Crackpot Cinema: Ep #27 — Whatchoo Talkin’ ’Bout, Rainn Wilson Rainn Wilson guests on Crackpot Cinema to marvel at Gary Coleman living in a train station locker and picking racetrack winners in the 1981 opus, ON THE RIGHT TRACK.

The once-and-forever Dwight Schrute/Bassoon King/Soul Pancake Yogi subjected himself not only to this curious farce about a homeless kid with psychic gambling powers, he also helps us suss out: • Why 1981 is the ultimate year for Cinematic Crackpotica! • The matchless excitement of vintage Fall Preview TV specials! • ALL the words to the Kaptain Kool and the Kongs’ theme song! • Norman F@¢&ing Fell! • How frazzled, fractured Inner Child McBeardo might have prompted one co-host to rate ON THE RIGHT TRACK as a “Gary Coleman” rather than a “Gary Colon.” And — PAY ATTENTION HERE — if you listen all the way through, Rainn makes a very special offer to YOU, our beloved Crackpot Public!
