This week on Radio Labyrinth Podcast, we welcome Dan Pasternack — producer, historian, and lifelong comedy fan — for a wide-ranging conversation about his career and some incredible projects he's bringing to audiences in 2025.

He's also behind the John Candy: I Like Me documentary with Ryan Reynolds, which is hitting the road for special events, and later this year he'll be touring Stand By Me with the surviving cast to mark its enduring legacy. Beyond his producing work, Dan is a serious comedy collector with over 500 autographed comedy albums in his archive — a passion we dive into along with plenty of behind-the-scenes tales from his unique career.

TIFF turns 50 with celebs, controversy, and Carney suggesting that we're the John Candy of global trade. As the Toronto International Film Festival struggles to find its way in a changing film landscape, it leans into Canadiana with buzzy premieres from Canadian directors. But with its mishandling of controversial documentaries the last two years, can TIFF meet the moment?

Before Hollywood, Planes, Trains & Automobiles, Uncle Buck, and Splash, John Candy was the heart of SCTV and Toronto's Second City. Paul Myers, author of John Candy: His Life in Comedy, shares Candy's comedic rise alongside Eugene Levy, Catherine O'Hara, Dan Aykroyd, and Joe Flaherty—and his iconic collaborations with John Hughes and Steve Martin. Paul also reveals how his brother, Mike Myers, met Candy as a teen—and how Candy encouraged him to start his comedy journey at Second City. Candy's influence didn't stop at comedy: he even partnered with hockey legend Wayne Gretzky to buy the Toronto Argonauts football team. Learn more about your ad choices.

Dan Loges delivers the latest entertainment news on:- The Office sequel, The Paper, was renewed for a second season.- Bluey film given a scheduled release date in 2027.- Documentary on John Candy praised by several mainstream performers.

Just as any good conversation goes in different directions, I wanted to add another element to my regular podcast. Today I wanted to share my memories of the great John Candy. As the new documentary makes its premiere at TIFF, I wanted to share this podcast I recorded as a tribute. From Johnny La Rue to Harry the guy with the snake on his face to Dr Tongue....he had some amazing characters. Born and raised right here in East York, where I also live, and I refer to him often when showing properties near where he grew up. I also had the chance to meet the great Juul Haalmeyer a few years back and try on the famous J LaRue smoking jacket. A great treat indeed.

Ben Grant and JB are here to get you through Toronto's second bye week of the 2025 season - one that couldn't have come at a better time. At the heart of this episode is the looming quarterback question: Nick Arbuckle is on a six-game tear, completing 74% of his passes for 2,137 yards, 14 touchdowns, and just two interceptions - a pace that would put him in Doug Flutie territory over a full season. But Chad Kelly has teased his return on Instagram for Toronto's next game. If he's healthy, is there a debate to be had about who gives Toronto the best chance to win? The guys dig into what's fueling Arbuckle's hot streak, Kelly's intangibles, and whether Coach Dinwiddie risks upsetting team chemistry with an abrupt switch. They also set the table for the final six games of the year, including a playoff path that runs through Saskatchewan and Calgary. Off the field, the Argos announced a special tribute: on September 13th vs. Edmonton, the team will honour John Candy, with the first 5,000 fans at BMO receiving a commemorative t-shirt. Ben and JB share memories of Candy's legacy as an owner and a Canadian icon. Plus, as always: Pick Six, Put Me Down for 20, and Challenge Flag.

Word is, Zoë Kravitz and Harry Styles are allegedly keeping things casual! But Nat, Drew, and Erin are raising suspicions.

