It was all there from the jump in the 2011 short. Just got more comical (thus commercial) with each film. 3 also veered into overt biblical themes which… meh. Not fan, but I was low key inspired by Leone’s interview with Mick Garris Oct 23. He rolled indie for a decade and it paid off.

💯 Most people who decline the edgier roles I post say they’re busy, or don’t connect with the content (I’m very up front about what’s involved) but this was too funny. Also, a twisted source of pride 😁

No time to post a clip so I’ll share this comment from an actor who refused to audition for this story. 🖤

This writing - so fucking devastating.

I always find that place baffling.

If you appear in three more episodes you’ll qualify for SAG 🤣

Ahh, sorry to hear that. I just went through a takedown by bot, took a week to resolve. I did find the creatorsupport@spotify.com account to be responsive

Hmm, curious what the message from Spotify said regarding the take-down. I know from experience they have bots flagging “potentially infringing” material having to do with music, but I suspect content take-downs would be based on complaints or listener flags rather than automated processes.

@chelseamkrause.bsky.social is SO GOOD! Congrats

They took down a new ep of mine last week. After sending them proof I have music licenses they replied that the episode will be reinstated. Super annoying. I have no confidence it won’t happen again. I know the labels are pressuring Spotify claiming there is massive infringement in podcasts. 🤷‍♂️

Timeless

1997 I moved to San Francisco and made a 3 min radio piece that included the THX Deep Note thinking it was a kind of “tribute.” It aired in morning drive and within 30 mins we got a Cease & Desist lol. 🤣 All these years later I’m working with the Atmos version legitimately.

Just a taste of the final episode of Ominous Thrill - “The Chant” (part 3) out now on all the places.

A quiet, creepy moment from the cursed cassette tape Ominous Thrill story - “The Chant” (Part 2 of 3)

Part 1 & 2 out now on all podcast places. Part 3 out May 8th

Literally just re-watched it the other night and I loved it. Could it use a few snips here and there? Maybe. But it is a fully realized atmospheric dread fest that oddly makes Longlegs feel like earlier work.

Wow - I just mounted mine on a wood post to use a Mailbox. 😝
