Throwback Thursday to that time I co-directed Linda Hamilton in a feature I co-wrote. She was an absolute gem of a person.

My strength and self-control were tested to their brink, but I somehow managed to not roll down my window and yell out, “Oh yeah!”

It's nice to be recognized for COLAs for the work we do in Locations. I'm proud to stand with everyone nominated in these categories, but most especially the rest of my teams on FREAKIER FRIDAY AND HACKS Season 4.

Happy #NationalDogDay to all who celebrate. This is our rescue pup. Ellie’s been part of our family for ten years and my wife and I would both agree that rescuing her was the best decision we’ve ever made. To each other’s faces. Daily.

Everyone who knows me knows I was raised on Stephen King books. I’m so excited to dig in on these stories from the world of The Stand, including some by authors I absolutely adore.

I've figured out why the Vikings have been cursed... Kevin Sorbo has been a fan. Now that he's bailing, I'm expecting a Bills/Vikings Super Bowl.
I'm a Bills fan, so Go Bills! (But also Skol.)

The one cool difference between working on a tv show versus working on a film is the cast and crew screening. Freakier Friday is a lot of fun and a lot of laughs.

This film’s Superman is Superman. He’s kind, cares about life, and is just a little bit goofy. All the cast is spot on. Catch it on a big screen when you can.

Nearing twenty years of being an orphan, Father’s Day hits me hard. But if you find me funny or kind, a lot of credit for that goes to Saint Dave.

I once asked @cgolden.bsky.social for writerly advice, and he said, "Make people care and then make them hurt..."
The Night Birds does just that. Fantastic characters that you care about deeply put into a truly dire situation.
On top of that, Golden is an absolute master at setting.
All the stars!

This is my standard locations look--something Buffalo every day. I can post this because we've reached the episode of HACKS with Late Night. Such an amazing show to work on. Hope everyone's enjoying this season!

Just finished Wake Up and Open Your Eyes by @claymcleod.bsky.social and this book shook me like a roller coaster that was all first hill drops. And when I needed it the most, an "Anderson Cooper superego" takes the reins.
A great, terrifying ride!
