Speaker 1: Oh gee, folks, it's showtime.
Speaker 2: People say good money to see this movie. When they
Speaker 2: go out to a theater. They want cold sodas, hot popcorn,
Speaker 2: and no monsters.
Speaker 1: In the Protection Booth, everyone pretend podcasting isn't boring.
Speaker 3: Let it off, turn it off.
Speaker 4: You know what, guys, it's funny. I think this is
Speaker 4: the first time I just want to sit back, take
Speaker 4: a little breeze throughout.
Speaker 2: This whole thing is.
Speaker 4: I just love that's a focus. I'm just getting my
Speaker 4: dog burned back. It's curious.
Speaker 5: I like it.
Speaker 4: I like just get a kid all.
Speaker 2: My time with bold.
Speaker 1: I like having a purpose.
Speaker 4: Sorry, I'm kind of rambling a little bit. I just
Speaker 4: feel really ahaze right now.
Speaker 6: I know.
Speaker 2: Hey, folks, welcome to a special episode of The Projection Booth.
Speaker 2: I'm your host Mike White. On this episode, I'm talking
Speaker 2: with some of the creators behind AJ Goes to the
Speaker 2: Dog Park. I'm talking with Aj Thompson, who is also
Speaker 2: the star, executive producer, and of course the titular AJ
Speaker 2: of the movie. Also talking with producer Ben Hanson and
Speaker 2: writer director Toby Jones. If you get a chance to
Speaker 2: see AJ Goes to the Dog Park, it is a
Speaker 2: wonderfully quirky film kind of up there with Lightning Salad
Speaker 2: moving Picture from two thousand and eight. Thank you so
Speaker 2: much for listening, and I hope you enjoyed the interview.
Speaker 2: Who else do we have here today? I recognize AJ,
Speaker 2: of course, Can you other gentlemen announce yourselves?
Speaker 1: Sure, Yeah, it's AJ, and then I'm Toby the writer director.
Speaker 2: I'm Ben Hanson. Gentlemen, I loved AJ Goes to the
Speaker 2: Dog Park. I'm so curious though, as far as what
Speaker 2: your background is and is this a whole series that
Speaker 2: you have going here. I've read about at least two
Speaker 2: other AJ titles.
Speaker 1: Our background by filmmaking is just stuff we've made growing
Speaker 1: up as kids. And we have the local access show
Speaker 1: we did in high school. I'm in an early AJ
Speaker 1: feature in high school. And then I, after graduating college,
Speaker 1: went off and worked in the animation industry for about
Speaker 1: twelve years, working on a few different shows for Kirch
Speaker 1: Network and stuff. And then this is a project where
Speaker 1: I'm bringing back all these people and those in AJ
Speaker 1: short for Cristch Network that we also did with a
Speaker 1: version of the character. And this is the thing of
Speaker 1: bringing back all the team of the people from when
Speaker 1: we grew up and took film classes and made films
Speaker 1: on the on the on the weekend to do a
Speaker 1: project together.
Speaker 2: Were the other ones? They were all animated, and this
Speaker 2: is your first live action a j oh no.
Speaker 1: The other ones have been mostly live action, with okay
Speaker 1: of the animated short AJ.
Speaker 2: How do you feel being the star of these films?
Speaker 4: I think it's great. I've always told Toby that the
Speaker 4: character that he writes for me is mostly just an
Speaker 4: exaggerated version of myself, so it works out well. I
Speaker 4: wouldn't say before this film, I wouldn't call my self
Speaker 4: an actor, but now I guess since I have a
Speaker 4: feature life belt, I'm an actor now.
Speaker 2: So how did you come up with the idea for
Speaker 2: this one?
Speaker 1: I had the idea first, Well, I've always wanted to
Speaker 1: do more AJ stuff. I joked that AJ is like
Speaker 1: my like Jean Pierre Leo. I liked, it's almost like
Speaker 1: we're doing Antwine Twinel movies where we like check in
Speaker 1: at different stages in our lives and do whatever comes
Speaker 1: to our mind at that time. And I had the
Speaker 1: general concept, Oh, wouldn't it be fun to with all
Speaker 1: of our adult experience come back together and far ago
Speaker 1: and do like a micro budget movie in that old style.
