August 23, 2018 14:07 - 37 minutes - 34.5 MBHappy Thursday everyone! Now that school has started and you have all sorts of time (yeah right), why don’t you head over to your favorite retailer and buy my book Why I Hate Green Beans! The digital format is only $2.99.

Some Guy in Austin and I break down not one, not two but THREE Bachelor in Paradise episodes. That’s six hours of abs, crabs, glitter bombs, and a great discussion about how the Goose is a total chach. Fair warning, we recorded this in the middle of the night and I giggle when I’m tired. I also snort laugh once or twice. Cheers to my lovely display of femininity. EPISODE NOTES: Do you think this is why Crazy Eddie C...
IHGB #64 -- Bachelorette Becca Finale
August 08, 2018 08:00 - 42 minutes - 39 MBWe made it to the finale! Can you believe it? It seems like yesterday we were shaking our fists at Arie for dumping Becca on national television. Yet here she is, no longer on a journey to find love. Some Guy in Austin and I break down the episode, talk about road trip food for some reason, and gear up for watching nine thousand hours of Bachelor in Paradise. Join us, won't you? EPISODE NOTES: Did you hear that Arie visited Becca in the Maldives? They've mentioned him every other episode, wh...
IHGB #63 -- Bachelorette Becca Men Tell All
August 01, 2018 03:23 - 40 minutes - 37.3 MBHappy Wednesday everyone! It’s the Men Tell All episode on The Bachelorette and the men tell it all while wearing brightly colored jackets and pedal pushers. Some Guy in Austin and I discuss our dislike for the cropped pant trend first, then we take a sharp left turn tangent on another topic and I laugh harder than I have in a long time. We also discuss all things Bachelor in Paradise and have a serious conversation about Jade and Tanner and Carly and Evan bringing their children to the isl...
IHGB #62 -- Bachelorette Becca Fantasy Suites
July 25, 2018 15:00 - 31 minutes - 29.2 MBHappy Wednesday everyone! It’s a very important week for Bachelorette Becca. We’ve reached the forgo card dates and Becca has to make big time decisions, like who will sleep in the yurt? Who will she make cross the threshold? Who will have to eat crickets? Clearly, we have a lot to discuss A quick warning for those of you who may have small ears listening along with you. Although this is a family show, it is fantasy suite week. On The Bachelorette. Please know that Some Guy in Austin and I...
IHGB #61 -- Bachelorette Becca Hometown Dates
July 18, 2018 14:22 - 42 minutes - 38.5 MBHappy Wednesday everyone! Bachelorette Becca is off to join the remaining four guys on the infamous hometown dates. All seem relatively normal, which is a bummer, but never fear. Some Guy in Austin and I discuss our favorite wackado family members of the past. And because this is the most dramatic season ever, we argue about who goes home next week and who will be the last man standing. We even have a weigh-in from Mama. She likes the “shiny mobster boy.” That's Jason. EPISODE NOTES: Do ...
IHGB #60 -- Bachelorette Becca Week 7
July 11, 2018 15:08 - 44 minutes - 40.8 MBWeek 7 in Becca’s journey to find love takes us to the Bahamas. Some Guy in Austin and I discuss all sorts of factoids about these little islands. We make a bet that involves romphims. I giggle for way too long about the Dierks Bentley song “I Hold On.” We even manage to talk about four somewhat stable dates and who we think Becca will ditch next week after hometowns. And in with tradition of us forgetting things, we manage to totally botch the location of these hometown dates. For example, w...
IHGB #59 -- Bachelorette Becca Week 6
July 04, 2018 14:30 - 42 minutes - 38.9 MBHappy 4th of July everyone! It’s week 6 and Becca’s journey to find love has hit a few rough spots. HOWEVER, she takes care of both of them by the end because she’s ready for "Let’s do the damn thing"to be in the past tense. Some Guy in Austin and I talk Edgar Alan Poe, the correct size of a pocket square, and when it’s appropriate to call a woman “hot.” Also, we both say the phrase "blah, blah, blah" for some reason and I snort laugh the entire last minute of the show. Sorry! Finally Some Gu...
