Sam Wiens is a director and writer that I met by coincidence last year on the set of “Need No Man.” While filming, we performed some goofy impressions and discussed deep Marvel + Star Wars lore. I knew I needed to have him on the pod because…goofy impressions and nerd talk? That’s essentially all we do on Met by Coincidence.

In this episode, we talk about the importance of small film budgets, we go behind the scenes on Sam’s film “the Brink,” talk about childhood movies like “Everyone’s Hero” and “Chicken Little, and why you should learn to adapt your goals as an artist. It was an awesome convo that I’m super pumped to share!! Enjoy!
