I really appreciate Bowen giving Matt the space to connect with Cynthia and Ariana - obviously these are people that Bowen has worked with and known for years now, so it's special to give Matt the opportunity to connect and have a moment with them. Arguably the emotional peaks of both interviews have been fostered by Matt. Great work girls!!
I came to say the same thing! It really made it special that Bowen did that and Matt also was so genuine to want to connect with them and had the opportunities to do so!
her perspective of elphaba just changed how i grew up viewing the character. it makes soooo much sense that elphaba is not this always angry and miserable girl cuz she grew up having people giving her the look, insulting her and everything. cynthia is very detailed
YES i am uncultured and haven’t heard of cynthia unti wicked and huge talent aside, HER STYLE IS IMMACULATE!! the nails always eat and the fashion is just everything!!
I IMPLORE you to go on a Cynthia Erivo rabbit hole that I did a while back lol particularly her performance of "Alfie" at the Kennedy center, her cover of "ain't no way" and of course her live performance of "stand up" at the Oscar's, (which she should have won in my opinion which would have made her an EGOT)
She knows exactly who she is and who she's here for - those that need healing and deliverance from evil. She has so many tools aka talents because her real job requires that kind of toolbox. Art is a ministry. Empathy is a ministry. She isn't in it for a paycheck. She's in it because she has to be. Her alternative careers were teacher and therapist, which she still functions as in this career. Imagine if we all knew exactly what we were supposed to be doing and who we were supposed to be doing it for.
Her Elphaba is so emotionally intelligent, no, it’s a genius portrayal. I completely agree with Bowen that the inner child concept made me roll my eyes. Admittedly during my first watch, I found the inner child scene cringe. On my second watch I clearly saw little Elfie peak through her strong exterior throughout the movie. That scene made me tear up the 2nd time. I was (still am) captivated by Ariana but Cynthias performance is haunting and will probably stay with me forever
This episode was so special, same as with Ariana last week! Cynthia is so talented and I'm glad that both she and Ariana gave Bowen his props for being in the film! If she tours the album next year, will def be making my way to a show near me! The intention and care is there! Just, wow! And I loved her rendition of Alfie!
''Get to the joke, before someone else does'' STORY OF MY LIFE. UGH. I can't wait to see this film!!!!! ALSO They way I fell off my seat when Bowen said Walkers are not the same as Lays. LET THE CHURCH SAY AMEN!!!!!!
both of these interviews has been so lovely 🥹 getting to see ariana and cynthia talk about the roles with so much love and care, everyone having the space to share and such deep connection and also light and fun
Mannnn I just love her so much. So so excited for Wicked and what else that is in store for her. I watched the interview with Ariana as well. I love both of them so much and I’m so incredibly proud of them 😭
These two parts are like our Avenger’s Infinity War/Endgame. We needed that time to sit with just how heartbreaking the end of those Part 1’s truly are. To jump straight back into everything after that heaviness would do everyone a disservice. I get now we can watch both back to back, but we need the time to fully process all of part 1 before we can even begin to broach what part 2 is going to mean. (Even if it is frustrating to see takes of people who only know the part 1 lore and none of the part 2, but we grin and bear it because the payoff will be so worth it).
Saw her perform at the Hollywood Bowl, and she was wonderful. Thanks for featuring her on your podcast. Am a fan of the books, movies( Wizard of Oz, Wiz), and musical. Can't wait to see Wicked in the movie theater 😍
As a girlie who is also sensitive to onions and garlic… I stan this SO much! I use garlic infused olive oil and it’s helped SO much! Love you Cynthia! ❤
45:41 Oof!! I have had straight up influenza like this and BABY it was terrible. By day 6 & 7 I was have the most insane dreams from trying to disassociate from my body 😅 but you come back SO grateful to be in good health again.
I can't wait for her album!!! She's one of the best vocalists alive right now and I was so disappointed when I listened to her first album because I felt like it never really captured the magic in her voice. Now since she mentioned Aretha and RnB, I'm hoping it'll connect to me this time.
