Lettuce Perfect 2 - Show Notes

The Lettuce Podcast presents its first "Insta-cast" where Charlotte, Tori, and Laura watch a movie and immediately record a show afterwards. The girls take turns in the moderator chair to host this episode about Pitch Perfect 2, the sequel to the popular a capella comedy. They explain how a trip to the movies with the intention to see Avengers: Age of Ultron resulted in a free screening of Pitch Perfect 2. They share their experience with the movie franchise, their thoughts about the sequel, and the use of music and comedy throughout the film. Tori, Laura, and Charlotte also share their favorite musical numbers from the movie. Laura explains her appreciation for the movie, but also discomfort with some of the racially-based humor. Tori expresses glee over the inclusion of Daily Show regulars in the Sing-Off scene. Charlotte, being the only Lettuce Head who had scene the first movie, gives context for some of the happenings in the sequel. Can the Barden Bellas win the World A Capella Showcase and reinstate their good name? Will Beca's internship at a recording studio keep her from contributing to the group? Can an original song really win an a capella tournament?

 

This episode's Podsnack, French vanilla cupcakes, was inspired by the international theme of the World A Capella Showcase. The Podtail was chosen due to the inclusion of the Green Bay Packers in the Sing-Off: Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy, which is made in Wisconsin!
