Between 2 Butts: The Podcast That Lets Nothing Slip Between The Cracks

In this episode, Tice, Jay and Becca talk to performer-hair and makeup artist-cosplayer-writer Ahryel Tinker! She takes us back to her garage performances for friends and family, demonstrates her amazing Britney Spears impression, remembers how seeing "Chicago" changed her life, discusses dream roles and dream cosplays, and writing horror. We also have a running discussion in this episode about whether Jay and Ahryel are close enough in age to flirt without it being creepy. You be the judge. We round off the episode with Box of Lies, Stock Photo Edition, as requested from Ahryal and borrowed from The Tonight Show.

Between 2 Butts comes back from a sabbatical fully vaccinated, recharged, reinvigorated, and busting 245 lb. squats at the gym...although Becca has lingering doubts about her pre-"paused" J & J shot. Jay bestows Tice (aka "the Producer" aka "the Professor" aka "the Reston Virginia Treat" aka "the Master of Old-Timey" aka "Rover/Wanderer/Nomad/Vagabond/Call Him What You Will") with yet another moniker for his intro. You'll have to listen to find out what it is; rest assured, it's complicated.
This episode it's our pleasure to sit down with Leandra Lynn, managing director of Britches and Hose Theatre and host of the Rocky Horror Minute Podcast. We discuss Leandra's introduction to theatre (with its origins in Rocky Horror and tap-dance), her theater company, and her careers in shadow-casting, cosplay, and podcasting.
On the Rocky Horror Minute podcast, Leandra (and co-host Kelly Hanson) devote each episode to exactly one minute of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, but on our podcast, Leandra finds herself in a game where even a minute is too long, the Family Feud Fast Money round! Talk about a Time Warp! Will she and Becca amass the coveted 200 points? Will Jay and Tice determine exactly what they win if they succeed? Tune in and find out!

We have company again! Today we're graced with the presence of Kim Braswell, local actor and "Kitty-Paws" buddy to Becca (you'll have to listen to really understand that...). We begin the podcast talking about the genesis of their friendship and their memories of competitive karaoke, both of which involve a surprising amount of humping and dildoes! Then it's on to fretting over the latest cuts to the Taco Bell menu, and the wholesome Pornhub star who washes dishes. In both cases, Tice is the bearer of bad news, some of which is fake, which causes him great consternation. But as it's almost Halloween, we switch to spookier fare, and talk about what scared us when we were kids. Turns out for most of us of a certain age, "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" touched a nerve. (Although Tice, for the second episode in a row, brings up Garfield.) To close, we return to "Match Game", not even bothering this time with a lawyer-friendly alias. Stay tuned, to see if Goodson-Todman Enterprises hits us with a big fat *BLANK*!

In this episode, actor AnuRa Harrison joins Becca, Jay and Tice to tell us how to make the most of small roles in the theatre. AnuRa has demonstrated that fact in numerous productions, including "Julius Caesar", "Barnum", "Cabaret", "Sherlock!" and others. As we go,  AnuRa discusses the story of her name, remembers the creation of "Ushanka", talks about singing in a musical when you don't really have the best voice, reveals which production helped her get her sexy back, and during which production she conceived a child (although, as Jay points out, it didn't happen on stage). Stay to the end and you'll hear us play Who Would Win in a Fight?
