Podcasts about Day Off

What can Ferris Bueller teach us about letting go of the plan and actually enjoying the moment we're in?In the first episode of The Still Growing Up Film Club, Cece Fanning revisits the 1986 coming-of-age classic Ferris Bueller's Day Off and the lessons hidden inside one unforgettable day of playing hooky.Through Ferris, Cameron and Sloane's adventure across Chicago, Cece explores spontaneity, friendship, anxiety, masking and the pressure we can put on ourselves to make everything go according to plan. From Ferris's determination to make the day count to Cameron learning to confront his fear, the film offers a reminder that growing up sometimes means taking a chance, finding your people and accepting that life can still be meaningful when it goes off script.For a neurodivergent brain that loves schedules and certainty, perhaps Ferris has something particularly useful to teach us: leave a little room for the unexpected.Follow Cece:

This year's summer movie season proved that the “Toy Story” franchise still has some juice, that “The Odyssey” can spark endless debates, and that “The Invite” might be the sleeper film of the year. But according to Wesley Morris, we're still in a summer movie drought. He can't help himself! His nostalgia for the movies of summers past is as strong as it was last year. So, once again, Wesley invites Sam Anderson, staff writer for The New York Times Magazine, to go back in time. This week, they travel to 1986, where the multiplex marquee reads: “Ruthless People” and “Ferris Bueller's Day Off.” Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Peanut Butter & Biscuits continues down the recap road breaking down Ted Lasso Season 4, Episode 4: “Greyhounds' Day Off”Despite a run of success to start the season, all things are not clicking for the Lady Greyhounds as cliques have started to form based on positions and they are threatening to tear the team apart. The coaches have to come up with a way to break up the cliques to unlock the team's true potential. Meanwhile, Roy and Keeley arrive at an ultimatum point as Keeley wants Roy to go on 10 dates to make sure he's ready to get back together: with Higgins thrown in the middle for some reason. And Tracy Ullman has entered the chat as a badass female investor that Keeley is in love with but Rebecca might feel threatened by. This episode feels like a wonderful throw-back to Two Aces in Season 1 as we get the team finally accepting each other and the Lasso Way. We get a deepening of Keeley and Rebecca's friendship and Kee-OY is finally nearing relaunch, though in the most crazy way possible. How does Ted not know Harry Potter? How many Rachel Carson quotes does Beard know? Is Ferris Bueller the villain? AND ARE WORMS JUST ALL TAIL?!?!

40 years ago this summer, the beloved film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" was released. You might remember this scene: "In 1931, in an effort to stop the... Anyone? Anyone?... The Great Depression, Congress passed the Hawley Smoot Tariff Act which, anyone? Raised, lowered?... Anyone, anyone raised tariffs, to halt The Great Depression. Did that work? Anyone, anyone? Bueller? Bueller?" That was Ben Stein playing the role of a boring economics professor. But that quote doesn't come from the 1986 movie. It's from the 2000 Republican National Convention. In this week's episode of C-SPAN's podcast "Extreme Mortman," we celebrate 40 years of "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" – by hearing politicians talking about the movie – and quoting it verbatim. Which Federal Reserve chairman cited Ferris Bueller?   Which First Lady cited Ferris Bueller?   Which Supreme Court Chief Justice cited Ferris Bueller? And which other politicians have quoted the wit and wisdom of Ferris Bueller? Find out in "Extreme Mortman" –40 years after a legendary movie came out – and found a home in politics.

