Ep. 121 Best 4th of July Ever; Miles Connor in Nashville Welcome to this mid-summer episode of the Modern Moron. I’m so excited to share the conversation I had with a young musician named Miles Connor. He’s currently a student at Belmont University in Nashville Tennessee and was born and raised in the Dallas Texas area. H’s e’s a bit of an old soul in that he was brought up with a lot of classic rock artists from the 60’s and 70’s. I believe his first instrument was the guitar but his father was and is an accomplished musician and toured professionally back...

Hi… I have not been taking our relationship very seriously have I. I’m sorry… I haven’t called, haven’t written, you think I haven’t even been thinking about you probably. Well that’s not true. If fact this is the 4th attempt at episode number 120. I can’t tell why I haven’t been producing, creating, whatever this is and at the same time I have a few really important-ish reasons why I haven’t but we’ll talk about that later… maybe. My guest is my good friend Larry Dorf. I would consider him a “super friend” isn’t that in like the...

Happy Holidays from The Modern Moron recorded this day, the 25th of November, 2022. It’s Black Friday and there’s no place I would rather NOT be than a mall, A Walmart, a Best Buy or an Amazon. Also, I literally got back from the grocery store and I thought I was going to have to take out a Home Equity Loan. I just paid over $5 for a dozen eggs. What the ever-loving- @##$%? At what point is it going to be …. That’ll b e a dollar…. Another dollar…. Okay, two for one. Thanks Grandpa Joe… for all the inflation. It’s your...

Welcome to another episode of The Modern Moron… my guest is producer, writer, actor Larry Dorf, yes, that Larry Dorf. We have a very light early fall chat about a few subjects, namely: We talk a little about some of the Modern Moron’s more successful shows, one being on Phil Hendrie and his mastery of deception with his characters improvising with each other and his work on various animation projects from King of the Hill to Rick and Morty. I refer to a story Larry told about an audition he had where he was being asked to play NBA legend Larry Bird’s father, a...

Welcome to another episode of the Modern Moron dated October 10th 2022, which means we’ll be talking about events from at least two months ago. I’m going to try something new in that I’m not spending so much time on this episode. My guest is the Senator which is like Conan O’brien saying his guest is Andy Richter, but he brings up a couple of things with no real background or insight or explanation. He just saw a show for 30 seconds which is more than enough to have an opinion about, whereas I take the due diligence of watching for at least 5 minutes. We recorded on...

A lot more God talk in this one people, which you may or may not be into. A lot of Philosophical and theological perspectives on God, with a capital G. We continue our conversation with a very interesting Seminarian who has been studying not only theology but philosophy as well so he use big words, make brain thing hurtey. This recording dates back to August of 2022 and I’m just now getting to it… my friend the Seminarian was in a summer program of Chaplaincy at the hospital where I do some volunteer work, we’ve had some interesting conversations and I finally connected...

Okay, the Moron doesn’t seem so moronic in this episode… well, I do, but we really have some divine inspirations in this episode. My guest is a real live Seminarian in the Catholic Church. Yes, THE Catholic church, not one of the knock offs. He’s been pursuing his coronation… that’s not right… ordination! That’s what I was looking for… This conversation is all over the place, and I have to take responsibility for that. If I get him back I really need to try and keep my questions more focused. And because we are so all over the place,...

Thank you for tuning in to another episode of the Modern Moron… I did say I have an episode coming with a seminarian in the Catholic church, and I do. This episode is the last half of my previous conversation with the Senator when I dropped out of it because I felt the need to address some science issues that we seem to be ignoring right now that place the economy as more important that the planet we live on and the resources that are becoming more rapidly scarce, namely water and oxygen. This conversation contains the beautiful faux paux from the Senator when he cannot...

Half cocked, half informed, full moron. Seriously, the things we talk about and the half-cocked opinions we spout are really so misinformed that I would like to ask you a favor. My favor is that you half listen but don’t really pay attention. Is that possible? Listen for one of us to mispronounce something or to say something completely off base but I don’t want you to really pay attention. If you could… picture us both sitting on a front porch in a couple of rocking chairs. That’s the best setting for this conversation. Can you do that? ...
info_outlineGame of Thrones? I say Game of Jones… it’s old news that People need a replacement for that monumental show. Granted there is a prequel, called “House of Dragons” which takes place thousands of years before Game of Thrones took place which means what exactly? Their swords don’t get wifi? House of Dragons is due out in 2022! Are you kidding me? What are we supposed to do until then, read a book? Fans of the show need something now. What will be its replacement? I’m sure there are more, but a couple of shows that are vying for the throne are The Mandelorian on Disney Plus… I don't’ have disney plus… yet, and “The Witcher” on Netflix. I did try to watch the first episode of The Wticher just to see what’s up. More importantly I ask my OP to take a look at the first episode to see what she thinks as a die hard Game of Thrones fan. We discuss The Witcher, it’s British star Henry Cavill who also played the latest Superman and is pretty easy on the eyes according to my OP. We talk up the Latest Star Wars film which is now months old and that we are both big fans of Adam Driver who was fantastic last year in Spike Lee’s “Black Klansman” and this year he is up for an Oscar in his performance in Marriage Story on Netflix, which I cannot bring myself to watch because it’s seems to heartbreaking.
Oh yeah, the rendition of the Game of Thrones Theme you’re hearing in the background is from the folks at Fender Guitars. They pooled together Tom Morello from Rage Against the Machine, Scott Ian from Anthrax, Nuno Bettencourt from Extreme, the composer of the shows theme Ramin Djawadi, the show’s creator, Dan Weill and even country star Brad Paisley...and if you think Brad Paisley can’t rock out on a Fender Telecaster, this will prove you wrong. A link to the video is at the bottom.