Speaker 1: And the idea just came out of nowhere. It was
Speaker 1: just like, what's something we can do that wouldn't be
Speaker 1: too terribly expensive, it would be fun to make. And
Speaker 1: I think I was on a road trip actually, and
Speaker 1: I drove by a dog park and then the run
Speaker 1: of the concept of the mayor and the silly, dumb
Speaker 1: joke of the name change, and then the fighting, fishing, scrapping, scraping,
Speaker 1: sapping all came to my head at that time. And
Speaker 1: so when we have this concept that agent needs to fight, fish, scrap, scrape,
Speaker 1: and sap, we have a movie there almost because if
Speaker 1: you look at a lot of great comedies, they're very
Speaker 1: episodic and also, working in animation, you're working in an
Speaker 1: eleven minute format, and so oh, I can treat each
Speaker 1: of these segments as a self contained little section and
Speaker 1: come up with just like a nice little arc for
Speaker 1: each one of those. And that was the starting point
Speaker 1: where I was like, Okay, I can this is like
Speaker 1: at least a skeleton I can build a movie out of.
Speaker 2: Oh that's fantastic. Yeah, And I love how very self
Speaker 2: referential everyone is, especially when oh, this will take us
Speaker 2: into the second act.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's a classic thing. We're seeing their writing
Speaker 1: and you're analyzing yourself as you go. And this was
Speaker 1: written in a very kind of free wheeling, almost exquisite
Speaker 1: corpse type way, where I'd like, I look at the
Speaker 1: stuff I wrote yesterday and be like, okay, whatever that was,
Speaker 1: and just try and focus on whatever's entertaining me in
Speaker 1: that moment, and so you end up having those little
Speaker 1: lines as part of it.
Speaker 6: Specifically, we arrived on set of the hospital scene and
Speaker 6: I read this over the script which I had already
Speaker 6: read before, and said, Toby, what the hell is lying
Speaker 6: Love and Loaves? Why is every budget read by him?
Speaker 6: Which Toby said, I said, I don't understand my own joke,
Speaker 6: to which I was by going on buying war bread
Speaker 6: because I didn't think we had enough of the scene.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there are a few jokes in there where it's
Speaker 1: I wrote it in a moment, and there was a
Speaker 1: choice that was being made to do something very creatively
Speaker 1: free where I don't even necessarily remember the meaning of
Speaker 1: this joke, and we're going to commit to it and
Speaker 1: just see what happens.
Speaker 2: I love that. I think That's what makes it such
Speaker 2: a success, is just that commitment to the jokes and
Speaker 2: the absurdity. I think it's wonderful. What were some of
Speaker 2: the biggest challenges of making this film other than trying
Speaker 2: to remember your own jokes?
Speaker 1: I think the three of us would probably all agree
Speaker 1: that there wasn't any single part of producing this movie
Speaker 1: that wasn't a tremendous challenge, because the fact is we
Speaker 1: were making this movie out of pocket, with no resources
Speaker 1: and no external support, and that meant that every single
Speaker 1: thing on screen is something that someone had to get
Speaker 1: and prepare. Every place they go is a place they
Speaker 1: had to get. You had to make a phone call
Speaker 1: and plan it. And there's a lot of locations and
Speaker 1: a lot of weird props and strange things that happened
Speaker 1: in this movie, and every single one there's a story
Speaker 1: kind of behind that. What would you guys say the
Speaker 1: in the ferest part of mat.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you hit the nail on the head.
Speaker 4: Just reading through the script, I thought to myself, Man,
Speaker 4: we're going to be going to so many places and
Speaker 4: there's very few that we go back to, so it's
Speaker 4: hard to imagine in order to film everything when we
Speaker 4: first did the beginning part. We tried it all in
Speaker 4: order to have the first fifteen minutes to show off
Speaker 4: like a demo basically what the movie could be like.
Speaker 4: But after that we were like, there's no way we're
Speaker 4: going to finish this in a reasonable amount of to
Speaker 4: night do it in order, so we had we had
Speaker 4: to do a whole We've changed the way we filmed
Speaker 4: it yep, to be able to actually shoot the scenes
Speaker 4: shoot out at a whole location and all that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And a funny example of that is the location
Speaker 1: of the Mayor's office. We went there and we shot
Speaker 1: there that first year. It was an abandoned room in
Speaker 1: an old office building, and we returned there a year
Speaker 1: later to shoot the rest of the scenes that are
Speaker 1: in the Mayor's office, and they had turned it into
Speaker 1: a exercise room with a giant treadmill in the middle
Speaker 1: of it. So we had to rebuild the entire location
Speaker 1: to look like and we shot it from a year ago,
Speaker 1: and then we had to shoot and of course everybody's
Speaker 1: schedules are tired. We're shooting nights and weekends. Everybody has
Speaker 1: day jobs, and so we're shooting all the rest of
Speaker 1: the mayors scenes I believe we shot all the rest
Speaker 1: of the mayor scenes after the fifteen minute mark in
Speaker 1: one day, that's correct, which was million possible.
