Flash Gordon’s Sam J. Jones – IT in the D 506 22:10

22:10

This episode is quite literally the top of my mountain, my crown jewel moment, the summary of every podcast and every Comic Con I have attended. At the Great Lakes Comic-Con , I got to spend the entire weekend with Sam J. Jones himself, better known as Flash Gordon , Quarterback, NY Jets and Savior of the Universe. Growing up, Flash Gordon was on the same level as Star Wars to me, and I was not only star struck, but in awe of what an amazing person Sam Jones is. They always say, “Don’t meet your heroes.”, but in this case, I am so happy I was able to. I spent the entire weekend talking with Sam, but got to record our conversation for about 20 minutes where we talked about Hollywood, Flash Gordon, his appearance in Ted , his family, and life in general. This was bittersweet however, as the founder of Great Lakes Comic-Con, Mike DeSantis , tragically passed away a couple days before the event. I didn’t get to thank him for this opportunity, but I am sure I will one day. RIP Mike. A million thank yous to my producer and co-host Randy Walker who spent hours cutting up 2hrs and 45 minutes of raw footage (because I didn’t know how to work the Zoom mic).…
