el-baaz

The brilliantly cool Briana Phipps and the coolly brilliant Jacque Borowski talk Broadway. Like AfterBuzz TV; its hosts you like and feel you know passionately and expertly talking pop culture they know and love. They made Xanadu--the film and stage show--interesting to me . If that's not nerd cool, nothing is. Broadway Breakdown is worth your time.
