Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Audible | YouTube

In this special episode, I share my experience at this year’s Heartland Film Festival (HIFF34) before playing two filmmaker interviews I conducted. In the first interview, I chat with director/editor/writer Mark Hoffman and producer Alyssa Roehrenbeck about their film A Simple Machine. Then, I talk with director/cinematographer/writer Cameron Mitchell and co-writer David Mitchell about their documentary, Disposable Humanity.
