| Pitching an Idea (Feat. Lara Olsen, Bobby Florsheim, Scott Milam, Mark Gingras and Lee Nelson) | 02 Jul 2025 | 01:18:45 | |
Episode 3: The Writers Room (Feat. Lara Olsen, Bobby Florsheim, Mark Gingras and Lee Nelson) This week, Josh and Darren are on two different missions—but working toward the same big goal: bringing a movie idea to life. Josh heads into the writers' room with three powerhouse screenwriters—Lara Olsen, Bobby Florsheim, and Scott Milam. Listen in as they share how they broke into the industry, swap creative stories, and help Josh brainstorm and shape his first pitches for the film. It's an inside look at how raw ideas evolve into potential scripts. Meanwhile, Darren is in Toronto, wrapping up his new film, and takes time to sit down with producers Lee Nelson and Mark Gingras of Urban Post. What do producers look for when deciding which scripts get funded? How do they assess a pitch, a writer, or an idea's market potential? Darren gets the scoop straight from the source. So join filmmakers Darren Lynn Bousman and Josh Stolberg as they pull back the curtain on the movie-making process. Whether you're a film junkie, an emerging filmmaker, a horror lover, or someone who dreams of one day having a career in the entertainment industry… this is for YOU!

EPISODE 14: Darren and Josh are joined by Producer Addison Marshall and Vegas native Brannigan Wilson as they nearly DIE in the Las Vegas Escape Room. Both Darren and Josh sound like 4-year-old boys screaming through most of the episode. But before they test their mettle (or is medal, this is Josh and I'm too lazy to look it up) in the death trap, Darren and Josh talk about the listener poll (after all, YOU are helping us choose the movie we make) and they also breakdown some of the producers they want to approach to lead the charge! Join filmmakers Darren Lynn Bousman and Josh Stolberg as they pull back the curtain on the movie-making process. Whether you're a film junkie, an emerging filmmaker, a horror lover, or someone who dreams of one day having ANY career in the entertainment industry… this is for YOU!
