Podcasts about ron west

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Catherine Butterfield, author of the book, The Serpent and the Rose. Catherine was born in Manhattan but raised primarily in Minnesota and Massachusetts. (The Three M's) She was a skinny kid with miserable allergies and spent most of her youth indoors reading books. Her two biggest influences at that point were J.D. Salinger and Anne Frank. As an actress, she spent her early career acting regionally and then started writing for the stage. Her first break as a playwright came with the Manhattan Theatre Club production of JOINED AT THE HEAD, which she wrote and starred in, leading to other productions of her plays in the city and the beginnings of her TV career. Though relocated to Los Angeles, she never stopped writing plays; so far ten of them have been produced and published. During the pandemic she and husband RON WEST created over 60 short films for a series entitled LIFE DURING LOCKDOWN, which can be seen under her name on Youtube.  Recently, she has written her first novel, "The Serpent and the Rose," about the French queen Marguerite de Valois and her lifelong battle with her mother, Catherine de Medici. She lives in Santa Monica with Ron West and their cat, Pandita. Her daughter is the actress Audrey Corsa. In my book review, I stated that Marguerite began life as a French princess, became the Queen of Navarre through marriage, and chose to remove herself from that marriage as her husband became King of France. We follow Marguerite's life through journal entries, allowing us to see her dysfunctional family and the craziness of court life from her point of view. I loved that this was written in first person and in present tense - an unusual POV for a historical fiction novel - because I became quite attached to Marguerite and her quick wit and dry sense of humor. I typically do not care for books written about this period of time because I get slogged down in the details of a history I can't keep straight and names that mean nothing to me. However, Butterfield did an amazing job keeping readers engaged with salient facts, a quick tempo, and dashes of humor. I loved this book and highly recommend it to anyone who loves historical fiction and a good laugh.

Dr. Jeanne Leep – Improv Nerd Meet the brilliant author and professor, Dr. Jeanne Leep. Jeanne played improv in Grand Rapids, Michigan and went on to pursue a Ph.D. in Theatre. I had the good fortune to play with Jeanne recently and was awed by her spontaneity and joy. She went to high school with our mutual friend Jay Sukow and then went on to the University Of Michigan and Wayne State College. Her best-selling book, “Theatrical Improvisation: Short Form, Long Form, and Sketch-Based Improv” is a classic book on the history of improv and sketch comedy that gives a clear definition on this often ambiguous topic. The forward was written by Jeanne's friend, Keegan Michael Key. Her research is extensive and this is certainly a book to add to your Improv Library. Brimming with original interviews from leaders in the field such as Ron West, Charna Halpern, John Sweeny and Margaret Edwartowski, Theatrical Improvisation presents straightforward improvisational theory, history, and trends. She is a Professor of Theatre Arts at Edgewood College in Madison, Wisconsin and her students are really fortunate to have her wisdom and humor. Visit my website where I speak to today's leading innovators of improv. My guests are improvisers and therapists from all over the world who share their stories and offer insight into the unique ways they use improv. margotescott.com/podcast/

INTERVIEW BEGINS AT: 29:15 In the 1980's a pop culture explosion occurred in Professional Wrestling, it was everywhere, on TV's, in arenas, on toy shelves, on movie screens you name it...but where did this mass popularity come from, why did it explode? Because blueprints were put in place for just such a boom, and soon the wrestling business would change forever (for the better?) In the 1970's territories across the United States were developing wrestling into something more than a minor attraction, with a niche following, they made it personal, local shows made local heroes, and made the viewers believe. Each place was different, from presentation to actual wrestling styles, but soon, regional wrestling would go nation wide. We are thrilled to be joined by the great Terry Sullivan, who was the ring announcer and broadcaster for Big Time Wrestling in Detroit, Nikita Breznikov, a life long fan and historian of the classic WWWF (today's WWE) who eventually made his way into the busniess as manager of the legendary Nikoli Volkov, and rounding out this panel is a Rodney West, a second generation wrestling figure, son of the late great referee/booker/promoter/wrestling guru Ron West, Rodney along with his brother Brent grew up in and around the Georgia Wrestling scene and were drawn to the business likes moths to a flame. We share stories, memories and breakdown the business we all love from a bygone era, We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed recording! So kick back, enjoy and please rate and share the show..let's keep the audience growing. Thank you all And hey, check out our Merch Store for Shirts.

We finally tackle the classic superhero film... BATMAN 89!!!!

