    Mike Rowe and Nathan Fillion are two of my all-time favorite celebrities, but I never imagined they were neighbors or that I'd see them chatting on a podcast together. This is awesome.

    My mom and dad and I were in NYC for the Bi-Centennial, 1976 (from the Midwest). On a bus and mom and dad were trying to figure out where to get off. Some woman overheard them and said "just follow me". After a bit more of a ride she said "Okay - get off here." Then she walked us down a couple of blocks and pointed down the cross street. "Go down two more blocks and it'll be on the left - you'll see the signs.
    My mom was so grateful "Thank you so much - and what a blessing that this was just the way you were going!"
    "Oh, no ma'am. My stop was two stops ago." And she turned around and left.

    They’re so right about New York. I was visiting in 2001 (just a few weeks before the twin towers fell 😢) and I happen to get off at the wrong subway stop. I was trying to figure out my tourist map and how to get where I was going, and a man wearing clothes that probably would have cost a couple months of my wages at the time stopped, and rather than show me the complicated directions on the map, he turned around and said “just follow me.” He walked with me three blocks (3 of those super long, east-west NYC blocks!) in the opposite direction, pointed up the street and said “Do you see that bright neon sign? That’s right next to where you’re going.” He turned back around in his very expensive suit, shoes and briefcase and disappeared back down the way we’d come.
    💕 Loved NY at that time. 💕

      *NEVER* meet those you idol from TV as they may really disappoint and then you have lost something great in your life.
      Admired Mike Rowe until he appeared before a Congress hearing about jobs because he is now a world expert because he made a TV show about jobs. His "expert" comment was less than stellar and he allowed his political bias to cloud his TV show "expertise." Kind of like how a certain Orange 🤡 thinks they are an expert on *everything* because that long gone artificial show wasn't real but the contrived faux ratings still ring as real in the 🤡s vacious empty and numb skull.

      People really don't get that courage gets easier every time you do it, do they?? I mean, it's always terrifying, but that it *is* terrifying is somehow less terrifying when you know you've survived that level of terror before. It really is true that very few things in life are fatal, regardless of how ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN one is that one just can't stand the terror one more second. And that's without having done even one of Mike Rowe's 'Dirty Jobs'. You go for it with both hands - a stranger on the other side believes that whether you nail it or not, you're going to end up with something fabulous ❤❤❤

    That’s something I don’t hear people talk about much - people in NYC are SO helpful when you're lost. So much so, that if you stop and take a peek at one of those small explore NYC books or google maps on your phone, you have to do it surreptitiously because it will be seconds, literally seconds, before someone stops and asks if you need help finding a place. When I took my daughter there and I told her this she did not believe me. Later we were on a subway platform both peering down at my phone, trying to figure out what side we are supposed to be on. An an older gentleman with a strong Jamaican accent showed us how we had to walk over a walkway that we hadn’t even noticed. Not told us, he insisted on physically showing us. It’s a complicated but magical place.

    I could listen to these two tell stories all night. Such an entertaining pair. Mike is still my Hollywood boyfriend though even though he doesn't know it hahahah.

    Damn I’m so glad to hear you guys are good friends. I don’t watch abc shows but I’m glad Nathan is still getting work in this weird time for actors right now
