This week, the Johns talk about the 1966 musical "The Apple Tree" and look at how the show works as a series of three separate stories, but comes together under a common umbrella to make a complete show. They also discuss the greatness that is Alan Alda, and briefly get into the debate of cast album vs soundtrack.... well, John N. does; John M. rises above the foolishness.
