The Summer of Unhinged Musicals continues with perhaps one of the most unhinged movies we have ever covered, period. For your pleasure (?), we present 2017’s Something Like Summer, an adaptation of a self-published absurdly long young adult novel that was for some improbable reason turned into an absurdly long movie musical. Blurbs really can’t do this one justice, but suffice to say there’s a lot of gay angst, a lot of questionable creative choices, and a lot of mind-numbingly bizarre plot points. Join Leigh, Brendan, and Chris as they team up yet again with past guest Faith to just tackle this mess beat-by-beat. And yes, we’re all a little surprised that this is our longest episode ever too, but there’s just an unending river of insanity to cover here. Naturally, such a movie necessitates both a cocktail AND baked goods, so we really are covering all our bases here.
