Broadway composer Drew Gasparini, in association with the Broadway Podcast Network, has welcomed Rachel Zegler on this week's episode of NOW WE'RE TALKING with Drew Gasparini.

Listen to the episode below!


"Wow! Y'all, a movie star took the time to talk to me! Not just any movie star! A beautiful, young, charming new talent who caught the attention of Steven Spielberg who cast her as Maria in his upcoming adaption of West Side Story! Not only that, it's been announced that she will be in the highly anticipated sequel of the DC Comic movie, Shazam! It was a true pleasure having Rachel on the show. On today's episode she reminded me that we'd actually met before at the Broadway Flea Market when she was 14 years old! We talk about Rachel's experience working with Steven Spielberg and Stephen Sondheim, we start a rumor about her, we even play a game of MASH to determine each other's future. Not only that, we discuss the importance of being kind in this industry and I express my distaste for a certain celebrity's bad attitude. Lots of ground gets covered on this episode so TUNE THE HECK IN and turn it up! Rachel Zegler is in the house! Don't forget to rate, and make sure to subscribe because its FREE!!!"


Broadway composer Drew Gasparini has a lot of friends in show business. Sure, he knows what their resumes look like, and what their professional accolades are, but other than that, he doesn't know much about them. "NOW WE'RE TALKING with Drew Gasparini" is a new podcast where Drew tricks his most fabulous friends into having unscripted, unstructured, and slightly unhinged discussions about things you can't find about them on google.
