Dana and Tom are back again to discuss a personal favorite of theirs; the comedy re-defining Airplane! (1980): written and directed by David Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and Jerry Zucker, starring Leslie Nielsen, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Robert Hays.

Plot Summary: This spoof comedy takes shots at the slew of disaster movies that were released in the 70s. When the passengers and crew of a jet are incapacitated due to food poisoning, a rogue pilot with a drinking problem must cooperate with his ex-girlfriend turned stewardess to bring the plane to a safe landing.
