Episode 11: To Learn About The World
“The Stroll” by The Diamonds plays as Curt strolls through his old high school. He talks with a former teacher who encourages Curt to push past his doubts and go off to college. But don’t like this guy too much—even Mr Wolfe knows his behavior towards his female students is no good! Actual teenager Luke Allen (from The Love, Rosie Podcast) joins Doris to talk about how quickly nostalgia for school kicks in after graduation and his love of DVDs. He traces the connections between this movie and the Lampoon films and debates the best way to approach teen movies that haven’t aged well.
