Speaker 1 (00:00):
The best bits of the week with Morgan. It's listener
Q and daytime.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
We're Morgan in a show member answer almost all your questions.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
We've got listener questions and Mike d answers, and I'll
answer one or two perfect.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
I always need help with questions.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Yes, we got some shout outs to start. I love
hearing Mike's laugh during the show. That's from Amy, not
to be confused with our own Amy. Different Amy. I
was like, oh thanks, Amy, love it when it's Mike
D's week. This is from Max in Massachusetts. And I
appreciate Mike is the emo guy on the show. We
should have an Emo segment.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Oh yeah, I was like emo when it wasn't cool.
I feel like a lot of the people who now
are like, oh, emo music was so good. They were
making fun of me in high school I was. I
don't remember it being cool like I was. I remember
getting made fun of for wearing all black and people
making fun of the bands I listened to you, And
then when they got a little bit more popular, it
(00:57):
became a little bit more of the norm. Yeah, but
now I feel like some people claim an EMO who
were making fun of me in high school now that
it's cool again.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Yeah, that's mean. I was for sure a poser at
one point, but I did not make fun of people
for me Nemo, but I was a poser. I had
a little Emo era, but it lasted I think maybe
two weeks. Mostly. If you listen to Part one, you
heard I loved Lista frank, so they kind of directly
canceled each other out. But yeah, I do think we
need an EMO segment. It'd be fun, be a very
(01:26):
depressing segment maybe in part two.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Songs that make me the saddest we used to do.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
In personal good News. So it's like always to tell.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Me something Sun, tell me something Emo.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yes, where do you guys fall? Dune or Doomsday? On
December eighteenth.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
I'm going Doom all one hundred percent. I could not
see Dune three and be fine.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Yeah, in the same way.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Like Dune, Like I know it's great. People who love
it really love it, but I just haven't been able
to get into the story. And I kind of feel
like I watched those movies and I need to be
taking notes.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Yeah, it's it's so much more on the like cinematography side,
which I love, visually looks great. Yeah, like I love
watching it.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Like watching it in imax is inexperience.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Yeah, but I could go my whole life with not
knowing what happens and I would be fine.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Yeah, and they're very long, a lot of characters, a
lot to keep up with. It's basically people fighting over
sand in power.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Yeah, and the sand creatures or or whatever.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
I mean, the snail, like that's worm, sandworm.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Sand worm. That's about all I know. Honestly, I've watched
both movies and all I know is there's sand, Zendiad,
Timothy Shallome and worms.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yeah. There's a good family and a bad family, and
the bad family wants to fight the good family.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Yes, and one of those families has really pretty ice.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Yeah that's about all. Their eyes turned blue, they breathe
from the sand. Yeah, all those things.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
You have more details than I do, but that's like
all six of my head. So definitely Doomsday. I'm excited.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
I'm really excited I get.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
To finally like and I had mentioned that on the shows.
I was excited about an endgame coming back because I
do get experience with people going to see in game
again since I didn't get to be in theaters for that.
But Doomsday will be my first one where I feel
like it's going to be comparable to in game.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Yeah, I got excited again at the thought like they
haven't put the trailer out at least as of now
as we're recording this, but they showed it at CinemaCon
and just people describe what was happening, and then hearing
like all the characters that are coming back. I got
excited just knowing that the people from the original Avengers
movies are still going to be a part of this.
It just feels like like how like how are we
(03:43):
how are we getting this? Like it just feels unreal.
I know.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
I watched somebody break down a schedule of all the
things you should watch to prepare. I was like, well,
good thing, I've been keeping up with a lot of it,
because I would not be watching all of that. I
would just be like, it is what it is.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
I mean I always I always do a big Avengers
rewatch before a new Avengers movie. It's not that hard
to do. It's a few out. I mean each one's
like probably two and a half to three hours on
the last ones like three fifteen.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Okay, so which ones are you watched gonna watch to prepare?
For this one.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
I'm only gonna watch the Avengers ones just because I
feel like it's a part of that. All the other
things i'm good with, I've rewatched everything enough, but I
just feel like I like to be in that state
of mind of like, here's how they all kind of
lead up to each other, and then I like to
compare them all.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Yeah, that's a good point. I like that strategy a
lot better than the other guys. It was like six
months out you had to start life.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, that's a lot.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
I was like, No, nobody needs to watch all of this.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
I did rewatching Chi recently because I don't think i'd
seen that since I saw it in theaters. I love
that one, and I feel like he's gonna be a
part of Doomsday in a pretty big way. So I
was like, that's the one. Like, I kind of don't
remember exactly what happened in that one.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
I've watched that one a few well, a lot of
the Marvel movies are like my emotional support background noise.
Those are what I put on when I'm doing stuff
and I just want something on TV. And how did
you pronounce it? Shank I pronounced shang Chi, but I don't.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Say I say shang Chi, but it could be shang Chi.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
I don't know, so I'm always wrong when it comes
to pronunciation. And that was I actually really liked that
one of the new ones. I enjoyed it, probably because
I liked all the creatures.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Yeah, you should have got a sequel.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I know he was good and I loved him like
I thought he was a really good actor. So I
do hope he is a big way. But I'm excited.
I'm just excited to I'm fully like full Marvel fan.
I've watched everything, I have consumed everything that somebody can
consume in Marvel, and now I finally get.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
To be a part of Did you ever watch the
original X Men movies? They're not a part of the MCU,
but now technically are going to be.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yes. Yeah, I went back and watched them after they
made an appearance in the Wanda movie.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Oh yeah, Wanda Visions.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
So I had watched it before. Somebody had said you should,
and I was like, well, I'll go back and watch them.
I had seen like some of the old Fantastic Four
and some of the like bigger X Men movie, but
I've never really watched them in their full capacity. So
I watched them all and they were good. I liked them,
but I mean they're not my favorite, if I'm being honest.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
I think that's why I'm excited now because those were, like,
that's what really got me in the superhero movies as
a kid like that, and Spider Man in the two
thousands were like the superhero movies, and then Cyclops was
one of my favorite superheroes that we haven't really seen
a whole lot, and now I feel like he's really undervalued.
