I Guess I'll Do It with Pat House

Tommy Avallone and I go way back to the days of 94.1 WYSP in Philadelphia. Since then, he's gone on to direct I Love You, You Hate Me (2022), The Bill Murray Stories: Life Lessons Learned from a Mythical Man (2018) and I Am Santa Claus (2014). As a kid, Tommy always had a camera on him and was constantly making videos with friends. We chat about how those videos were the stepping stone to a career in the world of documentaries. I know nothing about movies, so I have Tommy explain the difference between the director and producer, and his top five favorite movies. Pat House is a nationally-touring comedian based out of Philadelphia. A regular performer in comedy clubs, casinos, and theaters all over the country, Pat has been a choice opener for Sebastian Maniscalco, Tom Segura, and Dan Cummins. He recorded his first album Biggest Thing in 2013, and his latest album Heard Enough Yesterday, hit #1 on the iTunes comedy charts. Both can be heard on iTunes, Amazon, and Pandora.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

An exploration of the spectacular rise and violent response to children's show character Barney the Dinosaur. This thought-provoking documentary traces Barney's grassroots beginnings, from the explosion of international Barneymania to the eventual backlash the purple dinosaur received. Using exclusive interviews and archival footage, the three-part documentary offers first-hand accounts of the Barney phenomenon from the cast and crew to its most outspoken critics. This deep dive into the nature of love and hate asks where the Barney reaction -- which started as a snarky 1990s joke but transformed into actual violence -- may have gotten society.

Filmmaker Tommy Avallone returns to talk about his new film, "Ghostheads", currently killing it on Netflix. We chat about how he reached out to the director of this fun documentary, Brendan Mertens (my future podcast guest) and his overall involvement. A real inspiring tale for us filmmakers. Ghostheads are not just uber-fans of the film. They form chapters and raise money for charity, while giving each Ghosthead a sense of community. I recommend the film highly, which has interviews with key cast and crew, including Dan Aykroyd, Ivan Reitman, Ernie Hudson, Paul Feig and many more, as well as with Ghostbusters fans all over the world. The trailer is at jordanbrady.com nd this episode is an hour and change. Thank you, Jordan PS Way too early to announce, but I'll tell you that Commercial Directing Bootcamp is December 3rd, 2016 in Los Angeles.

Who's lap is your kid sitting on? "I Am Santa Claus" is a wonderful documentary that answers that very question. From an queenly bear Santa, to WWE Champion wrestler Mick Foley, Santa's come from varied backgrounds. My chat with Director/Producer Tommy Avallone is like two old friends gabbing about filmmaking, despite having just met online. We discuss research, how to choose who to follow, funding and everything in between. Watch the film on Netflix or buy it from Tommy's site.
