Broken Lizard's Jay Chandrasekhar And Kevin Heffernan's Sparks Are 48 hrs and A Wild And Crazy Guy

Broken Lizard's Jay Chandrasekhar and Kevin Heffernan have created some incredible comedy classics like Super Troopers, so it's no surprise that they're both sparked by other legendary comedians. For Jay, it was love at first sight when he first experienced Eddie Murphy's big screen debut 48 hrs. He's drawn tons of inspiration from the movie's delicate balance between a gritty cop thriller and a light-hearted buddy comedy. Kevin has been obsessed with Steve Martin's classic comedy album A Wild And Crazy Guy from the moment he first heard it as a kid. It's a snapshot of a rock star comedian at the peak of his powers and it's massive success provided a template for decades of stand-up comedy specials.Be sure to check Broken Lizard's new film Quasi, which is out now on Hulu.The Spark Parade is a podcast that dives deep into the films and albums that have inspired today’s creative icons.