So I can't wait to see James Mars didn't come back.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Yeah, that's gonna be crazy. And they're involving venom, I believe,
because that's a lot on a lot of people's watch lists,
which I'm like, how are you guys going to connect
all of these pieces because there's a lot of pieces now.
It's kind of like, and I guess that's the whole
purpose of like a multi universe thing is where they're
all just gonna But the only thing I don't hope
(06:52):
is I hope it has I hope it has a
lot of cohesion instead of it just being like constant
cameos of different variations, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Yeah, I feel like, well, from what I know with
the comics, they kind of all break into teams by
the time they get to Secret Wars, which is what
they're building into, so they kind of have like your
X Men team going you have these other teams that
feel like are a part of their own storyline. So
hopefully that's kind of how the story I mean, kind
of like it was an end game, you have like
these individual things going on back and forth instead of
(07:22):
just like here's Cyclops for two minutes and then he
goes away again, which I think we kind of goten
did Pull and Wolverine, where we just kind of cameo.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
Fest exactly, And that's what I don't want to happen.
But I'm also because I want a Ventures endgame moment,
so that's fine. Yeah, I'm probably asking for a lot.
Speaking of Leah and Pennsylvania, wanted to know which Marvel
movie we're both so pumped for this year. I mean
Doomsday for.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Sure, minus Spider Man, Like I can't wait for Spider Man.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
When does that one come out in July? And that's
the Is that the fourth installment for him?
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Fourth Tom Holland movie.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Yeah, he's got more than all the rest of the Spider.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Yeah, nobody ever got a four. No, Toby Maguire was
supposed to get a four. It never happened.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Yeah, so they must really loved Tumble.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
And then I feel like it's going to connect between
the current season of Daredevil Born again.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Have you been watching Daredeblin?
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Yeah, it's great, so good, right, because the Punisher is
going to be in it. They haven't said fully, but
I feel like Daredevil is going to be in it. Yeah,
so because it's going very street level crime New York City,
and I just think having that element in Spider Man
again is going to be good. Not in space it anymore.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Aren't they having a Punisher movie too?
Speaker 1 (08:34):
This year? It is like a special, so it's like
a one hour Punisher special that kind of leads into
Spider Man, so probably explains why he's going to be
in it.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Okay, we got a lot happening this year.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, good stuff, a lot of good stuff.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
So Spider Man's your first Doomsday.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
That would be my second.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Yeah, all right, that's fair. I will say the thing
that rivals Doomsday for me is Mandalorian and Grogu, which
I'm very excited to.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Yeah, I'm getting a little bit more excited for that now,
are you. Yeah, just because I started watching the mall
animated show on Disney Plus okay, and I'm like kind
of getting back into Star Wars a little bit, so.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
You're feeling it. Yeah, it comes down a few weeks's soon.
So those are my two. Like that, I'm heavy hitters
that in Devil War's producto.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Oh yeah, is a bringer in there. We watched the
first one. I was like, oh, yeah, that is good
to be good.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
It's so always gonna be so better because that was
such a good show. So those are my three, like
big ones.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
I feel like when it comes to those legacy sequels,
Disney does a pretty good job. Like Freak Your Friday
I thought was good.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Yeah, I agree, they've done well. At least they don't
like completely go a different direction. They keep with whatever
the theme was of the original movie.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
So far, and at least they're nervous like they're bringing
all the originals back, so it's not like they're recasting people.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Do you have That's when it gets icy.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Two g everybody's back, yes except that her boyfriend in
the movie, Yeah, which.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
I the end of the movie. This isn't a spoiler
because it came out so many years ago now twenty
years ago. But they aren't together at the end of
the day.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Like why would he Like if you shouldn't if you
were making a movie about your life, you wouldn't include
somebody you twenty years ago in the movie.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Like, yeah, like he should not be in it. Everybody
knows that they don't end up together based on the
first movie.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
It would make less sense if he wasn't it.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Yeah, exactly, But he is a big actor, so maybe
that's why everybody was mad and everybody loves him. But
I don't know. All right, I have one more movie
question before we take a quick break. Favorite movie from
each decade starting in the seventies that's from casey.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Seventies would be Star Wars and New Hope. Eighties would.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
I love how you just have these on deck too.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
I tell I'm gonna go with La Bomba, which was
probably the movie from the eighties I've seen the most. Nineties.
I'm going to go a goofy movie, two thousand's I'm
going to go two thousand and seven, No Country for
Old Men. We're going all the way till now. Yeah, now,
twenty tens. Twenty tens is tough because of some really
(11:04):
good stuff in twenty.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Nineteen great history knowledge movies as well.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I'm gonna go with Avengers Infinity War from the twenty
tens and then twenty twenties so far I will go.
There's been some good stuff. I'm gonna go Godzilla minus one.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Okay, there's two notable ones that you left out in
my brain.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Yeah it's Hard Twister.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Yeah, nineties, that's one of your favorite movies.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
That's probably number two in my favorite nineties movies, just
because I feel like, even though I've seen it more
than I've seen a Goofy movie, like a Goofy movie
is more a part of my being.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Okay, all right, and then Project hell Mary for.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Current Yeah, I still think I like Godzilla minus one
more than Project Hill Mary, but I mean Project Hill Mary.
Both of those movies are like in my top at
least twenty four of all time.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
Oh okay, yeah, okay, next time you come on in
part one, I think we need to do your top
like of all time movies.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Okay, maybe that's twenty.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Five because you can do that for your podcast, but
like we could do like a top ten, So prepare
for that, because I know I never for the movie
questions and you're like just pulling from the dome.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
So yeah, when it comes to years, like I'm pretty
good at like the decades I can get, I try
to get really good on like what years like for
a lot of the major movies. I've kind of memorized
those at this point, so I that's like kind of
what I went uprighted, especially when it comes to like
Oscar season, like I remember all those best pictures of
what it was up against. I think that's what I
(12:39):
would like if I could really like sit down and
study something. I would like to know every best picture
nominated in what year.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
That's wild, though, I mean, that's that's some crazy history knowledge.
