00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,200

00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:21,880

76
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 5: All the above.

77
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: Now, tell us why you are such a fan of Lynn.

78
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 6: You know, I mean I grew up as a theater kid, right,

79
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 6: and I just love how he's been able to really

80
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 6: like change the theater industry with everything from in the

81
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 6: Heights to Hamilton and then you know, even going beyond

82
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 6: that into Hollywood and kind of showing that there's a

83
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 6: place for Latinos in these different spaces that.

84
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 5: We don't always necessarily to see ourselves in. And you know, like.

85
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 4: Hearing this music that he's written that really like celebrates

86
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 4: Latino culture and identity, it's just like so inspiring and

87
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 4: it makes you feel seen. And that's why I really

88
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 4: enjoyed all his music and the projects that he's come

89
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 4: up with, you know, because he combines a little bit

90
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 4: of everything. You know, he's got the Broadway roots, but

91
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 4: then he's got the hip hop and then he's got

92
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 4: you know, the Latin fusion, and you know, it's just

93
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 4: things that I feel like we don't always get to

94
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 4: see and he's like representing us and I just love that.

95
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 2: Now, did you ever were you ever in theater?

96
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 4: No? Just in high school and college, like middle school,

97
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 4: high school, college.

98
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 5: I did a lot of college.

99
00:04:58,560 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, yeah.

100
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 4: I actually started out as a theater major. Before I

101
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 4: was like, I need a full time job, so then

102
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 4: I journalism. But that's what I got me into entertainment

103
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 4: journalism was that love of like theater and entertainment and

104
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 4: movies and television and being like, how can I kind.

105
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 5: Of perform in a way still but make a career.

106
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 4: I have a little bit more of a stable career,

107
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 4: you know, And so that's how I got into entertainment journalism.

108
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 3: Now, as a journalist, you get to cover a lot

109
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 3: of amazing actors, producers, directors, writers. What we have found

110
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,280
Speaker 3: so interesting about our journey with Lynn is that he

111
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 3: kind of touches all of those, right, He's like very.

112
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: Close to being a freaking peagot.

113
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 3: So, with your experience in entertainment journalism, is there anybody

114
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 3: like Lynn out there?

115
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: Or is he truly like one oak?

116
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, well, how dare you Lilyana that it's

117
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 2: too much, that's too much for it to handle right now?

118
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 4: You know, I definitely think that there's people out there

119
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 4: that are in the same kind of like crew like

120
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 4: that are building towards that I think of, like someone

121
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,159
Speaker 4: like Lauria Caldron Kellett who writes and show runs and

122
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 4: you know, I interviewed her and acts. I interviewed her

123
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 4: a couple of a couple of years ago, and she

124
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 4: kind of talked about how she first started creating her

125
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 4: own projects because she wanted to be seen and wanted

126
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 4: to be in them, and I was like that.

127
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 5: I love that.

128
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 4: You know, like we don't get to represent, we don't

129
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 4: get to be represented all the time, so you know,

130
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 4: we'd write it.

131
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 5: For ourselves right and put ourselves in it.

132
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 4: So definitely someone like her comes to mind, someone like

133
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 4: Michael R.

134
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 5: Jackson Polletzer Winner.

135
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 4: Creating a story that represents queer black men, and I

136
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,559
Speaker 4: just I love seeing people who are who are trying

137
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 4: to break boundaries and and show us in ways, you know,

138
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 4: people in ways that we haven't been necessarily seen before.

139
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 4: So that's another person that I think of that's that's

140
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 4: killing the game.

141
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: I love that.

142
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 5: I love seeing that.

143
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 3: You know, it feels like Lynn has just this incredible

144
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 3: mass appeal children. Grandma's me Joseph of like black, white, brown, green, purple,

145
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 3: it does not matter like, I'd rarely come across somebody

146
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 3: that does not have something incredible to say about Lynn

147
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 3: or Lynn's work. Why do you think his work has

148
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 3: had the success that it has, Because here's the thing.

149
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 3: If you had pitched me a musical about Alexander Hamilton

150
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 3: that was wrapped, I would have been like, no, thank you, bye,

151
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 3: no ooh no.

152
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: But then you see it through Lynn's lens, through his pen,

153
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 1: through his genius, and all of a sudden, it is

154
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: everything that is in like the cultural lexicon, Like how

155
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: does that happen for somebody? Like what did he do?

156
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: How did he make magic? With Hamilton?

