License to Drive (1988) – RBVHS Ep. 3
Coby’s pick takes us back to 1988 for a neon-soaked VHS favorite full of DMV meltdowns, Cadillac chaos, and the unstoppable force of the Two Coreys. We start with Memory Lane stories about fantasizing over Archies, Mercedes Lane, and the day we could finally ditch the bus, then roll through the film scene by scene — from Les’ nightmare test and Feldman’s wild one-liners to the all-night joyride and the unforgettable reverse hospital run.
In Behind the Scenes, we dig into casting “what ifs” like Ben Affleck auditioning for Les, Heather Graham’s early breakout, and the nine Cadillacs wrecked in production. We share our Favorite Picks, with Cam backing Corey Haim’s frantic Les and Coby going with Richard Masur’s hilarious dad. In How It Formed Us, we talk about how this movie cranked up the obsession with getting a license and why it felt rebellious even when we were still walking everywhere.
Plus: a Top 5 list of movies where your parents would absolutely kill you if they knew, and a Movie Memorabilia Inferno surprise.
Watch or listen to the full episode to see what Late Fee this late-80s joyride earned and if it stays checked out forever.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
