EP08 - Caught Between Torment and Anguish with John Sloss
Description
Taking it back to the indie film boom of the 90s with super-sales-agent John Sloss of Cinetic Media. Walking through the tree-filled Zilker neighborhood in an escape from SXSW, John shares his career journey from a life-changing pickup basketball game with John Sayles to longtime associations with film legends like Richard Linklater, John Pierson and Errol Morris. Ben & Keith eat up the stories of John’s early days, but it's his unique perspective on the current state of the doc marketplace that makes John Sloss a real ‘get’ for Doc Walks.
