When we decided to name the episodes where we cover major themes, the main sources, and key background information for Shakespeare's plays, we definitely weren't thinking of the implications it would have for this play in particular.

But now we are here, and discussing stuff to chew on for Titus Andronicus!

Content warning: Titus Andronicus contains depictions and descriptions of acts of mutilation, graphic discussions of sexual assault and rape, overt racism, non-consensual cannibalism, and torture. Please listen with care.

Shakespeare Anyone? is created and produced by Kourtney Smith and Elyse Sharp.

Music is "Neverending Minute" by Sounds Like Sander.
