Episode 347: Planes, Trains, and Automobiles

We wind down the year with some grab-bag faves that we just really want to watch, beginning with a Thanksgiving holiday classic: John Hughes's Planes, Trains, and Automobiles (1987), in which Neal (Steve Martin) is trapped on a holiday road trip from hell with the friendly, lovable, and disaster-prone Del (John Candy). A forty-five-minute flight to Chicago can sometimes take three days, it seems. Next week, Rhys Darby, Sally Hawkins, and a duck cause Lauren to have an existential crisis! We're talking Love Birds!