Speaker 6: That was a twelve hour now. We did several scenes,
Speaker 6: I know, with a lot of people sitting and stand by,
Speaker 6: being very patient for us. I would say the biggest
Speaker 6: challenge for me and I think others two was because
Speaker 6: everyone these aren't professional actors or they're not acting full time,
Speaker 6: they're not writing full so when there's a crowd scene,
Speaker 6: those are people Our friends and family from ron Fargo,
Speaker 6: North Dakota were generous enough to come that day, and
Speaker 6: if it's an outdoor scene and it rains, it's the
Speaker 6: worst feeling in the world.
Speaker 1: You have thirty people there who are donating their time
Speaker 1: to be extras, and you got to send everybody home
Speaker 1: because the way they're going to be in the rain.
Speaker 6: The climactic scene takes place at the dog park that
Speaker 6: we're filming at, and that particular day in North Dakota.
Speaker 2: Was forty below Zeroh.
Speaker 6: We all had to huddle in our cars between shots
Speaker 6: and then ran out and shoot them. And we actually
Speaker 6: had hot chocolate that we poured out for the people.
Speaker 6: That was like basically refrigerate or cold within two minutes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, And then you mentioned all the locations. I
Speaker 1: intended to write this as something that could be fun,
Speaker 1: that we could shoot pretty quick, pretty easy, but it
Speaker 1: was so much. The fact is I say that, and
Speaker 1: then I write a scene in a church that takes
Speaker 1: it's a ten second scene. It takes place in a church,
Speaker 1: where it's one joke that takes ten seconds. But I mean,
Speaker 1: we have to get a church, we have to go there,
Speaker 1: we have to get all that stuff clear. And then
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, what if we do a big scene
Speaker 1: that takes place in an airport. How do you get
Speaker 1: an airport we gave so every single one of those
Speaker 1: locations was its own self contained challenge. And then one location,
Speaker 1: the coffee Kiosk, We shot the first scene in the
Speaker 1: first year at a different location, and then they wouldn't
Speaker 1: let us come back to shoot the other coffee Kisque scenes,
Speaker 1: and so we had to reshoot the first stuff to
Speaker 1: match the new location and all that.
Speaker 6: If they were not thanked in the ending credits.
Speaker 2: It No, were you guys disruptive? Why would they not
Speaker 2: let you come back?
Speaker 1: Genuinely?
Speaker 6: No idea?
Speaker 1: Sorry, no, It's true. We could not have I swear
Speaker 1: to God, we could not have been nicer. And we
Speaker 1: were probably there for maximum forty minutes, So I have
Speaker 1: no idea what happened. So I think they just didn't
Speaker 1: want to deal with it. And look, and the thing
Speaker 1: is shooting at Fargo. Nine times out of ten you
Speaker 1: find somebody who's so willing to find a way to
Speaker 1: help you. And you were able to get an airport,
Speaker 1: we were able to get a church, we were able
Speaker 1: to get something that looks like a hospital. And so
Speaker 1: weirdly that the coffee Kiosk is the one that we
Speaker 1: ended up having trouble with.
Speaker 6: Though we did want to shoot one of the fight
Speaker 6: scenes between the coach and aj at an actual MMA
Speaker 6: Jim and the MMA. Jim said absolutely, come on buy
Speaker 6: and we came and they said, oh, we're very sorry.
Speaker 6: We did sell the actual MMA ring two days ago.
Speaker 6: Did you watch film in that? So then we had
Speaker 6: to go rent a wrestling ring though that we then
Speaker 6: had set up in our friend's backyard and for two
Speaker 6: days straight, very generous out them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, which also doubled as your new bedroom exactly right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Now, we had written all that stuff to take
Speaker 1: place in the wrestling ring, but we were going to
Speaker 1: switch to a different location for the actual fight that occurs,
Speaker 1: and then we had to think on the fly and
Speaker 1: be like, Okay, I guess we're gonna have to add
Speaker 1: the entire fight scene to the same location and shoot
Speaker 1: all that in a day or two. A lot of
Speaker 1: people very generously excited to help out and make these
Speaker 1: impossible things happen.
