We get DEEP talking about Little Miss Sunshine
25 Jul 2023
01:20:43
You do what you love, and f*ck the rest.
Hey guys! Enjoy our podcast where Chris and Altaf discuss Little Miss Sunshine, a 2006 classic directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris and written by Michael Arndt.
This is one of Chris' favorite movies, and it was a real treat to share our discussion with you guys. We talk about Chris' personal memories with the movie, every actor's incredible performance (particularly from Alan Arkin, Abigail Breslin, Steve Carell, and Paul Dano), the deeper themes of nihilism and subjective happiness, and the ways this film hits you like a freight train as an adult.

Airplane!

Joey, have you ever been in a... in a Turkish prison?
Hey there, nice dudes! Thanks for stopping by and tuning into our podcast. Today we cover a very very highly requested movie for us to react to, Airplane! directed by David Zucker, Jerry Zucker, and Jim Abrahams, also starring Leslie Nielsen!
We discuss our hesitance to cover this movie in podcast form, our subtle regret of watching it and not reacting to it on video, along with what we consider to be perfect spoof movies (or what Chris calls "f*ck you movies"). Then we get lots of the giggles out and cover our favorite and underappreciated quotes and jokes!
