About this episode
Filmmaker Adam Egypt Mortimer (SOME KIND OF HATE, DANIEL ISN'T REAL) joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen for a lively discussion about his career journey and the sacrifices one must make in order to make filmmaking their life. From directing music videos… to surviving the empty promises of financing that never materialized… to picking himself back up and refusing to accept defeat… to defeating the boxing beast that is Josh Ethier in the ring at Fantastic Fest (while nursing a set of broken ribs to boot!)… to the 7.5 years that it took to make his latest film DANIEL ISN'T REAL (in theaters 12.6.19)… Mortimer pulls no punches in telling it like it truly is. Dr. Arwen lives up to her proud title as an officially certified service animal and provides emotional support for a patient wracked with guilt over his recent career choice, opening up a Pandora's box of raw emotions over the life choices that Green and Lynch have committed themselves to (for better or for worse) in one of the most epic "Hollywood Therapy" sessions to date.
