Podcast Overview

Hosted by: 🎵 Alissa Roca — soprano, founder, and Executive Artistic Director of Paradox Opera 🎭 Gwen Hyland — baritone, librettist, and creator of Don G (Abridged!) and PXO’s upcoming major new commission The Genders of Gybberidge Opera, fandom, and everything in between. Fandom of the Opera is where high art meets high chaos — a podcast exploring opera through the lens of pop culture, fandom, and creative collaboration. Each episode, Alissa and Gwen pull back the curtain on what makes opera magical, messy, and more relevant than ever — from behind-the-scenes stories and artist interviews to deep dives into music, storytelling, and the strange overlap between classical and internet culture.

Episode 13: Oops, All Trains!

<html>After a brief hiatus due to performance chaos, we've returned with what might be our most unhinged episode to date -- possibly because we recorded it at 2 AM. Please enjoy Alissa and Gwen's wide-ranging discussion on composers in hell, kink philosophy, reinventing trains, and ragebaiting Gwen. Also, Gwen does a bunch of voices, several of which may get her canceled. Is this a coherent episode? No. But is it an entertaining episode? God, we sure hope so.Hosted by Alissa Roca & Gwen Hyland Edited by Gwen Hyland Art by CHIMI Music by Rachel Dean and Erin Reifler</html>
