And in this corner, all the way from Boston, Massachusetts; in his grand return performance: the East Coast terror! The Masshole himself! Mike “the Boston Strangler” Carr!!! The show is officially 6 months old, and to celebrate such a momentous(ly arbitrary) milestone, I’ve asked Mike Carr to come back and talk some more about Professional Wrestling. It’s a nice capstone on 2018, and a great conversation to listen to if you want to remind yourself how great a guy Mike actually is. He lives somewhere else now, but he’ll always live in our hearts if we choose to never forget him. Let’s dive in.

I've had enough people ask when I'm going to do an episode about something I'm into that I decided to finally sit down and talk about the history of animation. My beautiful wife, Gemma, (reluctantly) agreed to sit down and be the host for this special episode, and I think you'll agree her soft British accent is much more preferable to my nasally Midwestern whine. Anyway, I hope you're "drawn" to this conversation.

In the not-too-distant past --

About a month ago --

There was a guy named Brett,

and asked Katelyn to his show.

She talked all about Joel and Mike,

And which of the hosts that she liked;

So many positive things she could say,

But she didn't like the redhead part

Had gone to Felicia Day.

If you're sitting there grumbling because

we messed up your favorite facts (la la la),

Then repeat to yourself, "It's just a show,

I should really just relax

For Mystery Science Theater 3000!"

Do you like soccer? How about futbol? Well guess what, friend? We’ve got it all in this episode of What Am I Missing? Join me as I talk to Michael Ferris (“Ferris” to his friends) about why the Beautiful Game is just so damn popular around the world. He actually has a pretty good answer for that. At the start of the conversation, you’ll want to buy a Vuvuzela. In the middle of things, you’ll be chanting, “Ole! Ole Ole Ole!” And by the end of the episode you’ll have no choice but to yell, “GOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLL!!!” at the top of your lungs. It’s gonna wear you out! Let’s dive in (but no hands though).

It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Jared Ross King! Talking about the DC Extended Universe! Or the TV shows. Or...what is going on over there? Join us as we chat about the good, the bad, and the really bad when it comes to Marvel's main competitor. Is there hope for DC? Hmmm...I Wonder...

Duh-DUN. Duuuh-DUN. DuhDun DuhDun DuhDun DuhDun DuhDun! What’s that sound? The ominous soundtrack to your impending doom? A prelude to being torn limb from limb by a bloodthirsty shark?! No! It’s just Megan Borkes come to talk to me about all things Jaws. From the ride at Universal Studios, to the book, to the movies, Megan is a one-stop shop for all things Great White. How did he get the name Bruce? Is there a curse on the Brody family? How old does Megan think I am anyway? All these questions answered and more in this week’s episode of What Am I Missing? Just….don’t go in the water.

What's this? What's this? It's Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas! Who's this? It's Daryl Black: improviser, artist, father, superfan. Where's this? The WAIM studio, AKA my office. How's this? I don't know...Apple figured out the technology like 12 years ago to make this stuff accessible and easy to listen to on the go. Why's this? I wish I had an answer for you.

I should have just stayed in my lane. Let's dive in.

Quick, how many dinosaurs can you name? 3? 5? 8? How many prehistoric eras can you name? 1? Maybe 2? How about classifications of species? 0? How many opinions about Jurassic Park and Dungeons and Dragons do you have? Some? A lot? If you were Ryan Gigliotti, the answer to every question would be "All of them." Learn something now. Let's dive in.

You know who Bruce Lee is. We all know who Bruce Lee is! But do you KNOW Bruce Lee? His outlook? His philosophies? His Cha-Cha? Well Andy Ransom does, and he is bringing his dulcet tones into the WAIM studio to talk about The Dragon himself. So pour yourself a tea, pull up a beanbag, and get ready to get meditative. Let's dive in.

Here she is: Miss America! Or Miss Ohio? Or Miss Ohio runner-up? Anyway, she was there. Join me as I sit down with Meg Wittman while we discuss the ins and outs of what it takes and (more importantly) what it MEANS to be a beauty queen. Put your preconceived notions aside and dive in. This ain't no Toddlers and Tiaras.

There's a world where I can go and tell my secrets to. In my room...where all my recording equipment is. It's not a secret anymore, though. Matt Midgette is here for Part 2 of our conversation about the Beach Boys, where we learn about the highs, lows, and eventual highs again of "America's Band." Also, Uncle Jesse from Full House?! Oh yes, my friends, he's here. Have Mercy!
