Mike White March rolls on, dragging Chris Stachiw deeper into the depths of Robin Williams' cinematic misfires! This time, RV (2006) sputters into the spotlight—a Barry Sonnenfeld-directed road trip comedy that desperately wants to be National Lampoon’s Vacation but barely makes it out of the driveway. Williams stars as a workaholic dad who drags his reluctant family on an RV adventure, only to find himself locked in a battle against sewage mishaps, corporate deadlines, and the ever-affable Jeff Daniels. Screenwriter Richard Hatem joins Mike and Chris to break down the film’s chaotic energy, mismatched humor, and whether RV deserves to be parked in the junkyard of bad Robin Williams flicks. Buckle up—it’s going to be a bumpy ride!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kulturecast--2883470/support.

Jack
Mike White March returns, bringing another round of cinematic torment to Kulturecast host Chris Stachiw! This year, Mike has chosen a particularly perplexing path: a deep dive into the lesser films of Robin Williams. First up is Jack (1996), Francis Ford Coppola’s baffling blend of schmaltz and existential horror. Williams stars as a 10-year-old boy trapped in the body of a 40-year-old man, desperately trying to navigate schoolyard politics while grappling with the inevitability of his rapidly approaching mortality. Is it a heartwarming coming-of-age tale or a nightmare disguised as family-friendly whimsy? Tune in as Chris and Mike attempt to make sense of this oddity, one awkward life lesson at a time.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kulturecast--2883470/support.