The next VHS Strikes Back pick comes from Chris, and he's gone for the high-octane 1989 comedy Cannonball Run III: Speed Zone — also known in some regions as Cannonball Fever. Chris has a history of picking sometimes questionable movies, and this one certainly fits the bill. Directed by Jim Drake, who was best known for his work in television sitcoms, the film was the third entry in the loose Cannonball Run franchise, following The Cannonball Run (1981) and Cannonball Run II (1984). Despite its connection to the series, Speed Zone leaned heavily into slapstick comedy, celebrity cameos, and outrageous stunt work, attempting to capture the same chaotic energy that made the earlier films cult favorites.The production brought together a star-studded cast, including John Candy, Eugene Levy, Donna Dixon, and Brooke Shields, with many familiar comedic faces from the era lending their talents. Shot in both Canada and the United States, the movie doubled down on big stunt sequences and over-the-top gags, but it struggled critically and commercially upon release. However, in the decades since, Speed Zone has developed a reputation among fans of offbeat ‘80s comedies as a guilty pleasure, bolstered by its eccentric mix of stars and its place in the larger, gloriously messy Cannonball Run legacy.If you enjoy the show, we have a Patreon, so become a supporter ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:⁠⁠NordVPN⁠⁠⁠⁠NordPass⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryBuckle up… because the road is about to get ridiculous. When a cross-country race brings together the most outrageous drivers ever put behind the wheel, chaos takes the fast lane. With comedy legends like John Candy and Eugene Levy trading punches with traffic laws, and stunt drivers risking it all for the biggest gags on four wheels… this isn't about winning — it's about surviving the ride. Speed Zone… where the gas pedal meets pure madness.Fun FactsJohn Candy joined the cast after turning down several roles in the late ‘80s.The movie features a star-studded cast, including Brooke Shields, Eugene Levy, Donna Dixon, and Tim Matheson.Despite being packed with comedic talent, the movie bombed at the box office, making less than $1 million in the U.S.Brooke Shields won a Golden Raspberry Award (Razzie) for Worst Supporting Actress for her role in Speed Zone.Director Jim Drake had previously directed Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol.The movie's stunt work involved real high-speed chases, with stunt drivers performing dangerous maneuvers instead of relying on camera tricks.The working title during production was Cannonball Run III, but rights issues prevented the official branding.John Candy and Eugene Levy would later reunite in other comedy projects, solidifying their reputations as Canadian comedy legends.The film has since developed a cult following among fans of bad movies, often celebrated for its over-the-top humor and chaotic energy.The film was released internationally under different titles, including Cannonball Run III in some regions, which confused audiences but helped it connect to the more successful franchise.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

“The Blues Brothers” 1980 is packed with music and lots of law enforcement car chases. Then add in “Joliet” Jake and Elwood on “a mission from God” to save the orphanage, plus attacks on Jake's life by a mysterious woman left waiting at the altar, pursuit by the angry country western band, and attacks by a neo-Nazi party. What did I forget? Director John Landis herds these events into a crazy-quilt of music and mayhem.John Belushi is Jake Blues and Dan Aykroyd is blood brother Elwood. The large cast includes Cab Calloway, James Brown, Aretha Franklin, John Candy, Ray Charles, Twiggy, Steve Lawrence, Frank Oz, Henry Gibson, Steven Spielberg in the Assessor's office, Ralph Foody as Police Dispatcher, and a long list of other talented folks.

Legendary comedic actor John Candy left us on March 4th, 1994 at the age of 43, much to the dismay of his millions of fans. To help celebrate his life and career, we have a returning guest-host and John Candy super-fan, Retroid and co-host of the Spooky Picture Show, Raina Madison ! We each picked 2 of our favorite Candy films to spotlight, but knowing us, it's a safe bet we'll mention way more than that. Though John was probably far too humble to have ever believed it, his enormous absence is still felt these 30 years later. Fortunately, he left us a library of fun to remember him by! johncandy #planestrainsandautomobiles #UncleBuck #SCTV #whoisharrycrumb #spaceballs #johncandymovies #homealone ----------------------------------------Retro Ridoctopus is:• Parasite Steve (read)• 8-Bit Alchemy (listen) • Coopster Gold (join) • Nintenjoe (subscribe)----------------------------------------All original heavy metal music by Enchanted Exile

Rich weighs in on the latest in the Cowboys/Micah Parsons drama where Jerry Jones turned up the heat with his latest inflammatory comments on the contract standoff with his star linebacker. Actor Colin Hanks joins Rich in-studio to discuss his new ‘Nobody 2' movie starring Bob Odenkirk, the recent struggles of his beloved San Francisco Giants, his upcoming John Candy documentary, and offers up a tongue-in-cheek take on what it would be like to have NFL head coaches Dan Campell, Sean McVay, Mike Vrabel and others for a stepdad.