157
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 4: You know? I think there's so many different levels to

158
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 4: what needs to come together to create that magic. I

159
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 4: think some of it is, you know, if you've spent

160
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 4: like seven years writing that and like you can see

161
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 4: every little easter egg and detail, And that's something that

162
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 4: I really love, is like seeing those little easter eggs

163
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 4: and his music of like oh this is a reference

164
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 4: to like you know and a Chantiago rule kind of

165
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 4: kind of song, or like this is a reference to

166
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 4: this like specific hip hop you know artist, And I

167
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 4: think stuff like that makes it accessible to people that

168
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 4: never felt seen in those spaces Like I mean, I've

169
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 4: watched Hamilton.

170
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 5: I can't teall you how many times.

171
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 4: I'm Disney Plus and my husband watches it with him

172
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 4: because he's a hip hop fan and he connects to that,

173
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 4: and so he's like, oh, that far goes hard, you know,

174
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:46,439
Speaker 4: and he's like surprised. But like, how like just how

175
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 4: much it connects to to even someone that maybe wouldn't

176
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 4: even necessarily be a huge fan of musicals, you know,

177
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 4: it makes it really accessible. Then on top of that,

178
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 4: you're you're bringing in people into like the production like Hamilton,

179
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 4: having literally like so many different types of people, different

180
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 4: genders and races, coming together to show the story that's,

181
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 4: you know, typically been about like very white men. That

182
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 4: to me is mind blowing and just shows how how

183
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 4: you can kind of find yourself in these in these people.

184
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 4: You know, like I might maybe have never connected to

185
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 4: Alexander Hamilton, but then watching this production right where you're

186
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 4: seeing people that look.

187
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 5: Like you on this show, it makes you think that

188
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 5: could be me.

189
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 4: Like I could be a person making these changes and

190
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 4: stuff like that. Really, I think just shows how like

191
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 4: representation can really influence people to make big changes in

192
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 4: the world. Just from seeing someone else do it.

193
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 3: I love that you said that, because you're setting us

194
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 3: up perfectly for the Little Mermaids.

195
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 2: So, Joseph, how in the dare I'm not ready? I

196
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 2: just got the goosebumps when you said that. What yes, Joseph.

197
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 3: So you know, obviously when we think of Lynn, we

198
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 3: think of In the Heights, We of course think of Hamilton.

199
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 3: But let's take it current, right, because we just got

200
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 3: hit with The Little Mermaid, the live action film. People

201
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 3: have been waiting for this. Lynn posted such a cute

202
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 3: Instagram story where he actually showed his VHS Little Mermaid

203
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 3: cassette that he saved up to buy like in nineteen

204
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 3: ninety when the film came out, and he was like,

205
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,680
Speaker 3: I remember buying this as a little kid, like walking

206
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 3: to the video store in like two hundred and second

207
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,119
Speaker 3: Street and he opens it and it gave me goosebumps

208
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 3: because it's such a full circle moment. Right, It's like

209
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 3: you said, like, you work really hard seven years, like

210
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 3: he was a substitute teacher when like In the Heights

211
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 3: hit like and he's opening this VHS tape, which, by

212
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,680
Speaker 3: the way, you guys, do you still have VHS tage?

213
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 5: Yes? I do. I don't, well, I don't know.

214
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,320
Speaker 1: What kind of VHS tapes you've got hiding in there.

215
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 2: The ones I have at my house made it all

216
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 2: the way to New York, but the other Disney ones,

217
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 2: they say it at my mom.

218
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 3: So let's talk about The Little Mermaid because he plays

219
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 3: such a huge role in this film, obviously not on

220
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 3: screen but behind the scenes, writing the music. And one

221
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 3: of the things that he was asked about was obviously

222
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 3: the controversy surrounding Ariel, right, and it being Chloe Joseph,

223
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 3: you saw the film, what were your impressions of it?

224
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: And also Kristin have you seen the movie?

225
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,079
Speaker 5: I have, absolutely, So.

226
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 2: I'm going to go back to lin Manuel in general

227
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 2: and then we'll go back to Ariel. But it's like,

228
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 2: you know, what Lynn did for Hamilton is bringing in

229
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 2: a different side of inclusivity where you're just kind of

230
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 2: like listen rappers listen to words like they're telling you

231
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 2: a story, right, And so he was able to get

232
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 2: a different group of people to listen educate themselves with

233
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 2: different sound. So now Ariel being a person of color,

234
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 2: when I went to go see The Little Mermaid, I

235
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,959
Speaker 2: saw a mermaid, is what I will say so because

236
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 2: I've been I know Lynn's type of stuff. Now, so

237
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 2: what did you think about the movie since you thought

238
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 2: what did you feel when you first the opening scene?

