But he introduced me to musical comedy.
Justine MeganGUEST
37:07
So he introduced me to Tim Minchin and Weird Al Yankovic and all these kind of artists.
Róisín IngleHOST
37:11
How cool.
Justine MeganGUEST
37:12
And I'd give him my iPod to put music on because he wouldn't let me use those websites myself when I was a teenager, which is fair.
Justine MeganGUEST
37:18
So he would upload the music and he'd always upload like a little surprise on it.
Justine MeganGUEST
37:22
So there'd be Tim Minchin, I'd be like, what's this? But I loved it.
Justine MeganGUEST
37:25
And then for my 19th birthday, he got me tickets to see Tim Minchin live.
Justine MeganGUEST

Michael ShermerHOST
38:52
Reminds me of Tim Minchin's, um, uh, line about, uh, what do you, uh, uh, so love and evidence.
Michael ShermerHOST

What do you call love without evidence? Stalking.

Tim Minchin and Millie Aycock 'cause I would just be like, "Oh, I wanna do that."

Gregory GeorgeHOST

Martin CallaghanGUEST
26:44
Maybe Tim Minchin because of course him and Matthew, they're very close of course, 'cause of Matilda.
Gregory GeorgeHOST
26:50
Yeah.
Martin CallaghanGUEST
26:50
But I think maybe they would need to rewrite it, uh, certainly a little bit.
Gregory GeorgeHOST
27:14
[laughs]
Martin CallaghanGUEST
27:15
Yeah.
Martin CallaghanGUEST
27:15
And like I say, if Tim Minchin got his hands on it, I think it could be something rather special.
Gregory GeorgeHOST
27:19
Yeah.
Laura MoleHOST
38:50
That's so interesting.
Laura MoleHOST
38:52
There's a comedian who does like, she's a bit like, I suppose, the female Tim Minchin she's described as, and she's an Australian person who writes funny songs and plays the piano.
Laura MoleHOST
39:06
I love her.
Laura MoleHOST
39:08
Yeah.

On the 29th of February 2012, the RSC announced the show would transfer to Broadway in the spring of 2013.
Francesca BindiHOST
53:48
It would still be set in England despite initial pressure for the show to be Americanised.
Francesca BindiHOST
53:54
However, I think Tim Minchin did actually make some changes for the American audiences that were significant.
Francesca BindiHOST
54:00
For example, he had to cut the lyric density and fix the vowel sounds on certain songs and certain words and names.
Jamie KilsteinGUEST
24:23
So I never wanted to talk about this.
Jamie KilsteinGUEST
24:25
And this hero of mine who helped bring me this guy, Tim Minchin, you know, I told him I was like, again, done with stand up.
Jamie KilsteinGUEST
24:34
That's the other thing the show kind of has to do with like with this loss of community, like Robin Williams mentored me and he was kind of a one person community, which only he can pull off.
Jamie KilsteinGUEST
24:42
And so then when he died, dealing with that and quitting comedy because not feeling – like feeling like I don't belong in that community and – yeah so i didn't want to write about the show um because i was like why would i want to relive this thing i've been dodging and i don't know how to write about the affair without being an or seeming defensive or you know doing the the anti-woke thing uh entirely or whatever and um and so i told him no and then so
Charles FirthHOST
10:10
Do it at scale.
Charles FirthHOST
10:11
