From KCRW, I'm Kim Masters, and this is the business.

When Meredith Scardino pitched her musical comedy series Girls 5 Eva,

about an all but forgotten late 90s girl group that reunites in their 40s,

she made a fake CD case complete with cellophane rapper and discount stickers.

The title, World Domination.

But world domination with periods because it stands

for, we are outstanding living dolls dancing our music into, wait, today, it ends in with

today in our nation. Now a buzzy new show for Peacock Girls FiveEva is full of songs that might

stick in your head, not foreverock Girls FiveEva is full of songs that might stick in your head,

not forever, but FiveEva.

Scardino tells us about working in late night with Stephen Colbert, where she was often

the only woman in the room, to running her own show.

While production on Girls FiveEva didn't quite go as planned due to the pandemic,

Scardino tells us how she adapted the script,

including setting a performance in an abandoned mannequin warehouse.

Hey, she needed the bodies.

But first on the news banter, AT&T makes a discovery.

Stick around.

It's the business from KCRW.

I'm joined by my companion and banter, Matt Bellany.

Hello, Matt.

Hi there.
