Joe and Steve reflect on their unimpressive social media presence, what Hamilton means to them, and what they've been up to since the podcasts aired. An extra episode that accomplishes nothing.
Joe and Steve gave themselves quite a task with their opening number. Can they complete their first scene and set about finishing the next great American musical?
Joe and Steve find out that writing a song and some lyrics is one thing, but weaving those into a coherent opening number that also introduces the characters and themes of your entire production is entirely different. Can these two fools, well, figure it out?
Joe and Steve have to marry Joe’s musical sketches with Steve’s lyrical musings. Can they make a coherent song out of these pieces and will they match the themes they spent all this time developing?
Joe and Steve have talked - and talked! - a lot about their musical. But where’s the music? Joe shares some compositions and sketches. And Steve listens (sort of). For a change.
The Plot thickens! Spoiler alert - Joe and Steve talk out what happens in their new musical from beginning to end. Would you make it to the end of this musical - or this episode - if you were in the audience?
Joe and Steve debate who the key characters are in their musical. Who do they pick and why? And does Joe ever do his homework?
Joe and Steve clearly know a bit about their topic, but certainly not enough. So they phone a friend! Well, not a friend, but a very knowledgeable stranger. What will an expert in their subject say about these two fools and their project?
Joe and Steve geek out on a deep dive of what they think makes a good musical - and one of them has an epiphany about their own! Will this idea work, or is it the worst idea in the history of ideas?
Joe and Steve are old friends with an old idea for a musical that died. Now they want to resurrect it. But should old ideas stay dead? And who are these guys?