Famed movie critic Roger Ebert said that this 80's flick was the best movie about love that he'd seen in a long time. His original reviews states “Maybe that's because it's not about ‘love' as a Hollywood concept, but about love as growth, as learning to accept other people for who and what they are. There's romance in this movie…but what makes the film so special is that the (romance) and everything else is presented within the context of its characters finding out who they are, what they stand for and what they will not stand for.” Get ready to be swept off your feet and let love lift you up where you belong as Tim Williams and guest co-host, Ron West, discuss “An Officer and A Gentleman” from 1982 on this episode of the 80's Flick Flashback Podcast! Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode: In his book An Actor and a Gentleman Louis Gossett Jr. says that although he was honored to win his Oscar for this film especially being in competition with other veteran actors, he was disappointed that his co-star Richard Gere was not only not nominated for an Oscar, but he felt Gere should have been nominated and even won an Oscar for his role in this film. Many critics and others agreed with Gossett's sentiment feeling Gere should have been nominated for this performance, and as of January 2022 Gere has yet to be nominated for an Oscar. Paula (Debra Winger) shows Zach (Richard Gere) a photograph of her biological father, revealing that he was an Officer Candidate. The picture was actually of screenwriter Douglas Day Stewart when he graduated from Pensacola.

Molly McGrath is the adult daughter of a famed football coach who is desperate to be the head coach of her own team. When her wish is finally granted, Molly leaves her job coaching girls' track at an affluent high school to take over a football team at an inner-city Chicago high school —the kind of place where guard dogs are needed to patrol the campus. At first the new coach's idealism and optimism are suffocated with racial and gender prejudice, but eventually her overriding spirit begins to whip her unruly team into shape in this formulaic 80's football flick. So grab your your engraved stopwatch, leave your mark on the school locker, and put the cat costume on the dog to stand in as the school mascot as Tim Williams and guest co-host, Ron West, discuss “Wildcats” from 1986 on this episode of the 80's Flick Flashback Podcast! Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode: The filming for the movie was done during the summer. Extras were asked to show up in winter gear and act like it was cold out. The temperature was in the eighties on the days of filming.

Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads. Its time to pick up where things left off as Tim Williams is joined by the "Hill Valley Save the Clock Tower Committee" (aka the Co-Host Panel) as they continue their discussion on the "Back to the Future" Trilogy for this episode of the 80's Flick Flashback! Panel Includes Charlie Cotter, Chad Sheppard, and Laramy & Bethany Wells ("Moving Panels" Podcast) Pre-Recorded Segments from previous co-hosts include Ron West, Jeff Atkins, and Gerry D. ("Totally Rad Christmas" Podcast) Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode: The first film had had slightly more subtle placement deals with various companies including Toyota, Pepsi and Miller, but in the second, these deals started to take an active place in the story. Pepsi (with the fictional ‘Pepsi Perfect' variety) is even more prominent in the Café 80s, and there are Black and Decker products both real (the “antique” Dustbuster) and fictional (the food hydrating machine). Pizza Hut, meanwhile, was eager not just to show its logo on the pizza that gets hydrated, but actually provided a ‘professional food stylist' to the production, to ensure that said pizza looked as appetizing as possible onscreen. A running gag throughout the entire trilogy: every time Marty goes into the diner location for the first time (that's Lou's in 1955, Cafe '80s in 2015 and the saloon in 1885), he orders a beverage that he never actually gets to drink any of before being interrupted by a “Hey, McFly!” In Part III Marty notices the name of ‘Frisbie', an actual pie company, and presumably thinks it's just a coincidence that the name on the flat tray is similar to ‘Frisbee', the flying disc. Of course, the two are actually linked – the pie company gave the colloquial name to the disc-throwing game, before the Wham-O company trademarked the slightly altered ‘Frisbee' in the 1950s.

Like “Major League”, “The Natural” or even “Field of Dreams”, this 80's flick is one of those sports movies that always seems to be on one of the many basic cable TV channels every Spring and Summer. It doesn't matter whether it's two in the afternoon or two in the morning, somewhere in the outer reaches of cable TV, the main characters can be found bickering about baseball and who's taking who to bed. So if you believe in the church of baseball and long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days. then grab your bat, your glove, and garter belts as Tim Williams and guest co-host, Ron West, discuss “Bull Durham” from 1988 on this episode of the 80's Flick Flashback! Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode: “The candlesticks scene on the mound — I came up with that,” says Robert Wuhl, who played the team's pitching coach. Apparently, a week before the film started shooting, Wuhl's friend was getting married and he asked his wife what he should get as a gift. Her reply: Candlesticks always make a nice gift. Or find out where they're registered and perhaps a nice place setting. Wuhl ad-libbed that line during a hilarious meeting on the pitcher's mound in the film. The rest is history. And Wuhl says that ever since then, he's never had to think hard about what to get someone as a gift. For years, Ron Shelton has contemplated making a sequel and remarked, "I couldn't figure out in the few years right after it came out, what do you do? Nuke's in the big leagues, Crash is managing in Visalia. Is Annie going to go to Visalia? I've been to Visalia. That will test a relationship ... It was not a simple fable to continue with - not that we don't talk about continuing it, now that everyone's in their 60s".