IHGB #58 -- Bachelorette Becca Week 5 and New BIP Cast

June 20, 2018 21:02 - 44 minutes - 40.6 MBThis episode was PACKED. Some Guy in Austin and I waste no time discussing all sorts of things like the Brawny man, fried foods, Lincoln's lack of coordination, and Ashley I-Lashes engagement! Check out the show notes below! SIMPLE DISCLAIMER The following information you are about to hear is of personal opinion. However, if you or someone you Snap happen to personally know, sort of know, is friends with the Starbucks barista who’s obsessed with The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and looks exactly lik...
IHGB #56 -- Bachelorette Becca Week 3
June 13, 2018 15:03 - 50 minutes - 45.9 MBWell it’s week 3 and Becca’s journey to find love has hit a bit of a rough patch. First, Colton and Tia are miraculously in the same room. (How did that happen?) Plus we have not one but TWO ambulances in a single episode. But there are silver linings: Richard Marx is back with an old favorite and a new face. And Our Host looks dapper delivering bad news in a fabulous navy shirt. Hey Harrison, wherever you go, whatever you do, I will be right here waiting for you. You can count on it. SIMPLE ...
IHGB #55 -- Bachelorette Becca Week 2
June 07, 2018 13:01 - 37 minutes - 34.3 MBBefore you listen to the show, I wanted to give you a head’s up on a few things: This episode is all over the map. Some Guy in Austin and I were both traveling, which is an entire ordeal by itself. We had to watch the show LIVE, heaven forbid. But this week is also the perfect storm for me. My second book is due, my roommate Lara and I are packing up to move across the neighborhood, there's a devil bird that won't stop chirping out my window, and I had this weird throat thing when I recorded...
IHGB #54 -- Bachelorette Becca Week 1
May 30, 2018 16:09 - 56 minutes - 51.9 MBSeason 14 of The Bachelorette officially premiered and there’s already a ton of drama surrounding some of the contestants. Most notably, front-runner Garrett. Some Guy in Austin and I recorded this episode before we heard about his social media history. Our favorable comments are a direct result of what we saw the night of the show. It’s clear that this is probably going to be the most dramatic season in franchise history. And I just hate that for Becca. SIMPLE DISCLAIMER The following infor...
IHGB #53 -- Meet Bachelorette Becca's Guys
May 24, 2018 13:50 - 51 minutes - 47.1 MBI’m thrilled to bring you the episode you’ve been waiting on for months now…Bachelorette Becca has a list of suitors! When we last saw Bachelorette Becca, she was nursing some pretty serious wounds after her appearance on After the Final Rose. Arie proposed. Then he took it back with a harsh PSYCHE! So the producers over at ABC said, “Let’s make this girl the next bachelorette and get her hitched!” ABC rounded up some models, professional athletes, and a chicken to help Becca on her journey t...
IHGB #52 -- Harry and Meghan
May 17, 2018 14:58 - 38 minutes - 35.5 MBWe are just days away from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding any my roommate Lara and I couldn’t be more excited. And it’s not just because we watched the Lifetime Original biopic full of interesting and accurate facts about the happy couple. It was sooooo horrible in suuuuuch a good way. No, I am excited to get up early, drink tea and eat crumpets while wearing a fascinator on my head, knowing that one day, a commoner like me could marry into royalty too. Would I have to wear panty ho...
IHGB #51 -- Avengers: Infinity War
May 10, 2018 15:34 - 35 minutes - 32.9 MBMy friend and Marvel maven Jolie joins me on the IHGB podcast 51 to discuss all things Avengers: Infinity War and we have a ball geeking out over our favorite superheroes all squished into one movie. Warning: THERE WILL BE SPOILERS! DO NOT LISTEN IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW SPECIFIC DETAILS ABOUT THE MOVIE, INCLUDING THE ENDING! EPISODE NOTES: Here are a few links to help you remember why I love a superhero so much: The first Guardians of the Galaxy movie review The second Guardians of the...
IHGB #50 -- Q&A with Mama
May 03, 2018 15:08 - 33 minutes - 30.8 MBWell, it’s finally happened. It took almost a year, but I finally got Mama to sit down for a chat. The purpose was to answer some of the listeners or readers’ questions. The result was a long, oh so long interview because the woman could have a sparkling conversation with a brick wall and have a ball doing it. Things to note: Mama talks with her hands, so you’ll hear hear accidentally hitting the microphone every once in a while. You’ll hear Daddy watching TV in the background if you listen h...
