Gleekast
by Gleekast
Once upon a time two women with vocal chords and a love for glee decided to change the world, one 60 or so minute session a week at a time. Then Glee took a horrible turn and they were left sad and frustrated by the one time juggernaut, musical/comedy/drama/Golden Globe winning THING called glee. So they started discussing other things instead. Mostly musicals, but films with sweet dance moves also and even some that had fast cars. They kept the name though, because it was just easier that way.
