Listen "The Gay Divorcee"
Episode Synopsis
It’s time to go back! We’re starting the year off by going back 90 years and covering the winners at the 7th Academy Awards in 1935, beginning with The Gay Divorcee which won Best Song. This musical was the second of many collaborations between Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire, but it also features a diverse cast of overbearing aunts, bumbling lawyers, and concertina-playing racist stereotypes! Listen along as we dance the Continental and try to recap a plot so bizarre it reduces us to befuddled single syllable noises on multiple occasions.
