In this episode, Rob, Dave and Kurt dive headfirst into the peak-80s absurdity of Back to School, exploring how Rodney Dangerfield seamlessly translated his legendary stand-up persona into one of the biggest box office hits of 1986. They break down the film's iconic comedic set pieces, Sam Kinison's unhinged screen time as an intense history professor, and the surprising heart buried beneath the non-stop one-liners. They also take a look at the impressive supporting cast—including a young Robert Downey Jr. in all his quirky, eccentric glory—and discuss how the movie fits into the golden era of 1980s university comedies. Beyond the gags, the trio debates how well the film's humor translates to modern audiences and whether a billionaire buying his way into college life lands differently today. From the legendary "Triple Lindy" dive to Oingo Boingo's unforgettable soundtrack contributions, the guys leave no stone unturned. Stick around to hear their final ratings, favorite scenes, and where Back to School ranks in Rodney's classic filmography.

Johnny Mac spotlights comedian Robert Schimmel as part of Saturday deep dives on comics who peaked before YouTube and podcasts. He describes Schimmel's brutally confessional style—turning tragedies like his 11-year-old son's leukemia death and his own stage-three non-Hodgkin's lymphoma into jokes—and recounts Schimmel's improbable life, including marrying and divorcing the same woman three times, later marrying his daughter's best friend during chemotherapy, and dying at 60 from a 2010 Scottsdale car accident while awaiting a liver transplant. Mac traces Schimmel's career: Bronx upbringing, Rodney Dangerfield's 1986 HBO Young Comedian's Special boost, Showtime specials, writing for In Living Color, frequent Howard Stern appearances, and a Fox sitcom pilot “Schimmel” canceled after his cancer diagnosis. Mac shares a SiriusXM story about Schimmel swapping stories on-air with David Brenner and cites Schimmel's specials, memoir, Fresh Air interview, and Comedy Central Top 100 recognition.00:00 Deep Dive Setup00:53 Tragedy Into Comedy03:05 Early Life Breakthrough03:50 Dangerfield Special Clip04:35 Career Highlights05:16 Sitcom Then Cancer06:57 Stern And Sirius Years07:38 Raw Dog Lobby Story10:45 Legacy And Conan Clip12:44 Old Episode Stories19:01 Cancer And Faith Bits21:10 Carlin And Jackie Mason Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac--4522158/support.Today's DCN is brought to you by MyBookie use promo code DCN!Daily Comedy News is hosted by Johnny Mac and releases every weekday.

Today on Too Opinionated, we're joined by legendary Canadian comedian, broadcaster, television host, and performer Lisa-Gay Tremblay to celebrate the release of her hilarious new comedy album, Unretired. Released on Canada Day, Unretired finds Lisa-Gay at her funniest, most fearless, and most authentic as she reflects on life, aging, politics, reinvention, and why starting over at 67 years old can be the greatest punchline of all. A true trailblazer in Canadian comedy, Lisa-Gay made history as the first Canadian woman to perform at the Just For Laughs Festival, helping open doors for generations of female comedians. Throughout her remarkable career, she's shared the stage with comedy legends including Jerry Seinfeld, Dave Chappelle, Jim Carrey, Rodney Dangerfield, Dana Carvey, and entertainment icons k.d. lang, Dionne Warwick, and Mel Tormé. Lisa-Gay also hosted CBC's live Canada Day celebration from Parliament Hill in both English and French, becoming a familiar face to audiences across the country. After decades performing in New York and Los Angeles—and even serving two elected terms in municipal politics—she's returned to Canada with a fresh perspective and some of the strongest material of her career. In this episode we discuss:
This episode of the Dan Caplis Show is a wild ride, full of humor, politics, and thought-provoking discussions. The host dives into the Denver Post's list of the 150 most influential Coloradans, exposing its glaring biases and omissions. From the absence of notable figures like Bill Owens and Julia Greeley to the inclusion of Dottie Lamb, a Democrat first lady, the host isn't afraid to speak his mind. The conversation covers a range of topics, including the importance of being prepared for potential cyber attacks, the recent news about Hickenlooper's video on affordability, and the fascinating story of Jon Stewart's courageous take on Dr. Fauci's claims. The host also shares a hilarious anecdote about his encounter with Rodney Dangerfield and discusses the significance of the Denver Post's list in the context of Colorado's history. Throughout the episode, the host engages with listeners, taking calls and responding to texts, and even gets into a humorous exchange with a caller who claims to have been a crack cocaine dealer. The conversation also touches on the Democratic Party's shift towards socialism and its potential impact on the 2024 election.

