We continue with part 3 of our very scientific survey "Was Adam Sandler actually funny?" and watch his second sports comedy with Michael Chau of Heckler Films. We ask the tough questions like "Is Bobby Bouché supposed to be mentally stunted, emotionally stunted, or both?" and "What is the purpose of Farmer Fran and what is he saying?" and really "What dirt does Rob Schneider have on Sandler?"
Part 2 of our Totally Scientific Study - Was Adam Sandler Funny? We all remember him being funny and loving his early work but then it all seemed to go downhill. We are asking “was there ever a top of the hill to go down from?” This week we are joined by funny lady Sara Goldsmith to watch Happy Gilmore and get to the bottom of it. How does that fight with Bob Barker hold up? Was Shooter McGavin the greatest Sandler villain? Wait, Ben Stiller was in this movie?
Director/Stop-Motion Animator Eriq Wities stops by to help us figure out if Adam Sandler was ever funny or if his sense of humor is truly that of a 12-year-old (like we once were.) Join us as we try to figure out whether this film is a celebration or condemnation of the lazy capitalist class (or anything at all. -Laura)

We're back for Season 2! Youtuber and video game designer Brent Black is on the show to see if Macaulay Culkin can do it again.

Writer/director Diana Wright returns to review this a Christmas entry into her apparent favorite genre: young scamps getting into mischief.
