America's Favorite Villain Is Finally The Good Guy | Neal McDonough #437 | The Way I Heard It

It’s possible, I guess, that somebody somewhere doesn’t like Neal McDonough. Maybe a few actors, who realized they were overmatched and felt small in his presence, or maybe those producers and network executives who got angry when he refused to make out with actresses, thereby screwing up their movie. But I seriously doubt that anyone who matters would have a problem with this man. Which is why he’s back on the podcast and always welcome to return whenever he’s in the neighborhood. #podcast #movie #america See The Last Rodeo in theaters May 23, 2025: https://www.angel.com/movies/last-rodeo A special thanks to: Knobel Tennessee Whiskey—Try one of four delicious flavors: https://knobelspirits.com Watch the first episode of People You Should Know: https://bit.ly/PYSKEpisode1 Subscribe to my channel:    / @therealmikerowe   Subscribe to my new shorts channel for those of you with a short attention span:    / @therealmikeroweshorts   I have a new show!