I love it. Okay, we're gonna take a quick break.
We'll be right back with some more questions. Sophie would
like to know where did Mike d get married.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
I got married in Texas, where my wife's family lives.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Yeah. Yeah, it's really pretty.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Yeah, that was a cool spot. I think about the cactus.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
We never saw that venue before all blind. Yeah. I
think the thing with us is the time we got
married was like right outside of the pandemic, like the
first time you could really go out, like right when
the vaccine came out, and there was kind of that
window before that new strand so a lot of the
things we were doing were like contact was like it
(13:35):
was still like not doing anything in person. It was
also we were playing a wedding in Texas while we
were in Tennessee, so it's kind of just like, let's
just find stuff that works. We also weren't I think
I love that time because we were so less focused
on all the details. We just wanted to be able
to have fun that it kind of took away all
(13:56):
the pressures of like everything being perfect. So we were like,
here's this venue, we can get it all right, we're good.
We get people that we know to like help us
with stuff, and like, yeah, it's fine.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Yeah I love that. And your wife is super chill,
so I imagine she was just letting it all happen.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Yeah, we were just trying to figure it out, and
like even being able to happen was like a big
thing of like I don't know, or is it gonna
get shut down? Is everybody gonna get sick? What's gonna happen?
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Just let it be what it's gonna be.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
So I think it would look a lot different if
we got married now. Yeah, it'd probably feel a lot
more pressure, like what you're dealing.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
With different times, for sure. Yeah. There was a lot
of people who have messaged me and been like, I
got married during the pandemic, and honestly it really worked
out for me.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Yeah. I think I kind of liked the fact that,
like around the time we got married, there was a
very low pressure for all the little things.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
When you didn't feel pressure to invite a bunch of
people because you be around a bunch of people.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
I mean, yeah, that influenced a lot. I think that
would be my only regret is that I didn't invite
a whole lot of my family because there were some
people that like I'm not the super closest with, but like,
if I got married now, probably would have invited them.
But there was only so many people that we could invite,
(15:12):
and then once we kind of both filled up, like
our side, im like I just can't The problem my
family is like if I invite one person, there's like
sixteen people attached to that one person that you can't
invite just this one person. It's like their whole family. Yeah,
so that made it hard.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Yeah, well, and that makes sense why you had to Yeah,
there's some exclusion or you would have had a five
hundred person money.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Yeah. I mean that's the thing with my family, Like
in my because I have my mom's side, I have
my dad's side, but then I have like a lot
of family that's not really family, like cousins that I
grew up with that aren't really my cousins, but like
my dad and their dad are cousins, but I grew
up with them being my cousins. So like there's these
other little pockets of family that add up to like
another ten fifteen people, all the.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Things you would have had basically the entire.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
City that you grew up in exactly.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Yeah, not adds up, not amount of people between alcohol
and food, Like you'd be over the limit of just
having a normal wedding, So that would be crazy. Do
you think the show will be around five years from now?
That's from Natalie and Michigan.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
I will say yes. I think we are constantly having
to adapt. It's hard to say that anything will be
around in five years with the way technology just changes
so often. But I feel like the hard thing about
being in radio and podcasting is people have been saying
like it's gonna go forever, Like people have been saying
(16:33):
that since I got into radio, that it's been on
the verge of going away, and it hasn't. I think
something I struggle with right now is it feels like
everything for my childhood is like going away, or it's
like people have been saying forever, like movie theaters are
going away, or like the whole way of like traditional meat.
Everything just feels like it's becoming less impactful. So I
(16:55):
think that's something that every industry struggles with.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Yeah, one, just as we have a lot more technology
coming to fruition. It you either adapt and evolve or
you don't. And there's a lot of things that don't
adapt evolved and sometimes they can't. Just depends on what
everything gets faced with when the time comes to that evolution,
for sure. So I like it. Hot takes from my
(17:19):
any fun trips planned this year Alyssa in Illinois.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
We were just planning our summer trip, which we had
a couple of different options. We wanted to go to Canada,
Oh Love, and we were going to go to bamp
because we've been wanting to go for a long time.
And then we looked at like how long travel is?
It is a it is a task to get the
vamp is it?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
We want to go to Bam.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
We tried different places in Canada, Like we were going
to go to Montreal. What's the other place in Canada?
Not Urano over by like Seattle. Hm, I me like
thatsh Why am I forgetting it? Now?
Speaker 3 (17:57):
Well, there's Glacier Mountain National Park which is right there.
That's the there's like a trek there.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Vancouver, Vancouver, That's what it is. Yeah, we were gonna
go to Vancouver because we wanted to kind of like
we really liked a few years ago when we went
to Lake Tahoe And the only problem with that is
we didn't fully love where we stayed, but we like
the nature aspect of like being able to go on hikes,
go out to a lake. We thought maybe going to
(18:23):
Canada we could get those same vibes and try like
a different place. But it's it takes a long time
to get to Canada, does it?
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Like what is the flight to get to.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
The total like travel daytime and what we were looking
at was like twelve hours. That's for that to go
to Canada. I'd rather go like across the pond and
go somewhere else like overseas.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Can you not go to like Calgary, that's a main
city in Canada, that's by it.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
I just took forever to get there and it was
more expensive. So we decided, you know what, let's just
let's just play the hits. So we're gonna go to
New York again. We're gonna do like the longest amount
of time we ever spent in New York because we
always feel like we never get enough time there. And
my wife has also gotten me into Broadway, so we're
trying to pick what Broadway shows we want to go to.
We love going to baseball games. I love going to
(19:15):
collectible shops. It's also like we have to consider going
to a place where we can find stuff that we
can both eat, and it's so easy in New York City.
