Touchdown! In this episode of Better Remembered, we tackle the 1999 comedy-drama Varsity Blues. Follow the journey of a backup quarterback who steps up to lead a Texas high school football team to glory after the star quarterback gets injured.
But that’s not all! We also dive into the timeless debate: does food really taste better when cooked over a campfire? Plus, we compare the budgets and outcomes of the films Ready Player One and The Holdovers. John hosts a spirited round of High School Movie Trivia, and we take a nostalgic trip back to January 1999 as we rewatch Varsity Blues.
Join us for an episode filled with sports, cinema, and plenty of fun as we ask: is Varsity Blues even better remembered?
