In this episode of Panhandle Pulse, host Chuck Asbury sits down with Ed Gutentag, a veteran Hollywood cinematographer and storyteller now based in Panama City, Florida.

Ed shares an incredible journey spanning decades in film, from working on iconic productions like Titanic and War of the Worlds to interviewing legends such as Harrison Ford, Robin Williams, and even spending time with the Dalai Lama. But this conversation goes far beyond Hollywood.

Together, Chuck and Ed dive into:

• Why storytelling matters more than technology
• The creative mindset behind great films, podcasts, and businesses
• Living with ADD and turning it into a creative advantage
• The difference between being busy and being meaningful
• How creativity, entrepreneurship, and community intersect in the Florida Panhandle
• Why politics shouldn’t destroy relationships — and how real conversations still matter

Ed explains why cameras don’t make great stories — people do — and how modern creators can use storytelling to elevate businesses, brands, and communities without losing authenticity.

This is an honest, deep, and wide-ranging conversation about creativity, purpose, discipline, freedom, and human connection — exactly what Panhandle Pulse is all about.

👉 If you care about film, storytelling, entrepreneurship, personal growth, or the future of the Florida Panhandle, this episode is for you.
