Response in November 2025.Visit the Rapid Response website here: https://www.rapidresponseshow.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
When a 22-year-old woman living with relatives in a boarding house disappeared on Dec. 22, 1799, her loved ones didn't immediately worry. But when she still hadn't returned days later, all eyes turned to her lover, whom she'd supposedly been set to marry the last time she was seen alive. Levi Weeks came from a family with money, so his rich brother did something that was unheard of at this point in American history: He hired fancy lawyers. And that's how Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr ended up on the same side defending a man against murder charges in 1800. The case, referenced in Lin Manuel Miranda's award-winning musical "Hamilton," marks two firsts: The defense panel was America's first legal Dream Team, and the Weeks' case was the first recorded murder trial in the country's history.

Can you dig it?The Warriors are coming out to play again—but this time, they're heading to Broadway. Lin-Manuel Miranda and Eisa Davis are transforming the cult 1979 Walter Hill movie into a full stage musical based on their acclaimed concept album. Their version reimagines the Warriors as an all-female gang and combines hip-hop, rock, salsa and R&B.Can the gritty story of a Coney Island gang fighting its way home survive the jump to Broadway, or does turning The Warriors into a Lin-Manuel Miranda musical completely miss what made the original movie work?We also get into Michael Caine licensing an AI-generated version of his voice to narrate The Odyssey, Instagram's attempt to become television, Hollywood's improving box-office numbers and the deeply uncomfortable Season 3 premiere of House of the Dragon.Plus, Trailer Trash features Ricky Gervais' Alley Cats, King of the Hill Season 15 and Apple TV's The Dink. We also run through this week's Views or Snooze releases, Staff Picks and whatever else falls out of the Labyrinth.Let us know in the comments: Does The Warriors work as a Broadway musical, or should they have left this cult classic alone?Please like, subscribe and share the show.Keep It Canon.Watch the YouTube Show: https://youtu.be/F5ZmPB7bcRsSupport Radio Labyrinth on Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/timandrews▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀Hosts: Tim Andrews, Jeff Leiboff, Dustin Lollar and Lizzie Bruce JonesAudio Podcast & YouTube Video Edited by Dustin Lollar ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀✨ Support Our Social Media & Merch: https://linktr.ee/RadioLabyrinth

Jimmy addresses the latest news, like Trump kicking off America250 after musical artists drop out, before speaking with Lin-Manuel Miranda and Britt Lower.
Here comes that heat again. Looking at temps in the mid-90's by Monday. Uffdah. Sadly, my shoulder injury kept me from working on the firepit in my backyard yesterday. But thankfully, it's been improving all week, and hopefully by next week, I'll be good to go. In the news this morning, a massive earthquake in Venezuela kills over 30 people, a pilot on an Air Canada flight had to be restrained by passengers after he suffered a seizure, the Knicks fan who dumped trash all over the sidewalk & stole a garbage can has not only been fired from her job…but after returning the stolen trash can…she got fined by the city, and the city of Fond du Lac is looking to pay you to move there! In sports, the Brew Crew complete the series sweep of the Reds with a 6-5 win last night, Team USA plays Turkey tonight at 9pm, a look at some of the interesting foods available at World Cup stadiums during the games, Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold is arrested, the IOC is going to start paying athletes, and a World Series of Poker player was using a buttplug for a card protector and got in trouble! We talked about what's on TV & streaming today/tonight. Plus, a remake of the Blair Witch is in the works, a musical based on "The Warriors" movie is being produced by Lin-Manuel Miranda, and some research on music lyrics has revealed that tunes are a lot meaner and more immoral than they used to be(DUH). A woman was saved from a burning house by her barking poodle, and a dude was recently reunited with a missing wallet that he didn't even realize he lost. It's "Hypothetical Thursday"…so we asked each other hypothetical questions today. Jean's question for Brian was: "If you could relive one year of your life, which year would you choose?" Meanwhile, Brian's question for Jean was: "You get $250,000…..but every traffic light you hit for the REST of your life is red. Do you take the money?" Elsewhere in sports, Josh Hokit appeared on the Ariel Halwani show and doubled down on his comments about Michelle Obama, the Mascot Hall of Fame is looking for nominations to join the Hall this year, and the Miami Marlins are going to hook one doggo up with a dream day after a recent viral video. Office Cora joined us just after 8am to talk about what she's up to in the 715 this weekend, and in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music"….we had stories about a Waffle House lawsuit, an orange ooze that's becoming a problem in California, A.I. bots stole more than $264,000 in taxpayer-funded financial aid by making fake accounts for fake students, a #FloridaMan who was purchasing E.D. meds without a prescription & selling them at a retirement community, and a #FloridaWoman who got arrested…kicked a cop…and had a crack pipe stashed in her vagina.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Mandy Gonzalez Sings Lin-Manuel Miranda.A Broadway powerhouse known for her starring roles in Sunset Blvd, Wicked, Hamilton, and In the Heights, Mandy debuted this show at Carnegie Hall to a standing ovation and rave feedback from both audiences and Lin-Manuel Miranda himself (see attached). She's bringing the production to select cities nationwide this year, and I'd love to set up an interview for Mandy to speak about the show and collaboration with Lin! Everything I Know is a symphonic concert experience celebrating Miranda's iconic music—from Hamilton, In the Heights, Moana, Encanto, and The Little Mermaid to rarely performed gems like 21 Chump Street and “Delivery.” As one of Miranda's earliest collaborators, Mandy brings a uniquely personal perspective and emotional depth to the material. It won't take long to understand exactly why Lin-Manuel Miranda praises Mandy Gonzalez as “...one of the greatest singers on earth.”Mandy and Lin first met in 2004 and have collaborated for over 20 years. After years of concert performances, Mandy saw growing audience demand for a full symphonic experience of his work and partnered with Lin to create this show.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

