Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (with Ash Crossan)

Episode Description

Instead of following up Junebug with Oscar bait, Amy Adams returned to studio comedy in 2006's Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, where she plays Ricky's assistant-turned-love interest, Susan. We're joined by Emmy-winning reporter and Screen Rant host Ash Crossan to talk about Amy's iconic monologue, and whether or not this movie is funnier than Anchorman. Plus: Will Ferrell's kissing skills, the charm of aughts homophobia, and how the Netflix sheen is ruining comedies.
