sequel to a daydream

Apr12

that she had months ago

the storyline is different

the world is new and magical

more than she has ever wanted

she finds a new ideal

a little dream to keep her satisfied

for as long as she’s afraid

she could never say a thing

not one word to him

of course

this time she is not shaking

because this boy does make her nervous

but not like the one before

her poetry is somber

not full of utter glee

yet even though she wants to

she’d never let the feeling out

the seashells in his eyes

and the sandy beaches in his hair

she seems to think it’s worth it

and life won’t get in the way

but the sequel to this daydream

is happier and kind

the sort to make her feel things

no matter how hard she tries

avoidance is the safest

the route to keep the status quo

nothing makes her feel this way

and she wants to let him know

something i wish i could say

Apr12

this is for you, 23.

i don’t know why, but i like you.

i like your smile.

your eyes, the color of seashells.

i like the way you seem to always know what’s next.

you’re prepared for anything, i guess.

i like that you care.

i like something about you.

but i can’t figure out what it is.

so i guess i will wait and see.

because all i can think about is you, 23.

so much for a productive afternoon.

i wish i could tell you all of this.

but i can’t.

not yet.

not now.

i need a nap.

an early summer day

Apr12

i let myself get too attached and fell so hard for you

if only i had kept up my guard i wouldn’t feel so broken

just the pure stupidity of hearing another girl’s name

that makes me feel like nothing more than an afterthought

even if it means nothing to you and the context proves important

i wish i could just understand the way you see me from the outside

the perspective i need to get inside your head

i want to see your face and know that it’ll all be worth the while

for all i need and all i know is i feel so lost and alone today

the day i so looked forward to, out in the warm summer breeze

the summer that came three months early

the summer that could mean so much

for me, for you, for what it’s worth

i wish i could be with you

Young Danielle, Rider & Will Meet World

Apr10

When a listener emailed us about some old cassette tapes he had of ‘90s teen magazine interviews with Will, Rider and Danielle – we couldn’t have been more intrigued. And boy…did they deliver!
With the help of Producer / Husband of the Podcast, Jensen Karp, the gang will listen to never heard before (and cringeworthy) audio about their crushes, their teenage rooms and what they want to do after acting. And we find out exactly when Danielle’s incredible interviewing skills started (spoiler: it was recently).
Get your Walkman and giant headphones ready…it’s time for the Interview Tapes

TGI – Episode 214 “I Am Not a Crook”

Apr6

In yet another example of life imitating art, this episode features Cory deciding to hop into politics and run for class President. As the hosts begin to recap, it’s hard not to notice the modern day relevancy.
And when it comes to onscreen action, Danielle, Rider & Will throw around some theories on why this episode, that may or may not have been written by an NFL legend, turned out feeling a little chaotic. Plus, in a podcast first, Will remembers an emotional moment from filming that Danielle has evidently completely repressed. New details await!

TGI – Episode 213 “Cyrano”

Mar30

It’s time to shine a spotlight on Frankie, and the incredible work of a young Ethan Suplee, as Danielle, Rider & Will breakdown an episode of second hand romance. We finally get a bullies-centric episode, but were they given enough? And what’s up with these always rotating lockers?
And for good measure, Rider and Will compare body grooming techniques. Cause, of course they did.