You can't relax on a free evening because rest isn't the default state you fall back into once demands stop — it's an active shift your nervous system has to make, and years of staying switched on can wear down your ability to make it. Add a quiet belief that rest has to be earned, and even the time you do have starts to feel like something you need to justify. In this episode, Brett Ingram breaks down why your body treats "on" as its baseline, walks through two studies on just how uncomfortable stillness really is for most people, and gives you a single 60-second practice for rebuilding the capacity to come down. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why rest isn't the default you return to when demands stop — it's an active nervous system shift, and shifts are skills that can go rusty How years of staying "switched on" trains your body to treat activation, not calm, as its resting baseline The quiet belief — rest has to be earned — that turns downtime into something you feel guilty taking What the University of Virginia "shock" study reveals about how uncomfortable most people find sitting alone with their own thoughts Why people who believe leisure is wasteful enjoy it less, even while they're doing it Three honest questions to ask yourself the moment you notice you can't settle The 60-second daily practice for rebuilding your capacity to rest — no meditation app required Episode Timestamps [00:00] Cold open — the free evening you can't relax into [01:00] Introduction — what optYOUmize means by real optimization [02:00] Naming the pattern — why this isn't a willpower problem [04:00] The two nervous system modes: activation and recovery [06:00] The belief that rest has to be earned [09:00] Study one — the electric shock experiment [11:00] Study two — why "wasteful" leisure doesn't land [13:00] Three questions to ask when you can't settle [17:00] The 60-second practice [18:00] Closing reflection and the Ferris Bueller line Episode Summary Most advice about rest starts from the wrong assumption: that if you clear your calendar, calm will fill the space automatically. Brett Ingram spends this episode dismantling that assumption, starting with a scene a lot of listeners will recognize — a cleared evening, nothing owed to anyone, and a low hum of restlessness that shows up anyway. The episode opens by ruling out the obvious explanation. This isn't a willpower problem, and telling someone to "try harder to relax" is a contradiction most people have already tested and failed on a vacation somewhere. The real explanation, Brett argues, is that rest is not the resting state you assume it is. It's an active shift the nervous system has to make between two modes: an activated mode that gets you through deadlines and demands, and a restorative mode that actually repairs and recovers. A healthy life moves between them — [the rhythm between activation and recovery] — but years spent mostly in the activated mode teach your body to treat "on" as the default, not the exception. When the demands finally stop, the system doesn't glide down. It idles high, because high is the only setting it remembers well. That's the physical layer. The second layer is the story people carry about what rest means. Brett names a quiet equation most of us absorbed without ever agreeing to it: rest is what you get after — after the list is done, after you've earned it. "Rest is not a reward for completion," he says, "and in modern life, completion never actually arrives." The list refills. The inbox regenerates overnight. If rest has to be earned first, it never comes, and any rest taken early starts to feel like something stolen. Two pieces of research anchor the episode and take it well past personal anecdote. The first comes from a set of studies led by psychologist Timothy Wilson at the University of Virginia, published in Science in 2014. Participants were left alone in a plain room for six to fifteen minutes with nothing to do but think — no phone, no task. Given the option to press a button that delivered a mild electric shock they'd already said they'd pay to avoid, about two-thirds of men and a quarter of women pressed it anyway rather than sit with their own thoughts. One man pressed it 190 times. The takeaway isn't that something is wrong with you if reaching for your phone in the first ninety seconds of quiet feels compulsive — it's one of the more universal human reflexes there is. The second study, led by Gabriela Tonietto and Selin Malkoc and published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology in 2021, found that people who believe leisure is fundamentally wasteful enjoy their leisure less — even while they're doing it — and that the same belief correlates with lower reported happiness and higher stress, anxiety, and depression. Put the two studies together and the picture sharpens: a nervous system trained to stay up, a mind that finds stillness genuinely uncomfortable, and a belief that rest isn't worth taking even when it's available. Brett's answer isn't another system to optimize. It's three questions to run when you notice you can't settle — am I resting or just less stimulated, what kind of tired am I, and what's the smallest amount of nothing I can tolerate — followed by a practice deliberately built to be too small to fail: once a day, take sixty seconds of time you'd normally fill and simply don't fill it. Not thirty minutes. Sixty seconds. The goal, as he puts it, "is not to be excellent at resting. The goal is to let some of your life be unoptimized on purpose." Resources Mentioned "Just Think: The Challenges of the Disengaged Mind" — Timothy Wilson et al., Science, 2014 — the study on people choosing electric shocks over sitting alone with their thoughts — Read the study "Viewing Leisure as Wasteful Undermines Enjoyment" — Gabriela Tonietto, Selin A. Malkoc, Rebecca Walker Reczek, and Michael I. Norton, Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, 2021 — Read the study Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986) — Referenced for the closing line: "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." Frequently Asked Questions Why can't I relax even when I finally have free time? Because rest isn't the default state your body returns to when demands stop — it's an active shift the nervous system has to make, and that shift is a skill. If you've spent years mostly in an activated, switched-on mode, your body starts treating that as baseline, so when the pressure lifts, your system keeps idling high instead of settling down. Is feeling restless during downtime a sign of anxiety? Not necessarily. Low-level restlessness when demands stop is a common, well-documented pattern, not a diagnosis. If the inability to switch off is constant, heavy, or accompanied by dread, that's worth discussing with a professional — but for most people it's simply a nervous system and belief system that adapted to years of low-grade activation. Why do I feel guilty when I'm not being productive? Many people absorb an unspoken rule that rest has to be earned — through completing tasks, being useful, or "deserving" a break. Because that list never actually finishes, rest taken before it's "earned" can feel like theft, which shows up as guilt on an otherwise free evening. What's the difference between resting and just being less stimulated? Scrolling, half-watching a show, or refreshing the news lowers stimulation but doesn't shift your body into genuine recovery — it just distracts. Brett's test: after the activity, do you feel more like yourself, or just less wound up? Genuine rest passes that test; numbing doesn't. What was the study about people choosing electric shocks over sitting quietly? In a set of 2014 studies led by psychologist Timothy Wilson at the University of Virginia, participants left alone with nothing to do for six to fifteen minutes were given the option to shock themselves. About two-thirds of men and a quarter of women chose the shock rather than sit with their own thoughts — evidence of just how uncomfortable undirected stillness is for most people. How do I actually start practicing rest if it feels uncomfortable? Start absurdly small. Once a day, take sixty seconds of time you'd normally fill — the wait for coffee, the first minute in the car — and simply don't fill it. The discomfort in that first minute isn't a sign it's not working; it's the sensation of a rusty capacity being used again.

