Will Bethenny the Orc find love in this episode of D & We?
Trio. Monoscene. Genre. Shortform. Shakespeare.
Thompson plays host to a Shakespearian Fantasy Shortform we'd never done nor set up.
Bela plays 3 characters back to back, bantering with himself.
Camila grunts in approval. And always does the underscoring.
Listen to commentary in part two next week if you're curious about our raw sound and how our episodes "really go." We don't plan or pause. i-i takes pride in being "fully improvised, one shot, start to finish, without editing for content."
