Set in 1940s Hollywood, this comedic film noir mystery follows hardboiled private eye Ford Phillips and his feisty, fast-talking partner Fig Wineshine as they delve into the seedy underbelly of Tinsel Town while trying to solve the murder of famed novelist-turned-screenwriter F. Scott Fitzgerald. Featuring a coterie of wacky characters - including real actors and public figures from the time - and original musical numbers, The Case of The Greater Gatsby turns historical fiction and genre tropes into a twisty, hilarious romp.

Customer Reviews
The Radio Show you need
This is such a fun audio drama!! I love more Fig & Ford, the silly jokes, the songs - it’s a winner.
This was so funny that I had to figure out how to write a review
Long time podcast listener, first time reviewer. This show is hysterical. No words. Just listen. You’re welcome.
Sinead & Sean do it again!!
Quick, witty and laugh out loud goofy.
I don’t usually listen to scripted podcasts…but I’d never miss a shipwrecked masterpiece!