The Not Ready for Prime Time Podcast: The Early Years of SNL
The summer of 1980 delivered some of the most memorable comedies in American film history. One of the most iconic is Caddyshack. Born from the mind of The National Lampoon (hot off the success of Animal House) the movie stars two SNL alumni - Chevy Chase and Bill Murray - as well as comedic giants Rodney Dangerfield and Ted Knight.In honor of the film's 46th anniversary of the film's release this week, we look back on the making of a comedy classic. We discuss the film's origins—the brainchild of legends Doug Kenney, Harold Ramis, and Brian Doyle-Murray—as well as the film's development, casting, and the non-stop party that was the film's shoot.To help with all of this is one of the film's co-stars, Michael O'Keefe, who played caddie Danny Noonan in the film. Michael shares stories from the set, what it was like working with the four comedy legends on the project, and the evolution of the script from an Animal House-esque story about high schoolers working on a golf course to what it ultimately became.All of that, plus a firsthand account of seeing Lemmings on stage in NYC in the mid-70s, his relationship with the late, great Doug Kenney, and what it is like to be a part of such a monumental pop culture phenomenon—one that is embraced and loved to this day."Hey everybody...."---------------------------------Subscribe & Follow today!And follow us on social media: Twitter: @NR4PTProject Instagram: @nr4ptprojectBluesky: @nr4ptproject.bsky.socialFacebook: The Not Ready for Prime Time ProjectContact Us: Website: https://www.nr4project.comEmail: nr4ptproject@gmail.com
Lindsay Whaley, professor of Classics and Linguistics at Dartmouth College and a founding member of Christ Redeemer Church, was our guest preacher on July 26, 2026. Lindsay's message focuses the third epistle written by the apostle John. 3 John, the shortest book in all of Scripture (in the original Greek) packs an essential and timeless Gospel message into its 15 verses. You'll want to watch this sermon, especially if you're wondering what Rodney Dangerfield has to do with 3 John (or vice versa)!
In 1973 Alan Bursky burst on the comedy scene in a big was when he was just 17 and being the youngest comedian to ever perform on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show. He was also involved in booking entertainment in the early days of the Magic Island. But long before that when he was growing up in New York, he developed a friendship with David Kotke aka David Copperfield. Later while on the comedy circuit, he befriended Freddie Prinze who starred in “Chico and the Man” television series. He was a roommate with Freddie for a while. He also booked Steve Martin and Rodney Dangerfield, among many other notable comedians. Now he is preparing for going back out to sea doing comedy on cruise ships.

This time we're starting with the Bottom of 2015 in our “Tops and Bottoms” series (dammit, why does Mike keep giggling at that title?) and the biggest money loser of 2015 was “Jem and the Holograms,” a live action movie based on an 80's cartoon about a girl-group popstar band. Now, regardless of what we have to say about this movie, I have to point out that this film was clearly doomed from the start. What was John Chu thinking when he signed on to direct? If you're going to adapt a cartoon about a musical group, how could you choose anything other than that under-appreciated classic “Jabberjaw”?! I mean, really, how can you top a talking shark who does an impression of Curly Howard while using Rodney Dangerfield's classic catchphrase “I don't get no respect!” Comedy gold! I'm thinking Ryan Reynolds for Biff, Margot Robie for Bubbles, Megan Fox as Shelley, Jared Leto as Clamhead, and Sir Ian McKellen as the voice of a CGI Jabberjaw. My god, it writes itself! Hanna-Barbera, you're sitting on an untapped gold mine! You could make the underwater world of the show a kind of dystopian, post-apocalyptic setting! Think “Waterworld” meets “Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space”! Have your people call my people! In the meantime, give a listen as we discuss what these poor saps actually chose for source material. So misguided . . . Poll question: can you think of a cartoon show from your past that would make a good live-action movie? Leave a comment or call our live-action hotline at 617-398-7266

Episode 786: From sci-fi parodies and comedy catchphrases to political satire and celebrity rap records, the '80s produced some truly unforgettable novelty hits. Steve and Chuck revisit songs that were silly, bizarre, occasionally controversial—and somehow impossible to forget. In this episode, they discuss: • "Star Trekkin'" by The Firm, the cult classic that became a No. 1 hit in the United Kingdom • "You Look Marvelous" by Billy Crystal, inspired by his legendary Saturday Night Live character Fernando • "Rappin' Rodney" by Rodney Dangerfield, one of the most unlikely rap records of the MTV era • "Bomb Iran" by Vince Vance & the Valiants, the political parody song inspired by the Iran hostage crisis Along the way, they explore the role of Dr. Demento, the rise of novelty records in the MTV era, memorable music videos, comedy albums, and why some of the weirdest songs of the decade continue to live rent-free in our heads decades later. Plus, Steve and Chuck share their memories of discovering these songs, discuss how novelty music fit into the larger pop culture landscape of the 1980s, and debate whether today's music world could ever produce anything quite like them again.

