About this listen

In this episode, Brittany Brown breaks down the emotional, political, and psychological layers of the second Wicked film — the choices, the betrayals, the transformations, and the truth behind who really gets labeled “good” and “wicked.” We dive into:
  • Elphaba’s full transformation into the Wicked Witch of the West
  • Glinda’s rise to power and the cost of being “the good one”
  • The emotional weight of “No Good Deed” and “For Good”
  • How propaganda shapes public perception in Oz
  • The shift from fantasy to reality in the story’s tone
  • Why Wicked isn’t about heroes and villains — it’s about control, image, and survival
  • How the ending reframes everything we thought we knew about Oz
This isn’t just a movie breakdown — it’s a conversation about identity, sacrifice, truth, and what happens when friendship meets power. If Part 1 was about becoming different,
Part 2 is about surviving it. 🎭✨
