What do the NBA, the Chicago Bulls, and Michael Jordan all have in common? Iconic storytelling, brought to life by Jason Hehir, the director of The Last Dance—a documentary miniseries that became a cultural phenomenon during the early months of the Covid lockdown. In this conversation, Franklin and Kate dive deep with Jason to uncover how he got Michael Jordan to finally open up, the parallels between hip-hop and the NBA's meteoric rise to global fame, and the art of humanizing larger-than-life sports legends. They also discuss Jason's unique approach to portraying mythic figures, handling critique from none other than Ken Burns, and the challenge of crafting a hit documentary while the world is already watching your hit documentary.Questions?

Award winning documentary filmmaker Jason Hehir, who directed “The Last Dance” about Michael Jordan and the Bulls, talks about his newest Netflix documentary “Return of the King: The Fall and Rise of Elvis Presley” and Presley's tribute to MLK and RFK during his 1968 comeback special.

Gurdip, Ryan, Olivia, Bec and Justin discuss at length the new Netflix documentary directed by acclaimed sports doc filmmaker Jason Hehir, "Return of the King: The Fall and Rise of Elvis Presley," purportedly about the making of the 1968 Comeback Special. Following in the wake of the special's prominence in Baz Luhrmann's 2022 biopic and the Paramount Plus documentary "Reinventing Elvis," the gang is surprised to learn this is an unchallenging, conventional retelling of Elvis' life story leading up to 1968 intended for the most casual of potential viewers. There's a few new bits of footage, thoughtful contributions from the small group of talking heads and a fairly well-constructed first half, but the TCBCast crew's smaller grievances about certain inaccuracies, exclusions or lack of nuance begin to pile up around the midpoint until the whole thing topples over in its coverage of the special itself, culminating in an outburst over the way the film handles the special's iconic finale. So, the crew all went back to rewatch the original 1968 broadcast version of "Singer Presents Elvis" - complete with original sponsor advertisements - which we have not revisited on TCBCast properly since 2018, and reflect on both the special itself, the incredible work of its extremely under-recognized crew who made it possible for Elvis to shine, and whether the documentary captures what was so great about the NBC special in a way that is useful or insightful. "Return of the King" is streaming via Netflix, the 50th anniversary version of the "Comeback" Special is available on Apple TV or purchasable on digital distribution platforms, and an original broadcast version of the special, intact with Singer Sewing Company commercials, has also been made available on the Internet Archive. The video clip we mention near the end of the show is viewable on EAP Society's YouTube channel. If you enjoy TCBCast, please consider supporting us with a donation at Patreon.com/TCBCast. Your support allows us to continue to provide thoughtful, provocative, challenging and well-researched perspectives on Elvis's career, his peers and influences, and his cultural impact and legacy.

In 1989, a horrible murder that was reported and investigated as a carjacking gone wrong sparked a national outcry. But it was ultimately revealed to be false story and caused tremendous hurt in an already marginalized community.

The Game Changing Attorney Podcast is for leaders ready to level up. For the passionate and engaged. The peak performer. Tenacious fighter. Creative connector. Industry disruptor. Game changer. For you. Today we look back at some of the most inspiring and insightful conversations this year — so far. We showcase leaders with long-term vision, the courage to stand their ground, and prevail in the face of extreme adversity. We hear from best-selling authors, an Emmy-award-winning director, and a top-performing attorney. Learn from their stories. No Excuses Leadership — and the pressure that comes with it — is a privilege. But getting it right can be a challenge. Michael Mogill built Crisp on the solid foundations of positive urgency, accountability, integrity, and transparency. His advice? Shed secrets. Hide nothing. Help others. Take an honest and accountable look within. Identify opportunities to grow. Andre Norman transformed his prison sentence into a Harvard fellowship and is on a mission to end mass incarceration. To get to where they are, both Michael and Andre had to dig deep within themselves and shift both internal and external worldviews. It was not easy. The payoff — building something of value that no one can take from them — is well worth the price of admission. Clear Communication Clear, direct, and honest. Communication is our most effective tool, and to be effective, it must be honed often. When over half of all marriages end, divorce attorney Laura Wasser sees miscommunication as the root cause. To build a lasting partnership, she advises establishing good communication habits in the good times to get through the bad — and when dissolving the relationship is inevitable, she helps smooth the process. Fear of Failure A blessing and a curse. The fear of failure is the fuel of humans who become legends. Emmy-winning director Jason Hehir equates the greats like Michael Jordan and Andre the Giant to sharks — always facing forward. Jason faces a unique challenge: getting the greats to pause, look back at all they have accomplished, and be proud of how far they've come. As you build your firm, remember to look around once in a while. The cure for failure is persistence — and perspective. As Dorie Clark, best-selling author, notes: When we try to take our firms and businesses to places that we've never been, it can feel scary and our expectations can be way off. Law firm owners can point to metrics like revenue growth to set expectations, but they may not be correct. Models and examples of successful firms already exist. Reach out to others for a more realistic scope, and keep moving forward.

