In the final interview for USUK for the foreseeable future Tom speaks to our good friend Shelley Moench-Kelly (see her previous interview based on "Here's Your Pill Kitten") The world is changing, quickly too and we have to work hard to keep up. Shelley talks to Tom about her new  book Lift which was co-authored by Shelley, Faisal Hoque and Jeff Wuorio. Lift was a New York Times bestseller because it hits a home run when it comes to adapting to life as we know it now and coming out on top. I want to apologise for the lateness of this episode release. With is being our last interview I was holding it emotionally hostage.

Joining AL as a co-host today is our good friend George Lugo as we speak to NASCAR Xfinity Racing driver Jesse Iwuji. The way in which the British fans and American fans absorb motorsport are 2 completely different vibes. We are here to speak to Jesse to find out where he fits into all of this. Jesse has his own team Jesse Iwuji Racing which isn't like any normal sports team. You see Jesse is a serving officer in the US Naval Reserves and he offers opportunities for veterans. He is a pioneer in that he still serves his country as a Lieutenant Commander, runs his own businesses to fund his own team that exists to help others in the fight for diversity, equity, and inclusion. Jesse tells us about the horrid conditions inside the car while he's racing and why he puts himself through it all. We also talk about Jesse's own personal car collection which leaves George drooling.  While listening to this please check out Jesse's website and give this guy some support, we need more guys like him in sport! - https://www.jesseiwuji.com/ 

While AL is away Tom will absolutely play, joining the show in his stead is friend of USUK, Andy Imhof. Today they are speaking to actress Mariah Iman Wilson, who is here to tell us her story. From the first moment Mariah hit the stage, she knew that this was what she wanted to do with a huge passion. From being horribly mis-cast in a Grease play to working with Hugh Laurie in House, appearing on Drunk History and even working with a stellar cast that included Beyonce in Dreamgirls, Mariah has a heck of a story to tell us. Mariah is now staring in the remake of Saved By The Bell, which sparks a discussion. If you could remake any TV show from the past what would you do?  Thank you Mariah form coming on the show, you were a fantastic guest and we would welcome you back anytime!

AL and Tom are here to speak to young film-maker, writer, producer and actor Jared Becker who is joining us to talk about hi career so far. BUT FIRST....We have that final episode of "The Book of The Mandalorian" to discuss (this was recorded a couple of weeks ago) What did you think about it? AL has got a few things to say so, spoilers will be included in this episode. Jared Becker is a film-maker that has created award winning content, but rather than bask in any kind of glory he is tireless in his efforts to create his next new project. What does it mean to Jared to be on-set making something that he has conceived with his mind? How does Jared cope with having a mind that is constantly coming up with ideas? Plus so, so much more. We really get to know Jared in, something that turned into a really natural conversation about the world of media and how we consume it. Jared's latest flick, "Sorry For My Loss" is not only award winning for being a great piece of film, it is beautifully scored too. The song "Goodbye" won awards too! We were going to include the music in the podcast (Thank you Jared for sending the raw file) However instead, I will share the link here so you can find Jared, subscribe and follow his progress. Please take a look here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsLETo7fwGI Thank you Jared you were a fantastic guest and the offer still stands, we can 100% trade you in for Bruno!! :)

AL and Tom bring you some very special guests this week. You may have seen them on TikTok as they have gone viral multiple times. We give you Adam and the Metal Hawks! You may have seen lead singer Adam Ezegelian rocking out to Twisted Sister on American Idol. He has also been called the new Jack Black and has even been feature on a video with Jack acknowledging this on TikTok. That aside, these guys rock in their own right. Their music is inspired, their charisma is free flowing and they are just naturally cool guys. We chat about the unbelievable journey that they have been on and we ask Adam what its like to have Jack Black recognise you as a human being. We also get an exclusive as a new band member is announced. Seriously, we were so impressed with these guys and how they hold themselves. We would love to bring them back onto the show when their album is out. Nice meeting you guys, good luck with everything!

AL and Moose are joined my special guest Magik Ash. He was supposed to be on the show last week but ended up in hospital. He has risen from the dead though and was gracious enough to join us for some fun stories, hilarious games and light hearted banter. We start off by sharing some fun trending stories. We say fun, but the 1st story involves a murder over someone mistakenly putting mayonnaise on a burger, followed up by a good ole book burning in America... sheesh! Still though we have the news that Grand Theft Auto 6 has been confirmed by Rockstar but....does anyone care anymore? We have another round of Butt-Chug Island, where 3 more items get sent on a one-way mission to get f***ed after a healthy debate though of course. This show has a lot of hilarity plus some gross salad cream on bourbon biscuit action!!

AL and Tom sit and chat to horror movie legend Ken Foree. If you are a fan of horror movies the chances are that you know who Ken Foree is! We discuss Ken's journey up to and beyond his appearance on 1978's Dawn of the Dead. Including one of his most iconic scenes. Ken talks to us about the hairy situation behind the 2004 Dawn of the Dead remake, his absolute love for Sean of the Dead and how he got to meet Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg (which is a delightful story) AL compares Ken to 'Forest Gump' as he has so many amazing stories to tell and we absolutely loved hearing them. In true USUK style this episode goes from being an interview to a casual conversation which was natural, fun and was very enjoyable to record. Thank you Ken it was an honour to talk to you!

Welcome to our 5th outing as a live Thors Kin show which Moose called "F**k the Internet" simply because his internet sucks balls.

How he got into the game, how have things changed with the industry since he began, what are the most interesting I.Ps that he has worked on, what would he love to work on in the future and we generally geek out with a king in the world of character design. We have questions from the listeners too. One of the highlighted ones being "who is your favourite character from Teen Titans GO!?" You will have to listen to the episode to find out the answers. Thank you for chatting to us Chris, it was a real pleasure speaking to you. Of course you are welcome back anytime. What a guest!!

Butt-Chug Island is back where the group choose 3 things to send on a one-way trip through a portal to our imaginary island. "Mooses Quizical, Weekly Quiz...or Whatever" is back. But this time it's a guess of what was Googled the most? This show is a lot of fun and Moose did a fantastic job of keeping things chill because that Tom Bruno is a bit of a scamp!

Hailing from Limerick, Ireland, magician Steve Spade joins AL and Tom for an hour of spellbinding chat. Steve is a master of many forms of magic. Whether it be close up street magic or escapism, pulling off daring and sometimes dangerous stunts that have caught the eyes of the Irish public. He has performed many times on TV and for a bunch of celebrities including Mike Tyson. Alll of this has won him the affectionate nickname "Ireland's answer to Houdini"  This leaves AL and Tom with a great opportunity to try and understand the inner workings of magic and Steve is here to give us some great inside stories and lessons he has learned. How does someone become a magician? What happens when something goes wrong? How have things like YouTube and TikTok changed things? and what is the perfect way to deal with a heckler? and who were Steve's inspirations growing up? It's all here. Steve, genuinely, it was a pleasure. we loved chatting to you. Now that the ice is well and truly broken, we'd love to have you back sometime. Good luck in the future sir! - AL
