Great host, great guests, and an essential peak inside Hollywood. Particularly enjoyed the Tony Sella episode.
Yikes, Kevin, you spend WAY TOO MUCH TIME talking and not letting THE GUEST, who is the reason we podcast listers are LISTENING, get a word in edgewise. This is an all-too-common pitfall of podcast hosts. Far better: ask good brief questions then shut up and let the GUEST talk.
Kevin’s way of conversing and asking questions of his guests reveals the most insightful parts of these filmmakers’ psyches. His love for the crafts of writing, producing, directing, acting and marketing bring us inside the heads of industry titans and all stars. Love love love this podcast.
