This is a bonus Mini-Episode brought to you by Our friends at THE ORGANIST podcast.

The Organist is an arts and culture show produced by McSweeney's and KCRW. They interview artists, and writers, musicians, philosophers, actors, and wild cards like cyborgs and retired tennis coaches.

On this season of the Organist, they had some interview segments that had more to do with documentaries, and we get to play you the audio from those segments. This interview with Peter Coyote focuses on his work with filmmaker Ken Burns.

PETER COYOTE works as an actor, voiceover artist, and narrator living in Northern California.

This episode of Sup Doc we talk about the documentary The United States of Detroit. We're offering our listeners an exclusive peek at this film that has only been screening at festivals; email us at supdocpodcast AT gmail with the subject line "Detroit" and we'll send you a link. Watching the film will help you follow this conversation, or you may want to see the film after hearing this episode.

This panel was recorded live in April 2018 at the New Parkway Theater in Oakland. The film focuses on a few Detroiters, like Pastor Barry, that are making positive street level impacts in a city famous for its negative headlines.

Even with it’s heavy subject matter we had a fun, funny and informative panel with the director Tylor Norwood and Oakland comedian Karinda Dobbins. We also end with a Q&A session from the audience.

United States of Detroit will be screening in Washington, DC throughout Sept at the National Museum of African American History and Culture, check their website for details.

Special thanks to Ben Sinclair and Skydojo for organizing this event and the New Parkway in Downtown Oakland for hosting us.

George brings his recording gear on vacation to the Twin Cities this muggy summer and meets up with comedians Rana May and Shelly Paul to discuss the Second Life documentary Life 2.0, streaming on Netflix. We have a lot of opinions while recapping the three main storylines of this 2010 technophobia doc from director Jason Spingarn-Koff (Oscar winner for Icarus).

We also learn a little bit about why Rana and Shelly are not the same person, ask whether or not George is a troll, and find out the most virtuous way to get bed bugs.

Was Mr. Rogers the GOAT or the lamb? Paco and George go guest-free on this dive into the life of OG content creator Fred Rogers via Morgan Neville's 2018 documentary Won't You Be My Neighbor? How would Mr. Rogers address family separation policy or eating at a restaurant with Sarah Huckabee Sanders? How do Tom Hanks and Jim Carrey compare as faux Rogers? We don't know the answers, but we have the audacity to ask! Set your egg timer!

This was a live panel Friday June 8th during the 17th Annual San Francisco Docfest at the Roxie Theater in San Francisco. Freaks and Geeks - The Documentary, is currently airing on A&E. We spoke with director Brent Hodge and SF comedians Kelly Anneken and David Klein.

Freaks and Geeks The Documentary is a loving portrayal of Paul Feig’s creation and all the stars that came out of it. Freaks and Geeks heralded a new generation in comedy with actors like Seth Rogen, Martin Starr, Linda Cardellini, and Jason Segel. There’s even interviews with the programmers of NBC and the singer of Styx!

This was a crazy night in the mission because we recorded immediately after the Warriors won!

Special thanks to DocFest SF Indie Fest staff, and The Roxie staff.
