Speaker 1: And that's what you really missed with Jenna.
Speaker 2: And Kevin An iHeartRadio podcast.
Speaker 1: Welcome to you, and That's what you really miss podcast.
Speaker 1: You and A. Here we are, Hello, Q and A.
Speaker 2: Hello, Q and A. We just can't get enough for
Speaker 2: doing this. We want to be closer to all of you. Yes,
Speaker 2: Q and A's hot takes everything.
Speaker 1: I think we just have to get started because there's
Speaker 1: a lot of really good questions here. Have you seen
Speaker 1: maybe happy Ending yet? No? No, we're just talking to Darren.
Speaker 1: We texted him because we want him on the pod
Speaker 1: again to talk about his show that he loves and
Speaker 1: believes in so much. Everybody loves it. It's got rave reviews.
Speaker 2: Everyone I know who's seen it says the exact same things,
Speaker 2: that it's just so wonderful. Everyone is so.
Speaker 1: Great, The story is beautiful, the music is beautiful. We
Speaker 1: got to get to New York to see it, but
Speaker 1: we have not seen it.
Speaker 2: Yes, do you think Barbara streis And would have been
Speaker 2: a guest on the show? I mean good question. I
Speaker 2: I mean Ryan and Barbara schreis And are friends now?
Speaker 2: Were they then?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I probably propelled the friendship if if
Speaker 1: they weren't before.
Speaker 2: Yes, I mean she would have been incredible. Are you
Speaker 2: kidding me? That would have been crazy.
Speaker 1: Leah would have been deceased, not well, unwell holding space
Speaker 1: for Ambers Ain't no Way version of A no Yes,
Speaker 1: all this ways I have to give always.
Speaker 2: Unbelievable, Like I think that is up there with Aretha Franklin's,
Speaker 2: like the best singer of all time. But so many
Speaker 2: people have different versions of Ain't Away.
Speaker 1: Ambers is top.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I know. I think hers is
Speaker 2: the best version. That's my hot take.
Speaker 1: WHOA the number of times I have to agree, the
Speaker 1: number of times we went and watched her on tour
Speaker 1: singing that song.
Speaker 2: I think her live version is the best version. I
Speaker 2: think it's better than the recorded version.
Speaker 1: Yes, oh it's so good. I get you to listen
Speaker 1: to it now.
Speaker 2: Okay, who's hooped up from the cast? Next question?
Speaker 1: Ever, Hi, Kevin and Jenna. I love the podcast. I
Speaker 1: would love to know if you would go back to Glee.
Speaker 1: You know yeah. I think the question would be if
Speaker 1: we could go back Sicklee the version that we did
Speaker 1: versus like a reboot. Yes, definitely, yeah, yeah, if you
Speaker 1: were able to go back and delete one episode of
Speaker 1: the series. Which one would you delete? Quarterback?
Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, for sure. Was Chris really the one hitting
Speaker 2: all the super deep notes in a few songs like
Speaker 2: we Want the Funk? Yeah? That was his voice. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 2: he has the range.
Speaker 1: He does have.
Speaker 2: Hes hottest Glee cast member. Yeah, I mean Bomer does he.
Speaker 1: Cant totally He's Yeah, he's top Boemer, Chyanne Chyanne, coord
Speaker 1: Cord Cord. I love that Cord is third in there. Objectively,
Speaker 1: he's hard objectively, but yes, but he's just like a brother.
Speaker 1: So it's hard for me to see, like any of
Speaker 1: you guys like that. It's just hard. I guess stars
Speaker 1: are easier, I think because I'm farther away.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1: Our series regular is only being paid based on the
Speaker 1: number of episodes they appear into.
Speaker 2: No, no, it's the number of episodes you have contractually
Speaker 2: agreed to. So usually if you see their name come
Speaker 2: up on the episode and they're not in it, they're
Speaker 2: still getting paid because they had signed on to do it.
Speaker 1: Like New New York my name popped up. I was like,
Speaker 1: that's interesting, and.
Speaker 2: You used to that paid?
Speaker 1: Well, I must have if my name was there, and
Speaker 1: I wasn't in it. Chi ching, chit ching. I think
Speaker 1: what happened was this shift happened. But my contract, they
Speaker 1: didn't know I was going to be leaving prior to that, correct,
Speaker 1: So I just got I think I got twenty two.
Speaker 2: That's terrible.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I actually don't know if that's true or out.
Speaker 1: But I do end up in an episode coming up.
Speaker 1: I come back more than you'd think. Yes, I come
Speaker 1: back to see performances. Yes, I'm around. What was the
Speaker 1: moment you realized I made it? Like example for going
Speaker 1: on Ellen, I don't know that was an example they gave.
Speaker 2: I know, we talk about it a lot, but it
Speaker 2: the weekend. Yeah it is, because that was I think
Speaker 2: there was a shift for all of us. It was
Speaker 2: over into the White House.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'm like, also, it was all within a
Speaker 2: six month period, to be honest. It was Oprah White
Speaker 2: House Tour, and it was just like, this is crazy.
Speaker 2: I think we did it. Like when you're in an
Speaker 2: arena and a different country, right and everyone knows your
Speaker 2: characters and are singing the versions of the songs. It's
Speaker 2: a very wild experience.
Speaker 3: Kiss Mary kill Bert, Sue will Bert, Sue will Mary Burton, yep,
Speaker 3: kiss will kill Sue? Yeah, I love you Jane, I
Speaker 3: love you Sue, Sue and kill.