239
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 5: I thought it was incredible.

240
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 4: I think it's just watching things like that is a

241
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 4: testament to me of it doesn't matter if you are

242
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 4: the exact background of that person, but just to see

243
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 4: another person of color in that space, like it felt

244
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 4: really magical to me.

245
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 5: And it made me feel like.

246
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 4: You know, even as an adult, like I could be

247
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 4: a little Morman, you know, like I could be whatever

248
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 4: that is. Like, I just think that there's like this

249
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 4: real power in seeing things like that, because I feel

250
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 4: like there's so many times where you watch them things

251
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 4: and you just think, well, I can't do that, and

252
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,079
Speaker 4: then subconsciously it's because, oh it's because I've only ever

253
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,079
Speaker 4: seen a white person in that role. And I do

254
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 4: feel that like when I see something like that, when

255
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 4: I see something like you know, even like six on Broadway,

256
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 4: I think, oh my gosh, I.

257
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 5: Can do that. I've been see there's been so many

258
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 5: productions recently of.

259
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 4: Legally Blonde that have been done that have black women

260
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 4: as the role of Elle Woods, and I'm like it

261
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 4: just it makes me feel like like tingles inside, you know,

262
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 4: to just be like a wait, could you imagine that?

263
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,199
Speaker 5: Then I think it takes it to another another.

264
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 4: Level of like, well I could be a part of

265
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:10,679
Speaker 4: making something like that happen, or I could you know,

266
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 4: you could be a lawyer or something. You know, and

267
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,560
Speaker 4: like see yourself in spaces maybe that on television or

268
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 4: movies you don't always necessarily see yourself in, but like

269
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 4: those people exist doing those jobs in real life.

270
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 3: I think that's the brilliance and the magic of him.

271
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 3: You know, he just removes all of these barriers that

272
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 3: really don't impact the impact of the character or the

273
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 3: experience of seeing a film or watching a movie. He

274
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 3: just strips all of that away and just gets right

275
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 3: down to the core of like who is this person

276
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 3: as a human?

277
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 1: Right, And that's how we connect to characters.

278
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 3: That we see in films, in television, in books, whatever

279
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 3: that is. Like think about it when you read a book,

280
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 3: like I don't usually assign a race, right, like I'm

281
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 3: having an it's a character.

282
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're developing the character exactly.

283
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 3: And I think that's just what's amazing about him is

284
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 3: his ability to do that all the time, Like he

285
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 3: did that with in Gunhal right, like that was the

286
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 3: first time like I felt seen in a Disney movie

287
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 3: Joseph too.

288
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,080
Speaker 1: Right, he did it with Hamilton.

289
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 3: He's doing it with the Little Mermaid and it's not

290
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 3: like he's just doing it and it's like, eh, it

291
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 3: was cool, it was okay. It's like he's doing it

292
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 3: at the highest level, like the big like Disney, like Global,

293
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 3: Like this man just crushes And I think you know,

294
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 3: he doesn't just do films and television, he also does

295
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 3: like documentaries. He brings so much attention to like causes,

296
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 3: like as somebody who's Puerto Rican, like Chris and I

297
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 3: know you're Puerto Rican as well. Like that what he's

298
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 3: done for like our Island is incredible. Like aside from

299
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 3: like Bad Bunny, nobody's brought that level of attention to

300
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 3: Puerto Rico.

301
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: Like Hamilton's going back to Puerto Rico this summer. Like

302
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: he doesn't stop. It's not like he's showing up when something.

303
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 3: Bad happens and then he's like all right, peace, got

304
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 3: my photo, op, I'm out. Like at the core, like

305
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 3: Puerto Rico's his soul, it's his identity, it's his heritage,

306
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 3: and like, I love the attention that he brought, love

307
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 3: that he took the like Hamilton there. I love that

308
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 3: he was influential on bringing Jimmy Fallon and The Tonight

309
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 3: Show to Puerto Rico.

310
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 1: Like he doesn't stop. And I think that's what's so amazing.

311
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 3: He just constantly gives back to his community around him.

312
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 3: And aside from almost being a pegot, which he's gonna

313
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 3: get it, Like, let's be clear, he's gonna get it.

