This week, it's a Mike Makes Mike Watch, where each Mike is forced to watch something they haven't seen. For Mike Smith, that's the 2000 Sandra Bullock comedy MISS CONGENIALITY (should have saved this podcast for April 25th, but whatever). For Mike DeCriscio, it's arguably the best film Tim Burton ever directed - 1994's ED WOOD!

Mad Max: Fury Road (GUEST: Kyle Buchanan, author of BLOOD, SWEAT & CHROME: THE WILD AND TRUE STORY OF MAD MAX: FURY ROAD)

This week, Mike Smith got to talk for a few minutes with New York Times writer Kyle Buchanan, author of the new book BLOOD, SWEAT & CHROME: THE WILD AND TRUE STORY OF MAD MAX: FURY ROAD. And then, inspired by the book, the Mikes decided to give the movie a rewatch and talk about it, with the additional context that the book provides. (Pro tip: it is always a good idea to rewatch MAD MAX: FURY ROAD.)

Let us ride eternal, shiny and chrome, into the gates of Valhalla!