There's stuff everywhere, and it's not not only is it
like ve geting gluten free, but it's like the best
of the best.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Yeah. New York has just all the options. He there's
all kinds of bake shops and different options of every
single food that you could want.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
My wife has like a gluten free bakery that she
loves there. That's like you can't even tell, which sometimes
I can tell with gluten free bread, I'm like, ah,
that tastes gluten free.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Yeah, but then some man they found some great ways
to make things good free. So it's impressive.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
But right now, the runner, I'd say in the first
position of Broadway plays, want to go to Harry Potter
Kershchow if.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
You get to see Cushing it, Tom felt it.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Yes, he is going to be there when we were there.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Seriously, I will die. That would be so cool.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
That is what That is probably our number one pick.
If we can get tickets.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
You'll have to let me know how it is, because.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
I've heard like the special effects and all, like the
set design is really cool.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Yeah, and he renewed for another several months because he
was loving it so much. I mean, he was out
there every day, like signing things. I don't know if
he's still doing that now you've really exhausted doing it.
But for a long time, all that was in my
feed was like him going out after the show and
signing and meeting people.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Yeah, that would be so cool.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
You have to go to that one.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
So that's what we want. Yeah, that's what we want
to do. Just go see some plays, watching baseball games,
walk around. I just love walking around, like just being
able to walk around. You get some coffee, and then
you just kind of like, what do we want to
go do or do whatever?
Speaker 3 (20:54):
That's so fun? Okay, exciting And last but not least,
if you could meet one actor dead or who, would
it be.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Ooh, dead or alive? I'm going to go dead. I'm
going to go Chris Farley just because as a kid
probably made me laugh the hardest and was gone way
too soon and it would just be wild to be
able to meet him. And he's just hilarious. You know,
he's going through a lot of struggling a lot. I
(21:22):
just feel like if I could bring somebody back from
the dead to like start in a movie again, it
would be Chris Farley.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
That's a really solid one. Anybody alive that compares to
that for you?
Speaker 1 (21:33):
I was thinking of this. I won't say who, but
there's a possibility we could interview somebody on the Bobby
cast that I never really geek out towards anybody, And
then I saw this person on a list and I
was like, I feel like I would act differently around
them really where they're associated with one of my favorite
franchises of all time, and I'm like, I wouldn't even
(21:56):
put this person as one of my favorite actors, but
I think because of his association with the things that
I love, it was at first time I saw somebody,
I'm like, man, I might act a fool.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
You're like, my nerd is totally gonna come out here.
That's cool. Well, that's exciting.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
But I think I mean obviously like the big ones
like Leo or like a Jennifer Lawrence, some of the
people who I've been watching for like a really long
time and I love all their movies, or even like
Robert Pattinson. I feel like those type of people who
don't really feel real, and they're also like not on
social media a whole lot where I don't even feel
like I know it much about them, Yeah, because they's
(22:30):
still like that mystique level to them. I feel like
those are the only people that I would be like
starstruck by.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Yeah, that's a fair point, because the social media aspect
definitely makes you feel closer to the ones that have it.
You feel like you know stuff about their life and
the ones who don't you're like, I don't know you
see them for the first time, it's like a unicorn.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Because even like The Rock, one of the most famous people,
I don't feel like I would be that starstruck by
him just because I see him online so much. Yeah,
and I kind of like know what kind of person
he is just from like those encounters and like being
able to see so much of his life that it
would be cool, But it wouldn't be like, Wow, I
met the it wouldn't be like this crazy thing.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
Yeah, that's a fair point. I've never thought about that,
but it is totally true. And now that you say that,
it's like, I definitely think about the people who don't
have social media, Like Sandra Bullock didn't have social media forever.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
She has millions of followers now, yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
And now she's like on because I'm sure they get
pressured into getting an account to promote their stuff at
this day and age, and she didn't. And she has
a new movie that's coming.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Out, Practical Magic too, with her and Nicole Kidman.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Yeah, so I think it had to do with that.
But she wasn't on Instagram forever. She was one of
those where I was like, I don't know much about her.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
I mean, yeah, that was the thing with movie stars.
You wouldn't see them unless they were going to like
an award show. You'd have to pay money to go
see them. And then now it's like, oh, you got
to have a social media following to even get cast
in a movie, and then you got to do all
these videos where you're promoting yourself, and then people just
see so much of you. I do think that has
a little bit to do with why some movies flop.
And if you see people online so much and you
(24:02):
just get your kind of accustomed to seeing that on
your feed, that's where you go to see that person.
I feel like sometimes it's like, why am I going
to go pay to see them in theater something I'm
not that excited about. I get them all the time
for free.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
That's a good point, and it's like a lot of
people form opinions over the person rather than just wanting
to go see a cool new movie and a genre
that you like, Like, I feel like one of those
effects is Sidney Sweeney. She's all over social media. Everybody
has a lot of opinions about her because of a
lot of things that she's been involved with and I'm
sure that has some impact. She's still getting starred in things,
(24:36):
but it influences how people perceive them.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
Yeah, it's like she's super famous, but she could still
put out a movie and at bomb like Christy didn't
do that well at the box office. And I feel
like it's not just having a lot of followers or
having star power, it's having that convert to like do
people still want to pay money to see you too?
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Yep? And it's all about perception. Yeah, of how and
she could do none of those things, she'd be the
nicest person ever, but because of a perceived digital imprint
on her, that's what people think. And before that never
used to be thing. They were just movie starts.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Yeah, you never saw me, didn't know what they're doing.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
That's a good point. It's crazy making me think you
see my brain. Well, Mike, thanks for being here and
hanging out with me, and make sure you tell people
where they can hear you find you.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
It's not.

