Summary

We’re confronting some of our biggest fears and learning that maybe what we’re running from… maybe we’re just running from ourselves. Yes, of course, we’re talking about Orgazmo. Released in 1997 the film was directed by and stars Trey Parker who plays Joe Young, a Mormon on his mission in the big bad city of Los Angeles where he happens upon a porn shoot and gets recruited to play an adult superhero, the titular Orgazmo.

David Rodgers and Brad Jones join Mike to discuss the movie while Toddy Walters and Jason McHugh talk about the making of Orgazmo (as well as the other early Parker/Stone films).
