  • Ephemera 22: Gold Diggers of 1933
    2024/06/14
    It's our second anniversary show! And what a show it is. After Take Me Out to the Ball Game, we decided we needed to take a little break from MGM in the forties, so we turned our eyes to Warner Brothers in the 1930s. Vive la différence! We've got sex! We've got frank discussions of poverty! We have explicitly Jewish characters! New, new, new! Of course, we do have plenty of old involved, Busby Berkeley, Guy Kibbee, Harry Warren, all our friends from our journeys together, but in fresh contexts, with plenty of surprises along the way! Anyway, this is literally one of the best considered, most important musicals ever made, so it just made sense to save it for our big occasion. Gold Diggers. It's really, really good.

  • Episode 23.2: Take Me Out to the Ball Game
    2024/05/24
    Welcome to our triumphant return to a movie that is...less than triumphant. It's 1949's Take Me Out to the Ball Game, a successful film that most people involved would rather forget. However, there's still interesting stuff here! We have Busby Berkeley's last credited directorial effort. We have what might be Frank Sinatra's queerest performance. We even have Esther Williams! Sort of. Less so than you'd think. We have all of that, and we're only one podcast.

  • Episode 23.1: Take Me Out to the Ball Game
    2024/05/10
    And we're back! Join Harry and Angela for our most sports centric episode ever. That being said, if you know anything about sports, maybe don't listen, because we are officially clueless in this particular field. Or maybe scratch that. Maybe the entertainment is in watching us fumble about in the dark about America's past time. Despite all that, come for the comradery and fellow feeling, stay for the random screaming of Angela's new cat. We got rid of most of it, but there's still cat in there!
