A Star Is Born

It's a new era for this podcast, although the only things that really change are our name, our logo and our theme music. The first episode of "Have You Ever Seen" and our first show in 2023 looks at Bradley Cooper's musical love story, A Star Is Born. Cooper gives his directorial debut an intimate documentary-like feel and the whole film comes off as more real than almost any traditional musical ever has. He's the actor playing a singer and Lady Gaga is the singer who's asked to carry a movie. She has tremendous chemistry with the Coops. This film is often emotionally devastating, which makes sense considering the themes of addiction, tragic love and suicide. So for the love of Sam (Elliott), stop stealing your big brother's voice and find your own as our 482nd episode takes you into the world of A Star Is Born.   Sparkplug Coffee's 20% discount continues to be available.
