After Ian explains why he won't have internet access on the open seas of Alaska for the next two weeks, Terence compares his current production to that of a new restaurant, where the investors keep peeking in the kitchen. Where is the balance in taking the risk and making the show you want vs corporate boundaries and mandates?
Executive Producers, showrunners, and production company owners -- Terence Michael and Ian Gelfand have produced over 50 television series and 20 feature films between the two of them. They're also entrepreneurs, with businesses outside of film and tv, from real estate to start-ups. Ian lives in New York. Terence lives in Los Angeles. This podcast was born from a series of neurotic telephone conversations that began after Terence returned from Louisiana,where he's the executive producer of Duck Dynasty, and attempted to prepare Ian to come onboard the next season to direct and showrun. They both realize they're probably the only two people listening. And that's okay with them.
