Less than a day.

0

136.405 - 148.278 Joanna Robinson

Thank you so much to the Bad Babies. You guys rule. I have been getting messages from people being like, hey, man, can you release more tickets? I've heard it's like a fire code issue, which is why we can't. It's not up to us, ultimately. It's not up to us.

0

Chapter 6: How does the music influence Lestat's character development?

148.298 - 152.103 Mallory Rubin

Yeah. We have the space that we have. Yeah. But, you know, anyone can buy a ticket to the game.

0

152.143 - 159.053 Joanna Robinson

Yes, you could be near us. You can be in the same stadium watching the same baseball game. And you can still see Mallory throughout the first pitch. You can still see the first pitch.

0

159.073 - 164.641 Mallory Rubin

You can enjoy some Boogs barbecue, which I'd highly recommend. Yeah. The live show itself. Sold out? Sold out.

Chapter 8: What themes of loneliness and silence are explored in this episode?

186.874 - 204.584 Joanna Robinson

We are discussing this episode informed by The Vampire Lestat and Queen of the Damned. And I don't know why the book is here. It just was in my bag. And so here it is. Wonderful. I've still yet to read a page. Informed by, will we make errors? We will, and we'll talk about that in a second.

0

205.025 - 233.18 Joanna Robinson

No major book spoilers until a dedicated book spoiler section, which is actually fairly light in this episode this week. That's all I have to say about that. Should we go now to our opening snapshot? Let's do it. We have a really robust mailbag. We got a ton of emails from listeners. A lot of them were like, hey, Joanna, you're so dumb. Gabrielle is Italian in the books, which she is.

0

233.981 - 253.225 Joanna Robinson

My defense, which I explained to you, is that the audiobook I'm listening to, they're definitely doing a French accent for some reason, but she is Italian. Does her accent still need to sound like this? I don't think so, but that's where we are. We did an interesting email about that, about... The accent among many other things.

0

254.126 - 276.728 Joanna Robinson

Our listener Camille wrote in to say in terms of like Lestat's creative storytelling, right? Because, you know, we're listening to Lestat recount this story via the Failures Project to someone in their gilded bathtub. That's right. I guess. Ideal. Really? Gilded? Like gold, like gilded bathtub?

0

276.948 - 284.244 Mallory Rubin

I mean, I just, I'm a bath enthusiast, as you know. But I don't know that I want a gilded bathtub. I'll try anything. Okay.

284.264 - 287.331 Joanna Robinson

At least once. Yeah, sounds good. You like a clawfoot or no?

287.463 - 290.507 Mallory Rubin

It wouldn't be my personal style choice for my home.

290.587 - 290.787 Joanna Robinson

Yeah.

290.847 - 293.61 Mallory Rubin

But at like a luxurious hotel, perhaps a castle.
