Racism is in 1st grade?
In Part 1, we spilled the tea on crazy backstage stories and theater pet peeves. But today in Part 2, we’re stepping into The Main Act and taking this conversation to a whole new level. We are pulling back the curtain on the hard truths: tackling racism in the theater industry, calling for real structural diversity in casting, and reflecting on the crucial lessons learned throughout their journeys that have sparked true growth as performers.
It’s real, it’s unfiltered, and it’s necessary. So pull up a chair, tune in, and let’s get HYPE!

Retiring Playlists and Breaking Barriers: In the Haus with Sharee
In this episode, we are joined by my incredible friend and collaborator, Sharee! We first connected in 2024 during her award-winning run as Sophia in The Color Purple, and she brings that same vibrant, undeniable energy to everything she touches. A brilliant creative curator who loves a good laugh, Sharee is always a joy to be around.
We cover a lot of ground today, starting with our mutual obsession with french fries and a hilarious debate on which songs desperately need to be permanently retired. Then, we shift gears for a grounded, insightful conversation about what it’s like to navigate the industry as a performer of color and how the theatrical landscape is evolving today. Come in the house and join the conversation!

Friends since the 7th grade (circa 2001), Phil is a guy of many talents: an Eagle Scout, a massive sports fan, and the guitarist for the band Astrofix. Beyond the music and hobbies, he’s a dedicated family man, happily married to his wife Paige since October 2024, and a proud dad to their son and his stepdaughter.
Tune in as we take a nostalgic trip back to the golden days of MTV and VH-1, dive into our shared love of music, and reflect on family and the life lessons we’ve learned along the way. Grab a drink, get comfortable, and come join us in the house!