Newton native, Jason Hehir, one of the top documentary makers in the world, joined us on the podcast to talk about his latest project, the ESPN 30 for 30 called "Shark", about golf legend Greg Norman, and his struggles at The Masters golf tournament at Augusta National. It is available on ESPN. Jason talked about how he crafted the story he wanted to tell, how he approached Norman about it, the three interviews he conducted with him and what went into making this spectacular documentary. Jason grew up watching Bob Lobel and Mike Lynch on tv. When he was 11 he interviewed Bob at WBZ and later interned for Mike at WCVB. @OurBestFoods #OurBestBurgers @ColdSpringsRV
"No one comes out of college just knowing how to navigate your chosen profession. It takes time. If I did ‘Last Dance' two years ago it would have been terrible. Learn your trade, sometimes by mistake. There are no shortcuts. Find your voice, no matter what field you're in." - Jason Hehir How did Jason go from humble beginnings to interviewing Michael Jordan? How does a fear of failure motivate Jason? What common traits does he look for when assembling a team? Why did Jason take an unexpected storyline when creating the documentary "Andre the Giant"? Jason directed “Countdown,” a documentary about the first civilian-only launch into space, in near real-time. How did he get the footage from Space X? How did Jason and his team prepare for the possibility of a catastrophic bad day? Legends, Giants, and the Final Frontier Just as directors become world-class by delegating editing film, law firm owners must also trust their squad. Step out of the role of “player” and into that of “coach” to win the game and build a legacy. Build a team that has a passion for the project, a fear of failure, and the congeniality to mesh with everyone else. “The Last Dance” director and seven-time Emmy winner Jason Hehir didn't become an extraordinary director by taking on the whole project himself. He learned to let go and place his trust in the talented people he hired to suit each unique need — a break from his “do it all yourself” tradition. The result? A docu-series chronicling the Chicago Bulls dynasty that would go on to be the most-watched documentary in ESPN history. Among his many films and series, a few stand out: His “Andre The Giant” documentary, the most-watched film in HBO Sports history, and “Countdown: Inspiration4 Mission to Space” about the first all-civilian space mission chronicled in near-real time. In this episode, Jason discusses the making of “The Last Dance,” responsible storytelling, and cultivating relationships with Michael Jordan and André René Roussimoff, better known as Andre the Giant. He also discusses the unique challenges of filming in space. Dig Deeper Research clients and their lives as thoroughly as possible. Cultivate a relationship of trust and genuine connection. Ask the most relevant questions to paint a complete picture that tells a compelling story. The ultimate gift is one of comfort knowing that their claims are understood and will be handled responsibly. This creates ease for clients and icons alike. "These icons are sharks — never looking back, always moving forward. You want them to have the pleasure of sitting back and reflecting on what they have done. Take pride in it. And once they are strapped in, they can look back almost wistfully and share their wisdom. Tell their story. " - Jason Hehir Key takeaways: Take the scenic route. On the road to greatness, there are no shortcuts. Learning a trade is often done by mistake. If you stumble, dust yourself off and keep going. Do your homework. In a world where so many look forward to the next great thing, looking back to gain context and clarity will help craft the right narrative. Fear failure. Hold up the team to the best of your ability, and do your part. Give it your all and success will be won together.

