We affectionately refer to it as “This American Life” for filmmakers.

…and of course there’s WTF with Marc Maron.

There is really no need for me to promote Marc Maron’s WTF since it is the most popular Podcast on iTunes. Marc definitely deserves his position. He’s a wonderful interviewer. And for filmmakers, he has really done some amazing episodes with people working at the highest level of the film industry. Among recent guests have been Brian Grazer, Charlie Kaufman and many more.

Happy Filmmaking
