It's the end of summer, and Yonit and Jonathan are taking a break from the news with a nugget of pure Jewish joy. Andy Nyman — the West End actor, writer, director and magician currently starring as Max Bialystock in The Producers, and previously as an acclaimed Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof — joins the show for an Unholy Conversation. Why does Mel Brooks' nearly-60-year-old joke about Hitler still land? What makes Max Bialystock - who could have been Tevye's grandson - so beloved, even in his desperation? And is the Broadway musical, as a form, secretly a Jewish one? Andy answers the question by giving a rare performance of a musical classic — rendered in Yiddish. You won't want to miss it. In this episode: The Genius of Mel Brooks: How The Producers transforms satire into an act of healing and an uncompromising "fuck you" to history. From Tevye to Bialystock: Exploring the thread connecting the working-class milkman of Anatevka to the scheming, desperate, yet deeply human Broadway hustler. Art in Times of Darkness: A rare behind-the-scenes look at performing comedic Jewish art—and deciding to keep a daring scene in the show—in the wake of global tragedy. Exclusive Live Performances: Andy delivers three bespoke, stripped-back performances directly in the studio: "We Can Do It" (The Producers) "If I Were a Rich Man" (Fiddler on the Roof) A haunting, tender Yiddish translation of "Hushabye Mountain" (originally by the Sherman Brothers). 00:06 Introduction to Unholy Conversations 00:09 Introduction to Andy Nyman 01:57 The Enduring Appeal of The Producers 05:50 Mel Brooks and Jewish Healing through Humor 08:29 Defiance in Comedy: Pulling Down Pants 09:59 Exploring Max Bialystok's Character 17:30 Max Bialystok and Tevye: A Generational Connection 18:23 The Complexity of Tevye 22:58 The Essence of Fiddler on the Roof 30:44 The Current Jewish Climate 35:40 The Jewish Influence in Musical Theatre 42:32 A Yiddish Lullaby: Bridging Cultures 44:24 The Importance of Representation 44:25 Personal Connections and Impact

Of course we are referring to the Big Lie of the 2020 election. Within the last week Dumpy Don took to the podium in a primetime address and spouted lies, misrepresentation, and released documents proving there was no actual election fraud evidence and in fact, evidence was presented Russian interference and worked to re-elect Dumpy Don. The Boys are breaking it down for you, giving you talking points, and the true tea.Kicking things off is the Tea Party this week with a caller voice memo to discuss multi-season television shows and the latest on the sudden tubbing of Lady G.Trash Talk topics this week cover a Florida women received upsetting, random vanity plates for her car, how to get banned from Olive Garden, a Malaysian official is warning the people about what turns people LGBGTQ+, and one Oscar winning actor had such a horrific smelling fart -- it's still a topic of conversation over 20 years later.

Send us Fan MailWelcome to Episode 261! So it's the 250th Anniversary of the United States of America declaring their Independence from Great Britain and King George singing, "You'll Be Back"! A lot has changed throughout the years, but perhaps none as dramatically nor as quickly as they have since January 2025. Many things are harder and more challenging. Some activities and and experiences you just can't have right now.In this week's Mid-section, you GBFFs are sitting down and talking about what foundations have been shaken, what actions and activities we struggle to perform. There are some things we are can't do that we used to be able to do. The shifts and changes... they come quick and in many cases unexpectedly. It's a topical, strange, and at times hilarious conversation painting the current state of the US of A as we celebrate the 4th of July!First though, it's a visit to The Tea Party and this week the tea is piping hot when Casey brings up a very secret and selective drug trial for a terminally ill patient; so selective in fact, only one 80 year old man who is the most powerful man in the world has access to it (it's Daddy Dumpy Pants). Then The Boys are reviewing and absolutely glorious painting by one trash right-wing Congressman during a committee hearing with the Post Master General. You won't believe who it was and what he had to say.This week's Trash Talk topics include a man going to extraordinary lengths to avoid paying the food tab at his local restaurant, an update on the UFC fighting trash, South Florida Pride gets homophobic, and has Lizzo been forgiven? how is her "return" album performing?All this and some fresh recommendations for you as well! So get yourself done up in your Uncle Same best, pour yourself a cup of red, white, and/or blue port vintage, then pull up a seat at the table to join your GBFFs. Get ready! It's time to paint!!=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-Let The Boys of Painted Trash know your thoughts on this week's topics and episode!

Stephen Cole is returning to StoryBeat for the third time. He's an award-winning musical theatre writer whose musicals have spanned the globe.Stephen's first production was Dodsworth starring Hal Linden. His Off-Broadway musicals include After the Fair, The Road to Qatar and Inventing Mary Martin. He won the prestigious Kleban Award for The Night of the Hunter. And Saturday Night at Grossinger's had successful runs in Dallas, LA, Florida, and Sonoma.Broadway legend Chita Rivera toured in Casper, which was reborn as Casper-The Friendly Musical. Merman's Apprentice, premiered at Birdland in New York and won the San Francisco Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Score. Stephen's latest musical, Goin' Hollywood, had its world premiere at WaterTower Theatre in Texas.His published books include That Book About That Girl, I Could Have Sung All Night, and MARY & ETHEL…and Mikey Who? which we talked about during Stephen's last appearance on this show. His current theatrical memoir, Camelton, also doubles as his one-man show, which played to sold-out crowds in New York.I've read Camelton, and can tell you it's a terrifically entertaining account of Stephen's extraordinarily challenging time writing a musical celebration for the Emir of Qatar. His reminiscence captures all the crazy sturm und drang of creating a massive musical under commission in a foreign land.

Send us Fan MailWelcome to Episode 256 of Painted Trash Podcast: Your LGBTQIA+ Podcast of Hilarity, F*ggotry, and Discourse! Despite his aversion to horror content, Mark was seated with Casey earlier this week to view the new horror film, Obsession, now playing in theatres. Following the showing of the new film, The Boys got to talking about obsessions and how those show up in people's lives including theirs! And what are The Boys obsessed with (or who)? What famous obsession the world may know and then Mark & Casey discuss what happens with things become physical. It's the type of discussion you'd expect with your GBFFs on a somewhat taboo subject. As you might have guessed -- the laughs ensue even when the humor goes more than "blue". First, in this week's Tea Party, Casey's got a mug full of piping hot tea on the sloppy performance by the host during the recent live broadcast of the finale of Survivor Season 50. After 25 years of hosting, you'd think Jeff would know you don't wanna break the mystique of the segments not yet aired. So why did he? Casey knows and he's giving you the tea! Then Mark is giving us the deets on a recent murder and attempted suicide in the gay and fetish community in Chicago. It's a shocking situation and if the tea's as piping hot as it seems, it's gonna make for a scalding hot docuseries! And hint: this story is a perfect lead in for the Midsection!Trash Talk topics this week cover Roseanne's threat to leave California, how is it possible Spencer Pratt may have a legitimate shot at becoming Mayor of Los Angeles, and closing things out-- apparently the $1.7 billion dollar slush fun isn't enough for Dump '47, now the Orange Thief in charge is trying to make sure he never has to pay taxes despite the hundreds of billions he made since getting back into the White House.Oh, and yes, there's recommendations too! This one chocked full with topical discussion, hot tea, hilarity, and even some discourse. So grab a full glass of your tasty port vintage of choice, check your diaper and getcha a fresh one, and pull up a seat at the table with your GBFFs to talk sh*t. It's time to paint!!=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-Let The Boys of Painted Trash know your thoughts on this week's topics and episode!
