Journalist Theresa J. Beckhusen is here for a musical adaptation of a half-heard history lesson retold through the lens of “everything’s fine!”

Topics Include: not-so-bad-for-1969, Thomas Jefferson’s views on enslavement, how dumb “The Egg” is, Mr. Feeny, Vietnam, and one song that is actually more relevant now than it even was then.

A movie that is really two movies: the first is a historical fiction romance and the second is a horror-comedy about a dead guy and his talking bat.
