Podcasts about Frank Drebin

Directed by Akiva Schaffer, The Naked Gun is the action crime comedy film which serves as a sequel to Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult (1994). It is the fourth film in the Naked Gun film franchise. The son of Lt. Frank Drebin, Frank Drebin Jr. (Liam Neeson), must succeed in his father's footsteps to prevent the closure of Police Squad and save the world. We break down all things from modernising a 30 year old franchise, Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson's comedic chops and chemistry, to poop jokes and a murderous snow man.

Directed by Akiva Schaffer (Hot Rod, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping), this is a a 21st Century relaunch of the crime spoof franchise which kicked off in 1988 with the original "The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!" which starred the late, great Leslie Neilsen as Lt. Frank Drebin.  Well the mantle has now been passed to Oscar-nominee Liam Neeson (Schindler's List, Darkman, Taken) who plays his son, Lt. Frank Drebin Jr.  This time around, he has his own crimes to solve kicking off with the murder of the brother of the mysterious Beth Davenport played by Pamela Anderson (The Last Showgirl, Barb Wire, Baywatch).  Furthermore, the prime suspect MIGHT be tech billionaire Richard Cane played by Danny Huston (The Constant Gardener, Wonder Woman, Children of Men).  And hilarity ensues?  Let's find out if this latest reboot can bring the funny as well as the original....  See below for a link to a special video featuring a DELIGHTFUL scene from another movie featuring a needle-drop used within this movie:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77m3XlhQwaIHost & Editor: Geoff GershonEditor: Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

In 1998, we got the sequel to the movie “The Fully-Clothed Gun”, known as “The Naked Gun.” Leslie Nielsen played ace detective Frank Drebin who showed everyone the wrong way to be a cop. Now, in 2025, we're getting the inevitable. A remake of “The Naked Gun” starring Liam Neeson as Frank Drebin Jr. who now has to carry on his father's legacy of being a cautionary tale with a badge who shoots first, asks questions much later, sometimes never. This reboot is brought to us by the same guys who brought us “Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping” and countless SNL skits, the Lonely Island boys. They get some help from Seth McFarlane from the “Ted” movies and “Family Guy.” Pamela Anderson, who never saw a boat she didn't have fun on, plays Frank's love interest. Sorry, no boat scene in this movie. They go up against the evil tech billionaire that I'm sure wasn't at all modeled after Elon Musk. He's played by Danny Huston who slimes his way across the screen. The original “Naked Gun” movies at hilarious quips and sight gags galore, and they landed most of the time. How many land in this reboot and is it worth going to the theater to see? Find out in this episode of “Movies Merica Live” with special guest star Adam from “Vets Talkin!” “The Naked Gun” also stars Paul Walter Houser, CCH Pounder, Kevin Durand, Liza Koshy, Eddy Yu and Michael Beasley. Support the showFeel free to reach out to me via:@MoviesMerica on Twitter @moviesmerica on InstagramMovies Merica on Facebook

Nuevo programa Par-Impar de esRadio dedicada a la mítica comedia absurda Agárralo como puedas, de 1988 con Leslie Nielsen. Este año 2025 la nueva Agárralo como puedas, con Liam Neeson interpretando al hijo del mítico (por las razones equivocadas) Frank Drebin, viene dispuesta a romper las taquillas. Pero antes estuvo la trilogía original, encabezada por esta primera The naked gun de 1988, que lanzó la carrera de Leslie Nielsen a una nueva etapa donde se reveló con un inesperado gran actor cómico. Una joya más del trío Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker bajo la lupa de Dani Palacios y Juanma González en un nuevo podcast Par-Impar de esRadio.

Summer's not over yet, and neither is Hollywood's addiction to remakes and requels! Case in point: The Naked Gun!Akiva Schaffer's legacy sequel picks up decades after 1988's The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!, and centers on Frank Drebin, Jr. (Liam Neeson), who wants nothing more than to live up to the legacy of his bumbling-hero father (Leslie Nielsen). When a bank heist connects to a murder, Frank Jr. finds himself in the midst of a wild techno conspiracy--and a whole lot of cartoon nonsense in the background! There's been a lot of controversy surrounding original Naked Gun co-writer/director David Zucker's lack of involvement in the new movie, but Earth's Mightiest Critics feel the new creative team has done their best to uphold the franchise's zany spirit.Does this mean that comedy is "back"?

