For the third week of February Flops, the Johns take a look at a show that may not have been a flop... had it premiered 20 years earlier. While discussing Jerry Herman's maligned show "Mack and Mabel" - the pair get into the state of Broadway in the 1970s, some of the printed criticism of the show, and the orchestration choices for this misplaced Golden Age musical.

Music and lyrics by Jerry Herman
