Rory is a great interviewer, and I love hearing so much about CMU and his experience since I also went there. Love the convos, love how they get into the nitty gritty of the industry, and love the Rachel bloom and Donna Lynne episodes! ♥️♥️♥️

Not only is this podcast always fun and with great stories (ranging from helpful stories about the guest’s life to fun secrets/untold stories the guest tells), but since not every guest is an actor, it gives a great range on the lives and paths of different theater professionals. As someone going...Read full review »
