David Zucker

David Zucker was one of the creative minds behind Airplane and The Naked Gun films. He is now one of the creative minds behind the Scary Movie sequels. Luckily (we think), he didn't both write and direct those movies (officially). In this episode, we are joined by Sam Young to discuss the films of David Zucker . . . and to figure out how weird it is to see O.J. Simpson acting. Sorry for the poor audio quality. Sam was not in fact on the moon.
