Send us a textWelcome to Episode 235! For years and years we have been listening to people calling out silencing critics and First Amendment rights. Well rarely has it been called out from acts by the government of The United States Of America. But here we are. The head of the executive branch and his minions are trying it-- pressuring media to fall inline with what it is they approve of or else pay financial and legal consequences just because they don't like what is being said or shown.Censorship is alive and well in "the land of the free and the home of the brave," it would seem. This week The Boys are discussing the statement leading to the 2nd Late Night Host being suspended indefinitely because a corporation bowed to political pressure from the current Administration The chair of the FCC tried to intimidate and silence Jimmy Kimmel. The outrage was swift and intense -- as it should be-- but does it all mean and what should we be expecting moving forward? These Boys have thoughts.Kicking things off though, Casey & Mark are talking BB27 as the last weeks are upon us which leads to Casey sharing about his participation in local version of The Challenge. Then Mark is sharing about his latest observation and experience as a CTA trainer rider.Trash Talk topics include tea from a former Broadway cast member of a long running Broadway show which celebrated a milestone recently, a Fox New host advocates for murdering homeless people, and reviewing a study on kinks.Its one for the books this week. So getcha a full glass of a nice port vintage (maybe a spritzer this week?) and pull up a nice seat to the table to join your GBFFs for a catch up and chat.

Send us a textWelcome to Episode 234! What a week, amiright?? The gun violence seems to be exploding across the United States with at least 4 known school shooting in the last week or so. And those are just the schools. There have been countless targeted gun shootings all over the country in the last week. One of which seems to be dominating the airways.Last week, far right conservative political activist and influencer, Charlie Kirk, was tragically gunned down and killed on a college campus at a stop on his "The American Comeback" tour in Utah. Specifics have been slowly shared out about the details surrounding suspect, motive, condition, etc. but the fallout has been more than dominating the airwaves. This is not the first act of political violence to take place in the last 6 months, but it seems to have struck a chord with so many. In this week's Mid-Section, Casey & Mark are discussing what we know so far of the murder, the major punditry points, and the legacy left by the proud white nationalist.Kicking things off this week, The Boys are discussing the latest aches, pains, trials and tribulations with the experience of aging as a gay man. It certainly is ridiculous to be discussing at their age! This on the heels of someone's birthday! Mark & Casey are giving you the rundown of a day on the town to celebrate, Casey!Trash Talk topics this week include a deep read on The House floor by Rep. Sarah Jacobs to the most bigoted members of Congress, a man takes matters into his own hands when someone forgets some party favors for the kickoff of NFL season, Bad Bunny flips the bird to ICE, and a man has been ticketed for needing a Slurpee....badly.And The Boys have got recommendations for you to! This one's got heft (and we ain't talking about their weight) with some levity of humor to balance. So pour yourself a balance bottle of port vintage and pull up a seat to the table in the library to join your GBFFs as they kiki about this last week.

Send us a textWelcome to Episode 233! Being summoned to meetings is a daily event for so many folks. Thankfully most of our meetings are not televised worldwide. But most of us aren't making decisions that effect not just an entire country, but effects the whole world.Last week RFK Jr., the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) which includes the Center for Disease Control (CDC), was summoned to The Hill to testify under oath to a Senate sub-committee. And what a shi*show it was. The meeting was probably worse than anyone would have expected. His gravelly voice wasn't just nails on a chalkboard, it was static on a 1950's television when there was nothing on a channel. The sub-committee members lit the inept and unqualified Secretary up! From reports of chaos in the ranks for the CDC, to firings of those not supporting his views and demands, to his dangerous and conspiracy laden beliefs of vaccines... it was fireworks and the Senators laid bare for all to see their failure in confirming his nomination and many, many reasons we should all be petrified for the our health. While his voice was already a wreck, RFK Jrs leather face wasn't scorched off under all the heat!But first things first! This week is kicking off with The Boys taking a walk down memory lane through their experiences in middle and high school which leads to some tall tales of their teachers and experiences with peers.This week's Trash Talk topics include, the alien from Alien making an appearance on the actual Senate's floor (how did it get through security?), a judge who reads the wrong verdict in court, Tucker Carlson wants details on gay sex, and finding your high school bullies on "the apps".All this and recommendations too??

Watching my college's reunion cabaret this year, I was struck by how old fashioned and bourgeois so much of the musical theatre repertoire being presented was. The songs that folks had brought to perform were things like “Stars and The Moon” by Jason Robert Brown and selections from Grey Gardens. The material was similarly conventional when I was a student. At the time it seemed normal to sing songs about middle class marriage and imbalanced heterosexual relationships, even within the hotbed of an alternative progressive culture. It seems odd to me now. Why did our songs and our theatre not reflect the world that was happening on our college lawn or in our classrooms?

In this deeply moving and refreshingly honest episode of Mirror Talk: Soulful Conversations, we sit down with Edward Miskie—actor, singer, producer, and now author of the book Cancer, Musical Theatre, & Other Chronic Illnesses. Edward takes us through his rare cancer diagnosis, the raw and absurd realities of treatment, and his journey toward healing, self-advocacy, and reinvention. Ten years after surviving a rare form of lymphoma, Edward reflects on how cancer dismantled his life—and how he built something even richer in its place.Edward speaks candidly about chemo, heartbreak, identity loss, sex, alcohol, and the chaotic beauty of finding yourself again after trauma. His insights are brutally honest and beautifully empowering. This is more than a cancer survival story—it's a story of reclaiming joy, identity, and purpose.

She was just one of five students in the U.S. chosen by the Grammy Museum for its summer screen scoring program in LA. She is also a winner of the prestigious YoungArts Award with Distinction, Stuppler joins us to share some of her compositions, and tell us about what these honors mean to her and what opportunities they may open up for her future.
