The Stake Podcast - Saved!

The hijinks of Evangelical Christian teenagers are the subject of Saved!, the 2004 comedy set in the halls of American Eagle High School. Writer/Director Brian Dannelly goes for a hard-hitting satire of the idiosyncrasies of Evangelical America, but does he achieve it? Or his movie just hitting at the low-hanging fruit of teenage zealots.

ZF, Erv and Andrew unpack how the high-school comedy genre mixes with conservative Christianity. And whether Mandy Moore’s Hilary Faye is Meaner than the mean girls in Mean Girls. Plus, one of Macauley Culkin last feature roles.
