    Chris’s last song with guess the lyrics
    It isn’t Sondheim. Stuck it out this far together Put our dreams through the shredder Let's toast 'cause things got better And everything could change like that And all these years go by so fast But nothing lasts forever That’s the whole verse. Its Halestorm Here’s To Us .

    They haven’t posted since august 2020. Where did they go, will they be back. I hope they come back and if you want to end the popcast please just tell us.
  • Whit__Walk
    Miss this one!
    I love this podcast so much! I totally understand the need to take some time off after the loss of Naya but I’m still holding out hope y’all will come back to talk through more episodes. Great podcast!

    I’ve always loved glee as of many it has helped me be open to who people are. And I think This podcast is truly amazing and helps the listener get into behind the scenes and really feel what the actors felt.

    Don’t Feel Pressured!
    I wasn’t going to say anything but some of these recent reviews are acting very entitled over a FREE podcast. I can’t imagine how difficult it would be to continue the podcast, especially during a season that is very Naya prominent. Take all the time you need! Even if you decide to just continue the podcast as it was before it was a glee recap or don’t come back for a very long time (or at all), you will have a lot of support! I’m sure I don’t have to tell you this though.
  • gleekgirl.11
    Why did they cancel glee?
    I love glee and in the podcast Jenna and Kevin are so funny and it’s almost like a talking behind the seans but do you know why they canceled glee?
  • expecto_patronum97
    Please don’t pressure them to come back!!
    I see so many negative reviews about how they haven’t had a new episode since August... could y’all please stop with that?? Kevin & Jenna lost one of their close friends last summer and watching the show and talking about it may be triggering for them. They will come back when they are emotionally ready to talk about it. (Try putting yourself in their shoes: how would you feel if your best friend from high school just passed and everyone was begging you to go online and discuss it for hours?
  • cmirsay
    Love them

  • gleeeeekkkkkkk!!!!!!!!

    Where is the recap?
    … Where is the recap?
  • Foothilllane
    Great Idea
    Let me start by saying I didn’t watch glee when it was on TV but watching it now that it is on Netflix. When I found this podcast I thought-what fun. Just like watching “watch what happens live” after the housewives shows. Jenna and Kevin seem like SUPER nice people. I get that it is there podcast but their characters on the show were more about supporting the other main storylines. They say so little about the other main characters Lea, Cory, Diana-who I’m really interested in hearing much more about. just gets a bit boring after a while. All the guest are great. They say almost nothing about Cory or Mark for that matter and then abandon the whole thing after Naya tragic death (who is found on the exact same day Cory died)? Strange. PS: someone should fact check what is said. They are often not correct about the way they recall many details in the storyline.
  • il_kerri
    Please update.
    I really enjoyed this podcast each week when it was active. I laughed with the memories of Glee and cried when I hear about Naya. I completely understood when Kevin & Jenna needed time away to deal with their grief. I understand that the grieving process is different for everyone. I wish that we could get some kind of update as to if the podcast will ever return. Kevin and Jenna are both really active on social media and Jenna even has a new podcast with her fiancé... congratulations. I just wish someone could take just a moment to let the loyal fans know the fate of this podcast. It’s kinda frustrating to be honest 🤷🏼‍♀️

    This is such a good podcast! I’ve tried to listen to podcasts before, and they never worked for me. Then I found Showmance, and it worked out amazing for me! Whenever I feel low, I sit down, and listen to it. It’s helped me focus on my work, and passion. I love this podcast, and can’t wait for the next episode to air!
  • Tarabartee
    Love this
    Really wish you’d start this back. I know it’s been hard since Naya, but maybe a tribute to her then pick back up.
  • Amy Shepler
    Love this!!
    I love everything about this podcast...Kevin and Jenna are hilariously entertaining and I love all the different guests and stories. I listened to most of these while working in a warehouse packaging merchandise and I would just start cracking up and my coworkers thought I was crazy...I want more!! I really hope they will continue doing episodes❤️ I know there is still pain losing Naya, I didn’t know her, but connected to her character in so many ways. ❤️❤️❤️

  • emma kate s
    Makes my day!
    I am LOVING rewatching Glee and listening to this podcast at the same time. You both are so funny and this brings so much light to my day! I am one of those teenagers that is just now watching glee since I was too young when it came out. And I’m so happy that I found this show! Love you guys!! Also, in response to your question about character development, I think that either Santana, Kurt, or Kitty had the best character development.
  • PancakeLover335
    I love it!!
    It’s like reliving the show from behind the scenes!!
  • pcpuccio2
    A Great way to re-live a great show!
    I am so against trying new things lately but I have a job that requires me to just listen to music or shows through my Bluetooth so I finally conceded and tried podcasts. I am always preferential to seeing people when they talk but after just one episode of this show I am in love. I love all the behind the scenes, the truth, the laughter, it’s all enjoyable to listen to while cleaning. Thank for your being awesome!

    Best Podcast Ever
    This is literally the only podcast I can listen to without getting bored. Kevin and Jenna always bring such fun, and genuine energy that you can’t help but keep listening. Anyone who watches glee undoubtedly needs to give it a listen.

