A Star Is Born (Josh's Version)
Episode description
Josh Gondelman and Jacquis Neal attempt to retell A Star Is Born (2018) from memory—no notes, no fact-checking, just vibes.
What You'll Hear:
Do You Remember?: Josh walks us through Bradley Cooper’s country crooner era, Lady Gaga’s meteoric rise, and the slow unraveling in between. There are Grammys, billboards, and at least one moment that makes you want to hide behind the couch.
Pillow Fort Problems: Before the heartbreak, the insults get oddly specific. May your pillow always be warm. May a bald eagle with insomnia perch outside your window. Sweet dreams.
Festival Feelings: A love letter to San Francisco, its aggressively vertical streets, and the kind of comedy festival that feels like a reunion. Plus, a pitch for the coziest live show imaginable.
