This week Kyle & Reed do something completely different. We sat down with superstar Maxwell Acee Donovan to do a quick “Ask A Gen Z” segment (wherein we see if Homicide: Life On The Street is even remotely relevant to younger peeps) and we were SO blown away by his awesomeness…we had to make a whole episode!
Our chat with the star of “That ‘90’s Show” and the upcoming “The Better Sister” covers all things Homicide…but we get way into The Love Boat, Dinosaurs, The Mormon Jackson 5, and what’s really going on beneath the Denver airport…all with an Australian accent and a quick trip to Zabars. Enjoy!
We know there are a lot of you out there who know a heck of a lot about Homicide: Life On The Street! If there is anything we missed, or if you have questions you’d like addressed on future episodes, hit us up at [email protected] with the episode title in the subject line.
