  • Ep 006 Celebrities - Filming the Famous
    I have met and filmed many people in my almost 20 years owning a film and marketing company. Most people find the documentary, commercials and sports interesting but what they really want to know about is the celebrities. "Who have you filmed and what were they like?" is a common question. In this podcast I vary a bit from the guest format and talk about some lessons I learned from some very famous celebrities.

  • Ep 004 Western Movie Advisor and Historian. "How can you pray for a death in someone’s family so your child can live?"

    Sometimes in life you are going along and all is well. Then tragedy and even death can happen without notice. Depression may take over but when you are able to see the things you are still able to accomplish in not only your own life but others, you will find happiness again!

    Some of my favorite quotes this episode are:

    "If you can be a blessing to someone else's family, be that blessing."

    "No one is more prepared to deal with your problems than you."
