Knight of the Burning Pestle 101

This week we bring you not one but TWO guest experts to tell us why our tepid feelings about Beaumont's Knight of the Burning Pestle are just plain wrong, Emily Lathrop and Sawyer Kemp. Emily and Sawyer jump right in and not only deliver hot takes about Pestle, they also give us the goods in our Happy Hour and Gossip segments, and grace us with their high theatricality in A Taste of Text. Think a play within a play within a play is just too complicated to produce? Think again!

Here’s what we recommended in our Happy Hour segment:

• Dug Days on Disney+

• Bitch Magazine’s access series https://www.bitchmedia.org/article/access-issue-intro 

• Midnight Mass on Netflix

• Spencer

• Red re-record

• Gender Reveal podcast

• Final Fantasy 14

Here’s what we featured in our ShakesBubble Gossip segments:

• Check out the awesome things happening at Woolly Mammoth Theatre in DC (aka Emily’s day job)

• Watch out for Sawyer’s upcoming piece in The Shakespeare Bulletin!
