Steven Pierce, Matt Mundy, Jason James Richter

HAPPY HOUR FLIX is a podcast all about the movies we love and love to talk about. A nostalgic look at what we grew up watching and how they still impact us today. It's a lot of fun.

On today's episode, hosts Steven Pierce and Matt Mundy chat about one the most beloved films of a generation, FREE WILLY. And sitting down with them today is none other than the troubled whale-lover himself and star of the franchise, Jason James Richter.

Being Richter's first film, they dive deep into many personal experiences, including how he was "discovered", and what was more intimating - the orcas or Michael Madsen? Incredible stories of  security on and off set... and we finally answer the mystery of just what WAS that sheet-cake, and was ketchup a normal condiment in Oregon in the 90's for cake?

As always, we invite you to grab a beverage and enjoy the stories, and reminisce with us. Our friends over at Misguided Spirits help us design and bring to you the perfect cocktail to enjoy alongside all our episodes.

This particular cocktail was designed by mixologist Lea Marie Logan from Belle Reve in NYC, aptly named the FREE WILLY!

Here's how you do it:
pinch of salt
x3 cucumber slices
pinch of mint 3/4 leaves
.5 simple syrup
Muddle
Add 1oz lime
2oz MISGUIDED gin
Top with soda water (preferred, Topo Chico if you've got it)
And finish with x2 "Free Willy" spritz (aromatic spritzer of coconut oil salt water solution)
Then bonus, rim glass with nori dust seaweed

Sit back, relax and enjoy HAPPY HOUR FLIX!



HAPPY HOUR FLIX is produced by James Allerdyce and Lori Kay, and hosted by Steven Pierce and Matt Mundy.
Main Title is by Johnny Mineo.