This week on Total Movie Recall, Steve and Ryan offend approximately 1/7th of the world's population, which has historically gone very well. Ryan's love of fairy tale settings don't truck with Steve, who favors Disney's gritty, street-level crime drama Aladdin. Ryan gets vulnerable about the deterioration of his mental health in this dumpster fire world we have, and Steve, ever a good man and a good friend, reaches out. We encourage you to reach out too. Because everything sucks right now, and you need to connect with your fellow humans to survive. Also, this is the worst Disney princess ever. Aladdin (1992) - Disney d. Ron Clements, John Musker Starring: Scott Weinger Robin Williams Linda Larkin Jonathan Freeman Gilbert Gottfried When street rat Aladdin frees a genie from a lamp, he finds his wishes granted.

Debates, entrevistas y opinión sobre la mejor liga del mundo. Además, podrás disfrutar a diario de un #Café con toda la actualidad de la NBA (resultados, declaraciones, noticias, rumores y traspasos), y cada domingo viajarás por el maravilloso mundo de los #CuentosNBA con alguna pequeña historia de NBA que probablemente no conocías. Hoy es lunes, 21 de septiembre de 2020, mi nombre es Javier Mendoza y esto que estás escuchando es el programa número 51 de Café y NBA. ### **Resultados** Nueva victoria de Los Angeles Lakers sobre Denver Nuggets con un triple sobre la bocina de Anthony Davis, 31 puntos y 9 rebotes para el pivot angelino, que volvió a ser un día más, el jugador más destacado del equipo, por delante de LeBron James 26 puntos y 11 rebotes. Por parte de Denver, el serbio Nikola Jokic fue un partido más el hombre más destacado del equipo con 30 pts 6 reb 9 ast. ### Estadísticas El buzzer beater de Anthony Davis para ganar el partido, es el primero de un jugador de Lakers desde el año 2010 en un partido de PlayOffs, aunque penséis que aquel último tiro ganador fue de Kobe, en este caso no fue así, pues fue Metta World Peace el autor de la canasta sobre la bocina. Además, es el primer buzzer beater de Anthony Davis en un partido de PlayOffs y el segundo en toda su carrera. Un apunte. Game Winner y buzzer beater son cosas distintas. El buzzer beater es cuando después de la canasta no es posible seguir jugando, es decir, cuando la canasta entra con el tiempo agotado. El game winner sin embargo, además de contar esa situación claro, también cuenta aquellas canastas que se anoten en los últimos segundos del partido y que sirvan para ganar el mismo, pero como digo, no tiene porque ser la última jugada del partido. ### **Noticias** Gordon Hayward ha hecho unas sorprendentes declaraciones en las que ha confirmado que se quedará en la burbuja hasta que eliminen a los Celtics de los PlayOffs, de primeras puede parecer lo lógico pero si os lo estoy contando aquí es porque es un notición. Desde que llegó a Orlando en el paso mes de julio, estaba previsto que abandonara la burbuja en algún momento de los PlayOffs para asistir al nacimiento de su hijo, sin embargo, Hayward ha dicho ahora que después de discutirlo con su mujer, han decidido que no abandonará la burbuja aunque eso conlleve perderse el nacimiento de su bebé. Hayward volvió a la pista en el partido número 3 de la serie ante los Miami Heat, después de perderse los dos primeros y la eliminatoria entera contra Toronto Raptors por un esguince grave en el tobillo. Aunque sus números no fueron llamativos, su labor en los Celtics se nota en cuanto pisa la cancha. El exentrenador de Cleveland Cavaliers y de Los Angeles Lakers, Mike Brown, será uno de los entrenadores entrevistados para el puesto vacante en los banquillos de Indiana Pacers, de acuerdo a una información publicada por Adrian Wojnarowski en ESPN. Brown es actualmente entrenador asistente de los Golden State Warriors desde 2016, y lleva sin sentarse en un banquillo como entrenador principal desde la temporada 2013/14. Kevin Pritchard, el presidente de los Pacers, es quién está realizando las entrevistas, y entre los candidatos estarían, además de Mike Brown: Mike D'Antoni, que podría ser actualmente el favorito según los últimos rumores, Becky Hammon, que está esperando su oportunidad en los Spurs pero Popovich no parece dispuesto a jubilarse, Jacque Vaughn, que hizo una gran burbuja con los Nets pero ni siquiera fue considerado para el puesto y el exjugador Chauncey Billups. Steve Nash, flamante nuevo entrenador de los Brooklyn Nets, ha estado en el podcast de JJ Reddick, The Old Man and the Three, y ha hecho una sorprendentes declaraciones en cuanto al estilo de juego que plantea para su equipo la próxima temporada, y en particular, para las dos estrellas del mismo: "Durant puede jugar en las 5 posiciones, es sin duda un problema para cualquier jugador que se empareje con él, así que planeo usarlo en todas las posiciones la próxima temporada. Me encanta Kyrie Irving sin balón, es uno de mis jugadores favoritos, creo que es un puñal sin tener el balón en posesión." Con estas declaraciones, nadie debería sorprenderse la próxima temporada si de pronto vemos a Kevin Durant jugando como base del equipo, con Kyrie Irving también en la pista jugando como escolta. El documental THE LAST DANCE ha sido premiado esta pasada madrugada con el Emmy al mejor documental o serie de no ficción. Jason Hehir, el directo de la cinta, ha sido el encargado de recibir el premio, y ha aprovechado el discurso para agradecer a Michael Jordan su tiempo y su honestidad, sin olvidarse de las otras 105 personas que se sentaron con él durante la grabación del documental. THE LAST DANCE, que se estrenó en pleno confinamiento mundial y sin NBA en juego, iba a estrenarse originalmente en el mes de junio, en medio de los PlayOffs de la NBA, pero ESPN decidió adelantar su estreno al mes de abril para hacernos más sencillo el encierro. Con 10 horas de duración, THE LAST DANCE se ha convertido para muchos, en la mejor película documental deportivo de la historia, y también los críticos la ponen en este pedestal, pues actualmente es el documental de ESPN mejor valorado, y no es que hayan hecho pocos precisamente... ### Despedida Recordad que estoy en RRSS siguiendo la NBA cada día como @JaviMendozaNBA, tanto en Twitter como en Instagram, y que también subo vídeos de vez en cuando a mi canal de YouTube, que podréis encontrar fácilmente buscando por Javi Mendoza NBA.

