Summary[]
The very lovely and extremely talented Kristen Hertzenberg stops by to chat about her childhood ambition for singing Opera, dropping that dream for musical theater, and taking “Acting for Opera Singers” as an actual class, for real, in college. Matt and Kristen reveal the secret world of “8 count” parties. Paul invents Karoa-opera, and explores a world where we we outlaw pasta. Matt and Kristen debate the plot and morality of The Phantom of the Opera. Is the Phantom a date rapist? Can there be theater in Florida without the crinkling of wrappers? Why is Matt the only person who knows why all three in the studio played Right Field as baseball players in school? Scoop Mail: SactoMonkey calls out Paul for baseball “rehearsal”. Jeff takes sports breaks at work. Kevin's bad job was as a soldier, where in remote areas, stirring flaming drums of burning poop. He also asks Paul about David Goyer's She Hulk comments. Sine in Denmark doubles down on asking vague questions. Jock Vs. Nerd: Clippers New Ballm'ing Owner Vs. 12 Years a Star Wars cast member.
