Episode description

Our Junior Year continues with a film created by two future High School Slumber Party Hall of Famers; Fast Times at Ridgemont High! Written by Almost Famous scribe Cameron Crowe and directed by future Clueless chief Amy Heckerling, Fast Times was a surprise hit that mostly holds up today. Returning guest Dan Colon is here to help us take a deep dive into this beloved classic. Not just your average 80s teen sex comedy, Fast Times has a lot of heart aided by amazing performances from Judge Reinhold, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Phoebe Cates, and of course Sean Penn as Spicoli. So order yourself a pizza and be prepared for an extra long episode as Christian Larson also stops by to discuss the impact the film had on his life.
