About this episode

Mike sits down with Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things, It, Ghostbusters: Afterlife), Billy Bryk (Hell of a Summer co-director/co-writer) and Fred Hechinger (Gladiator II, The White Lotus, Nickel Boys). They talk about their Gen Z slasher Hell of a Summer, how they wrote it for themselves, making sure it was funny while being behind and in front of the camera. Finn talks about his days of starring in punk rock music videos as a kid and what his first bit of success felt like. In the Movie Review, Mike talks Minecraft with Jack Black and Jason Momoa. Mike talks about how the movie won him over despite never playing the video game, how the story felt inspiring to him and how once again old crusty critics got it wrong.  In the Trailer Park, Mike shares his thoughts on the new Leonardo DiCaprio movie called One Battle After Another. Leo plays a former member of a revolutionary group who seeks help from other revolutionaries to find his missing daughter.
