Ep 39 - Camp Nowhere

06/20/24 • 69 min

Step back to the summer of 1994, a time when your parents were keen on sending you to computer camp, but you had other plans. You decided to hire a con man, a former drama teacher, to pose as a camp counselor and create your own camp, where the only rule was to have fun. This week on Save the Last Pod, we're taking you back to that unforgettable summer, filled with firecrackers, car repairs, rooftop jumps, and even lima beans! It’s the 30th Anniversary of the nostalgia-inducing, rebellious teen action-comedy, CAMP NOWHERE! Let’s go!!

In this episode, Amy and Dan discuss the future hotties of teen idoldom Jonathan Jackson, Andrew Keegan, and Jessica Alba in their first-ever film credit and where they and the rest of this cast are now. Plus—CULTS! That’s right. We debate the question: Is camp a cult? If Allison Mack is involved, it might just be. Space travel, getting grounded, doctors who wear crop-tops, and 5:15 fly-overs—anything can happen when you are nowhere, including having the greatest summer of your life.
