Our beloved colleague Dave McKenna tells good stories. He’s done a lot of cool shit, met many weird people in weird ways, and had his run-ins with the law. And after selfishly squirreling all his stories away in Slack and our brains for years, we’ve realized we have a societal obligation to share.
In this episode, Dave recounts how his friend went to Hollywood and suddenly all the worst minor characters on TV shows were named “McKenna.”