This is there Harry Potter. An epic movie that will become a classic, watched and talked about for decades. The fact it was shot at the same location as some of the Harry Potter films makes it that much better!
Beautiful interview 👏🏾👏🏾. And Cynthia, bae-bee, is walking in her purpose and it is shining so bright! I am grateful for her continuously sharing the special gift God and universe bestowed onto her. What a special human. Thank you 🙏🏾
If Cynthia Erivo has a million fans, I’m one of them. If Cynthia Erivo has ten fans, I’m one of them. If Cynthia Erivo has one fan that one is me. If Cynthia Erivo has no fans, then I’m no longer alive. If the world is against Cynthia Erivo, then I’m against the world.
EXCUSE ME but I have JUST clicked pause at the end of NORA FROM QUEENS S1 E9 "Launch Party" where not only did Matt Rogers have a guest spot, but Bowen is a regular (semi-regular?) and the show ENDED with Bowen NAILING the last note of "Defying Gravity" at the end of Wicked Act I, theater version, because the show aired on Comedy Central in 2020. And when I say NAILED, I mean I knew what he was doing midnote because it was 100% recognizable. So BIG UPS for THAT!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Amazing interview!!! Can someone please help a girl out and tell me what style of gold earrings Cynthia is wearing cause those are a need right about now. What a stunning human!!!!
When I say I love this interview these guys just overall the full on interview itself . I’m surprised when Bowen spoke on the Capricorn space and I’m like omg I think that’s why I’m the way I am precise
Okay I love Matt’s passion for this film but I feel like he’s spoiling the viewing experience for the rest of us by talking about all the best scenes/lines/songs/moments!! 🥲
Her saying her offerings are a way to remind us that we are gonna be ok… tears. I’m SO glad she’s aware of the power in her work… this movie isn’t out and has ALREADY got me. I’ve been crying so much during all this press and interviews, the commercials and previews even! And I’m genuinely not a cryer haha. I’m always putting on a tough front I guess- idk. Anyway the point is I feel it’s already softened me a bit. Can you imagine once I actually get to see it? This movie has come at the most important times (for Americans at least, but probably many others) and I am so grateful and SOOO excited. 😊🥹

You mean Matt talks too much?
@@J1mmyMack not at all
Couldn't have put it better 💜
I thought this too!!!!❤0
Watching Matt beaming while Cynthia compliments Bowen is such a lovely reflection of their friendship.
her perspective of elphaba just changed how i grew up viewing the character. it makes soooo much sense that elphaba is not this always angry and miserable girl cuz she grew up having people giving her the look, insulting her and everything. cynthia is very detailed
Cynthia interviews are what i need right now. I need to feel my skin and radiate love.
So true.
"Its not enough that can sing, its not enough that you can act". Yeah she moved my heart with that one
I am speechless at how beautiful this conversation is, every part of it.
THANK GOD Alfie was mentioned... like right away. What a vocal MOMENT
No literally I hear it almost daily!!!
matt and bo catching the reference and both humming the melody in the same moment is why this podcast will outlive all the rest 58:02
I've watched Wicked four times, because of her, she is wonderful, will be one of my favorite movies ever.
this woman is AMAZING. her voice isn't human... everytime she sings I got chills... the talent is unmesurable...
Her singing puts me on an emotional roller coaster
Them mentioning Cynthia’s rendition of Alfie is literally one of my favorite songs to listen to. Almost every song day
YES i am uncultured and haven’t heard of cynthia unti wicked
and huge talent aside, HER STYLE IS IMMACULATE!!
the nails always eat and the fashion is just everything!!
Haha just because you didn’t hear about her doesn’t make you uncultured. It’s a massive entertainment landscape :)
@@C53Maximoff No no, let them say what they said haha they were uncultured, but they aren't anymore and that's what matters.
