  • Danielle Nicolet Interview + Long Time Listener Review
    Mar 24 2026

    Mike and Toy are back with their first episode after the rebrand, and it is a big one. The pair reviewed the upcoming release from AMC's ALLBLK, "Long Time Listener," and interviewed director Danielle Nicolet (The Flash, Central Intelligence).

    This was Nicolet's feature directorial debut, so we talked about her transition behind the camera- the good and the bad. At the end, we got into some less movie-related questions- like, what flavor she would be if she had to choose.

    This was a spoiler-free review since the movie isn't out yet, but we'll be back with a deeper dive after the movie premieres on ALLBLK on April 2nd. It's hard to do a spoiler-free review of a murder mystery, but we promise we didn't give anything away.
