Ep 33 - Britney Spears Phase 1 (Part 1) [with Tim Murray]

Big Diva Energy

You're so lucky, Divas,

She's finally here.

And we don't just mean comedy icon and Spears stan, Tim Murray (@TMurray06) who we've secured, along with her extensive credits list.

No, we're excited because we've strapped Tim in for the first part of two episodes detailing, what we'd consider, "Phase 1" of Britney "It's Britney, Bitch" Spears.

That's right, we plan on going all the way from 1981's Mississippi Nativity, up to the 2002 masterpiece Britney in this round of episodes.

PHASE. ONE.

This week we only make it as far as '...Oops', the single, but that doesn't stop us running the early gamut of one of the seminal divas; from just-a-small-town-girl to that single, diving into the early years of Ms Spears, taking in the revamped Disney club, the ill-fated group Innosense, and Britney and Natalie Portman's Sliding Doors moment.

Don't worry, because the whole cast of the Spears Circus are here:

• Jamie
• Lynne
• Jamie-Lynne
• Brian

Meanwhile, we introduce the villain of the piece: Justin "Scourge of the Divas" Timberlake and we go into (some might say too much) detail on the Jessica Simpson B-plot that's always running in the background.

Along the way, Holly and Tim stir the transatlantic pot by pitting games against each other in "Actress or Star" vs "Can Sing or Can Sing", the gang pitch Real Housewives of Broadway as an idea that is real and a thing, and they all discuss the very real danger of Patti LuPone being angry at you.
