Today, the Kicking the Seat Podcast celebrates 450 episodes with two eye-opening interviews! Last week, Ian sat down with director Brian Rose, following the Siskel Center premiere of his astonishing documentary, When I Last Saw Jesse. The guys talked about the inspiration for the film; getting to know the family of a missing person; and what it takes to get a grass-roots indie seen in the ultra-competitive film festival landscape.
But first, comedian Jim Gaffigan returns to talk about his revelatory dark-side turn in Derrick Borte's thriller, American Dreamer. What happens when a rideshare driver decides to rip off the drug dealer who's hired him for the evening? Find out when the film hits VOD this Friday. In the meantime, enjoy a quick chat in which Mr. Gaffigan talks about auditioning, playing against type, and what keeps him motivated through his crazy showbiz life!
