Love Sam’s books, but I hope he offers an apology to your paid listeners for the total fiasco of an episode he guest-hosted.

PETER GREER

Just incredible…thank you

Ashley

Way to go Bret for finally nailing “Coppola”

Who else could’ve set the record straight on the EO mixer, once and for all?

am going to listen on my run. will say more later, after my run.

Looking forward to this tomorrow morning. It’s a good book, kinda overcooked but with lots of energy. The Quentin interviews were great. Seems like the podcast is back on track and yes 5mins with Sam and ms camp were more than enough. Name dropping boredom. But check out- The Zone of Interest, May December, Poor Things, The Holdovers. Cinema is not over.

Fun fact: Dennis Jakob is the guy whose rooftop in Venice Beach Jim Morrison slept on in summer ‘65 when he, under the influence of then-legal LSD / Jakob’s grass, wrote most of the early Doors’ songs. Also, Jakob later claimed it was his suggestion that Coppola use Conrad’s Heart of Darkness as a template for Apocalypse Now.

Maybe all of this is in Wasson’s book - which I can’t wait to read over the holidays. Big Goodbye was a masterpiece.

Poetical Gore

if Sam even dreams about hosting again he better wake up and apologize! :P

FFC has 5 greats if you, um, count Dracula. He belongs on the Mt. Rushmore of directors just for Godfather thru Apocalypse. That run was so absurdly great, it was like the movie gods confined him back down to earth for the remainder of career.

Nathan Stewart

Amazing chat! Reading ‘The Big Goodbye’ now and can’t wait to read this one!

John Presnall

Coppola had this 60s idea that established institutions were out to get you, but they’re not that way. So says Sam Wasson.

Actually, early-ish in this episode, Bret said it both ways in one question.

Another great podcast! Thank you! Loved it!

yes, people care about your run...least of all, Bret 😂😂👍👍

Apocalypse Now is not a masterpiece?? It is the greatest film ever made and that's a fact...oh wait, it's too genuinely intellectual for Wasson; WASSON IS NOT A THOUGHTFUL, INTELLECTUAL WRITER??? 😱😱😱😂😂😂...ahhh, guess he's just a semi-retarded geekboy 😂 go back to your generic Godfather, Wasson, and go fuck yourself...as usual...anyway, he's an adorable, geeky fanboy...who gives into pseudo intellectual horseshit...that's why he n' Bret get along so well 😂😂
