David Gborie's Spark Is Old School

from The Spark Parade

The relentless silliness of Todd Phillip's smash hit comedy Old School is contrasted by the relatable everyman characters played by its breakout stars Will Ferrell and Vince Vaughn. Comedian, actor, and podcaster David Gborie saw Old School as the moment when comedic leads became less polished and more like normal people who happened to be joke machines. It was one of the era-defining films that set him on a comedy career path and helped him to believe he could make it in the industry.Please be sure to check David's podcast My Momma Told Me here and check information about his new comedy tour The Aluminium Foil Tour here.The Spark Parade is a podcast that dives deep into the films and albums that have inspired today’s creative icons.
