Description

You may not know his name, but you damn well know his work.  Bennett wrote Dumb and Dumber!  He gave us Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne.  He enriched our lives with lines like "Our pets heads are falling off"! He made me a better father by providing with me with one of the greatest toilet scenes ever filmed so that I can show my children just how hilarious diarrhea can be!  And...he's a mensch.  Bennett was really generous with his time as we talked about meeting Peter Farrelly, starting his writing career, making Dumb and Dumber, and tons of other stuff.  He gives us a great Eddie Murphy story and reveals the genesis of Fraida Felcher!  Enjoy!

Fanacek explores all things film and television. We start with a theme and plunge down the IMDB rabbit hole of acting credits, far out locations, crazy posters, interesting guest stars, and obscure and often absurd taglines. Forget about six degrees of Kevin Bacon. There’s six degrees of everything! Joined by a guest each week, we’ll learn, poke fun, try to teach, and ultimately honor the people who have graced our screens over the years. So, stay tuned for another exciting episode of...Fanacek!