Speaker 2: Ajing you mentioned shooting in order and giving that fifteen
Speaker 2: minute demo reel going is that when the moneymen came
Speaker 2: in and they were just like, yes, AJ goes to
Speaker 2: the dog park, let me right out of check right now, right.
Speaker 4: Now, we're still waiting to have the money man the
Speaker 4: money ferry. No, we were really hoping that. We just
Speaker 4: wanted to get feelers out there and say, hey, we
Speaker 4: can make this funny thing. We don't have a lot
Speaker 4: of money to put into it, and we're gonna make
Speaker 4: it and do what we can, and pretty much everyone's
Speaker 4: that's funny, and then yeah, I got nothing sodden. We
Speaker 4: were like, we're going to just do it.
Speaker 1: We do ourselves, and this is the crucial choice that
Speaker 1: gets made where it's I wrote that script. The script
Speaker 1: was complete. It was ready. I worked in animation for
Speaker 1: many years, and I had thought the hyphal thought in
Speaker 1: my head, it's maybe I could leverage my experience in
Speaker 1: the industry and make something like this happen. And I
Speaker 1: called a couple of people and tried a little bit,
Speaker 1: and you had the moment where it's like, oh, do
Speaker 1: I want to spend the next three years trying to
Speaker 1: sell this thing or do I want to spend the
Speaker 1: next three years producing this thing? And so we made
Speaker 1: the call the producer, and after we shot that first
Speaker 1: fifty minutes, it was another version of that conversation where
Speaker 1: it's do we keep sending this Vimeo link of the
Speaker 1: first fifteen minutes around or do we just go make it?
Speaker 1: And so that was it was a kind of a
Speaker 1: hurtle be jumped twice to make the choice to make
Speaker 1: the movie the way we did.
Speaker 2: How long did it actually take to shoot this?
Speaker 6: That would be three years?
Speaker 2: Mite, wow, three years.
Speaker 1: Night nights and weekends. I'd come to visit Fargo for
Speaker 1: two months at a time, sleep in my parents' basement.
Speaker 1: And that's how it worked. Now, not three.
Speaker 6: Years constantly, but again we all have full time jobs.
Speaker 6: So it was three years as we could in about
Speaker 6: three months purst. But those three months were very planned out,
Speaker 6: where basically every weekend was working on the film weekend,
Speaker 6: lots of week nights. We filmed all of the boat
Speaker 6: scenes on the lake at someone's lake cabin who we
Speaker 6: knew in western Minnesota in one weekend, which was very challenging, and.
Speaker 4: We knocked out the first fifteen minutes that first year,
Speaker 4: and it just as an example of how much better
Speaker 4: we got at it in the movie.
Speaker 2: Two years and AJ, what do you do other than
Speaker 2: act in starring movies? Because obviously your schedule has to
Speaker 2: be the most flexible of everybody's.
Speaker 4: I work computer programming, so I work at home and
Speaker 4: they're super generous with me able to work my schedule however,
Speaker 4: and they're actually really supportive of my other stuff that
Speaker 4: I do too. They all my coworkers have seen the
Speaker 4: movie and everything too.
Speaker 1: And the character of AJ because he's based on you
Speaker 1: and those are your dogs. And the job title is
Speaker 1: the job title you've had at the time, which was
Speaker 1: technical consulting.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was a technical consultant when we first started
Speaker 4: filming that.
Speaker 2: So did your pulse go up too much while you
Speaker 2: were working.
Speaker 4: On actually, I would say acting in this made my
Speaker 4: pulse go down compared to my DAGEB so I expect that.
Speaker 2: I mean, with the number of effects and everything that
Speaker 2: you guys haven't heard, posts must have taken forever too.
Speaker 1: Yes, it did, and it didn't. I think, less time
Speaker 1: than you might expect considering how much there is at
Speaker 1: our kind of budget scale. But a lot of posts
Speaker 1: was I've locked the picture, which was hard. But really
Speaker 1: what it came down to is color correction, which we
Speaker 1: worked with someone who was very good with that, and
Speaker 1: it was very fast and a super good process. A
Speaker 1: lot of the digital VFX and came from my friend
Speaker 1: Owen Dennis, who I worked with an animation I went
Speaker 1: to college with. He did a show called Infinity Train,
Speaker 1: and he just took it on as a personal project
Speaker 1: to knock out all those digital v efects that are
Speaker 1: in the movie, just because he loves VFX and so
Speaker 1: he was just like so excited to do them. He
Speaker 1: was adding stuff that we didn't even ask for. And
Speaker 1: then he is also responsible for something we can't spoil,
Speaker 1: but the last section of the movie where there's a
Speaker 1: certain shift that happens, he personally was responsible for all
Speaker 1: those effects that happen and all that crazy stuff that
Speaker 1: comes out to the very end as well.
