Christopher n' Scott are joined by Jonathan Kesselman (The Hebrew Hammer, On the Streets with Jonathan Kesselman, Gander) to discuss 2021's "Last Night in Soho". Along the way, we discuss practical special effects versus CGI, potential time travelers, and we learn what to be on the look out for when in Panama City. Good times are had by all!

Shooting the shite with Hebrew Hammer director Jonathan Kesselman, who relocated to Ireland a few years ago. Our chat runs the gamut, from his experience with Benzos, the seeming lack of "alcoholism" in Ireland (yeah, right...) and more! Super fun convo. www.xraepod.com

As 2020 draws to a solitary close, many are struggling to locate the season's festive cheer. Luckily, the spirit of goodwill and merriment endures at TWT FM and in that giving vein, we are delighted to gift you, our dear listeners, a one-off, non-cancellable, tier-free, stocking-filled-to-the-brim-with-radicalism….TWT FM Christmas Special! In one sense, Christmas is a frenzy of rampant consumerism and excess, but the festive period also offers a brief respite from the endless churn of Capitalism - a short window of time where acts of community and reciprocity abound. A glimpse of the world we want. So settle down into your coziest chair, draped in your ugliest festive jumper with a mince pie to hand, for a classic Dickensian tale with a twenty-first century twist. We follow the fortunes of a notorious pandemic-profiteer, Mr Jeff Bezos, as he is haunted by the ghosts of a socialist Christmas past, present and future. Through his miserly eyes, we will rediscover the history of social solidarity that underpins the holiday in order to imagine, demand and build a Christmas transformed. This episode was produced by the TWT FM team with contributions from Jessica Thorne, Seth Wheeler, Alan Bradshaw, Jonathan Kesselman, Hilary Wainwright, Sophie Lewis, James Butler and Keir Milburn. Special thanks also to the 'A Christmas Carol Transformed' actors: Chloe Massey - Narrator. Enyi Okoronkwo - Jeff Bezos Norah Lopez Holden - Emily Cratchit and Alexa. Sam Swann - Bob Cratchit.

Dan and Lex are joined by the star (Adam Goldberg) and director (Jonathan Kesselman) behind The Hebrew Hammer, the 2003 Hanukkah film that became a cult hit. Goldberg and Kesselman reflect on their first collaboration and look forward to the upcoming sequel, to be entitled The Hebrew Hammer vs. Hitler. Click here to help make this sequel a reality on Indiegogo!

Jonathan Kesselman got his big break directing the 2003 cult hit The Hebrew Hammer, which he had directed as a short film at USC Film School. And while he continued his career directing major commercials and comedies like Jimmy Vestvood, Kesselman always thirsted to make a sequel of Hammer. A window of opportunity opened up last year when investment rules changed, allowing non-accredited investors to participate in a film’s equity. To capitalize on this, Kesselman shot a short earlier this year with stars Adam Goldberg and Judy Greer, previewing a possible sequel called Hebrew Hammer vs. Hitler that you can find on Microventures.com. And as we discuss the path forward for the project, we continue our trip through Burgundy by drinking three bottles from the village of Fixin.

Stand-up comedian Maz Jobrani tells us how he brought his character Jimmy Vestvood to the big screen. Maz co-wrote, produced and stars in his hilarious film "Jimmy Vestvood: Amerikan Hero", and took it to theaters everywhere. We chat about how the limitations of a small budget can fuel creative solutions, as well as shaping one's own destiny. Maz also offers an insightful tour of Iran's colorful history, which I find fascinating. Buy "Jimmy Vestvood: Amerikan Hero" today and enjoy. It's all laughs. Shout out to Jonathan Kesselman, the film's director, for the hook up.  Enjoy, Jordan This episode is about an hour and 13 minutes, give or take a few seconds.

Sitting down with Director Jonathan Kesselman was like reuniting with a cousin I'd never met. I'd seen his first film, The Hebrew Hammer, now we talk about his new film "Jimmy Vestvood: Amerikan Hero" starring comedian Maz Jobrani. Maz is hysterical in the clubs, on his specials, so I knew the film would be laugh out loud too. We chat about developing the film, working with actors who wrote the script they star in, and more.  Check out the trailer at jordanbrady.com or click the title above. PS Still a few spaces left for Commercial Directing Bootcamp, August 13th in Chicago, but it's going to sell out. Sign up now! Thanks, Jordan
