Starting point is 00:00:00 Hi, I'm Mike Chernivsky, and your listen to this podcast is Un Called For. so welcome once again to this podcast is uncalled for season 7 hard to believe but we're here uh we took a little hiatus at the end of season 6 got a lot of stuff happened um and i'm going to just catch you up to speed on something goings on. Aside from starting work again and all that's with the with the clubs and stuff a few events have happened
Starting point is 00:01:16 one, something family related involving my brother that I'm not going to go into the details out of respect for his privacy. But I'll just say that I've had to make multiple trips to the hospital to get him to and from his various appointments. And this is a great time to give a shout at to the Harvest Kitchen at their branded Athens care,
Starting point is 00:01:54 but screw it. call it shunny mission med anyway all right so credit to them for having good food and very reasonably price I mean it's cheaper to
Starting point is 00:02:10 eat in that hospital cafeteria than it is at McDonald's all right so that's number one number two yeah just being lazy on account of starting up work again and
Starting point is 00:02:26 having to help out with my brother we haven't been able to do a whole lot of scheduling for podcasts until just now so
Starting point is 00:02:43 apologies for that and one of the contributing factors I'll just come around and said one of the contributing factors to this hiatus you may have heard about it
Starting point is 00:03:02 but there were a couple of strikes in the entertainment industry WGA the WGA the Writers Guild of America went on strike first and at the time I'm recording as they have in fact settled
Starting point is 00:03:19 and short after that sag after the Screen Actors Guild combined with the American Federation for Television and Radio Artists which is the actors union they went on strike
Starting point is 00:03:35 and full disclosure a few of our guests have been members of Sag Afterra so I have respect I could not ask them to cross a pick-in line even though podcasts are
Starting point is 00:03:54 exempt from the strike unless we're talking about struck works as they would call it so this season I'm going to try my best to not have so many actors on just
Starting point is 00:04:16 just in case they decide to I don't know I don't know. Full disclosure. I'm a matter of neither SAG after nor the WGA. So.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Or any other union for that matter. So get that out of the way. And the last thing we need to discuss is we're going to have new co-hosts for this season. Braden decided to leave
Starting point is 00:04:55 and cited as his reason for leaving my love of sports well you're coming on a podcast that's life exploration you're going to talk about sports
Starting point is 00:05:10 especially since the host in question happens to be a big sports fan but I do want Give a quick thank you to Brayden for the work he did contribute to the podcast, and you are always welcome back. As long as this podcast is going, you are always welcome back.
Starting point is 00:05:40 So we'll spend a little bit of time today getting to know our new co-hosts. One of whom has already been on the podcast as a guest. heard the news and said hey i'd like to help that's uh i'd prefer someone local but if you want call in from time to time that's perfectly all right to and uh oh and you may have noticed our intro we went back to our original intro with the iron bacon um so uh folks It takes a lot of time to isolate those clips to put into the intros. So to save myself the hassle. I'm just going back to basics.
Starting point is 00:06:39 And, uh, and, uh, and, uh, yeah, yeah. So I'm really excited about this, uh, coming season. And I hope, uh, you are as well. I will try to get some, try to get some of those interviews that we just hang out around to and keep this going and and uh and uh that's the beauty of this podcast is that we can talk to just about anyone about anything and uh you'll go on as long as i want it to go on and uh i've already i may have said this on the podcast i don't think i have but
Starting point is 00:07:20 stands now anyway if you ever see an episode title she's on the roof that means i'm get ready to wrap it up so let's uh take a little break and when we come back we're going to go over some stats and we're going to meet our new co-hosts so back and set So, of course, if you didn't hear about the strikes that I mentioned in the first parts, a big portion of those strikes is the use of artificial intelligence to write scripts or even replace actors wholesale into films. don't think that's right and we will never be allowing
Starting point is 00:08:27 AI to write our material here and I'm going to demonstrate why in a second I do acknowledge that we use text to speech for like some of the intros and atros
Starting point is 00:08:45 and stuff and that's not going to change although we're taking a break from it this season with me doing the intros and atros this time. Anyways, I did try a chat-G-P-T and first asked it to write a promo for the podcast and then give a script for the podcast. This is what they gave me and will demonstrate

Starting point is 00:14:06 screwing up history in the prehistoric era and it's a real funny if you haven't seen it you probably someone's going to have a little posts on YouTube so you

Starting point is 00:14:45 back now as a co-host one-time guest on the podcast, Jared Feldman. So Jared, welcome back. Good to be Thank you. It's good to be back. Good to be back.
