Phil's just seen it for the first time on Disney+ and we've invited guest and friend of the show Grant Youngsma on to chat with he and Jack about it.Spoilers abound so make sure you've seen the movie (or just don't care about the movie being spoiled). We get into it all - "papes", people getting "soaked", Christian Bale's singing voice, Robert Duvall's terrible acting, Medda, that awful trial (if you can call it that), as well as our favorite song and dance numbers.At the end, we talk about the true history of that time period and the various things that Teddy Roosevelt did for the great state of New York as well as our country.Write the show at [email protected] for listening!