*recorded June 7th, 2026 (#KNICKSIN5)In the penultimate episode of our Halloween Perennials season, take the scenic route with us down to Friendship, Maine, where we're set for a spooky stay at Whipstaff Manor. That's right, Your faves are crittin' the one and only Casper (1995), a certified 90s baby classic and a movie that hit as re-runs during ABC Family's 31 Nights of Halloween (IYKYK!!!). Speaking of hit, Casper is definitely one of those movies that hit different watching it as an adult. We talk about that along with some ghostly tropes that the film broke or outright disregarded, one incredibly taut three-act structure, the anchor that was the theme of grief (a reoccurring one this season), and how the interpersonal relationships of characters like Casper and Kat helped define the heartfelt core of this spectral romp. We hope you enjoy because we wanna know: can we keep you? …At least for the length of the episode. I mean, it's longer than what Capser got (Melle is still mad about it, y'all).

In the opening hour of today's show, Mike Mulligan and David Haugh discuss the Chicago White Sox growing their AL Central lead and the Chicago Cubs getting ready to face Paul Skenes Later, Mully and Haugh discuss the top six sports stories of the day in the Pick 6 segment

On the 40th anniversary of Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Ellen E Jones and Mark Kermode look at films that confine their action to a single day (and occasionally, night). From the high-stakes urban odyssey of Martin Scorsese's After Hours to the quiet contemplation of Agnès Varda's Cléo from 5 to 7, what difference does a day make to cinema?Ellen talks to screenwriter and novelist David Nicholls, whose international bestseller One Day followed a couple who meet on 15th July 1988, revisiting their lives on the same date every year for the next two decades.She also talks to creative writing professor and Academy Award-nominated screenwriter Kim Krizan, who co-wrote Before Sunrise and Before Sunset, the first two films in director Richard Linklater's time-constrained romantic drama trilogy. Meanwhile, Mark speaks to writer-director and Ferris Bueller superfan Emma Seligman, whose breakthrough feature Shiva Baby wrought extraordinary tension and comedy from the course of a single afternoon. And Mark also speaks to Danish-Norwegian director Joachim Trier. Now perhaps best known for Oscar nominees Sentimental Value and The Worst Person In The World, Trier made one of modern cinema's finest single-day films with 2011's Oslo, August 31st, which follows recovering heroin addict Anders over the course of a day and night. Producer: Jane Long A Prospect Street production for BBC Radio 4

