Happy Feast of St. Crispin!

 

You know, St. Crispin's Day is also referred to as The Feast of St. Crispin. I've never considered the feast aspect. Probably won't do it. My heart isn't in it.

As an actor, how do I communicate that the weather is hot?

Late Night - Making Pizza with Martin Scorcese's Mom

 

Martin Scorsese, David Letterman and Bill Murray... you know, this is a show.

What other show has Martin Scorcese's mom baking a pizza? I ask you.

I really like Scorsese on a personal level. He's enthusiastic, he's passionate about films, he has funny anecdotes, he seems like a great guy... I don't like his movies though. There's nothing I can do about that. He's considered one of the greatest directors of all-time and his movies do absolutely nothing for me.

The Stuttering John Roundtable Discussion

 

I still mourn the loss of Tim Russert, I still miss tuning into "The McLaughlin Group" on Sundays, there is a persistent sense of loss when it comes to hard-hitting, serious discussion shows.

But now there is a weekly point/counterpoint show dedicated specifically to discussing "Stuttering" John to fill that void. The first episode was a waste of time, the second episode I think I didn't watch but I'm not sure, but now we're up to the third episode and this is something. This episode has #drama.

2 hours for a possibly niche topic is a big ask. Let's say I'm mostly posting this just in case and to celebrate that it exists. I love the concept.

Late Show - Mike McIntee's Favorite Moments

 

It's wild that we get an explanation as to what happened during the "Mistaken Ribs" debacle. I never imagined we would get that.

I really like Mike, he seems like a great guy.

And now a personal note and a question.

When the Late Show was still on the air they had a section of their website known as The Wahoo Gazette. The Wahoo Gazette was kind of a blog (or maybe a newsletter?) which was basically a synopsis of every episode of the Late Show with some behind the scenes stuff plus anything else the writer wanted to talk about. As it happens, the writer of The Wahoo Gazette was Mike McIntee and I communicated with him (through email) a few times. Once or twice, I was even mentioned in the feature, which was nice.

So that begs the question: is communicating with Mike McIntee a more tenuous brush with fame than my Bloodhound Gang Connection? You make the call.