From the beloved Today show host Sheinelle Jones comes an inspiring collection of heartfelt life-lessons from hard working moms who raised some of our favorite celebrities. When Sheinelle Jones launched ''Through Mom's Eyes,'' a recurring Today show segment interviewing celebrities' mothers about raising successful kids, she had an ulterior motive-she wanted to bring all their wisdom to bear on raising her own three children. So she asked Lin-Manuel Miranda's mom about staying present with kids while balancing a demanding career, talked with Lady Gaga's mom about how to recognize bullying, and got tips from Steph Curry's mom on making sure even future NBA royalty does his chores. She has since interviewed dozens of remarkable women and gathered a candid, warm, and insightful collection of valuable lessons about life, love, and parenthood. Now in her first book, Through Mom's Eyes, Sheinelle is ready to share even more of those life-changing secrets with the world. Combining insights from celebrity mothers with her own journey through modern parenting, Sheinelle reveals how to make it through the hard parts of motherhood and still tap into the joys of it with empathy, generosity, and solidarity. Through Mom's Eyes is a beautiful celebration of those who are the guiding light for their loved ones-mothers. Sheinelle Jones is the cohost of Today with Jenna and Sheinelle on NBC. She's also the host of Through Mom's Eyes, a digital and broadcast series for Today where she interviews mothers of celebrities to discuss their journeys raising successful children. She lives in New York City with her three kids. Because you love Author Events, please make a donation when you register for this event to ensure that this series continues to inspire Philadelphians. Books will be available for purchase at the library on event night! All tickets are non-refundable. (recorded 4/16/2026)

Today's guest built an audience of millions before she was old enough to sign a record deal, turned a 30-minute crying freestyle into her debut single, and made one of Gen Z's defining breakup anthems out of a phrase that became its own internet language. But her real story isn't the viral fame or the streams. It's the part that plays like a runaway and teaches like a masterclass: how she left home at 17 to chase music, what it costs to become a person in public, and everything about the business nobody explains until you've already survived it.And The Writer Is... Nessa Barrett!In this episode of And The Writer Is, we go deep on:• Why she ran away from home at 17 — a 4AM ticket, six school bags, cops on her trail — to make music• The truth about "i hope ur miserable until ur dead": she didn't write it, it's not her favorite, and why she sang it anyway• "pain" — the 30-minute freestyle she cried through in the booth that became her first single• Why she can't record with Auto-Tune — and what she learned the first time someone handed her a finished song to cut• Signing to Warner Records on Zoom during Covid — and the messy contract she had to escape first• "All of my confidence comes from my fans" — the performer who still gets embarrassed easily• The childhood trauma and the generational cycle she says she's trying to break• Why she closes her eyes every time she records, and writes a song like she's building a movie• The lowest point of her career — and how prayer, faith, and going back to her core brought her out of it• "I've never loved my music as much as this — and I didn't know it could feel this way"And much more...

Within they discuss the debut of director Lisa Cholodenko and the history of one of Erich von Stroheim's final works as a filmmaker. Sidney Poitier plays a militant revolutionary and Lin Manuel Miranda's historical musical are here.

