The Hutch is back! John Hutchinson, who was on Episode 57 and 103, is a returning guest and is meeting Norman Gee for the first time. Hutch was a longtime member of Eastenders Repertory Company, a member of the men’s singing group Stagebridge and just celebrated his 85th birthday. In this show, we get mostly into current events, especially the Chappelle show and the focus on being culturally appropriate as we creatives bring our creations to the stage or to the big screen. We also talk about the effects of cancel culture and Norman talks about his experience doing Pericles.
