Ahhh crap! The Shakespeare unit is coming up and the teacher is gonna make us read aloud. I can't take it!! If this is you, we are here to make all that shit easier. Every week we will tackle some text, debunk some BS and show you all the smut that your teachers can't talk about. Don't understand that weird word? It's probably a dick joke. We'll point all those out (pardon the pun... no, don't... there will be lots of those too). So join us and find out WTF other people are laughing about. Who knows? You might even get to laughing too.

Season 2 Episode 18: Down wantons, down! King Lear Act 2
Lear finds his man in the stocks and finally has to face what his world has become. It ain't pretty. He ain't taking it well either. He might be having some mini strokes. He definitely calls his children bastards. That ain't good. A storm's a brewin'!
Follow us on TikTok! We promise it's fun!

Season 2: Episode 17 - Don't Screw the Messenger! King Lear Act 2
Best. Fucking. Insult. Speech. Ever!!!
A little background on messengers and what their responsibilities were - not what you think. Oswald represents Goneril and Kent represents Lear, and never the twain shall meet. Well, they meet, but it does NOT go well.
Then we have a discussion about the treatment of the insane back in the day. Also not ideal.

Season 2: Ep 16 Ear-Kissing Arguments, King Lear Act 2
Rumors. That's what ear-kissing arguments are. But it just sounds so much more sexy that way, right? Those are the kind of arguments that render fabulous make-up sex.
Rumors are spreading of war, but no one's sure between who. France and England? Cornwall and Albany? Either way, things are getting ugly in Lear's kingdom
-not-kingdom.

Season 2, Ep 14: Stiffy for Bastards, Lear Act 1
Edmund is a natural child because it's totally natural for horny old goatish men to drop trow and have at it with the serving wenches outside the kitchen door. Is to any wonder he's a little pissed?? Two killer speeches in this scene let you know exactly what's up with him!

Season 2, Ep 13: Slinging Some Dragon Dick, King Lear Act 1
King Lear is 80 years old. In Elizabethan times that was like being 120. He is not quite all there and has forgotten that his youngest daughter loves him the most. He wants to hear it in front of the whole court. Bad parenting at the least. It's a childish desire that will bring about his ruin. Stay tuned.
Meanwhile, we unfold some fun facts that will help you enjoy the play more as we go forward. Let us know what we missed! We'd love to have your input.
