EP. 86 — Ernest Goes To Jail

Lesley Arfin (Love, Brooklyn Nine-Nine) joins Paul, June, and Jason to break down Ernest P. Worrell’s antics in the 1990 slapstick comedy Ernest Goes To Jail. They discuss Ernest’s imperviousness to electricity, his ability to fly, and his Rube Goldberg contraptions that seem to always hurt people. Plus, they ask important questions like “Is this movie actually for kids?” and “Does Evil Ernest ooze sexuality?”
