À propos de cet audio

 Scott Kurland loves musicals. Lillian "Lilz" Martin does NOT love musicals. Thus Scott has made it his goal to expose Lilz to movie musicals in an effort to find ones that connect with her. Sometimes it works. (Mostly not.) Share in their mutual frustration on Hell Is A Musical, available wherever podcasts can be found.Copyright Zero Science Art

    061 - The Muppet Movie ("I Miss My Pudding") (w/ Danielle Brown)
    Nov 25 2025
    The Muppet Movie is a 1979 musical road comedy, and the feature film debut of The Muppets, Jim Henson's famed ensemble of puppet characters. Produced by Henson himself, the film was directed by James Frawley and written by Muppet Show writers Jerry Juhl and Jack Burns, and followed the origin story of the puppet troupe as Kermit The Frog travels across the country to make it big in Hollywood, meeting a cavalcade of friends along the way. The film starred Henson and Muppet ensemble players like Frank Oz, Jerry Nelson, Richard Hunt, and Dave Goelz, with human performances by Austin Pendleton and time-defying legend and cryptozoological enigma Charles Durning, a plethora of cameos from the likes of Dom DeLuise, Madeline Kahn, Steve Martin, Mel Brooks, and many more, and featured a soundtrack by Kenneth Ascher and Paul Williams. (Mr. Sex himself!) The Muppet Movie was a major commercial and critical success, and was deemed culturally significant by the Library of Congress in 2009.

    On a new episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott close out #HotDurnAutumn with a screening of The Muppet Movie, joined by special guest and friend of the pod Danielle Brown. Join them for flawless Miss Piggy imitations, stentorian renditions of "America The Beautiful", and one last marveling at the gloriousness of Charles Durning in his endless quest to finally git that frawrgg.

    060 - The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas ("In 1921 We Finally Got Buttermilk") (w/ Jenna Sokalski)
    Nov 10 2025
    The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas is a 1982 musical comedy film based on the stage musical of the same name. Directed by Colin Higgins, it followed the "Chicken Ranch" brothel located in Lanville County, widely accepted and traditionally beloved by the small town of Gilbert, but faced with closure upon its discovery by a TV morality watchdog. The cast featured Dolly Parton, Burt Reynolds, Dom DeLuise, Jim Nabors, and the singularity-altering, reality-warping presence otherwise known as Charles Durning. It was a major box office hit upon its release, and an Academy Award nomination for Durning, despite only being in the film for one scene.

    On this episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott are joined by return guest, burlesque artist, and declared Dolly Parton expert Jenna Sokalski for a viewing of The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas, and take in the sights, sounds, and oddly kitschy and polished vibes for a movie about a brothel. Join them as Jenna worships at the altar of patron saint Dolly, Lilz does a little side-step, and Scott gets really really annoyed. All the while Charles Durning delights everything in sight, as if he could do any less.

    059 - O Brother, Where Art Thou? ("Hey Moe, I Peed On My Shoe")
    Sep 19 2025
    O Brother, Where Art Thou? is a satirical comedy-drama musical film released in 2000, written, produced, and directed by The Coen Brothers. The film starred George Clooney, John Turturro, Tim Blake Nelson, Holly Hunter, John Goodman, and CHARLES DURNING in a 1930s Mississippi setting. In which a trio of escaped convicts travel across the American South in search of a supposed buried treasure, as Clooney attempts to re-connect with his divorced wife and children. The story was heavily influenced by Preston Sturges' film Sullivan's Travels, while also borrowing loosely from Homer's epic Greek poem The Odyssey, and featured a backdrop of period folk music, produced and arranged by T-Bone Burnett, and featured performances by Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris, Ralph Stanley, John Hartford, and numerous others. The film was a major box office success in its time, earned major critical praise for its sharp writing and gorgeous autumnal aesthetics, while its soundtrack swept the 44th annual Grammy Awards.

    On a rare, guest-free episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott take in a viewing of O Brother, Where Art Thou? and are thoroughly delighted. (Not to give away the ending of the podcast.) Join them as they ruminate on ancient brands of hair cream, point out innumerable Big Lebowski references that are totally there, engage in time-honored bouts of fisticuffsmanship, and bask in the majesty of CHARLES DURNING.