The best bits of the week with Morgan. It's listener
Q and daytime.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
We're Morgan in a show member answer almost all your questions.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
We've got listener questions and Mike d answers, and I'll
answer one or two perfect.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
I always need help with questions.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Yes, we got some shout outs to start. I love
hearing Mike's laugh during the show. That's from Amy, not
to be confused with our own Amy. Different Amy. I
was like, oh thanks, Amy, love it when it's Mike
D's week. This is from Max in Massachusetts. And I
appreciate Mike is the emo guy on the show. We
should have an Emo segment.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Oh yeah, I was like emo when it wasn't cool.
I feel like a lot of the people who now
are like, oh, emo music was so good. They were
making fun of me in high school I was. I
don't remember it being cool like I was. I remember
getting made fun of for wearing all black and people
making fun of the bands I listened to you, And
then when they got a little bit more popular, it
(00:57):
became a little bit more of the norm. Yeah, but
now I feel like some people claim an EMO who
were making fun of me in high school now that
it's cool again.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Yeah, that's mean. I was for sure a poser at
one point, but I did not make fun of people
for me Nemo, but I was a poser. I had
a little Emo era, but it lasted I think maybe
two weeks. Mostly. If you listen to Part one, you
heard I loved Lista frank, so they kind of directly
canceled each other out. But yeah, I do think we
need an EMO segment. It'd be fun, be a very
(01:26):
depressing segment maybe in part two.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Songs that make me the saddest we used to do.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
In personal good News. So it's like always to tell.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Me something Sun, tell me something Emo.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yes, where do you guys fall? Dune or Doomsday? On
December eighteenth.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
I'm going Doom all one hundred percent. I could not
see Dune three and be fine.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Yeah, in the same way.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Like Dune, Like I know it's great. People who love
it really love it, but I just haven't been able
to get into the story. And I kind of feel
like I watched those movies and I need to be
taking notes.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Yeah, it's it's so much more on the like cinematography side,
which I love, visually looks great. Yeah, like I love
watching it.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Like watching it in imax is inexperience.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Yeah, but I could go my whole life with not
knowing what happens and I would be fine.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Yeah, and they're very long, a lot of characters, a
lot to keep up with. It's basically people fighting over
sand in power.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Yeah, and the sand creatures or or whatever.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
I mean, the snail, like that's worm, sandworm.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Sand worm. That's about all I know. Honestly, I've watched
both movies and all I know is there's sand, Zendiad,
Timothy Shallome and worms.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yeah. There's a good family and a bad family, and
the bad family wants to fight the good family.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Yes, and one of those families has really pretty ice.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Yeah that's about all. Their eyes turned blue, they breathe
from the sand. Yeah, all those things.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
You have more details than I do, but that's like
all six of my head. So definitely Doomsday. I'm excited.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
I'm really excited I get.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
To finally like and I had mentioned that on the shows.
I was excited about an endgame coming back because I
do get experience with people going to see in game
again since I didn't get to be in theaters for that.
But Doomsday will be my first one where I feel
like it's going to be comparable to in game.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Yeah, I got excited again at the thought like they
haven't put the trailer out at least as of now
as we're recording this, but they showed it at CinemaCon
and just people describe what was happening, and then hearing
like all the characters that are coming back. I got
excited just knowing that the people from the original Avengers
movies are still going to be a part of this.
It just feels like like how like how are we
(03:43):
how are we getting this? Like it just feels unreal.
I know.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
I watched somebody break down a schedule of all the
things you should watch to prepare. I was like, well,
good thing, I've been keeping up with a lot of it,
because I would not be watching all of that. I
would just be like, it is what it is.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
I mean I always I always do a big Avengers
rewatch before a new Avengers movie. It's not that hard
to do. It's a few out. I mean each one's
like probably two and a half to three hours on
the last ones like three fifteen.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Okay, so which ones are you watched gonna watch to prepare?
For this one.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
I'm only gonna watch the Avengers ones just because I
feel like it's a part of that. All the other
things i'm good with, I've rewatched everything enough, but I
just feel like I like to be in that state
of mind of like, here's how they all kind of
lead up to each other, and then I like to
compare them all.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Yeah, that's a good point. I like that strategy a
lot better than the other guys. It was like six
months out you had to start life.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, that's a lot.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
I was like, No, nobody needs to watch all of this.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
I did rewatching Chi recently because I don't think i'd
seen that since I saw it in theaters. I love
that one, and I feel like he's gonna be a
part of Doomsday in a pretty big way. So I
was like, that's the one. Like, I kind of don't
remember exactly what happened in that one.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
I've watched that one a few well, a lot of
the Marvel movies are like my emotional support background noise.
Those are what I put on when I'm doing stuff
and I just want something on TV. And how did
you pronounce it? Shank I pronounced shang Chi, but I don't.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Say I say shang Chi, but it could be shang Chi.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
I don't know, so I'm always wrong when it comes
to pronunciation. And that was I actually really liked that
one of the new ones. I enjoyed it, probably because
I liked all the creatures.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Yeah, you should have got a sequel.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I know he was good and I loved him like
I thought he was a really good actor. So I
do hope he is a big way. But I'm excited.
I'm just excited to I'm fully like full Marvel fan.
I've watched everything, I have consumed everything that somebody can
consume in Marvel, and now I finally get.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
To be a part of Did you ever watch the
original X Men movies? They're not a part of the MCU,
but now technically are going to be.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yes. Yeah, I went back and watched them after they
made an appearance in the Wanda movie.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Oh yeah, Wanda Visions.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
So I had watched it before. Somebody had said you should,
and I was like, well, I'll go back and watch them.
I had seen like some of the old Fantastic Four
and some of the like bigger X Men movie, but
I've never really watched them in their full capacity. So
I watched them all and they were good. I liked them,
but I mean they're not my favorite, if I'm being honest.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
I think that's why I'm excited now because those were, like,
that's what really got me in the superhero movies as
a kid like that, and Spider Man in the two
thousands were like the superhero movies, and then Cyclops was
one of my favorite superheroes that we haven't really seen
a whole lot, and now I feel like he's really undervalued.
