BONUS: Wicked Review

Episode 89.5-Wicked ReviewReleased 15 December 2024Hosts: John Schelt, Keoni Hutton & Leslie Reed
As we were recording Episode 90, Leslie and Keoni got sidetracked discussing the new Wicked movie for over 45 minutes.....
Since it would have resulted in a 2.5 hour episode, we decided to break the Wicked discussion out as a separate Bonus episode so we don't bore the people who couldn't care less about musical theater topics and just want us to get back to Halloween.  So if you're waiting on that, Episode 90 will be out soon giving our recommendations for holiday presents for the haunters in your life. In the meantime, heres our discussion on Wicked.
