#6 - “National Lampoon’s Vacation” (1983) with Chris McMichen

from 80s Flick Flashback · host Timothy Williams

In July of 1983, director Harold Ramis took us on a cross-country comedic adventure with one of the most well-known, and often most beloved families in pop culture today - The Griswolds. The Griswold’s first cinematic adventure takes us from Chicago to California as the good-hearted, but dimwitted patriarch, Clark W. Griswold, attempts to drive his family to “Wally World” for a good, old fashioned family Vacation. On this episode, Tim Williams and guest co-host, Chris McMichen, share their memories of this 80's classic, tell a few of their own family vacation stories, and give some behind the scenes trivia along the way. There are no additional trivia notes for this episode.