Starting point is 00:15:02 Yeah. So how you've been? I had better days, you know. So for a little context, my car is in the shop two days in a row. uh we're getting some uh yeah you may need to get off the phone there i'm again some uh feedback oh okay unless i learn the hard way or anything it's recording on my
Starting point is 00:15:31 yeah all right is it still going yeah it's still going it's still going it's still recording again on my end so all right so uh yeah cars in the shop uh should be okay okay yeah cars in the shop should be out tomorrow um it's been uh we've had just days of rain up here in kC so as has the weather in springfield um it just this was the first day it started raining and it's supposed to be like raining for the next five days yeah that's about what we've been dealing with all week so yeah so so the agenda then will be you'll be joining me
Starting point is 00:16:31 at least once a month on these of Zoom calls and I'll leave it up to you to see if and you get some guests on the podcast. Yes. Yeah. Yes. We had an episode release today with one of our old West buddies. Nice.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Carl. Oh, Carl. Fletcher. Yeah. That was a fun one. That was a fun one. So you'll be one of at least. I bet.
Starting point is 00:17:08 You'll be one of at least two. co-hosts i'll be bringing on uh i'm also looking for someone here in the kansas city area they can sit down with and uh talk about uh stuff hopefully they can bring on some guests too so i do have a short list of guests i would love to have on the podcasts a lot of them are our fellow west guys so that's awesome and it should keep getting bigger yeah yeah um there are there are a lot of misconceptions that's a lot of people because a lot of my guests have been local filmmakers and actors
Starting point is 00:17:45 there's a lot of misconceptions that's we're a film podcast because of that's I know this is a general podcast but because I'm in that realm yeah that's that a lot naturally tends to be who we
Starting point is 00:18:04 bring on so So, yeah, cool. And it seems like we should probably encourage them to be bald like us, right? Right. Of course, mine is bald not by choice, but by heredity. And, of course, when you came on last time, you told the story of how you came to be bald. yeah yeah uh one group of guests i would love to get on the podcast uh you may have heard this
Starting point is 00:18:48 charity the big slick is that a restaurant no the big slick uh it's bunch of actors all from the kc area they get together like once a year to raise money for uh children's mercy and, well, a couple of names that you may or may not be familiar with, like Paul Rudd. Paul Rudd, yes. Yeah, Jason Sadecas is involved with this, too. Oh, good. Yeah. Nice, Mike.
Starting point is 00:19:27 That's a good deal. Senecas is hilarious. Yeah. Thank you. Yeah. I saw all my yearbooks and yeah right there my freshman yearbook your sophomore yearbook on the basketball page they quote sedacus yes and then to find out that he based a lot of the Ted Lassow character on Campbell yeah that makes a lot of sense yeah yeah it's now it makes some
Starting point is 00:20:04 much since. Yeah. And once in a while, we'll do a discussion as well on certain topics. Like this past season when I had a co-host, we did discussions on
Starting point is 00:20:22 like gig economy and did our celebrating Mount Rushmore's. And he did bring a couple of guests. But for some reason, at least, especially that first one that he did, it felt quite one-sided that I was just a third wheel on my own podcasts, if it felt like. Oh, man. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:56 And they decided to quit because we talk about sports too much. Yes. which I know are we talking like all sports yeah pretty much all pretty much a little bit of all sports we did a little bit on the NFL draft because I attended the draft and that's all a fun in fact
Starting point is 00:21:27 in fact you know I'll show you why I wore to the draft my bona fides from when I was a Ram fan 1 or 13 oh really nice yeah my wife would love that yeah I noticed your wife
Starting point is 00:21:51 did she become a ram was she a Rams fan in St. Louis and carried on to L.A. or all throughout her dad was a rams fan when he when they were um in los angeles oh wow yeah so kind of similar and i think from the some of some of the research i did the rams originated in minnesota right cleveland ohio cleveland ohio yes because they had rams up there because they're like yeah there's no there's no actual rams animals in californ no no they were originally from
Starting point is 00:22:30 Cleveland and they actually got the name not from the not from any Rams in the in Northeast Ohio but because the original owner was a Fordham fan and fordums oh really yeah interesting how it all just comes together because that's what I learned about the Lakers they were Minnesota Lakers because they had lakes up in Minnesota and they were like yeah we We don't really have a lot of, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's something interesting to me, how all these sports teams got their names in the first place. You know, I'll take my current team in football, I'm now, I've since become an Arizona Cardinals fan.
