S11 Ep8: Robert Carradine Dies at 71

Robert Carradine — best known as Lewis Skolnick in Revenge of the Nerds and as Sam McGuire on Lizzie McGuire — has died at 71. His family confirmed he died by suicide after a long battle with bipolar disorder, hoping that sharing his struggle might help reduce the stigma around mental health. This week on Radio Labyrinth, we reflect on Carradine’s legacy, the iconic Carradine acting family, and what his loss means to a generation that grew up quoting Nerds and watching Disney Channel after school.
