Listen in to find out the benefits of getting rejected dozens of times.

This bonus episode details and deconstructs innovations in the Broadway show, Water for Elephants. The show is based on a movie which is based on a book.
I never read the book or saw the movie because they depict cruelty to animals. I wasn't sure about seeing this show, but they worked the "animals" in perfectly.
I hope you enjoy the episode, and if you see the show, let me know what you think.
