These Go to 11: The Genius of This Is Spinal Tap (1984)

Send us a text

 In this episode, we turn it up to eleven and dive into This Is Spinal Tap, the mockumentary that forever changed comedy, rock culture, and how bands laugh at themselves. From painfully earnest interviews to endlessly quotable moments, we explore why this low-budget satire became a cult classic—and how its blend of improvisation, absurdity, and affection for music still resonates decades later. Whether you’re a diehard fan or a first-time listener, this one’s loud, ridiculous, and surprisingly smart.
