Episode 157: Sixteen Candles (1984)

We celebrate the sixth anniversary of the show by talking about a pretty big film and asking all the right questions. What's the deal with Jake Ryan's parents, how much does the prom queen love the school showers, and can you just get an exchange student to come do manual labor for you in your retirement community? Strap on your headgreat and/or neck brace, toss that pizza on the turntable, pop a muscel relaxer or two, and join us for our discussion of the John Hughes film to feature the most cartoon sound effects, Sixteen Candles! It's been a while since we've come down on opposite sides of a film so this is a fun one.Consider supporting the show on Patreon Full episodes are available on: Blame it on Rio The House on Sorority Row A He-Man and She-Ra Christmas The Hollywood Knights The Great Outdoors Silver Bullet One Magic Christmas The Cabbage Patch Kids First Christmas Under the Cherry Moon Haunted Honeymoon CommandoBeverly Hills Madam Happy Birthday to Me A Christmas Dream A Garfield Christmas SupergirlGarlic is as Good as Ten Mothers Who's Harry Crumb Missing in Action 2: The Beginning Revenge of the Stepford Wives Evil Dead II DuneA Claymation Christmas CelebrationHoward the DuckHow to Beat the High Cost of LivingThey Live& more.. Including our 80's Handshake 5, 90's Handshake 5, Questions and Answers, Interviews & covering/ranking all movies in the Friday the 13th Franchise! Merch on TeePublic Visit our WebsiteVisit our YouTube ChannelFollow us on TwitterAnd on InstagramFind us on Facebook