I IMPLORE you to go on a Cynthia Erivo rabbit hole that I did a while back lol particularly her performance of "Alfie" at the Kennedy center, her cover of "ain't no way" and of course her live performance of "stand up" at the Oscar's, (which she should have won in my opinion which would have made her an EGOT)
you need to see the clips of her whistling-singing on jimmy fallon show, it is sooooo beautiful, idk ppl can do that
@C53Maximoff I very much appreciate this comment. Everyone can't know and be aware of everything. We should be kind, like you, when people don't.
She knows exactly who she is and who she's here for - those that need healing and deliverance from evil. She has so many tools aka talents because her real job requires that kind of toolbox. Art is a ministry. Empathy is a ministry. She isn't in it for a paycheck. She's in it because she has to be. Her alternative careers were teacher and therapist, which she still functions as in this career. Imagine if we all knew exactly what we were supposed to be doing and who we were supposed to be doing it for.
Beautifully said
Thank you for this. You have no idea how timely it is. Continue to bless and be blessed 💖
Forget the Oscar and EGOT, give her a NOBEL PEACE PRIZE 😭
Yes, I wholeheartedly agree ❤
Her Elphaba is so emotionally intelligent, no, it’s a genius portrayal. I completely agree with Bowen that the inner child concept made me roll my eyes. Admittedly during my first watch, I found the inner child scene cringe. On my second watch I clearly saw little Elfie peak through her strong exterior throughout the movie. That scene made me tear up the 2nd time. I was (still am) captivated by Ariana but Cynthias performance is haunting and will probably stay with me forever
I got chills just cause they brought up alfie
Right!!!
Agree. Had to pause and went to watch it
This episode was so special, same as with Ariana last week! Cynthia is so talented and I'm glad that both she and Ariana gave Bowen his props for being in the film! If she tours the album next year, will def be making my way to a show near me! The intention and care is there! Just, wow! And I loved her rendition of Alfie!
God, I'm so obsessed with her, she's so talented and regal.
''Get to the joke, before someone else does'' STORY OF MY LIFE. UGH. I can't wait to see this film!!!!!
ALSO They way I fell off my seat when Bowen said Walkers are not the same as Lays. LET THE CHURCH SAY AMEN!!!!!!
I get chills hearing Cynthia sing sometimes when she speaks, what a song bird💛💚
both of these interviews has been so lovely 🥹 getting to see ariana and cynthia talk about the roles with so much love and care, everyone having the space to share and such deep connection and also light and fun
the power these three have together 💚
This was incredible, the depth and connection and flow you found for this interview is A+!!
Couldn't be a more fitting time for this to be made and bring this legendary Broadway musical to a broader audience.
You guys are just crushing it every week thank you so much for this podcast
las culturistas is really eating with these guests!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Mannnn I just love her so much. So so excited for Wicked and what else that is in store for her. I watched the interview with Ariana as well. I love both of them so much and I’m so incredibly proud of them 😭
Matt that color was MADE for you. STUN.
She is such….an artist… it feels deeper than “entertainment” …. Im such a fan
Hit me like a ton of yellow bricks
Great interview! I love Cynthia Erivo so much! I will support anything she does. I'm so happy with the success she is having!

I enjoyed the whole interview, but I gotta say it that her singing at the end it makes the whole thing worth it. I just love her.
I'm literally crying I'm sooo happy for this I love her so much!!🥹🥹💚✨️
As a girlie who is also sensitive to onions and garlic… I stan this SO much! I use garlic infused olive oil and it’s helped SO much! Love you Cynthia! ❤

just a capricorn and her water signs getting along as per usual
I can't wait for her album!!! She's one of the best vocalists alive right now and I was so disappointed when I listened to her first album because I felt like it never really captured the magic in her voice. Now since she mentioned Aretha and RnB, I'm hoping it'll connect to me this time.