Hoy es lunes, 21 de septiembre de 2020, mi nombre es Javier Mendoza y esto que estás escuchando es el programa número 51 de Café y NBA. ### **Resultados** Nueva victoria de Los Angeles Lakers sobre Denver Nuggets con un triple sobre la bocina de Anthony Davis, 31 puntos y 9 rebotes para el pivot angelino, que volvió a ser un día más, el jugador más destacado del equipo, por delante de LeBron James 26 puntos y 11 rebotes. Por parte de Denver, el serbio Nikola Jokic fue un partido más el hombre más destacado del equipo con 30 pts 6 reb 9 ast. ### Estadísticas El buzzer beater de Anthony Davis para ganar el partido, es el primero de un jugador de Lakers desde el año 2010 en un partido de PlayOffs, aunque penséis que aquel último tiro ganador fue de Kobe, en este caso no fue así, pues fue Metta World Peace el autor de la canasta sobre la bocina. Además, es el primer buzzer beater de Anthony Davis en un partido de PlayOffs y el segundo en toda su carrera. Un apunte. Game Winner y buzzer beater son cosas distintas. El buzzer beater es cuando después de la canasta no es posible seguir jugando, es decir, cuando la canasta entra con el tiempo agotado. El game winner sin embargo, además de contar esa situación claro, también cuenta aquellas canastas que se anoten en los últimos segundos del partido y que sirvan para ganar el mismo, pero como digo, no tiene porque ser la última jugada del partido. ### **Noticias** Gordon Hayward ha hecho unas sorprendentes declaraciones en las que ha confirmado que se quedará en la burbuja hasta que eliminen a los Celtics de los PlayOffs, de primeras puede parecer lo lógico pero si os lo estoy contando aquí es porque es un notición. Desde que llegó a Orlando en el paso mes de julio, estaba previsto que abandonara la burbuja en algún momento de los PlayOffs para asistir al nacimiento de su hijo, sin embargo, Hayward ha dicho ahora que después de discutirlo con su mujer, han decidido que no abandonará la burbuja aunque eso conlleve perderse el nacimiento de su bebé. Hayward volvió a la pista en el partido número 3 de la serie ante los Miami Heat, después de perderse los dos primeros y la eliminatoria entera contra Toronto Raptors por un esguince grave en el tobillo. Aunque sus números no fueron llamativos, su labor en los Celtics se nota en cuanto pisa la cancha. El exentrenador de Cleveland Cavaliers y de Los Angeles Lakers, Mike Brown, será uno de los entrenadores entrevistados para el puesto vacante en los banquillos de Indiana Pacers, de acuerdo a una información publicada por Adrian Wojnarowski en ESPN. Brown es actualmente entrenador asistente de los Golden State Warriors desde 2016, y lleva sin sentarse en un banquillo como entrenador principal desde la temporada 2013/14. Kevin Pritchard, el presidente de los Pacers, es quién está realizando las entrevistas, y entre los candidatos estarían, además de Mike Brown: Mike D'Antoni, que podría ser actualmente el favorito según los últimos rumores, Becky Hammon, que está esperando su oportunidad en los Spurs pero Popovich no parece dispuesto a jubilarse, Jacque Vaughn, que hizo una gran burbuja con los Nets pero ni siquiera fue considerado para el puesto y el exjugador Chauncey Billups. Steve Nash, flamante nuevo entrenador de los Brooklyn Nets, ha estado en el podcast de JJ Reddick, The Old Man and the Three, y ha hecho