I'm honored to have Judd Brannon on the show today! We discuss the backstory of how he got interested in making movies, what a director actually does, and most importantly his new film Champion. This powerful new movie will immerse you in the supercharged world of dirt track racing. When main characters Sean (Andrew Cheney) and Jack's (Gary Graham) lives collide, they form an unexpected bond and go on a journey of healing together. Core themes you'll encounter in the film are forgiveness, fatherhood, and foster care. About the Film: In the supercharged world of dirt track racing, a single mistake causes the lives of two men to change forever. One must fight for his family, the other must fight to forgive.

Dirt track racer Sean Weathers was at the top of his game...an unstoppable career, scores of fans, and an adoring daughter. When a rivalry with another racer turns personal, the ego that propelled him to success causes a tragedy, sending his life into a tailspin.

Jack Reed was attempting to make up for past mistakes. He had prospered as a businessman but failed as a family man. In a sudden turn of events, his chances for reconciliation are ripped from his grasp.

Sean and Jack's lives collide, and an unexpected bond forms between them. Working through a painful journey of healing together, they each learn about second chances and the true freedom only forgiveness can offer.
