Romeo & Juliet (1597 Play) | Foolish Teens or True Love?

The bard is back on the pod with that new heat, this time coming straight outta Verona. In episode 374, join Luke Elliott & James Bailey as they talk about the poem that Shakespeare was adapting, debate the existence of "love at first sight," get real about soulmates, unlock some hints from the meter of the text, appreciate the blend of humor and drama, and finally ask whether the tragedy of their love is ultimately worth it.
