    Ep. 148 - Rodney Dangerfield
    Jan 19 2026
    On October 5, 2004, Rodney Dangerfield — the legendary comedian whose trademark line “I don’t get no respect” became one of the most iconic catchphrases in entertainment history — passed away at the age of 82. Rising from years of struggle in comedy clubs and working odd jobs, Dangerfield broke through with a relentless, self-deprecating style that reshaped stand-up comedy and influenced generations of comics. He became a household name through classic films like Caddyshack, Back to School, and Easy Money, while also earning acclaim for dramatic performances that revealed unexpected depth beyond his comedic persona. With razor-sharp timing, fearless honesty, and an everyman relatability, Dangerfield turned insecurity into art and failure into punchlines. By the time of his passing, he was revered not just as a comedian, but as a pioneer who transformed personal frustration into universal laughter and forever changed the language of comedy.

    Jan 12 2026
    On May 18, 2017, Chris Cornell — the iconic singer, songwriter, and one of the most powerful voices in rock history — passed away at the age of 52. Rising to prominence as the frontman of Soundgarden, Cornell helped define the Seattle grunge movement of the late 1980s and 1990s with his soaring vocal range and emotionally raw songwriting. He later expanded his legacy with Audioslave and Temple of the Dog, while also building a deeply personal solo career that showcased his versatility across rock, acoustic, and orchestral styles. Songs like “Black Hole Sun,” “Fell on Black Days,” and “Like a Stone” cemented his reputation as both a fearless artist and a poetic storyteller. By the time of his passing, Cornell was revered not just as a rock star, but as a generational voice whose music gave shape to pain, beauty, and vulnerability for millions around the world.
