For Episode 7, Jason, Sam and guest Craig MacNeil confront the cultural divide provoked by Rodney Dangerfield and his 1983 Brewster's Millions-alike comedy Easy Money.
Among the subjects up for discussion are the genius (?) of Rodney Dangerfield; how good a year the pizza guy at Ridgemont High had after everyone graduated; the merits of RC Cola and Panda Pops; the comic potential of precarious cakes, oh, and Jennifer Jason Leigh's part as Rodney Dangerfield's daughter.
Join us for this epic deconstruction of a near forgotten (and, in the UK, barely released) movie.
PS: Sam got the preview wrong at the end of this episode, Grandview USA is the September episode. Next month we'll be covering Girls of the White Orchid / Death Ride to Osaka with a very special guest.
