For centuries, Shakespeare has been widely accepted as the greatest writer in our language's history. For much of that time, maverick thinkers have argued that William Shakespeare didn't actually write his plays. One of those maverick thinkers is Mandy’s daughter, Bethany.

After the dust settles, the hosts explore the reasons why so many people feel compelled to doubt Shakespeare.
