Have you seen Hamilton, the musical? Or listened to the soundtrack eleventy billion times? Maybe scoured the internet for every #Ham4Ham clip you could find? Then this is the episode for you!
After a quick road trip to Chicago to see Hamilton on stage, I couldn’t quit gushing and analyzing and, let’s be honest, crying just a little bit about the show. So I got my friend Amy Clark (who also has been known to gush and analyze and cry about this thing) to talk about all the things on this week’s episode.
And head’s up! This supersized episode is also the final one of Season 1. Don’t worry! The Couch will be back in a few short weeks. Until then, don’t throw away your shot (get it? Hamilton reference?) and listen to episode #22. It just might blow you all away. (Hamilton reference. Again. CAN’T STOP, WON’T STOP.)
