You got Fred Savage, Howie Mandel, Daniel Stern, Margaret Witten, Frank Whaley, Ben Savage, Devin Rattray, Amber Barreto, and a bunch of other people playing little monsters here or there.

NeilHOST
Howie Mandel.
NeilHOST
No.
Melanie VartabedianGUEST
But yeah, absolutely.
Pete LozanoHOST
So now this movie has a bit of a kind of somewhat of a meta quality to it in that it's the story is being related to the boy, the Fred Savage character, by his grandfather, played by Peter Falk.
Pete LozanoHOST
And so he's reading this quote-unquote fictional book in the movie to this kid, right? But it is actually a novel that you can go and pick up at a bookstore today.
Pete LozanoHOST
And I have a little bit of information on the novel, which I think is kind of interesting.
21 MINS LATER
Pete LozanoHOST
This cast, obviously we've been talking about the cast, is so good.
Pete LozanoHOST
We could talk briefly about Peter Falk
Scott YoungbauerHOST
and Fred Savage.
Scott YoungbauerHOST
I was telling you two as we were watching it, am I sitting on Columbo?
Kelli WilliamsHOST
But we start with the LA Times.
Kelli WilliamsHOST
And also, this reminds me of Fred Savage a little bit, 'cause he started really young doing really shitty things and not getting in trouble for them.
Kelli WilliamsHOST
So he got away with a lot.
Troy McEadyHOST
Mm.
Kelli WilliamsHOST
So in 1996, at age nine, Shia LaBeouf grew up in LA's Echo Park and was arrested on suspicion of stealing a pair of Nike shoes, he revealed in a 2015 essay, and he was released after six hours.
Kelli WilliamsHOST
And then in 1998, he was arrested at 11 for stealing a Game Boy from a Kmart, a fact that the actor revealed in the same 2015 essay, and once again, he was released after a few hours, and then two years later, he got his first role on Even Stevens, his major breakout role, I guess you'd say.
Troy McEadyHOST
Can I just say how much I love that, like, now any bad little boy, we always [laughs] use Fred Savage as the example.
Kelli WilliamsHOST
That episode really imprinted on me.
Bill MurphyHOST
Yeah, he's a Yale graduate.
Bill MurphyHOST
um um he's also god i'm sorry i'm losing my train of thought right now he's on you're good and eric is trying to get in corey's brother eric is trying to get into gail and he goes hey can you help me out and then he goes yeah, you know, you need, because I saw this picture of this hot girl on a raft wearing a Yale sweatshirt.
Bill MurphyHOST
And priorities, folks.
Bill MurphyHOST
And then there's where Eric takes Feeney to the opera and he's thinking that, oh, I just want to get into Yale.
Bill MurphyHOST
Class dismissed.
Bill MurphyHOST
And he really shows about, he really, and another instance, he had the serious family relationship in my last example, but another episode where he has that like paternal figure is in college.
Bill MurphyHOST
And another episode I've talked about in which in which they have a professor who is actually played by Ben Savage's brother, Fred Savage.
JTHOST

Andrew MorganHOST
Not an advert.
Andrew MorganHOST
Our friend Fred Savage, he has the timepiece grading specialists, TGS, not the girly show for 30 Rock fans.
Andrew MorganHOST

Andrew MorganHOST
They will take your watch.
RoulaHOST
... maybe under 10 is, is, go over, it goes over their head, but it's because it's the, from the eyes of a child.
RoulaHOST
The story is being read to Fred Savage, who's a kid-
Special KHOST
Yeah
RoulaHOST
... homesick from school.
EricHOST
Yeah, kinda
RoulaHOST
... is had they not packaged it the way they packaged it, I would not have been locked into Princess Bride.
RoulaHOST
But they packaged it through the eyes of Fred Savage, who is homesick, and his grandfather comes over to read him this story, and he goes, "Ugh, Grandpa, I don't wanna hear this boring story." And to us as kids, it would be a boring story about, ah, right, a sword fight, and rocks you gotta climb-
Special KHOST
A sword fight? It's fun