If you were a kid or a teenager in 1989, no other movie was more anticipated than this iconic 80's flick. The first superhero movie to take the gritty and grounded approach, it was the comic book event of the decade and the film that transformed the campy Caped Crusader into the brooding Dark Knight. So fire up the Batmobile and meet us in Gotham City as Tim Williams and guest co-host, Laramy Wells and Ron West, discuss “Batman” from 1989 on this episode of the 80's Flick Flashback! Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode: Michael Keaton was unable to hear while wearing the Batsuit. He said that his claustrophobia helped get him in the proper mood to play Batman. "It made me go inward and that's how I wanted the character to be anyway, to be withdrawn," he said. Batman creator Bob Kane was to make a cameo in the film, but became ill, and shooting of his scene was not re-scheduled. Kane had drawn and signed the "Batman" sketch used by reporters to tease Knox, and Kane was to be the cartoonist who presented it. The Batmobile was built on the chassis of a Chevy Impala, and incorporated the engine of an Impala, the tail lights of a Ferrari, the fuel caps of a London bus, and jet engine parts from a Harrier Jump Jet. The sliding cockpit was also inspired by that of a Harrier, with the slim windows of a gun emplacement. Art director Terry Ackland-Snow added the headlights of a Honda Civic to the vehicle after noticing them on his wife's car. As a special promotion around the film's release date, MTV held a "Steal the Batmobile" contest, where the winner would be awarded one of the prototypes that had the engine removed. When the Joker tells Bob to tail Knox, Jack Nicholson ad-libbed his Grissom impression, complete with Jack Palance's breathy voice.

It's a BONUS EPISODE!! We couldn't allow any more time go by without discussing The Batman!! Laramy is joined by Tim Williams (80s Flick Flashback) and first timer Ron West. They will discuss the darkest... grittiest superhero movie yet! How does Robert Pattinson handle the cape and cowl? What did they think about the almost 3 hour runtime? Is this movie better than The Dark Knight? CORRECTIONS: Laramy incorrectly calls the movie Barton Fink, by the name Barton Fisk (which is a easy mistake for a comic book fan who watched Hawkeye).

To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1085/29 When we apply wisdom to our lives, our lives change for the better. No where is that truer than with money. Today on MoneyWise, financial author and teacher Ron Blue joins Ron West to reveal 6 life-changing bits of financial wisdom you need to know. Ron Blue is founder ofKingdom Advisors. 6 LIFE-CHANGE PRINCIPLES FOR MONEY 1. Understand that God owns it all. This is THE foundational principle of managing money biblically. Psalm 24:1 is just one of many verses proclaiming God's complete ownership. It reads, The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it. Most of the rest deal with the mechanics of managing money that anyone can follow, but Christians have to start with God's ownership and understanding that we're just stewards of what He entrusts to us. 2. Spend less than you earn. Here we look to Proverbs 13:11, which tells us, Dishonest money dwindles away, but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow. If you can't spend less than you earn, you can't save for the future because there's no money left to do it. You have to create margin in your finances or else you're just living paycheck-to-paycheck, and eventually you'll go into debt. 3. Avoid debt. The Bible never says that borrowing is a sin, and there are times when borrowing makes financial sense, such as to expand a business or get an education. But the Bible also never paints debt in a positive light and often warns against it. Proverbs 22:7 puts it in a way that a lot of people don't like to think about, but it's true nonetheless. It reads, The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender. 4. Build liquidity. That's a fancy financial advisor term for saving up an emergency fund. Proverbs 6:6 through 8 reads, Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. And of course, we always advise having 3 to 6 months living expenses in your emergency fund in case of a job loss or some other financial calamity. 5. Set long-term goals. Ephesians 5:15 through 17 tells us, Look carefully then how you walk! Live purposefully and worthily and accurately, not as the unwise and witless, but as wise (sensible, intelligent people), making the very most of the time. Do not be vague and thoughtless and foolish, but understanding and firmly grasping what the will of the Lord is. Setting long-term goals, like retirement or the kids' education, will help you plan your investments. 6. Be generous. If you've followed all the principles we've talked about, you're very likely to prosper financially, so you can afford to be more generous. II Corinthians 8:7 says But since you excel in everything in faith, in speech, in knowledge see that you also excel in this grace of giving.

John Carpenter directed a slew of classic films including "Escape From New York", "They Live", "Halloween", and "Big Trouble In Little China". One of his most celebrated works is this 80's flick. Upon release, the bleak horror movie was panned by critics as boring and over-indulgent with its violence. The masses barely bothered heading to the movie theaters to see it. In the years since, however, it has found an audience who recognize its excellence. The atmosphere, special effects and performances are all top notch. So grab your box of flares, a bottle of J&B Rare Blend Scotch, and don't freak out when we test your blood sample as Tim Williams and guest co-host, Ron West, discuss “The Thing” from 1982 on this episode of the 80's Flick Flashback Podcast! Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode: While discussing the character of MacReady, John Carpenter and Kurt Russell discussed having MacReady be a former Vietnam War helicopter pilot who was involved in some sort of tragedy and since felt disgraced by his service. Because of this, MacReady suffers from PTSD, alcoholism, and severe insomnia. This backstory ultimately did not make it into the finished film, though it explains why MacReady was awake to hear the dogs whining, why he isn't phased by the grotesque violence, and it also adds deeper context to the line "I'm a real light sleeper, Childs”. A scene with MacReady absentmindedly inflating a blow-up while watching the Norwegian tapes was filmed but was not used in the finished film. The doll would later appear as a "jump scare" with Nauls. Other scenes featured expanded or alternate deaths for various characters. In the finished film, Fuchs's charred bones are discovered, revealing he has died offscreen, but an alternate take sees his corpse impaled on a wall with a shovel. Nauls was scripted to appear in the finale as a partly assimilated mass of tentacles, but in the film, he simply disappears.

