“The rigorous attention to the daily mechanics of directing, writing, producing coupled with the sincerity and passion from Matt and Oren are unparalleled. Listen to them, listen to their guests, and you will be able to not only make a film, but have a strong sense on how to navigate the (wild) entertainment industry.
I began bingeing this podcast during the pandemic, and it armed me with everything I needed to know to shoot my first short film, including the encouragement to "just shoot it". Most importantly: write to your resources. My first film ended up winning awards in a few film festivals, and I have since directed two more shorts, one of which premiered at a BAFTA-qualifying film festival (my dream festival!), and I was recently named to a 2021 Director to Watch list from an industry publication, and have several commissioned projects in que for 2022. Seriously, I feel like I owe everything to this podcast (will be donating to their patreon shortly!).
Favorite part of the podcast: when Oren or Matt stops their guest and says, "wait, let's unpack that". It is always where I find myself wanting to know more granular details, and these two always prod for the juicy info that typically gets glossed over in other podcasts. Love this.
Oren, thank you for addressing the nitty gritty of how parenthood affects the life of creatives (mom of two young ones here, married to a composer). The naivete can be staggering, but it’s so important to discuss.”Read full review »

Coming from an actor with very few film opportunities in/around my city, and unable to uproot family, I think local hires deserve a fair shot, too. Still-...”Read full review »

“In Episode 72, Matt & Oren asked for a bad review because they had become so accustomed to getting good reviews. Sorry guys, I simply cannot take your direction here.
Disclaimer: I’ve binge listened to every episode and I went to their first live show, so I know what I’m typing about.
