Mike Farah, CEO, joins Susan and Ben to discuss Hoop Dreams, a 1994 documentary. Mike shares what it’s like having a career as the Chief Executive Officer at Funny or Die. He discusses Will Ferrell and Adam McKay hiring him as a Producer at Funny or Die, making internet videos with Jerry O’Connell during the writer’s strike, how the pitch experience can remain positive even when getting rejected, and evolving Funny or Die from a production company to an independent studio. Mike plays our “Cinema Synonyms” game.
