Matt Rogers on 'Bring It On'

Comedy writer, singer, co-host of the Las Culturistas podcast, and now Prince of Christmas, Matt Rogers is filling a musical comedy niche previously occupied by...well, no one at all. Is it possible that he got here by following his inner Torrance Shipman, aka Kirsten Dunst's character from the 2000 film Bring It On? Matt shares why the movie was important to him growing up, how he relates to it as a former high school star athlete, and how he found his way to his current Christmas throne. Then, Jordan has one quick thing about holiday horror hits. Listen to Matt's album, Have You Heard of Christmas? Matt sings with Meghann Fahey at Vulture Fest 2022 Feeling Seen Merch! *** With Jordan Crucchiola and Matt Rogers Feeling Seen is hosted by Jordan Crucchiola and is a production of Maximum Fun.

Rebeca Huntt on 'Frances Ha' & Titular Characters

Rebeca Huntt’s debut feature is a personal documentary that, even through its specificity, tells a story that is familiar to many but rarely depicted on screen. So it follows that when she thought hard about what character made her feel seen, no one character jumped out. But the ones that she named – Frances Ha, Poetic Justice, Lady Bird, Matilda – had something special in common with one another, and with Beba. Plus, Rebeca and Jordan bond over a childhood of watching movies as a family activity (regardless of the MPAA rating!). Then, we keep the Greta Gerwig love rolling with one quick thing about her new BARBIE. *** With Jordan Crucchiola and Rebeca Huntt Feeling Seen is hosted by Jordan Crucchiola and is a production of Maximum Fun.
