This week we're shaking down a movie that's hard to watch in any lens, let alone 2019, 1967's "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying". 

We're going to discuss everything from whether or not this movie satirizes or makes light of sexual harassment, Bob Fosse coming to save the movie's choreography and Robert Morse's weird need to nuzzle his co-stars.

From cockroaches to sushi and everything in between, the Brothers Stew (Tim and Alex Stewart) discuss life and trials in the Big Apple as well as other ramblings including an interview with Aaron Patrick Craven about his time on tour as Johnny Castle in "Dirty Dancing" and Zach in "A Chorus Line".

My guest co-host Dr. Alisa Hurwitz and I break it all down.
