A & A Studios LLC
The Creators
When two people are best friends since kindergarten, they tend to come up with a lot of inside jokes and wild ideas. Ashley (left) and Alanna (right) formed a fake company, “A & A” back in middle school, and created all sorts of materials under the “A & A” name. So when it came to naming the production company behind their podcast sitcom, the decision was a no-brainer. Now A & A Studios, a company that has been around since 2004, is official as of 2025 and is ready to make the world laugh along with them.
Crazy World
The Show
Back in 2012, Alanna and Ashley started to jot down life events that were so amusing they sounded like a scene from a sitcom. They joked about how it was their fake show, which they dubbed “Joe & Ian”. They collected more amusing anecdotes over the years, and suddenly characters blossomed, settings developed, and symbolism formed. The sitcom was later renamed to “Crazy World” to reflect the ensemble cast.
By 2024, Ashley and Alanna had enough material that they knew they could make their show a reality (albeit in a podcast format, and not a visual format). They established small, achievable deadlines to make the sitcom a reality.
Crazy World is a refreshingly warm and hopeful show that focuses on the residents of Higgins Farm Apartments and how they make it through life – with humor, heart and a few questionable decisions. Every episode will be a standalone story that touches upon wild societal obstacles people deal with every day. We’re talking easily digestible, moral-setting topics like self care, technology, and escapism – relatable, common experiences delivered with witty humor. Each character represents a way in which people react to those obstacles – the workaholic, the peacekeeper, the narcissist, etc.
Like nostalgic sitcoms of the broadcast TV heyday, Crazy World will feature 24 episodes per season, averaging about 30 minutes per episode. It will have a full theme song and no laugh track.
