Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982)


Listen Later

What happens when George watches an 80s sex comedy? If Porky's was any indication... well let's hope Porky's isn't any indication. Fast Times at Ridgemont High is a critically-lauded nostalgia trip for young and old alike... but will it pass muster with George? And will Nicolas Cage manage to derail his enjoyment? They certainly don't make them like this anymore.

Will George recognize any of the numerous famous actors who made their debut in this indie classic? If Travis loves this movie so much, why doesn't he marry it? Will Dan ever hear "Somebody's Baby" the same way again? Or is he stuck Running on Empty? These Days, you just never know. But you can know... tune in today!
