Month of Thanks: Planes, Trains, and Automobiles / John Candy and Steve Martin Draft

Season 5 · Episode 38

Monday, November 24, 2025 • Duration 01:27:36

We're closing the yearbook for our Month of Thanks by revisiting the classic Thanksgiving movie Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. This John Hughes film starring John Candy and Steve Martin is near the top of the list for movies we love here at PCY. We will even go so far as to say John Candy should have been in the Oscar conversation for this memorable role.

In honor of the two great leads, our draft this week looks back at the careers of these two legends. We draft our favorite movies starring Candy and/or Martin. Hop into your favorite mode of transportation and listen now!

1980: Caddyshack / Top Bill Murray Stuff

Season 3 · Episode 35

Monday, September 25, 2023 • Duration 01:02:55

Send us a textIt's happening! After close to three years, we're finally talking about maybe our collective favorite movie ever: 1980's Caddyshack! No movie has been more quoted, more watched, and more important to bringing us together with our friends than Caddyshack. In this episode, we talk all about what makes it great in our opinion.

One of the reasons Caddyshack is so wonderful is the performance of Bill Murray. While Ted Knight (Judge Smails), Rodney Dangerfield (Al Czervik), and Chevy Chase (Ty Webb) are also at the top of their game, Murray's Carl Spackler stands out as much as anyone else. We cap the episode off by drafting our favorite Bill Murray movies and other credits. Well...we're waiting...for you to listen!

1980: Trivial Pursuit / Top Board Games of All-Time

Season 3 · Episode 34

Monday, September 18, 2023 • Duration 01:04:54

Send us a textIf there is one thing we love at PCY more than nostalgia, it might be trivia. The arrival of Trivial Pursuit in the 80s took the board game world by storm. At least that's how we remembered it. We talk about our first memories of the game (Spiro Agnew) and even pit Brad against Giff in a quick trivia match.

After the exciting mano a mano, we finish the episode by drafting our favorite board games. Do you like Scattergories, Pictionary, Monopoly, Sorry? Listen now to hear who wins and if your favorite game made one of our lists!

1980: Flash Gordon / Top One-Time Movie Characters

Season 3 · Episode 33

Monday, September 11, 2023 • Duration 01:36:59

Send us a textDave is back! When our sometime host Dave heard we were doing 1980, he requested we discuss one of his favorite movies, Flash Gordon. None of the rest of us had seen this movie, and it is quite an experience. While it may not be the best movie ever made, it definitely has found its way into pop culture still today, thanks in no small part to the movie Ted. It also doesn't hurt that the music was done by Queen. It's a movie everyone should probably see once.

Flash Gordon was pretty clearly thought to be a franchise with multiple sequels, but it didn't work out that way. So our draft in this one is our favorite characters who only ever appeared in one movie. Obviously a very broad topic, we cover a lot of ground and are sure to mention many greats that you will love.

1980: The Jerk (1979) / Top Quotes from The Jerk

Season 3 · Episode 31

Monday, September 4, 2023 • Duration 49:47

Send us a textWe were 4 years old in 1980, so when we started this show we figured that would be as far back as we'd go. But now that we're actually focusing on the year 1980, we are making an exception. And you can ALWAYS make an exception for Steve Martin. The Jerk was released in December of 1979. But it was such a great and important movie (especially for Brad) that we're including it now. It'd a great way to kickoff the new month!

We'll share our memories and break the movie down for you in all its glory. And since this is one of the most quotable movies of all-time, we finish it off by drafting our favorite quotes from the movie. It's a fun draft and a good way to keep us on track! So pop open your thermos and enjoy!

2018: Life in Pieces / TV Series that Ended Too Soon

Season 3 · Episode 30

Monday, August 28, 2023 • Duration 52:57

Send us a textWe're closing the yearbook on 2018 with a criminally underappreciated TV series, Life in Pieces. This show contained a fantastic cast including James Brolin, Dianne Wiest, Colin Hanks, and Betsy Brandt, among others. And if you liked Modern Family, you would be sure to love this too. We break down the cast, a classic episode, and much more.

While fantastic, the series only ran 3 1/2 seasons. Giff, who chose this one, felt it was too short of a run. So we decided to draft our favorite TV series that ended too soon. Who was the lucky one to get first pick, and therefore, Freaks and Geeks? Find out now!
