Episode 9-

Lights, Camera...Romance! This week, we're going back to school with Backstage Pass, a game that's all about the real college experience: working four different jobs, trying to become a successful makeup artist, being a full-time student, and somehow falling in love during all of it.

Kelly Nugent (Teen Creeps, Exile) returns to break down this truly wild, and weirdly STRESSFUL game. Join us as we discuss the love interests, who range from absolute nightmare, to MAGICIAN, to pretty cute actually. We also get into pilgrim chic, applesauce cupcakes, and a deeply unsexy nickname that will haunt our dreams for years to come.
