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

To this day - twenty-two years later - you can still walk into a room anywhere in the civilized world and shout “Who ya gonna call?” and get an emphatic hollaback of “GHOSTBUSTERS!” Is there more that needs to be said? Yes, there is. About three hours worth if you're Paul, Javi, and the preternatural Producer Brad! For a franchise that has been rehashed, rebooted, re-animated, and spun-off so many times, the original still holds the power to provoke laughter, surprise, wonder, and, occasionally, a low grumble of “dude, that Venkman's kind of a lech." It was the eighties, and if you were an alum of SNL, times were good, especially for Dan Aykroyd, who, along with Harold Ramis and Ivan Reitman turned his longtime obsession with the the paranormal into a humongously budgeted comedic spectacle on the scale of the epic blockbusters of Lucas and Spielberg. Anchored by a master class in snark presented by Bill Murray, with Ramis, Aykroyd, and everyman extraordinaire Ernie Hudson rounding out the titular team, the supernaturally amazing cast includes Sigourney “The Most Exhalted Queen of the Universe” Weaver, Annie “the unsung MVP of the Ghostbusters” Potts, and the ever lovable Rick Moranis as the world's most indefatigable accountant. Let's face it folks, there's two epochs in history, before “he slimed me” and after “he slimed me," and the Multiplex Overthruster crew has seen them both. So dust off your Tobin's Spirit Guide, power up your PK meter, and bust out the neutrona wands, because many Zuuls and Shubs are about to find out what it's like to be roasted on the depths of the Sloar, and there's only one call to make - GHOSTBUSTERS!Show Notes:US Theatrical release date: June 8, 1984US Weekend Box Office June 8, 1984US 1984 Top Grossing MoviesAFI Catalog Entry for GhostbustersRoger Ebert's Ghostbusters ReviewNYT/Janet Maslin Ghostbuster ReviewA look at Dan Akroyd's original script for ‘Ghostbusters'Dan Aykroyd Explains Spooky Way He Came Up With Original 'Ghostbusters' IdeaTeenage Sigourney Weaver Seen Enjoying Beatles' Hollywood Bowl Concert in ‘Eight Days a Week' DocCasper's creators aren't so friendly - UPI ArchivesPatrick NagelTheme music by Mike McGuillAdditional voicework by Russell BentleySummer of '84 voiced by Colby ElliottFollow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

How do you follow Jesus when the culture celebrates what God's Word calls sin? It's one of the biggest questions Christians are facing today. This week on the Known Legacy Podcast, Bill and Travis unpack a post Travis shared that sparked an important conversation about sin, truth, grace, and what it means to faithfully follow Christ in today's culture. Together they discuss: How followers of Jesus should view sin Why compromising God's truth is never the answer How to let Scripture—not culture—be your ultimate authority How Jesus responded to people caught in sin with both truth and compassion How to stand firm in your faith without losing your love for people If you've ever felt unsure of how to respond to the issues our culture is facing—or how to speak the truth with both conviction and grace—this episode is for you.

Original Release Date: Monday 30 June 2026    Description:   Tomorrow is Canada Day and the end of the week is Independence Day in the USA. Your friends in podcasting have thoughts about celebrating. They have thoughts about Team Canada's big win in the World Cup. They have thoughts about why very few of the listeners to this podcast are in Canada! Phil got back from the Carolinas and has stories about being the “Guest of the Day” in Charlotte, North Carolina (the Queen City), and about beaches and alligator encounters in Kiawah Island, South Carolina (the Lowcountry). Dean asks Phil about Bill Murray's baseball team in Charleston and Phil regales with tales of Carolina Day and America250. Turning to show business, the gents celebrate the best box office year at the movies since 2019 and glean some important lessons from that success, lessons they fear may be lost on the industry, but which certainly seem to be lost on the press covering the industry. Particular focus gets put on the just-opening, and already disastrous Supergirl and on Sam Raimi's 2026 “survivor horror thriller film”, Send Help.

The 46th anniversary of the debut of this program happened earlier this week.  We decided to revisit it this week, as more footage of the show has found its way online in the last 6 years like Isaac Asimov talking about the future, Chuck Norris doing some martial arts, and Phil Donahue supposedly dating Bill Murray's grandmother.  Also, a sitting senator was supposedly an occasional guest?!

