Ep. 53: "That Thing You Do!" 1996
Episode description
Beloved Listeners, we are back, stuck in the house, spiraling mentally, and better than ever! The Broadway Babies are interrupting your regularly scheduled social media scrolling to honor a very special creative who left us too soon: THE Adam Schlesinger. Join us in a special episode covering the 1996 teen band comedy (this is a made-up genre) “That Thing You Do” featuring Schlesinger’s ear worm of a title song that kept our toes tapping each time we heard it. Alex and Daisha wish all of their listeners health and happiness as we all cope with the effects of COVID-19 around the world. Stay safe and healthy, and they hope their goofy asses can bring a little levity into your lives during these heavy times.
