Blooms & Barnacles Richard and Gilbert and Edmund and Will
What if the Shakespeares were really a bunch of crumb-bums?
Topics in this episode include Shakespeare’s brothers Gilbert, Richard, and Edmund, which ones Stephen thinks were bad brothers and which were good brothers, whether Shakespeare turned his brothers into villains in his plays, Anne Hathaway’s relationship to her brothers-in-law, why Shakespeare’s brothers never married, Gilbert and Richard’s criminal records, whether Gilbert traveled to London to see As You Like It, Edmund’s attempt to become an actor, which one was Shakespeare’s favorite brother, wrastlin’, brotherly incest and psychoanalysis, Stephen’s owned disappeared brother Maurice, and justice for Mr. Best.
