Cindy and Christine praise the heroes of Broadway and bring its heinous villains to justice over bottomless libations. Who doesn’t want to listen to two industry outsiders judge professionals who perform for a living? Experience is overrated…some would say. But alcohol is not. They know what they’re talking about!
