Celluloid Heroes: Episode 18Film: Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)We all have that one perfect day. That day that we will spend the rest of our lives remembering and talking about. In 1986 John Hughes gave us his version of that perfect day with a group of teens from the North Shore of Chicago Illinois; a story that has a much more melancholy undercurrent than most likely realize and for host Brad, marked the end of a very difficult year. This is the story of Ferris Bueller's Day Off.Follow Celluloid Heroes on INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/TheCelluloidHeroesPodFollow Brad Abraham at www.bradabraham.comShare your thoughts with us!

An engineer is laid off and becomes a stay-at-home dad, and hijinks--and gender--ensue. Not quite as off-putting as it could have been thanks to some very funny performances from Michael Keaton and Teri Garr, but it's still a hackneyed, reactionary premise. Starring Michael Keaton, Teri Garr, Martin Mull, Ann Jillian. Written by John Hughes. Directed by Stan Dragoti.

In this episode of Black and Snerdy, Ode (@thatsod.e / @thatsod_e) and Mo "Kid" Licorish (@licorishislegit) speak with writer-director Gregory Pellerito about his movie Moments of Youth, a single-night coming-of-age film built around a scavenger-hunt structure and a major traumatic event that is explored two years later. Gregory describes the decision to keep the traumatic moment implicit while showing its long-term effects, details the emotional read-through that left the cast silent and crying, and explains editorial choices such as shooting the key scene in black-and-white and bringing color back when a character sings. The conversation connects the film's tone to classic influences—John Hughes, Ferris Bueller, Breakfast Club—while positioning the movie between American Pie-style hijinks and deeper drama. The guest also discusses Perks of Being a Wallflower as a touchstone and distribution plans including a theatrical start and availability on Tubi, Amazon, and Plex.

Chosen by Justin, Only the Lonely arrived in 1991 as a gentler, more bittersweet John Candy vehicle than the broad comedy many audiences might have expected. Written and directed by Chris Columbus and produced by John Hughes and Hunt Lowry, the film brought together Candy, Maureen O'Hara, Ally Sheedy, Anthony Quinn, James Belushi and Kevin Dunn for a Chicago-set romantic comedy-drama with a softer heart than its VHS-era packaging probably suggested. A widely reported production budget is not readily available, but the film earned around $21.8 million domestically after opening wide through 20th Century Fox in May 1991.The production leaned heavily into real Chicago texture, with principal photography beginning on 1 October 1990 and running until 22 December 1990. Locations included North Avenue Beach, the Pump Room, St. John Cantius Church, Greektown and Comiskey Park, with additional interiors built at Chicago Metropolitan Studios. Reception was mixed-to-positive in the period, with particular praise for the performances, and the film has since picked up a modest legacy as one of John Candy's more tender, underrated leading roles: less “falling through furniture,” more “quietly breaking your heart while still making you laugh.”Trailer Guy SynopsisIn a city of crowded bars, roaring trains and overbearing family dinners, one Chicago cop is about to face the most terrifying case of his career: falling in love.Danny Muldoon is loyal, dependable, kind-hearted… and still very much under the command of his mother. But when he meets Theresa, a shy funeral home worker with a quiet charm, Danny sees the possibility of a life beyond guilt, duty and being emotionally handcuffed to the family sofa.Fun FactsOnly the Lonely was Maureen O'Hara's first feature film appearance in roughly two decades, bringing a classic Hollywood presence into a very early-90s comedy-drama.Chris Columbus reportedly wrote the role of Rose with Maureen O'Hara in mind, which is ambitious casting energy of the highest order.The film's title comes from Roy Orbison's famous song “Only the Lonely,” giving the movie an instant dose of old-school melancholy before anyone even says a word.John Candy plays a romantic lead here, which makes the film stand apart from many of his broader comic roles of the 1980s and early 1990s.The cast includes both Macaulay Culkin and Kieran Culkin in small roles, because apparently the early 90s had a legal requirement that at least one Culkin appear somewhere near a John Hughes production.Maurice Jarre, the Oscar-winning composer behind classics such as Lawrence of Arabia and Doctor Zhivago, provided the score.The film was shot in the same general Chicago orbit as several John Hughes-associated productions, helping give it that familiar neighbourhood feel rather than a glossy studio rom-com sheen.Anthony Quinn appears as Nick, the persistent neighbour with eyes for Rose, adding some old-school screen charisma to the film's family chaos.The story has often been compared to Marty, the 1955 romantic drama about a lonely bachelor trying to find love while dealing with family pressure.Support the ShowIf you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠.If you're listening on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, leaving us a 5-star review (and a short comment) really helps more people discover the show.

