In this episode of Kate and Isaiah Living Large, we dive into the emotional core of John Candy: I Like Me, the new documentary exploring the life of one of Canada’s most beloved comedic legends. 🇨🇦

Behind the laughter, John Candy carried a deep awareness of his own mortality — a fear that seemed to follow him throughout his life and career. We explore how that knowledge shaped his choices, his humour, and the way he connected with people.

From his larger-than-life characters to his quiet moments off-screen, John seemed to know that time was precious. We talk about how that urgency can both inspire and haunt us — especially for those of us living in bigger bodies, where society often links size to health and fate.

🎙️ In this episode we talk about:

• 
  

  How John Candy’s awareness of mortality influenced his work and lifestyle

  The balance between living joyfully and living carefully