Governor Kathy Hochul has blamed the LIRR strike on President Trump, and Mark breaks down why. Should congestion pricing be suspended due to the LIRR strike? Hochul may also be using the strike to attack Republican candidate Bruce Blakeman, since he represents Long Island, an area where the strike is frustrating many voters. During President Trump's visit, burner phones had to be used by him and other top CEOs because of China's security systems. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has seized $500 million of Iran's cryptocurrency assets over the past few days. Mark interviews NY Post columnist Michael Goodwin. Mike, a former New York Times staffer, shares his opinion on why the newspaper has become so anti-Semitic. Some of the top lawyers in the US are vowing to help Israel with its lawsuit against the New York Times, especially since the Times has been accused of playing the race card more frequently. Mark and Michael believe that no one should be surprised, since Mamdani preached anti-Semitic views before he became mayor. President Trump has been threatening Iran all weekend, and Iran has responded by sending the US a new 14-point peace proposal. Mark explains why the UN climate committee was wrong about the latest “Green Scheme,” describing the climate alarmism as crazy. Researchers have admitted that the predicted climate change range for the 21st century may not occur, and that financial interests may have influenced the UN's stance. New York is now planning a tax on homes purchased with cash for over $1 million. Trump is considering investigating billionaire George Soros for allegedly funding corrupt organizations against him and others. Mark interviews comedian Jackie Martling. Mark and Jackie reminisce about Rodney Dangerfield, with Jackie sharing stories about his experience knowing Rodney and performing at his comedy club.

The Judge Jeanine Tunnel to Towers Foundation Sunday Morning Show
Join conservative commentator Joe Concha as he broadcasts poolside from West Palm Beach to wage war on "woke" culture and media hypocrisy. In this episode, Joe tears into the New York Times for giving a friendly platform to radical podcaster Hassan Piker, who shockingly defended the murder of a healthcare CEO and justified stealing groceries from Whole Foods. Concha also calls out The View's Joy Behar for complaining about climate change while utilizing gas-guzzling limos and SUVs, previews Donald Trump's highly anticipated and undeniably fiery return to the White House Correspondents' Dinner, and roasts TMZ for asking bizarrely inappropriate questions to the Secretary of War at the Pentagon. Plus, tune in to hear about a US soldier's $400,000 insider betting scandal, the economic return of "pregaming", and why classic Rodney Dangerfield is still light years funnier than Jimmy Kimmel.

Greg Olear speaks with the economic sociology professor Brooke Harrington, author of “Offshore: Stealth Wealth and the New Colonialism,” about journalistic omertà, bodily capital, tech-bro self-loathing, Trump's lousy Rodney Dangerfield impression, and how the first rule of Epstein Club is not to talk about Epstein Club. Brooke Harrington is Professor of Economic Sociology at Dartmouth College. Since 2007, she has examined inequality from the top end of the socio-economic spectrum—a research program inaugurated by her training for two years to become a certified offshore wealth manager. Her previous book—Capital without Borders —won the “Outstanding Book” award from the Inequality, Poverty and Mobility section of the American Sociological Association. She advises the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, EU Parliament, and the tax agencies of countries across Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific. Her latest book, Offshore: Stealth Wealth and the New Colonialism, was named a “Best Book” of 2024 by the Financial Times.

VP JD Vance is heading to Pakistan for talks with Iranian officials, though it remains unclear whether Iran will participate. Why did Melania Trump hold a surprise press conference yesterday, addressing the Jeffrey Epstein files and her connection to them? Mark thinks he has the answer. Kamala Harris is scheduled to speak today at Al Sharpton's convention at the Sheraton in New York City, with Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro also in attendance. Mark interviews John Carney, Business Editor at Breitbart News. The latest CPI numbers are in; some figures ticked up, but Carney argues it isn't as dire as it appears. Gas prices could fall further depending on the outcome of ongoing ceasefire talks. Japan relies heavily on oil transported through the Strait of Hormuz, and oil companies stand to gain significantly from rising prices. John also makes the case that the Trump tax cuts are poised to spark a major economic boom.
