About Chekhov's Whatever

Playwright Anton Chekhov famously said, "Never place a loaded rifle on stage if it isn't going to go off." In other words, every detail must be relevant and every setup should have a payoff. Thus, the narrative principle of Chekhov's Gun was born, but it isn't always a gun! Chekhov's Whatever is a podcast where host Meg Mezeske and guests watch a movie and try to predict what role Chekhov's Gun will play.