Frank Drebin is here - and he wants YOUR ASS!we both really liked the naked gun (2025), go figure. its a laugh a minute type of movie that they just don't make anymore. and while the haters may say that there's no way to have a good podcast over a comedy, we DID IT. did you know Liam Neeson has some controversy surrounding him from the press run for Cold Pursuit that led to his casting in Atlanta Season 3 Episode 8? we also discussed Liam Neeson AND Pamela Anderson as surprising hit comedy performers late in their careers, their budding romance, the era of comedy being over post-Judd-Apatow, and other fun stuff. we even watched OJ get the crap beat out of him in certain scenes from Police Squad!

Paging Rick Deckard, the return (sort of) of Frank Drebin, Liam in love, the legacy of Leslie Nielsen, the one of a kind Kiyoshi Kurosawa, the pleasures of Retribution, my cat is missing, and an ending featuring Danny Aiello, Jack Nicholson, and John Wayne. Stuff mentioned: Blade Runner (1982), The Naked Gun (2025), The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988), Baywatch (1989-2001), Leslie Nielsen Fart Interview (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGuHDdSImFQ), Cloud (2025), Pulse (2001), Cure (1997), Creepy (2016), Retribution (2006), and Rhonda Byrne The Secret (2006).

It seems that comedy is back on the big screen, with the surprisingly effective reboot of the slapstick format of the original films. "The Naked Gun" stars Liam Neeson in the deadpan role of Lt. Frank Drebin of Police Squad. Howard Casner from "Pop Art" tries to explain how the editing of the film is different, Matthew Simpson from the "Awesome Friday Podcast" felt warm and happy seeing the film repeat the style of his beloved ZAZ team, and Courtney Small returns to the Lambcast after a long hiatus, to praise the laughter and casting of the film. 

This week, we kick things off with a deep dive into Lost Season 3's wild premiere — from Jack's glass cage blues to polar bear mysteries and the Others' sinister suburbia. Then we pivot to absurdity with The Naked Gun, spotlighting Liam Neeson stepping into the iconic role of Frank Drebin. Can he match the deadpan brilliance of Leslie Nielsen?Next up, we unpack the horror-romance Together starring Dave Franco and Alison Brie — a charming look at real-life couples navigating fictional heartbreak through the guise of body horror. Finally, we close things out with the anime-style chaos of K-Pop: Demon Hunters — yes, it's exactly what it sounds like, and yes, we are absolutely here for it.TV, film, romance, demons, and... plane crashes? Just another eclectic episode, only on the #talkintvpodcast.

You have heard the name Frank Drebin, now meet his son Frank Drebin Jr. (played by Liam Neeson) in Naked Gun, also we recap the massively raved about Happy Gilmore 2 as well as the second part to the Billy Joel documentary - And So It Goes!

Liam Neeson startet zeitnahe mit Adam Sandlers Comeback als golfspielender Hockeyspieler Happy Gilmore seinen ersten Einsatz als Frank Drebin jr. im neuen Teil von Die Nackte Kanone. Dass überhaupt eine der beiden Komödien sowohl Patrick als auch Daniel in Die Letzte Filmkritik für sich gewinnen konnte, war vorher nicht abzusehen. Auch beim anderen Film sind sie sich einig - der ist jedoch einfach nur entsetzlich.

Frank Drebin of Police Squad is back…. kind of. 31 years after the final film in the original The Naked Gun trilogy, Liam Neeson has stepped into Leslie Nielsen's shoes to revitalize the series in The Naked Gun. In our Spoiler-Free The Naked Gun Review we will give you all of our thoughts on this sequel including how newcomers Pamela Anderson and Paul Walter Hauser (among others) fit in alongside Liam Neeson, whether the laughs are just as good, better, or worse than a typical Naked Gun movie and so much more.

