Summary

I know we're always saying certain films have been highly requested by our listeners, but no joke - Ferris Bueller's Day Off has absolutely been one of the most requested titles since day one. And it's pretty easy to see why. So many of us have an affinity for John Hughes movies and this is widely regarded as one of his best. In this instance, it doesn't even seem necessary to ask whether or not this one holds up. The better question is probably why.

Topics include: the Fight Club theory, the only other actor seriously considered for the role of Ferris, what changes if you remove Sloane from the film (spoilers: not much), our proven methods for faking an illness, some disagreements over whether or not Ferris gets to take credit for Cameron's transformation, the TV series based on the movie, and much much more!

0:00.0	Hey, do you remember Ferris Bueller's Day Off?
0:07.0	Hello and welcome, Hey Do You Remember, a show where we reminisce about a movie or TV series we grew up with, then take off the rose tinted glasses to see how it holds up.
0:31.5	I'm Chris.
0:32.2	I'm Donna.
0:33.0	And I'm Carlos.

1:00.6	Oh, Tyler and Kendra.
1:02.6	Once again, we were shocked and blown away by your gesture. And I told Tyler that the timing of this whole thing was crazy.
1:09.6	Because we had just been reminiscing after we recorded the Scrooge episode about that original group of listeners.
1:15.8	When we were like several months into this, it was the first indication that these
1:18.9	weren't just going out into oblivion.
1:21.9	And Tyler and Kendra, they were a part of that group.
1:24.2	They were maybe the first set of names we started to recognize from week to
1:27.6	week. And so, yeah, it was like just the last time we did this that I had kind of wondered,
1:32.3	are they still around? Are they still listening? I don't know. And then once I got back into town
1:35.7	after the holidays, there was this card waiting for us. And I was like, shit, no way. Well,
1:40.4	there's the answer. So they are still around and they are still listening.
1:50.8	And we want you both to know how much we have valued all of our interactions over the years and your support of this show.
1:51.2	Yeah.
1:52.0	Thank you.
