WHAR at the Gap Theater tonight for a screening of First Blood. If you've been following our series THE RAMBO OF ROME you know what an important moment this is for us...
WHAR WHAR WHAR
Up today, our most explicitly political episode ever: S4E6 "The Case Against Democracy", part of our series THE RAMBO OF ROME on Shakespeare's Coriolanus. In this episode we discuss Act 3, Scene 1, where the Roman populace draws "first blood" against their fascist war hero, and he tells them exactly what he thinks about representative government.
If you've never joined us, WHAR is a long-form podcast and is best listened to in complete seasons.
For those planning on tuning in to What Ho...A Rat!! Season 4: THE RAMBO OF ROME tomorrow, we suggest rewatching the Stallone film First Blood. This season, I'll be developing the thesis that it has meaningful parallels with Shakespeare's Coriolanus.
