“Delicious New York Moments” with Andréa Burns

Connor and Dylan are joined by Andréa Burns (A Walk on the Moon, In the Heights). Before chatting with this Broadway legend, the boys reflect on moving to NYC exactly 10 years ago in June of 2016. Andréa, an iconic New Yorker herself, currently stars in the original musical A Walk on the Moon.
