Episode 219 – Hamilton’s Ghost

What this episode covers

This week, Anne and Bill are joined by the ghost of Alexander Hamilton, who sits in to give his opinion about the musical based on his life, the BOOK about the musical about his life, and Anne’s dreams about political upheaval + sexy badgers. Also this week: the (great) new Ratchet & Clank PS4 game, The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Day of the Tentacle and the surprisingly-informative JAS Townsend & Sons historical re-enactors’ catalogue. In The Geek Week News In Review: The Doctor Strange trailer, the new Japanese Godzilla trailer, will the new Star Trek be a seasonal anthology?, who are Rey’s parents?, the potential horror of a live-action Pokemon movie, Hollywood’s attempt to whitewash (and then yellow-face) the Ghost in the Shell movie, and Andrew Jackson getting booted off the $20 bill. Intro: Alexander Hamilton – Lin-Manuel Miranda Break: Grapefruit Moon – Tom Waits Outro: A Good Man Is Hard To Find – Tom Waits