una sorprendentes declaraciones en cuanto al estilo de juego que plantea para su equipo la próxima temporada, y en particular, para las dos estrellas del mismo: "Durant puede jugar en las 5 posiciones, es sin duda un problema para cualquier jugador que se empareje con él, así que planeo usarlo en todas las posiciones la próxima temporada. Me encanta Kyrie Irving sin balón, es uno de mis jugadores favoritos, creo que es un puñal sin tener el balón en posesión." Con estas declaraciones, nadie debería sorprenderse la próxima temporada si de pronto vemos a Kevin Durant jugando como base del equipo, con Kyrie Irving también en la pista jugando como escolta. El documental THE LAST DANCE ha sido premiado esta pasada madrugada con el Emmy al mejor documental o serie de no ficción. Jason Hehir, el directo de la cinta, ha sido el encargado de recibir el premio, y ha aprovechado el discurso para agradecer a Michael Jordan su tiempo y su honestidad, sin olvidarse de las otras 105 personas que se sentaron con él durante la grabación del documental. THE LAST DANCE, que se estrenó en pleno confinamiento mundial y sin NBA en juego, iba a estrenarse originalmente en el mes de junio, en medio de los PlayOffs de la NBA, pero ESPN decidió adelantar su estreno al mes de abril para hacernos más sencillo el encierro. Con 10 horas de duración, THE LAST DANCE se ha convertido para muchos, en la mejor película documental deportivo de la historia, y también los críticos la ponen en este pedestal, pues actualmente es el documental de ESPN mejor valorado, y no es que hayan hecho pocos precisamente... ### Despedida Recordad que estoy en RRSS siguiendo la NBA cada día como @JaviMendozaNBA, tanto en Twitter como en Instagram, y que también subo vídeos de vez en cuando a mi canal de YouTube, que podréis encontrar fácilmente buscando por Javi Mendoza NBA. No olvidéis suscribiros a este podcast, si todavía no estáis suscritos, y si me estáis escuchando en iVoox, os estaría tremendamente agradecido si me dejáis un me gusta en este episodio.

My guest today is Devin Concannon, who was one of 4 editors on ESPN's mega-hit 10 part documentary series, The Last Dance. The Last Dance revolves around the career of Michael Jordan, with a particular focus on his last season with the Chicago Bulls. The project itself is a beast of an endeavor.. we're talking 10 episodes, over 100 interviews, and according to director Jason Hehir, 10,000 hours of footage to sift through: that includes every game from every main character they had and every news report that had been done on them, both nationally and internationally. The Last Dance averaged 5.65 million viewers across all 10 episodes when they premiered on Sunday nights over the course of five weeks in April and May — making it the most-watched ESPN documentary of all time. How do you go from 10,000 hours of footage to a 10 hour series? I turned to editor Devin Concannon to ask that question and many more. Devin is an editor based out of New York City. An NYU Film School graduate, Devin edited Rest In Power: The Trayvon Martin Story and Fyre Fraud, about the infamous Fyre Festival, before joining The Last Dance Team. I hope you enjoy the conversation! - Devin's IMDB Say hello to Austin on social media www.austinmeyerfilms.com Subscribe to Austin's newsletter on the craft of storytelling
