Dirty Dancing - Chapter 6


Featuring a chapter novelized by ⁠⁠Ursula Lawrence and narrated by ⁠David Wain, plus an interview with ⁠⁠Grant O'Brien. Hosted by Dave Hill.


David Wain is best known for The State, Wet Hot American Summer, Role Models, Stella, Wainy Days, Wanderlust, They Came Together, Children's Hospital, A Futile Gesture, and Medical Police. His latest project is Mr Throwback starring Steph Curry on Peacock.


Grant O'Brien is best known for his work with Dropout, where he co-hosts Dirty Laundry and writes Breaking News. Check out his podcast What Have You Been Drinking? about cocktails and why we love them.


Ursula Lawrence has written for Drunk History, Adam Ruins Everything and a few other things that didn't get made but still got her Guild health care so really no big. She's currently marooned in Madison, Wisconsin.


Each season on The Novelizers, we take a beloved film, then get comedy writer (from SNL, The Simpsons, Colbert, and more) to turn it into a hilarious audiobook, narrated by comedians and actors. We also feature interviews with the people who (may or may not have) made the original film.


The Novelizers is produced by Stephen Levinson, with Graham Douglas, Cole Emoff, Kevin Carter, Christine Bullen, Dennis DiClaudio, Rob Kutner, and Dave Hill. Music and additional editing by Cole Emoff. Graphic design by Crystal Dennis. Theme song by Andrew Lin, performed by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nick Testa. Reprise performed by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dave Hill⁠. Distributed by Cincinnati Public Radio.


The Novelizers is a work of unauthorized parody.
