012 Funny Girl

This is one of those rare books that both tells profound truths and can be consumed in a single 24-hour period. This episode begins with Victoria claiming there is little to say about this book besides the fact that it is laugh-out-loud funny, and it ends on a serious discussion of the nature of high art versus low art, so clearly this book has range. Join us as we follow “Funny Girl” Sophie Straw and her band of misfits through the perils of making a television show in the 1960s.
