  • It's the return of #KoberLoo! This episode is a special threesome hang with Will Swenson, Andrew Kober, and Ramin.
    Get more information about The Hang via bpn.fm/thehang.
    Will Swenson is currently starring as Neil Diamond (Then) in A Beautiful Noise, on Broadway. He is known as one of Broadway’s most versatile leading men and has been seen on Broadway in roles across a wide character spectrum. Will received critical acclaim for his performance as the subversive hippie Berger in the 2009 revival of Hair for which he received Tony, Drama Desk and Drama League Nominations. He went on to perform the role in London’s West End as well. He starred as Inspector Javert in the 2014 revival of Les Miserables, which gave him the (mis)fortune of becoming bestieas with Ramin and Andrew. He played the conflicted drag queen Tick in Priscilla: Queen of the Desert, (Drama League Nomination). In Waitress Will performed opposite the show’s creator Sara Bareilles. Other Broadway: Disaster!, Lestat, Brooklyn: The Musical, and his sentimental favorite 110 in the Shade: the production where he met his wife, actress Audra McDonald.
    Will played Philo Barnum in the movie musical “The Greatest Showman”, and can be seen in the feature films “This is Where I Leave You”, “The Kitchen” and “The Switch”. Will spent a season on the Netflix series “The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” as the evil Professor Carcosa. He played opposite his wife in the Covid/Zombie thriller series “The Bite”. He has guest-starred on “Law & Order (SVU & CSI)”, “The Good Wife”, “No Tomorrow”, and “The Code.” He played Henry Donnenfeld on the Netflix crime drama series “Hit and Run”, and later this year will be seen as the father of the Vampire clan The Fairmont’s in the new Netflix drama “First Kill”. Some of Will’s earliest memories involve listening to his Dad’s 8-track copy of “Hot August Night”. Will can’t remember not having most of Neil Diamond’s songs permanently imprinted on his brain. And he’s super happy about that.
    Oh, and Neil Diamond gave Will one of his guitars. An actual Neil Diamond guitar. WHAT!?

    I just giggled solidly for 35 minutes. Clearly the challenges of aging are the same for both genders - I have very similar convos with my 40s-50s girlfriends. Fitness, workouts, body image, greys!
    As an Australian, I can understand Ramin perfectly well - Andrew and Will not quite so easily!

    So excited when I saw this video was posted. Love your Vlogger 24601 vlogs.
    Also, congratulations Ramin on reprising your role as The Phantom, this time in Italy’s debut Phantom production!! That’s so awesome!! The Italians are really in for a treat! I’ve always wanted to go to Italy but now I’ve never wanted to go more!

    This was so fun to watch, because I didn’t know about you guys until well after the Les Mis vlogs, and I could only look back and regret missing them (but also have fun just watching them). So it was great to experience it in real time this time, albeit taped a few weeks ago, but it beats 8 years ago. You guys… it’s just fun to get a glimpse like this into your lives and feel like a part of it. It doesn’t need to be poignant; it’s just fun. I just wish I could participate. Speaking of which, I hope you guys will get together and do an instagram live or something. Good show!

    I didn't get into Broadway until this past year, so I missed when your first vlogs came out, but I watched them all and loved them so much! The second I saw your first video a couple weeks ago with Andrew, I watched it immediately and loved it, and I hoped that you would get with Will again as well. The way the three of you communicate is hilarious (it reminds me of myself and my two sisters), and it makes for lighthearted, fun, and funny videos.

    When is Ramin gonna invite Christy Altomare to be on The Hang? I really want to see them reunite.

      @@azvascos7542 yeah that’s be fun to see. Have one with just Christy and then another one with her and Derek and John (like how Ramin did one with Andrew and this one he has both Andrew and Will) since Ramin never interacted with them in the Royal Misfits Vlog, he only interacted with Christy and the girls (the girl who played little Anastasia, her understudy and their child guardian) in her dressing room.

      @Chelsea Baker We used to watch Christy's vlog with all of their shenanigans during that show. I need to watch more of Ramin's old ones. We just saw him in concert Friday night with Seth Rudetsky, it was an amazing show!

      @@azvascos7542 since Ramin is playing Erik (The Phantom of the Opera) again I would love for Christy Altomare to be his Christine (and that is her full name so she’s an actual Christine) and for Derek Klena to play Raul. For one I’d love to see Ramin and Christy work together again (they’re my favorite musical theater actors) and I’m disappointed there was no fight scene between Gleb and Dimitri in Anastasia, so this way Dimitri and Gleb (in a way) can finally go at it for Anastasia’s affections, because I’m sure Gleb would like Dimitri as much as Erik (the Phantom) likes Raul (which is Not At All!)

    • @azvascos7542

      @Chelsea Baker My son is an Erik and my daughter is equally obsessed with Phantom and Anastasia as you. We regularly watch the Phantom 25th anniversary dvd. She saw Anastasia 4 times on Broadway, and we met Ramin the first time. She cried as we were entering the show because the girl next to her said, "Some Derek guy is off tonight." They all are fantastic vocalists, we love to do Broadway dream casting too!

    Tell Andrew to stop being so hard on himself! He’s great and we all love him! Also, can you just make him permanent co-host (or at least a frequent co-host if he’s busy) because the Koberloo banter is top tier! Ramin & Andrew are the funniest podcast duo I’ve seen in a while. Even when they don’t think they’re being funny, it’s funny.
    Also also, that rumble in Will’s voice hits different on those mics you’re using. It’s like ASMR. He should read for Audible because wow…I could listen to that man talk for hours.
