Ebony pulls this double wide story right into the gas station of our collective minds! It's a truck metaphor...or is that a semi-truck metaphor?...ha! But Pamela, why?!

Pamela drowns the listener in details on this episode about Dude (the Highway Life), written by the same creative team who brought us Hair. Though that's where any comparisons may stop. This is a part of our Adela Holzer series, so make sure to listen to Episode 111 beforehand, to make sure you're all caught up!

Ebony tells the story of Adela Holzer the lead Producer of the notorious musical Senator Joe. Adela Holzer became a fascinating character after we completed our episode of Senator Joe during the first season of the podcast. Since Pamela and Ebony are also both true crime junkies and that is one of the things that got them to begin this podcast, we thought we would take a little detour into the scandal side of our podcast and tell the story behind this prolific theatrical criminal.

We've been very vocal about the 'isms' that are rampant in this world, and more specifically in theatre. This episode will discuss that again as it relates to anti-semitism, the erasure of our history, and the damage it can do. While both Ebony and Pamela try to be sensitive while talking about these issues, we also understand they can be triggering, but feel they are important enough to sit in a bit of discomfort for the sake of HOPE and HEALING.
