• 18:00
  Speaker 1: one in the DC Universe, Professor of Psychology Jonathan Crane
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: is known by what alias Scarecrow?
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Question two? Who wrote the music and lyrics for the
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: musicals Godspell and Pippin Stephen Schwartz.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Question three, which pop Star received the most number one
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: debuts in Hot one hundred chart history with her sixth album,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: Positions that came out in twenty twenty. Ariana Grande and
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: which nineteen ninety five book by Gregory Maguire had its
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: lead character's name come from the initials of the name
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: of the author of the nineteen hundred book on which
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: it was based.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: The original story includes a scarecrow. The musical version includes
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz, and the movie stars
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: Ariana Grande. It is Wicked. Lead character is Alphaba, which
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: comes from L. Frank Baum LFB.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So the author of the book Wicked wanted to
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: do a little homage to L. Frank Baum and he's
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: just like, oh, how can I change this to be
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: the name of the Wicked Witch? And then he's like, okay,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: l LFB oh lb alphabet. That's what he did. He
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: would like that that was a very accurate readactment of
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: his thoughts. But David and I enjoyed the movie of
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: Wicked Part one and the casting of Cynthia Arrivo as
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Alphaba is amazing. She is incredible. If you have a
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: minute and you like just incredible singing, just YouTuber and
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: watch her sing at different performances because she is a powerhouse.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: She's amazing. The whole cast is good.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I like Drian and Grande's performance lot more than
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: I thought I would.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she does a great, pretty good job. Actually, they
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: both just became OSCAR nominated, and I think they both
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: deserve those nominations because obviously acting is hard, but I
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: mean the they're acting and they're singing and their everything
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: is incredible. So I'm glad they got the.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Nominations well deserved.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: And Stephen Schwartz, I think it's pretty impressive that he
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: does both the lyrics and the music, because a lot
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: of times it's a duo like EB and the other One,
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: Rogers and Hammerstein, Elton, John Lerner and Lowe, Rice and
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: n and Andrew Lloyd Webber. I don't think he wrote.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: I think Rice did a lot of his lyrics. I
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: like the music of Wicked, and so that he did
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: both the lyrics send the music I think is impressive.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: And he makes a cameo appearance in the movie when
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: they do that little what's your Name in the Emerald City?
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: You know that whole song when they get to the
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: Emerald City, and well, Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenowitz, who
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: were the original were the originals, so they they have
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: an extended cameo, righty because they see that whole song
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Stephen Schwartz at the end of all that goes the Lizard.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: We'll see it out that's him. Yeah, yay, that's everything
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: I know about Wicked. I actually haven't seen the musical.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: I've only heard it. I read the book years ago,
• 21:41
