Everything Is Rent

The fans have spoken, and Beth and Sarah have answered several months later. The incredibly funny Lisa Gilroy (Fairview on Comedy Central, size 8 feet) joins Sarah and Beth to talk about Lin Manuel Miranda's film adaptation of Jonathan Larson's musical, Tick, Tick... Boom! Despite being obsessed with the musical OLIVER! as a kid, Lisa is NOT a musical theater fan and once had a very traumatic experience auditioning for a musical at her high school. Lisa describes watching TTB without any prior Jonathan Larson knowledge and being shocked to find out he died. Sarah beats Beth fair and square in a trivia game (trigger warning/spoiler alert: Beth incorrectly says that Sondheim wrote Falsettos. Don't freak out.). -- SHOW INFORMATION Instagram: @EverythingIsRent Twitter: @Everything_Rent Email: [email protected] Subscribe: Apple Podcasts| Subscribe: Spotify

Sarah and Beth measure (approximately) a year since their last episode with Lauren Ashley Smith and Mariah Smith (A Black Lady Sketch Show, Smith Sisters Live), who have both seen Rent upwards of 50 TIMES. They recap highlights from New York Theater Workshop's 25th Anniversary RENT Retrospective and prepare for a new investigative podcast to uncover why Jesse L. Martin wasn't part of it! Lauren and Mariah tell the story of their uncle (Jacques C. Smith) replacing Taye Diggs as Benny on Broadway and explain what supplies you need to camp out for theater tickets. Tune in for the Rent talk, stay for the National Forensics League digression. -- SHOW INFORMATION Instagram: @EverythingIsRent Twitter: @Everything_Rent Email: [email protected] Subscribe: Apple Podcasts| Subscribe: Spotify

Grab some WINE AND BEER (but only if you already have it at home), watch the Rent 2008 Broadway live recording on Youtube, and then listen to Sarah and Beth break it down with their hilarious friend and fellow Rent-lover, Caitlin Bitzegaio (We Stan Together). They discuss the newfound resonance of the musical, the applause problem plaguing New York theater and, guess what, it's the return of mid-2000s improv talk! Plus lots of talk about Head of the Class, The Good Fight, and Grey's Anatomy -- you'll never guess who's still alive and who's dead! -- SHOW INFORMATION Instagram: @EverythingIsRent Twitter: @Everything_Rent Email: [email protected] Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

Turn on your podcast player! Beth and Sarah have been in space for 6 months, but now they’re BACK with a special holiday episode featuring the hilarious and talented sensitive poet Matt Mayer (Monstro, Earth To Ned on Disney+). Listen to some vague memories of the 20th Anniversary Rent tour, which they saw on July 10th and play along by coming up with your own pun lyrics/song titles for an imaginary production of Rent set under the sea. Learn what it takes to become a wife of a podcast and get some inside info about who (or what???) Lin Manuel Miranda's wife is. Matt reveals which character is the "Rosetta Stone" of Rent, and Sarah and Beth visit some emails and DMs that have come in since their last episode in June. All of this brought to you by CBS All Access and NOT AMDA. -- SHOW INFORMATION Instagram: @EverythingIsRent Twitter: @Everything_Rent Email: [email protected] Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

A bunch of new and old guests (Corey Johnson, Santina Muha, Zeke Nicholson, Dan Black, Andrew Hansen, Jake Regal, Cedric Yarbrough, Kat Palardy, and Lauren Holt) join Beth, Sarah, and honorary co-host, Mark David Christenson as they re-listen to the entire 1996 Rent Original Broadway Cast Recording and revisit classic Rent topics like the lyric "think twice before you poo poo it" and how much rent is too much rent to pay in Silverlake. And that's the conclusion of Everything is Rent... for now! Thank you, Jonathan Larson. -- SHOW INFORMATION Instagram: @EverythingIsRent Twitter: @Everything_Rent Email: [email protected] Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify
