0:00.0	This is a Glassbox Media Podcast.
0:30.0	Welcome to Crawl Space. I'm Tim here today with Lance. Lance, how are you today?
0:39.0	I'm doing fantastic today because mostly we have a guest on that has pretty much restored a lot of my faith in humanity.
0:48.0	Before we get to that, I need you to restore my faith in how you're doing today.
0:53.0	And I hope everyone out there is doing well. Are you able to say you are doing well as well, Tim?
0:59.0	Thank you for asking, Lance. I am doing well today. I really appreciate it.
1:04.0	And I'm really excited to speak with our guests today who's also an old friend of mine.
1:10.0	I met him in Los Angeles, God, 10 years ago or something like that. I'm not really sure.
1:15.0	But he made a documentary that I worked on for a day or two with him that is called Queen Mimi.
1:23.0	And I highly recommend checking out this documentary. Zach Galafanakis is in the documentary.
1:29.0	I think Renee Zellweger is in it briefly as well. But it is a movie that came out in 2014.
1:35.0	It's a documentary about a woman named Mimi Haste who has sadly unfortunately recently passed away.
1:43.0	But she was a homeless woman on the streets of Santa Monica who actually lived in a laundry mat for a period of time.
1:51.0	And Zach Galafanakis and Renee Zellweger actually rented her an apartment and even furnished it.
1:58.0	And they really befriended her. It's an amazing story.
2:01.0	I highly recommend checking out Queen Mimi wherever you get your documentaries.
2:05.0	But Lance, this interview today is mostly about his new project is called the new adventures of Gadon Lev based on a book called the true adventures of Gadon Lev.
2:18.0	And Gadon is a Holocaust survivor Lance. And I just feel like this topic is so important in today's political landscape where it's so hot.
2:30.0	And you have people denying that the Holocaust even happened.
2:34.0	This is an important documentary. And our friend Yinev is making it for very little money. And you can donate to this by going to kickstarter.com and searching the new adventures of Gadon.
2:45.0	And that's G-I-D-O-N-Lev-L-E-V. And you can support this. And the reason why I say this is an important documentary is partially because of what you just said to him.
2:56.0	This topic is still out there. Holocaust deniers and the like. And Gadon is a bridge. And we talk about this in the interview between several generations.
