37: Tom Stoppard wants you to know that he read a book

NOTE: this episode has content advisories. See below the description for time stamps.

We've got the whole kit and caboodle for you this week, wherein both the kit and the caboodle are largely about *~*the theatre*~*

That's right: tune in for discussions about Angels in America, how much Amy and Dylan hate Stoppard, a revisiting of CATS the movie the musical, theatre trying to be TV (and why it isn't and shouldn't), Falsettos, Dylan's failed foray into trying to teach Shakespeare to eighth graders, and, uh.... how Old Testament God is basically a teenage magician.

Oh, of course: we also figure out how pinball it all is.