IHGB #49 -- Love Triangles
April 26, 2018 09:00 - 43 minutes - 39.4 MBToday’s episode is one that many of you have requested: LOVE TRIANGLES! I wrangled my roommate Lara into helping me out with this one and since we were so controversial in our romance movie podcast, I have no doubt y’all will have thoughts on these particular trios. Fair warning: THERE WILL BE SPOILERS. We discuss the qualities that make a compelling trio, famous love triangles in pop culture, and we have a healthy conversation debating vampires verses werewolves. If I’ve said it once, I’...
IHGB #48 -- Duets
April 19, 2018 09:00 - 42 minutes - 38.7 MBSome Guy in Austin is back! And we are excited to share our favorite duets. Note: A duet is different from a duo. We explain this in the opening of the show. The Judds? Duo. "That Boy is Mine" by Brandy and Monica? Duet. See the difference? I think I should also point out that my duets are way better than SGIA's. It's my opinion, but it's true. EPISODE NOTES: "Say, Say, Say" "Next Time I Fall In Love" "We're Going to Hold On" "Jackson" "After the Fire is Gone" "Endless Love" Tangent...
IHGB #47 -- Cinderella Stories
April 12, 2018 10:00 - 38 minutes - 34.9 MBIf you take the time to really think about it, Cinderella stories are all around us. My friend Stephanie has a version that she ADORES. I have a feeling some of you are going to be incredibly disappointed that I have neither seen nor heard of it. But I'm going to remedy that soon. EPISODE NOTES: Stephanie's first Cinderella experience: Rodgers and Hammerstein My first Cinderella experience: Disney's Cinderella The wonder that is Brandy's version. HELLO WHITNEY! Tangent: Empire Records ...
IHGB #46 -- Dancing in Movies
April 05, 2018 15:05 - 47 minutes - 43.5 MBI understand that this podcast title may be confusing. Let me explain: When listener Kara suggested this topic, I was validated because I’ve been circling it for a while. However I didn’t just want to do dance movies because most of my favorite dance movies are musicals. And I already did a podcast on musicals. (It was wonderful, by the way. You should listen!) But in Kara’s email to me, she phrased her suggestion as “dance scenes in movies.” It all clicked. I sashayed over to my phone, ca...
IHGB #45 -- Rising Stars
March 29, 2018 10:00 - 39 minutes - 36.6 MBIn this episode of the I Hate Green Beans Podcast, I’m back with my roommate Lara discussing a fun topic. With the onset of Easter, we decided to share our rising stars with listeners. We talk about musicians and actors, but we also talk about iPhones, royal events, and craft beer. Basically we talk about what has risen — just like Jesus. EPISODE NOTES: Lara and I discuss the new TV show Rise and how the theater department is debuting Spring Awakening. Although the show is more of a putter...
IHGB #44 -- 2018 Spring and Summer Movies

IHGB #43 -- Pop Culture Slam Dunks
March 15, 2018 10:00 - 53 minutes - 49.2 MBNow that Bachelor Arie found love, proposed, changed his mind, said JUST KIDDING on national television, bought a ring for number two, proposed to her (also on national television), and is off cashing in his fifteen minutes of fame, I'll be focusing on other pop culture related episodes of the podcast. I know those of you who don't watch The Bachelor are virtually high-fiving me right now! In celebration of March Madness, my roommate Lara and I discus our SLAM DUNKS of the last year when it...
IHGB #42 -- Bachelor Arie Finale and After the Final Rose
March 08, 2018 11:00 - 54 minutes - 49.7 MBWe made it through another season. Arie's finale was a doozie. After the Final Rose was a hot mess. I'm sure it met every expectation ABC anticipated for the big event. There was a jilted bride, a girl power moment, speculation, a bland "apology," very little closure, a reunion, an engagement, a new bachelorette announcement, a banjo, a few chaches, and a horse. What more could we ask for? A lot. There's a lot more we can ask. And here's a list: Why did Arie tell Becca that he has "been in...
IHGB #41 -- Bachelor Arie Recap Overnight Dates
February 28, 2018 13:57 - 50 minutes - 45.9 MBNotice I didn’t use the term “fantasy suites” in the title of this podcast. Why? Because a yurt is not the equivalent of a suite. Some Guy in Austin and I talk about this in too much detail and try to puzzle through the different ways Arie and Becca could go to the bathroom. We discuss our favorite moments from Women Tell All and I fill SGIA in on which American is dating which international Bachelor star, Ashley I-Lashes bohunk, and Clare's Canadian love interest. Then we dive into Peruvian ...
