Episode 274 - Club Paradise
Friday, 24 April, 2026
In this episode of the show we are closing our bumpy journey through Robin Williams comedies of the 1980s with one of those movies that truly epitomizes the tagline of our podcast, the 1986 Harold Ramis-directed Club Paradise. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about the many reasons why this movie isn't talked about at all, how it was supposed to be a vehicle for Bill Murray into which Robin Williams was retro-fitted and how it all plays out much like Caddyshack but without the focus or vibes. We also talk about how this movie is pulled in different directions by its many substories, how Peter O'Toole and Robin Williams did not know how to survive in a crowd of SCTV stars and whether it is a good idea or not to stack so many hairy comedians in one film and ask them all to act without shirts on.
