The Simpsons: A Streetcar Named Marge

On the season three premiere, Jon and Matt discuss the classic Simpsons episode where Marge is cast as Blanche Dubois in a musical version of A Streetcar Named Desire. From passive aggressive directors, to non-existent fight calls, to leads that are cast solely on their looks, this episode goes deep into life in the community theater. Also we take a detour to the weird world of Ayn Rand when Maggie is forced to attend an objectivism-inspired daycare (Maggie is a total ninja). 

Om Podcasten

"Spirits and Chat with Jon and Matt" is a podcast hosted by real-life married couple Jonathan Emerson and Matthew Pohlman. Each week they watch an episode of a classic television show where a character is involved in a play (like the time Marge Simpson was in "Oh Streetcar!" or when Jackie Harris was an understudy to lead role in "Cyrano de Bergerac") and break down what the show got right and wrong about life in the theater.
