Every once in awhile an interview subject comes along who reminds us why we got into the weird world of podcasting to begin with. Talking about the film business is fun. Laughing about the business is a joy. Genuinely funny stories from a genuine person within the business walls is rare. When we do one of these things within an interview, we feel we have done our jobs. When we can combine all three into one entertaining interview, we feel we have hit a home run. Trust us folks. Actor/writer Adam Simon is a home run.
Moreno and I get things moving in the the early going, giving a bit of small talk about why there hasn’t been a Binge Aftertaste for a month plus (blame alcohol). The lovely Jason Morris joins the conversation and we all get into a discussion -or whine fest- about how much of a bitch sinus infections can be.
Manliness finally hits our podcast when Adam gets on the line. After giving us a tour of the studio where he is currently working on a Shinedown documentary, Simon gets into the set of circumstances of how he ended up homeless for a short amount of time and how writing Man Down was the catharsis to help him deal with the situation. After praising Shia LeBeouf -and threatening to punch anyone who says a bad word about him- Simon gives us even more background about how Man Down progressed from a small indie film that was going to be made ‘using a bag of nickels,’ into a project starring LeBeouf, Gary Oldman, Kate Mara, Jai Courtney, and Binge favorite Clifton Collins Jr.
Simon then goes into his new science fiction starrer Synapse. Armed with a massively influenced science fiction storyline, Simon and director Kenlon Clark’s devotion to making the film as good and expensive looking as they can seems to be paying off. With stories such as Clark yelling, ‘cut, RUN!’ to avoid getting caught shooting their film without a permit, to the project once again gathering steam from backers who loved what they saw, there is never a dull moment each and every time Simon speaks.
All this plus a HILARIOUS on-set story about Jai Courtney, a passionate King of Hollywood discussion, a blooming love connection between Morris and Simon, Moreno’s medicine consisting of bourbon & Nyquil taking effect mid interview, a hint of the After Binge Movie Aftertaste Show, and MUCH more make this one show not to be missed!!
Synapse is yet to have a release date, and look for Man Down sometime in the fall. We at Binge Media will of course keep you informed. Also, be on the lookout for future appearances from Simon and Clark on the Binge Media airwaves very soon.
