About the Show

Hosts

Have you ever found youself insisting "the book was better"? We're here to tell you why you're right... or wrong.

 

Join us, Pippa Russell and KJ Minzner, as we give our hot takes on the best and worst of media adaptations. From Shakespeare to Elle Woods, we try our best to answer one question: Did it Adapt, or did it Die?
