Normal Theatre Podcast

LOCAL PRO WRESTLING; "This guy looks like an accountant! He's gonna do your fucking taxes!" - Jheri Gigolo, pointing at Bud in the audience; wherein Bud woefully neglects to make a Goldstar Lesbian joke when Kiki says, "Oh, goldstar dot com. I'm on that website!"; first time a married couple comes on the podcast; in which we learn that Spenser always cries at Rent; the perfect amount of MILITIA ETHERIDGE jokes are made; etc.

Vincent lucks out a second time with a very good play. Plenty of spoilers. And just so you know, there was a very long tangent about what it's like having an early middle aged penis and how it pertains to frequently, accidentally, peeing on the seat- which I edited out, because, gross. 

Two buckets of Jack in the box mini tacos; recording from Bud’s car, parked in front of The Office on a Friday night; in which it turns out Vincent really likes plays; the character assassination of a local theatre director; “what was the vomit made out of?”

"What are the parameters for this conversation?"; "Ok this is starting to get non-consentual. . ."; Rachel's deep aversion to jazz-hands; Further exploration of Sheila's general standoffishness; What exactly is a normal accent for a worker in a 1950's Chinese restaurant?

Titty shimmies; Ketty rips some people's buttholes; A nutritional perspective; Cabernet sauvignon; "It's a nice boob- give it a squeeze"; Shitty white girls; Really terrible acting; What happens when you leave the house lights on; Bud gets married

Children making cum jokes on stage; feminism for 12 year olds; multiple Bud ex-girlfriends get roasted by Jourdan; Spring Valley parking lot boozing; Adelle is shocked and appalled; flatulence; Jourdan gets swindled out of $20; real talk about how important it is to bone your friends (Season 1 finale big reveal!)

Stuart is a fucking clown- Nathan embarks on a gis career- Bud gets very drunk, and once again mentions one of his ex-girlfriends by name within 15 minutes- Good acting vs. good performing vs. good directing- The case of the incredibly long stage- "That's my seat. . .no, I bought that seat; it has my name on it. . ."

"You're trying to convince me. . . and you're a dummy."; "Ok we're not ever having a guest who has seen "My Dinner With Andre" back on the podcast, ok?"; "I think I've sucked a lot of the air out of the room . . . I ruin everything.".  Probably the drunkest and most belligerent episode to date. 

Not a goddamned bad thing to say about this play whatsoever. You'll be shocked by how delighted your hosts were by their experience. I'm not even being sarcastic; this was a very fun play. Please please please check out the North Park Vaudeville and Candy Shoppe theater. SUMMER AND JEFF FOREVER.

White saviors; Massive cultural appropriation; Marriage proposal; Super Cluster; Bad acting; Sitar versions of pop songs; Traditional Japanese bamboo flute; Universal benefits of yoga

"I'd rather choke on shit..."

Wherein Bud's brain is finally broken; We throw immense shade at Laughlin, NV; Lots of old white ladies who love to hear the "N" word

Ok, so this one kinda went off the rails a bit. 

Eleven beautiful women, two little boys, one washed up film director. We saw "Nine" at Lamplighter Community Theatre in La Mesa, CA. We sat about three feet from the stage and almost lost our minds. It was bad. . .it was so. . .uh. . .GUIDOOOOOOOO!

The fact that you don't want to see live theatre is the very reason why you should. Listen each episode as we reluctantly go to the theatre, then get drunk and talk about our experience.