As a breeding ground for satire and comedy, the second city has long had a reputation for producing comedy anarchists, and with good reason. Names like Belushi, Farley or Tim Robinson immediately conjure images of untethered, primal forces of nature wreaking havoc on anything in their paths.  But all of this unbridled energy is useless if there is no focus. A cannon is only effective when you have someone to point it in the right direction and pull the trigger at the appropriate time. To me, our guest today, Ron West, exemplifies that more considered and technical side of the Second City family. 

Horror movies have been around since the late 1800s, yet not all of them are remembered as fondly as others. In 1984, horror master Wes Craven introduced moviegoers to not only one of the most iconic horror movies of the decade, but one of the most iconic figures in horror's history. So start a fresh pot of coffee, refill your caffeine pills, and whatever you do, don't fall asleep as Tim Williams and guest co-host, Ron West, discuss “A Nightmare on Elm Street” from 1984 on this episode of the 80's Flick Flashback! Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode: Krug (played by David Hess), the vicious, rapist-serial killer in Wes Craven's first horror movie, Last House on the Left, oozed with smarminess and one-liners, and liked to taunt and torture his victims before killing them, became a very similar type villain, but now in ghost form, in Nightmare on Elm Street. Again, we have a similar bad guy with a big mouth in that movie as well, one who haunts and terrorizes his victims before killing them, also with a similar last name, Krueger (an extension of Krug). The characters are so similar and their story arcs so similar - both were done in by vindictive parents who circumvented the law - you could almost view Nightmare on Elm Street as a sequel to Last House on The Left, which makes sense since these were two of Craven's earliest films. More work was done for Freddy's boiler room than made it into the film; the film crew constructed a whole sleeping place for Freddy, showing that he was quite a hobo, an outcast and reject from society, living and sleeping where he worked, and surrounding himself with naked Barbie dolls and other things as a showcase of his fantasies and perversions. This place was supposed to be where he forged his glove and abducted and murdered his victims. Heather Langenkamp's boyfriend at the time of the shooting is credited for creating Freddy's nursery rhyme.

Before “Friday Night Lights” there was this often forgotten 80's flick. It's not so much a film about the sport of high school football, but the effect of football on its characters. It features solid performances from its young actors, and became an important film in the career of its lead by showcasing the tremendous star power and acting skills of a man who would become a mega-movie-star. So grab your football pads, your cleats, and expect heavy rain to hit football field as Tim Williams and guest co-host, Ron “Rifleman” West, discuss “All the Right Moves” from 1983 on this episode of the 80's Flick Flashback Podcast! Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode: Jan De Bont was the film's cinematographer; Jan later went onto direct the movie “Speed" in 1994. In the scene in which Ampipe's team bus is pulling into Walnut Heights for the big game, Johnstown's Vo-Tech School in Richland Township, was used as the Walnut Heights School, which is actually about five miles away from where the game was played (the Point Stadium in downtown Johnstown).

Find out how a gold mine, a pocket watch, and a letter bring the past to life and bring a family back together. In this episode Jennie and Dianne talk with Ron West. Ron has spent many years portraying James F Burns, Jimmie to his friends, at historic events throughout Colorado. James Burns was a coal miner turned millionaire who was not all that thrilled with his wealth and the other millionaires he was forced to spend time with. Ron has spent years researching Burns and in a twist of fate was able to bring together some lost family treasures and build new friendships. All of this because of a mausoleum in an Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery. 

When hit movie producer, Jerry Bruckheimer was casually flipping through California magazine in 1983, he was suddenly struck by an image. It was a picture of fighter pilot's helmet with a plane reflected in the visor. Staring at the page, Bruckheimer couldn't escape one thought: “It looked like Star Wars on Earth.” That magazine picture - and its accompanying article - set into motion the creation of this iconic 80's Flick. A script would be crafted around the story of fighter pilots - their internal rivalry with one another, heroism when called on by their country and a deeply ingrained “need for speed.” So grab your aviator sunglasses, pull out your brown leather bomber jacket, and meet us in the “Danger Zone” where Tim Williams and returning guest co-host, Ron West, discuss “Top Gun” from 1986. We might just take your breath away. Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode: Future NASA astronaut Scott Altman piloted F-14 aircraft for many of the film's stunt sequences, having been recently stationed at NAS Miramar at time of filming. Altman was the pilot seen "flipping the bird" in the film's well-known opening sequence, as well as piloting the aircraft shown "buzzing the tower" throughout the film. The tension between Maverick and Iceman isn't just down to good acting, Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer kept their distance from each other and never socialized. After the "car chase" when Charlie tells Maverick that she didn't want anyone to find out she was falling for him, Maverick originally had a line to say. Tom Cruise forgot the line and "ad libbed" by kissing Kelly McGillis instead. Tony Scott liked it so much, he left the scene like that.