314
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 3: He's just he's amazing. So we want to have a

315
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 3: little fun with you, right, We want to do just

316
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 3: a little game, okay, because Lynn is known like you said,

317
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 3: or your husband said, he wouldn't be your husband say

318
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 3: about his bars.

319
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 5: Oh he got fire bars?

320
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: Okay, So we know that Lynn has firebars, so we

321
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: want to test your prowess when it comes to his firebars.

322
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 3: So I have a feeling you know a lot of rap.

323
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 3: We are going to test your skills. We're going to

324
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 3: give you a lin Manuel lyric and a rap and

325
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 3: I want you to tell me which is which. So

326
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 3: is it rap realness or is this a lin Manuel lyric?

327
00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,200

396
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: That's gonna be my homework, thank you.

397
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,199
Speaker 2: I have never thought of that.

398
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:35,159

00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 5: And like the opening of on repeat over and over.

406
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 5: I like do performances in my living room.

409
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,439
Speaker 3: I'm just going to put this out there because you know,

410
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 3: Lynn sent you that note. So, Lynn, if you're listening,

411
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 3: we would love to know what are your top three

412
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,120
Speaker 3: projects of all time? And also, Joseph, do you want

413
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,120
Speaker 3: to jump in on this. I already know what you're

414
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 3: going to say, and Ganto's is number one. Let's just

415
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 3: end it right there.

416
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,679
Speaker 2: Oh my god. Okay, but you know what in me

417
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 2: researching Lynn, remember when we first were talking about Lynne,

418
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 2: I was like, I don't know. Okay, first of all,

419
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 2: I didn't even fucking know. I was obsessed with Lynn.

420
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 2: So I'm going to go it would be in the Heights,

421
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:47,399
Speaker 2: Mowana in Heights the movie, but in Ganto is just

422
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 2: my I have never loved a Disney movie like I

423
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:50,879
Speaker 2: like that one.

424
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: I love it.

425
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,400
Speaker 2: You what is yours?

426
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 1: Well?

427
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 2: But It's also kind of not fair because have you

428
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 2: seen The Little Mermaid justin yet?

429
00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 3: So The Little Mermaid cannot be on my list because

430
00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 3: I had not seen it.

431
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 1: But I also have a two year old.

432
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 3: So I'm going to say for me, number three would

433
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 3: be In the Heights the musical, just because I'm so

434
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 3: connected to that story. I'm also so connected to like Rent,

435
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 3: you know, like I go so hard for Rent from

436
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 3: the rest of my life. So In the Heights was

437
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,159
Speaker 3: kind of like the bridge that I needed, and I

438
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 3: was like missing that element from my life. So In

439
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,639
Speaker 3: the Heights is just so impactful for me as like

440
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 3: a young woman who's I don't know, like it was

441
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:31,200
Speaker 3: going through like discovery.

442
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 1: I just really loved In the Heights.

443
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 3: I just love it so much and connected me to

444
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,200
Speaker 3: my culture in a way that like I had never

445
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 3: seen on the Broadway stage.

446
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 1: I didn't know we could do that. So In the Heights.

447
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 3: I'm going to say Mowana too because it is now

448
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 3: on repeat all the time because I have a child

449
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 3: and it's brilliant. And then I'm going to have to

450
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 3: say Hamilton, I mean, I don't again like you would

451
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 3: have told me fifteen years ago, that I would know

452
00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 3: like ninety percent of the lyrics to the Federalist.

453
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: Papers, Hamilton's biography what, and I would know facts about

454
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 1: American history. No, yeah, so Hamilton. So there we go.

455
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 1: We share number one, Kristen.

456
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 3: But I think for everybody listening, everyone has their own

457
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 3: experience with it.

458
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: But before we let you go, I do want to

459
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 1: know what do you.

460
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,919
Speaker 3: Think the future holds for mister Miranda, Like, what do

461
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 3: you want to see from him?

462
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 5: I mean, I want another Broadway musical, that's for sure.

463
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: Well, you got one New York, New York, that's.

464
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 4: True, But I want like another like full original, you know,

465
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 4: like where he's putting everything out in there. I just

466
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 4: think that it's so important the way that he's like

467
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 4: telling such authentic stories about like our experiences and like

468
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 4: owning those narratives and just like really showing how like

469
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,919
Speaker 4: opening like people's eyes to the possibilities for themselves that

470
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 4: are so limitless.

471
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,280
