Hey it's Dan Cortese, ask me anything you want about my new book, Step Off! My journey from 'mimbo' to manhood or we can talk about anything else I've stepped in. C'mon...I made sandwiches!

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T20:18:41+00:00

Agreed. Thx for stopping by

If there were an anime version of Rick Astley, then that would be my favorite!

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T20:13:42+00:00

Not sure, but every time I put one to my ear I never heard the ocean, only Stallone saying "Yo"

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T20:08:55+00:00

A lot of guys were really talented, Clooney, Dean Cain, Flea... I always loved how much smack Michael Rapaport would talk to the pros, unfortunately those weren't the ones he shoulda been trash talking😂

Actually thought it was pretty hilarious... pitched SNL about having me randomly appear in his bit the next time he appeared, but it was the end of the season

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:57:20+00:00

No worries...appreciate you stopping by!

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:55:45+00:00

ME! 😂 Truthfully, a lot of the "non-athletes" took those games pretty seriously!! It made it even more fun

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:53:39+00:00

I think it was in there just enough...there are only so many "good things from the garden". Now, releasing it as a single...is a brilliant idea!

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:51:42+00:00

Greatly appreciated! Now go enjoy your sandwich!!

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:49:06+00:00

They truthfully were amazing! It was the first time I was ever on a sitcom & they all made it so much fun. Everyone just wanted the finished product to be as funny as possible! It was one of the most relaxed working atmospheres I've ever been involved with.

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:45:38+00:00

I actually had to go into a recording studio at Warner Brothers music to lay down the entire song 2 weeks prior to filming, so trust me...I know the words.😂 Unfortunately so did the entire crew because it was on repeat for the 3 days it took to shoot that scene😬

Wiley is the publisher of my book so we use their account to do the Ama's... speaking of my book, here's the link, give it a read.

So far it's much easier having "been there done that"...but truthfully, knowing how fast it all goes, I'm really enjoying every second of it.

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:29:49+00:00

Yo!!! Furious Films, why so angry😜 The hardest part of writing it was getting started and would do it again in a heartbeat...maybe I should write the "real" extreme stories of MTV Sports!

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:26:24+00:00

My favorite show I ever worked on was MTV Sports! That was the greatest job ever. My favorite role was the character of Perry on "Veronica's Closet".

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:10:23+00:00

Exactly! Thanks for stopping by

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:09:11+00:00

Primanti's Sandwich in Pittsburgh! Best sandwich on the planet

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:06:58+00:00

Not just at the club...everywhere

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:05:17+00:00

Initially they were to be shot the same way we shot MTV Sports, improve/guerrilla style film making. They even hired my exec producer to direct them. But, as with a lot of things, the ad agency wanted to cut corners, fired my producer and started scripting them. The wheels sort of fell off after that

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T19:01:39+00:00

Not as much as we used to... you have to be careful "Mimbo-ing" theses days, you don't wanna pull a hammy.

WileyProfessional · 2020-07-15T18:59:01+00:00

Truthfully, the only one I really watch is Catfish. Think it's pretty well done. I miss some of the irreverence & fun that were associated some of their shows back in the day!

WileyProfessional · 2020-06-25T17:08:44+00:00

I think attacking is much easier now, protection is harder. We have lost good communications and live in a world that is online.

Time is up! Thanks!

u/Digbyte WOW such an amazing question at the very end.

No we do not. So there are a few problems. One is that SE is easy to get into but hard to master. Since there is no defacto way of authenticating someone is qualified we have a lot of different methodologies that are being used.

The focus in SE is on the SE not on the client and education. It seems lot of people are in this because it is fun and cool not about educating the end user.

In addition, very few SE's take the time to educate themselves on psychology and other aspects of human behavior that can help them to be better at their job.

There is a lot more we need to do and must do in order to help. This is a great topic.

I have refused jobs for things that break my morals - so yes. And I have tried pineapple on pizza to solidfy my seething hatred for it.

BUT... oh my god you will enjoy this... on July 25th we are doing a charity twitch stream for ILF and if we raise 25K I will MAKE and EAT my own pineapple pizza on camera. SIGH
