In this episode of REIA Radio, we dive into the unconventional journey of Jordan Downey—from bagging ice at his family's plant and managing 10,000 hogs a day at Hormel, to becoming a CPA, tax firm partner, and savvy real estate investor. Jordan shares what it really takes to become a partner in a firm, how he learned to work smarter with his clients (and out-negotiate the other side), and why real estate is one of the best tax strategies for long-term wealth.You'll hear how his childhood in Grand Island shaped his work ethic, how living in his father-in-law's basement sparked his rental journey, and how he bought a trailer park in Missouri to build passive income. Plus, he drops serious gold on what most business owners miss when it comes to selling their companies—and why owning the real estate under your business might be the smartest move of all.It's equal parts tax insight, business acumen, and meat processing horror stories—don't miss it.If you enjoyed this episode, do us a favor: like, follow, subscribe, and leave a review.

This week on the REIA Radio Real Estate Rundown, Owen Dashner and Ted Kaasch get real about mindset shifts, personal growth, and what it takes to level up—both in business and in life. From burning the boats to battling imposter syndrome, this episode is packed with vulnerable, no-filter conversations that every investor (and human) can relate to.Owen teases the upcoming interview with CPA and real estate investor Jordan Downey—known for his next-level tax strategies and investor-first mindset. While Jordan's full breakdown is coming in the next episode, Owen and Ted reflect on the impact of working with professionals who “eat their own cooking” and practice what they preach.Plus, in the Golden Nugget segment, Owen drops a killer strategy: how buying out a partner in an existing LLC can be a faster, cheaper, and smarter move than buying a deal outright. If you're scaling in multifamily, this nugget might save you six figures (and some grey hair).If you got value from this episode, leave us a review, follow the show, and share it with someone who needs a push to take the leap.

Hello! It's me, Dave! Hope you've all been keeping well while I was off for a little while. I am back now and this is my first pick since returning and oh boy am I off to a bad start haha.This weeks episode covers the 2018 horror/fantasy movie, The Head Hunter from Jordan Downey. I can't stress enough that this one is really hard to write a blurb about, as the movie is quite vague in every aspect. The Head Hunter, follows the story of one man's mission of vengeance against the monster that killed his daughter. That's about it. With this one, I would suggest listening to our thoughts first to see if this one interests you in any way at all.Thanks for listening everyone!

Jordan Downey is the writer/director of The Head Hunter, one of my favorite horror movies of 2018, and now streaming on Shudder. One of the remarkable things about The Head Hunter was how resourceful it was. Considering the fact that it was an ultra low budget movie, it is extremely ambitious in terms of scope, and world-building, but while still portraying a tightly structured and intimate story about a medieval monster hunter. This is a pretty fascinating balance that Jordan pulled off and one worth studying. Everyone says your first movie should not be a period piece, should not have elaborate effects, and certainly should not include horses. Jordan did all 3 in The Head Hunter, and still kept the budget super duper low and delivered a kick-ass movie in the end. The Head Hunter is a serious case study for effective low budget filmmaking. Even if you've seen it,  it's really worth a re-watch for the fun of the movie, and for observing its simplicity & elegance in terms of directing and how much Jordan was able to get away with while spending so little. This was a very interesting conversation with some killer lessons in low budget filmmaking. Here as always are some key lessons from this conversation with Jordan Downey.  Think: big scale, small scope. There's a real balancing act to simultaneously building an ambitious & fantastical world while maintaining a tight focus but it can be a really a magical combination. Jordan created such a vast world of medieval warriors, monsters, and complex systems of alchemy, but the story was so elegantly simple. For a low budget movie, the world-building was extremely ambitious and it worked beautifully because the largely single character focus was so tight & stripped down. On a lot of low budget movies, directors sometimes try to go too big with their world-building and end up in that no man's land of campy. This is not where you want to be. One of the ways that Jordan was able to pull this off was by thoroughly defining the world his characters lived in well beyond what was in the script and on the screen. It may seem unnecessary to do all of this development of things that never show up on the screen, but their presence and existence are still known to the viewer. By doing this, you're able to create a world that lives and breathes beyond the seams of the movie, and the audience can always tell. It's a funny, subconscious thing but it's absolutely true With a low budget, high concept, your high concept needs to work and this is by developing it and understanding everything you can about the world your characters are living in. Freaks & The Endless also do a great job of executing a highly ambitious amount of world-building on a tight budget.   There really is no excuse. $4 grand. That's what Jordan's first movie, Thankilling cost - and it was a feature! The movie was picked up by a reputable distribution company called Veritas Ventures and paved the way for his next movie. So, a recurring theme I've seen in speaking to directors is that you're never really supposed to have enough money, to do anything. You are not supposed to have a smooth production. Ever. The job of directing is to overcome every single conceivable challenge and obstacle and make the movie despite your circumstances, not because of them. 4 grand. Easily acquired with credit card debt. As Jordan and many directors before him have said. It really is a matter of just doing it.   Give people their first chance. On The Head Hunter, Jordan got a killer costume designer who was able to deliver way above the budget of the movie, substantially boosting the believability of this world and therefore the production value. The interesting thing was that this costume designer had never done a movie before, but had perfected his craft by creating costumes for cosplayers and Larping - that sounds so dirty, but stands for Live Action Role Playing. This dude was exceptionally talented and was stoked by the opportunity to do a movie, so he was not only affordable but he completely over-delivered. Finding these creative win-wins that leverage the opportunity to work on your movie can really bump up your production value substantially.  In the throes of pre-production, it's easy to lose sight of the fact that making a movie is fucking cool - and so many talented people are DYING to work in film - don't feel the need to be limited to people with experience. Finding talented newcomers can bring you some fresh approaches and a ton of energy - they'll deliver, and appreciate the opportunity and their passion can move mountains on your movie. It probably goes without saying though, that it's not ok to exploit people - so if you can't afford to pay people what they're worth at the time of production, always make it up to them and make it worth their while. Either with deferred pay or by giving them a piece of the movie.    ----- Produced by Simpler Media

