The VHS Club Reviews Groundhog Day (1993) - Ep 80

In this super special episode of The VHS Club Podcast, we’re joined by Mike Potter, founder of the Macstock Conference and a resident of Woodstock, IL—the charming town where Groundhog Day was filmed! Together, we’ll relive the magic of this 1993 classic directed by Harold Ramis and starring Bill Murray as the cynical weatherman Phil Connors, who finds himself stuck reliving the same day over and over again. We’ll dive into the film’s clever humor, heartfelt moments, and its lasting impact on pop culture. Mike will share insider stories and unique perspectives about Woodstock, IL, the town that became Punxsutawney on the big screen. From the iconic “I Got You Babe” wake-up call to the life lessons Phil learns along the way, we’ll explore why Groundhog Day remains one of the greatest comedies of all time. Don’t miss this nostalgic trip into one of the most celebrated films of the 90s, featuring a behind-the-scenes look from someone who calls the filming location home.
