Step into the chaotic, bittersweet world of an indie filmmaker who delivers pizzas by day and chases movie dreams by night. In this episode, Mel House narrates the surreal moments — from a pop-star phone call at a teen pool party to dozing on a park train — that became the heartbeat of his film Inbetweening.

Through animated interludes, puppets, and candid memories, the conversation unfolds like a patchwork film itself: equal parts humor, heartbreak, and hard-won courage. It’s a story about momentum lost and regained, the strange rituals of survival in the film industry, and the stubborn love that keeps creators going.

Tune in for an intimate, unvarnished look at what it really takes to make a movie — the push, the hustle, and the quiet perseverance that turns setbacks into stories worth telling.