If you were a child of the 1980's then there are just some things you'll never forget about those lazy days of Summer. Short shorts. Tube socks. Neon colored friendship bracelets. Oakley sunglasses that you either had or wished you had. Walking around with your Sony walkman or boom box with your best cassette mixed tape with all the new pop hits you recorded off of the radio. Songs from artists like Prince, Michael Jackson, Hall & Oats, Cyndi Lauper, Kenny Loggins, Chicago, Pat Benetar, Def Leppard and Madonna, just to name a few. But nothing says Summer in the 80's to me like Summer Movies. You've got blockbusters and cult classics like Back to the Future, Big Trouble in Little China, Top Gun, Major League, The Empire Strikes Back, Predator, and Summer School. But what 80's movie is the epitome of Summer to you? That's the question I posed to some of my previous co-hosts recently, so put on a gnarly pair of shades, break out your Magnum PI-style Hawaiian shirt, and crank up the AC, as Tim Williams and his panel of guest co-hosts, Ron West, Jeff Atkins, Charlie Cotter, and Laramy Wells share their ultimate 80's Summer Movies on this very special episode of the 80's Flick Flashback!

It has been called the “Wizard of Oz” of our generation. Meaning that although it was not a blockbuster film at the time of its release, over the years it has become a rare family film that has been enjoyed by children, their parents, and even their grandparents as it has been “handed down”, in a sense, from generation to generation. It has also been known as one of the most quoted films of all time. You may think that’s “inconceivable”, but… get used to disappointment. So prepare for a battle of wits as Tim Williams and guest co-host Ron West take on the cliffs of insanity, the pit of despair, shrieking eels, and rodents of unusual size as we discuss “The Princess Bride” from 1987 on this episode of the 80’s Flick Flashback! Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode: Westley's headfirst dive into the quicksand was not how he was originally scripted to react — Elwes was supposed to step in and hold his nose, but felt that looked "feeble." "There was something rather unheroic about jumping into quicksand feet-first," he wrote. "Especially holding one's nose." So, the actor suggested a headfirst dive — an idea that gave everyone pause. While the sandpit featured a trapdoor that gave way to a host of padding, if Elwes executed the dive wrong, he could have broken his neck. Eventually the rejiggered leap was tested with a stuntman, who executed it perfectly, so Elwes was allowed to attempt the dive himself — and he nailed it. In fact, the scene you see in the finished film is actually the first take. "It definitely helped the movie," Scheinman wrote. "It's way more Errol Flynn-y and hero-y to dive than not to dive." There were no "shrieking eels" in the original novel. Instead, once Buttercup jumps overboard to escape her captors, Vizzini warns her of sharks in the water, and fills a cup with his own blood and throws it in the water to attract them. Count Rugen's death in the original novel was more graphic. After telling the "son of a b***h" he wants his father back, Inigo proceeds to cut Rugen's heart out, even describing what he's doing to Rugen, claiming that the count had figuratively done the same to him when he murdered his father years before (Inigo even tells Fezzik earlier on, "That is the sound of ultimate suffering. My heart made that sound when Rugen slaughtered my father. The Man in Black makes it now.") However, before Inigo finishes cutting out the Count's heart, Rugen dies of fright.

In the eighties, the high-concept movie was in vogue. Thanks largely to 70’s blockbusters Jaws and Star Wars, the eighties saw the repackaging of formula for audiences wanting to rekindle the thrills. If the roller coaster ride ain’t broke, don’t fix it. The amount of sequels that appeared in the 1980s was unheard of before. Many, unfortunately, were poor imitations, and few did better box office than the original film. Yet some were surprisingly good, especially when talented – even visionary – filmmakers were behind the camera. Somewhere between true stinkers (like Caddyshack 2) and improvements of the original (like The Empire Strikes Back) you can find a sequel that may not live up to the original, but can still be an enjoyable continuing story. So grab your plane ticket for Okinawa, Japan and start practicing your best drum technique as Tim Williams and guest co-host Ron West discuss “The Karate Kid Part II” from 1986 on this episode of the 80’s Flick Flashback podcast.

