#91 With Alan Katz!

Episode #91 Alan Katz

Well that was a blast. Had a great conversation with AL Katz about his journey through Hollywood and beyond. We got into his time writing for iconic shows like Tales from the Crypt, working with legends like Robert Zemeckis and Walter Hill, navigating the wild world of TV and film production, and why he walked away from it all.

We also dove into The Donor: A Modern Horror Story, his deeply personal and harrowing true story that blends medical mystery with psychological thriller—an incredible example of real life being stranger (and scarier) than fiction. AL opened up about how the experience changed him and how he turned it into a powerful narrative.

Oh, and the Hollywood stories—buckle up. AL shared some truly bizarre, hilarious, and borderline unbelievable encounters with a certain A-list celebrity whose behavior might just redefine “diva.” From strange requests to even stranger habits, you’ll have to hear it to believe it.

We also talked about "The How NOT To Make A Movie Podcast" which Entertainment Weekly called the first season of the "Best Film Podcast of 2022".. A funny, honest, intense, and eye-opening chat with someone who’s lived through the highs, lows, and total WTF moments of the industry. Don’t miss this one.
