The Unscripted Interview: PJ Starks, Eric Huskisson, Blood Moon Pictures
PJ Starks and Eric Huskisson from the Owensboro-based Blood Moon Pictures join us for this episode of the podcast. PJ, as you may know, is the father of Unscripted: An Indie Film Experience. He brought the idea to DCPL roughly ten years ago and we ran with it. PJ, Eric, and I discuss the early days of the series, the intensity of the Volumes of Blood shoot, and their two post-VOB films, VOB 2: Horror Stories and 13 Slays till X-mas.
Join us at 7 pm on August 20 for the third night of Unscripted 2022. We will screen three segments from 13 Slays with PJ & Eric in attendance to deliver a live commentary. If you’re listening to this after the August 20, we encourage you to get a time machine. We’re sure it’ll be a lot of fun.

The Unscripted Interview: Shane Devon, The UFO Girl
Since Unscripted: An Indie Film Experience is coming back, we thought we'd also resurrect the podcast. This episode features an interview with Shane Devon, a musician and filmmaker from Daviess County, about his music, record label, and his film The UFO Girl. We'll be screening that on August 6 as part of Unscripted.
