About this episode
Get ready to travel back in time to the year 1999 with this special anniversary episode of our podcast! We're diving deep into the political comedy film "Election" directed by the one and only Alexander Payne. Join us as we revisit the hilarious antics of Tracy Flick, played by Reese Witherspoon, and the bumbling high school teacher Jim McAllister, played by Matthew Broderick. And let's not forget about the charming jock Paul Metzler, played by Chris Klein, who throws a wrench into the student council election. With plenty of awkward moments, cringe-worthy decisions, and laugh-out-loud scenes, this movie is a must-watch for anyone who loves a good political satire. So grab your popcorn, your retro 90s snacks, and get ready to celebrate the 25th anniversary of "Election" with us on this episode filled with nostalgia, comedy, and maybe even a few election campaign tips for your own high school run for office. Don't miss out on the fun - tune in now!
