Episode Description

Nothing much, what's up with you?!!!!?

On this episode of Spineless, Nick and Brennan take on one of the all-time great comedies: Peter Bogdanovich’s 1972 screwball WHAT’S UP, DOC?. It’s the film that introduced the world to Madeline Kahn. It’s a film that partially funded Barbra Streisand’s indoor mall. It’s a film featuring Austin Pendleton, a guy who once referred to Brennan as “a lot of fun”. It’s basically the best thing ever made. Plus, join Your Very Favorite Spineless Boys™️ for a new recurring segment and stay for the frank discussion on whether or not Barbra Streisand's character is a god.

Book including an interview with Peter Bogdanovich, referred to by Nick

Barbra Streisand's mall