Greg Alba, Aaron Alexander, and Andrew Gordon (Cinepals) return to wrap up the iconic trilogy starring the legendary Leslie Nielsen as the endlessly clumsy yet lovable Frank Drebin in the final entry of the Naked Gun series. In this reaction, we dive into all the absurd gags, slapstick brilliance, and unforgettable moments from the 1994 comedy classic, including the Oscars sequence, "Nice beaver!" callback, explosive train climax, and Weird Al Yankovic's cameo. We break down how the film satirizes Hollywood, award shows, and action movie tropes with pitch-perfect timing and Nielsen's deadpan brilliance. We also spotlight returning cast members Priscilla Presley as Jane Spencer, George Kennedy as Ed Hocken, and O.J.

With guest appearances by Raquel Welch, James Earl Jones, and more, this wild finale delivers non-stop laughs. We celebrate the legacy of this franchise, touch on its influence on spoof movies, and share our favorite quotes, like “Like a midget at a urinal, I was going to have to stay on my toes.” If you're a fan of Airplane!, Hot Shots, or 90s parody films, this one's for you.

Von 1988 bis 1994 sorgte Leslie Nielsen als Ltd. Frank Drebin in „Die nackte Kanone“ (The Naked Gun“ für Chaos und Klamauk. Die Trilogie genießt bis heute Kultstatus und erlebt jetzt mit Liam Neeson in der Hauptrolle eine Neuauflage. Viele Szenen aus den drei Erfolgsfilmen sind unvergessen und werden noch immer vielfach zitiert. Humor ist jedoch häufig kontextabhängig. Bisweilen lachen wir nicht mehr so unbefreit. Inzwischen ist mit Donald Trump ein Wiedergänger im Weißen Haus, zumindest in Bezug auf grenzüberschreitendes Verhalten und den permanenten Bruch mit den Konventionen. Von einem „new normal“ ist die Rede, was durch die omnipräsenten Krisen noch verstärkt wird. Es scheint, als habe die Filmreihe ihre Unschuld verloren, wenngleich wir die Vergangenheit lieber nicht verklären sollten: Die Slapstick-Einlagen und dummen Sprüche sollten uns nicht darüber hinwegtäuschen, dass Drebin schon immer für eine aggressive Law-and-Order-Politik stand. Zudem hat er die Grenzen der Normalität – wie heute Trump – gehörig verschoben. Allerdings ist Drebin auch nicht einfach als rechter Kulturkämpfer abzutun, wie vor allem der zweite Teil deutlich macht. Mehr dazu von Wolfgang M.

Minute 4 of The Naked Gun has Frank Drebin warning the terrorists about traveling to America, and the opening credits begin. Dave, Matt and Eric get their cars washed.

In minute 3 of The Naked Gun, Frank Drebin finally reveals himself to the terrorist leaders and begins to lay the smackdown. Join Eric, Matt and Dave as they discuss the mayhem.

This brings back so many memories for us, the 1980s and 90s, Frank Drebin's utter incompetence and Leslie Neilsen's brilliance. Hat Loving Gamer has excelled himself with this interpretation, taking in a bunch of retro games - everything from PacMan to Mario and then adding in a bit of Halo and GTA for good measure. Our selection of this film also has absolutely nothing to do with the launch of NS2 or the announcement of a new NG movie... Enjoy the discussion.Credits -Speakers: Ricky Grove, Phil Rice, Damien Valentine, Tracy HarwoodProducer: Ricky GroveEditor: Phil RiceMusic: Phil Rice & SunoAI

Frank Drebin is back—sort of. The Bluff Council breaks down the 2025 trailer for The Naked Gun reboot, starring Liam Neeson as the bumbling detective in a world that may be too ironic for its own good. We dig into the legacy of the original Zucker-Abrams-Zucker classic, the risks of reviving deadpan parody in today's comedy landscape, and whether Neeson can fill the very large shoes (and badge) left by Leslie Nielsen. Is this a fresh take—or just another spoof that slips on its own banana peel?

Well, we've run fast through the Frank Drebin cinematic experience before August's big legasequel, and whilst finding time to talk Thunderbolts* and Final Destination: Bloodlines, we also take a trip to the 1994 Academy Awards, the box office of OJ Summer and Neil Jordan's filmography. Everything the Police Squad franchise was meant to invoke.

