Hi, I'm stage and stages Lin-Manuel Miranda and you're listening to The Hamilkast.

Bootsing, cut, sin, bussing.

Hello, friends. Welcome back to The Hamilkast. I'm Jillian. This week we're picking up where we

0:22.6

left off with Jordana Gronik of the End Peggy Tour. If you missed your first episode,

0:26.8

pause here and go check that out first. You'll hear about her life in Colorado,

2:06.2

theater running and treating the people who do theater. You said earlier that the whole

2:17.9

economic system is such a gatekeeping thing and I think that is like the first issue that we have.

2:26.8
