    Ep. 195: Timothy Simons & Vic Michaelis

    It’s trivia with some Very Important People on Go Fact Yourself!  For years Timothy Simons was known for playing the deeply unpleasant character Jonah Ryan on the HBO series “Veep.” He’ll tell us what it’s like to finally play a nice guy on the Netflix show “Nobody Wants This.” Tim can also be heard on Second in Command: A Veep Rewatch Podcast. Vic Michaelis is an actor and improviser who’s a regular presence on Dropout TV. But one of their most proud roles is getting to star in Round and Round; it’s a Hallmark holiday movie… and that holiday is Hanukkah. Areas of Expertise: Tim: The TV show “The Wire,” Chicago theater in the early 2000s, and Tiger Woods. Vic: The movie Twister, the 2011 Tony awards, and LEGOs. What’s the Difference: Human Beans What’s the difference between a humane act and a humanitarian act? What’s the difference between soy beans and edamame? With Guest Experts: David Javerbaum: Tony-nominated and Grammy and Emmy-winning writer who co-wrote the opening number to the 2011 Tony awards. Sonja Sohn: Award-winning actor and filmmaker who’s known for playing Detective Kima Greggs on “The Wire.” Hosts:  J.

  2. Jaws with Timothy Simons

    Jaws with Timothy Simons

    Dunnnh dun. Dunnnh dun. Never before had two notes provoked such terror as they did in JAWS, the 1975 classic that invented the summer blockbuster, catapulted Steven Spielberg to Hollywood legend status, and inspired generational trauma about water. Actor and recognizable famous person Timothy Simons joins us to talk about this classic shark tale, and we go long on Scheider, Dreyfuss, Shaw, and the career of journeyman director Joseph Sargent (?). Which member of the Blank Check crew would be least likely to get attacked by a shark? Obviously Ben, because he respects water. What the hell did Chief Brody think he was gonna do when he apprehended the shark - arrest it? Why isn’t Griffin familiar with the concept of a ferry? We dare to ask these questions, just as the citizens of Amity dared to go into the water.