Vi fortsätter Leslie Nielsen-temat med en s k dubbel whammy där vi bjuder på inte bara en utan två filmer i ett och samma avsnitt! Givetvis är det de två uppföljarna till Nakna Pistolen som diskuteras! Hur står de sig mot den fantastiska originalfilmen? Lyssna för att få reda på svaret!   Teknologiskt haveri gjorde att resan till detta avsnitt var mycket lång och mödosam, så vi hoppas det ska väl smaka!   Den nakna pistolen 2½: Doften av rädsla (The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear) (1991): "Polisinspektör Frank Drebin är helt förkrossad efter att hans förhållande med Jane tagit slut. Hennes nye pojkvän smider lömska planer som involverar både solenergi och kidnappning. Drebin och hans kollegor rycker ut för att rädda världen."   Nakna pistolen 33 1/3: Den slutgiltiga förolämpningen (Naked Gun 33⅓: The Final Insult) (1994): "Frank Drebin får i uppdrag att arbeta under täckmantel på statsfängelset för att ta reda på vad terroristen Rocco har för planer när han blir frisläppt. Jakten på Rocco leder till Oscarsgalan."   Superlänk till alla våra plattformar: linktr.ee/filmsmakarna   #LeslieNielsen #NaknaPistolen #NakedGun

Vi är tillbaka för att diskutera en av filmhistoriens riktiga tungviktare: Den Nakna Pistolen! Leslie Nielsen återvänder till rollen som Lt. Frank Drebin från den nedlagda tv-serien Police Squad! I den här filmen får han sällskap av Priscilla Presley som Jane Spencer och O.J. Simpson som Nordberg när de tar sig an Ricardo Montalbáns storskurk Vincent Ludwig. Mycket nöje!

Frank Drebin first graced our screens in 1982 with Police Squad, but 6 episodes is all we got. Fast forward 6 years and we get to this week's Chris pick with The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! The production of The Naked Gun was like a case file thick with mystery, mayhem, and, most likely, unpaid parking tickets. Directed by the Zucker brothers with a firm grip on comedy and a loose grip on reality, this cinematic marvel brought Lieutenant Frank Drebin to the big screen, much to the delight of the three people who remembered Police Squad! from 1982. They say this movie was made on a modest budget, but Frank's always said, if you can't solve it with duct tape and a pair of sensible shoes, you're probably not on his police force. The budget might've been low, but the jokes were plentiful, and if one didn't work, we were already onto the next one by the time the first one hit the ground. They brought Frank to Los Angeles, where the sun is as relentless as a perp with nothing to lose. The Zuckers and Abrahams had a vision: combine slapstick and deadpan to make every scene feel like an all-points bulletin of laughter. With a crack team of talented actors and stuntmen who were probably just as confused as anyone, they pulled it off, and The Naked Gun became an instant classic. It's not every day that the badge, the gun, and a suspect list full of clowns come together, but when they do, you can bet Frank'll be there, saying something profoundly misguided. And remember, if you see something suspicious… well, keep it to yourself.

Naturally, I can't let that happen, not on my watch, and certainly not before lunch. As I dive into my investigation, things get complicated. There's Jane, a mysterious woman who's got more charm than a box of donuts and who may or may not be involved with a devious businessman named Vincent Ludwig. Ludwig, by the way, is planning something big, and I don't mean a charity bake sale. So there I am, trying to stop an assassination attempt, win Jane's heart, and look good in a cheap suit—all at once. Somehow, it all ends with me frantically searching the stands at a baseball game, dodging mascots and hot dog vendors as I try to save the Queen. But don't worry; I handle it with all the precision and grace you'd expect from a seasoned detective. In the end, justice is served, more or less, and I come out looking like a hero. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thevhsstrikesback/support

