The Mirror Has Two Faces with Bobby Finger & Lindsey Weber
Listen now
Description
If Yentl was about connecting with her absent father, and The Prince of Tides was about forgiving her difficult mother, The Mirror Has Two Faces is just about BARBRA! Who Weekly’s Bobby Finger and Lindsay Weber join us as we close out our Streisand series with her final film, a strange Frankenstein of a Judd Apatow, Albert Brooks, and Nora Ephron romcom.

Is Barbra Streisand actually lazy, as she claims she is? Do we have any listeners who keep snoballs in their drawers? Listen to Who?
