The Brandon Goodyear Show

Filmmaker Mike Bernot shot a 24-hour documentary solo — on 30 minutes of sleep, with no lav mics, and the whole thing fit on a 2TB drive. In this episode of The Brandon Goodyear Show, Brandon sits down with Columbus-based filmmaker Mike Bernot to break down the making of Iron Will: Ride of a Lifetime — a documentary following three cyclists (Devin, Dan, and Sam) as they attempt to ride 326 miles from Cleveland to Cincinnati in a single day. This is a conversation about the real, unglamorous craft of solo documentary filmmaking. Mike opens up about staying awake for 24 straight hours, why he secretly wishes he'd had internal NDs, the unhinged moment a small-town sign read "Don't Let Your Tires Wear You Out" two hours after a flat tire on the ride, and the audio confession he's been waiting to get off his chest. But the heart of the episode is bigger than gear. Mike unpacks Devin's philosophy that became the soul of the doc — intentionally doing hard things to prove to yourself that you can, before hard things happen to you out of your control — and Brandon connects it to the neuroscience of why your own stories shape you more than anyone else's ever could. If you've ever wondered what it actually takes to make a feature documentary as a sole producer, this one's for you. 00:00 - "How Did You Not Fall Apart?" 00:17 - Shooting a 24-Hour Doc on 30 Minutes of Sleep 03:53 - Building a Story Before You Know What Happens 10:37 - The "Always Be Rolling" Rule 13:53 - The Sign That Couldn't Have Been Scripted 16:17 - The Hidden Pain of Long-Form Editing 19:00 - Killing Your Babies (and Trusting the Feedback) 21:46 - The Whole Documentary Fits on a 2TB Drive 25:24 - The Myth of the 14-Hour Shoot Day 26:34 - How He Captured the Night Without Drones 32:25 - What Humans Are Actually Capable Of 38:14 - The Real Message Beneath the Cycling 41:09 - Devin's Philosophy: Doing Hard Things on Purpose 42:09 - Why Your Own Stories Inspire You Most 46:33 - The Technical Confession He's Been Sitting On 49:33 - "It's All Nat Sound" 52:46 - What He'd Add to the Next Doc 57:48 - Why "More Footage" Is a Trap 59:10 - Drive to Survive vs Vérité Documentary 1:05:00 - Why Narrative Edits Faster Than Documentary 1:10:21 - Where to Watch Iron Willbrandon goodyear show, brandon goodyear, mike bernot, iron will documentary, iron will ride of a lifetime, documentary filmmaking, solo filmmaker, documentary podcast, cycling documentary, cleveland to cincinnati, sony fx3, fx3 documentary, indie filmmaker, columbus ohio filmmaker, columbus ohio podcast, filmmaking podcast, documentary editing, video production, endurance cycling, ultra cycling, devin gonzales, behind the scenes filmmaking, video podcast, filmmaker interview, sole producer, davinci resolve, documentary craft, vérité documentary, drive to survive, podcast interview, ohio documentary, midwest filmmakers, documentary process What's the hardest thing you've ever pushed yourself to finish?

Jesse Miller is a craniosacral therapist and exercise physiologist who believes we've been doing emotional regulation completely wrong — and it's breaking us.In this episode of The Brandon Goodyear Show, Jesse sits down with Brandon for a wide-ranging conversation about why humming can literally rewire your nervous system, the hidden danger of outsourcing your self-awareness to an Apple Watch, and the controversial idea that we should actually be MORE emotionally unregulated — not less.Jesse opens up about growing up in a family where caring for others meant ignoring yourself, the generational belief that self-care is selfish, and the moment during the pandemic when she wrote "I don't know what emotion is" in a notebook — and everything changed. They explore how scared and happy are the same physiological response, why your exhale is more important than your inhale, the connection between breath and heart rate variability, and how to find joy in movement instead of optimizing your way into hating exercise.Whether you're a biohacker glued to your Oura ring, a parent trying to raise emotionally healthy kids, or someone who just feels stuck — this conversation will give you a completely new framework for connecting with yourself.💬 What's one emotion you were taught to suppress growing up?