When we talk about The Naked Gun (1988), we're diving headfirst into a comedy treasure chest—one filled with absurdity, brilliant wordplay, and visual gags that just don't stop. This Zucker, Abrahams, and Zucker (ZAZ) film, starring the ever-stoic Leslie Nielsen as the bumbling detective Lt. Frank Drebin, stands as one of the defining examples of slapstick parody. It's a film that has aged remarkably well, continuing to resonate with new audiences and reminding those who saw it back in 1988 just how funny an entirely ridiculous movie can be.Plot and Storytelling: Simplicity at its FunniestAt its core, The Naked Gun is a detective story—a genre that's been spoofed many times but never quite with the same flair as this film. The plot revolves around Lt. Drebin, a man dedicated to solving crimes but utterly incapable of doing so with any amount of skill or professionalism. In The Naked Gun, Drebin is tasked with thwarting a plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth II during her visit to Los Angeles. The story quickly evolves into a chaotic blend of police procedural satire, ridiculous missteps, and wildly inappropriate antics, all the while managing to maintain an air of sincerity, thanks to Nielsen's deadpan performance.The film plays it smart by not worrying too much about the intricacies of the plot. Instead, it focuses on building its jokes around the absurdity of the situation and the cluelessness of its characters. It's almost as if the ZAZ team were saying, “We know the plot's thin, but you're here for the laughs, right?” And laugh we do—from the first moment to the iconic final act at the baseball stadium. Whether it's a visual gag or a clever line of dialogue, every scene is packed with humour.The Genius of Leslie Nielsen: Deadpan PerfectionBefore The Naked Gun, Leslie Nielsen had a long career in more serious roles but found his true calling as a comedic actor in Airplane! (1980)—also directed by ZAZ. That film launched Nielsen's second wind as a parody star, and his portrayal of Frank Drebin cemented his legacy as the king of deadpan humour. The genius of Nielsen lies in his ability to deliver the most ridiculous lines with the gravitas of a Shakespearean actor. There's no winking at the camera or over-the-top physical comedy; Nielsen plays it as straight as possible, making the absurdity around him even funnier.Take, for example, one of the film's most famous lines: “Nice beaver.” Drebin says this with no awareness of the double entendre, but when Jane Spencer (Priscilla Presley) responds by handing him a literal stuffed beaver, the joke lands perfectly. This sort of naive, deadpan delivery that Nielsen mastered makes Frank Drebin one of the most lovable oafs in cinematic history.Supporting Cast: A Perfect EnsembleOf course, Nielsen is supported by a stellar cast, each contributing to the film's comic rhythm. Priscilla Presley plays Jane Spencer, Drebin's love interest, and her straight-laced performance brilliantly complements Nielsen's obliviousness. The chemistry between Presley and Nielsen feels oddly genuine, grounding the film just enough to allow the wild antics around them to feel even more surreal.George Kennedy, as Drebin's partner, Captain Ed Hocken, provides another layer of deadpan delivery, playing the more serious cop who happens to be swept along by Drebin's incompetence. Meanwhile, Ricardo Montalbán, as the villain Vincent Ludwig, brings an elegant, almost Bond-villain-style menace to the role, perfectly contrasting Drebin's clumsy crime-fighting attempts. Montalbán's role is particularly memorable for how seriously he seems to take his part—his dignity adding to the hilarity of the situations he finds himself in.Slapstick and Sight Gags: Nonstop and RelentlessZucker, Abrahams, and Zucker excel in their unique brand of humour, and The Naked Gun is no exception. The film is filled with sight gags that reward multiple viewings. For instance, in the opening scene, Drebin foils an international conspiracy while hilariously bumbling his way through a fight with some of the world's most notorious villains. The film doesn't waste a moment to make you laugh—whether it's Drebin inadvertently causing chaos during a press conference or his notorious attempt to sing the national anthem at a baseball game.One standout moment is the baseball stadium scene, where Drebin, disguised as an umpire, ends up calling the game. This sequence showcases Nielsen's impeccable timing and the film's mastery of physical comedy. Drebin's complete misunderstanding of how baseball works leads to a series of increasingly ridiculous events, all while keeping the assassination plot in the background. It's a perfect example of how The Naked Gun balances slapstick with satire, layering gags on top of each other for maximum effect.Pop Culture and Cultural Impact: The Birth of a ClassicThe Naked Gun was an instant hit when it was released, not just because it was funny, but because it tapped into something fresh at the time: the spoof genre had been gaining steam in the 1980s, but few films did it as relentlessly or as successfully as The Naked Gun. Its success spawned two sequels—The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear (1991) and The Naked Gun 33⅓: The Final Insult (1994)—both continued Drebin's absurd adventures.But the film's influence extended beyond its sequels. It paved the way for other parody films, helping solidify the ZAZ brand of comedy, which had already been popularised by Airplane! and Top Secret! (1984). It also led to an entire generation of comedies that relied on rapid-fire jokes and visual gags, like Hot Shots! (1991) and Scary Movie (2000). Even modern-day comedy shows, like Brooklyn Nine-Nine, owe a debt to The Naked Gun for its ability to blend procedural elements with comedy.The Enduring Legacy of Frank DrebinThe Naked Gun remains a beloved comedy classic over three decades after its release. Part of that is due to its unique combination of clever wordplay, slapstick humour, and pure silliness, but it's also because of the character of Frank Drebin. In a sea of competent, smooth-talking detectives, Drebin is a breath of fresh air—a man who's as clueless as he is sincere. There's something timeless about how Leslie Nielsen approaches the role, never once letting Drebin become a caricature but always playing him with heart, no matter how foolish he seems.For fans of parody, The Naked Gun is essential viewing. It's the kind of film you can watch repeatedly and still find something new to laugh at. Whether you're a die-hard fan revisiting the movie or a newcomer discovering Drebin's antics for the first time, The Naked Gun never fails to deliver pure comedic gold.So, if you haven't yet revisited this classic, now's the time. Just be prepared to laugh—over and over again.

