In this episode of the Table 6ix Podcast, hosts Tiana Atapattu Jayatunga and Dana Duncanson are joined by radio host, YouTuber and content creator Azalea Hart to talk about millennial nostalgia and the Backstreet Boys’ 12 Toronto concerts in 2027. They explore how the group’s return has sparked excitement across generations and what makes fans want to see the artists they grew up with live.

Azalea shares her perspective on how entertainment and pop culture media have changed throughout her career. The conversation looks at how ’90s and early-2000s music and trends are finding new audiences, and how social media can turn familiar songs, styles and moments into shared experiences again.

The conversation also explores Toronto’s growing reputation as an entertainment destination and what major concert runs could mean for downtown restaurants, hotels, bars and other businesses. Plus, the group considers whether the Jonas Brothers could bring a residency to Toronto.
