Ep50 - Bye Bye Birdie + The Sound and the Fury

Crossover Appeal

Brace yourself for some misplaced nostalgia and mid-century Justin Biebers, because this week we’re mashing up classic Americana musical Bye Bye Birdie with perspective-bending classic novel The Sound and the Fury. We talk about the redundancy of this crossover in a world where Mad Men exists, why Brady Bunching it isn’t always the best solution, and how much more expensive it’s gotten to do the show now that Annie’s cashed in her middle-school musical points and gone Equity. Check us out for a fun, wide-ranging discussion, but make sure to do it quick, before a meteor crashes into the city and kills everybody.
