Spinal Tap is back, and I’m here to commit a potential crime against comedy history: I think Spinal Tap II: The End Continues might be even better than the original.
In this episode, I break down why the sequel works so well—how it honors the mockumentary chaos of This Is Spinal Tap while aiming the satire at something even funnier: legacy. The comeback. The nostalgia machine. The need to prove you’ve “still got it” when time is very politely asking you to sit down.
Jessica and I watched both movies this week, and I’m sharing the highlights, the big laughs, and the surprisingly sharp heart hiding underneath all that glorious rock-and-roll stupidity.
Team Original or Team Sequel? Listen and tell me which one wins for you.
