Episode 81: Coming to America (1988)

from The Test of Time · host Alan Noah and James Brief

Eddie Murphy plays an African prince (and a singer, a barber, and an old Jewish man) in the box office smash, Coming to America. This week, Amita Patel from the Inside Pop podcast joins us to talk about the movie with a pampered prince you pity, the most misogynistic song ever, and a mic drop before mic drops were even a thing. Plus it's got a young Cuba Gooding Jr., Samuel L. Jackson, and Louie Anderson! Grab a Big Mick from McDowell's as we find out if 1988's Coming to America stands the Test of Time.