So I can't wait to see James Mars didn't come back.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Yeah, that's gonna be crazy. And they're involving venom, I believe,
because that's a lot on a lot of people's watch lists,
which I'm like, how are you guys going to connect
all of these pieces because there's a lot of pieces now.
It's kind of like, and I guess that's the whole
purpose of like a multi universe thing is where they're
all just gonna But the only thing I don't hope
(06:52):
is I hope it has I hope it has a
lot of cohesion instead of it just being like constant
cameos of different variations, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Yeah, I feel like, well, from what I know with
the comics, they kind of all break into teams by
the time they get to Secret Wars, which is what
they're building into, so they kind of have like your
X Men team going you have these other teams that
feel like are a part of their own storyline. So
hopefully that's kind of how the story I mean, kind
of like it was an end game, you have like
these individual things going on back and forth instead of
(07:22):
just like here's Cyclops for two minutes and then he
goes away again, which I think we kind of goten
did Pull and Wolverine, where we just kind of cameo.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
Fest exactly, And that's what I don't want to happen.
But I'm also because I want a Ventures endgame moment,
so that's fine. Yeah, I'm probably asking for a lot.
Speaking of Leah and Pennsylvania, wanted to know which Marvel
movie we're both so pumped for this year. I mean
Doomsday for.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Sure, minus Spider Man, Like I can't wait for Spider Man.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
When does that one come out in July? And that's
the Is that the fourth installment for him?
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Fourth Tom Holland movie.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Yeah, he's got more than all the rest of the Spider.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Yeah, nobody ever got a four. No, Toby Maguire was
supposed to get a four. It never happened.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Yeah, so they must really loved Tumble.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
And then I feel like it's going to connect between
the current season of Daredevil Born again.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Have you been watching Daredeblin?
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Yeah, it's great, so good, right, because the Punisher is
going to be in it. They haven't said fully, but
I feel like Daredevil is going to be in it. Yeah,
so because it's going very street level crime New York City,
and I just think having that element in Spider Man
again is going to be good. Not in space it anymore.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Aren't they having a Punisher movie too?
Speaker 1 (08:34):
This year? It is like a special, so it's like
a one hour Punisher special that kind of leads into
Spider Man, so probably explains why he's going to be
in it.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Okay, we got a lot happening this year.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, good stuff, a lot of good stuff.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
So Spider Man's your first Doomsday.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
That would be my second.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Yeah, all right, that's fair. I will say the thing
that rivals Doomsday for me is Mandalorian and Grogu, which
I'm very excited to.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Yeah, I'm getting a little bit more excited for that now,
are you. Yeah, just because I started watching the mall
animated show on Disney Plus okay, and I'm like kind
of getting back into Star Wars a little bit, so.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
You're feeling it. Yeah, it comes down a few weeks's soon.
So those are my two. Like that, I'm heavy hitters
that in Devil War's producto.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Oh yeah, is a bringer in there. We watched the
first one. I was like, oh, yeah, that is good
to be good.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
It's so always gonna be so better because that was
such a good show. So those are my three, like
big ones.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
I feel like when it comes to those legacy sequels,
Disney does a pretty good job. Like Freak Your Friday
I thought was good.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Yeah, I agree, they've done well. At least they don't
like completely go a different direction. They keep with whatever
the theme was of the original movie.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
So far, and at least they're nervous like they're bringing
all the originals back, so it's not like they're recasting people.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Do you have That's when it gets icy.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Two g everybody's back, yes except that her boyfriend in
the movie, Yeah, which.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
I the end of the movie. This isn't a spoiler
because it came out so many years ago now twenty
years ago. But they aren't together at the end of
the day.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Like why would he Like if you shouldn't if you
were making a movie about your life, you wouldn't include
somebody you twenty years ago in the movie.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Like, yeah, like he should not be in it. Everybody
knows that they don't end up together based on the
first movie.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
It would make less sense if he wasn't it.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Yeah, exactly, But he is a big actor, so maybe
that's why everybody was mad and everybody loves him. But
I don't know. All right, I have one more movie
question before we take a quick break. Favorite movie from
each decade starting in the seventies that's from casey.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Seventies would be Star Wars and New Hope. Eighties would.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
I love how you just have these on deck too.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
I tell I'm gonna go with La Bomba, which was
probably the movie from the eighties I've seen the most. Nineties.
I'm going to go a goofy movie, two thousand's I'm
going to go two thousand and seven, No Country for
Old Men. We're going all the way till now. Yeah, now,
twenty tens. Twenty tens is tough because of some really
(11:04):
good stuff in twenty.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Nineteen great history knowledge movies as well.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I'm gonna go with Avengers Infinity War from the twenty
tens and then twenty twenties so far I will go.
There's been some good stuff. I'm gonna go Godzilla minus one.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Okay, there's two notable ones that you left out in
my brain.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Yeah it's Hard Twister.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Yeah, nineties, that's one of your favorite movies.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
That's probably number two in my favorite nineties movies, just
because I feel like, even though I've seen it more
than I've seen a Goofy movie, like a Goofy movie
is more a part of my being.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Okay, all right, and then Project hell Mary for.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Current Yeah, I still think I like Godzilla minus one
more than Project Hill Mary, but I mean Project Hill Mary.
Both of those movies are like in my top at
least twenty four of all time.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
Oh okay, yeah, okay, next time you come on in
part one, I think we need to do your top
like of all time movies.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Okay, maybe that's twenty.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Five because you can do that for your podcast, but
like we could do like a top ten, So prepare
for that, because I know I never for the movie
questions and you're like just pulling from the dome.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
So yeah, when it comes to years, like I'm pretty
good at like the decades I can get, I try
to get really good on like what years like for
a lot of the major movies. I've kind of memorized
those at this point, so I that's like kind of
what I went uprighted, especially when it comes to like
Oscar season, like I remember all those best pictures of
what it was up against. I think that's what I
(12:39):
would like if I could really like sit down and
study something. I would like to know every best picture
nominated in what year.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
That's wild, though, I mean, that's that's some crazy history knowledge.
