Florence Foster Jenkins
from Pitney & Amelia's Bitchen Boutique Hosted by Pitney and Amelia
Who is Florence Foster Jenkins? Your new muse, that's who! Learn about this fascinating woman who sang her heart out despite being rather terrible at it, who became the toast of New York during the days of Toscanini and Caruso, and who inspired a movie that would earn Meryl Streep her 20th Oscar nomination. Hear about the world of ladies' clubs, tableaux vivants, and the scourge of syphilis. But most of all, hear a voice quite unlike anything you've ever experienced. And while we're at it, we review the movie and the performances of Meryl, Hugh Grant, and Simon Helberg, too. Because it's all SO GOOD. Dance like no one is watching, love like you've never been hurt, and SING LIKE FLORENCE FOSTER JENKINS AT CARNEGIE HALL! We love you for listening! Please take a moment to rate and review us!

Tweet at us at @bitchenboutique! Who the heck are Pitney and Amelia? A gay guy and his fat friend talking about everything! We've got over 30 years of stories to share about stuff we love, stuff that annoys us, people we've known, places we've been, and things we've seen. Geeky, silly, and always opinionated. NAMES ARE CHANGED TO PROTECT THE GUILTY! We may be awful, but we're right! New episodes every other Friday. Recorded close enough to Austin, Texas to help with their weirdness factor.
