Retelling the News: MoWicked, Mo' Problems Artwork

In Each Retelling

The podcast where we explore how old tales are made new! Whether it's the fairytales we heard as children, the classic literature we read in high school, or the most ancient of mythologies, it seems creators can't help but keep putting their own spin on old stories, and we're going to tackle every flavor we can get our nerdy hands on.

Disney cast members are seeking to unionize! Spotify is screwing over the authors of audiobooks! Disney Adults and theatre kids alike were hit with surprise teasers this week! In another surprise case of there being a lot of news, we call to order the Congregation of the Wall Dwellers (Sam, Shami, and River) to discuss the good (solidarity forever, how much Moana and Wicked mean to various members of this podcast) and of course, the wicked (whitewashing, homewrecking, and Ryan Murphy).

The following podcast is for entertainment purposes only, the views and opinions expressed therein are solely those of the individuals speaking. Additionally, this podcast contains swearing, and discussions of infidelity, racism, and sexual content.
