Listen "Ventura Battle Royale"
Episode Synopsis
We’re kicking off Jim Carrey Month by going back to our roots, two movies, one episode, one shared haze. This week, we revisit Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls to see how these over-the-top comedies have aged, and how they stack up against each other.There’s a lot to unpack: the performance that launched Carrey into superstardom, the sequel that cranked everything up to 11, and the moments that hit differently in 2025. We talk physical comedy, animal ethics, bat phobias, and where these films sit in the broader Jim Carrey universe.Whether you grew up quoting these movies or haven’t seen them in years, this is a solid place to start your own rewatch. Light one up and settle in, it’s Ace vs. Ace, and it’s officially Jim Carrey Month.Give us a follow on Instagram: @high.expectations.podReach out with comments or suggestions at [email protected] courtesy of Vince Sasso of the Vince Sasso Trio(check them out on Instagram! @vincesassotrio)
