"Mobituaries": "Drink to Thomas Paine!"

Alexander Hamilton isn't the only American Revolutionary figure to be feted by Broadway composers. As a special treat in his podcast "Mobituaries," Mo Rocca enlisted Tony-nominees Laurence O’Keefe and Nell Benjamin to pen a drinking song, "Drink to Thomas Paine!," which was performed at the New York City piano bar Marie’s Crisis, which stands on the very site of Paine's death in 1809.
