This week Allen sits down with playwright, Michael Allen Harris, to worship our Taurean queen: Janet Jackson. We start off learning about Michael's kitten, Moesha, whom he saved from a hole in a wall. Allen describes being blinded by a tree dancing down the street while listening to "Feedback." Janet's music is just THAT inspiring. And Michael's remembers getting his Janet Jackson card after watching the "If" video. Allen learns Janet has over forty #1's and was the highest paid artist twice in her career! And Janet's like, "Meh. Casual. Whatever." Michael remembers Janet referencing the Matrix before the Matrix was even a thing in the "What's It Gonna Be Video." We talk about her iconic key earring. And Michael dishes on his Antigone-esque biography of Janet's life (the divas cannot wait for this to happen). Also, Janet is the reason Youtube exists! Finally Michael says "Thank you, Miss Jackson" because he's nasty. Worship with us!