Noah Smith is a multidisciplinary visual storyteller specializing in UX design. With a background in film, Noah's also a big, big fan of Ferris Bueller's Day Off, the 1986 comedy that's also full of action, drama, and sprawling musical numbers. Ferris, an extremely popular teenager, skips school and with his best friend Cameron and his girlfriend Sloane, they embark on a series of adventures. What about the possibility of Ferris being a figment of Cameron's imagination, the so-called Fight Club theory? And how does Ferris connect to Spider-Man? Plus, the movie's small but memorable baseball moments make it perfect for the month of March and Major League Baseball's season openers.-Noah Smith's true love for all things 80s includes some pretty rad engagement photos that made their way into People and Huffpost. An accomplished woodworker, he's designed tables, bowls, cutting boards, spoons, and everything in-between, a hobby he began in 2020. For a few years in college he produced music (under the name, Hard Mix) and eventually signed to a record label.https://www.noahdanielsmith.com/https://www.instagram.com/noahdanielsmith/https://www.huffpost.com/entry/omg-these-80s-themed-engagement-pics_n_5978cffce4b0e201d57a8f96https://people.com/human-interest/couple-80s-throwback-engagement-pics/-Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091042/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098795/https://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2012/06/why-ferris-bueller-never-existed/327276/https://www.businessinsider.com/the-ferris-bueller-fight-club-theory-and-other-fan-conspiracies-sending-people-on-reddit-into-a-tailspin-2015-6https://www.slashfilm.com/503532/the-ferris-bueller-fight-club-theory/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiMuj85ngEohttps://theweek.com/speedreads/540187/john-hughes-wrote-ferris-buellers-day-6-days-79-other-facts-about-80shttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Rose_House-Pop culture discussedhttps://www.bustle.com/p/the-ferris-bueller-reference-in-spider-man-homecoming-you-mightve-missed-68654https://typographica.org/on-typography/corbis-buys-veer-whither-the-fonts/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooney_(band) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcazL5yNukw-Other movies and shows discussed:Alfie (1966)Deadpool (2016)Fight Club (1999)Hello Dolly!

Jake Hildreth, Principal Security Consultant at Semperis and Microsoft MVP, is back on the podcast fresh off a trip to PowerShell Conference Europe, where he and Andrew co-presented a session on securing PowerShell. Jake also gave his own talk on Stepper, his open-source module for building resumable, step-by-step scripts — a tool that's grown considerably since his last appearance on the show. The two dig into what makes PSConf EU such a standout event, the refreshing lack of elitism in the PowerShell community, and the updates Jake's been shipping, including named steps, built-in logging, and secret suppression. The conversation winds into burnout, the importance of actually taking your vacation days, and how the same mindset that drives good automation — knowing when to stop and reset — applies to taking care of yourself. Key Takeaways: Stepper has gotten some meaningful quality-of-life updates since Jake last appeared on the show, including named steps, automatic logging, and the ability to suppress secrets from logs — making it more practical for real-world production scripts. PSConf EU punches above its weight as a conference experience: technically deep but genuinely welcoming at every skill level, with none of the elitism that can creep into security-adjacent events. Your vacation time is a benefit, not a backlog item. Jake makes the case that getting good at separating your work time from your off time isn't a soft skill — it's a sustainability practice. Guest Bio: Jake Hildreth is a Principal Security Consultant at Semperis, a Microsoft MVP in both PowerShell and Identity/Access, and a recovering sysadmin with 25 years of IT under his belt. He's probably best known for building Locksmith, the open-source AD CS auditing and remediation tool, but he's also the creator of Stepper, Deck, BlueTuxedo, and PowerPUG! — a suite of tools designed to make identity security a little less painful for the admins who live in it. When he's not untangling Kerberos or chasing down ADCS misconfigurations, he goes by "horse" in the PowerShell Discords.

We started talking about celebrities recently who have used the ‘do you know who I am?” to get out of trouble with law enforcement. Eddie shared a funny story of a senior citizen getting a racy license plate. Bobby shared how he thinks he may get sick from Cyclosporiasis after eating his dinner last night. We talked to listeners who have been hit with the illness and what they have experienced. It really opens our eyes. Lunchbox shares that he needs a day off and asks Bobby for a favor. Bobby has a creative way to fill his request. Amy opens up about a huge moment in her relationship with her daughter after she promised she'd know exactly how to care for Amy when she's older thanks to a new job working.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tony Rodriguez joins us one last time for a sequel episode of sorts to our one about gay Looney Tunes shorts.

A fake sick day, a borrowed Ferrari, a principal on the warpath, and one unforgettable parade through downtown Chicago. In this Backtrack, we're revisiting Ferris Bueller's Day Off, John Hughes' classic 1986 comedy about skipping school, seizing the moment, and somehow making it all look effortless. Forty years later, we'll talk about why Ferris, Cameron, Sloane, and the city of Chicago still connect with Gen X fans — and why life really does move pretty fast.

