The hills are alive and we couldn’t be happier about it! In this episode, we explore the beloved 1964 movie musical The Sound of Music and uncover the fascinating true story behind the von Trapp family. From their life in Austria during the rise of the Nazi regime to their journey as a traveling musical troupe in America, the real von Trapps led a life of resilience and harmony that’s both similar to and different from the Hollywood version.
