We're holding space (a whole episode in fact) for this very special Wicked edition - because a film this epic deserves its own dedicated episode. (Also, as our editor pointed out, we have so much to say on this subject that this ep is almost as long as the film itself without any additional segments!)
This week, the buzz is all about Sarah talking Wicked on ABC NewsRadio, Gladiator II jumping on the Wicked bandwagon on SNL, the infamous Wicked "Holding Space" interview plus the iconic interview about the interview & the Golden Globe nominations (including four for Wicked). Then we break down the Wicked movie in (great) detail, discussing everything from fun facts to cameos to script changes to the many, many easter eggs (did you catch them all?). There are loads of spoilers here!Want to support the show? Hit the follow button so you don’t miss an episode, leave us a rating or a review and join our community on Patreon.
