New guests the Rigano Brothers (David and Paul) come on the pod to talk about their virtual show, plug their upcoming show, and Jon praises them for probably being one of the first composers to make original musicals to be produced virtually.The Riganos' Socials: @riganosongbookPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodThreads: @butasongoidTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical (SCT #31)!

2025/02/27

We close off Jon's Picks with a long and weird musical movie starring Rex Harrison, so naturally Jon picked bestie Colden to talk about this movie (which Jon assumed Colden has seen already). The two get into this movie as much as the props designer did with the Great Pink Sea Snail.Thank you to Gary Kochey for suggesting this one.Colden's Social -Instagram: @coldenlambWebsite: www.coldenlamb.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ColdenLambA Marc Blitzstein Archive YouTube:

Ep. 417 - The Lady Objects (1938) (w/ Sierra Rein)

2025/02/24

There is one specific reason why Jon picked Sierra to do this one and it's to make up for the last Jon's Picks episode that she was on! But the two also discuss this movie in length, or as much as they can because the film has a fast runtime.Sierra’s Instagram: @sierrareinMarquee Five: @marqueefivePodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: Doctor Dolittle (1967)!

Jon chose the opera boys of the podcast to talk about this not opera movie. The internet lied to Jon calling this a musical, but the trio still had some things to talk about.Film Rage Socials: @filmrageyySacred Lore of Witchcraft Linktree: https://lnk.bio/StorybookPodcastPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: The Lady Objects!

Life"s But A Song ·

2025/02/13

Valentine's Day is near, and Jon wanted to do this crazy movie. He enlisted SLee (in her first solo episode!) to talk about Kenneth Branagh's creation to a Shakespeare comedy that isn't that well known. But love is in the air in this crazy romp.SLee's Socials - @justcallmesleePodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: Pippin!

This is another movie that should be made into a musical episode. Jayson is back to groove to some cool disco tunes while Jon wants to go to a roller rink to get his skate on.

We did it - we did the musical versions of A Stars is Borns. Roland is back to heavily compare this one to the others (Jon does, too), but Roland watched the technically first remake with Janet Gaynor and has some interesting similarities to this remake.Roland's Instagram: @rolandrusinekHelluva Boss: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-uopgYBi65HwiiDR9Y23lomAkGr9mm-SPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter:
