This week, Ben and Rob get stuck on Groundhog Day (1993), Harold Ramis’s timeless classic starring Bill Murray, Andie MacDowell, and Chris Elliott. What started as a quirky rom-com has become one of the most beloved and philosophically rich films ever made; the blueprint for every time-loop story that followed.

How did Groundhog Day even come to be? Why are time-loop movies so endlessly satisfying? Just how long was Phil Connors actually stuck reliving the same day ten years or a thousand? And underneath all the laughs, is Groundhog Day secretly a deeply spiritual movie about enlightenment, karma, and the human condition?
