    Click here for the dvd! Ever wonder how a parody film can leave you in stitches while silently saluting its sources? Buckle up for a comedic flight with Jim Abrahams' mastery of spoof cinema, where we trace the laugh lines from "Hot Shots" to "Airplane!" and beyond. We don't just chuckle over classic scenes; we also honor Jim's personal heroism in his relentless quest to tackle his son's epilepsy. Plus, we peek into the parodic partnership that birthed the gut-busters we can't get enough of, with a side glance at Pat Proft's own trajectory into the comedy cosmos.

    Shift into a lighter gear as we reminisce about the dynamic Sheen and Cryer duo, whose journey from "Hot Shots" to "Two and a Half Men" left a hilarious imprint on our screens. We'll chat about the charm of name changes in Tinseltown, particularly within the Estevez clan, before diving into a laugh-out-loud discussion of "Hot Shots!" trivia. Did Valeria Golino really balance that olive in her belly button without movie magic? Tune in as we invite insider intel on this and other pressing comedic conundrums from the comfort of your earbuds.
