I wish I could have met @joshruben.bsky.social at Eerie Horror Fest but I was working. My best friend got me his autograph and really just made my week

A Wounded Fawn is one of my favorite movies and was my introduction to Josh Ruben so I’m cherishing this and so thankful for my friend ❤️

So, the secret is out. Tonight I will not be in the backyard, but outside the trailer crushing a few beers with Joe Bob & Darcy as we watch a terribly maligned film I hope to turn y'all on to the greatness of. Or just watch me get dunked on by Joe Bob. Both are fun! Such a huge honor! I'm chuffed!
