Back on the cast this week is our collaborator through time and space and ERAS of our lives, singer-songwriter and wizard of discernment, Sofía Campoamor! We get an inside, retrospective look at Sofía's most studio project, "if you knew, i couldn't tell," including turning Wordle games into songs (and content!), world-building with friend of the pod Chris Peters, and an early ideation of this album that was all-oatmeal concept.

So much culture today! From swapping to catching up, there's culture all over the place. And there was music, and there were wonderful roses... speaking of standards and melodies! Jerome listened to Judy at Carnegie Hall, and Kenyon listened to A Strange Loop, and both have prepared book reports on their subjects. The two also remark on the simplicity of Tár, the complexity of Everything Everywhere All At Once, and Kenyon shares a ...

Are you ready for a true masterclass?? This week we have multi-hyphenate and MUNA-stan Matt Goldstein on the podcast, and yes, we cover all the topics you’d expect three iconic arrangers to discuss: key change theories, Eric Whitacre-inspired social media usernames, and facilitating from the page. We also dive into Matt’s work creating and leading the Gaia Music Collective and learn about how circle-singing and vocal improvisation ...

What is a singer if not a voice? And what is this podcast if not two voices, who happen to belong to singers, picking apart yet another Rolling Stone All-Time list. We take umbrage, embrace vagueries, and rail against this list's many mistakes -- which is not surprising, because we famously hate hierarchies. The episode kind of writes itself in that way. But we keep things both expressive AND effusive throughout, without ever hiccu...

We're Blaaaaaaaack!!! You know we couldn't stay away forever. Your two favorite gals are Black in the habit and back to all their old chestnuts -- Marianne Williamson's "Girlfriend, you are so on," Elastigirl's "I don't think so... I don't think so," and all the rest. In our grand return episode, we're celebrating the culmination of Black History Month by being iconic in these streets, finding the difference between lexicon and ant...

This week, we are not talking about that thing. No, really. We're not. Instead, we remark on the prevalence of clowns, do another round of Pixar predictions, and think about how the metaverse will distort our perception of distance. Because when you think about it, the Oscars are a Civil War of their own, right? ... anyway, social media has made us audience to everything which includes you being audience to this podcast. Going live...

Summer looms, winter unends, and your two favorite crazy old ladies are back to discuss all the news that's fit to print: what's been going on at the library, queer bullies on television, and making money off of RuPaul's Drag Race. It's taken us a...moment to get this episode out, but you can just chalk it up to moving slowly! You should try it sometime. These are the best years of your life, after all.

There's so much happening in this episode, it will be hard to give this description a structure! But let's start with the content: firstly, we've got special correspondent hopeful and one of our favorite lyricists Chris Peters on the pod this week, which is its own special treat. And we're talking about tons of things, like why Chris wasn't a music major, how he would format his Genius page, and the surprising similarities between ...

With Oscars on the brain and some s'wintry weather overhead, that can only mean one thing: it's Black History Month! After we get swept up in the mess of the Academy Awards and white people accepting apologies, we dive into some texts by Black authors to reflect on history, memory, and how we exist after death. If you've been grappling with the messiness of the diaspora or other people's versions of ourselves or the elasticity of h...

This episode kicks off a series we're beginning on the podcast all about lyrics. And today's theme: rhyme! Don't you love a good rhyme?? We're putting a lot on the table, from our personal definitions of rhyme (in addition to some more famous ones) to the non-universality of pronunciation, and others of the many ways words can connect. Also included: Oklahoma slander on Euphoria, Rihanna's baby, and anti-rhyme sentiment in pop musi...

Today isn't any other day. It's never tomorrow and always today which must mean the topic for today is... tomorrow! We're talking pasts, futures & presents, celebrating a specific anniversary, casting Cynthia and Ariana in everything, and addressing the Eminem question (which is separate from 2Ms, 2Rs) as we dissect Mx. Tomorrow and all the usages it has used, accrued, and divested, even. And will we ever understand exactly HOW lon...

2022 is the new girl, which means it's time to get absolutely AGENTIAL up in here. And to be as broad as possible and specific in those broad ways, we discuss resolutions vs. intentions, being 25, Kenyon's (dis)taste for books, Jerome's timeless, middle school yearbook message, and anything else blowing in on the digital winds of Twitter. And weddings! It's wedding szn! And also Aquarius szn! Get Agential! #GetAgentialIn2022

Well this week is all about our new favorite movie, West Side Story, of course. It also heavily features Jerome's new enemy, whom we're calling Jordan. Public Enemy #1. But we've got some real tears for the craft, as we literally map out when we cried during the movie, break down the queerness of Anybodys, witness some real Anita on Anita action, obsess over Ariana DeBose, the new superstar of the world, and even make an unexpected...

It's episode 73... a most magical number... This week Kenyon and Jerome both receive a special visit from a jolly and curious fellow, and we don't mean Santa! We're getting a taste of the 73 Questions treatment, and rehash our affinity for letters, normalize changing our minds, and get introduced to a whole family of Paulas.

This week is all about honoring the little life moments: the ones we were gifted by the late, great Stephen Sondheim, as well as the ones that Spotify and/or Apple Music have been tracking all year. We imagine ourselves in the Jetsons-verse, walk through our favorite Sondheim songs, uphold the accuracy of data, and learn a lesson that Steve would be proud of: giving is taking, and taking is giving! And whether you're happy & uplift...

Jerome's predictions have come true: Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande have been cast in the Wicked movie. And that can only mean one thing -- it's time for a full deep dive on movie musicals! We're going over everything from oversaturation in In the Heights to our newfound love of Fiddler on the Roof. A hot take about The Prom is shared, though it is separate from the James Corden of it all. And most importantly, remember this: a st...

That's right. You read correctly. This week is all about sports. And... theater? Hard to tell. Between the technobabble of the Metaverse and the advent of Kenyon's favorite month we're ending our #NetflixIsOverParty Party, diving into Colin Kaepernick and Ava DuVernay's Colin in Black and White, Untold: Malice at the Palace, and asking questions about audience, controversy, and consumption. And the questions really abound for us in...

This Listening Hour is Rated R for suggestive themes and ...gore? Listener beware! This week we're being big and going live from coast to coast once more.
