    Apr 2 2024

    Welcome back to The Nerd Expansion Season 3! We've talked about dragons. We've talked about ghosts. We've talked about science. Today we are talking with Rebecca Zaretzky and her particular form of Animal Communication through the spirit world!

    Lions and Tigers and Hedgehogs—oh my! Rebecca is an Animal Communicator, Psychic, and Artist. As a pet portrait artist (Instagram @belleandhookcreations), she started to receive messages from the animals she was painting, which lead to animal communication and—the hedgehogs! After working with many hedgehogs, she became known as “The Hedgehog Psychic” and created @the_hedgehive to provide spiritual support to the Hedgehog community. She also offers virtual and in-person readings for people/pets and in-person Tea Leaf Readings at Tea & Tarot in Madison, CT.

  • 64. Kyle Winnick & Contemporary Musical Theater
    Oct 3 2023

    Welcome back to The Nerd Expansion! Today's guest is the one and only Kyle Winnick and his nerd love is Contemporary musical theater. It's awesome.

    He has been appreciative of musical theater since he was a young child and would watch classic MGM musicals with his mom and brother. It wasn't until he was victim to the high school choir to drama club pipeline and was unexpectedly cast as the lead in the spring musical, Once Upon a Mattress, that the theater bug truly bit him. Being surround by peers who knew of a secret world of talent, drama, and glitter was extremely exciting, and he dove into the world head first. From there he would perform in, direct, produce, stage manage, and see tons of musicals and obsess over countless more cast albums, single releases, and theaterMania gossip.