The 1980s was a golden era for blockbuster hits, and countless films released during this decade have gone on to become cult-classic films. One '80s movie that has certainly stood the test of time and continues to wax on in cinematic glory is The Karate Kid, which-- more than 30 years later-- is still adored by audiences of all ages. Not only did The Karate Kid provide an arsenal of catchphrases that seem to appropriately fit into almost any situation, it also, more importantly, inspired generations to stand up against bullies. Martial arts classes boomed thanks to this underdog story, and new people continue to be drawn to karate thanks to the heroic determination demonstrated in the film’s plot line. The Karate Kid’s legacy is also seen through a few of its sequels, its 2010 remake starring Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan, and its most recent comeback with the YouTube and Netflix series Cobra Kai. There’s a reason this film has had such an enduring appeal, as its predominant message of overcoming obstacles through hard work is something everyone can feel inspired by. If all this nostalgia has you wanting to sweep the leg, get your fly-catching chopsticks out, and find your inner crane, then you’re in the right place as Tim Williams and guest co-host, Ron West, discuss “The Karate Kid” from 1984 on this episode of the 80’s Flick Flashback podcast. Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode: Anyone familiar with the film and certainly everyone who has chosen to dress like The Karate Kid for Halloween will know that the Daniel LaRusso look isn’t complete without his blue and white headband. An article in the Huffington Post reveals that this costume choice was actually quite accidental. According to Ralph Macchio himself, Pat Morita just happened to have the lotus-flower print handkerchief in his pocket, and after using it to pat his brow, decided to put it on Ralph’s head. There was no mention of a headband in the script, but this little improvised costume addition has gone down as one of the most recognized pop-culture accessories of all time.

There’s no denying that this film has become a holiday tradition for many families around the world. Since the film’s release, it’s become regarded as a Christmas classic, and the original house shown in the movie has even been transformed into a tourist-attracting museum. Many families watch it every year around the holiday season, while cable-TV staple, TBS,  plays it continuously for 24 hours at least once a year. Between the captivating storytelling, quirky characters, and overall filming styles it has stood out compared to several other similarly-styled Christmas movies over the years. So take a sip of your Ovaltine, then grab your Little Orphan Annie Secret Decoder Ring, and your Red Ryder BB Gun as Tim Williams and guest co-host, Ron West, go back to 1940-esque Indiana with Ralphie, Randy, Mother and The Old Man to discuss “A Christmas Story” on this episode of the 80’s Flick Flashback! But be careful...or you’ll shoot your eye out, kid! Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover on this episode: In an interview with Variety, Billingsley explained that both Shepherd and Clark had a specific vision for the film and that Shepherd would often try to direct him after Clark had walked away. It wasn't until a decade ago when Warner Bros., the studio that purchased the movie from MGM, pushed for companies to manufacture action figures, board games, and every other kind of memorabilia associated with the movie. When Ward signed his contract to play Scut "Yellow Eyes" Farkus in the '80s, he didn't receive merchandising rights because of a mishap with his contract. So when Ward discovered the studio had authorized a figurine resembling Ward without his permission, he sued Warner Bros. and another company called Enesco. Eventually, Ward settled that and another merchandising lawsuit.

Legendary filmmaker Georges Méliès is often credited with making the first ever horror movie, which was called was The Haunted Castle. Horror movies have no doubt evolved since the early days with many filmmakers now relying on cheap scares and gore to horrify audiences. The ‘80s, however, were a great time for horror fans, with iconic franchises like A Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween, and Friday the 13th all getting a number of sequels in the decade. It may be hard to remember, but there was a time when the name Jason Vorhees wasn’t part of the horror lexicon. In 1980 director Sean S. Cunningham unleashed the original Friday the 13th, a film that would go on to define the slasher era through sequel after profitable sequel (though Jason’s iconic hockey mask wouldn’t actually show up until the third installment in 1982). So grab your canoes, backpacks, and machetes and come along with Ron West and I as we travel to Camp Crystal Lake to discuss the original “Friday the 13th”. Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover on this episode: Cunningham wanted to make the Mrs. Voorhees character "terrifying", and to that end he believed it was important that Palmer not act "over the top." There was also the fear that Palmer's past credits, as more of a wholesome character, would make it difficult to believe she could be scary. Palmer was paid $1000 per day for her ten days on set. In 1982, Gramavision Records released a LP record of selected pieces of Harry Manfredini's scores from the first three Friday the 13th films. On January 13, 2012, La-La Land Records released a limited edition 6-CD boxset containing Manfredini's scores from the first six films. It sold out in less than 24 hours. In the scene where Bill is found impaled to a door with arrows, his eye twitches continually because the eye effect that Tom Savini applied was actually burning Harry Crosby's eye and causing him excruciating pain. Most of the people involved in the original movie thought it was just a cash grab, a quick way to make money, including director Sean Cunningham, screenwriter Victor Miller, and Betsy Palmer, the star of the movie who played Mrs. Voorhees, the killer. Both Cunningham and Palmer said in interviews they were just trying to pay bills when they made this movie. None of them had much respect for the integrity and the artistry of the story they were creating. It was an obvious self-aware attempt to rip off and cash in on the Halloween phenomenon. In spite of that, it has become one of the most successful and beloved horror films ever.