Starting point is 00:23:25 Really? Yeah. because Michael Bidwell was one of the owners to vote against the Rams moving. Good. So the story with the Cardinals, they were actually in Chicago initially and are one of the two
Starting point is 00:23:43 remaining founding members of the NFL. They're still in existence, along with the Chicago Barrett. Wow. And they were called the Cardinals because of the color of their unies. a faded red that they called Cardinal Red
Starting point is 00:23:59 and the name stuck. That's good. Good that they make a relation to it. Yeah. Now, an interesting, like, let's talk about the Washington team.
Starting point is 00:24:15 The Washington commanders now, yes. Well, I've the new, what are they, the senators or something? Yeah, commanders. as in commanders that's what it is commanders yeah of course uh yeah i did a whole episode actually it was a recycled from winning sides talking about native american nicknames in the case of uh the washington team where they were originally from boston
Starting point is 00:24:45 and uh this was at a time where both the baseball and football team would share the same name so they were the boston braves initially and then oh wow And then a couple of years later, their owner, a guy by the name of George Preston Marshall, changed the name to Redskins, and stuck until, yeah, just a few years ago. Yeah. Where they were finally forced to drop it. They called themselves the Washington football team for a couple of years. And, yeah, this is their second year as the commanders. I personally like the name
Starting point is 00:25:24 and it's appropriate to consider D.C.'s a role in our country. Yes, totally. Now, I don't, I think it would be kind of cool if they came out with another sports team and they call them the baldies, you know, because almost all,
Starting point is 00:25:46 all athletes are almost all bald, you know. And you can't take, you can't take offense to that because it's true almost yeah we're we're living proof yeah uh man and we could be presidents of the team because we're wrong right right right um let's see what's another good uh oh yeah the other original NFL team of stillings is the Chicago Bears so they were originally in Decatur Illinois their first year and they were called the Staley's for the company that was sponsoring them. Then they moved to Chicago one year
Starting point is 00:26:27 later and then the year after that they changed the end of the Bears because they were playing at Wrigley Field and football players are generally bigger than baseball players. So there you go. And are they going to be doing any more expanding on teams for like the NFL or the baseball or basketball even?
Starting point is 00:26:56 Well, with basketball, I've heard they could be expanding very soon by two. One would be a return of the Seattle Supersonics. Yes. Absolutely. Absolutely. And the other would be in Las Vegas from I've heard. And Vegas. Yeah, Vegas could very well begin baseball here soon too with our team, our city's former team, the A's possibly moving there.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Oh, really? Yeah. The athletics? Yep. Good. So Vegas would be at four sports city. I'm trying to keep tabs on this whole XFL, USFL merger because I've become a big Balhawks fan with the XFL.
Starting point is 00:28:02 And, yeah, it looks. Yeah, so for context, for anyone who's listening, because we haven't brought this up on the podcast yet, the XFL and the USFL and the USFL agreed to merge. They're talking
Starting point is 00:28:20 possibly the 2024 season, so just about the time this will release. We should hopefully be seeing more spring football. And it makes sense to keep the
Starting point is 00:28:37 battle hawks because as a consequence of being screwed out of the NFL, Yeah, Balhawks attendance has been through the roof. Literally. Literally, yeah. Do you think it's also a good sign? Because, yeah, I guess they're getting the Canadian Football League going again.
Starting point is 00:29:02 I think it's already been with the Canadian footballing. It is going. So that means, yeah, that's going to give room to American football teams to start. and expanding, they might need four or six more teams because they can use the new players from the Canapagos League. Kind of like how Warner came from. Yeah, with Warner, it was the Arena League. They went to NFL Europe.
Starting point is 00:29:31 That's right. With the Rams, yeah. Yeah. Did I tell you, I actually met Kurt Warner once? No way. Yeah, just right after that Super Bowl, there was a collector's show here at the old O.P. Trade Center. Warner was there, San Diego Graves, Kevin Carter was there, and Isaac Bruce was there. And I got to meet all.
