This week, Lucy tries to get into Ricky's new show -- he needs ballet dancers and burlesque comedians, and Lucy is willing to do either... so of course she manages to do both!  This one's a classic, guys! DIscussions this week include Tchaikovsky, shopping with chimpanzees, and (interestingly enough) the episode Lucy Plays Cupid. Warning, there's a tapping noise around the 30 minute mark. Apologies for that and any other weirdness in the sound quality.
