On the Beat with Wolfman Mac

At the 2011 Motor City Comic Con, I had the pleasure of talking to Wolfman Mac, host of Wolfman Mac's Chiller Drive-In (formerly known as Nightmare SINema).  You can catch Chiller Drive-in every Saturday night at 10 pm on RTV-The Retro Television Network.
According to legend, Wolfman Mac has been around since the 1930's.  He searched for years for "an outlet for his love of B movies and hackneyed acting".  Then one day, he found an abandoned drive-in and met Boney Bob.  To read the rest of the story (and for a ton of more stuff), check out Wolfman Mac's Chiller Drive-In site.
Wolfman Mac has a huge following in the Detroit area, but his fandom stretches across the country, too.  The Chiller Drive-In booth was one of the most popular attractions at the MCCC.  Fans couldn't get enough of Wolfman and his show mates like Torg, Morbid Melvin, Son of Froggy and the rest.
Like last year when I met the Ghoul, I was excited about meeting Wolfman Mac.  He is a throwback to great tv I watched growing up, but he is connected to today's audience.  I could watch shows like this all day long (sometimes I actually do).
Wolfman Mac was kind enough to give me a few minutes of his time for a quick interview.  I really appreciate his time and consideration.  I hope to see him and his crew next year.  Until then, I will continue to enjoy his work online and on tv.

On the Beat Rachael Adams at the 2012 MCCC

At the Motor City Comic Con in previous years, we interviewed local legends The Ghoul and Wolfman Mac.  This year, we spoke to another Detroit legend, Rachael Adams (often billed as Rachael Adams of Detroit) .
Dubbed "the face of Detroit" and listed on Maxim's list of hometown hotties for Michigan, Rachael is much more than just a pretty face.  She is a fitness and figure competitor, a model, a spokesperson, an actress and more.  For Rachael, "more" has always been the key.  As you will hear in the interview below, she is always looking to do more.
One thing she will be doing is acting in Bruin Lake, which will be filmed in Michigan later this year.  Another project is The Big Play, a hockey movie filming in Detroit later this year.  Listen carefully in the interview for a secret scoop.  She is also excited about Mimesis, a horror movie in which she played two roles, which should be released later this year or early 2012.
In her quest to be the ultimate pin up girl, she is a firm believer in charity, doing at least one charity event monthly.  She is the official ambassador for the Ride For Autism.
Did I mention she played basketball in high school (and you'll never guess why, but you will find out in the interview)?  Did I mention she graduated from Michigan (Go Blue)?  Did I mention she placed first in a Michigan Powerlifting Competition?  Yes, she did all that and more.
We talked about all of the above and a lot more in this fun interview.  Actually, looking back, I can't believe how much we covered, but why would I be surprised.  As I wrote earlier, Rachael is all about "more".
Meeting Rachael was a blast.  I am quite sure we will be seeing a lot more of Rachael in the future.  I just hope Johngy's Beat gets to talk to her again.  I am sure she will have a lot more updates by then.
After you watch the interview below, check out RachaelAdamsofDetroit.com and the Rachael Adams Facebook page to learn more about this multi-talented lady.  Also, to get updates on her movie projects, you  can go to the Mimesis Facebook page, the Bruin Lake Facebook page and The Big Play Facebook page.  Finally, let's all follow Rachael's example and go to RideforAutism.com.
