Description

Ever wondered how a bunch of teenage misfits from the late 1950s became the stars of a cult classic? Relive the hilarity and absurdity of "Porky's" with us as we recount our first encounters with Pee-wee, Meat, Schwartz, and the rest of the gang. From their outlandish attempts to lose their virginity to the unforgettable peeping scene in the girls' shower, we laugh about every ridiculous and iconic moment. We'll also tackle the film's subplots, such as the boys facing prejudice and teacher conflicts, and the side-splitting storyline involving a sexually frustrated coach. Get ready to join in on the nostalgia and madness as these teens plot their epic revenge on the infamous Porky.

But that's not all! We take a deeper, more critical look at the bizarre, humorous, and sometimes downright weird elements that make "Porky's" a beloved classic. Ever heard about the deadbeat dad on a motorcycle or Pee-wee's peculiar quest for sex? We've got you covered. Plus, find out why we think the film's portrayal of teenage relationships is both organic and relatable. If you're a fan of 80s screwball comedies, you'll definitely want to hear our plans for future episodes where we'll tackle films like "Meatballs," "Revenge of the Nerds," and "Screwballs." And don't miss our new segment, Movie Monday, where we dissect all the 20th-century crappy movies you didn't know you needed to watch. Join us for a rollercoaster of laughs and nostalgic fun!