Jason Fraley celebrates the 10th anniversary of "Hamilton" sweeping the Tony Awards by flashing back to a trio of chats with Director Thomas Kail. First, you'll hear their 2016 phone interview about growing up in Alexandria, Virginia. You'll then hear them at the 2016 Records of Achievement Awards at the National Archives. Finally, you'll hear them at the 2018 Kennedy Center Honors where Kail was joined by "Hamilton" creator Lin-Manuel Miranda, arranger Alex Lacamoire and choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler. (Theme Music: Scott Buckley's "Clarion")
Today's guest is a Grammy winner, a two-time Billboard #1 artist, and one of the defining pop voices of the last decade. But her real story isn't the anthems or the awards. It's the part that plays like a rollercoaster and teaches like a masterclass: how she almost quit, what going #1 actually felt like, and everything about the music business nobody explains until you've survived it.The press version skips the touring deficits, the depression at the top, and the moment in an Echo Park apartment when she nearly took a job at Smoothie King. The question underneath everything she says: once you stop chasing the metric and the moment — who do you become?And The Writer Is... Lizzo!In this episode of And The Writer Is, we go deep on:• Why she wanted to quit music the day "Truth Hurts" went #1 — and the 2017 low point that was actually worse• The touring economics no one explains: how you gross $1M and still finish the year in the red• Why the indie grind that built her, in her view, no longer leads to the mainstream• "She stopped giving a fuck about what we wanted" — Beyoncé's self-titled as a blueprint for artistic autonomy• Why she only talks to people who buy her music — and what comment sections do to her nervous system• The bumper-sticker hook theory — why "Truth Hurts" works when it breaks every rule• Writing "About Damn Time": 83 versions of the chorus, and how the simplest line won• Robert Glasper's lesson: there's no such thing as a wrong note• Why good songs don't sound great at first — watching "Good as Hell" go from silly to gospel• "I make whatever the f*** I want" — and why arriving at that sentence took everything before itAnd much more...

Sign up now at Patreon. It’s two podcasts (Pod Yourself and the Frotcast) for the price of one! Patreon dot com slash frotcast! This episode is free, but $5 a month gets you all the premium ones (two a week!). This week on the Frotcast, bitter infighting consumed the group chat as the third day of negotiations about what to watch for this episode reached an impasse. While the talks were Vanced, the Strait of Discourse stayed mercifully open. What we're trying to say is, We didn't watch a movie this week. Sorry. Rapper/pornographer Ray J has months to live. He also has a very strange interview with Cam Newton's silly hat. Ray J answers the question “Are you gay?” with a story about what people do when they go home. It gets worse from there, believe it or not. A sample exchange: Ray J: “Do you listen to Biggie Smalls?” Cam: “Can you just answer my question?” We'll always love you for moving your hat 7 times in a 30 second conversation, Ray J. What we do in life echoes in eternity. Then we get some IRL Kyle Mooney action when streamer 4_Inches gets spotted at In N Out Burger (drink!) by Jakob with a K (drink!), the lead singer of Sublime (drink!). What follows is one of the dumbest conversations we've ever been privileged to hear. This then leads to one of the Frotcast's top two or three Nobel Prize-worthy anthropological theories; Socal bros = saltwater juggalos (drink!). Next, many are calling it The Most Australian Story Ever: man uses his dog to unsuccessfully bludgeon a murderous crocodile but is mercifully saved by a Sheila having a ciggy and his mate Kevin Bevin, who then blesses us with a wonderful new term for a penis. Finally, someone tried to assassinate Trump again, but this time it was a libbed out soyboy who geared up for murder and then took a mirror selfie doing the Lin-Manuel Miranda lip bite. WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING?? Perhaps making campaign pledges to only the most insane people in America and then aggressively doing the opposite has some sort of deleterious effect on said crazy people. Who can really know what is in anyone's heart though? The Frotcast's official BPD GF Olivia Reingold did what any good WCHP dinner journalist would do and documented the action by taking a selfie video. You can poison our houseplants any day, girl.
What if luck has less to do with chance and more to do with understanding the systems around us? We talk with Judd Kessler about the hidden markets shaping opportunities in everything from concert tickets and jobs to relationships and organ transplants.

The public outrage was inevitable. The New York Times Magazine published a list of the 30 greatest living American songwriters. Two hundred and fifty music insiders submitted ballots. Six Times music critics and writers sorted through it all to get to 30. For Wesley Morris, it was both daunting and thrilling. Luminaries like Bonnie Raitt, George Clinton, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Mariah Carey submitted ballots. How to honor those submissions while narrowing down and exercising a critic's judgment? Nearly 6,000 comments later, one thing is clear: Everybody's a critic. Many are asking the nagging question, “How can you leave out so-and-so?!” Our critics included! So, Wesley invites a few of the project's participants, Jon Caramanica and Joe Coscarelli, the hosts of “Popcast,” and Sasha Weiss, a deputy editor of The Times Magazine, to rehash it all out.
