Happy Christmas Eve to all, but especially our day-of-drop listeners! May this Twin Talk accompany our dear listeners during holiday travels, last minute present wrapping, or when you’re hiding in the bathroom during a tense family gathering. Awards season comes along with the most wonderful time of year, so listen in for a chat about films in the 2026 Oscars race. We cover Sentimental Value, Jacob Elordi, and even more Wicked: For Good discourse. Will Ariana clench a second consecutive nomination? Speaking of Ms. Grande, listen in as we break down her bestie Bowen Yang’s departure from Saturday Night Live. Then, just what you asked Santa for… a post mortem on The Queen of Versailles and Kristin Chenoweth. It’s tea, y’all. We wrap up this cozy little chat with thoughts on Marjorie Prime, the Titanique announcement, some Death Becomes Her and Maybe Happy Ending rumors, and our adoration for Heated Rivalry. Thank you for spending your holidays with us, as well as tuning in all year long. We love you all!

Dylan and Connor are joined by Drew Droege (Messy White Gays, Titanique). The twins are elated to be joined by this celebrated comedian, writer, and performer, who is currently starring in his off-Broadway play Messy White Gays. Get ready for a chat packed with behind-the-scenes tea, casting tidbits, playwriting secrets and inspirations, and MORE. Drew takes us through some career highlights, including his viral Chloë Sevigny impression, appearing in Luca Guadagnino’s film Queer, and the television series Heathers. We dive into his history with Titanique, and what it was like performing alongside Marla Mindelle, Constantine Rousouli, and Willam. We also talk about the hottest movies of the year, including Weapons (hello, Amy Madigan!), One Battle After Another, Sentimental Value, The Secret Agent, and more. There’s piping hot takes that you do not want to miss about the Supporting Actress field, y’all! We also get into Heated Rivalry, Jean Smart, and queer culture at large. Need we say more? We love Drew and Messy White Gays! The play, that is. Of course.

Dylan and Connor are joined by Hannah Cruz (Chess, Suffs). Game. Set. Match… made in heaven y’all! We are in love with Hannah, who’s currently starring as Svetlana in the highly-anticipated revival of Chess on Broadway. Ahead of the crazy holiday schedule, we caught up with Hannah on her Chess journey - from her early love of the show to her audition, rehearsals, and opening on Broadway. Prepare to be riveted by her incredible pre-show process, the antics that occur on and backstage, and what it’s like working with Lea Michele, Nicholas Christopher, and Aaron Tveit. We get into Gleek days, being a teenage Mama Rose, and how she met her husband on the road. Speaking of, Hannah is a legendary Eliza in Hamilton. She shares stories from the tour, including why it changed her relationship with singing forever. We get into the Gussie of it all… that’s right, Hannah is currently filming Richard Linklater’s Merrily We Roll Along alongside Paul Mescal, Ben Platt, and Beanie Feldstein. Exclusive stories are told about what the next 15 years have in store for this diva. We talk Suffs, Die My Love, The Wedding Singer, and more. You’re going to know her so well. J’adore!
