With the major film festivals completed, we launch into award season with the kind of prestige drama that was designed for the fall: an adaptation of Ben Shattuck’s The History of Sound. Host Jen Sopchockchai is joined by Greg Cass and Antonio Elefano to talk about the decades-spanning drama about a singer, played by Paul Mescal, and a musicologist, played by Josh O’Connor, who meet by chance and forever change one another’s lives.

This time, everyone on the episode has read the source material, so get ready for some serious book club time!

We go into SPOILER MODE at the 21:43 minute mark. If you are not ready to sing spoilers with us, you can listen safely until then.