John Candy and Steve Martin star as two guys with very different personalities who have to make it from NYC to Chicago during Thanksgiving. Literally, millions make this trip all the time with nothing weird happening. But this is a John Hughes comedy so all sorts of craziness ensues.

Megan Gaul is a weight loss coach from Staten Island. Her mission is to support women age 30 and up, 200 lbs. and up, achieve their weight-loss goals without shrinking their lives. She came to this mission through her own 100-lb weight loss in 2018, where she discovered food freedom, healthier emotional boundaries, self-trust, and a richer life. She's now in her 5th year of business, and she and her clients focus on small habit-change, self-compassion, and authenticity. Megan Gaul Vroom Vroom Veer Show Summary Intro and welcome — Jeff introduces Megan and they ease into the conversation with some Staten Island background and shared pop culture references (John Hughes, Molly Ringwald). Megan's new Slack community — a supportive space for women working on weight loss who aren't ready for one-on-one coaching. Members post daily food plans, check in at night, swap meal-prep ideas, and join a weekly group coaching class. Megan shares why she loves using Slack for something this personal. Growing up in Staten Island — feeling like an outsider among Italian families, being a band/nerd kid rather than a club kid, and how her home food environment (three square meals, limited snacking) quietly shaped her relationship with food for years to come. The "freshman forty-five" — unlimited cafeteria access, vending machines, and a photo she almost didn't recognize. Megan shares how that moment pushed her to start tracking calories, eventually losing about 40 lbs (185 → 145) — but without a maintenance plan. The scarcity mindset and night overeating — when you grow up feeling like food access is controlled, freely available food becomes hard to resist. Megan traces this pattern through college, working life, and reaching 235 lbs by age 28. The wake-up moment — post-eating guilt, feeling out of control, and recognizing that food had become a numbing mechanism. Megan talks honestly about the parallels with addictive behavior, without labeling it as addiction. You don't have to give up Cheetos — Megan's coaching philosophy centers on portioning, structure, and meal planning rather than banning favorite foods. Peanut butter, Reese's, and all. Jeff shares his own parallel experience with military weigh-ins, strict low-calorie phases, and eventually finding green smoothies. Small habits that actually stick — Jeff's practical toolkit: "optic flow" walks, the 100-steps minimum, 10 minutes of morning sunlight for circadian rhythm, brief morning meditation to lower cortisol, and ramping into the day rather than diving into email. Megan affirms why consistency beats all-or-nothing every time. Life opens up before you hit goal weight — more stamina, saying yes to hiking and standing events, not shrinking your world to avoid discomfort. Megan shares her Sunday bean salad ritual and how weekly meal prep keeps stress from driving impulsive eating choices. Wrap-up, laughs, and a John Candy documentary recommendation. Megan shares how to find her and what she offers. Connections Partake Meal Planning

