I’ve loved listening to Mr. Figgis and his friend Ali discussing his career and views on anything and everything. Also grabbed his book and the cards on ‘36 Dramatic Situations’ after listening to them break down how they can help you creatively. I just hope they make another series of podcasts sometime in the future.

A candid, veteran filmmaker-focused conversation that blends industry storytelling with practical craft insights. Episodes center on AI's impact on Hollywood, Oscar season commentary, editing and sound design, and immersive behind-the-scenes anecdotes from major projects. Listeners likely appreciate unflinching honesty, technical depth, and long-form storytelling from a director's perspective, often interwoven with personal memory and reflections on legacy. A standout aspect is the mix of concrete production detail with philosophical questions about creativity and human artistry in the face of advancing technology and industry pressures.
