00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Hi, it's Jamie here. I just wanted to take a

2
00:00:13.359 --> 00:00:16.320
<v Speaker 1>quick moment to let you all know if you haven't

3
00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:20.160
<v Speaker 1>already seen that. Patrick Tyndall and I my co director

4
00:00:20.239 --> 00:00:23.359
<v Speaker 1>on the Joe Al's documentary Not Your Average Joe, which

5
00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:26.320
<v Speaker 1>is still forging ahead. We are currently running a go

6
00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:30.640
<v Speaker 1>fundme campaign to get us to Los Angeles to shoot

7
00:00:30.719 --> 00:00:34.159
<v Speaker 1>some interviews and some b roll. We've already been out

8
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:36.679
<v Speaker 1>to LA a couple of times. This time we're going

9
00:00:36.679 --> 00:00:40.719
<v Speaker 1>out to focus on a bunch of other topics, including

10
00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Joe's motor racing career, which lasted for a few years.

11
00:00:44.359 --> 00:00:46.880
<v Speaker 1>He used to race with Dicky Smothers of the Smothers Brothers.

12
00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:50.200
<v Speaker 1>He even introduced a very well known film star to

13
00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:53.079
<v Speaker 1>motor racing who went on to have a very illustrious career.

14
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:57.759
<v Speaker 1>We're also speaking to the man who made the articulated

15
00:00:57.799 --> 00:01:01.200
<v Speaker 1>sharks for Jaws three, which barely got you used in

16
00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:05.239
<v Speaker 1>defense really of what the film could have been. We're

17
00:01:05.239 --> 00:01:08.200
<v Speaker 1>also speaking to Anne deuson Berry, who was one of

18
00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:11.200
<v Speaker 1>the stars of Jaws two, who worked very closely with Joe,

19
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:14.879
<v Speaker 1>because Joe shot a lot of second unit on Jaws two,

20
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:18.079
<v Speaker 1>and of course there's a lot of scenes in that

21
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:23.439
<v Speaker 1>film that are kind of action sequences. Also, I've managed

22
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:27.760
<v Speaker 1>to convince Dean Coundy, the dop on Escape from New York,

23
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:31.519
<v Speaker 1>another film that Joe was the production designer on, to

24
00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:35.879
<v Speaker 1>do an interview. So we're interviewing Dean near his home.

25
00:01:36.280 --> 00:01:39.120
<v Speaker 1>Quite a thrill to be able to talk to somebody

26
00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:41.079
<v Speaker 1>who's work I admire that much. We're going to have

27
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:43.840
<v Speaker 1>to really focus in on the Escape from New York stuff,

28
00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:46.480
<v Speaker 1>but maybe maybe if we get on I could get

29
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:49.840
<v Speaker 1>him as a podcast guest in the future. We've also

30
00:01:49.879 --> 00:01:55.000
<v Speaker 1>been chatting to Leah Thompson directly managed to get hold

31
00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:57.280
<v Speaker 1>of her and she is very busy at the moment.

32
00:01:57.319 --> 00:01:59.359
<v Speaker 1>She said, let me know nearer the time, so I've

33
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:01.640
<v Speaker 1>just sent her any and hopefully we can fit her

34
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:03.280
<v Speaker 1>in as well. So we're going to be in LA

35
00:02:03.400 --> 00:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>from the twenty second to the twenty eighth of February

36
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:11.199
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty six, cramming in a lot of these interviews.

37
00:02:11.319 --> 00:02:14.159
<v Speaker 1>We're hoping to also hang out with Joe a little

38
00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:17.240
<v Speaker 1>bit and maybe even get some more stories. What I

39
00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:19.439
<v Speaker 1>have to remind myself is that we've really only shot

40
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:23.080
<v Speaker 1>like between ten and twelve days on this documentary, and

41
00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:25.400
<v Speaker 1>some of those days were just one interview, you know.

42
00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:28.159
<v Speaker 1>Other days it was a full run of interviews with

43
00:02:28.639 --> 00:02:31.919
<v Speaker 1>Joe for the day, or maybe multiple people. But it's

44
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>actually only a short number of days that we've worked

45
00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:37.360
<v Speaker 1>on this, and what we've achieved so far is amazing.

46
00:02:37.639 --> 00:02:41.879
<v Speaker 1>We've even managed to get in touch with Amblin, Steven

47
00:02:41.919 --> 00:02:47.199
<v Speaker 1>Spielberg's company, and maybe we'll get a response from Stephen himself.

48
00:02:47.240 --> 00:02:52.360
<v Speaker 1>We've sent him a gift and a message about the

49
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:54.639
<v Speaker 1>documentary and how we would really love if he could

50
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:57.960
<v Speaker 1>be involved. You know, Joe's ninety this year. I'm not

51
00:02:57.960 --> 00:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>saying we're running out of time. Joe's doing well, but

52
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:04.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, this is a diminishing window, and we've been

53
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:06.840
<v Speaker 1>working on this for a long time, in between our

54
00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:10.039
<v Speaker 1>regular jobs and you know, all the other things that

55
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:12.199
<v Speaker 1>go on in life. This is really a passion project

56
00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:14.280
<v Speaker 1>and we're hoping that Stephen can see that, and he

57
00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:17.120
<v Speaker 1>can see the importance of getting Joe's story out there

58
00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:20.879
<v Speaker 1>as well and leaving a legacy for the great Man.

59
00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:24.599
<v Speaker 1>So I wanted to appeal to your behind the scenes

60
00:03:25.240 --> 00:03:29.240
<v Speaker 1>loving nature and hope that you'll be able to maybe

61
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:32.000
<v Speaker 1>donate towards the GoFundMe. I'll leave the link in the

62
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:35.280
<v Speaker 1>show notes. We're currently at one thousand dollars. We need

63
00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:37.879
<v Speaker 1>about three thousand to make this happen, but anything we

64
00:03:37.879 --> 00:03:41.360
<v Speaker 1>can get over like eighteen hundred pounds would be amazing.

65
00:03:41.479 --> 00:03:47.639
