Things are getting controversial here at Pod's the Thing, as we welcome the Marvelous Dayeanne Hutton to the show to talk about one of Shakespeare's more problematic plays, The Taming of the Shrew. In this scene between Petruchio and Katherine, we delve into a younger Shakespeare's portrayal of banter and wooing, and how modern productions can grapple with the more troubling parts of the play. Featuring: the weird Induction, On the Origins of Negging, a hint of Johnny Bravo, winged turtles, and chaotic swans.
