How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore and a scottsman, dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot in the caribbean by providence, impoverished in squalor, grow up to be a hero and a scholar? We cover all this and more in our episode on HAMILTON: An American Musical. Broadway vets Stacey Sumereau and David Sanborn join us to share their stories and their thoughts on this remarkable piece of musical theatre. Along the way, Mike plays some music, does his Lin Manuel Miranda impression, and cries like a small child.
