HAPPY HOUR FLIX is a podcast all about the movies we love and love to talk about. A nostalgic look at what we grew up watching and how they still impact us today. It's a lot of fun.

On this episode, Steven Pierce and Matt Mundy chat about the unforgettable suspense masterpiece, SE7EN. And to dive into all of the disturbing “pieces” is David Fincher alum, and friend Matt Walton.

It’s 1995, and everyone wants to know what’s in the box. Did the audience actually see anything in it? What was Mills’ real sin? And where is this story actually set? Is it Dante’s Purgatory?

No matter the answers, solving these mysteries makes us thirsty...so always, we invite you to grab a beverage and enjoy the stories, and reminisce with us. Our friends over at Misguided Spirits help us design and bring to you the perfect cocktail to enjoy alongside all our episodes.

This particular cocktail was designed by mixologist Dan Gotten from Zou Zou's* in NYC, the Gluttonous Envy!

Free Willy | with guest Jason James Richter (Free Willy, The Little Things, The NeverEnding Story III)

HAPPY HOUR FLIX is a podcast all about the movies we love and love to talk about. A nostalgic look at what we grew up watching and how they still impact us today. It's a lot of fun.
On today's episode, hosts Steven Pierce and Matt Mundy chat about one the most beloved films of a generation, FREE WILLY. And sitting down with them today is none other than the troubled whale-lover himself and star of the franchise, Jason James Richter.
Being Richter's first film, they dive deep into many personal experiences, including how he was "discovered", and what was more intimating - the orcas or Michael Madsen? Incredible stories of security on and off set... and we finally answer the mystery of just what WAS that sheet-cake, and was ketchup a normal condiment in Oregon in the 90's for cake?
As always, we invite you to grab a beverage and enjoy the stories, and reminisce with us. Our friends over at Misguided Spirits help us design and bring to you the perfect cocktail to enjoy alongside all our episodes.
This particular cocktail was designed by mixologist Lea Marie Logan from Belle Reve in NYC, aptly named the FREE WILLY!
Here's how you do it:
pinch of salt
x3 cucumber slices
pinch of mint 3/4 leaves
.5 simple syrup
Muddle
Add 1oz lime
2oz MISGUIDED gin
Top with soda water (preferred, Topo Chico if you've got it)
And finish with x2 "Free Willy" spritz (aromatic spritzer of coconut oil salt water solution)
Then bonus, rim glass with nori dust seaweed
Sit back, relax and enjoy HAPPY HOUR FLIX!

HAPPY HOUR FLIX is a podcast all about the movies we love and love to talk about. A nostalgic look at what we grew up watching and how they still impact us today.

On today's episode, hosts Steven Pierce and Matt Mundy chat about a literal madcap star-studded classic, IT'S A MAD MAD MAD MAD WORLD. And to discuss all the outsized comedy, who better than Aqua Teen Hunger Force’s own, Master Shake, Dana Snyder.

Not only was this one of Steve’s favorite movies growing up, Dana reveals how obsessed he became with it, too - collecting original scripts, stashing away lore and stories from the film as deep as a true Trekky, and how so many of the comedians and actors featured were his own inspiration to go into entertainment.

As always, we invite you to grab a beverage and enjoy the stories, and reminisce with us. Our friends over at Misguided Spirits help us design and bring to you the perfect cocktail to enjoy alongside all our episodes.

This particular cocktail was designed by mixologist Lea Marie Logan from Belle Reve in NYC, aptly named after our guest: the MASTER SHAKE!

Here's how you do it:
