About this episode

The Best Picture Cast gang discusses Shakespeare's Hamlet with special guest Adam St John.

SO it has come to this. The Best Picture Cast gang takes on Shakespeare. Kieran is joined by Grant, Artie, and Jay, as promised 4 years ago when the same team tackled The Lion King. This time we"re getting all 1948 with Podcast legend SLO (Sir Lawrence Olivier). Chaos ensues. We also welcome in special guest Adam St John later in the pod to bring in some sanity and academia, as he is no stranger to the text. Buckle up for a wild ride.
