Was reminded of this quote from King Lear today - quite tempted to pop it into my show “Legitimate Concerns” at some point just so I feel like my English degree wasn’t entirely wasted. Might need a bit more of a punchline though

As to the legitimate: fine word,--legitimate! Well, my legitimate, if this letter speed, And my invention thrive, Edmund the base Shall top the legitimate. I grow; I prosper: Now, gods, stand up for bastards!

OK, you’re the one with the English degree, but are you sure all those words are in the right order?

Enjoyed the show today Matt, good stuff 👍 sorry for making you think you had a stroke. You had a Legitimate Concern I think!
