EP. 196 — Sheer Will of Force and Salsa
Renaissance man T.J. Miller has been killing it on HBO’s Silicon Valley and he’s returned to the calming shores to give us a behind the scenes run down of the incredibly well written/casted & hilarious Mike Judge TV show. T.J. describes Mike Judge’s intense attention to detail towards a character, what it’s like to act alongside a fantastic roster of comedic actors, and why luck ultimately makes a TV show really work. Before getting into a round of Quick Hits, T.J. gets into some of the very interesting experiences he had working with Michael Bay & Mark Wahlberg while filming Transformers 4 such as Michael fighting a real house fire. Later, Jesse “The Body” Ventura sheds some light on the mystery surrounding the death of The Ultimate Warrior from his secret bunker in Mexico.
