In this episode, hosts Brie Roche and Alaina Smith activate their research on material culture, feminist theory, and madness to explore the ways that gender inflects attitudes towards madness inside of Brome's play. Featuring thorough close readings, scene performances, and a guessing game starring a special guest who has *no idea* what The Antipodes is all about.

Content note: Discussions of madness, stereotypes surrounding mental illness, and ethical issues surrounding of medical treatment.
