If you're not listening to the Chasing Chevy Chase podcast, here's an episode to whet your appetite... Chevy Chase takes an unexpected turn into sci-fi thriller territory with Memoirs of an Invisible Man (1992). Directed by John Carpenter and adapted from H.F. Saint's novel, the film follows Nick Halloway (Chase), who becomes invisible after a freak laboratory accident. As he grapples with the perks and pitfalls of invisibility, he also tries to evade ruthless CIA operative David Jenkins (Sam Neill) and connect with Alice Monroe (Daryl Hannah). It's an ambitious mash-up of comedy, romance, and paranoia that didn't quite land with audiences or critics at the time but remains one of the oddest entries in Chase's career. Mike, Mark, and Chris break down the film's tonal shifts, behind-the-scenes clashes, and its place in both Chase's and Carpenter's filmographies.Visit http://www.chasingchevypodcast.com for more... Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

Send us a textWhat makes a Christmas tradition stick—the flavor, the place, or the story you tell about it? We gathered five friends from across the map to trade brutally honest eggnog takes, map out Christmas Eve and Day rituals, and argue for the movies that still make us feel like kids. From beach fires in North Carolina to church services and the Feast of the Seven Fishes, the thread running through it all is simple: small moments, strong memories.We dive into the comfort classics—Chevy Chase's Christmas Vacation, the original cartoon Grinch, both Home Alones, Polar Express, and the underappreciated Charlie Brown specials—and shout out favorite characters like Buddy the Elf, Ralphie, Yukon Cornelius, and the Heat Miser vs. Snow Miser duo. Then we hop towns to find real places that look like movie sets: Chagrin Falls and Hudson in Ohio, Carmel's rink and German market in Indiana, Sugarcreek's Amish charm, and West Virginia's Berkeley Springs with its storybook main street. If you're building a holiday road trip, we've got a ready-made list: Oglebay Festival of Lights, Pittsburgh's PPG Place rink and the Point, Cleveland's Zoo Lights, downtown Willoughby's Light Up Night, and the A Christmas Story House.Food gets personal fast. Ham and scalloped potatoes, beef tenderloin, and an avalanche of Christmas cookies take center stage, with regional favorites like Sarris chocolate adding bite. We also take on the live-sports-on-Christmas question (most of us say stay home unless it's a great NBA matchup) and rank gifts—dinner out tops the list, edging gift cards, with candy a distant third. The why is clear: shared experiences beat stuff when the goal is connection.If you're craving ideas for holiday fun, movie nostalgia, or new traditions that actually fit your life, this coSubscribe for exclusive content: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1530455/support Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREETactical BrotherhoodThe Tactical Brotherhood is a movement to support America.Dubby EnergyFROM GAMERS TO GYM JUNKIES TO ENTREPRENEURS, OUR PRODUCT IS FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BE BETTER.ShankitgolfOur goal here at Shankitgolf is for everyone to have a great time on and off the golf courseSweet Hands SportsElevate your game with Sweet Hands Sports!

Plug in the lights, grab the eggnog, and brace yourself for a full Griswold-level meltdown. To end our holiday movie run 3 Guys and a Flick decks the halls with a deep dive into National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. We break down the cast, iconic scenes, and behind-the-scenes trivia that turned Clark Griswold's perfect family Christmas into one of the most quoted holiday movies of all time. From the legendary light display to the unforgettable Cousin Eddie payoff, we debate Chevy Chase's endlessly optimistic (and endlessly unhinged) Clark, share our favorite moments, and wrestle with the big question: does this movie still hold up as a holiday staple — or is it more of a seasonal endurance test? Expect personal takes, final ratings, and plenty of laughs as we go full Griswold in our latest festive review.

