About this listen
In this episode, we explore the noisy roots of Hullabaloo, from hunting cries and Shakespearean chaos to lullabies and 18th-century satire. Along the way we meet Smollett’s character in The Adventures of Sir Launcelot Greaves, where the word first appears as “hollo-ballo.” We explore how comedy and music can soothe chaos, how satire and melody made sense of a messy 1760s and 1960's world, and why we’re still surrounded by our own modern-day hubbub, hurly-burly, and hullabaloo. A funny, thoughtful episode that ends with the art of surviving noise.
