Welcome to our podcast miniseries devoted to celebrating the 1988 contemporary classic, action buddy comedy MIDNIGHT RUN, written by George Gallo & directed by Martin Brest. Produced & hosted by Blake Howard & Jen Johans of One Heat Minute Productions & Watch With Jen, respectively, each week, we’ll explore the film we first bonded over when we became friends in 2019 by surfing through an incredible roster of guests from journalists to novelists & beyond who love it as much as we do. Now available wherever you get your pods, each week, you'll find a new installment here & in both the One Heat Minute Productions & Watch With Jen podcast feeds.

As this series starts nearing its conclusion, like Jack & the Duke getting to L.A. by midnight, we want to make sure we have a Happy Ending ahead & this week, we definitely did, thanks to our amazing guests, filmmaker & Light the Fuse co-podcaster Charles Hood & HAPPY ENDINGS star Adam Pally. Both major fans of the film, it was a pleasure to chat with the pair for close to an hour about everything from the video store & HBO era of yesteryear to the alchemy of the actors. Also, Adam Pally gave me the thinnest excuse imaginable to riff about BLACK RAIN, which, if you know anything about me, you know was a total blast. Buckle up, you'll dig it.
