Joy and singing, but also nuance? Okay, I’m in.
If you’re somebody lucky enough to have musicians as friends or if you’re lucky enough to know where to find a piano bar, you may have had the experience of freely singing along to nostalgic music with your friends. That is the feeling at the core of this podcast. However, Larry Owens does with this podcast what he does with all his comedy work; he uses song as a vehicle to discuss the big question of “Why?” Yes, the title of this podcast asks “WHAT makes u sing?,” but the space Larry creates helps him and his guests process *why* certain music lives on within our memory and sense of self, both in our individual lives and in our communities. See also: Larry has the vocal chops to sell an album circa yesterday, but what’s beautiful about this podcast is that he is generous in spirit and makes his guest feel comfortable, regardless of the guest’s level of singing experience. It feels like a conversation at a gay bar on a good weeknight rather than a musical theatre BFA showcase. Can not recommend this highly enough.

I have this unfortunate quirk that I cry when people break into song and Larry’s voice is so rich and warm-like a good blanket from Ann Taylor. Don’t subscribe to many podcasts, but count me...Read full review »

There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who like and appreciate musical theater and those who are upset Dress Barn closed. If you’re at a loss for where to purchase your polka dotted cold-shoulder flutter-sleeve chiffon dresses for next spring probably won’t love this show. But everyone...Read full review »
