In their first sponsored episode of No Script history, Jackson and Jacob discuss Jaclyn Backhaus' play Men on Boats. Based on a true story, the script follows a group of intrepid explorers who set out to map sections of the Colorado River. The characters - historical persons - are all cisgender white men. The cast? Not so much. Listen in as Jackson and Jacob discuss this rousing tale that asks questions of how we understand American history.

Episode 1 of this season was a (fairly) brand new musical. Now, in one of the great whiplashes of No Script history, Jackson and Jacob pivot entirely and visit an American classic by (perhaps) the greatest male American playwright: Tennessee Williams. His play Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is often called his greatest work. Listen in!
