Elaine Maynia has taken over Trevor & Valerie as they cover the incredibly misunderstood Elaine May film Ishtar with standup & comedy writer Sean O'Connor (Solar Opposites, Lights Out w/ David Spade, Norm Macdonald Live, Conan) to talk about the brilliant writing of Elaine May, May's time in The Compass Players, how this film was a forerunner in the field of Dumb Guy Comedy, shit talking of Beatty & Hoffman, & Valerie makes an impromptu Ishtar Trivia Game and chaos ensues. The trio also talk about Superman, Phil Rosenthal's podcast, Save The Cat, & how the Grumpy Old Men are the original Dirty Grandpas, and much more.
