September 21, 2018 10:00 - 17 minutes

Great writers have a knack for storytelling. Larry Toppman is one of them. Over the years I have enjoyed reading his film reviews AND hearing his stories, the latter shared over coffee, lunch or at screenings. Some of my favorite Larry stories have included a Bermuda cruise that almost sank, a high school reunion run amok, and some crazy happenings in Las Vegas. This 1K podcast allows Larry to tell stories related to his interactions with some of Hollywood’s biggest stars. Over four decades ...

1K with Lisa Davis: Clothing Shaquille O'Neal

September 14, 2018 10:00 - 17 minutes

There are a lot of jobs in TV and film production that, if done right, are often underappreciated. For example, you don’t hear many people raving about the art of costume designing and making unless it’s a period piece with flowy ballgowns. But behind every item of clothing on any film or TV show, is a choice. Whether you actively think about it or not, everything a character wears tells you something about who they are, where they are, and when they are. Our guest this week is Hollywood cos...

He’s toured the country playing keyboard in a rock band. He does right-brained thinking for left-brained people, writing jingles, commercial scripts, and other creative copy. And for the past two and a ha...

1K with Rob Treveiler: Making out with Teri Hatcher

August 31, 2018 10:00 - 17 minutes

Rob Treveiler has a name my dyslexic brain wants to misspell and/or mispronounce. It’s a shame because I really like the guy. He has always been kind, accessible and very talented. I remember watching him a few years ago on set. He introduced himself to the extras, his fellow actors and talked to the crew. Then, right before filming began, he fell into his character. It was special. Over the last couple of years Rob’s talents have been justifiably recognized. He has landed roles in big movie...

1K with Quinn Shephard: College funds for an indie film

August 24, 2018 10:00 - 17 minutes

Inspired by Arthur Miller’s Crucible, Quinn started writing the screenplay about coming of age in high school, while she was doing just that…in high school. Write what you know. But, also what you loathe? Quinn shares how hard high school was for her. She was a loner who struggled to make friends and was often bullied. Fast forward a few years...

August 17, 2018 10:00 - 17 minutes

Ken Ludwig is a Tony Award-winning playwright whose 25 plays and musicals have spawned six Broadway productions and seven in London’s West End.

He loved the play, and six months later, it opened in the West End. Not long after that, Tenor hopped across the pond to Broadway.   Referred to as "Americ...

In this podcast, Charna shares that story and how it led her from one classroom into a completely different one: teaching improv and shaping comedy history. Her students have included Chris Farley, Steve Carrell...

1K with Brian Lafontaine: Killing the star of Nashville

August 03, 2018 10:00 - 17 minutes

Brian Lafontaine is a talented actor of film, television, stage and voice-over. This makes him a rarity in our modern world in that his vocation and passion align. It’s important that they do because it is the joy of acting that helps Brian get through the hard parts: the incredible amount of time it takes to memorize scripts…the fruitless auditions. Muhammad Ali’s quote rings true, There’s nothing wrong with getting knocked down, as long as you get right back up. Brian’s advice for aspiring...

1K Marketing with Scott Galloway

October 02, 2017 13:00 - 17 minutes

In a delightfully confusing move, our guest this week is none other than Scott Galloway. No, not the host of this podcast. The other Scott Galloway. Or is our Scott Galloway the other Scott Galloway? Anyway, this episode features two Scott Galloways for the price of one. You might recognize our guest as the NYU professor who replied to a rude student's complaint email with a legendary virtual tongue-lashing. Or maybe you've seen his videos for L2 Inc on YouTube analyzing brand strategy and...

1K Spirits with Tito Beveridge

September 11, 2017 13:00 - 17 minutes

Drilling for Texas Tea turned out to be a bust for Tito Beveridge, but he struck the mother lode with a different type of liquid altogether, one more commonly associated with Russia than the American southwest: vodka. It's a story of perseverance, and today, twenty years later, Tito's Handmade Vodka is flying off the shelves.
