About this episode
On this week’s episode, Sonny is very pleased—and a little star struck!—to be joined by Lloyd Kaufman, the mind behind Troma Entertainment, to discuss his latest film, #ShakespearesShitstorm , as well as his 50 years in the business as one of the few truly independent indie filmmakers. Kaufman is probably best known for directing The Toxic Avenger , its sequels, and Tromeo and Juliet , as well as producing Class of Nuke ’Em High . But his company, Troma, has been a hot spring of talent for decades, serving as early homes for James Gunn ( The Guardians of the Galaxy , The Suicide Squad ), Trey Parker and Matt Stone ( South Park ), and Eli Roth ( Hostel , Knock Knock ). Warning: This episode contains slightly saltier language than usual, but what else would you expect from a mind whose greatest film prominently involves gym rats running over a kid on a bike for fun?
