The Fourth Adam Sandler Podcast episodes

  • Episode 10 Mr. Deeds

    A remake of a classic Frank Capra film, in which one Longfellow Deeds inherits a fortune from a long-lost uncle. Once again Adam Sandler fails to interrogate the dialectical materialist implications of his movies.

    1 hr 13 min
  • Episode 7 Big Daddy
    Another week, another exciting episode. Sonny Koufax is a layabout who wants nothing to do with society’s rules… until a little surprise shows up at his doorstep! How’s a total “dud” going to transition to being the ultimate “dad?”
    1 hr 4 min
  • Episode 5 The Wedding Singer
    The fifth episode of the Fourth Adam Sandler Podcast, in which the fellows discuss the much loved RomCom classic “The Wedding Singer.” Is it really that romantic though, or are we all just lost in a haze of lovesick 80s MTV classics, riding that nostalgia wave into a dayglo sunset…. Also discussed: what is nostalgia, and where may I get some?
    1 hr 10 min
  • Episode 4 Bulletproof
    A different kind of movie altogether. Does Bulletproof belong in the pantheon of classic buddy cop action films? Or chucked into the overpass like all of Mel Gibson’s empty Foster’s cans?
    1 hr 5 min
  • Episode 3 Happy Gilmore
    A deep dive into the character study “Happy Gilmore,” about a man who expresses the ever-present struggle between man and society by swearing at golf balls.
    Discussion includes Star Wars comparisions, talk of the increasing consistency of the Sandler universe, the proto-typical Sandler hero’s contradictory relationship to the film’s subaltern and fond reminesces of a pornographic nu metal disc one of the hosts had.
    (There’s a lot of headphone bleed on this one. I tried to clean it up as best as I could.)
    1 hr 14 min
  • Episode 2 Billy Madison
    Perhaps the true start of the “Adam Sandler Cinematic Universe.” Widely regarded as a comedy classic by people on your school bus, does it hold up? Is Billy Madison a well-observed distillation of Sandler’s already popular stand-up and SNL stint, or a grotesque Frankenstein’s monster of different parts, later to be disassembled as raw material for the rest of Adam Sandler’s roles? Is it actually a commentary on the corrupt and ineffective inheritance system present in America’s business class? Will that *&$%ing chair ever stop squeaking?!
