The Up Here Down Low (Companion Podcast)

Written by: Straw Hut Media
  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Up Here Down Low, the offical compaion podcast to the Hulu original modedy & musical Up Here! Here we look behind the scenes and behind the songs! We know that Hulu released all eight episodes at once, but we like to do things a little more traditionally around here. What can we say? We’re romantics! Every week we’ll be talking with the cast, crew, and creators of the show about how they make musical TV magic.

    Hosted by Madison Cross and Julian Goza.

    It’s the last episode! Can you believe it? There have been so many amazing guests on the show over the last 8 weeks. True icons from the theatre world and beyond.

    On this episode, in honor of the season finale, Maddy and Julian are back with several of those icons to talk about episode 8, the collaborative process of putting this show together, and what the future holds for Lindsey and Miguel.

    You'll hear from Mae Whitman and Carlos Valdes, Executive Producer and Director Tommy Kail, Showrunner Stephen Levensen, choreographer Sonya Tayeh, actors Andrea Burns and Scott Porter, and of course, songwriters and creators Bobby Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez.

  • Episode 7: Baggage (with John Hodgman, Bobby Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez)
    May 5 2023
    Today, Maddy and Julian talk with the amazing John Hodgman who plays Lindsay’s father Tom. He’s maybe more well known as a writer. He’s been a regular contributor to the New York Times Magazine, the Daily Show, and This American Life, and he’s been producing his own podcast since 2010, Judge John Hodgman.

    He was also the PC in those Apple commercials where Justin Long is the Mac. You remember those? How could I forget? That’s him! Weird.


    They talk about what it’s like acting rather than writing, the zhuzh he came up with later for his line about the serial killer scale from episode 2, and how his own parental advice may or may not have left a lasting impression on his son.


    After that, they talk with songwriters and creators Bobby Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez about the songs in episode 7.

    Apr 28 2023
    In this episode, Maddy and Julian sit down with Andrea Burns who plays Miguel’s mother and Norm Lewis who plays the wizard Ciprian.

    They talk about Andrea’s longtime friendship with actress Katie Finneran who plays Lindsey’s mom, some of her favorite moments on set, and an emotional scene from this episode that ended up getting cut.

    Then they talk with Norm Lewis about what it’s like playing a video game wizard, how he keeps his beautiful voice healthy and full, and whether or not he’s ever partaken in mushrooms.

    And as always, they talk about the songs in episode 6 with songwriters and creators Bobby Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez.
