On this episode, I talk to my friend Jake about George Handel's opera Agrippina. It's a long-winding story of politics, betrayal, love and lotsa scheming (my favorite!). Taking place during the Roman Empire, we follow along as a broad cast of characters including the Emperor Claudius and the titular character the Empress Agrippina pursue their heart's desires. We discuss how it's similar to The Bachelor/Bachelorette (and how it's not), and whether or not these characters are good or bad.