He's the man behind Descendants, High School Musical, Hocus Pocus, and Newsies, but Kenny Ortega's journey to becoming a Disney Legend started long before Mickey Mouse called. This is the story of the creative force Disney keeps turning to when they need to remind audiences why they fell in love with Disney magic. From starting out as a dancer in touring productions of Hair to choreographing music videos for Madonna and Elton John, stadium tours for Michael Jackson, and the iconic "Twist and Shout" sequence in Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Kenny Ortega was shaping pop culture for a decade before Disney ever picked up the phone. When they finally did in 1988, it kicked off a 30-year partnership that would define childhoods for millions. What makes Ortega different is that he was never just a company man. He brought rock tours, Olympic ceremonies, and fountain choreography from the Vegas strip into everything he made for Disney.

“Bueller… Bueller… anyone?”   Oh, yeahhh… it's been 40 years since Ferris Bueller famously convinced girlfriend Sloane and best bud Cameron to skip school together for a whirlwind day in Chicago. And pop culture has never been the same.    In this fun podcast we celebrate the 1986 hit movie that's been called a cultural milestone: “Ferris Bueller's Day Off.”   What (and who) inspired John Hughes as he was writing the script? Why did Matthew Broderick hesitate to accept the role of Ferris? What are some fun behind-the-scenes stories about the parade and art museum scenes? Why did both Matthew Broderick and Mia Sara find filming challenging? And what tragedy were two of the cast members involved in after the film's release? We discuss all this and more!   In the words of Ferris, “Life moves pretty fast…” So be sure not to miss it, OR this podcast episode!   Special thanks to one of our current members, Rebekah, for helping us to keep the tea brewing!

We don't really know what got into them. Arthur Fery keeps British hopes alive by winning a five-set thriller over Grigor Dimitrov, but is that the worst defeat of the Bulgarian's career?

In this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase to have a field day. When you say someone or a bunch of people are going to have a field day, it means they're going to be really excited and eager and, really looking forward to doing something.I'm sorry, I'm having trouble explaining this one for some reason. Maybe because I'm doing this lesson in the morning. But here we go. Let's say that in the World cup, they found out that the referees were being paid money to decide the outcome of the games.The journalists would have a field day with that information. The people who write news articles would be super eager and excited to interview people and to find out the true story. By the way, this isn't a true story. I'm pretty sure the referees are very impartial and a good judge of the game.But if there was a scandal in World cup, there would certainly be a lot of reporters who would have a field day researching the story and writing about the story and talking about the story. The other phrase I wanted to teach you today is the phrase a day off. Happy Canada Day.It's Canada Day here in Ontario, Canada. I guess it's Canada Day in the whole country. And I have a day off now. I'm a teacher, so I kind of had the day off anyways. Notice I switched to the there. When you say a day off, you're talking in general I have a few days off during the school year.I have a few days off during the school year. But if I was to be working now, I could say I took the day off today because I'm going to celebrate Canada Day. So, anyways, a day off is a day where you don't need to work. So to review to have a field day is to be really excited to do something.When Jen feeds the ducks or the chickens, they have a field day eating all of the food. But when she first puts it in their little area. And then the second phrase, a day off is simply to have a day where you don't need to work. In Canada, you get a day off almost every month.It's kind of cool. I hope your country has the same. But hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. This comment is from Vitor. I remember you mentioned a book called Project Hail Mary a while back. I'm actually reading it now. I'm not sure if you recommended it during a live stream, but either way I'm reading it.Thank you, Bob. And my response? You're welcome. I'm glad you are reading it. It's a great book and as a bonus, it's also a great movie. If I were you, I would read it in English and then watch the movie in English. A great way to study. So thank you, Vitor, for that comment. Yeah, that's great.That's a great movie. Great book, great movie. Andy Weir is the author. I highly recommend that you, read more of his books as well. I think Jen's waiting to drive away. You can drive away. She doesn't, she doesn't want to make noise while I'm making a video.So I do appreciate her concern. But as you know, we live on an active farm. There are things happening. Every once in a while you're going to hear somebody doing something in the background of one of my videos. So you might be thinking, Bob, you just said you have a day off and now Jen is going out to work.Well, farmers don't often get a day off. Both Jen and I will be doing quite a bit of work, later today. It's simply the way it goes when you are a farmer. Plants don't stop growing. Animals need food to eat. And so when we take a day off, we usually get one of our kids to do all the work for us.And we are planning to do that a couple of times this summer. We might take, next week, Friday, we might take the day off. And, I think there's another Friday towards the end of the month. We might take that day off as well. Anyways, thanks for watching.You guys are awesome. I hope you don't mind this one being a little late. Instead of making it on a Tuesday, I'm making it on the actual Wednesday, that it comes out. So if you're seeing this, it was just filmed at 7:58am and there is a mosquito biting me.

