Caddyshack (EP32) with Jay Onrait
Listen now
Description
In this episode, we achieve total consciousness with the 1980 Harold Ramis sports comedy CADDYSHACK.   We’re joined by special guest Jay Onrait (SC with Jay and Dan) and after Jay discloses the video store racket he ran back in Boyle, Alberta, we begin the case for keeping it on the pedestal with Chevy Chase’s run as America’s top leading man. We get into why the movie’s loose structure works in its favour, we go deep into the combined brilliance of Rodney Dangerfield and Ted Knight, and Jay wonders if this it the movie that finally made golf cool. We then move onto the case for knocking it off the pedestal with Mike taking issue with Bill Murray’s affected performance. We all rag on what’s wrong with Danny’s story, Pops wonders why a movie called “Caddyshack” has so little to do with caddies, and Shane takes perhaps his most controversial stance in the podcast’s history: why the movie’s famous fart sound was no good.
