Well I think it’s gonna be a long, long time before we watch a biopic this fun and fresh! Hello listeners, blast off with Alex and a Daisha into a new episode about "Rocketman," the 2019 musical biopic about the effervescent rock icon, Elton John! The Babies are discussing how the importance of ethical representation, abuse and addiction, and how the gorgeous fantasy elements changes the impact of what could have been a run-of-the-mill biopic. So wash your hands, take a seat, put on your electric boots and mohair suit, and enjoy the episode (which we'll be releasing on Thursdays now to better fit Alex's work schedule)!

Also, arrest the cops who murdered Breonna Taylor.

Where to watch: Hulu | Amazon

Songs:

  • “The Bitch Is Back” performed by Taron Egerton
  • “Crocodile Rock”
  • “Your Song”
  • “Rocket Man”

Music by Elton John and Bernie Taupin

Released by Virgin EMI Records

Show Notes:

  • The Laverne Cox clip Daisha was talking about is actually not a clip but in the documentary itself, which is here.
  • Elton’s Guardian tell-all
  • The costumesssss
  • Rolling Stone’s article on fact checking the obviously super-factual “Rocketman”
  • Elton in Kingsman 2 kicking ass and smashing guys' heads with pianos.
  • I guess Taron’s audition for Rocketman?
