This week on The Houli’s Hooley, Paddy and Bill kick things off with a quick riff on the shocking Charlie Kirk assassination before quickly steering back into their natural habitat of chaos and comedy. From doomsday rapture theories and South African pastor prophecies to Bears banter and karaoke confessions, the lads tackle life’s big questions: Will the apocalypse interrupt the Irish American Movie Hooley Film Festival? What’s the most embarrassing song to get raptured mid-verse? And can pizza survive the end of days? In true Hooley fashion, they pepper in absurd business ideas, wild Ghostbusters quotes, and plenty of Chicago-flavored nonsense all while hyping up the Hooley Film Festival (Sept 26–28 at the Wilmette Theatre) with King Frankie, Dead Man’s Money, and Fire Department, Inc. on the marquee.
