Summary
After hearing the good news (and a little not-so-good-news) after the November election, we listen to the freethinking Irving Berlin song "Pack Up Your Sins (And Go To The Devil in Hades)" 100 years after its 1922 debut on Broadway. Then we speak with playwright Marin Gazzaniga and qualitative researcher Linda LaScola, producers of the new off-Broadway play "The Unbelieving," about clergy who no longer believe in God.
