Lost & Found in Cleveland, directed by Keith Gerchak and Marisa Guterman, is a love letter to Cleveland told through five residents and the meaningful objects they bring to a fictional, Antiques Roadshow–style TV show. Inspired by Guterman's childhood obsession with the series, the film explores memory, identity, and the stories we attach to the things we keep. Set during the holidays and featuring Jon Lovitz, Martin Sheen, and Dennis Haysbert, it was filmed at iconic spots like Playhouse Square, University Circle, and the West Side Market—making Cleveland the true star.

This episode also dives into the grit of independent filmmaking, highlighting trust, resilience, and creative problem-solving. Keith and Marisa are a true dynamic duo, proving that tough journeys can lead to deeply rewarding results.

Michael Mackie swears there's real magic in living smack-dab in the middle of the map. As an entertainment reporter in Kansas City, he's learned that if you hang around long enough, the famous folks eventually come to you. To this day, he's not entirely sure how he landed interviews with Jennifer Lopez, Samuel L. Jackson, Cameron Diaz, or John Travolta.

In You Have 4 Minutes, Michael pulls back the curtain on the wild world of celebrity interviews—why "The Bionic Woman" herself, Lindsay Wagner, left him starstruck, and why Andrew Dice Clay… well, didn't. Beyond the red carpets and sound bites, he opens up about the tougher chapters of his life: the stroke that blindsided him at 40, his battle with alcoholism, and yes—an entire year without refined sugar.

Honest, funny, and full of heart, this is Michael's story of asking good questions, surviving hard things, and finding joy in unexpected places—right in the middle of the map.
