    Jun 6 2025
    Alright folks, buckle up! We are genuinely SO excited for today's episode because we're talking about what might just be one of the absolute best films we'll ever cover on this show. We're diving into Clive Barker's chilling urban legend masterpiece – Candyman. You know the one: grad students poking the hornet's nest of folklore, getting in terrifyingly deep. And that performance? The late, great Tony Todd is iconic, defining a generation of horror. If you haven't seen Candyman yet... seriously, you gotta fix that.

    BONUS: Peggy Sue Got Married (feat. Caitlin Kinnunen & Isabelle Mccalla) | Carrey'd Away
    Jun 2 2025
    Broadway's "The Prom" stars Caitlin Kinnunen and Isabelle Mccalla join us to unravel the chameleon-like career of Jim Carrey, sharing laughs as we reminisce on his metamorphosis from rubber-faced comedian to a thespian of depth. Today we're talking about the forgotten Coppola romantic comedy called "Peggy Sue Got Married," where Jim Carrey plays the best friend of a very campy Nicolas Cage. Our stroll down memory lane brings us face to face with the rhino scene that defined "Ace Ventura" and the sublime moments of "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," interspersed with personal stories that paint a fuller picture of Carrey's unique trajectory. It's an episode punctuated with chuckles and reflections, much like the roles that have shaped Carrey’s legacy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
