EP. 90: Heavyweights (1995)

Dave had one final nostalgia pick he'd been holding onto, and this one is extra special. If you grew up in the 90s, you probably love this movie or you've never heard of it. The podcast has been cancelled due to lack of hustle; it's Heavyweights!

This one has everything: a crazed Ben Stiller, a surprising amount of body positivity for the 90s, Paul Feig doing the least Paul Feig-y things ever on film, a kid-movie plot that you really shouldn't think too hard about, and even a rare Dave industry story!

If you have any random questions, comments, or musings, email them to “us” over the next few weeks. And don’t forget to join us on Patreon, where we’ll be donning the capes indefinitely for our monthly exclusive content!

The final Ebert pick is at the end of this episode. Thank you to everyone who sent in their choices this month and every other. If you have movies you still want us to talk about, you know exactly where to send them (preferably with zero additional context).
