127 - Shock Treatment

Jeremy is joined again by author and podcaster Jason Kruppa to examine the 1981 satirical musical Shock Treatment, an "equal" to The Rocky Horror Picture Show sharing its creative team of Richard O'Brien and Jim Sharman and starring Cliff DeYoung, Jessica Harper, Patricia Quinn, Ruby Wax, Charles Gray and Barry Humphries. In this pursuit, they cover such subjects as normcore values, American geography, unlikely screen romances and Britain's most-missed comedian.
