As usual for our final episode this season, we’re diving into the Tony Awards! We try to predict all 26 categories, while also giving our picks for what we would choose to award, and we get a chance to discuss plays and revivals which we don’t cover in our regular season episodes. So hit play and we’ll tell you who to watch out for on Sunday night!
Because this is a long episode, there are chapter markers for you to use (assuming your podcast player supports them).