Stephen Tobolowsky has gifted us with indelible character performances while living an extraordinary life that spans from Texas roots to show biz lore to telepathy and beyond.Stephen reflects on his earliest pull toward Hollywood, when even as a child playing cowboys, he imagined the action as if it were being filmed. That instinct would carry him from Texas to Broadway to Los Angeles, constantly seeking opportunities to create. And his capabilities stretch beyond acting and music to include a Universe connection that has invited intriguing insights, unexplained knowing and“coincidences.” In fact, Stephen's abilities inspired David Byrne to write a song called Radiohead which led the band Radiohead to become exactly that.Best known by many as Groundhog Day's painfully persistent Ned Ryerson, Stephen comes loaded with behind-the-scenes intel on the film's famously complex shoot, during which he and Bill Murray (portraying a weatherman!) were kept on constant standby to shoot the scene in every possible weather condition for director Harold Ramis. The conversation winds from Stephen's participation in Thelma & Louise's iconic final moment to Brad Pitt's instant star quality to a chilling moment, on location for  Mississippi Burning, were Stephen, playing a KKK grand wizard, was pulled aside by a Klansman and told, “We will be watching you.” Stephen opens up about his collaborations and creative relationships, including his connection to playwright Beth Henley and how he helped shape her Pulitzer Prize-winning Crimes of the Heart and his enduring love story and best-friendship with his wife, Actress/Director Ann Hearn.From Memento to Silicon Valley, Stephen reflects on the wide range of roles he's brought to life, offering insight into Christopher Nolan's storytelling brilliance, Norman Lear's landmark contributions and the stark terror of performing Live In Front Of A Studio Audience. He also speaks candidly about being entirely recognizable and shares what folks tend to run over and say when they become HIS Ned Ryerson!And Stephen brings his masterful storytelling to IMDB Roulette, covering One Day At A Time, The Goldbergs, Spaceballs, Glee and Nobody Wants This while weaving Hollywood history with personal perspectives and navigating the curious intersection of art and life.In current media--Weezy: Outlast The Jungle on NetflixLisa: Book, The Correspondent by Virginia EvansPath Points of Interest:Stephen Tobolowsky BooksStephen Tobolowsky - WikipediaThe Tobolowsky Files PodcastStephen Tobolowsky on IMDBStephen Tobolowsky on FacebookOutlast The Jungle The Correspondent by Virginia Evans

Comedy legend Demi Adejuyigbe joins me to defend Space Jam.We get into why the original Space Jam remains one of the most beloved sports movies of the 90s, why Space Jam: A New Legacy completely misses the point, and what makes the original such a perfect crowd-pleaser decades later. Along the way we discuss Michael Jordan, Bill Murray, Looney Tunes chaos, basketball movies, nostalgia, Ready Player One, and why modern studios still don't understand what audiences actually want from family films.We also talk about Demi's incredible career, from the beloved Punch Up The Jam podcast to his live comedy shows, and hear the unbelievable story of how a joke Letterboxd review somehow got him credited on the Space Jam: A New Legacy Wikipedia page.If you grew up with Michael Jordan, Bugs Bunny and the Monstars, this one's for you.⭐ Support the show on Patreon for:Episodes 24 hours earlyAd FreeBonus ContentExclusive Polls and Updatespatreon.com/everyonesacriticpod

The Davis and Davis Show focused on discussing actor-comedians who started their careers in stand-up comedy before transitioning to film. Scott and Burke each compiled lists of 15 comedic actors, with some overlapping selections including Gene Wilder, Richard Pryor, Lucille Ball, Peter Sellers, Robin Williams, Carol Burnett, Jim Carrey, Mel Brooks, Eddie Murphy, and Bill Murray. They discussed the qualifications for their list, noting that while some actors like Mel Brooks and Peter Sellers didn't strictly do stand-up, they had sufficient comedy backgrounds in sketch comedy and improvisation. The show covered the careers of multiple comedians including their filmographies, notable roles, and personal backgrounds, though they ran out of time to complete the full list of 15 actors each had prepared.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Y llegó el final de temporada. Y claro que terminamos en un campamento de verano. Porque pocos escenarios han dado tanto al cine y las series: el campamento es un lugar donde el tiempo se comprime, las emociones se amplifican y, dependiendo de la película que estés viendo, puedes terminar enamorado, traumatizado o directamente muerto. A veces las tres cosas. En este episodio repasamos todo el género: desde Bill Murray inventando el monitor de campamento anarquista en Meatballs (1979), hasta el terror fundacional de Viernes 13 y el final imposible de Sleepaway Camp. Pasando por la parodia absoluta de Wet Hot American Summer —la película que fracasó en 2001 y que Netflix convirtió en serie en 2015 con el mismo reparto, 15 años más tarde, interpretando versiones más jóvenes de sus personajes sin ningún pudor—, la belleza indie de Moonrise Kingdom y la fantasía musical de Camp Rock. Y cerramos donde hay que cerrar: en Kellerman's, en el verano de 1963, con Dirty Dancing. Con Mon Suárez. Y los memes de @diamocasin. Con El Selenita a cargo de la creatividad digital.