I love it. Okay, we're gonna take a quick break.
We'll be right back with some more questions. Sophie would
like to know where did Mike d get married.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
I got married in Texas, where my wife's family lives.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Yeah. Yeah, it's really pretty.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Yeah, that was a cool spot. I think about the cactus.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
We never saw that venue before all blind. Yeah. I
think the thing with us is the time we got
married was like right outside of the pandemic, like the
first time you could really go out, like right when
the vaccine came out, and there was kind of that
window before that new strand so a lot of the
things we were doing were like contact was like it
(13:35):
was still like not doing anything in person. It was
also we were playing a wedding in Texas while we
were in Tennessee, so it's kind of just like, let's
just find stuff that works. We also weren't I think
I love that time because we were so less focused
on all the details. We just wanted to be able
to have fun that it kind of took away all
(13:56):
the pressures of like everything being perfect. So we were like,
here's this venue, we can get it all right, we're good.
We get people that we know to like help us
with stuff, and like, yeah, it's fine.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Yeah I love that. And your wife is super chill,
so I imagine she was just letting it all happen.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Yeah, we were just trying to figure it out, and
like even being able to happen was like a big
thing of like I don't know, or is it gonna
get shut down? Is everybody gonna get sick? What's gonna happen?
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Just let it be what it's gonna be.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
So I think it would look a lot different if
we got married now. Yeah, it'd probably feel a lot
more pressure, like what you're dealing.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
With different times, for sure. Yeah. There was a lot
of people who have messaged me and been like, I
got married during the pandemic, and honestly it really worked
out for me.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Yeah. I think I kind of liked the fact that,
like around the time we got married, there was a
very low pressure for all the little things.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
When you didn't feel pressure to invite a bunch of
people because you be around a bunch of people.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
I mean, yeah, that influenced a lot. I think that
would be my only regret is that I didn't invite
a whole lot of my family because there were some
people that like I'm not the super closest with, but like,
if I got married now, probably would have invited them.
But there was only so many people that we could invite,
(15:12):
and then once we kind of both filled up, like
our side, im like I just can't The problem my
family is like if I invite one person, there's like
sixteen people attached to that one person that you can't
invite just this one person. It's like their whole family. Yeah,
so that made it hard.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Yeah, well, and that makes sense why you had to Yeah,
there's some exclusion or you would have had a five
hundred person money.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Yeah. I mean that's the thing with my family, Like
in my because I have my mom's side, I have
my dad's side, but then I have like a lot
of family that's not really family, like cousins that I
grew up with that aren't really my cousins, but like
my dad and their dad are cousins, but I grew
up with them being my cousins. So like there's these
other little pockets of family that add up to like
another ten fifteen people, all the.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Things you would have had basically the entire.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
City that you grew up in exactly.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Yeah, not adds up, not amount of people between alcohol
and food, Like you'd be over the limit of just
having a normal wedding, So that would be crazy. Do
you think the show will be around five years from now?
That's from Natalie and Michigan.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
I will say yes. I think we are constantly having
to adapt. It's hard to say that anything will be
around in five years with the way technology just changes
so often. But I feel like the hard thing about
being in radio and podcasting is people have been saying
like it's gonna go forever, Like people have been saying
(16:33):
that since I got into radio, that it's been on
the verge of going away, and it hasn't. I think
something I struggle with right now is it feels like
everything for my childhood is like going away, or it's
like people have been saying forever, like movie theaters are
going away, or like the whole way of like traditional meat.
Everything just feels like it's becoming less impactful. So I
(16:55):
think that's something that every industry struggles with.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Yeah, one, just as we have a lot more technology
coming to fruition. It you either adapt and evolve or
you don't. And there's a lot of things that don't
adapt evolved and sometimes they can't. Just depends on what
everything gets faced with when the time comes to that evolution,
for sure. So I like it. Hot takes from my
(17:19):
any fun trips planned this year Alyssa in Illinois.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
We were just planning our summer trip, which we had
a couple of different options. We wanted to go to Canada,
Oh Love, and we were going to go to bamp
because we've been wanting to go for a long time.
And then we looked at like how long travel is?
It is a it is a task to get the
vamp is it?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
We want to go to Bam.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
We tried different places in Canada, Like we were going
to go to Montreal. What's the other place in Canada?
Not Urano over by like Seattle. Hm, I me like
thatsh Why am I forgetting it? Now?
Speaker 3 (17:57):
Well, there's Glacier Mountain National Park which is right there.
That's the there's like a trek there.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Vancouver, Vancouver, That's what it is. Yeah, we were gonna
go to Vancouver because we wanted to kind of like
we really liked a few years ago when we went
to Lake Tahoe And the only problem with that is
we didn't fully love where we stayed, but we like
the nature aspect of like being able to go on hikes,
go out to a lake. We thought maybe going to
(18:23):
Canada we could get those same vibes and try like
a different place. But it's it takes a long time
to get to Canada, does it?
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Like what is the flight to get to.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
The total like travel daytime and what we were looking
at was like twelve hours. That's for that to go
to Canada. I'd rather go like across the pond and
go somewhere else like overseas.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Can you not go to like Calgary, that's a main
city in Canada, that's by it.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
I just took forever to get there and it was
more expensive. So we decided, you know what, let's just
let's just play the hits. So we're gonna go to
New York again. We're gonna do like the longest amount
of time we ever spent in New York because we
always feel like we never get enough time there. And
my wife has also gotten me into Broadway, so we're
trying to pick what Broadway shows we want to go to.
We love going to baseball games. I love going to
(19:15):
collectible shops. It's also like we have to consider going
to a place where we can find stuff that we
can both eat, and it's so easy in New York City.
