šBeen listening since they started in peak-Covid-2020. Theyāre a powerhouse duo. If you like quick witted banter between friends + bicoastal elitism + legitimately interesting guests and interviews, this is for you.

š©øIf youāve been living under a rock, let me tell you. This is probably the best game released last year and itās only $3. My business partners would be horrified to learn how many hundreds of hours Iāve given to this game. After a long day on set, thereās nothing better than posting up horizontal for a few half hour runs through the Inlaid Library while you listen to the new Lana album.

š„Iām shocked whenever I hear that someone hasnāt watched the Monster Ball. Itās probably the best touring show ever produced. She toured it around the world for two years without stopping. Itās a perfect spectacle of camp, raw talent, and high budget theater. Most people go for the HBO Madison Square Garden filming but personally I prefer another version thatās free on YouTube. Philly, shot right after her five-night Madison Square Garden stint, is Gaga at her loosest. The wigs are unbrushed. The muscle relaxers are flowing. Thereās a branded Virgin Mobile part where she calls a fan on a flip phone. She calls herself a tranny and she fucks up some of her keytar solos, but itās impossible to look away. Itās a masterpiece of improvisation and Iāll take it over the squeaky clean HBO version anyday

šIām trying to bring theatre back to the city! Back in January Sam Rolfes and I directed a huge one-night-only musical show called Diskokina, and Iām currently developing the Club Cringe showcase for festivals. As a result, theatre is seeping into everything else Iām doing right now. Iāve been spending a bunch of time in the Theatre archives up on 64th st, where you can watch the cityās archive of musicals and plays dating back over 50 years - but the catch is you can only view each production once in your lifetime. Itās so depressing that the only shows we see talked about online is shit like Hamilton. Plays used to be such a big part of New Yorkās cultural export and it feels like itās kind of been handed off to the tourists. I think performers in general play it very safe and calculated these days, which is why Iām drawn to musicians who get up there and present a whole idea in their live shows. Frost Children and Club Eat come to mind immediately.Ā Itās vulnerable and cringe to get up on stage and start sharing things that used to be just in your notes app, to a whole room full of people. I guess thatās where the name Club Cringe comes from. Itās more about the risk of performing something big and high concept and being okay with potentially seeing it flop or be ill-recieved, ācoming off cringeā than it is about the work actually being intentionally cringey.
