hosts Kevin Mumphrey, Victoria V.A. Jones, and Karsten Hyde-Fargason welcome filmmaking couple Kyle and Zuzu Weingart, the creative minds behind the feature film Cuisine de l'Apocalypse.

The Weingarts discuss how their shared love for movies—from It's a Wonderful Life to Mel Brooks and B-movies like Tremors—inspired them to pursue filmmaking. Zuzu shares her unusual start in Japanese refrigerator commercials, and Kyle recounts how Zuzu motivated him to leave a gas station job to go to film school.

They detail the challenges and dynamics of working together as a married couple and parents on projects like their first $5,000 feature film, The Waiting Game, which battled unexpected four feet of Montana snow. Zuzu also discusses the heartbreak and silver lining of having her scene with Nicolas Cage cut from the film Butcher's Crossing (which earned her a SAG card).

Finally, they dive into their new project, Cuisine de l'Apocalypse. Kyle reveals the film was inspired by his love for cooking shows and Gilligan's Island, aiming to be a fun, unpretentious movie. Zuzu explains how they secured funding, including a $50,000 film grant and a supportive private investor, after starting their production company, 99 Productions, right before the 2020 pandemic.