Interview by Kris PetersGargoyle of the Garden State, the highly anticipated debut solo album from Skid Row co-founder and bassist Rachel Bolan, releases on 12 June 2026 via earMUSIC. Stepping into the spotlight under the moniker BOLAN, this record marks a monumental milestone in the musician's four-decade career. Driven by a desire to craft something entirely his own, Bolan handles the vast majority of the recording duties himself, taking over lead vocals, bass, and most of the guitar tracks.Rooted deeply in the grit, attitude, and storytelling traditions of his New Jersey upbringing, the album is a high-octane sonic journey. Musically, it breaks away from standard hair metal conventions, leaning instead into a raw, hook-driven fusion of punk rock energy and melodic sensibilities. Bolan weaves a lifetime of diverse influences into the tracklist, drawing inspiration from Britpop, glam, new wave, and 1980s John Hughes cinema, even incorporating a sitar on the distinctly pop-punk track Memory.Though it is a solo venture, Bolan shares the experience with an impressive, star-studded lineup of close friends and peers. Listeners can expect guest appearances from legendary artists like Corey Taylor (Slipknot), Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme), Steve Conte, and Damon Johnson. Furthermore, Bolan's Skid Row family - including Scotti Hill, Dave "Snake" Sabo, and drummer Rob Hammersmith - lend their talents to various tracks. Ultimately, Gargoyle of the Garden State serves as an uncompromising, honest reflection of Bolan's true musical identity, balancing serious, reflective songwriting with an undeniable, upbeat rock-and-roll party atmosphere.HEAVY sat down with Bolan to find out more, asking him to describe what he was going for musically with the album."I was just going for a raw feel," he explained. "This record sums up me and what's going on in my head, you know, and it was fun to play guitar. I played all the rhythms and the bass, did most of the singing and then had a whole bunch of friends come in and contribute, which meant the world to me."We ask why now, after more than 40 years in music, is the right time to make a solo album."You know, I didn't find the time. The time kind of found me," he smiled. "We had downtime with Skid Row while we were searching for a vocalist and I had a bunch of songs. I kept writing through the whole process and it was more it's not now or never, but now would be a good time (laughs)."In the full interview, Rachel speaks more about Gargoyle of the Garden State and the songs on it, reflecting on the two singles released to date and if they are a good sonic representation of the album as a whole. We talked about lead track Anything But You and why it was chosen as first introduction to his solo work, plus the influence New Jersey and its way of life had on the album.We talked more about the guest artists and why they were chosen, having his Skid Row bandmates on there and why, the title and where it comes from, playing these songs live and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana welcome Patti and Paul to the show as they discuss the 1986 comedy Pretty in Pink.  We jump back into the Hughesiverse in this obvious world of make believe where two (TWO!?!) people are actually attracted to Molly Ringworm and viaing for her affection.  This is pretty much marks the end of the unexplainable attraction the movie public had with Molly and the world is a better place for that.  Did she have something on John Hughes or did he have something for her?  The world may never know, but there has to be a reason.  Enjoy the podcast!Jason, Andy and Dana will discuss a 1986 movie weekly, breaking down all the nonsense there within. The 3 hosts all work together and everyone else around them was getting really annoyed at all the movie talk, so they decided to annoy the world in podcast form.Check out previous seasons to hear them discuss 1982, 1983, 1984 & 1985 movies, as well as a full season of Love Boat episodes (if that is your thing).

In this episode of our 2026 series about iconic movies from the 1980s we are taking a close look at the 1986 Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about the film's sprawling legacy and seemingly ironclad fan appeal, how many critics of the time saw it as a feelgood hangout and how it added to John Hughes's catalogue of coming-of-age filmmaking. We also tear down the film's edifice and dismantle its wish fulfilment fantasy to find much more troubling interpretations, ask why Ferris remains perfect throughout the movie and how his behaviour on multiple occasions is a massive personality red flag.

It's finally time to kickoff our new miniseries: school's out, and the pod is going on SUMMER VACATION, in anticipation of Chris Nolan's adaptation of the original summer vacation this July. We watched the ur-text for all vacation movies, National Lampoon's Vacation (1983), a shaggydog odyssey into the heart of capitalism from Harold Ramis, John Hughes, and, of course, Chevy Chase. We came for the swimming pools and the roadside eats, but we stayed for the potent exploration of the boomer ideology: American is one big con job, and everyone's a mark, except for you (....right?).

