  • A good idea, but room for improvement.

    I was excited by the idea of this podcast and the topics they’re picking, but have been pretty frustrated by the lack of research/preparation by the hosts, and there is a lot of room for improvement with the audio quality and presentation (there is a lot of “um” and “Yknow”s that are grating to listen to).

Q: Marie, how does Cher's 'Cher-ness' come through in these 80s performances beyond Moonstruck?
Cher's screen presence blends sharp wit with a powerful, uncompromising femininity that anchors even the most fantastical scenes; her delivery of dismissive takedowns and magnetic energy elevates the material, making the romantic and melodramatic beats feel earned.
