Summary

Adam got bit by a venomous spider. Not kidding, although I think he's being a baby about the whole thing.

Director and visual effects artist Michael Gracey stops by and tells us how he and Hugh Jackman bullshitted their way on a Lipton ice tea commercial, How he created the theatrical reality for the movie, The Greatest Showman and his new project the Pink documentary now on Amazon, All I Know So Far.

Phil could not play the trumpet in the school recital because he got punched in the face the day before. Phil couldn't blow.
