What a nice man!

We have Thom Harp on the show to talk movies, pitches and being nice.

We talk persistence, writing what you know and getting the best out of your team.

Thom describes the frustrations of years of pushing, how he made the most of the Covid opportunity by listening to sensible advice and the joy of working in a job you love.

A really fun, informative and engaging chat.

We have the impressive Courtney Lilly on the show.

He talks about the state of Hollywood, being in the same storm but a different boat and the luck it takes to succeed.

We hear about his start as a journalist, showrunning on a show created by someone else and the importance of Morpheus.

Why Black-ish was a success, talented actors over good writing and the importance and value of diversity.

A fascinating and insightful interview full of self-reflection, nuggets of wisdom and candour.

Episode 150 and we have a legend on. It’s David Zucker, he of The Naked Gun and Airplane fame.

He is as funny and witty and irreverent as you would hope he would be.

David tells us the story of how he got Airplane made, we talk about the puns of it all and why he doesn’t like the new Naked Gun movie.

He talks about spoofs, his new project the Star of Malta and the self-confidence to move to Hollywood.

We hear about when he was king of Hollywood, how they tricked the DGA into letting three of them direct a movie and his new course - Master Crash - https://mastercrash.kit.com/join

A fittingly insightful conversation for episode 150 with a true Hollywood legend.
