This 80’s flick sequel brings a blend of family chaos, outrageous escapades, and a sprinkle of British humor. Get ready to tag along with the Griswolds as they embark on a madcap European adventure, where every tourist spot becomes a hilarious misadventure just waiting to happen. So, grab your funky beret, power up your super-cool electronic language translator, and don’t forget to be a pig as Tim Williams and guest co-hosts, Chris Adams from "Retro Life 4 You" Podcast & Chad Sheppard, discuss “National Lampoon’s European Vacation” from 1985 on this episode of the 80s Flick Flashback.

Here are some additional behind-the-scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode:

After the completion of filming, Eric Idle and Chevy Chase developed a friendship. They even collaborated on a screenplay for a sequel titled National Lampoon's Australian Vacation, but unfortunately, the project was abandoned due to the difficulty of coming up with new ideas beyond a few shark-related gags.
Along with Caddyshack II (1988) and Nothing But Trouble (1991) this is one of few films Chevy Chase has said he regrets starring in and thus his least favorite Vacation movie.
