We're kicking off The John Candy Film Festival this month with a trio of films showcasing the comedic and dramatic talents of our favorite Canadian, John Candy. Join us for a chat about the movie, Garrett's recent location scouting trip to Chicago, and what we like (and dislike) about the 1991 romantic comedy Only the Lonely, directed by Chris Columbus, produced by John Hughes, and also starring Maureen O'Hara, Ally Sheedy, and Jim Belushi.

Be sure to join us next week for our second John Candy film, just in time for Thanksgiving: Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.

If you're looking for a fun interview with some film geeks, look no further. Tonight, Chris and Garrett sit down with veteran makeup artist Jeff Goodwin to talk about his decades in the film industry working with David Lynch, Dino De Laurentis, Stephen King, Scott Derrickson, and too many other names and titles to count

Call me biased, but this may be the best interview we've had yet—and we've had some great ones! Join us for our chat with Jeff Goodwin and be amazed at the fact that there's a good chance that your favorite movies are ones Jeff worked on (Black Phone, Scream, Cat's Eye, Silver Bullet, The Night Flier, and on and on...)

Chris and Garrett take flight into the world of The Night Flier (1997). Join them as they explore the eerie setting and atmosphere, the memorable performances (Miguel Ferrer, John Bennes, and Julie Entwisle, to name just a few), and the abandoned sequel that could have been. There's talk of vampire aviation, Greg Nicotero's makeup magic, and Stephen King's involvement in the movie. It's a spooky conclusion to "A Very Stephen King Halloween" that's a fitting end to the spooky season. You've been with us since takeoff—now hang on for our landing. Don't miss this thrilling episode!

A TMMSP first! The majority of this episode was recorded in Garrett's car because of high school football and being old. Ok, Garrett's son had a football game (the last one of the season) and I'm old and need to go to bed after watching Murder She Wrote or Diagnosis Murder. Ok, maybe not, but this was a fun episode. We also take advantage of the generative AI tools out there to come up with some segment ideas for the episode including:

Next week: The Night Flier (1997). Find out what happens when you cross small aircraft, a vampire, a tabloid journalist, and a Wilmington, NC airport. Join us for the final installment of "A Very Stephen King Halloween" next week!

This week, our "A Very Stephen King Halloween" continues with a look at the 1983 movie Cujo, directed by Lewis Teague (Cat's Eye) and starring some of Chris' favorite actors, Dee Wallace Stone and Christopher Stone. Chris is solo for most of this episode until he gets attacked by the family dog, Sadie. Of course, the attack involves mostly licking and trying to bite the microphone...

Next week: Chris and Garrett venture into The Dead Zone (1983)!

If the alligator in the sewers doesn't get you, then the werewolf of Tarker's Mills might! Join us for a look at two films we got to see on the big screen recently thanks to Alamo Drafthouse in Raleigh, NC! First up, we dive deep for a look at Lewis Teague's Alligator, written by John Sayles and starring the late great Robert Forster, from 1980.

Then, we break out The Peace Maker baseball bat and load up with Silver Bullet (1985), a movie Garrett and I covered a while back in a movie commentary episode (Episode 34, Uncle Red's Done Got Another Divorce). Seeing it on the big screen at Alamo was a dream come true, as this was one of the many films we couldn't see on the big screen because it was rated R and we were underage!

We've got a lot of love for these two films, which is why we're thrilled to present this new episode to you, listeners! And check out these movies if you haven't already!!!
