About this episode
The hosts discuss Oliver Stone's film 'Any Given Sunday' in the context of football and its cultural impact.
For their 227th episode, two third-string critics, two painkiller-addicted dads, and two steamin' teachers, Will Johnson and Don Shanahan, arrive at the weekend of the Super Bowl with one more football classic from a generation ago. As the complete opposite to the wholesome "Remember the Titans" from a recent episode, our hosts cover Oliver Stone's 1999 cinematic energy drink "Any Given Sunday." They try to comprehend the amount of cocaine and creativity it took to make every aspect of that wild movie that turned out to be prophetic and ahead of its time. Come learn more and stay for the mutual love and respect that fun movies encapsulate. Enjoy our podcast!
