Episode Details

It’s time to head back to 1985 and one of the most gloriously ridiculous murder mysteries ever made: Clue! Brad, Giff, and special guest Pete revisit the cult comedy that has only grown more beloved over the years — and Pete may be its biggest fan.

We talk about our memories of first seeing Clue, why the movie didn’t exactly set the box office on fire in 1985, and how it eventually found its audience. We also dig into the movie’s stacked cast, including Tim Curry, Madeline Kahn, Eileen Brennan, Christopher Lloyd, Michael McKean, Martin Mull, Leslie Ann Warren, and Colleen Camp.

And because Tim Curry's death brought us back to the movie in the first place, we spend the second half of the episode remembering some of the other celebrities we've lost in 2026. We hold our own draft of favorite celebrities who died this year, with picks including Dolly Parton, James Van Der Beek, James Burrows, and Chuck Norris.
