This week Eleni and Whitney are joined by their good friend Ben Massouras to chat about being a Theatre Kid, all the shows they saw on Broadway this past month, and seeing Ariana in the Eternal…
So I think before Ben comes on, we're going to go ahead and talk about dancing with the stars.
Honestly, there's really not that much to say.
Is there really?
All I have to say is
I did take notes on each thing.
Why did we get rid of dancing? Sorry.
Why did we get rid of So You Think You Can Dance if they're just going to make a really off-off-brand version of it?
Yes.
I was literally thinking this is giving So You Think You Can Dance, but without an audience and without like half of what it is.
That's what it was.
We
needed an audience, didn't we? Yes.
We needed an audience.
It was
giving like COVID times because there was no audience.
Yes.
It was kind of strange.
But it is what it is.
This is what the whole season will be.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Of course, Derek.
Oh, well, the judges are.
Well, it's the main judges there.