Starting point is 00:30:00 That is awesome. We got to meet all three of them. In order of most enthusiasts, at least I'd say Carter, then Warner, then Bruce, unfortunately, unfortunately. Warner was interesting because the guy in front, right in front of me in line, he had just got his stuff signed by Kurt. He dropped his stuff on the floor. I picked up to help the guy out, and Kurt's already signing the photo I had him sign, and, oh, thank Kurt. And got to shake the man's hand. and then a year before that
Starting point is 00:30:43 yeah a year before that same same show got to meet Eric Dickerson who was the reason I became a Ram family oh that is awesome yeah and this was just before he was getting into Canton too so that's totally cool
Starting point is 00:31:01 and then Kramm Abdul-Jabbar and James Worthy I met at that same show too was not Not Empirine, but Worthy was pretty cool. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Is it you that Worthy, did he, do you play with Jordan in college?
Starting point is 00:31:22 I probably wouldn't know. I think they, I think he was a Carolina guy, but I don't think they overlapped. I could be wrong. I think he was a senior when Jordan was a freshman. similar to the me and sedacas situation at west because he was a senior during my freshman year and I had to look into that yeah
Starting point is 00:31:48 and and should a nice little sidetrack James Worthy the only Star Trek actor I actually met in person he played He was. He played a Klingon in one episode of Next Generation. Oh, that is awesome. In M.A lines, but, yeah, he played a Klingon.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Yeah. Oh, that is great. Yeah. I remember, I always wonder, who makes better actors, NFL players, basketball players, or baseball players? great question great question because uh jim brown who recently passed great football player a big good actor uh fred the hammer he was an actor yeah yeah jim james jim brown was an actor i did not know that uh fred the hammer williamson also comes in mind that uh football player turned actor.
Starting point is 00:33:02 Mm-hmm. Yeah. Let's see. Basketball. Hmm. I can't think of any basketball. You have to admit, Tom Brady's being a good actor
Starting point is 00:33:15 on all the commercials. Yeah. He does. Oh, yeah. Tom Brady. Tom Brady actually played himself on Family Guy. So,
Starting point is 00:33:23 I'm serious. I'm serious. Have you seen? that new movie about Brady it's like with those four ladies oh no no I haven't I haven't I've got no interest to see it I have by half I've been seeing all the new Star Trek and all the South all South Park of course so you might see right here yeah I didn't actually meet them in person but there's a really great podcast you should check out called the well is co-hosted by anson mounts who's the actor who plays he's the actor who plays captain pike
Starting point is 00:34:06 in the current iterations of truck and that's his a r-graf right there and his buddy brandon so definitely check that podcast out they there's at least one sports themed episode of that they interviewed june jones so i was saying it's interesting talking about clingons and everything like which generations of the star trek series do you think like was really good in like order i know the james t kirk episodes they were corny yeah the movies were far better yeah agreed agreed uh that has to do with budgets too um some of the Some of the recurrent series are pretty good, too.
Starting point is 00:35:01 Like, I mentioned Strange New Worlds just now, so I definitely suggest that one. Although there is one episode, I would probably skip. And kids being tortured. That's my, that's my recommendation there. I love Lower Decks, which is the animated series. It's really funny and really referential to past Trek. Oh, that is good.
Starting point is 00:35:39 Let's see. Voyager, that's one that gets a lot of hate from some people, but is on the flip side, the most downloaded in terms of streaming. so so I do recommend a few episodes of that and yeah with me
Starting point is 00:36:09 anything but the JJ movies you know you can skip those really yeah yeah I wonder how the Star Wars universe is going
Starting point is 00:36:25 I know they made nine movies and they did a whole bunch of spinoffs. I'm not really as big a Star Wars guy, but which is which is funny because I did see episode one, like
Starting point is 00:36:41 seven or eight times in the theater. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Which I remember when I came out. I went to the I think the original Glenwood on Metcalf. I think it was on Metcalf.
Starting point is 00:37:00 Yeah, the Glenn, okay, yeah, where they, it's been torn down and is currently, I think, a Italian buffet and used to be a Whole Foods. They just repurposes a clinical trials lab. Oh, wow. Yeah. But I think the Glenwood. name still carries on. They just moved it to Ranch March March on 95th in Leewood. So I wonder if it's sort of like a scientific experiment on the people who ate the
Starting point is 00:37:41 Whole Foods. Now they're the clinical trials patients. The Whole Foods, to my knowledge, that Whole Foods moved to the UMKC campus. Really? Yeah. So there'll be an epidemic going on there. Hey, come on. I'm a roof, so, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:08 But, yeah, they built a whole foods and some luxury apartments right where a parking lot used to be when I was attending UMKC. Right across the street from where the southern terminus of the streetcar extended. extension is going to be built. Really? Yeah. That's been going for a while, right? Let's see. This extension, they started building a little over a year ago.
