Boy Band Break

Our Nick Carter week continued with 2 "Who I Am" concerts in Niagara Falls, ON, Canada on October 4 & 5! Cinzia attended the 1st ever Listening Party (spoiler alert, it's fun and you should definitely do one if he has one in your city). Sofia attended the Saturday VIP (also a fun time with friends!) We both attended both concerts. Have you made it out to any of the "Who I Am" tour dates this leg?

Nick Carter is back for the 2nd North America leg of the "Who I Am" Tour. Sofia and Cinzia went to (and chat about) the Toronto show on September 30th, 2024

As we (kinda) patiently wait for AJ (Alex) McLean from the Backstreet Boys to release his first solo album in North America, we decided we would go back in time to review his very first solo album ever, "Have It All", that was released in 2010 in Japan. Did you know the album existed? Did you buy an import copy? What's your fave song?

We have some more Boy Band Updates! Chatting about Nick Carter's "Who I Am" tour including the fact that O-Town will be opening for some shows in California and Texas! New Kids on the Block Vegas Residency! Buffalo on The Masked Singer is a Boy Bander! And more! Non Boy Band related, Cinzia chats about her experience volunteering at the CCMA's in Edmonton and her interactions with Thomas Rhett!

We love sharing stories of concert reviews and events we have been to over the past 6 years of podcasting. However, there are a whole bunch of events prior to starting this podcast. Join us as we stroll down memory lane and remember some of them. Who was the first Boy Bander that you met? Or if you haven't met any yet, who would you love to meet?

Sofia and Cinzia went to the NKOTB Toronto shows! Did you see any of the shows this summer?

This week we watched the movie "The Idea Of You". In the movie, 40 year old Solene (Anne Hathaway) meets mid 20 year old Hayes Campbell (Nicholas Galitzine), one of the members of popular Boy Band August Moon at Coachella. They end up flirting and then secretly dating and then Solene ends up on tour with Hayes over the summer. We recap the movie and give our thoughts. Apologies that the sound quality of Cinzia's mic is off. Hope to have it fixed for next week. The Idea of You is currently available to watch on Amazon Prime. Have you seen it yet?

Today we're chatting about AJ McLean from the Backstreet Boys on the Name Drop podcast with *NSYNC's Chris Kirkpatrick and MTV's Brian McFayden. So sorry for thr sound quality on Cinzia's mic.