A little social experiment, does our show have a reputation? Other media in this town won't touch us but why? At this point, if we have a “reputation”, we might as well own up to it, right? We got some videos from a P1 who went to the Bill Murray concert over the weekend and wasn't impressed

Bill Murray Meet Jan Vogler: A "Rain-Soaked" New Worlds Review My pal Robert McCready and I went to see America's beloved actor Bill Murray with classical musicians Jan Vogler, Mira Wang and Vanessa Perez. It was an evening of magic in the Lowcountry of South Carolina at Middleton Place, a breathtaking location. Poignant, light-hearted, thought-provoking, funny? It was all of those things. When Bill sang the very last note of "America" by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim, the performers all took a bow. In the never next moment buckets of water began pouring down. We scrambled to the car, but still managed to record some thoughts about the show. Watch or listen and hear the highlights and what the boys thoughts.

The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk www.LearningLeader.com New Book -- The Price of Becoming www.LearningLeader.com/Becoming Austin Kleon is the NYT bestselling author of Steal Like an Artist, Show Your Work, and Keep Going. He's a writer who draws, a former librarian, and one of the most original thinkers on creativity working today. His new book is Don't Call It Art: 10 Ways to Create Like a Kid Again. This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. Key Learnings   Stay light. Bill Murray told ballplayers that if you stay light, loose, and relaxed, you can play at the highest level. Same with acting, writing, anything. Austin keeps a photo of Bill in his studio as a reminder. Play is the work. A lot of Austin's best work requires a sense of play. It's hard to tell where one ends and the other begins. Go to the analog desk first. Austin has a digital desk and an analog desk. Nothing electronic is allowed at the analog desk. He starts there with nothing and sees what comes. Most people never give themselves the time, space, and materials to make something of what's swirling inside them.  People want to watch someone who is activated. "People will pay every night to show up and see somebody believe in themselves." (Kim Gordon, Sonic Youth) The market for something to believe in is infinite. (Hugh MacLeod) The world is full of people just doing their thing. They're hungry to see someone on fire for something. The writer's job: take what everyone is thinking and put it into words. "You gave me the words" is the highest compliment a reader can give. Effortless is earned. People say the Friday newsletter looks easy. Austin's reply: Do it every Friday for 13 years, then call me. A place to put things makes you notice more. Thoreau took morning walks knowing he'd write later, so he paid closer attention. Carry a camera, and you start seeing shots everywhere. Live for the living, not for the writing. There's a tension between living your life and documenting it. Don't lose yourself to the feed. Your attention is the most valuable thing you have. Everyone wants to take it. The real challenge of modern life is making sure you're the one who decides where it goes. The best teachers are perpetual students. You realize what you know and don't know only when you try to teach it. Toggle between knowing and not knowing. The moment you think you know what you're doing, the work gets stale. You start running on routine instead of need. To be an amateur is to be a lover. The French root means "lover of." An amateur does it out of love, not material reward. Every great CEO should be put in a room with a four-year-old. They'd both learn something. Kids knock the pompous certainty right out of you. "I don't know. How do you think we should figure it out?" Austin's kids taught him it's less important to know everything than to know how to find out. The leader isn't the one who speaks while everyone listens. The leader listens, asks questions, stays curious, and wonders how everyone is doing. Look for who's having fun, not who's successful. Fun is underrated. Serious people have a serious time. Do it with lightness and it's contagious. "A master in the art of living draws no sharp distinction between his work and his play." (Lawrence Pearsall Jacks) He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence through whatever he's doing and leaves others to decide whether he's working or playing. To himself, he always appears to be doing both. Ask "What does the universe want to show me today?" A useful fiction. Tell yourself the world is trying to send you messages and suddenly you see a hundred of them. Have the toy before you know what you'll do with it. Austin buys typewriters, then asks what to make. Get the bicycle first. In six months you'll know what kind you actually want. Steal an idea someone only did once and turn it into a whole thing. Austin saw a single typewriter interview, made it a series, and has done more than 20. Put the human hand in the work. Austin decided 20 years ago to make it obvious a human made his stuff. In the age of AI, it stands out more than ever. People want the imperfection. Writing is thinking. People think you gather your ideas then write them down. The act of writing is the act of figuring out what you actually think. That's the hard part. Differentiate yourself by reading a book outside your field. Swim a little further out than everyone else and you find new water. Focus on what you can control. A writer controls only what's between the covers. Did you do a good job? Were you clear? Were you helpful? The rest isn't up to you. Austin's champagne moment a year from now: his kids flourishing. The older he gets, the less the books mean and the more his family does. Reflection Questions Where is your analog desk? Do you have a space with no screens where you go to make something of what's swirling inside you? Are you activated? When people watch you work, do they see someone on fire for it, or someone just going through the motions? What's one idea from outside your field you could steal this week? Where could you swim a little further out and find new water?

