Episode 8: Mike Ott

We toast with filmmaker Mike Ott. Hopscotch and Sound Virus. Firsts. Handheld Heart. Little Rock on KINO. Hop Louis. CORY! Exploimentary. JC or USC? Films are Fun and other things your gramma says. Learning more from Teaching. Art school entitlement. Stakes is High. Shit gets harder. Writing real life onto film on the fly. Star actor with no web access. Valencia's economy built on Magic Mountain and Wendy's? Analog Deserts: Palmdale and Riverside. On location, you still gotta jump some fences. A case of Mad Dog for Cory. Favorite Magnetic Fields songs. Warren Beatty is a pussy. A Filth song come to life. Louis Theroux. "Our milieu of whatever this is we're in to." No more booze on set. The small desert town where everyone waits for the ball to drop. Herzog.
