The Mikes have been fans of College Humor & Brennan Lee Mulligan for years. We cited his Moviepass CEO sketch back when we did that saga episode on the subscription service. Our MMO Weekly “What We’re Watching” segments have often featured reviews of his show - Fantasy High on Dimension 20, College Humor’s Dropout streaming service on youtube. For fans of our show, know that we swear by this comedian, actor, writer, satirist, & podcaster, who just so happens to be one of the nicest & coolest people going. So please enjoy and share this episode with your friends. We had an absolute blast.

Brennan’s success story is as inspiring & encouraging as they come. From Bartender to the Upright Citizens Brigade, from Law & Order to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, and from NYC bachelor pads to LA writers rooms - he shares an incredible journey of years & years & years of work that eventually made him an overnight hit.

As a film school grad, Brennan also drops a ton of knowledge about the movie world. We chat about storytelling & Star Wars, the movie industry in the age of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Oscars and the recent selections of the Academy, and he dishes out some hot takes on Braveheart. We of course, beg him to host the Oscars and for more crazy stories from his improv days, early film scripts, how he moved to LA, and brought his enduring love of D&D from his childhood into the studios of Los Angeles with his new show on College Humor. He gives us everything we want & more.

Our Oscar Race coverage continues on Monday with another episode of MMO Weekly as we’ll be recapping & reacting to the Screen Actors Guild Awards. We’ll finish up our movie reviews of all of the nominees with Cold War, Can You Ever Forgive Me, and At Eternity’s Gate in our Oscar Sprint Profile Series.