Most long-running horror franchises have that one installment which was legitimately supposed to, but ultimately, did not end the franchise. Some have several of them. In Hollywood, producers (and sometimes audiences) will quickly voice their disgust if you ever dare leave money on the table. Not that anyone knew that in 1981. Instead, all Moustapha Akkad, Irwin Yablans, John Carpenter and Debra Hill wanted to do was to make a little more money off of the slasher gold rush they’d inadvertently started in 1978, and then bow out. Doing so, though, meant making some controversial story decisions with rotating directors and final edits. The resulting sequel they produced is inferior to the original, but Tim Williams and guest co-host, Ron West, still return to Haddonfield, Illinois to find "the Shape", also known as Michael Myers, as we discuss “Halloween II”. Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover on this episode: One common criticism is that the hospital is too conveniently dead, even for a night shift, for Michael to be able to walk around unnoticed and kill the hospital staff. Rick Rosenthal said he based this off a personal experience he had with his wife where they once attended a hospital late at night and it was completely deserted, save for a few doctors and nurses and the patients. Additionally early dialogue and the script refers to it as "Haddonfield clinic" not a fully staffed hospital. According to the original script there was a scene depicting the blonde reporters death, her car breaks down on the side of the road with her getting assistance from a guy who hits on her, with her responding in disgust, the truck driver then leaves her, after the tire is replaced she opens the trunk to Myers who then kills her and takes the car, as a nod to what he did in the first film.

As the brainchild of an up-and-coming screenwriter, an established movie director, and the mastermind behind Motown Records, Barry Gordy, a low-budget niche film mixed martial arts, heavily synthesized pop songs, supernatural adventure, Bruce Lee, and over-the-top comedy that has surprised and entertained audiences for decades after its initial box office release. The chart-topping soundtrack was just as much a part of the film as the main characters, but far from being a flimsy visual vehicle to hang some songs on, it found a way to use stylish silliness and insightful martial arts concepts to become a story of hope and purpose.

In 1987, a new kind of gritty, ultra-violent sci-fi action movie was born, but it came with nods to comic book heroes, and classic spaghetti westerns. Helmed by a little known Dutch director with a penchant for violence and nudity and starring a method actor better known for his work in the theater than in film, on paper it must have seemed like a pretty risky prospect to the studio bosses over at Orion Pictures. It proved to be anything but, with Paul Verhoeven's provocative directorial style meshing with a clever script by Edward Neumeier and Michael Miner, "RoboCop" fused fast-paced sci-fi action with biting satire to create a film that ranks among the decade's best, even if it doesn’t hold up as well today as we had hoped. On this episode, Tim Williams and guest co-host, Ron West, share their memories of this iconic 80's classic! Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover on this episode: Peter Weller hired Moni Yakim, the head of the Movement Department at Juilliard, to help create an appropriate way for him to move his body while wearing the RoboCop suit. He and Moni had envisioned RoboCop moving like a snake, dancing around its targets very elusively. The suit, however, proved to be too heavy and cumbersome. Instead, at the suggestion of Moni, it was decided that they would slow down RoboCop's movements in order to make them more appealing and plausible. Filming stopped for three days, allowing Peter and Paul Verhoeven to discuss new movements for the suit. The original gun for RoboCop was a Desert Eagle, but this was deemed too small. A Beretta 93R was heavily modified by Ray Williams of Freshour Machine, Texas City, Texas, who extended the gun barrel to make it look bigger and more proportional to RoboCop's hand. The gun holster itself was a standalone piece that was not integrated into the suit. Off-screen technicians would operate the device on cue by pulling cables that would force the holster to open up and allow the gun to be placed inside. Verhoeven originally wanted to make significant changes to the Neumeier and Miner’s second, more polished version of the RoboCop screenplay in order to give the story more realism. The most contentious of these changes would have seen Murphy embroiled in an extramarital affair with his partner Ann Lewis, prior to his near-execution at the hands of Boddicker and his crew. Given a deadline of just two months to make the changes Verhoeven wanted, Neumeier sent Verhoeven a stack of American comic books so the director could get a clearer idea of what they had been aiming for with their script. The scene in which ED-209 malfunctions and ends up killing OCP junior executive Mr. Kinney was actually inspired by a fantasy Neumeier had during his days as a young executive in Hollywood. Neumeier sat through many a soul-crushing meeting during his time in the movie business, and would often daydream about the idea of a robot bursting into the room and killing everyone.

1985 was a big year for movies! It was a year dominated by flying DeLoreans, Breakfast Clubs, Beverly Hills Cops, as well as massive pop artists like Madonna, Michael Jackson, Cindy Lauper, and Prince. It was also the year of one of the greatest movie adventures of them all! The secret caves. The lost map. The hidden treasure. The Fratelli’s. What an exciting time to be alive as a kid, back when you knew it was time to get home when the streetlights came on and just riding bikes with your friends meant the world was yours to explore...until dinner time at least. 1985 was the year that Austoria, Oregan got put on the map, the “truffle shuffle” became the newest dance move, and the kids from the “goon docks” took the oath that “Goonies never say die!” On this episode, Tim Williams and guest co-host, Ron West, share their memories of this iconic 80's classic! They also share their favorite characters, movie moments, and behind the scenes trivia along the way. Here are some additional behind the scenes trivia we were unable to cover on this episode: The Goonies set became a Hollywood hot spot. Celebrities such as Dan Akroyd, Harrison Ford, and Pee-wee Herman all visited the set while the film was in production. Corey Feldman said that Michael Jackson hung out at the set so often that "he was basically part of the cast." Feldman recalled, "It was like we had the coolest set on the lot. Harrison Ford came and walked the caves with us. We felt like we were in Indiana Jones." When the Fratelli brothers argued, Anne Ramsey really slapped Robert Davi. She was told to hit him as hard as she could. Production designer J. Michael Riva said in a National Public Radio interview that, before shooting the first scenes with the prop map, he thought that it looked good but not old enough, so in his hotel room, he aged it with coffee and (when he couldn't find paint) his own blood. Much of the theme music for the film comes from the 1948 "Adventure of Don Juan" (1948) starring Errol Flynn. Sloth is seen in his dungeon room watching similar swashbuckling films from the 1940s and '50s on TV and imagines himself a hero like Flynn, as evidenced by his sliding/slicing down the sail of the pirate ship near the end, which is also from another Errol Flynn film. Cyndi Lauper co-wrote the theme song "Goonies 'R' Good Enough", and shot a music video that features a cameo by the film's executive producer Steven Speilberg. The 12-minute video basically tells the movie's story as a musical. Cyndi Lauper plays Cyndi (a new Goonie recruit), The Bangles play pirates, and Andre the Giant plays Sloth.