Speaker 1: Come for us. If there was a Wicked episode, who
Speaker 1: would play any character in the school music already would
Speaker 1: be backed, Yes, definitely, and you could really play into
Speaker 1: that because him and Essa gets I think, yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1: And then there would be a duel and the storyline
Speaker 1: would be another defined gravity sing off between Mercedes and
Speaker 1: Rachel to play Alphaba.
Speaker 2: One gets Alphaba, one gets Glinda.
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know, because I think Santana could.
Speaker 2: Get you think Santana could be Glinda.
Speaker 1: Yes, I think I can do anything well obviously, yes,
Speaker 1: But I think Mercedes would play Alphaba and Rachel would
Speaker 1: play Glinda. Yeah, I don't know. I don't see Rachel
Speaker 1: Glinda and I don't. I don't know.
Speaker 2: That's hard. We don't really have a Glinda. You'd be
Speaker 2: most Glinda. No, I don't know about that in real life.
Speaker 1: Fine, did you guys love Smash the TV series? I
Speaker 1: feel like it's the closest thing we've had to Glee.
Speaker 2: We did watch a couple episodes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, in the beginning, right in the beginning, suss up
Speaker 1: the competition, we didn't really.
Speaker 2: Have time to watch TV because it was on at
Speaker 2: the same time, and the only thing that we watched
Speaker 2: was Game of Thrones.
Speaker 1: Look, I love I love Hilty and I love Karater McFee.
Speaker 1: I just like being on a musical TV show and
Speaker 1: watching a musical TV show during that time was not
Speaker 1: in the cards for me, right, Yeah, just vibe wise.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were already doing that all the time.
Speaker 1: Kevin, did you ever watch the show dubbed? No, you've
Speaker 1: never seen it dubbed. What is that like if you
Speaker 1: were in a different country and they dubbed the show
Speaker 1: we were dubbed in.
Speaker 2: Like forty Yes, I saw Glee in Brazil, so I
Speaker 2: saw it dubbed in Portuguese. Weird, very like we were
Speaker 2: straight up flipping through the channels and it was on.
Speaker 2: It was like, that is not my voice. It was
Speaker 2: very surreal, but also cool. Another moment of like we
Speaker 2: made it. I'mil you know when you feel so far
Speaker 2: from home, like and it's on the biggest channel network
Speaker 2: in Brazil, Like that's crazy. Who can Courd and Glenn
Speaker 2: come on? Yeah, we should get them on together. That
Speaker 2: would be great.
Speaker 1: Definitely, we can.
Speaker 2: Do a roommates off you and me versus them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just one of the general loves friends. Who's
Speaker 1: your favorite? It's Phoebe for me. This is like Sophe's
Speaker 1: choice for me. I go back and forth all the time.
Speaker 1: I think, sometimes I think Phoebe's the best character, like
Speaker 1: my favorite. Then sometimes I think Monica is my favorite,
Speaker 1: and sometimes Ross is my favorite, and sometimes they challenge. Wow,
Speaker 1: I really love them all. They all have their strengths. Yeah,
Speaker 1: how stressful was it to shoot an episode? Honestly, it
Speaker 1: sounds stressful and it's all like kaos, And we talk
Speaker 1: about that all the time, like how face it's going
Speaker 1: and how like things don't you know we don't have
Speaker 1: scripts or we have to learn or we have to record,
Speaker 1: but like it didn't feel stressful or we're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's not really in our hands. Like if I was
Speaker 1: a producer, I think it'd be way more stressful. But
Speaker 1: like for us, we're like, well, I just have to
Speaker 1: show up and do our job.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, show up and do the best you can.
Speaker 2: I think to worry about the schedule, the schedules out
Speaker 2: of your control, and like what you're doing is out
Speaker 2: of your control. You can just very much show up
Speaker 2: and do the best you can. Obviously, you wanted to
Speaker 2: like be working at a high level, right everybody was,
Speaker 2: and when you're going you know your characters so well,
Speaker 2: you know the system so well. You know, between recording
Speaker 2: and dance, rehearsal and fittings. It was just more tiring
Speaker 2: than stressful. Yes, what songs from Short and Sweet? Would
Speaker 2: each character sing? Oh my god, wow, I don't.
Speaker 1: Know it well enough. This is all you, Kevin.
Speaker 2: That's hard because honest, I would just want Santana to
Speaker 2: sing everything well right exactly. I would like to hear
Speaker 2: Mercedes do espresso.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's a good one.
Speaker 2: I think Santana, Slim Pickens, I think Rachel please please please?
Speaker 1: WHOA.
Speaker 2: I think I would like to hear Tina on Taste.
Speaker 1: What.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd like to hear that. I know it's not
Speaker 2: what you would go for normally.
Speaker 1: But I get it.
Speaker 2: Bed Kim would be an interesting one. I think, Oh,
Speaker 2: bed Kim's sexy number. Oh yeah, I would do a
Speaker 2: gay couple sex off Satana, Britney, Blane Kurt on bed Kim.
Speaker 2: That's all I got right now, but I would love that.
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, just one best pop vocal album
Speaker 2: at the Grammys. It deserved. It's an incredible It's a
Speaker 2: perfect pop album. It's very, very good.
Speaker 1: Have you listened to it, Jenna? From what I listened to? Yes, definitely,
Speaker 1: I put that on.
Speaker 2: It is so good.
Speaker 1: No, I know I need to I'm out of it