Starting point is 00:38:42 They're more than halfway done with laying track, and it should be open by 25. Oh. running and this is the part running from union station down to UMKC so it hits westport it'll hit the plaza at different parts of midtown yeah that sounds like it's going to be impressive mm-hmm yeah uh there's going to be a there's going to be a online meeting a couple weeks that I plan on sitting in onward there
Starting point is 00:39:20 they're talking about this stops along at the East West extension which will overlap with this a little bit so if you're driving now Main Street right now there are currently gaps at 39th Street and Linwin Boulevard specifically for this East West thing
Starting point is 00:39:42 Wow to go from Main Street west on 39th to KU Med and then on Linwood it would go east all the way to the bus station
Starting point is 00:39:59 currently sitting at Van Brunt and it would service the VA hospital Wow Yeah great times will be Kansas City and especially in terms of transit and all the other stuff that's been happening
Starting point is 00:40:16 around here lately i talked about the draft earlier got this got the world cup coming in a couple years uh they're talking about transit projects there got the airports that just opened a new terminal wow i've only seen like the uh passenger pickup sad things because uh i've flown since 2008. But yeah, good set up. Well, that's and of course,
Starting point is 00:40:52 Checks notes, entertainment news recently. One of the Chiefs players is dating a certain pop singer. Yes, yes. It's on every game. They show more about
Starting point is 00:41:08 those two, then they do the actual game. Yeah. That's what it feels like. Yeah. Yeah. And I found a couple weeks ago, one of my chess co-workers is neighbors with Mr. Kelsey. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:27 And he tells me, he tells me, yeah, there are vans and stuff in the neighborhood. People are, they asking the neighbors to show. show idea like dude we live here that sort of thing so yeah that's an interesting way to get put on the map and then I came across his podcast as well so Travis Kelsey if you are somehow listening to this I run the Kansas City podcasters meetup you're more than welcome to stop by at some points and impart some knowledge.
Starting point is 00:42:11 You're welcome on this podcast to talk about podcasting. I promise we won't talk about your lady friend at all. Okay. So where does that meet up? Where does that meet at? It varies.
Starting point is 00:42:29 If I say this month it'll be on Zoom because I'm busy with a chess club and stuff. We've done that at the library. We've done it at Panera. And so it's going to vary from months a month.
Starting point is 00:42:49 I try to do at least once a month and whether or not people actually show up, that's a different story. Yes. I can only put the word out and everything everything else that's on that's on you
Starting point is 00:43:06 just RSVP by showing up show up simple as that that's right yeah yeah and people miss out on a lot of fun
Starting point is 00:43:16 when they don't show up although to be honest lately it's been a lot of answering questions about people wanting to get in the podcasting so how do I start a podcast again
Starting point is 00:43:28 and I know yeah i yeah i feel how old are you how old are you with for your first podcast uh let's see my first podcast was uh 11 years ago i'm 45 now so doing the math i would been uh 35 is yeah third uh 33 is it started 2012 Wow. 2012 was my first bodhist.
Starting point is 00:44:02 Crazy. Yep. All right. So we do have a few minutes remaining because I am a cheap skates and do not want to upgrade from this basic Zoom.
Starting point is 00:44:20 All right. But we will do this at least once a month. Yeah. Probably that last Friday would probably be the best time to do it and yeah I'll leave up to you to wrangle
Starting point is 00:44:32 some guests for us and definitely the seasons go 14 episodes no not 14 18 episodes minimum so I've been on to go
Starting point is 00:44:46 a little longer and I can send you a list of I guess I want to bring on yes and I'll I'll do that as soon as we're done here. Okay.

