Episode 157 - BJ Raniak a Wisconsin Filmmaker

Past guests include: Horatio Sanz, Mindy Sterling, Rob Corddry, Erin Hayes, Louie Anderson, Garrett Morris, Darlene Hunt, Brooks Wheelan, Rawle D. Lewis, Senta Moses-Mikan, Frank Caliendo and a whole lot more...
Hollywood Anonymous(HA)is a conversational show about the ins & outs as well as the ups & downs of working in Hollywood. Bryan Erwin & Jon Huck have a combined 40 plus years working in this town... and no one knows who they are. But that's OK, because you will definitely know some of their guests. 
From cheesy sitcoms to award winning hour long dramas, from no-budget independent films to the largest studio blockbuster - it takes an army of people to make TV and movies. Join these two Midwestern knuckleheads every Monday as they talk to the people in the trenches of the entertainment industry. 
Producers, Actors, Directors, Production Designers, Writers, Grips, Composers, Authors, Cartoonists, Comedians - Everyone has a story. What drives someone to want to be in this business? How do people deal with the rejection? How do they define success and failure within their own lives? Mental health, substance abuse, break-ups, insane roommates and the ridiculousness of the whole thing. But mostly - why it's more important to enjoy the ride than it is to strive for a destination. These guys get into all that and a lot of weird stuff too. If you like your entertainment industry insider info with a positive spin then this is your show. Hooray For Hollywood!