There's stuff everywhere, and it's not not only is it
like ve geting gluten free, but it's like the best
of the best.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Yeah. New York has just all the options. He there's
all kinds of bake shops and different options of every
single food that you could want.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
My wife has like a gluten free bakery that she
loves there. That's like you can't even tell, which sometimes
I can tell with gluten free bread, I'm like, ah,
that tastes gluten free.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Yeah, but then some man they found some great ways
to make things good free. So it's impressive.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
But right now, the runner, I'd say in the first
position of Broadway plays, want to go to Harry Potter
Kershchow if.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
You get to see Cushing it, Tom felt it.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Yes, he is going to be there when we were there.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Seriously, I will die. That would be so cool.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
That is what That is probably our number one pick.
If we can get tickets.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
You'll have to let me know how it is, because.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
I've heard like the special effects and all, like the
set design is really cool.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Yeah, and he renewed for another several months because he
was loving it so much. I mean, he was out
there every day, like signing things. I don't know if
he's still doing that now you've really exhausted doing it.
But for a long time, all that was in my
feed was like him going out after the show and
signing and meeting people.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Yeah, that would be so cool.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
You have to go to that one.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
So that's what we want. Yeah, that's what we want
to do. Just go see some plays, watching baseball games,
walk around. I just love walking around, like just being
able to walk around. You get some coffee, and then
you just kind of like, what do we want to
go do or do whatever?
Speaker 3 (20:54):
That's so fun? Okay, exciting And last but not least,
if you could meet one actor dead or who, would
it be.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Ooh, dead or alive? I'm going to go dead. I'm
going to go Chris Farley just because as a kid
probably made me laugh the hardest and was gone way
too soon and it would just be wild to be
able to meet him. And he's just hilarious. You know,
he's going through a lot of struggling a lot. I
(21:22):
just feel like if I could bring somebody back from
the dead to like start in a movie again, it
would be Chris Farley.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
That's a really solid one. Anybody alive that compares to
that for you?
Speaker 1 (21:33):
I was thinking of this. I won't say who, but
there's a possibility we could interview somebody on the Bobby
cast that I never really geek out towards anybody, And
then I saw this person on a list and I
was like, I feel like I would act differently around
them really where they're associated with one of my favorite
franchises of all time, and I'm like, I wouldn't even
(21:56):
put this person as one of my favorite actors, but
I think because of his association with the things that
I love, it was at first time I saw somebody,
I'm like, man, I might act a fool.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
You're like, my nerd is totally gonna come out here.
That's cool. Well, that's exciting.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
But I think I mean obviously like the big ones
like Leo or like a Jennifer Lawrence, some of the
people who I've been watching for like a really long
time and I love all their movies, or even like
Robert Pattinson. I feel like those type of people who
don't really feel real, and they're also like not on
social media a whole lot where I don't even feel
like I know it much about them, Yeah, because they's
(22:30):
still like that mystique level to them. I feel like
those are the only people that I would be like
starstruck by.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Yeah, that's a fair point, because the social media aspect
definitely makes you feel closer to the ones that have it.
You feel like you know stuff about their life and
the ones who don't you're like, I don't know you
see them for the first time, it's like a unicorn.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Because even like The Rock, one of the most famous people,
I don't feel like I would be that starstruck by
him just because I see him online so much. Yeah,
and I kind of like know what kind of person
he is just from like those encounters and like being
able to see so much of his life that it
would be cool, But it wouldn't be like, Wow, I
met the it wouldn't be like this crazy thing.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
Yeah, that's a fair point. I've never thought about that,
but it is totally true. And now that you say that,
it's like, I definitely think about the people who don't
have social media, Like Sandra Bullock didn't have social media forever.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
She has millions of followers now, yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
And now she's like on because I'm sure they get
pressured into getting an account to promote their stuff at
this day and age, and she didn't. And she has
a new movie that's coming.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Out, Practical Magic too, with her and Nicole Kidman.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Yeah, so I think it had to do with that.
But she wasn't on Instagram forever. She was one of
those where I was like, I don't know much about her.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
I mean, yeah, that was the thing with movie stars.
You wouldn't see them unless they were going to like
an award show. You'd have to pay money to go
see them. And then now it's like, oh, you got
to have a social media following to even get cast
in a movie, and then you got to do all
these videos where you're promoting yourself, and then people just
see so much of you. I do think that has
a little bit to do with why some movies flop.
And if you see people online so much and you
(24:02):
just get your kind of accustomed to seeing that on
your feed, that's where you go to see that person.
I feel like sometimes it's like, why am I going
to go pay to see them in theater something I'm
not that excited about. I get them all the time
for free.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
That's a good point, and it's like a lot of
people form opinions over the person rather than just wanting
to go see a cool new movie and a genre
that you like, Like, I feel like one of those
effects is Sidney Sweeney. She's all over social media. Everybody
has a lot of opinions about her because of a
lot of things that she's been involved with and I'm
sure that has some impact. She's still getting starred in things,
(24:36):
but it influences how people perceive them.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
Yeah, it's like she's super famous, but she could still
put out a movie and at bomb like Christy didn't
do that well at the box office. And I feel
like it's not just having a lot of followers or
having star power, it's having that convert to like do
people still want to pay money to see you too?
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Yep? And it's all about perception. Yeah, of how and
she could do none of those things, she'd be the
nicest person ever, but because of a perceived digital imprint
on her, that's what people think. And before that never
used to be thing. They were just movie starts.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Yeah, you never saw me, didn't know what they're doing.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
That's a good point. It's crazy making me think you
see my brain. Well, Mike, thanks for being here and

It’s the unlikeliest of criminal partnerships: a devout polygamist from an insular Utah sect joining forces with a shadowy Armenian tycoon from LA. The result - a billion dollar fraud conspiracy.

Together, the two men trigger the largest tax investigation in American history and weave around themselves a web of dirty cops, influential political relationships and transnational money laundering. All this is set against the backdrop of Jacob Kingston’s clan – The Order. A powerful and secretive polygamist organization in Salt Lake City. To whom Jacob is desperate to prove his worth.
