Episode description

Justin is the oldest brother on the My Brother, My Brother and Me podcast but is also a best-selling author, voice actor, and community theatre director. And he’s here with a show that rode the early-90s obsession with the late-60s to Tony glory!

Topics include: how Tommy is like Joseph from a protagonist standpoint, seeing the original Broadway production of Smokey Joe’s Cafe, the jauntiest song about molestation, and (weirdly) the State Farm’s Super Bowl commercial.