Speaker 6: Also did want to give a shout out. We can't
Speaker 6: spoil because this is far the ending, but the theater
Speaker 6: feature there is a real theater and fargown or it's
Speaker 6: a coda and indefendily owned one that if you don't
Speaker 6: know too much about it, you should see because I
Speaker 6: hope it spreads the word for everybody about Oh with
Speaker 6: some of the things we happened.
Speaker 2: Far very nice and who did all the model work?
Speaker 2: Because it took me a little bit to realize that
Speaker 2: I was even looking at a model.
Speaker 1: It was so good see that that was owhen Dennis, Wow.
Speaker 1: He took it upon himself. For example, there's this doesn't
Speaker 1: spoil the ending, but there's a model of the dog
Speaker 1: park itself. And that was something that I didn't even
Speaker 1: ask for. He was just like, you know, what I
Speaker 1: think we should have is a model of the park
Speaker 1: in both the summer and the winter. And he sent
Speaker 1: me these shots and it was just like, this is
Speaker 1: the kind of thing, just like an amazing collaboration where
Speaker 1: you find these people and just like Bandon AJ and
Speaker 1: Tucker a cinematographer, people who are just like, oh, you're
Speaker 1: doing something cool. I want to take part and do
Speaker 1: something cool as well and jump in and help out
Speaker 1: however I can. And that was the case with my
Speaker 1: friend Rebecca Sugar, who was an early champion of the
Speaker 1: movie up in the script phase and was just like,
Speaker 1: I would love to do a song for the end credits,
Speaker 1: and I was just like, I have, There's nothing I
Speaker 1: would love more. So it's all this thing where you
Speaker 1: just get these cool people who want to collaborate and
Speaker 1: just tick part in something like this because it doesn't
Speaker 1: happen all the time. It was very interesting when Owen
Speaker 1: called me up and said, can you go to the
Speaker 1: fire with theater with the tape measure and measure how long.
Speaker 6: The sidewalk is and see how tall it is. I'm
Speaker 6: trying to do something. And I was like, all right,
Speaker 6: I'll go do it.
Speaker 4: I'll work break.
Speaker 1: And he didn't tell us until we saw the footage.
Speaker 2: Where did you find your other actors?
Speaker 1: They were all over the place. So it's really a
Speaker 1: combination of things where it's people like aj who you've
Speaker 1: acted a bunch of our projects before, and then there
Speaker 1: are several local theater actors who have a tremendous amount
Speaker 1: of experience, the Mayor and Captain c Stab and the
Speaker 1: suit Age and all people who do a lot of
Speaker 1: local performing. And then there are several people who have
Speaker 1: little to no acting experience who we just really liked
Speaker 1: them and we wanted to bring them in. The actor
Speaker 1: release Thomas as someone who just do someone you know
Speaker 1: from the world. Then political he is the head of.
Speaker 6: The North Cota of Building Trades, and previous acting experience
Speaker 6: was appearing in the US said for Heidi Hikamp's reelection
Speaker 6: campaign in twenty eighteen, and we.
Speaker 1: Brought him in. He was just like, sure, I'll try it.
Speaker 1: And he was such a mentch to work with. He
Speaker 1: was so much fun and he's he has so many
Speaker 1: great gags in the movie. He's so hilarious. And then
Speaker 1: and also to get an example these choices we make
Speaker 1: about what type of performer do you want to bring
Speaker 1: in for a scene. Both of my parents are in
Speaker 1: the movie and they each have a spoken line, and
Speaker 1: both of them after they did the scene, they were like,
Speaker 1: oh no, I was terrible. I ruined it. Oh no,
Speaker 1: what did I do? And I was like, Mom, Dad,
Speaker 1: if I thought a pro actor would have been the
Speaker 1: better funnier option for this scene. I would have called
Speaker 1: the pro actor. I called because I think this is
Speaker 1: the better funnier option for this scene.
Speaker 2: When did you actually lock the picture?
