Prepare yourselves for an emotional episode. As much as Jon and Roland love this musical, they both cry at it because of the events of 9/11. This show is truly a light on a dark day in American history.Roland's Instagram: @rolandrusinekHelluva Boss: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-uopgYBi65HwiiDR9Y23lomAkGr9mm-SPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodThreads: @butasongpodNext episode: South Park: "Elementary School Musical"/"Broadway Bro

2025/09/08

Aaron's back with a new British musical! It's based off a memoir of mouth artist and motivational speaker Henry Fraser, and how life can change in an instant. Aaron and Jon break down the music (that to Aaron all sounds the same), while praising this show and Henry's art.

We head to the West End this episode to check in on the citizens of Arendelle and Disney's new favorite princess (even though one is technically a Queen) - Anna and Elsa. Cullen is back to talk about his experience seeing the show on Broadway and what they changed, as well as exploring the new lore the show added to the movie. And Jon got in touch with one of the swings from the Broadway and touring companies of Frozen, Alicia Albright, who tells us some behind the scenes stories and how some of

Life"s But A Song ·

2025/09/01

Oh boy. Jon really is torturing Kevin with his picks/suggestions. However, this one wasn't as terrible as the others - it has potential to be something if they were able to add extra oomph! But Sadie Sink and Kelvin Harrison Jr. are electric in this post apocalyptic fantasy YA story.Kevin's Link: https://linktr.ee/kevinwatchesmoviesPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: Frozen: The Hit

We head back to 1960s (via 1996) in this iconic film about a one hit wonder band that surprisingly has a lot of original songs in it.

Jon joins the forces of Aaron and Jay to talk about this hidden gem that is also very problematic. In the episode, they discuss the stage version's changes, tap dancing elevator, and how Carol Channing is the A plot.Beards and Sundries (kick ass) Website: https://beardsandsundries.com/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaf_PAqW-08AQuDRO8ocIF8wwYgQCaNOEnOLsJs-Nm5ASBJgDVT0nQl6LWmh6A_aem_fo66Huu5s0Ivb5kWPLSN4QAaron's Socials: @trueaaronchoiAaron's Twitch: @truechoistoryPodcast Socials -Email:

2025/08/11

Jon took a big swing with this pick - he's basing this off of How Did This Get Made. Joined with bestie Jayson, the two propose a stage version, go off on various tangents (unsurprisingly), and laugh their way through the episode.Jayson’s Instagram: @jaysonlkerrPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodThreads: @butasongpodNext episode: Thoroughly Modern Millie!

We kick off another month of Jon's Picks with a movie that we're all surprised hasn't been covered yet. Joined by bestie of the pod Arianna, Jon heads back to the Styne/Sondheim classic about a stage mom who may or may not have had some narcissistic tendencies, while everyone around her is trying to protect her in some way, shape, or form.Arianna’s Socials -Instagram/TikTok: @ladyaria_Website: www.ariannaarmon.comPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram:

2025/07/31

Welcome back to the early 2000s, where comedy was weird, people don't understand the geography of New York City, and the era of Michael Cera. Scott brings his When Scary Met Stabby co-host CB onto the pod for the first time, and they with Jon discuss how this should have been a musical.

Mary and Steven are back to talk more about Oklahoma! But this time it's the film version! They plus Jon have a very different read on the show because the movie felt very different - potentially because of the changes made...?

We head back in the world of Jim Henson this episode with Tyler, who is a David Bowie expert (which Jon forgot), to revisit Labyrinth.
