Teabags, I love making a guest connection kind of in the wild! Steve Malcolm reached out to me after he heard his friend, Jonathan Slade, in Season 1. We struck up an email conversation that led to me asking if he was interested in chatting with me for the pod, and here we are!
Steve joins me at my kitchen table today to talk about his non-traditional path to becoming a TV producer, and how is religious upbringing influenced his love / hate relationship with TV.
Did you know that you can use cows as collateral to buy a guitar amp? Steve explains how as he also chats about how a TV producing job is good for a squirrel brain, why the thesaurus was his friend, what a crank telephone is, how boredom is good for creativity, and some of the many slippery slopes to hell.
As you listen today, be aware that sometimes airpods and Zoom recordings don’t always pair well, and that fixing the sound variations is currently above my pay grade. You can still hear Steve clearly, so get cozy!