Bill Murray stars as a miserable Pittsburgh weatherman covering the annual Punxsutawney Phil event, over and over and over and...Co-starring Andie MacDowell, Chris Elliott and Stephen Tobolowsky.  Written and directed by Harold Ramis.

Back in 2016, Word Balloon welcomed the late great satirist and comedy legend Tony Hendra for a fascinating conversation that covered everything from modern political comedy to the birth of some of the most influential comedy institutions of the last fifty years.Tony joined us to promote the comedy album Are There Any Triggers Out There?, but the discussion quickly became a remarkable tour through his own comedy history. Hendra was one of the founding creative voices behind National Lampoon and The National Lampoon Radio Hour, which became the first national sketch comedy showcase for performers like Gilda Radner, Christopher Guest, John Belushi, Bill Murray, and many other future comedy giants before their rise on Saturday Night Live and beyond.Tony also co-wrote National Lampoon's Lemmings, the legendary off-Broadway stage parody of Woodstock and youth culture that became a launching pad for many of the same performers and helped define the aggressive, counterculture edge of 1970s American comedy. We also talked about Tony's years at Cambridge Footlights, where he performed sketch comedy alongside future Monty Python members John Cleese and Graham Chapman during a revolutionary era for British comedy.And of course, fans know Tony best on screen as the hilariously exasperated Ian Faith, manager of This Is Spinal Tap, delivering some of the film's most quotable moments while trying to hold together the world's most disastrous rock band.It's a funny, insightful conversation with one of comedy's sharpest and most influential voices

"I just feel so alone, even when I'm surrounded by other people." On this week's episode, we return to Tokyo for a bleary-eyed re-evaluation of Sofia Coppola's 2003 indie dramedy Lost in Translation. Despite being often referenced on the podcast, it was time to finally let Frank air his grievances about this era of Bill Murray's career and see how the movie holds up over 20 years later. Is it really intended as a May-September romance or is it just about the need for connection? Does the movie's view of quirky Japan feel overly snarky and borderline racist? Is it a dick move for an actor to ask if he should turn his head left or right? Has anyone actually figured out the secret whisper at the end of the movie? Pour yourself a glass of whiskey and make it Suntory time with the latest Film Junk Podcast.

Veteran comedy writer Tom Leopold started out as an actor, working with James Mason, Robert Preston and Ted Knight before creating comedy material for legends Steve Allen, Bob Hope and Mary Tyler Moore and writing hit series like “Cheers” and “Seinfeld” (scripting the memorable “Babu” episode, among others). Tom sat down with Gilbert and Frank to talk about early acting roles on “Gunsmoke” and “Mannix,” his days on the “National Lampoon Radio Hour” with Christopher Guest and Bill Murray and his years-long friendships with pals Paul Shaffer, Richard Belzer and Harry Shearer.
