There's no argument that Rami Malek delivered an epic performance, but was the band's preference to "protect their legacy" to the detriment of viewers seeing more of the #FreddieMercury life story? We disagreed on the answer during this podcast, which led to a fun conversation that also included debate about the rock vs. disco scene in the 70s, fate & destiny in everyday people's lives, what made Sacha Baron Cohen walk away from the film prior to Rami Malek landing the role of a lifetime, the talent it takes to be a performer (even if you're blessed with a great singing voice) & much more! So, if you could possess any one talent or ability, what would YOU choose? Shouts to Chelsea Handler. #SexyGPS #ShootYourShot #DontStopMeNow   Support the podcast & check out our new website @ www.eandgpodcast.com   Our show is made possible because of our listeners & by far, the best way to support us (no matter how much you give) is by setting up a monthly donation through PayPal.
