  • Shakespeare - The Plays - Twelfth Night
    Apr 5 2024

    We had so much fun delving deeply into Julius Caesar last episode that we decided to tackle one of the comedies!!

    Twelfth Night is quite special to us, because we played Viola and Malvolio together a bunch of years back at Tulsa Shakespeare in the Park.

    That being said, we have A LOT to say about the play, that production, the characters, other productions we've seen and all that proverbial jazz.

    Enjoy!!

  • Stabby Shakespeare
    Mar 22 2024

    Beware the Ides of March!!!

    So, last week we were just shooting the proverbial shite, and it was - of course - March 15, the Ides of March. Which led us to a conversation about Julius Caesar. Which led us to a conversation about the state of politics in the good ol' US of A.

    Ugh.

    So we thought... let's talk some more about this!!!

  • Dinner with Shakespeare
    Feb 23 2024

    One of our lovely listeners, Susan, asked us "Which characters would you most enjoy (or not) to have a meal with?"

    When we read it, we thought: What a fantastic idea for a podcast episode!!!

    So this is it!!! We discuss who in the canon we'd love - or not love!! - to break bread with.

    Thanks, Susan!! We love you!! Enjoy!!

  • Bride of Sonnet Shakespeare
    Feb 9 2024

    We warned you!! We did!! We said there are 154 sonnets and we are bound and determined to get to ALL of them!!

    In this episode, the lovely and supremely talent Bruce Cromer joins us to discuss Sonnet 126 - the WEIRD sonnet. The sonnet that marches to its own drum. The sonnet that is not like any others.

    What, you say??

    Truth!! Have a listen!!

  • Swan Shakespeare
    Jan 26 2024

    Oh listeners... a year ago the podcast was in the heart center, Stratford Upon Avon. We were reminiscing about our lovely adventures there and thought...

    What about the swans?

    Luckily for us, LA's partner Don is an animal guy. So we asked him to do some research on swans, those Stratford ones in particular.

    Did you know swans are monogamous and mate for life? And that they are bad asses that you never want to piss off?? It's true!!

    Join us as we dive (ha!) into the Swans of Avon.

    Happy New Year!!!

    2024 is going to be A LOT here is the US of A, so we thought we'd make ourselves happy right out of the gate by discussing those characters in the canon that we are drawn to (for various and assorted reasons)

    Who are yours???