Speaker 1: The picture happened, I want to say end of twenty
Speaker 1: twenty three. And then so from there was the mad
Speaker 1: dash to get the color correction, sound design, music score,
Speaker 1: and the digital The effects were all done in parallel
Speaker 1: with process where I would have a kind of version
Speaker 1: of a scene, I would send it to Owen and
Speaker 1: he would send me some cuts back and I would
Speaker 1: cut them in and lock around them.
Speaker 2: Is fantastic Fest your premiere? Yeah?
Speaker 1: This is the world premiere of Ajor. Goest to the
Speaker 1: dog park, really excited to share it with an audience
Speaker 1: and hopefully people love it. And then after this we're
Speaker 1: moving on to Beyond Fest in Los Angeles.
Speaker 2: And have your friends seen this? Have you shown this
Speaker 2: to your cast and crew?
Speaker 1: And we had a special screening in preview screening in
Speaker 1: North Dakota and everybody worked on it and all of
Speaker 1: our friends and family got to see it. Ben, how
Speaker 1: would you say that was? It was a really proud
Speaker 1: moment for me. We were doing a Q and A afterwards,
Speaker 1: and it's a big, silly movie. And I was trying
Speaker 1: really not to cry before I went out there because
Speaker 1: it worked not three years and I almost succeeded. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So that was part of the Fargo Film Festival, and
Speaker 1: they were really excited too. They had this local film
Speaker 1: going on. They're like, yeah, let's get the opportunity to
Speaker 1: show a preview of this thing. And at the time
Speaker 1: we didn't know what was going to happen with the
Speaker 1: movie wasn't even finished yet. They they excited to see
Speaker 1: it at its current state and share with everybody.
Speaker 6: I was, yeah, I'm so exciting as we get to
Speaker 6: go to Los Angeles next and we'll be in a
Speaker 6: Chicago area film festival in November and hoping to keep going.
Speaker 2: When you ended this one with a bit of a
Speaker 2: cliffhangers are going to be another AJ film in their future.
Speaker 1: I made the comparison to Antwine Twinel earlier, and so
Speaker 1: perhaps in another ten years we'll get back together and
Speaker 1: do something with the Aja character. But in the meantime,
Speaker 1: it ends in a certain way, and if anyone wants to,
Speaker 1: let's say, get together and help produce a syndicated fantasy
Speaker 1: action TV series in the style of you know, Warrior
Speaker 1: Princess starring AJ going on adventures every week. I think
Speaker 1: that'll be a logical.
Speaker 2: Next step that. Yeah, I would definitely be down for that.
Speaker 2: I would watch that one religiously. What about you, guys,
Speaker 2: What else are you working on these days?
Speaker 4: I can't say I'm doing anything too much creatively really,
Speaker 4: and myself, I'm just trying to market this and get
Speaker 4: this out.
Speaker 1: And then for me, I'm back work in the animation industry.
Speaker 1: So my day gig there as a supervising director on
Speaker 1: a cartoon at Warner Brothers. And while I'm working on that,
Speaker 1: making plans to shoot another micro budget feature, hopefully next year.
Speaker 6: The only thing I guess is that I don't do that.
Speaker 6: The filmmaking is the full time job. Is my first
Speaker 6: time producing a movie was. I was trying to do
Speaker 6: some writing for Toby's podcast, Toby's Tall Tales, which you
Speaker 6: should check out.
Speaker 1: If you have listened to.
Speaker 6: I hope to actually complete that because I had a
Speaker 6: couple of my thought pretty good ideas where you could
Speaker 6: do a second season when.
Speaker 1: And then yeah, if we get to do to do
Speaker 1: the next thing, we'll probably all be the same team
Speaker 1: coming back to do another project, hopefully sooner revenue later.
Speaker 2: Is there a good place for people to keep up
Speaker 2: with AJ Goes to the Dog Park.
Speaker 1: I suppose that you just follow my social media Toby
Speaker 1: Toby Jones, and that's where I'm posting all the updates
Speaker 1: so far, and so far, we've got this festival run.
Speaker 1: Then we'll see how that goes, and then hopefully the
Speaker 1: world at large gets a chance to see.
Speaker 2: It after that, guys have a great time. Watching AJ
Speaker 2: Goes to the Dog Park really tickled my funny bone
Speaker 2: so much so that I'm already starting to spread the
Speaker 2: word just with my friends, and I hope that everybody
Speaker 2: that listens to this podcast gets a chance to check
Speaker 2: it out, because I thought it was more wonderful.
Speaker 6: Thank you, and as someone who's listened to your podcast
Speaker 6: for ten years, that means a lot to me.
