After discovering a promising money-making opportunity over the radio, co-hosts Joshua and Dan reminisce about NBC's recent broadcast of Annie Live! As our co-hosts wait in line outside the Warbucks mansion, praying they're either very progressive or having a particularly bad eyesight day, our hosts pass the time touching upon the pending future of Encores!, Joshua teaching Dan about fan-fiction, and a retrospective on the state of the live TV musical.

Happy Birthday to us because today Joshua and Dan discuss Marilyn An American Fable! Many questions occur on our host's way to podcasting stardom, questions that must be asked. Questions include: how many composer/lyricists does it take to screw in a spotlight? Is Marilyn: An American Fable the Diana The Musical of the 80's? Why is the title Marilyn: An American Fable such a tongue twister? So bleach your hair, cheat on your baseball beau, divorce your boring playwright, and tune in!

Sometimes people leave you halfway through the wood. Do not let it grieve you. No one leaves for good.

1930-2021

In one of the most egregious instances of absent foresight yet seen on the podcast, Dan lets Joshua dedicate an episode to one of his hyper-fixations and our hosts travel through Monty Python's Spamalot by way of coconut. Dan puts on his special listening earplugs as Joshua rambles on and on and on, and our hosts mull over such diverse elements as Eric Idle’s rocky past with Seussical, Mike Nichols’ aggressive direction methods, and more insertion than you’d think.

Joshua and Dan, heartbroken upon learning this week's show is not in fact an autobiographical play about our hosts, watch Neil Simon's classic The Odd Couple anyway. Much like these characters, our hosts jab and prod away as they dreamcast their fantasy productions (including their own), Adele Dazeem-ify some names, and discuss how Neil Simon's plays hold up to a 21st century theatregoing audience.
