James Gunn

from Happy Sad Confused · host Josh Horowitz

Three years ago James Gunn thought his career was over. Fired by Disney, he pondered his future and well, things didn't look good. What a difference a few years make. On this first visit to Happy Sad Confused (at last!), James reflects on the low-point of his career, his resurrection thanks to THE SUICIDE SQUAD, and why the only Superman movie he wants to make is about his dog.

TheVR Happy Hour WeAreTheVR Podcast by TheVR Explicit Last Day Lemonada Media This is a show about the moments that change us, fundamentally and forever. Each week, host Stephanie Wittels Wachs (Lemonada’s co-founder and award-winning queen of darkness and light) is sitting down with a new guest to explore happy/sad stories of survival, resilience and transformation. After three seasons of exploring the "last day" of people’s lives in an effort to understand mass epidemics, Steph was ready for a change herself. Some “last days” are hopeful. Some are tragic. But at the heart of every “last day” is also a new beginning. Laugh/cry with us.
