Absurdist Comedies

Absurdist Comedies

In this episode, we’re joined by special guest Cam for a deep dive into the wonderfully weird world of absurdist comedies. From the chaotic brilliance of What’s Up, Doc? to the iconic insanity of Monty Python and the Holy Grail, we unpack what makes these films so timeless—and so ridiculously funny. Along the way, we hit classics like The Jerk, Airplane!, and Blazing Saddles, exploring how each one leans into nonsense, satire, and pure comedic chaos. If you love jokes that come out of nowhere and humor that refuses to play by the rules, this episode is for you.
