The Tony Awards - Broadways biggest night! But like all award shows - winners are sometimes subjective. Lauren and Karen discuss when the Tonys have gotten it right and when they've been oh so wrong. It really does matter what you're up against...

DSLP #177 - Tony? Who's She?

This week Lauren takes us through Young Frankenstein - a musical she finds... meh. When is a show too raunchy? Lauren questions if she's becoming a prude and we talk about why this movie would be better off still just a movie.

DSLP #180 - Evan Hansen is a Narc!

This week we welcome friend of the pod, Logann, to chat all things Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. Is Joseph a good dude? Were his brothers right to throw him down a well? Does this musical/biblical story teach us anything? Let us know!

DSLP #181 - Lessons Learned...None!

Logann returns and brings with her a new fanfiction - is it the worst one yet? How fast did Karen's soul leave her body? It's that bad.

DSLP #182 - Karen's Soul Leaves Her Body (fanfiction)

We revisit The Comedy About Spies more in depth this week! It hits all the spy troupes and it's funny! But also the twists! Double crosses! Triple crosses! Here's hoping it comes to Broadway.

DSLP #183 - Shiraz!

Lauren is back this week and we tackle a fan request: Promises, Promises! Find out why Karen accurately predicted Lauren wouldn't like this show and why it reminds us so much of How to Succeed, but without the wink to the audience.

DSLP #185 - Lauren Goes to New York!

Buckle up - this is a weird one... Karen skims the surface of this classic musical, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers! How can you make a musical about kidnapping seem romantic? You can't! But damn if those ABC brothers weren't great dancers!

Maybe Happy Ending, take 2! After a slight recording mishap, we're back and Lauren takes us on a deep dive of this Tony winning show. We go down a lot of tangents, talk about fireflies (lightening bugs), and what it means to give something up to hold on to it.
