The dream of the 90s is alive in podcast form.
We're launching Podlandia AO Rewatch, our brand new podcast where we revisit every episode of Portlandia together, breaking down sketches, going deep on our iconic characters, and pulling back the curtain on how it all got made.
And we'll also be joined by the people who helped bring it all to life. Guest stars, collaborators, and friends, including director Jonathan Kreisel, the mayor himself, Kyle MacLachlan, legendary musician Amy Mann, and many more.
Kyle is going for it here. You fully improvised not just words, but a song, a melody.
Well, I thought you were all going to write a song.
I remember you thinking that.

Your boyfriend is?
Vincent Mason.
How'd you meet him?
He DM'd me.
What was his DM?
He said he liked Thinking About You and I was teasing it. So he sent me the song.
Did he really like that song or was he just trying to use that to get to you?
He says he really liked the song.
Hey everybody, we're hanging out today with one of the fastest rising new voices in music, Stella Lefty. She's awesome. Singer-songwriter who went from posting songs online in college to having one of the biggest breakout moments of the year with her song Boston, which is also awesome. You might know her from her song Think About You, racked up millions of streams, really introduced a lot of people to her before Boston hit. She has a new EP that's out called Is This Heaven? She's getting ready to hit the road. So I don't know what I expected, but pretty great. Not going to lie to you. Here she is. I think you're really going to enjoy her as well. One of my favorite new artists now, Stella Lefty. Stella, good to see you.
Bobby, good to see you.
Is that your real name, Stella? Mm-hmm. Because it's a cool name. My name's not real. What's your real name? Well, Bobby's my real name.
Is it Robert?
No, Bobby is my real name.
Oh.
But Bones is a fake name.
I kind of thought that.
Right. But your name's also cool. So I didn't know if it was real or not.
Well, Lefty is like a shortened version of my last name.
Well, my real last name is Bunzopolis.