IHGB #40 -- Bachelor Arie Recap Hometown Dates
February 21, 2018 15:21 - 40 minutes - 36.7 MBHooray for Bachelor Arie's hometowns! I know we joke about this all the time, but that was the most dramatic rose ceremony ever, right? Who saw that coming? Well, I sort of did. In the final moments. Some Guy in Austin talk about it on the podcast. We also talk about "Charlotte's Web," the infamous Jump and Straddle(R), and who we think of the remaining three has the best chance of landing a diamond ring by Uncle Neil. Disclaimer: We recorded this late at night and we are both a little gigg...
IHGB #39 -- Bachelor Arie Recap Week 7 and Winter Games Premiere
February 14, 2018 23:06 - 49 minutes - 45.7 MBY'all, we have SO much to talk about with The Bachelor AND Bachelor Winter Games. But first, I want to thank everyone who came out to the book launch on Monday. I had a fabulous time meeting people and signing books! I apologize to those who were expecting a recap yesterday. I just couldn't make it happen. However, The Bachelor was playing at the party. It was a DOOZIE! Some Guy in Austin and I start with the abysmal Bachelor Winter Games. Three words: Glitter Bomb Dud. And let’s pretend ...
IHGB #38 -- Bachelor Arie Recap Week 6
February 07, 2018 17:02 - 42 minutes - 38.7 MBWe are halfway through Bachelor Arie’s journey to find love and the only thing anyone cares about at this point is Krystal’s nodes and Baby Bekah’s marijuana farming job. It was a full episode of various dates in Paris -- the perfect place to fall in love. And the perfect place for the ABC censor guys to drop in all sorts of black modesty boxes. To these brave people, I say THANK YOU. For those of you who live in or near Houston, come to my book launch happy hour on Monday, February 12! I'l...
IHGB #37 -- Justin Timberlake's 'Man of the Woods'
February 05, 2018 16:33 - 32 minutes - 29.5 MBJustin Timberlake's new album dropped a few days ago and I've listened to it enough to make my opinion known. In a nutshell, I liked 'Man of the Woods' leaps and bounds better than Taylor's 'Reputation.' My roommate, friend, landlord Lara and I discussed 'Reputation' back in Episode 24. You can listen to that one HERE. Lots of people had issues with our issues, but I stand firm. Let's bring the old Taylor back. And HERE is a link to 'Man of the Woods.' My advice? Listen to it multiple times...
IHGB #36 -- Bachelor Arie Recap Week 5
January 31, 2018 10:00 - 43 minutes - 39.7 MBIt's week five and Arie has not yet found love. Dr. Tia found it, but he hasn't quite yet. After sitting through a lot of Krystal, I'd say the episode circles around the topics of bowling, 21 Questions, and cannibalism. Some Guy in Austin and I spell it out for your here. And now for some links!

IHGB #35 -- Bachelor Arie Recap Week 4
January 24, 2018 14:59 - 55 minutes - 51 MBWell, we finally know how Arie feels upon the revelation that Bekah is 22-years-old. Devastation. Horror. Heartbroken. Pain. The poor guy had to hold it together at dinner while tears pooled in his eyes as he did the mental math to come up with a fourteen year age difference. He likes her, but she's not going to win. I don't think Arie can do it. We also discuss survival skills, how Seinne is slowing climbing the ranks, and KRYSTAAAAALLLLLLLL. Oh! And if you haven't heard yet, I wrote a boo...
IHGB #34 -- Bachelor Arie Recap Week 3
January 17, 2018 11:00 - 51 minutes - 47.3 MBIt's week 3 and Arie has taken the liberty of dumping one of the Laurens who was in my top five. My bracket is officially busted. The only thing that can cheer me up is if you pre-order my book! It's going to debut in three weeks and I couldn't be more excited unless I was a GLOW lady from the '80s who is making a comeback in 2018 thanks to reality television producers needing wacky stunts for winter ratings. Some Guy in Austin and I have fun during this podcast. Thanks for listening and en...
