Description

In this episode, we slip on our oversized sunglasses and dive into the new release The Naked Gun—yes, it’s back, and yes, it’s still gloriously ridiculous. Then it’s part one of our deep dive into the minds behind the madness: director David Zucker and the legendary ZAZ team. From Airplane! to the Naked Gun trilogy, we explore how they reshaped comedy with slapstick, satire, and a barrage of gags-per-minute. Finally, we pivot from spoof to squeak with a look at Nicolas Cage’s performance in G-Force, the only film where he voices a mole and still somehow channels existential angst.
