The film explores cult film director Alejandro Jodorowsky's unsuccessful attempt to adapt and film Frank Herbert's 1965 science fiction novel Dune in the mid-1970s. Part thoughtful tribute, part bittersweet reminder of a missed opportunity, Jodorowsky's Dune offers a fascinating look at a lost sci-fi legend. "Jodorowsky's Dune" is an account of a film that was never made despite all the love that its makers poured into it, yet somehow it's warm and inspirational: a call to arms for dreamers everywhere. (RogerEbert.com) We also talk about duck dicks, Jodorowsky's Dune as the Tupac of movies, Joe Morton, Meteor Man, Star Wars Force Awakens, and feeding Orson Welles.

33 - HOW TO DRAW A BUNNY w Jeff Zamaria
Paco and George dig into the enigmatic artist Ray Johnson's life and death with our guest, San Francisco comedy producer Jeff Zamaria. This 2002 documentary directed by John Walter and Andrew L. Moore tries to unwrap the mystery of this central figure in the Fluxus and mail art movement who was known for legendary performances like dropping hot dogs from a low-flying helicopter. A contemporary of Andy Warhol's Ray came out of the legendary Black Mountain College art program. The documentary How To Draw A Bunny was the product of six years of research into Johnson's archives and interviews with figures like Christo, Chuck Close, Roy Lichtenstein, Judith Malina, and James Rosenquist. The soundtrack includes improvised drumming by Max Roach and additional music by Thurston Moore. Jeff Zamaria is a comedy booker/show producer in San Francisco and the creator of Learn From Me Comedy. He can be seen producing shows all over SF. Originally from "The Mistake On The Lake" (Cleveland, OH), Jeff has been living, sleeping, walking, working, looking and playing in San Francisco since 2005. When he's not working on comedy, he's giving neighborhood folks questionable service at The New Village Cafe. Sure it's just a side job, but it's his passion. He is also single and currently accepting applications.

On EP 35 hosts Paco Romane and George Chen examine O.J.: Made in America a 2016 American five-part documentary miniseries produced and directed by Ezra Edelman for ESPN Films and their 30 for 30 series. The documentary explores two of America's greatest fixations–race and celebrity–through the life of O. J. Simpson, from his emerging football career at the University of Southern California and why America fell in love with him, to being accused of murdering Nicole Brown Simpson and his subsequent acquittal, and how he was convicted and imprisoned for another crime 13 years later. We are thrilled to have as our guests our talented friends - comedian Greg Edwards (Thug Notes) and via phone with author/comedian Harmon Leon (Infiltrator). Greg Edwards is a fearless comedian from the state of Virginia. Greg moved to San Francisco in 2001 and became a fixture on the Bay Area comedy scene.

Kamau Bell and many more outstanding comedians.
