In this episode, Rich shares his Oscar experience as we follow the journey from making a little football documentary to getting into SXSW’s film festival, to his bromance with Bratt Pitt at the Oscar nominations luncheon, to going on stage to accept the little gold statute.
We are happy to report Rich’s Oscar is no longer in a paper bag in his cupboard, but you’ll have to ask to find out what place of prominence it now lives.
