Anything Goes
























"Anything Goes" combines the best songs from Broadway, Stage, and Screen with commentary (often humorous, sometimes silly, randomly satiric) on hot topics like politics, pop culture, LGBTQ issues, women's issues, celebrities, and everything in between. Co-hosts Helena Handbasket and Richard Wad (who incidently, hates showtunes) are sometimes informative, sometimes infuriating, but always strive to entertain. Tune in to see what they say next, what they play next, and what they obsess about next...in a show where anything goes.
