103: Joel Grey & Cabaret (with Dallin Agatone)

Today on MuppetWatch, the podcast is joined by friend and filmmaker Dallin Agatone to discuss Tony and Oscar winner Joel Grey! Then we discuss the film that won Grey his Oscar, Cabaret, and find our opinions split.

Topics of discussion include waiters at the Hotel for Dogs, the personality shift of Sam Eagle, being an underdog versus just being pitiful, cutting edge 70s video technology, and how literally we are meant to take the Kit Kat Klub as representative of Weimar Germany.
