About this episode

This week, Jennifer & David are joined by actress, musician, and all-around icon, Hayley Kiyoko! Wizards fans know her as “Stevie” and she’s taken the world by storm with her pop music career!

Jennifer, David, and Hayley spill all the tea about her time on Wizards and the dynamic between Stevie and Alex. They talk about Hayley’s fears of coming out, how Disney wasn’t ready to explore openly queer relationships, and how much it means to Hayley to be a positive example for so many young people. Hayley also shares the freedom she’s found through creating music.

What did everyone buy with their first paychecks? Why was Jennifer insecure when Hayley came on Wizards? Did Hayley suspect her character on Wizards could’ve been gay? Join us to find out!
