Podcasts about Strange Wilderness

Send a textWhat happens when a movie you once despised suddenly makes you laugh out loud? We dive back into Strange Wilderness and pull apart why some of its dumbest jokes still work—and why the “movie” around them often doesn't. We set the table with the film's sketch roots, the Sandler-adjacent cast, and the loose, improv-first approach that leaves scenes searching for an ending. Then we zero in on the bright spots: the nature documentary parodies that deliver clean, quotable lines with a confident, wrong-on-purpose voiceover. When the film sticks to that angle, the jokes snap; when it wanders, setups die before their payoffs.We get specific. The turkey clinic should be a premise machine; instead it blinks at the exact moment heightening should kick in. The scar-trading campfire misses easy layups. A promised punch to a rival's face never lands. But Steve Zahn's full-throttle commitment wrings laughs from chaos, Justin Long's spaced-out physicality adds texture, and Jonah Hill's stream-of-consciousness bursts occasionally hit surreal gold. The Bigfoot finale is dark and oddly honest—humans panic and ruin discovery—followed by a ludicrous “fix” that somehow fits the crew's shameless logic. And yes, the late shark montage is a 10/10 showcase for tight edits and confidently stupid science, the kind of bit that proves craft can elevate silliness.Along the way we talk joke structure, UCB-style game, and why committing to escalation matters more than shock value. If you care about how comedy lands—writing, rhythm, and payoffs—you'll find plenty to argue with and steal for your own creative brain. Stay for the punchy breakdowns, the debate over dated gags, and our case for why the right edit can redeem a bad scene. Enjoy the ride, then tell us: secret classic or still a glorious mess?

This is a fun one folks, three of the funniest comics together on this Comedy Round Table podcast. We have comedy Screen Writer Peter Gualke, comic-musician Jaz Kaner, and my Friend Bob Worley. All of whom were very successful Headliners back in the day. They each pivoted to other areas after standup. Peter wrote the movie "Strange Wilderness" and has two books out..."Unseen America". Jaz operates his own Surf School in So Cal called "Banzai Surf School" and Bob was a stay at Home Dad and now is a professional script punch-up writer. It is an interesting interview with some tragic stories, and lots-o-Laughs...enjoy!Hosted by R. Scott EdwardsSupport the show
