Folks! The great Jeb Lund (@Mobute), the OTHER host of the delightful It's Christmastownpodcast with he and David Roth, stops by to interrogate the poisoned faux-macho nightmare that is the Adam Sandler-starring remake of THE LONGEST YARD. I gleefully relish the opportunity to reference the who's who of bizarre mid-2000s roster of cameos, from pro wrestlers (Stone Cold Steve Austin! Goldberg! Kevin Nash! The Great Khali!) to weird ESPN/sports media people (Dan Patrick! Sean Salisbury! Michael Irvin! Chris Berman! Peter King! Jim Rome!) to just all manner of random athletes whose names star with B! (Brian Bosworth! Bill Romanowski! Bob Sapp!) Also D12 for some reason!
We have a blast discussing the film soulless and borderline inappropriate attempts to emulate and launder the gritty original film, Adam Sandler's hilariously unbelievable role as an NFL league MVP and the reviling bigotry of the Happy Madison style. We have SO MUCH FUN.