This is there Harry Potter. An epic movie that will become a classic, watched and talked about for decades. The fact it was shot at the same location as some of the Harry Potter films makes it that much better!
"What a huge year for green!" lol. I agree I chose green over pink.
SO READY TO LISTEN TO THIS !! ILY CYNTHIA 🥹💚🙌🏽
This is one of my favorite interviews on Las Cultch

Love this month of wicked guests!!!!!
there hasn’t been a wicked interview I haven’t cried to… I’m gonna be a mess when I watch the film
She’s literally perfect
If Cynthia Erivo has a million fans, I’m one of them. If Cynthia Erivo has ten fans, I’m one of them. If Cynthia Erivo has one fan that one is me. If Cynthia Erivo has no fans, then I’m no longer alive. If the world is against Cynthia Erivo, then I’m against the world.
I feel like I’m winning, with green being my favorite color
I'm sorry everyone please shut up for a second. THIS JACKET IS EVERYTHIIIIIIIIIING!!!!! Please continue your viewing experience.
Cynthia is such an inspiration 💚🤎💛thank you for sharing your heart and talent with us

Let the Wicked Witches of the West film! 😂
Amazing interview!!! Can someone please help a girl out and tell me what style of gold earrings Cynthia is wearing cause those are a need right about now. What a stunning human!!!!
Defying gravity was soo good but the song and scene that broke me was I’m not that girl and the ballroom scene.. cry galore.
Cynthia is such an amazing person and incredible talent, love her with all my heart, extremely happy for everything she's achieving
For Bowen: The fairway market on 23rd and 6th has some Walkers! Enjoy🥳
When I say I love this interview these guys just overall the full on interview itself . I’m surprised when Bowen spoke on the Capricorn space and I’m like omg I think that’s why I’m the way I am precise
Music can save lives. Absolutely
love cynthia!!
When she sang Annie Lennox!!!
I am allergic to onion and I be suffering 😭 less when it’s only powdered versus fresh.
Cynthia not being able to do defying gravity because of the strike and then finally coming back and getting taken out by the flu must have been awful.
I could NEVA give up my garlic 😂😅
I cant wait for the new album
So they filmed part 1 and part 2 of wicked ???
Yes both parts are filmed, part 2 is being edited
Who can relate Sun : Taurus / Moon : Sagittarius / Rising : Capricorn
Ugh love her 💚💚💚
Can’t get behind the Ginger slander but I simply love this woman. 💚
MISS CYNTHIA U ARE WONDERFUL!!!
Confused when did they tape this? Didn’t they have big premieres across the globe?
This was filmed on Oct 29, as the showing Bowen talked about seeing "last night" was on Oct 28.
Wicked part 1......wow didnt know there will be part 2
Cynthia has to be nominated for Oscar if not win it.😊
we get an interview with BOTH!? the best day.
Cynthia didn't perform at the Tonys a day or two after Pulse. Pulse happened 2am that very morning and the Tonys were that night.
what a gift
Love love LOVEEE Cynthia
That’s wild that Matt and Bowen’s friends didn’t know what Juno is about. You don’t even to know the movie to know what it’s about.
Okay I love Matt’s passion for this film but I feel like he’s spoiling the viewing experience for the rest of us by talking about all the best scenes/lines/songs/moments!! 🥲
OH HOW I LOVE HER
Her saying her offerings are a way to remind us that we are gonna be ok… tears. I’m SO glad she’s aware of the power in her work… this movie isn’t out and has ALREADY got me.

This movie has come at the most important times (for Americans at least, but probably many others) and I am so grateful and SOOO excited. 😊🥹
the Lorde reference ate
that was the best !
i am obsessed with her
i gasped so loud oh my god
I need her to sing defying gravity live 😭
1:12:23 I disagree with the Onion & Garlic take!
Percy Pigs are so good! Love some British snacks!!
this is such a pleasant surprise
The ending wrecked me
Is Bowen in “Wicked: For Good”? Or fully wrapped?
