HORSE FEATHERS + MARX BROTHERS COUNCIL PODCAST LIVE
Directed by Norman Z. McLeod
. With Groucho Marx, Harpo Marx, Chico Marx, Zeppo Marx, Thelma Todd, David Landau. In one of his most riotous roles, Groucho plays the President of Huxley College, with Harpo his secret weapon in a football rivalry against Darwin University. Horse Feathers is among the Marx Brothers’ funniest and most scathing attacks on authority, featuring some of their greatest songs, including “I’m Against It” and “Everyone Says I Love You.” About the podcast: Founded in 2018, The Marx Brothers Council Podcast is easily the longest-running Marx Brothers podcast in the history of human civilization. Co-hosted by Matthew Coniam (whose books include The Annotated Marx Brothers and That’s Me, Groucho!) and Noah Diamond (author of Gimme a Thrill and Groucho in the first-ever revival of the Marxes’ I’ll Say She Is), and produced by Bob Gassel, the show has featured notable guests including Adam Gopnik, Elliott Gould, David Zucker, and Robert B. Weide. The podcast has also been a prime venue for the release of rarely heard Marx Brothers audio, including archival interviews with Groucho and rarities from the team’s radio career. In 2020, Vanity Fair included The Marx Brothers Council Podcast on its list of “Eight Great Movie Podcasts.” Learn more at marxbrotherscouncilpodcast.com.
