Summary

This week, Amanda Spears, Michael Schwartz, Casey Lee Clark, Dan Bayer & Zoe Rose Bryant are joining me for our main podcast review, "In The Heights," starring Anthony Ramos, Corey Hawkins, Leslie Grace & Melissa Barrera. Adapted from Lin Manuel-Miranda's Tony Award-winning Broadway hit by "Crazy Rich Asians" director Jon M. Chu, this movie musical is the perfect summer movie, filled with vibrancy, life, and joy! It's currently streaming on HBO Max, but we recommend going to see it in a theater if you can. What did we think of it, though? What did we think of the story? The performances? The musical numbers?
