Join us as we dive into the ultimate ’80s feel-good comedy, The Secret of My Success! Directed by Herbert Ross and starring Michael J. Fox at the height of his powers, this film perfectly captures the charm, ambition, and outrageous humour of the era.

Follow the story of Brantley Foster (Fox), a small-town guy with big dreams who moves to New York City to climb the corporate ladder. But when life doesn’t go as planned, Brantley finds himself juggling two identities—a lowly mailroom clerk by day and a rising executive by… well, also day. From hilarious mix-ups to heartfelt moments, this movie blends comedy, romance, and a killer soundtrack, including the classic hit “The Secret of My Success” by Night Ranger.

We’ll revisit the plot, explore what made this movie such a staple of the 1980s, and discuss its legacy as one of Michael J. Fox’s most underrated roles. If you love ambitious underdogs, outrageous ’80s fashion, and a good laugh, this is the episode for you!
