'Grease' is the word, it's got groove it's got feeling, and so does this in-depth podcast about the 40-years-and-counting worldwide phenomenon. Why does this weird movie (and it's deeply weird) stand the test of time? Easy: TRAVOLTA, SONGS, and KITSCH. And so many other reasons. So yes; we'll get into Sandy and Danny and the gang and the great performances from Didi Conn, Stockard Channing, and others, but we'll ALSO dive into the fascinating origin story of Grease as a counter-culture artifact springing out of Chicago's experimental theater scene. And we'll play all the iconic songs and comment upon them in a manner designed to make a fair-use argument for playing them.
