    • ​🧙 A show-stealing White Witch with zero chill
    • ​🐿️ Beavers with British accents and deeply confusing face prosthetics

  • Ep. 38: Men in Tights, Mel Brooks & the Gen Z Perspective (with David Green)
    May 1 2025

    How do you explain a 1993 spoof film about Robin Hood to a Gen Z musician? You don’t—you just invite him to watch it with you. In this episode, Jeff and Josue are joined by special guest David Green, who brings his 23-year-old perspective to the Mel Brooks cult classic Robin Hood: Men in Tights. Is it absurd? Yes. Is it quote-worthy? Absolutely. Is it dated? Let’s just say… we’re still quoting it decades later.


    From anachronism-filled gags to Blinkin’s underrated brilliance, we unpack the parody, the pop culture legacy, and why even our kids were laughing (and occasionally very confused).


    Also in this episode:
    • The Middle Ages… or Not: A game of modern intrusions
    • Dave Chappelle’s breakout role (and perfect timing)
    • Robin’s accent, Cary Elwes’ smirk & THAT chastity belt
    • Is this the most rewatchable spoof of our childhoods?

    Apr 24 2025

    Before we don our... well, you'll find out soon enough — Jeff and Josue launch this spoof-packed mini-sode with “Quote Me Like One of Your French Parodies”, a ridiculous quiz featuring movie quotes, Shakespearean drama, and deeply questionable impressions.
