Love you all, great podcast but… I would replace that Limestone Pasta Bowl with the “I Never Liked You” banner.

We need a slow motion of Mateo’s face when he realizes Nicks hand was on his chair. 😂

You two are like when a toddler hands a damp cheese puff to the nearest adult, but instead of the toddler, Nick is the cheese puff

Krysta is clearly so seasoned at theatre. It sounds like she runs a tight ship and really leads by example, her work ethic goes offffff. I love the integrity to the craft.

As usual, this was an absolutely thoroughly amazing episode. I hope Matteo has been bitten by the bug. He is really made for Broadway. Nick would do well also, seriously ❤🎉 Bravo all.

On behalf of the Autistic community I thank Nick for formally stepping into the role of spokesperson. Keep speaking up about the horrors of visiting the supermarket and clothing that is tight around the neck and role-modelling the joy of same-foods. 💛♾️😂

Sitting across from Nick and Matteo makes Krysta look that much more amazingly beautiful.

Just bought my ticket to see y'all on the 11th! Matteo I'm so thrilled for you, and can't wait to see this chemistry live on stage
@yehudacavalli3927
July 4, 2026 at 2:29 am
Why Matteo’s legs are red-tanned and his face is not? Was that a makeup mismatch?
@lypsy5549
July 4, 2026 at 2:29 am
Not Nick sitting across from a legitimate Broadway star and somehow still managing to be the biggest diva in the room. 🤣

20:20 as an anti capitalist, I'm going to have to give you a slap on the tentacle for pitching insurance.

Happy Birthday Matteo sorry I forgot I'm sure you were really sad when I didn't wish you a happy birthday on your birthday. 😶😜

This was such a fun episode. Love the deep dives and honest love for each other's performances. And Nick's rapid fire and Chris laughing is always the best. I only wish I could go see it or watch clips online.
