That's Aloud!

Like a lot of people, I wasn't quite sure how to process or respond to the events of January 6th, 2021. That is, until Mike Marlow summed up my feelings perfectly by writing on Facebook, "This is without a doubt the shittiest production of Les Mis I have ever seen." 

I decided to take the idea that life had transformed into bad theatre and run with it, publishing a tongue-in-cheek "review" of the attempted coup. 

And then, it went viral (in a good way, not like the 'rona). It's now been translated into foreign languages and has brought my lil' ol' website more traffic than it saw in all of 2020 combined. You can find the original here: https://www.thatsaloud.com/post/attempted-coup-a-review 

Enjoy!