In 1988, Eddie Murphy re-teamed with "Trading Places" director, John Landis, to make his tour-de-force, multi-character playing masterpiece known as "Coming To America".  It officially made Eddie a bonafide movie star and gave us one of the most memorable and most quoted comedy movies of the decade. On this episode, Tim Williams and guest co-host Ron West share their memories of this 80's classic and what they picked up on after re-watching it more recently. Show Notes: Here are some additional behind the scenes stories we didn't get to talk about during the episode. John Landis is quoted as saying "What we discovered was that the makeup freed Eddie. Once he was in the makeup, he was just as fresh as when he was 19. In fact, the people who made The Nutty Professor said they loved working with Sherman Klump, but they hated working with Eddie Murphy. Photographer Bruce McBroom, who's worked with Murphy on multiple films, said the actor "owned [a] character and inhabited it," and could maintain that persona as long as he was in costume. He notes that on Coming to America everyone thought Murphy was in a bad mood, but that he was just "playing that man who’s in a bad mood.” Cuba Gooding, Jr. shot a scene in which his character (Boy Getting Haircut) tells Clarence that he does not have money to pay for his haircut. Clarence responds by cutting a patch out of the boy's hair. But to Gooding's disappointment, the scene was deleted. The game that Akeem mentions to McDowell at the restaurant, between the Giants and Packers, actually happened on September 15, 1985. The Packers won 23-20.

Andrew and Jessica have talked on previous episodes about valuation; one of the methodologies is the market method which compares past sales, multiples of earnings and percentage of sales to the sales price. It is one of the most reliable approaches for valuation and what eventually comes out of these data points are rules of thumb. These rules of thumb are backed up by statistical analysis of deals and closes in specific industries; the natural variations between one market and another are reflected in the rules of thumb, which are used to estimate a business value and industries benchmarks, like costs of sales, percentage of rent, materials cost, labor cost and even pick up anomalies. Listen to the experts talking about rules of thumb, who also bring some interesting cases in specific industries.   Listing of the week: Joe Santora (Triad) Multi-location gun store in North Carolina.

In this free preview of the latest Between The Sheets Patreon special, covering the second half of Eddie Gilbert and Paul Heyman's run booking the Continental Wrestling Federation in 1988, Kris and David look at a point of contention from when Eddie was fired or quit: Why were tapes to FNN/Score and various local affiliates either missing (to save a few dollars by not overnighting it, really?) or containing the wrong footage? After all, Ron West prided himself in getting that sort of thing correct… For the full show, go to Patreon.com/BetweenTheSheets and become a patron for just $5/month. --- They're baaaaack! After we set the table in Part 1, we jump back to the middle of August 1988, after USA Championship Wrestling has been sold to David Woods, resulting in the reintegration of the east Tennessee circuit into Continental. We take a look at the dearth (and inaccuracy) of Continental information in the newsletters when Eddie Gilbert and Paul Heyman weren't there, Brian Pillman's planned move to Alabama, Eddie overdoing certain types of angles (and angles in general), the differences in the coverage of Matwatch and the Observer, David Woods overcomplicating everything by airing USA reruns before CWF in Montgomery, the disastrous expansion and resulting roster bloat, Ron West replacing Jack Curtis as GM, ridiculous claims about Bam Bam Bigelow's pay, and more before getting to the main event: Eddie's "injury" and departure. Did Eddie fake a neck and shoulder injury? Why did he blatantly lie about not wrestling outside of a favor for his dad while he was out? Did Ron West, Charlie Platt, and Bob Armstrong sabotage him from the inside? Did Jerry Jarrett sabotage him from the outside? Did Missy Hyatt accidentally sabotage him? Was Eddie reeling too hard from the death of the UWF and trying to turn a dozen wrestler small territory into a national promotion? Plus how did Steve Beverly tell the story differently in the Matwatch farewell annual four years later? All that and MUCH more in a great show, one of our very best yet.
