    Doesn't get much more Leguizamo-y than a television show that features the guy's name in the title, baby!

    186. The Pest (1997) with Alexei Toliopoulos

    It's hard to find a movie that our guest (comedian and avid cinephile Alexei Toliopoulos) hasn't seen... but we did it! And it's a movie that many of you have been BEGGING us to unpack.
    This week, we chat about "The Pest" - a 1997 comedy written and starring our favourite character actor, John Leguizamo!
    This film tells the story of Pestario - a goofy scam artist that owes money to the Scottish mob. With the hope of winning $50000, he agrees to take part in a bizarre hunting game presented to him by an insane German who plans on killing Pestario and mounting his head to add to his collection.
    John plays The Pest.

Abused into making a review on episode 14

I’ve been binging this for the past week while I do house work and caught myself smiling about you guys while walking to uni like a stupid little idiot. Also I’d like to say I had no idea who John Leguizamo is and at this stage I refuse to even google him to see what he looks like

Oh my googley moogley

Oh boy oh me oh my, are you in for a right hot treat with this podcast. Absolutely would not recommend listening while in an office full of people, many times I had to stop myself from just laughing out loud because then I would look insane. But really, it is laugh out loud funny! Favourite part was the 30 minute intro, closely followed by the third episode dedicated fully to one-pot pasta. This pod gave me a new appreciation for the Great John Legs.