IHGB #33 -- Bachelor Arie Recap Week 2
January 11, 2018 05:36 - 49 minutes - 44.9 MBArie is in week 2 of his journey to find love and I'm already frazzled by the changes ABC has made in our usual second episode agenda. Arie hosts TWO girls with their own one-on-one dates. He even flies to Scottsdale so his mom can meet her clone from 35 years ago. WHAT IS GOING ON? A HOME TOWN DATE ALREADY? WHEN WILL THE MADNESS STOP? If you're interested in reading Arie's episode two recap, you can find it HERE. Some Guy in Austin and I are all over the map during this podcast. He confes...
IHGB #32 -- Bachelor Arie Season Premiere
January 04, 2018 16:25 - 59 minutes - 54.9 MBThe past several days have been an emotional roller coaster. I had a death in the family, so the premiere of Janu-Arie took a back seat to spending time with loved ones. And I think you can hear it in the podcast. Thanks so much for listening and I promise I'll do better next time! If you'd like to read the recap, you can click HERE. Otherwise, get ready to sift through the hair extensions, boobs, and horrific icebreakers to help us predict who will land the coveted spot of Mrs. Bachelor Ari...
IHGB #31 -- Movie Review: Pitch Perfect 3
December 28, 2017 15:39 - 23 minutes - 21.8 MBI saw Pitch Perfect 3 and have lots of thoughts. Everyone knows I love a good girl group singing with only their mouths (thank you Chloe for that description) and my love for the franchise has been well documented on this website. Here's a link back in 2014 when I wrote about my love for the original and here's a link to my movie review on the second installment. Where does Pitch Perfect 3 land in the lineup? You'll have to listen to find out! I'm such an aca-tease.
IHGB #30 -- Movie Review: Star Wars: Last Jedi
December 21, 2017 11:00 - 37 minutes - 34.1 MBMy friend Todd, who talked about the winter movie preview on podcast 23, is back to discuss one of the films we were most looking forward to: Star Wars: Last Jedi. That is a lot of punctuation in one sentence. We have our likes, dislikes, and a whole lotta questions. So find your light saber, snuggle up to your porg, and listen as we try and figure out why Princess Leia was flying through space.
IHGB #29 -- Breaking Down Bachelor Arie's Ladies
December 14, 2017 17:52 - 1 hour - 74 MBWell, it’s finally happened. Bachelor Arie is back and his ladies have officially been announced. I couldn’t be more excited. In keeping with tradition, Some Guy in Austin and I break down the cast one-by-one, based on information we've gathered from their profiles. Join us as we try to figure out how we are going to tell all the Laurens apart. And giggle with us like adolescent school children at the very end. You will hear some silence, but just roll with it. That's us not being able to br...
IHGB #28 -- New Holiday Music
December 07, 2017 12:00 - 35 minutes - 32.9 MBMy friend Ranelle has been a connoisseur of new, original holiday music for years. She does all the research and then tells us what we need to listen to. So now I'm telling you! And because we are in the Christmas spirit, I created a Spotify playlist so you can check out all the songs we discuss on the podcast. Santa is going to be so proud of me for being such a good blogger. I hope he finally brings me what I ask for every year: Enjoy the show!
IHGB #27 -- Hallmark Christmas Movies 2017
November 30, 2017 11:00 - 53 minutes - 48.5 MBIt's the most wonderful time of the year! Hallmark Christmas movies have literally been playing since the 4th of July, preparing us for this podcast. My friend Stephanie and I discuss the brand new additions to the Hallmark holiday pantheon and we do our best to help you decipher between all of the charming town squares, struggling Christmas tree farms, and spontaneous snowball fights that break out in the middle of the street. If you want to watch the trailers, check out this post where I a...
IHGB #26 -- Bachelor Villains
November 23, 2017 11:00 - 45 minutes - 41.5 MBWhen my friend Catha told me her son was being a turkey this week (read: misbehaving) I was inspired to record a podcast. In the spirit of Thanksgiving, Some Guy in Austin and I discuss Bachelor franchise villains, or turkeys if you will. We dive deep, dear reader, reaching way back into the vault for some of these jokers. Not surprisingly, our list was quite long. Villains gotta vil.
IHGB #25 -- The Movie Shag
November 16, 2017 12:00 - 33 minutes - 30.8 MBI'm guessing many of you have never even heard of the movie Shag. I'm sad for you and excited for me that I get to change that! My friend Stephanie and I discuss this wonderful little film in GREAT DETAIL (read: spoilers included) and we are super pumped to share our enthusiasm with you! Please ignore my weird, scratchy voice and instead bask in the glory of a darling coming-of-age story about four friends who spend a week in Myrtle Beach in 1963.

