You might be able to tell from the interview clips where I'm in a sweater, but this doc took about six months and over 2,000 hours to make. I can honestly say that after this behemoth of a video and a month of going to bed at 3am and waking up at 8am I can feel myself creeping closer than ever to burn out. I'd love to be able to take a break, but with financial and, in some cases, legal obligations to get these videos up, I can't.
The channel's officially gotten way too big for one person and the only way it can survive is by growing the team. Don't get me wrong, I love doing it. But with how high the workload is getting, love and all nighters isn't enough. If you want to keep seeing high quality documentaries and preserving the history of these shows then chip in a dollar and help us reach our $50k goal on Kickstarter! The future of Wait in the Wings depends on it: www.kickstarter.com/projects/waitinthewings/wait-in-the-wings-new-heights
How can we apply to join the team?
I love the 2000s commercial callback for the sponsored content 😂

Brendon should win a daytime Emmy for that brand deal.
I remember becoming a fan of Freestyle Love Supreme because of their collabs with College Humor back in the day. I can still recite Lin's battle rap against Amir word for word to this day lol. I knew about "In The Heights" but was shocked when "Hamilton" started gaining traction and I realized that Lin was behind it all.
This was absolutely fantastic I'm at it feels like we're one step away from that big Hamilton video
As a hip hop lover and rap history enthusiast I really appreciated the detailed (and accurate!) explanation of the foundations of the genre. Thanks for that Brendon xx
I thought the hulu doc covered this topic really well but you managed to dig up some great additional backstories! Awesome job!
this was incredibly insightful into the lives of people i've studied and followed and idolized.. as well as artistically endearing to my personal struggles.. it was relatable and believable and i thank you so much for making this
finding out Utkarsh Ambudkar could've been Burr in an alternate timeline is messing with my brain
There’s a recording of him doing act 1 with the entire cast on here somewhere
@@lookingforamindatwork oh i've listened to it now, but it's still messing with my brain
Holy throwback, Batman. That Education Connection reference launched me back to middle school.
Wow thank you for your work. I sent this vid to the FLS crew, old and new. Wild to see my/our life flash before my eyes (yet again)…
I saw Freestyle Love Supreme in November of 2021, and it was one of the greatest nights of my life. Two Touch, Jelly Donut, C-Jack and Aneesa Folds were my MCs that night, and they freestyled one of my stories!
Learned about these dudes from an old Jake and Amir vid. Years later I was like "why does that Hamilton guy seem so familiar?"
"Aight bitch! Let's take it down to Chinatown. It's time to to put the beat down on Encyclopedia Brown" all time great lyricist Lin-Manuel Miranda (CollegeHumor)
Same
I’m a critical role fan who was not expecting to see Utkarsh here bc I didn’t know what other work he had done. Got knocked out from the whiplash bc I’m still not over Bordor (IYKYK)
That was an amazing documentary Brendon. Thank you so much for all the hard work and I can't wait to see what you do for the great comet video.
Also enjoy that those videos are longer than 15 minutes 🙂
That AG1 rap ad is the first ad I haven't skipped IN YEARS!!
I had no idea the dude from Pitch Perfect and Never Have I Ever (don't remember his name) had something to do with FLS, that's really cool. Would've been super different if he was Burr in Hamilton.
This was such a fabulous watch. Loved them for years and you did an amazing job on this.
It's been several hours since watching this and I still have your ad song stuck in my head
That Education Connection parody is the best thing ever 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾🤎
I've been following FLS since their TV show. Took the online academy that started after we all got shut in on 2020. I've seen them live a number of times all at the Booth, and I have a few videos of their Broadway's Back performances on my channel.
I forgot to mention the interview I did with Shockwave (Chris Sullivan) for the Musical Improv Shop Talk podcast! Can't share a link here because of TH-cam, but you should be able to find it with those terms in the search bar.
I'm so happy I clicked on this!! Thank you for putting all the effort into this wonderful doc ❤
Great video as always thanks for persevering fascinating theater stories!
You released another banger! Good job!
great great great video as always!
Such a great documentary. Amazing work!
This was an amazing video!
This is stunning. Major kudos for all of the effort that went into this.
This video was so well done. Ahhhh!!!!!
This was such a good documentary / video essay. My heart was pounding and I was on the edge of my seat. Thank you so much!
I'm working while watching, and that ad reel was .... I mean, bless your heart. Lol
Fantastic docu as usual!
Great doc Brendon! So insightful.
This was great. I hope more people see it
The AD.HELL YEAH
That was incredibly detailed and informative. Kudos!
that ag1 spot kinda tugging on education connection's crown a lil bit
Well done
Without these guys, we wouldn't have the millennial sensation that is Nick Cannon's Wild n Out.
2005 was also the year Tim Minchin debuted at the Fringe. I wonder if anybody saw them both🤔
This video has criminally low views. The ad alone deserves to be on trending.
Hope for this video inspired a film about Freestyle Love Supreme
Why do I see him wherever I go
Because he’s everywhere
It's beginning to look a lot like Lin time, everywhere I go 🎶🎵

The ad was fun af.
Of course the one time I click on a link for a brand deal, the link it broken

Hi wings!

Funny ad. XD
that ad was a damn masterpiece
This starts with a long-ass ad with no Skip feature.
I used to watch Freestyle Love Supreme a long time ago. It's definitely fun to watch, but I don't need to let content creators who can't be bothered to follow norms by allowing us to skip if we want. I'd look for Lin-Manuel's stuff elsewhere
I don’t control the skip features?
@@WaitintheWings Fair enough. But why is only this post different from almost all other posts? No reason you would necessarily know, but it did surprise me.
There was a rap in miraculous ladybug the movie because of this mans influence. He need to be spirituality stopped.
Oh my god Bor’Dor
Dude! I had to make sure I was watching the right video for a second. Bor'Dor's friends in the Ruby Vanguard might have been cooler than I thought.
the Ruby Vanguard isn't a cult, it's just a super dedicated improv rap group
NOT THE EDUCATION CONNECTION BEAT
I may have missed it as I was cleaning and listening more than watching, but I hope you credited the Hamilcast podcast for the sound clips you used, since Gillian seemed surprised her content was included
It’s the first thing in the video description (after the sponsored ad link, of course, gotta make those dollars)
The AG1 commercial you did was the WHITEST thing I’ve ever seen in my life but hilarious. Thank you
Mel-bin.
I think everyone is kinda sick of Lin beinf everywhere. Love the video and rhe content her creates.. but i think he needs a break
how are americans chronically unable to say edinburgh correctly. it's "ed-en-breh" not "enin-borough"