Join us as we look back at the 1986 comedy classic Armed and Dangerous, starring John Candy and Eugene Levy.https://www.spreaker.com/episode/armed-and-dangerous--67309081

As promised like three episodes ago, horse enthusiast and dog groomer extraordinaire Sage Porter joins us to talk HORSE MOVIES in our ANIMAL HUSBANDRY episode. First we go very unstoney with Elizabeth Taylor in NATIONAL VELVET (1944), the ultimate girl and her horse movie, which is a genre unto itself according to Sage, and we're not going to doubt him? Sage, Philena, Bob and Cory ask the probing questions here, like what's up with the kid with the bug necklace? Also, be sure you listen to the dramatic recreation of young Liz Taylor's audition for the role that made her a star. Then we go to the 80s for HOT TO TROT (1988) because YOU, THE PEOPLE DEMANDED IT! Or at least friend-of-the-show Audra Wolfman and absentee cohost Greg Franklin demanded it, which is like a deluge of public opinion for this podcast. Bobcat Goldthwait plays an inept stockbroker who gets investment advice from a horse voiced by John Candy, in what may be their worst movie. Cory stands by this one tho while Bob and Philena are in rare agreement. Dabney Coleman and Virginia Madsen are also risked their careers tho it didn't seem to hurt them. We also talk about the AI fuckery of THE WIZARD OF OZ at The Sphere in Vegas, and the opportunity to mix horseback riding and classic film screenings at the Lone Pine Film Fest + Cory and Bob weigh in on the new NAKED GUN movie. If you need dog grooming, make sure you ask for SAGE PORTER at the Petsmart in Van Nuys. We'll have him back for a dog episode soon. We are looking at finally giving Greg his Woke Trash episode to get him back on the show but we're still programming it. Subscribe so you don't miss it! Big thanks to Odie Henderson for sending me his Boston Globe oped on WIZARD OF OZ at The Sphere, even though I didn't have the chance to read from it. --Bob Hosts: Bob Calhoun, Philena Franklin, and Cory Sklar.

Today on another episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to Robert Crane, son of actor Bob Crane. Sadly, more has been spoken about the unsolved murder and the details surrounding the life of Bob Crane, the star of the hit 1960s television show Hogan's Heroes than about his actual career. Be it autobiographical movies like Auto Focus starring Greg Kinnear or books like My Unhollywood Family and Crane: Sex, Celebrity and My Father's Unsolved Murder both written by his son,  our guest, the mystery surrounding Bob Crane's death somehow has eclipsed all else. Today, we spoke to Robert about not only the devastation of losing his father in Scottsdale, Arizona in 1978 but also spending time with at KNX radio where his dad's massively popular radio show in the 1960s made him one of the most popular DJs in the country.  We discuss what Bob was like as a father  (both the good and the bad), the fractured family dynamic of Bob's first marriage and the fractured relationship with Bob's second family. We also change gears and discuss Robert's connection to SCTV via a book with Dave Thomas and his professional relationship as John Candy's publicist and assistant for more than half a decade. So yes, on this upcoming episode, we dig into the hard stuff as well as the personal stuff which made Bob Crane a fun loving dad as well as the tough stuff which never quite leaves you, even close to 50 years later. This is the Rarified Heir Podcast and this is one interview, you wont forget. Take a listen.  

