    S2E13 - Walkaway - Conversation with Democrat defector Brandon Straka

    Interview with Brandon Straka - interesting and a little combative. Born and raised in rural Nebraska and now a resident of New York City, Brandon created and promotes his #WalkAway Campaign message and his desire to bring a new awareness and understanding to the reality of politics in America today. He left his hatred for Trump and the Democratic party and "walked away" to the MAGA Republicans where he claims his mission is to unify America. We thought his message, while interesting, was a bit extreme in that he feels to fix America means burning the government to the ground. The most interesting takeaway here is that we agreed with Brandon on many topics and it was clear we wanted many of the same things despite our opposing party affiliations. We just felt there was a different way of achieving the goals than "walking away."

    S2E12 - The Real T & Me : Two Decades with Tina Turner - A Conversation with Eddy Armani

    Exclusive interview with the author of THE REAL T AND ME: Two Decades of Love, Life, and Friendship with Tina Turner, which is publishing for the first time in North America on the same day this podcast premieres. At a young age Eddy used to pray he would become Tina's best friend and, years later, through perseverance and ingenuity, he met Ike & Tina Turner when he was only 14 years old and started their fan club. Then he lived through the tumultuous breakup of their marriage and became Tina's personal assistant, confidant, travel companion, and eventually became the person who created her new look as she broke into mega-stardom on her own. 
    His story is, without a doubt, the most honest and intimate access to the private side of this international rock superstar and you will come away loving her even more!

    S2E11 - Blowback - An Interview with Whistleblower Miles Taylor

    S2E11 - Blowback - An Interview with Whistleblower Miles Taylor

    It all started with an anonymous piece in the NY Times in 2018 from a high source inside the Trump administration who revealed publicly what Trump's cabinet members were saying privately - that the President was unstable and unfit for office. While serving in top roles in the Department of Homeland security, Taylor had witnessed shocking acts of corruption that led him, with the support of other high ranking Republicans within the administration, to write the essay and, later, a book about his observations. Now, Miles, under his own name, has published a second book which appeared on the NY Times Bestseller List. We had the opportunity to speak with this conservative patriot and ask about some of the things he saw and why he's so concerned about Trump's, or a facsimile, return to the oval office. We also pressed him on what he does and doesn't like about the new direction of the GOP and the Biden administration.
    It sounds like a sobering episode and much of it is but, you know the Two Guys. They are not going to allow the destruction our of democracy to get in the way of humor and, surprisingly, this serious author blended right in. Anderson Cooper and Kanye West on the Stink list. Why?

    S2E9 - Club 90: The Sisterhood of Sex - A Conversation with Jane Hamilton, Veronica Vera and Robin Leonardi

    S2E9 - Club 90: The Sisterhood of Sex - A Conversation with Jane Hamilton, Veronica Vera and Robin Leonardi

    Five women had no idea they were about to form a pornography sorority — a sisterhood that would change their careers, their lives and eventually, the way much of the public viewed people who work in porn. There was the "superstar" turned mom, Jane Hamilton aka Veronica Hart. The Jewish, artsy, exhibitionist, Annie Sprinkle, who claimed to have had sex with more than 3500 men. The former Girl Scout, Candida Royalle, an aspiring actress who was exiled from ballet at age 15 because she was too curvaceous. Veronica Vera, the girl with the strict Catholic upbringing who had a great sexual curiosity. And Gloria Leonard, the "nice Jewish girl" who had been a Wallstreet stockbroker and ended up taking on Larry Flynt and Bob Guccione as the publisher of her own High Society magazine.
    Join us as we speak to Vera, Jane and Gloria's daughter, Robin, about this "club" and why it was formed as we take a stroll back to 70's porn!

    S2E8 - The Dog Bites Back: An Interview with Dog the Bounty Hunter and Francie Chapman

    S2E8 - The Dog Bites Back: An Interview with Dog the Bounty Hunter and Francie Chapman

    A world EXCLUSIVE 40 minute interview with Duane Chapman, aka Dog the Bounty Hunter, and his wife Francie, (specifically talking about the accusations thrown at Dog) after the couples appearance on a Facebook Live show to promote their upcoming appearance at a church in Washington state.  Alan Nevins (a past but longtime manager of Duane and Beth Chapman), and his co-host, Joey Santos, had lots of questions for the duo about their remarks, especially since the press promoted his outburst as a "homophobic rant" and a threat against failed Bud Light promoter Dylan Mulvaney. The video went viral hitting news outlets across the country. The co-hosts point out that the person who was inferred in the appearance does not identify as gay but as a transgendered woman. Both podcast hosts have their own annoyances with how the press handled the announcement. The interview gets heated on both sides, especially when talking about Christianity vs. “Hypo-Christianity” and how homosexuality is interpreted by the Christian faith and the various mis-interpretations found in the bible itself. The hosts breakdown the Facebook interview piece by piece so that the audience can understand how Duane and Francie’s remarks might have been taken out of context. The “Two Guys” insist that in a world where no one “listens and learns” everyone deserves the chance to at least be heard! 
    Many will find this interview enlightening but certainly will be shocked by what Dog and Francie ultimately say about Dylan Mulvaney and gays. They stand by their faith and are unapologetic for how they want to live their lives and their perspective on the world around them. .

Listening in the Mitten! ,

Look forward to many more podcast to come!

I am an avid listener of Two Guys from Hollywood podcasts. I enjoy the banter between Joey and Alan as much as the eclectic mix of guests. Being friends for decades, you can feel their genuine respect and admiration for one another. The conversations between Joey and Alan, and with their guests, are lively, fun, entertaining and informative.
