S2E12 - Episode 20 - From Superbad to Superwurst

Season 2 · Episode 12

Monday, June 15, 2026 • Duration 01:18:00

Welcome back to Sightgeist! In this episode, Jimmy talks with Harry about Superbad, his pick from the Oscars predictions survey. They pair it with 2016's Sausage Party, featuring many of the same cast and crew. So why is one of these two a classic teen comedy while the other has aged like so much rancid meat?

Jimmy's Letterboxd

Harry doesn't have a Letterboxd, a fact for which you can bully him on our Discord server.

Thanks to Joe's band, Babe Froman, for the groovy jam that serves as our show music.