Season 2 Episode 7: The Naked Gun (1988) is ready for listening whenever you are! This movie isn't full of many lessons except the most important: stop taking life so seriously and enjoy the silly movie. The Naked Gun (1988) stars Leslie Nielsen as Frank Drebin, a rather clueless police detective, who tries to foil a plot to turn innocent people into assassins through mind control.

SEASON 2 EPISODE 88: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: Jack Smith dares our corrupt Supreme Court to answer the decisive question right here, right now: If Dementia J. Trump is right and he didn't just make up this "Presidential Immunity" bullshit out of whole cloth, why did Ford pardon Nixon? Why did Nixon negotiate a pardon with Ford before he resigned? Why did Trump say just three months ago he was advised to pardon himself, and that if elected again he would consider a self-pardon?  Smith's bold move to get the Supreme Court to decide this ultimate question will, if nothing else, cut Trump's endless stalls off at the pass. But with Samuel Alito just yesterday issuing a dissent in another case that might as well have been pulled off one of Trump's insane ALL CAPS SOCIAL MEDIA WORDGASMS, might Alito lead SCOTUS into a disaster just horrific enough to destroy itself and the nation by siding with Trump's ahistorical, unconstitutional crap? ALSO: On Day One of their trial, Giuliani's lawyer assures us he knows he did wrong and shouldn't be punished for slandering the two Georgia poll workers. Then Rudy goes out and slanders them again. Trump's mental deterioration is so obvious it was noticed even by Megyn Kelly (who looks like she could star in a re-make of "Ilsa, She-Wolf of the SS"). And his "dictator" remarks are so obviously dangerous that even Peter Baker and The New York Times noticed - and the Trump campaign is trying to get him to ix-nay the ictatorship-day. B-Block (20:00) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Their political grandfathers wanted to appease Hitler and give him England and the Jews. Today's GOP is meeting with representatives of Hungarian strongman Orban to try to appease Putin and give him Ukraine and NATO. (24:37) IN SPORTS: Shohei Ohtani is both selfless and selfish. He will defer $68 million a year of his $70 million salary, giving his new Dodger employers a huge break in the baseball "luxury tax" - and himself on the real California state tax. And what happened to that Ohtani-To-Toronto story? My bet, from having seen it occur to another brilliant sports reporter, is that Jon Paul Morosi didn't screw up; his source did - or lied to him. I'll tell you the Jim Lampley/Larry Brown story. And I'll SING ABOUT MOROSI AND OHTANI. (34:31) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Vivek Ramaswamy's most cogent statement ever: leaves the mike on during a bathroom break. Climate deniers will get to watch another previously unconsidered disaster unfold. And Nancy Mace and her fiancé broke up? A class dame like her what talks about morning sex at a prayer breakfast? c-Block (39:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: You are welcome to skip this, but I found a cassette over the weekend. It is a bunch of sportscasts recorded the week of my 18th birthday. The voice is high, the predictions are startlingly good. As are the cameos.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