Starting point is 00:46:49 Yes, Gropi, yes. Yeah. All right, so it's great to bring Jared back on the podcast this time as a co-host. We will be introducing our second new co-host later in this episode. but first I went to address unfortunately another passing
Starting point is 00:47:27 this one was someone who was asked to be on the podcast and unfortunately we never got around to game on so thank you to
Starting point is 00:47:43 KSHB Channel 41 for reporting on this dated October 31st 2023 so Halloween the Kansas Missouri
Starting point is 00:47:57 Fire Department said one person died in a house fire Tuesday morning in the 5100 block of Brooklyn Avenue emergency crews
Starting point is 00:48:11 were called to the scene shortly after 4 a.m. and witnessed smoke and fire from the house As crews entered, they encountered heavy fire on both floors of the home. Firefires then backed out of the home for a time and fought it defensively until they could knock down the flames. Then they re-entered to snuffin-outs and they sprayed water on the house next door
Starting point is 00:48:38 to prevent flames from spreading. KCFD initially reported that no injuries were suffered in the house. fire but later updating that one victim an adult male was found dead inside the residence the department said the victim was around 40 years old and an investigation to determine the cause of the fire is underway the the victim his name was Rajesh Krish one of the coolest dudes I know and that was a reason
Starting point is 00:49:21 I invited him a number of times to do the podcast at the very last time I ever saw him was to invite him on the podcast he was really
Starting point is 00:49:33 Indian gentleman as you could probably tell from the name really cool guy I actually first met him through politics he was involved with the
Starting point is 00:49:46 young Democrats. Really cool guy then. And had benching for just be a really cool dude. He even attended a naturist event
Starting point is 00:50:03 one time. A friend of the podcast, died Gaphart. Drove me and two others. One of them was Rajesh to a bowling alley for naked bowling.
Starting point is 00:50:18 I don't bowl myself but came along just because it was going be a fun time but Rajesh did
Starting point is 00:50:27 participate to his credit and never told anyone about that until now and yeah the last time
Starting point is 00:50:40 I saw him was actually at a singles event so trying to get more involved in singles scene
Starting point is 00:50:48 I remember it was ridiculously allowed and Rajesh was actually one of the guys performing that night
Starting point is 00:50:58 well we can't have them on the podcast unfortunately because it's kind of hard to have someone on the podcast after they've passed away so so once can we
Starting point is 00:51:15 memorialize my friends and where whatever you canter in the afterlife Godspeed so unfortunately
Starting point is 00:51:40 I don't have any material with our second new co-hosts yet, but I can't tell you that we do have a second co-host, a more local guy for me to work with, and I'll be open to adding more. We'll see how everything goes, but his name is Brett Zeller, and he will, like Jared, be joining us from time's time whenever schedules permits, and E2 has been tasked with finding appropriate guests for the podcast.
Starting point is 00:52:16 not to say I'm absolving myself from that entirely because I'm not because there are still people I really want to get on the podcast and I really really want to talk to and I'm the guy to do it and I'll go and leave a couple of recommendations for your listening pleasure once a podcast
Starting point is 00:52:44 one that I kind of alluded to already that I've started listening to a little bit recently. It's called New Heights co-hosted by Jason and Travis Kelsey. Yes, the same Travis Kelsey plays for our local NFL team and started dating a certain pop star and his brother, Jason, plays
Starting point is 00:53:09 center for the Philadelphia Eagles. They do a weekly podcast that's is mostly centered around football because I mean they're both professional football players but once in a while they'll talk about other stuff like
Starting point is 00:53:26 getting into an animated discussion in response to a question of how many holes does a straw have and gets in a discussion of how many is a hot dog a sandwich
Starting point is 00:53:43 and parenthetically it is so and you should also hear Jason's description of Twilight despite him stating for the
Starting point is 00:53:58 record that his team this movie shouldn't exist and I maintain that Twilight is good snapshots of the stereotypical LDS
Starting point is 00:54:14 Family Dynamic So do check out The New Heights Podcast Music-wise As you all know I'm a huge Trekkie
Starting point is 00:54:27 And Strange New Worlds Has been A show that I've been watching A lot I said there's one episode You can Just flat out skip Because a child
Starting point is 00:54:40 is being tortured to death but these are clearly very talented individuals you heard me talking about Hansen Mounce podcasts before and I'm still going to recommend that I'm also going to recommend the music of another cast member her name is Christina Chong and this past year she's been
Starting point is 00:55:04 exploring music and it's a really really good stuff. She did sell physical CDs and full disclosure. I bought a physical CD.
Starting point is 00:55:24 I said the music's really good. Unfortunately I don't think she's selling any more of the fiscal copies but you can find her music on Spotify and wherever you get your music and podcasts. So do check it out.
Starting point is 00:55:41 I highly recommend the song No Blame. Probably heard best of the bunch. Although the music video for Cancho Love was pretty fun. Mostly a home video, so check that out too.