IHGB #24 -- Taylor Swift's 'Reputation'
November 13, 2017 12:00 - 33 minutes - 30.6 MBThis podcast is coming at you early because I just couldn't wait to let y'all know how I felt about Taylor Swift's new album 'Reputation.' And boy, do I have a plethora of feels. My roommate Lara and I discuss all the tracks. You can listen along HERE. We rave about Taylor's recent appearance on Saturday Night Live as the musical guest, which you can watch on her website. Did you see the special on ABC of Taylor singing our FAVORITE song 'New Year's Day?" No? Well you can watch it HERE! ...
IHGB #23 -- Winter Movie Preview
November 09, 2017 14:33 - 44 minutes - 41 MBI don't know about you, but I'm ready for the upcoming winter movies. Call me crazy, but the summer movie season was a bit of a dud this year. Other than Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2, Spider-Man Homecoming, Wonder Woman, and Home Again, I pretty much stayed at the house and ate my own popcorn. Clearly, I have a thing for super hero movies and love stories. Throw dance and music genres in there and I'm golden. That's why I invited my friend Todd to help me out with episode 23. He's way m...
IHGB #22 -- I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool
November 02, 2017 06:42 - 55 minutes - 50.6 MBSo many of us love country music, but Some Guy in Austin and I break down the difference between "real" country music and "pop" country music. In short, you won't find any Affliction shirts or jeans with rhinestones on the butt in this podcast. We do discuss Rocky Mountain jeans which came in all the colors of the rainbow. A country music legendary guitar player by the name of Redd Volkaert. From best moment EVER from the CMA Awards, I give you two of my loves: Chris Stapleton and Justin T...
IHGB #21 -- Outlander: He Said / She Said
October 26, 2017 13:47 - 40 minutes - 36.7 MBEpisode 21 of the IHateGreenBeans podcast is all about the television show Outlander. I have never been silent about my love for this show, but I thought it would be fun to discuss Jamie and Claire from a male perspective. Thanks to his wife who has very good taste in television programming, Some Guy in Austin not only watches, but has very specific opinions about a certain Scottish highlander and his Sassenach. We have a long debate about this moment: And believe it or not, we have a healt...
IHGB #20 -- Author Melanie Shankle: "Church of the Small Things"
October 19, 2017 14:54 - 56 minutes - 51.9 MBOn this episode of the iHateGreenBeans podcast, I interview my friend Melanie Shankle.

October 12, 2017 18:48 - 1 hour - 59.5 MBIt's episode 19 of the I Hate Greens Beans podcast and Some Guy in Austin and I are taking walk down Memory Lane. We rank the men on The Bachelor! Well, it's more like an aggressive hike, because we talk about past bachelors from the beloved reality show on ABC. Did you know there have been twenty-one men who have willingly taken a journey to find love? That's a lot of seasons! We debate our favorite bachelor, our not so favorite bachelor, and memorable moments from past years. I talk abou...
IHGB #18 -- Favorite Movie Musicals
October 05, 2017 21:14 - 1 hour - 65.9 MBI am a fan of musicals. That's weird to admit. It's like saying, "Hey y'all, I hate green beans." After recording this podcast with my friend Stephanie, I forgot how much I love musicals. Choosing my favorites was next to impossible, and as the podcast goes on, I realize there are beloved musicals that I completely forgot. Dreamgirls, for one. Jennifer Hudson and Bey? Yes, please. Also, Rock of Ages. Tom Cruise as an 80s rock star? I'll allow it. Stephanie and I dig deep. Here are a few thi...
IHGB #17 -- Tony, Danny, or Bud - Who's your favorite Travolta?
September 28, 2017 11:00 - 41 minutes - 37.8 MBWhen I asked Some Guy in Austin if he wanted our first non-Bachelor related podcast to focus on John Travolta, he shouted "YES" before I could finish my question. Needless to say, Tony, Danny, and Bud shaped my adolescent self in the '80s and the same can be said for my friend. We have a ball talking about our favorite John Travolta memories. Saturday Night Fever was formative for SGIA. Behold the power of disco: Can't you imagine SGIA dancing the same moves? Oh, you can't? Well here's a li...
