  • Underdog (with Ben Mekler)
    Sep 17 2025

    Years before she played Lois Lane, Amy Adams took on the role of a different superhero love interest in the 2007 comedy Underdog, where she voices a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Polly Purebred. We're joined by writer and director Ben Mekler to talk about Amy delivering the filthiest line of her career in a Disney movie, and why Underdog's missteps are Christopher Nolan's fault. Plus: the dauntingly expansive Air Bud universe, Jim Belushi's dog-centric career, and being the Amy Adams of the furry awards.

  • The Ex (with Patrick Cotnoir)
    Sep 10 2025

    Amy Adams has a slightly bigger part (emphasis on slightly) in the 2006 comedy The Ex, where she plays crunchy granola mom Abby. We're joined by Hey, That's Me! And The George Lucas Talk Show co-host Patrick Cotnoir to talk about the star power that convinced Amy to take this role, and why the more offensive unrated cut might be a better movie. Plus: the dying art of commentary tracks, men who quote The Office on dating apps, and the homophobia of underutilizing Mia Farrow.

  • Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny (with Brett Arnold)
    Sep 3 2025

    Given Amy Adams' low level of fame at the time, it's hard to even call her brief, wordless appearance in the 2006 musical comedy Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny a cameo—but that won't stop us from covering it. We're joined by Roger & Me and New Flesh host Brett Arnold to talk about how Amy ended up playing Gorgeous Woman, and why this movie had to bomb for the sake of the bit. Plus: the prank call soundboards that raised us, trying to make sense of straight culture, and Meat Loaf's thoughts on climate change.