Joe celebrates Thanksgiving a month late for a Canadian as he does a commentary for the Cult hit Thankskilling, joined by his wife Carrie. (Todd is still at sea). Carrie, as usual, is picking up on some interesting details and they are joined by the Director and the voice of Turkie (Yes, that is spelled correct), Jordan Downey via excerpts from his interview with Joe. We hear insights into the opening scene nudity and the casting of a porn star by a college student, a special sex scene, mistaking a turkey for a human and the genesis of General Bastard. Joe and Carrie discuss how they discovered this movie, Joe reveals a plot point he missed and they point out technical issues that come with a low budget. They explore the dialogue and the classic horror tropes that were incorporated into the film by Downey and his co-writer/cinematographer Kevin Stewart. They talk about other crazy horror movies that they have discovered together, the construction of Turkie (including Carrie's insights into what it looks like).

ThanksKilling. This 2008 horror, black comedy film was written, directed by Jordan Downey. Downey also lends his voice talents to Turkie, a demonic turkey unleashed by a Native American Shaman during the first Thanksgiving. Turkie becomes active when his resting grounds are desecrated or disrespected. When a group of five college students on Thanksgiving Break run a fowl of his land, they are soon stalked by the wise-cracking, master-of-disguise, Turkie. This film offers you everything you didn't know you needed (?): naked pilgrims, topless rednecks, an afterlife where there are no turkeys, and an extra small gravy flavored condom. Do not watch this film alone.

Let's take a bite out of listeners submission month with our Critters (1986) VHS Movie Review. Quick FactsCritters is a 1986 monster/comedy horror film made on a budget of $2,000,000 by New Line Cinema. Critters grossed $13.6 million during its release in the United States and spawned a Critters franchise with three sequels. Director: Stephen Herek (Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, Mighty Ducks)Writers: Domonic Muir (Gingerdead Man, Evil Bong as August White), Stephen Herek and Don Keith Opper (Has writing credits in all four Critter films) Critters Cast: Dee Wallace (E.T. and Cujo) as Helen BrownScott Grimes (Band of Brothers and The Orville) as Brad BrownBilly "Green" Bush (Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday) as Jay BrownNadine van der Velde (Munchies and is now a TV Producer) as April BrownM.

It's no picnic for the Brown family when a lethal litter of Krites arrives unannounced at their Kansas farm. Trapped in a deadly nightmare, the terrified Browns fight for their lives against the attacking bloodthirsty monsters. But, it's a losing battle until two intergalactic bounty hunters arrive determined to blow the hellish creatures off the planet! It's an alien adventure, full of action and just crawling with CRITTERS! Fun Facts -The Krites voices were a combination of French and Japanese elements and voiced by Corey Burton (Dale from Chip and Dale. -Although Critters was released two years after Gremlins, director Stephen Herek states that the script for Critters was initially written by Dominic Muir far before Gremlin's entered production; Gremlins did, however, serve as an incentive to greenlight Critters. Herek unsuccessfully attempted to sell his project to several studios, but it was only after the release and success of Gremlins that New Line Cinema was willing to produce it. Herek thus had to heavily adjust Muir’s script to reduce the similarities between the two films significantly.-The Chiodo brothers — Charlie, Steve, and Ed — got the job of creating the Krites. The design and construction of the Krites cost $100,000 of Critters $2,000,000 budget. -The main puppets were full-sized 13″ models, with radio-controlled eyes and blinking eyelids, cable-controlled faces, arms, and claws, as well as bladders in the throat and chest to mimic breathing. For the Critters’ eyes, clear plexiglass spheres were coated with reflective Scotchlite material in the back.-The giant Krite at the end was a 4-foot tall suit to be worn by a little person. The Chiodo brothers didn't have much time or money to build the suit. “They didn’t give us the time or money to do it,” Charlie said. “The costume was just a quick, throwaway thing; they wanted to show something big. It looked alright, but there were no mechanics budgeted for the face; it didn’t move.”-Sugar Apples inspired Krite eggs.-Jordan Downey made a 6-minute fan film for a Critters web series that never got off the ground, but his short is rad.

Turkey puns. Comically bad acting. Ancient curses. More turkey puns. ThanksKilling is the extremely low-budget 2009 horror film from first-time director/writer Jordan Downey. Made with only about $3500 this poorly acted, poorly written and poorly filmed movie has become something of a cult classic. The sequel drew in over $110,000 in Kickstarter and ThanksKilling 3 continued the franchise with a much bigger budget while keeping the same quality acting and direction. ThanksKilling revolves around a Native American curse that conjures up killer turkey 'Turkie'. Turkie follows and kills some students and their families on Thanksgiving break as they happen up him after 505 years of hibernation. The students attempt to band together to figure out how to defeat the invincible Turkie and free themselves from the curse. Join the TPM crew as they debate the best holiday-themed killer in horror cinema. After settling on the beloved Jack Frost the crew along with Liz and David carve into ultra-low-budget horror cult classic 'ThanksKilling'.