    Happily listening again!
    Great job on this podcast. Absolutely love the content, the guests, and everything about it! Kevin and Jenna stand for morally important issues; getting to know them as professionals and personally in the entertainment business-fantastically compelling! I’m even happy with their choice in sponsors. ☺️. So funny, too! Enjoy it so much that I love listening to it for a second time.
  • debby0686
    So fantastic
    I am a total gleek and have seen every episode at least twice. I’d planned on just listening to this, but I had to go back and watch for all the little Easter eggs they mentioned. All the guest stars are so fun. I love Mike O Malley and l am looking forward to the Chris and Amber one. Everyone DOES need a little Tartie in their life and I am here for it! Completely understand the need to break, due to your loss, and really miss you guys. Re-listening to all of them in the meantime.
  • MattyD120276
    Very charming
    It’s always nice to hear two actors that had chemistry on tv, get along in real life. Jenna and Kevin bring that chemistry to this weekly podcast. Whether they are interviewing fellow podcasters and comics (the episode with Nicole Byer and Mateo Lane is easily one of the all-time funniest things I’ve ever listened to) or fellow Glee cast members, you WILL be entertained.

    AMAZING

    MISS IT

    Comforting podcast
    I discovered Kevin and Jenna’s podcast when looking for more content involving Naya. She was a great light for me as I went through high school queer AF but also closeted AF. I’ve been rewatching Glee and find myself sad a lot when watching Santana’s storyline. Discovering this podcast and listening to the 2 Part HeYa podcast, I was reminded how many great friendships Naya was surrounded by, how much she loved her family, and what a light she was. Just because she’s not physically here doesn’t mean that light will ever go out. Thanks for this podcast, and for the unintentional reassurance that just because life is lost doesn’t mean that energy, that love, will ever fade from the earth.

    Love love love hearing from Jenna and Kevin and the various guests. We’ll always love Glee, and hearing from these two is a great way to keep it in our lives. Much love, we’ll be here if and when you’re ready to come back ❤️

    This is what integrity looks like.
    To whom it may concern, I’m sorry that your friend died, but that it not a reason for a podcast to have 5 stars. I believe that rating this podcast out of pity or nostalgia for the show, ‘Glee,’ is dishonest. Anyone who does this is a liar and is betraying other podcast listeners. One must hold themselves to a standard, and if “Showmance” (horrid title) has 5 stars, there must be liars. Objectively, this cannot be 5 stars. I’m giving this podcast 1 star because they ramble, I dislike the sound of Ms. Ushkowitz and Mr. Hale’s voices, the sound quality is so-so, they have far too many adds, episode discussion is only second to fun cast stories, “Gleek of the week” is shouted in an annoying way, and listening the that fan “of the week” is little depressing usually. I also think making a podcast about yourself and your show when the show was not that good, and when it had an audience of mostly deprived teenagers who are hopefully grown now and forgot they ever liked Glee (like myself), is narcissistic. The show also declined in quality and ended in a disaster season with extremely low ratings and bad reviews. Not that the reviews were ever very good. It has very little cultural significance in 2020, so does it really warrant a whole podcast? I think not. However, this is America; Do what you makes you happy, former actors from ‘Glee’ whose names I’d rather not type again, especially the girl. Post Script: I’m not sad about Ms. Rivera because I did not know her and, like ‘Glee’, she had little significance to the general public after the show ended. I think “Gleeks” (hate this term) who are mourning are unintelligent deprived teenagers. That being said, it’s a tragedy when most people die, especially mothers. Cordially, {name redacted for sake of privacy}

    GODSENT
    Good job guys! Could make an argument that this is better than a glee reboot. Jus gotta get Dianna Agron as a guest and it would be even more perfect. And if she could be paired up with Chord, that would be Heavenly (Still shipping). Keep up the awesome job!
  • gdbrickey.
    A reason to smile!
    During this time when there seems to be no good news, this podcast never fails to bring a smile to my face. Jenna and Kevin epitomize Glee, pun intended. They exude joy and genuine delight in talking to each other and their guests. Even when talking about very serious subject, they are positive and hopeful. This is so refreshing in this time of divisive cynicism and mistrust!

    During the past few months I’ve rediscovered Glee. Glee has kept me sane, and I’m extremely grateful for this podcast! Thank you Jenna and Kevin. Please keep up the good work!

    Favorite podcast ever!!
    literally the most perfect podcast for any Glee fan to listen to! I love the stories and hearing about behind the scenes of these episodes. Kevin and Jenna are hilarious!!
  • ualagirl
    For Gleeks and anyone interested in the workings of a tv show (but mostly for Gleeks)
    Lots of inside stories, but Kevin and Jenna don’t dish any dirt. Their friendship comes through clearly, and they are always thrilled by their guests (it’s fun that they aren’t always other actors). I am looking forward to you going through the whole series!
  • Kabiefetus
    Best part of my week!
    I have listened to all the episodes. Then I listened again. Then I watched the episodes of the tv show and listened to the corresponding podcast. Your guys are amazing and I need more of this in my life
