Podcaster/comedian extraordinaire Sam Petersen (Confessions of the Idiots) joins Mish and and Zach this week to discuss Arabian Nights! Which went for 4 hours (including ads).Arabian Nights is an American/British mini series released in 2000, directed by Steve Barron. A sultan by the name of Shahryah (Dougray Scott) is super paranoid and angry because his ex-wife tried to kill him a while back. Because of this, Shahryah hates women. He decided he is going to marry a woman from the harem and kill her the morning after their wedding as a payback to all women for being murderous and man-hating. After being informed of Shahryah's vengeful plan, his chosen wife Sheherazade (Mili Avital) comes up with a genius plan She decides that once they are married, she will tell her new husband a series of enthralling stories (complete with morals and values and all of that good stuff) that are so good he won't want to kill her.John Leguizamo plays two characters - Genie of the Ring and Genie of the Lamp. Both characters grant wishes and have magical powers, but one of them floats and the other wears a fat suit.Follow Sam on instagram and twitter - @confessionsoftheidiots and @sampetersen91 (instagram), @mrsammyp (twitter).Follow Mish on instagram and twitter - @mishwittrupFollow Zach on Instagram and twitter - @zacharyruane Hosted on Acast.
