What Makes Jordan Firstman Sing? Jul 02, 2019

Gird your loins for this epic hall of fame episode!!!!

My old pal JORDAN FIRSTMAN drops into the studio for huge laughs, insightful chatter, and so much tenor belting. We start with Jordans glowing review of Oklahoma and prep him for seeing A Strange Loop directly after the podcast. We war on a duet from Cabaret, unpack our amazing careers as 22 year olds, and then we go full camp with (Good Morning) Baltimore. Then Jordan does the unthinkable...a full song. In character. On the pod. He sings "Somewhere Thats Green" AS Ellen (Paige????) Greene around the 35:00 minute mark.

And this recap ends there because you need to start listening RIGHT NOW. AND SUBSCRIBE. AND REVIEW.
