Tommy is known as \u201cThe Architect\u201d and I\u2019m telling you, the guy lives up to the title and then some. This week T.Kail unpacks a lot of the HamilTen celebrations and how they came to be, including how they landed on the decision to release the Hamilfilm in movie theaters, his profound experience with the original cast reuniting for the Tony Awards, and Leslie Odom Jr.\u2019s reprising Aaron Burr in Hamilton on Broadway.&amp;nbsp; Tommy also talks a lot about editing the Hamilton film (or as he calls it, his love letter to the original company) and how incredibly moving it was to watch it with them at the famous Delacorte Theater, under a full moon.&amp;nbsp; Plus, we gush about Freestyle Love Supreme and the episode ends on a very rare cliffhanger! I don\u2019t know if that\u2019s ever happened on the pod but I explain why at the end of the episode. It\u2019s nothing crazy, it\u2019s mostly a timing issue, but here we are! This episode was recorded in November of 2025 at WTF Media Studios in Manhattan and produced with Natalie Grillo from Any Moment Productions in collaboration with Meghan Miles.  #124: Thomas Kail \/\/ Part One (2018)  #125: Thomas Kail \/\/ Part Two (2018)  #230: Jonah Moran \/\/ #HamilFilm Editor \/\/ Part One  #231: Jonah Moran \/\/ #HamilFilm Editor \/\/ Part Two  #232: Jonah Moran \/\/ #HamilFilm Editor \/\/ Part Three Freestyle Love Supreme Freestyle Love Supreme on The Hamilcast Moondrunk - \u201cMy Words\u201d \/\/\/ Gillian's Website The Hamilcast on TikTok The Hamilcast on Instagram Join the Patreon Peeps ","author_name":"The Hamilcast: A Hamilton Podcast","author_url":"https:\/\/www.thehamilcast.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/39200740\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/e2b204\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/195970745"}