Mixtape is a new game from Beethoven & Dinosaur, the studio behind 2021's whimsical musical adventure The Artful Escape. It's Life Is Strange (absent the supernatural) by way of John Hughes. Patrick recently had an opportunity to chat with Mixtape's lovingly eccentric creative director, Johnny Galvatron, and its producer, Woody Woodward, about what it means to make a video game about love, booze, and teenage friendship.

Imagine a dystopian America where authority is malignant, the profit motive rules all, everyone is on the grift, all goods and services have been devalued to the least of their utility and value, and the infrastructure has crumbled into a depressing echo of its former self… this morning's New York Times? No! It's Alex Cox's punk rock masterpiece Repo Man! Made in that special time before John Hughes and the Brat Pack got their hooks in him, Emilio Estevez embodies youth in revolt as he teams up with Harry Dean Stanton at his scuzziest, most viciously nicotine-stained best to get into some tense situations. Step into the 1980s Ronnie Reagan did NOT want you to know about: where aliens are real, televangelists occasionally moonlight as government agents, television holds a hypnotic sway over your parents, and, most importantly, the threat of the Rodriguez Brothers looms around every corner! Politically biting, socially trenchant, and as fucking hilarious as a can of generic beer and poke to the eye with a lit cigarette, Repo Man may just be the angriest and most prophetic mainstream film of its time - and even more surprisingly, it's one of Paul's formative favorites!

Matthew McQueeny sits down with Jordan Kanter for a conversation about Chicago, sports, technology, data, AI, and what it means to stay human in a rapidly changing digital world. Jordan shares stories from growing up in the Chicago area during the Michael Jordan Bulls era, visiting iconic John Hughes movie locations, and discovering technology through VCRs, early Apple computers, Netscape, Linux, and open-source culture. From there, the conversation moves into his path from pre-med and psychology into data, analytics, consulting, and digital experience work. The episode explores how Jordan's background as a childhood cancer survivor shaped his perspective, empathy, and sense of resilience. Matthew and Jordan also discuss how DXP, CMS, data, and martech professionals may be uniquely positioned for the AI era because they have spent years working close to real human problems, not just technology for technology's sake. The conversation closes with Jordan's thoughts on AI as both a powerful tool and a disruptive force, his work with Traya Performance Academy, and how he is thinking about enterprise AI, local models, human-centered technology, and the next generation of AI-native kids.

Hey Streetwalkers. This is a throwback episode with actor John Kapelos, the janitor from The Breakfast Club! John first appeared on the show on 6.24.24It was such a compelling & fun episode, l decided it needed to be re-visited!Enjoy this throwback episode, tell a friend, and thanks for listening!John KapelosTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know John Kapelos. You may know John as 'Carl, The Janitor' from the 1984 cult classic film: The Breakfast Club; but he is so much more than that! In this episode, we chat about him spending nearly a decade with Second City, his experiences on some of the greatest John Hughes films, and even his time as 'The Sniffing Accountant' on Seinfeld. We discuss how the show must go on, even after his father unexpectedly passed. John reveals the moment he found out that Emelio Estevez was the son of Martin Sheen, stories from the set of The Breakfast Club, and his scene from Ferris Bueller's Day Off that got cut. As if all of this improv comedy and hall of fame acting isn't enough, John Kapelos also put out an album! It is called "John Kapelos: Too Hip For the Room"; and he lets me play a track from it. I think you're gonna dig it!John is a consummate professional, and he gets honest and vulnerable with me in this interview. I appreciate him for letting go, and not holding back. If you have a chance to see John in a play, or singing, or in television and film; I highly suggest you check him out. In everything he does, he BRINGS IT!

Anne Hathaway & Molly Ringwold pandering to the mob about there should be plus size models in Devil Wears Prada 2 & the John Hughes films were too white.. no one believes that..Donald Trump , Spencer Pratt & Steve Hilton outsiders from tv.. Democrats say they are just tv people.. funny because all Democrats want to do is be on tv..

