New York Magazine called it “The Most Memorable Advertisement Ever”.
FedEx’s “Fast Paced World” ad played a large part in launching our guest into icon status in 1980s pop culture.

Sandy Duncan’s crotch? Uh oh..
Ya know, it was actually Moschitta who brought it up. We were on our best behavior!
Listening right now. I still can’t believe that we actually spoke to him. I hope everyone enjoys the interview as much as I did.
Remember, if it doesn’t say Micro Machines, it’s not the real thing!!!
I guess Rosie O’Donnell will never play Peter Pan. She’d have the same crotch issues.
Oof! #RosieODonnellsCrotch. Worst hashtag ever
Those interested punk new wave band Sandy Duncan’s Crotch is opening for The Cure this summer.
Yeah this interview was a complete blast.

*ahem*
So many awesome moments in this interview!
I loved that John recounted his times on Pyramid, all the Micro Machines ads and recording Transformers: The Movie alongside all of those megastars (Yes, Judd Nelson was HUGE back then!). One of the best SCOOPs ever!! Great job, gentlemen!