In connection with Frank's “Fun for All Ages” tribute to Joe Flaherty, GGACP revisits this 2018 interview with another "SCTV" icon, actress and comedian Andrea Martin. In this episode, Andrea talks about the long-lost era of variety television, the strange world of Internet celebrity, the proposed “SCTV” reunion and the origin of classic characters Edith Prickley and Perini Scleroso. Also, Merv Griffin signs off, Bob Dylan overstays his welcome, Lee Grant crushes on Gilbert and Andrea remembers her friends John Candy and Harold Ramis. PLUS: Señor Wences! “Cannibal Girls”! Dueling Floyd the Barbers! The return of Rick Moranis! And Andrea tells the only joke she knows! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In the late '80s, John Candy's hit a rough patch with a string of underwhelming films—Hot to Trot, Speed Zone, and Who's Harry Crumb. But a creative reunion with John Hughes soon put him back on track, leading to some of the most memorable roles of his career. In this episode, we chart Candy's quiet resurgence and surprising pivot into sports ownership, as he becomes a co-owner of the Toronto Argonauts and proves there's always more than one way to steal the show.John Candy: The Lou Gehrig of Comedy is a series that honours the timeless humour and heartfelt performances of John Candy, star of hits like Splash, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, and Home Alone.Follow us on our socials: Instagram, Bluesky, LinkedIn, YouTube & SubstackWritten & Hosted by Ryan BarnettProduced by Ryan Barnett & Sonia GemmitiRecorded by Tyler RaumanAdditional voices by Matthew Barnett & Sean QuinlanA Knockabout Media ProductionAdditional audio material:Later with Bob Costas, Late Night with David Letterman, Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, Columbia Pictures, CBC.

Frank is joined by Emmy-winning writer-producer Dick Blasucci ("Mad TV," "The Larry Sanders Show") and Emmy-winning writer-director Paul Flaherty ("Clifford," "Who's Harry Crumb?") for a loving tribute to the life and career of the late "SCTV" stalwart Joe Flaherty. In this episode, Dick and Paul discuss Joe's passion for classic cinema, his rise from Second City stage manager to performer, his repertoire of celebrity impressions and the (rumored) origins of Count Floyd, Vic Hedges and Guy Caballero. Also, Dick remembers Rip Torn, Paul tangles with Burt Reynolds, John Candy dines with Larry Fine's cousin and George Burns tries (unsuccessfully) to butter a bagel. PLUS: Brother Theodore! "Maudlin's Eleven"! "Morton & Hayes"! Paul jams with Ray Charles! And Joe pays his respects to the legendary Roberto Clemente!

SEASON 3 EPISODE 139: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: So we're going to do that whole Iraq crap again. Only swapping out the last letter. "Iran" instead of "Iraq." Because nobody remembers Bush and people think Trump is somehow anti-war, when he's doing all this because of his desperate FOMO that there is something somewhere on Fox News that he is not being given personal credit for. Only he's skipping the whole phony terrorism-9/11-pancake uranium-manufactured evidence dance and just saying "we're doing it to save Israel" even though the evangelicals who WANT to "save" Israel like Mike Huckabee really want just to make sure nobody but them destroys Israel, since the end of their prophecy is that when there are no Jews anywhere but Israel, there'll be a rapture, and all the Jews will convert or, you know, bye-bye. It's complete delusional snake-handling level religion. And as for the US military, the purpose of war with Iran would be the same as was the purpose of war with Iraq: to HAVE a war in which you can DESTROY B-2 Stealth Bombers and thus increase the Pentagon budget. As Big Jim McBob and Billy Sol Hurok would say: "Blowed 'em up good. Blowed 'em real good!" PLUS: Governor Hochul of New York uses the mot juste about what appears to have been a set-up of NYC Comptroller Brad Lander. ICE swings back towards seizing the people who keep the red states from starving. And those Trump American Phones are made in China. B-Block (32:50) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: CNN/MSNBC screw up the ratio of ICE protest coverage to No Kings protest coverage; Stephen Miller runs Trump but Katie Miller runs Stephen Miller; Karoline Leavitt inexplicably posts a photo of Trump wearing a dunce cap. C-Block (43:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: This week was the 25th anniversary of the day my mother became famous, and loved every moment of it, when she got hit in the face by a baseball thrown by the second baseman of the Yankees - while I was doing the highlights of that game on Fox's national game of the week telecast.
