House of Crouse

Welcome to the House of Crouse. It's Movie Monday at the HoC! Today we have a look at the Oscar nominated Spotlight, the true story of how the Boston Globe uncovered allegations of child molestation and the subsequent cover-up within the local Catholic Archdiocese. Stopping by to chat are John Slattery (he was Roger on Mad Men!) and Liev Schreiber. Go ahead, make your day and give us a listen.

The stick around and hear 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Beghazi star Pablo Schreiber talk about working with director Michael Bay. Come on in and stay warm and happy at the House of Crouse!

Welcome to the House of Crouse. Our guests today are both magicians. One is an actual magician, the other a wizard of words. James Randi was one of Johnny Carson's favourite guests and he's one of mine as well. He's a stage magician, scientific skeptic and was the guy who beheaded Alice Cooper dozens of times on stage! Charlie Kaufman is the screenwriter of Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and now the writer and co-director of "Anomalisa," a stop motion film with puppets that's more human than most live action films. Come by for a visit. Sit a spell.

Welcome to the House of Crouse. It's a new year, a time of new beginnings, so in that spirit we have three fascinating men talking about the start of their musical careers. When did they first realize they could make a living playing music? Who influenced them? And how did a Toronto Maple Leafs game almost keep one of them from joining a band? It's our longest and most epic episode yet, so help me welcome Dee Snider, Alan Frew and Gino Vannelli to the House of Crouse "Prelude to Fame" edition.

Welcome to the House of Crouse. C-3PO and me. My inner fourteen year old is still freaking out. Thanks to Anthony Daniels for taking the time to talk about playing one of the most famous movie characters of all time, artificial intelligence, hearing his own voice coming out of a GPS and much more. I didn't call him a mindless philosopher, he didn't call me an overweight glob of grease. We got on quite well.
