Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me

Send us a text

Welcome back to Almost Classic Movies, where Jern and Dern dive into groovy throwbacks, questionable fashion choices, and highly quotable comedy gold. This week: Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me.

In this episode:

• Austin loses his “mojo” (yes, it’s a real plot point), teams up with CIA agent Felicity, and battles a familiar cast of over-the-top villains, including the now-iconic Mini-Me.
• The hosts compare this sequel to the original, debate whether it leans too hard on certain types of humor, and explore the surprisingly heartfelt growth in Austin’s character.
• Jern shares what it was like to watch the movie with a first-timer. Dern nerds out over editing tricks and 60s TV callbacks.
• Plus: trivia on international censorship, Heather Graham’s almost-different career path, and a not-so-serious theory involving Austin Powers and the Marvel multiverse.
