    The Broadway One

    In this episode, we dive deep into the high-stakes, high-stress, and bizarre world of Broadway because Caroline's making her Broadway debut at Schmigadoon! We start by plotting how to get our own show up there — the one where we put mediocre performers next to virtuosos so audiences can really appreciate the difference. Tune in as we explore the tension between the "prestige" of the Great White Way and the gritty reality of being a working musician in the pits.  xoxoxo follow us on Instagram and YouTube  xoxoxo www.instagram.com/gageconomy www.instagram.com/martabagratuni www.instagram.com/caroline.e.cassio www.youtube.com/gageconomy xoxoxoxo

We talk improv group politics, we share a gag of the week, we read a write-in gag, we engage chatgpt's voice feature, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. If you didn't read that last bit like the King from "The King and I," you will explode in 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - ....phew, good job. You saved yourself by listening to the pod! Hooray!!!

    The Mom's On The Pod One

    Hello, podience. We have been DELINQUENT, and, yet DETERMINED to bring you another episode answering the paramount question - "was it a gig or was it...a gag?" Miss Caroline is in the process of finishing her soul contract with Radio City and Miss Marta has commited to humiliating herself for the rest of 2023 by learning a new skill. NEVERTHELESS, SHE and the other SHE PERSISTED. In this episode, we have Caroline's MOMMY on third mic as we recap Thanksgiving gigs, a gig with Sponk De Ban Tits, an epic ghost of gags past from MOMMY and a painful WRITE IN GAG! xoxoxooxoxoxoxo  P.S. stay till the end for some harrowing gag flavored tea.