In this episode, Caleb and Iain Duguid (PhD, Cambridge) Professor of Old Testament at Westminister Theological Seminary explore the spectrum of prophecy in the Bible, its continuation or cessation today, and how Old Testament insights inform our understanding of New Testament prophecy.

This week we watched and discussed John Hughes's teen-angst masterpiece “The Breakfast Club”. One of the first films to let teenagers portray themselves with their own voice, address stereotypes, peer pressure, adult expectations, and the reality that we're not very different, regardless of who we are.Today's root beer is Dr. Brown's.Intro and Outro music by Stockmusic331 on Pond5Send us Fan Mail

Say Anything is a classic romance movie with the famous boombox scene. But we never knew anything else about the movie. We thought it could end up being another one of those poorly aged John Hughes movies, but Cameron Crowe actually pulled off something significantly less problematic. In fact there's a massive subplot about the protagonist's dad ripping off old people? How many kisses does it deserve tho?Don't forget to join our Discord for movie nights and additional podcast discussions!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-other-half/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Chris Shipley and Dave Larson are joined by Steve Spears, the award-winning host of the long-running Stuck in the 80's podcast (now over 780 episodes and 20 years strong). Steve dives deep into his lifelong love of 80's pop culture, from his first Journey concert in 1981 and his obsession with Valley Girl (which he's watched hundreds of times) to Live Aid, the Challenger disaster, and why 80's music and movies created a common language we still speak today.He also talks about his new book Stuck in the 80's, memorable (and sometimes awkward) interviews with icons like Huey Lewis, Steve Perry, Debbie Foreman, and Olivia Newton-John, the magic of the 80's Cruise, and how technology has changed the way we experience nostalgia.If you grew up with MTV, Blockbuster nights, mixtapes, and John Hughes movies, this episode is pure 80's comfort food.Sponsored by Revelton Distilling Company, US-FEX Shipping AI, Iowa Beef Steakhouse, Styled by JJ Boutique, Jenny Farrell REMAX Concepts, Kyle Lehman at Wintrust Mortgage and We Will Pizza, LIVE from the AKC Andrew Downs Studios.

Two teenage dweebs create a beautiful woman with their computer, a la the Bride of Frankenstein. This screwy sci-fi departure for John Hughes tells teenagers it's okay to be yourself and it's even better to possess a magic-wielding Kelly LeBrock.

Recently on the pod, I reunited with the gifted arts journalist Candice Frederick, one of my oldest friends from the early days of Film Twitter. Candice was one of the first guests I ever had on Watch With Jen, and we had a ball logging on to discuss some of the best and most under-discussed coming-of-age movies of the past 40+ years, including those we first saw as adults in our early 40s. While initially we were going to focus on RUNNING ON EMPTY, PARIAH, and JUNO, we wound up having a breezy, sunny, nostalgic, and introspective chat about a wide range of movies and cultural figures that defined our generation, including River Phoenix and John Hughes. It's ideal for Spring!Bio: Candice Frederick is a talented culture journalist for hire. She was formerly the Senior Culture Reporter at HuffPost.

"Lived Through That” is the companion podcast to my book where I look at influential musicians of the 80s and 90s and where they are today. On this podcast, we'll delve deeper into a single pivotal moment in the lives of some of the artists I feature in that book, as well as other artists I love and admire. The stories they tell are open, honest, and inspiring. This week, we've got Belouis Some on the show. He was one of the more distinctive voices to emerge from the British new wave scene of the 1980s and had worldwide hits with "Some People," "Imagination," and "Round, Round,” the last of which found an entirely new audience when it landed on the soundtrack of John Hughes' Pretty in Pink.  Along the way he worked with some remarkable collaborators — including Bernard Edwards and Tony Thompson from Chic  and guitarist Carlos Alomar, the man who had helped shape David Bowie's mid-70s sound. After more than thirty years away from the headline stage, he returned to London's O2 Academy Islington in November 2024 for a sold-out show, followed by a US tour in 2025. Today, he tells us about how a change of scenery from London to New York City helped craft his breakthrough song, Imagination, and his post-music career in nightclubs and adult film business.