 What happens when two people with complicated pasts — failed marriages, sobriety journeys, and a chance meeting at a 4th of July party — fall in love but decide not to move in together? Claudia and Jonathan join us for a conversation as layered and surprising as the indie film they made together, D(e)AD — a project born from personal heartbreak, an ex-husband who may or may not have faked cancer, and the haunting feeling that the not-so-great people from our past never fully leave us. They'll take you behind the scenes of making a movie with friends and family, funding it through Kickstarter, and then getting it into theaters one screen at a time — from cities across the US to London to Bosnia — all while navigating the soul-crushing gauntlet of festival rejections, fake IMDB credits, and music licensing processes that take six months just to say no. Along the way, Claudia opens up about using her parents and daughter as the raw material of her art, and why storytelling is how she survives. We also get into Jonathan's origins — from writing a fake Nightline to a history with cartoons and the discipline of keeping art beautifully simple — and the question that ties it all together: would you trade your messy, painful, hilarious past for a different one?  And how, bubble wrap can save your sanity. Bio:   Claudia Lonow started her career as an actress, playing Michele Lee's chubby, loud-mouthed teenage daughter on “Knots Landing.”  Favorite episodes include: the one where she has kidney failure and is saved by Donna Mills kidney; the one where she runs away with the town murderer, “Chip,” and drives her mother to drugs; and the one where she almost loses her virginity, but instead winds up donning clown make up and singing “Put On A Happy Face” with her mom. Lonow's next career was waitressing.  She did stand up comedy for a while, working across the country and doing some television.  When she gave her best joke to Sarah Silverman, and Silverman killed with it, a writer was born. Her television-writing career took off when she wrote a semi-autobiographical spec pilot about a former nighttime soap opera television actress who gets sent to rehab, called “Rude Awakening.”  Showtime bought the show, which ran for 55 episodes.  Lonow has been creating and writing television ever since: “Good Girls Don't” for Oxygen; “Accidentally On Purpose” for CBS and “How To Live With Your Parents (For The Rest Of Your Life)” for ABC.  Lonow moved into directing with the award winning shorts, “Bummed” and “Keep Calm and Tampon.” Lonow just completed directing and acting in her first feature, the very indie film, “D(e)AD” written by and starring her daughter, Isabella Roland, her partner Jonathan Schmock and pretty much everyone else in her family. She is currently developing various other TV and film projects, has gotten back to stand up and is threatening to do a solo show. Jonathan Schmock is an actor, director, comedian, show creator, artist and Emmy nominated writer, (group Emmy but still). As a stand-up he was half of the comedy team The Funny Boys with Jim Vallely. As an actor you've seen him in such varied things as Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Star Trek Enterprise, The Big Bang Theory, Arrested Development, Shameless, The Simpsons, The Mentalist (the guy who did it) and NCIS Los Angeles (the guy who didn't) among others. As a writer/director he co-created Sabrina, The Teenage Witch and Brotherly Love and worked as an executive producer/writer on Dharma and Greg and Good Girls Don't, Real Time and many more. Most recently he acted in and produced the indie film D(e)AD, which can be seen and purchased online, (hint.)  His editorial cartoons can be seen at jonathanschmock.com. His paintings have appeared in a group show at the L.A. County Museum of Art, (no shit.) He hopes to continue writing about himself in the third person for many years to come.

What's harder than building out and opening a new cocktail bar in Williamsburg Brooklyn? Building out and opening a new dance floor underneath the bar you just opened. That's the task Patty Dennison & Ally Marrone set for themselves when they opened up Kinda Nice and Shenanigans earlier this year and in the next few months respectively. They sit down and talk about the buildout, what makes their partnership special and unique, and why they think the high/dive concept in bars has captured so many hearts and minds (and awards) over the last few years.PLUS, does it seem like those touchscreen soda machines are everywhere these days?

Episode 787: When people talk about the summer movies of 1986, the conversation usually starts with Top Gun and ends somewhere around Aliens, The Karate Kid Part II, and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. It was one of the strongest movie summers of the decade, packed with blockbusters that still dominate pop-culture conversations 40 years later. But every great movie season leaves a few worthy titles behind. This week on Stuck in the '80s, we revisit four films from the summer of 1986 that may not get the attention they deserve today: SpaceCamp, Legal Eagles, Nothing in Common, and Ruthless People. Each offered something unique, even if they were overshadowed by bigger releases. Support Our Sponsors Ready for the ultimate nostalgia vacation?
