Episode notes
What do Oscar Wilde and the La brothers have in common? Nothing, of course, since Wilde was at least successful at one time and the La brothers never were. But the twins wrangle with an interesting quote from Wilde about the tragedy of getting what you want. They also sift through responses from listeners who've dealt with the compounded humiliation of being rejected for artistic work they wouldn't be getting paid for in the first place.
