About this episode
This episode offers a SASF smorgasbord:
- Is Nancy Drew healthy soul food for a teenager?
- The guys discuss syndicate writing such as Nancy Drew, Tom Swift, and the Hardy Boys.
- Also on this episode: Why theater is so often gay, why Broadway is boutique, and why Shakespeare isn't a counterexample.
- ... with a chaser of why you should still, probably, be writing and directing plays (on your way to making a movie).
