ORIGINALLY AIRED 4/ 14 / 2022 It was a mistake to try to talk about all of High School Musical in a Crumb! We are BRIMMING with HSM thoughts. We're joined by actor Allie Freed to try to encapsulate these modern classics.  Instagram: instagram.com/authorizedpod

We love Species! And even though this one is abjectly terrible, it is still fun to discuss with some nice buddies.

You know how Hannah and Overbye are always talking about Stargate? Well, we don’t mean this one. We dive into the novelization of the flawed film that launched some terrific television.

ORIGINALLY AIRED 4/28/2022 The Cheetah Girls are going to Hollywood! Er, we mean Bollywood. Also, we barely talk about this book and movie. It's fairly unremarkable! Instagram: instagram.com/authorizedpod

ORIGINALLY AIRED 4/7/2022 Did you know there's THIRTY Cheetah Girls books? There are. Seriously.

ORIGINALLY AIRED MARCH 31, 2022 On today's CRUMB, we revisit Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time in Hollywood to check out the 60 pages of bonus content in the Deluxe Hardcover.

This week on Authorized, the Enterprise is in a bit of trouble. A time traveling mad man has killed a member of the crew, and the only thing that can stop a bad guy with a time travel is a good guy with a time travel. Spock valiantly makes himself an anachronism.  No Hannah this week, but a slew of guests. Mark Stay: https://markstaywrites.com/ Sarah Welch-Larson: https://www.dodgyboffin.com/ And...

ORIGINALLY AIRED 3/17/2022 Welcome to No Man's Land, the space between Authorized seasons. This week we'll be keeping ourselves in your mind by ranking the Season 2 novelizations, as well as discussing some other entertainment-related questions. Which novelizations were good? Which were bad? God, I hope this isn't anyone's first episode. Follow us on Twitter: Twitter.com/authorized...

Hannah and Overbye went on a podcast to talk about how great novelizations are!

A comic of the movie of the comic! It's disappointing tho

ORIGINALLY AIRED MARCH 22 2022 Emma Stone eat your heart out (We know what this phrase means now!).