Send us a textI love the scene in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation where Chevy Chase is in the attic and he steps on board after board that hits him in the face.  I used to almost pee my pants over that part.  This music video for Blame It On the Mistletoe reminds me of the sentimental scene that follows the slap-happy board face-smacking scene. Clark found old family movies and he's reminiscing. Colleen was purposeful in having the video have that feel as well as a nostalgic timeless feel to the song. Colleen used her contacts during the pandemic to get this video created.  She remembered asking a bandmate and his wife to do a kissing scene since you know, no actors during the pandemic were going to do a kissing scene, LOL!!  Colleen shared about the venue, The Standard, in which the video was recorded. Colleen has performed there many times and met a lot of stars throughout her singing career. She had her friend, Nikki Williams, sing back up on this song. Nikki has some pretty impressive chops and is the go-to in Nashville for songwriting. Colleen gave the inside scoop as to how she and Nikki became friends.  Nikki was all too happy to back up Colleen.  I hope you all check it out but I don't hope for you to get it stuck in your head for a week, like I did!  I "blame it on the mistletoe...." This is on my personal Christmas playlist and will stay there for all future Christmases. Full Show Notes 

No matter what they do musically from now until eternity, New York rockers Wheatus will always be known as the Dirtbag band. The fact that Teenage Dirtbag is probably bigger today than when it first smashed the air waves 25 years ago is made even more impressive when you factor in that Teenage Dirtbag was, in fact, Wheatus' debut single.While no one could have foreseen or even guessed the impact that one song would have on not only the band but a whole generation of movies through to fashion trends, its enduring appeal has, at the very least, kept Wheatus and frontman Brendan Brown young at heart and ready for the next adventure. The viral "Teenage Dirtbag photos" trend on TikTok has attracted over a million participants, including celebs like Madonna, Lady Gaga, Mark Ruffalo, Lil Nas X, Jon Bon Jovi, Chevy Chase and the hashtag #teenagedirtbag has been viewed over 2 billion times. The song's universal appeal has also led to it being featured in Netflix's Big Mouth, Disney's Cruel Summer, and, in 2023, the song incredibly re-entered the UK Top 40 charts.Not bad for a song about life in general.While Wheatus' musical journey exploded from the very outset because of that track, their sudden success was casually taken in the band's stride, who refused to succumb to the weight of public expectation and continued on their own trajectory that somehow has always managed to stay on a similar path with their famous debut song.The band are regular visitors to these shores and have a devoted and loyal following, which in turn allows Brendan and co the freedom and ability to make these regular and always fun stopovers. They are one of the few bands who need no reason or gimmick to draw crowds in Australia, which is why the fact that Wheatus' tour in January next year to celebrate 25 years since their world was turned upside down has already been received as a celebration of music rather than a clever marketing strategy to keep the tills ringing.Always happy to chat, Brendan joined HEAVY recently to discuss the tour and the continued success of Teenage Dirtbag, including their birthday present to themselves by playing their debut album in full."We've been playing that album for years," he smiled, "we never laid off of it. We didn't have to relearn a thing. There are a couple of tweaks we have had to make to the back catalogue to make sure that we get everything in order, should anybody call out anything. But you know, we don't do any set lists. It's all request sets. So, kids are shouting, people are shouting and telling us what to play. You say it, we play it, that's how we do it."We bring up the massive success of Teenage Dirtbag and ask if it sometimes feels like going through the motions, having played it so often."No, man, absolutely not," he stressed. "Never. It's a weird song, you know. I hadn't considered that it would ever be a single. I'd kind of written that off. I didn't think it could be one because it was too long, and it had this meandering story and switched characters and all that stuff. So I didn't think that it would happen. The way that it has is incredible. I mean, I don't know what to make of it, but as a song, I'm quite proud of it."In the full interview, Brendan talked more about the band's upcoming 2026 tour of Australia celebrating the 25th anniversary of their self-titled album, starting in Brisbane on January 15 and concluding with three shows in New Zealand. He confirmed plans to take a break over Christmas to recharge before the tour and noted that the band has consistently performed songs from the album, negating the need for extensive relearning. The band will feature all request sets, allowing fans to choose their preferred songs.We discussed the success of Teenage Dirtbag, with Brendan sharing insights into the song's origins, it's recording in his mother's basement, and the album's snarky tone reflecting his frustrations in the music industry. Talk turned to the song's lasting impact on audiences and his initial thoughts on Teenage Dirtbag, including how he didn't really have much confidence in the song when it was first written and plenty more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

He's one of the most beloved characters on the big and small screen, and I've had the great pleasure of getting to know Chevy Chase and his family. Talent aside, this comedic genius is a huge animal advocate, which is just another reason to love him more.

