In this episode of 'Adaptation: The Book to Movie Podcast,' Nate and Chris discuss 'Animal Farm' by George Orwell; a foundational text in our understanding of modern politics -- or is it?

From the original 1954 animated film covertly funded by the CIA (!!!) to the most recent adaptation starring Seth Rogen, we discuss this story's strange path through history.

UP NEXT: 'Rebecca' by Daphne du Maurier

In this episode of 'Adaptation: The Book to Movie Podcast,' Nate and Chris discuss Lauren Weisberger's 'The Devil Wears Prada' and its film adaptation starring Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep.

They discuss what makes this story accessible despite being set in the world of high fashion, as well as what makes the movie a cultural touchpoint.

Chris and Nate are joined by returning guest Blair, as well as our good friend Ariel, to discuss the 2019 travesty of a film, Tom Hooper's 'Cats' -- famously based on the Andrew Lloyd Webber stage show, which is less well known for its original source material, a series of poems by T. S. Elliot.

Listen at your own risk - this brought out the goofiest of all of us! - to hear conversation about the movie's supposed plot, a smash or pass game, and many, many laughs.

UP NEXT: 'The Devil Wears Prada' by Lauren Weisberger & its film adaptation directed by David Frankel
