Behind the Scenes of the TV Series Playbook Finance w/ Arthur Bonner

In this episode, Rory speaks with Arthur Bonner, producer, writer, and showrunner of The Union Development Company, about the making of Playbook Finance, an unscripted television series and the deeper mission behind the project. Arthur shares his journey from growing up in Watts to building a career in Hollywood, producing content that tells authentic, character-driven stories. Together, they explore the difference between reality television, docuseries, and unscripted storytelling, and why the most compelling stories emerge when real people are given the space to share their hopes, fears, and aspirations. The conversation also pulls back the curtain on the production process, from long shoot days and story development to editing, archival footage, and finding the emotional moments that resonate with audiences. Most importantly, they discuss why Playbook Finance is about more than money or sports. It is about family, relationships, purpose, and understanding how our beliefs about money are shaped by the people and experiences around us.
