Welcome to the Billy Gilmore Podcast - we're back with a new Adam Sandler/Netflix film, SPACEMAN. This time, we're stepping away from the typical Adam Sandler comedy and instead focusing on a slower, more calculated drama featuring Sandler as a cosmonaut in space, removed from his wife on earth (played by Carey Mulligan). The Sandman/Spaceman finds a relationship onboard the ship with an unexpected friend: a human-sized spider played by Paul Dano. Join us as we venture into the world created by director Johan Renck and Adam Sandler in SPACEMAN.

The Billy Gilmore Podcast reaches the final conclusion of our David Spade mini-series with THE WRONG MISSY, a 2020 Netflix comedy starring Spade, the wonderfully cast Lauren Lapkus, Nick Swardson, Jackie Sandler, and more.
