Ep 160: Everyone's Favorite Uncle / A Tribute to John Candy

With the help of returning pal Raina Madison, we celebrate the films of the one and only John Candy.

4 months ago

Legendary comedic actor John Candy left us on March 4th, 1994 at the age of 43, much to the dismay of his millions of fans. To help celebrate his life and career, we have a returning guest-host and John Candy super-fan, Retroid and co-host of the Spooky Picture Show, Raina Madison !

We each picked 2 of our favorite Candy films to spotlight, but knowing us, it's a safe bet we'll mention way more than that. Though John was probably far too humble to have ever believed it, his enormous absence is still felt these 30 years later. Fortunately, he left us a library of fun to remember him by!
