Charles "Big Chuck" Schodowski (born June 28, 1934) and "Lil' John" Rinaldi (born January 20, 1946) – together commonly known as Big Chuck and Lil' John – are a duo of entertainers who served as late-night horror hosts of The Big Chuck and Lil' John Show on television station WJW in Cleveland, Ohio from 1979 to 2007.

The show began at 11:30 pm every Friday night and had a fun twist at the opening with a crazy laugh and a twist on good and bad things in life with every skit.

On December 2006, Schodowski announced he would retire in June 2007. As part of his farewell, WJW broadcast the hour-long retrospective Big Chuck and Lil' John: The End of an Era. This also marked the end of The Big Chuck and Lil' John Show, with the last regular episode airing the afternoon of June 16, 2007 and again in the early morning of June 17.

In October 2008, Schodowski released his autobiography, "Big Chuck! - My Favorite Stories from 47 Years on Cleveland TV", co-written by The Plain Dealer media writer Tom Feran. The book debuted at the 2008 Ghoulardifest convention.