They say “you can never go home again.” But maybe, what they meant was that you just simply shouldn't. Original Not Ready for Prime Time Player and first breakout star of SNL, Chevy Chase returns for his second time hosting and it does not take long for things to go off the rails. An obviously impaired Chevy is covered in flop sweat, has trouble reading his lines, and at times struggles with the English language. Not to be outdone, musical guest Marianne Faithfull arrives at Saturday Night Live equally impaired – if not more. She struggles through two performers off her comeback album, Broken English, and at times seems to be someplace else.  These two combine for one of the greatest – and most infamous – trainwrecks in show history.And what would a trainwreck be without The SNL in Review's legendary Andy Hoglund on hand to help sort through it all? Andy joins us to defend the musical guest, give his sympathies to Harry Shearer, and debate the pros and cons of drug use.Make sure to listen all the way through to the end to hear a snippet of one of the tracks off Chevy's debut album. It is….AMAZING!---------------------------------Subscribe today!

I'm pcmc and you're not. Welcome to an all new episode of pcmc. Your one-stop-shop for pop culture musings, celebrations, and ephemera! On today's show, host Mike Bongiorno is joined, once again, by Vin Forte, and they continue last week's deep dive into the dark and desperate world of failed late-night talk shows. Today's subject: The Chevy Chase Show (1993). Like many a failed talk show before it, this show ran for only one season. Chevy Chase was once the biggest comedy star in the world, but bad decisions and increasingly bad behavior left him on the outs with the American public. When Fox wanted to get into the late-night game, they thought Chevy would be the perfect fit for their young, edgy network. It did not go well. Mike and Vin review the first episode of the show and actually disagree on its value. Listen in for who liked it and who didn't.

(Orig pub date 8/15/23) In the early morning of January 21st, 1935 two employees of the Capital Transit Company in Chevy Chase, Maryland were cold-bloodedly gunned down.

"Are we living in the junk drawer of time?" Sandy and Tricia kick off this episode with a hilarious and oddly profound question that sets the tone for a morning full of laughs, nostalgia, and unexpected insights. From quirky birthday shoutouts (Chevy Chase is 82!) to a heartfelt tribute to the legendary Dick Van Dyke, who's still dancing at 99, this episode blends humor with admiration. Tricia shares a touching story about Coldplay's tribute to Van Dyke, including a poolside moment with his 74-year-old son that will leave you smiling. The couple dives into a list of things people just don't get the appeal of—like loud bars, celebrity worship, and trendy water bottles—offering their own takes with signature wit. Sandy's confession about his broken finger and Tricia's loyalty to her Yeti tumbler are just a few of the personal gems that make this episode feel like a chat with old friends.You'll also learn:Why the F-22 fighter jet has only three air-to-air kills (and why that's actually a good thing)How Luke Combs just dethroned Garth Brooks as the highest-selling country artist of all timeWhat a “trilemma” and “quadrilemma” are—and why you'll want to use them in your next rant 

Today on the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to Nikki Nash, daughter of musician, trombonist Dick Nash. Now, you may not know the face or the name, Dick Nash but you certainly know his work with Henry Mancini, or should we say Hank Mancini with some of his best known work. Before the Wrecking Crew, Dick and a small group of side-men WERE the Wrecking Crew, playing on hundreds of studio dates for film, TV and major label albums in the 50s and 60s. But as we learn, Dick Nash didn't take every date offered for a very specific reason. Our conversation with Nikki centered around her new book, Collateral Stardust: Chasing Warren Beatty and Other Foolish Things, an autobiography about her life in and around show business that is one hell of a read. Some of the things we talk about in our conversation with Nikki include notable run-ins with everyone from the aforementioned Warren Beatty, as well as Dennis Miller, Louise Lasser, Don Cornelius, Robert Hays, the Black Panthers, Robert Altman and many others. We also discuss long-lost LA restaurants like The Old World and The Luau, the best toast, the job of an A.D. behind the camera, addiction, painting, depression, growing up in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles and much more. Nikki was open, honest, funny, matter-of-fact, attentive and gave us all we could handle in discussing her life and her book. And like her book, our interview was breezy and also had a lot of depth below the surface. But don't take my word for it, take a listen to this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast and see for yourself. Everyone has a story.
