In this episode of 'Shat the Movies,' we're cranking up the volume and diving into the punk rock chaos of "SLC Punk!" from 1998. Join us as we explore the anarchic adventures of Stevo and Heroin Bob through the conservative streets of Salt Lake City. We'll laugh at the outrageous antics, critique the edgy fashion, and debate whether the film's bold statements about rebellion and conformity still resonate today. It's a raucous trip back to the '90s punk scene you won't want to miss! Plot Summary: "SLC Punk!" (1998) stars Matthew Lillard and Michael Goorjian as Stevo and Heroin Bob, punk rockers in 1980s Salt Lake City. The film explores their rebellion against conservative norms, touching on themes of identity, adulthood, and irony. It combines energetic punk music with poignant moments of self-discovery.

It's that time again! Dusting off one of our early episodes for a remix edition! We're going back to Salt Lake City, Utah in the mid 80s to see what Stevo and Heroin Bob are up to. I really need no excuse to talk about this film again. Our first episode was during the pandemic so it's high time that I review one of my 'foundational' films again. Mikey joined me on this one to talk about our love for Matthew Lillard, the outlandish and amazing fashion, and the countless hilarious scenes and characters we meet along the way.

Dueling reviews keep things interesting. While we can agree that the fashion (that was dope) and music (legendary) are incredible, we both saw this film in different ways. How well does this age over 20 years later? We talk about it. ---Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Jai @jai_stylefactoryIntro & Outro music by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge on Instagram @fashiongrunge and fashiongrunge.comemail us : info@fashiongrunge.com

A few months ago, we had the amazing opportunity to sit down with Michael Goorjian, who played Skittery in Newsies, and pick his brain about hanging out on set, creating character backstory, and making movies that aren't Newsies...technically. The audio on this one is a little bit rough, but the conversation is worth it. Thank you so, so much to Michael for taking the time to chat with us, and to our friend Katy for knowing that he's on Twitter and suggesting we reach out.
For today's episode of "Closer to Free," we are presenting you with a conversation that Jen had with Michael Goorjian, the actor who played Justin Thompson.

What happens when one gets caught up in the fast-paced, ever-evolving world of technology with its plethora of attention-mongering digital noise? Where attention is for sale and fame is the new religion? Journey with Emmy Award-winning actor and director, Michael Goorjian, as we explore the essence of his new novel, What Lies Beyond the Stars. What if technology is a prison and the universe is really alive? How might our lives change if we realize we are divinely connected? And perhaps madness is the doorway and attention is the key to something greater.
Nothing beats a good book. A great fictional story can sweep us up in a make-believe world, blurring the lines of reality and the extraordinary. A great nonfiction book can disseminate wonderful ideas that we can logically digest and grow from. But why limit our lessons to the work of nonfiction? Perhaps the best of all book genres is the highly under appreciated philosophical fiction. Sewing seeds of growth while wearing the disguise of entertainment. When we are wrapped up emotionally in a narrative both sides of our brain can interpret a lesson, and a level of deep growth can occur that is difficult with nonfiction alone. Today’s guest understands this concept well and has written an amazing piece of philosophical fiction that speaks to the collective struggle of our time. He’ll discuss why philosophical fiction is such a great medium for distilling down complex topics, and explain what the whole book writing biz is all about too.
Isn’t it interesting how long storytelling has been a part of human culture? It has always been there as this integral piece of society and culture, and was even around before there was any concept of society or culture. We can use acting and storytelling to entertain; it can take us on a journey and bring out all of our emotions. In it’s more deep form it can also make us think and help us grow as people. It develops our empathy and can help us tackle ideas in an abstract way that we may be too unprepared to face head on. For all these reasons and more, today’s guest, Michael Goorjian, has made storytelling his life’s work. From acting, to directing, to writing, Michael has done it all and done it well.
