  • Episode 7: Taming of the Shrew - Act 5 Scenes 1 - 2
    2021/01/14

    We have arrived at the final episode of my journey reading The Taming of the Shrew! With Daniel Skinner as our guest host we maul over the epic (ly frustrating and infuriating) ending of TOTS.

     

    Featuring one of the most infuriating monologues I've ever written, we dive deep into the  P R O B L E M A T I C elements throughout the play. Cacophony ensues with all of our characters. We still love Tranio, still hate Petruchio. KATE WHY??? Lo and behold, the induction act ACTUALLY had a purpose. How does Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer get involved? Will Hayden be going to prison? 

     

    Listen in to find out!

    2020/12/12

    After a brief hiatus, Baffled by the Bard is barrelling to finish the Taming of the Shrew! In this episode we breakdown the last few scenes in Act 4 with our guest host, Jacqueline Silva, and boy do we get close to breaking down. We're starting to see ole' Billy Shakes wrap up this story with a nice little bow, and we feel certain ways about it. What's this??? Are we starting to hate Kate this late in the game? What would happen if the characters of iCarly were to put on Taming of the Shrew? How about Kanye West as Petruchio? Let's see if we can get Disney added onto the list of companies that could sue me. Gotta hit that play button to hear it all go down!

    I apologize for the wait on this episode as I've been transitioning to remote work and prioritizing this project and other creative endeavors! This is the next to last episode for Taming of the Shrew, and I plan to wrap up this first season before the start of the new year! Be on the lookout for that and thank you listeners for starting this awesome journey with me.

    2020/10/18

    We're back and taming our urge to punch Petruchio in the face! In today's episode we stumble through Act 4, scenes 1 and 2 with our fabulous guest host Lorena Cohea! Who could've guessed it, we still pretty much hate Petruchio....or do we? (The answer is yes, yes we do.) Why is he such a d-bag to his servants? Who in their right mind compares women to hawks? Will Hortensio ever find love again? What in god's name is Choler and Humors? Will I ever be able to keep up with all the Italian names? Only way you'll find out is by listening in!

    Teachers and weddings and priests, oh my! We rally on reading Taming of the Shrew with our guest host Ben Cohen on today's episode who has more than a few words to say about our boy Petruchio. Lucentio and Hortensio are neck and neck in their race to woo over the lovely Bianca.  We've finally made it to the tumultuous wedding of Kate and Petruchio, which goes off without a hitch......not! Petey is late and shows up drunk, priests were tackled, and Biondello is confused as ever. Does Kate get kidnapped? Is it cool to swear at a wedding? WHAT'S WRONG WITH PETRUCHIO!? Give it a listen and find out!

    2020/08/25

    We have a doozy of an episode here! The fantabulous Naomi Rose-Mock guest hosts with us today. Petruchio has entered the scene, and he comes in with a bang. We've got dueling disguised teachers for the Baptista household. Really, just a lot of disguised individuals....too many to count and follow if we're being honest. Sexy abacuses. Comparing Kate, Bianca, and their relationship as sisters. Double entendres galore! Does Daddy Baptista suck? (The answer: pretty much.) How are MATH, LANGUAGES, and MUSIC gonna help Hortensio and Lucentio woo Bianca? Can the irreverent Petruchio really woo the immovable Kate? WHAT DAY IS IT IN THE PLAY????? All of these topics and more, just waiting for you to hit that play button.

    2020/07/19

    We're finally biting into the meat of the main story of the titular shrew! Along with our guest host, Logan Foster, we dive headfirst into the essential characters of the play. A tumultuous courting situation. Love at first sight. The best scheming bromance you could ever dream of. Sick burns by crusty old suitors. And too many strange tangents to count (does your brain smell, why, and what does it have to do with Shakespeare?). All of this and more to be found in the new episode of Baffled by the Bard! Enjoy! Logan's insult credited to Shakespeare Insult Generator created by Barry Kraft, a new regular inclusion in every episode!

We’re kicking off the podcast with the hit romantic comedy The Taming of the Shrew, with the first ever guest host Claire Lord. They cover the strange induction act of the play and discuss its purpose and presence for the main storyline. Where’s Kate? Why is the 1% horrible for Christopher Sly? What does Shrek have to do with Taming of the Shrew? And why god why can’t Barthol’mew catch a break? This episode is a great start off, and filled with plenty of laughs and outrageous tangents. Enjoy!
