What happens when a 6'8" former police officer clotheslines a man in a white mink coat and a three foot afro wig with Christmas lights on a concrete floor outside a wrestling ring in Wartburg, Tennessee? You get the origin story of Big N Funky Productions and one of the greatest creative partnerships in East Tennessee history.In Episode 10 of Creative Evolution, host Josi J welcomes back Big Luke Walker and Funkmaster V for a conversation about what it really means to build something with your best friend. Together they are the co-founders of Big N Funky Productions, the independent film company behind four feature films streaming on Amazon Prime, Tubi, Plex, and Fawesome. They are also wrestlers, musicians, paranormal investigators, and two of the most entertaining humans to ever sit in the Creative Evolution Hot Seat.In this episode they take us behind the scenes of their creative partnership: how they met, what makes Big and Funky work when solo work cannot, how their wildly different comedy styles complement each other on screen and off, and why the cheeseburger in the backpack is the greatest opening line in independent film history.
