It’s a Keat/Pete episode! This week we’re talking the recent election “controversies” surrounding Chappell Roan & Taylor Swift, whether celebrities & artists are obligated to share political opinions, if you can separate art from the artist, & we spend some time honoring Gavin Creel, a theatre legend who passed away far too young.
