In This Essay

"In This Essay," the podcast wherein we swap takes and hone in one lucky piece of media we've chosen to analyze. Like a book club but for everything (and everyone). This week we discuss Anaïs Mitchell's Hadestown. A musical behemoth of lyricism, inspired set design and deeply emotional, satisfying storytelling. Make media literacy cool again!

This week we reintroduce ourselves. Risen from the ashes like a phoenix we emerge as "In This Essay," the podcast wherein we swap takes and hone in one lucky piece of media we've chosen to analyze (in our extremely unprofessional and untrained capacities) for the week.

When our false start was more interesting than our show... we knew what must be done. But for now there are twice as many stars in the sky, enjoy the talk of scary nightjar mouths, the war of the genital graffiti, and why bananas are actually the fundamental element of the univers...

Still not an episode with the premise we promised, but we had to do a 2025 bingo card to start off the year. Now we sit back and wait for BINGO!

We guess what ‪ @TheMcElroyFamily ‬ will title the year 2025 in the first episode of their podcast, My Brother My Brother and Me this year. We're in their heads! Next year they should do an episode guessing what we're gonna guess that they'll guess.
