Funny Encounters with Miguel McKenna
Amer Rez is back with filmmaker and comedian Miguel McKenna for a hilariously unfiltered, free-flowing conversation recorded live right outside the M Hotel. They bypass the usual podcast pleasantries and dive straight into a chaotic blend of deep-cut cinema and everyday absurdities. Whether they are breaking down the physical mechanics of swimming and the realities of dealing with uneven leg lengths, or debating the logistics of balancing dinner timelines with dating in your thirties, the chemistry is fast, loose, and completely authentic.For the film buffs, Miguel delivers his definitive, non-negotiable list of 10/10 cinematic masterpieces—trading thoughts on everything from *The Elephant Man* and *Zodiac* to the atomic-age terror of the 1951 classic *The Day the Earth Stood Still*. The conversation spins wildly from high-brow movie analysis into the surreal, touching on UFO disclosures, corporate conspiracy theories hidden inside *Monsters, Inc.*, and a gold-tier workplace story involving a legendary Lebanese coworker who claims to be a national karaoke champion for his rendition of Prince’s *Purple Rain*. It’s a hilarious, fast-paced hour of sharp commentary and great storytelling that feels exactly like catching up with your funniest friends.
