UH OH! This week the Coen Brothers take us into the folk scene of 1960s Greenwich Village.

Come for Poe Dameron and Kylo Ren singing in harmony, stay for the search for the cat's scrotum.

Alright folks, buckle up! We are genuinely SO excited for today's episode because we're talking about what might just be one of the absolute best films we'll ever cover on this show. We're diving into Clive Barker's chilling urban legend masterpiece – Candyman. You know the one: grad students poking the hornet's nest of folklore, getting in terrifyingly deep. And that performance? The late, great Tony Todd is iconic, defining a generation of horror. If you haven't seen Candyman yet... seriously, you gotta fix that.

Broadway's "The Prom" stars Caitlin Kinnunen and Isabelle Mccalla join us to unravel the chameleon-like career of Jim Carrey, sharing laughs as we reminisce on his metamorphosis from rubber-faced comedian to a thespian of depth. Today we're talking about the forgotten Coppola romantic comedy called "Peggy Sue Got Married," where Jim Carrey plays the best friend of a very campy Nicolas Cage.

Our stroll down memory lane brings us face to face with the rhino scene that defined "Ace Ventura" and the sublime moments of "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," interspersed with personal stories that paint a fuller picture of Carrey's unique trajectory. It's an episode punctuated with chuckles and reflections, much like the roles that have shaped Carrey’s legacy.

This is an extra special treat, we were given an opportunity to speak with filmmaker Sav Rodgers about his experience making the incredible documentary Chasing Chasing Amy, analyzing his relationship with the film, and the film's relationship with culture. We discuss how difficult it is to put yourself out there in a documentary, awkward interviews, and the musicals Sav would love to adapt to screen. This was a wonderful interview and you should give it a listen.
