This week we're so excited there's no empty chairs at our table as we sit down with Broadway's Chris McCarrell!

We pour out margaritas of sorts (margaritas with tequila and the vegetable juice Kevin brought) and discuss Chris's experience in LES MISERABLES on Broadway.

The group chats about British Megamusicals, the crazy Elphaba riffs out there (shout out to Christine Dwyer!), and we give a huge shout out to the amazing performances given by Broadway understudies!

Game Master Kimberly leads us in (an insanely hard) "Megamusical Quiz" and then Chris does a (very complicated) Broadwaysted Mad Libs with Lights of Broadway Show Cards. We have lots of laughs and juice with four sweet potatoes, so make sure to tune in and join us as Chris McCarrell!

Listen to the episode here:
