Kevin Smith (Clerks, Mallrats) joins us this week to share the duality of having immense gratitude for everything he's been able to accomplish throughout his career, all the while being cursed with ambition that drives him to create more. Being a trailblazer in independent film, Kevin gives us his opinion about the current state of filmmaking post pandemic, the cyclical similarities between major sci-fi franchises, and the problem with today's movie rating system. We also talk about creating a legacy off of a basic name, bottoming your way through life, and embracing fandom.
