Our most intense episode ever as Ken and Joel emotionally discuss the tragedy in Minneapolis. Dave Bautista joins the crew and they all discuss how difficult it is to express their beliefs as actors and artists in today's divisive climate. Joel and Ken then explore Bautista's incredible journey from bouncer to WWE world champion to global movie star and how he stays motivated and passionate as an actor despite all of his incredible success. Don't miss this one. It doesn't get more real than this.

Ken and Joel welcome Daniel Dae Kim and discuss everything from his long friendship with Ken to his bout and recovery from Covid-19. Nothing is off limits, and they get into a deep dive on the social ramifications of being an Asian-American in a country where the "China Virus" are still being tossed around. An amazingly deep and intense conversation among friends. Oh, and LOST questions are answered!
