It's madness, mayhem, and a whole lotta fun on BEHIND THE LENS this week as we're talking THE OMRO HEIST!!

And let me just kick off the show by saying – HEEEEEEE'S BAAAACK!!! SIMON PHILLIPS is back with us today for his fifth appearance on #BTLRadioShow, which makes him the record holder with the most appearances by a single guest in the 11 years of the show! And it looks like he'll be back one or two more times before the end of 2025. However, adding to the joys of having Simon on board today, his collaborator/partner in production crime, director, cinematographer, editor, and writer, JAMIE BAILEY, is also with us! It's a real treat to have Simon and Jamie both on the show together, especially as we're talking about their latest venture – THE OMRO HEIST.

THE OMRO HEIST is the story of a bank robbery that goes wrong in a once quiet Wisconsin small town called Omro. When an FBI agent goes undercover during the bank siege in his hometown, he discovers the robbery is actually an elaborate cover-up orchestrated by a corrupt politician to destroy evidence of his criminal conspiracy. The locals must then stand up to take down an evil gunman who will kill anyone who gets in his way. No spoiler, but needless to say, SIMON PHILLIPS is the evil gunman, and a delicious one at that.

THE OMRO HEIST is directed by Jamie Bailey, written by Jamie Bailey and Simon Phillips, and stars Simon Phillips, Ken Bressers, Anthony Crivello, Damir Kovic, Nick Biskupek, Adam Huel Potter, Al Dias, Heather Arendt, and more.
