Ep 311: Ricky Bates, Jr.

Filmmaker Ricky Bates, Jr. (TRASH FIRE, EXCISION, SUBURBAN GOTHIC) sits down with Adam, Joe, and Arwen for a fascinating and hilarious discussion about his career journey so far. From stacking Ikea bunk beds in his tiny apartment to house his crew… to playing Sundance for the first time... to working with the legendary John Waters… to creating characters that are honest outcasts… to the making of his latest film TONE DEAF (out this August), Ricky's self deprecating candor makes for a truly enjoyable and sincere conversation. Dr. Arwen dishes out both marketing tips and dating advice with her "Hollywood Therapy," Ricky informs Joe of a shocking documentary that is right up his alley, and the guys share their love for the great Ray Wise in this wicked fun episode that succeeded in getting Ricky out of his house and around other people.
