Today, we’re going back to 1988 for John Landis’s romantic comedy, Coming to America. Eddie Murphy stars in this story of an African prince who rejects the idea of his arranged marriage, so he travels to America to find true love while feigning that he’s a broke immigrant to be sure of their sincerity. Eddie is joined by Arsenio Hall, James Earl Jones, Eriq La Salle, with bit parts played by Louis Anderson, and an appearance by Samuel L Jackson. Coming to America made ~$300 million from a $36 million budget, won two Oscars, and became a classic comedy of its time. But does it hold-up? Listen in as Jon, Colin, and Brent debate the proper way to clean a royal penis as we figure out if this one is more Soul Glo or Soul No.
