Hi, everybody. We want to thank our sponsor, Legion M. They are a wonderful company. We love working with them. You can go to their website, Legion M. They're also on all the various socials. They do really fun meetups. You can talk to directors. You can become a part of the projects they choose. They even have a program right now where you can help them find

great movies to support. So go to their website to learn more. We also want to remind you that we

have a Patreon that we call Maltreon. You can join us. We have $3, $5, $10, $20 options. You can get

newsletters from my dad, all kinds of neat stuff behind the scenes,

hang out with us, learn about who our guests are before anybody else, and listen to the podcast

before anybody else. Go to patreon.com slash malton on movies for more information.

That's patreon.com slash malton on movies

hey everybody it's Leonard malton and I'm Jesse Malton and you're listening to

Malton on movies and our guest today is Josh Rubin a a multi-hyphenate.

To which my mom goes, I think I know him. Or maybe it's just a really Jewish name.

Very. My middle name is Benjamin. Can you believe it? Joshua Benjamin Rubin. And I think

the Inowitz was cut off on my dad's side before he met my mom. So can you imagine?

We often joke, Moulton Bloom, Moulton Blatt, Moulton Berg, Maltinstein, Maltz.

V.S.C.R. A writer, a director, an actor, an everythinger, and a podcaster, all the things.

And what's crazy is several months ago when the world

still sort of existed we were at sundance together in person if any of you remember what that was

like uh in person we were together on that great balcony and overlooking one of the main streets of the fest.

And we got to hang out with you.

And now, because I follow you on the Instagrams, which everybody else should do,

and then getting to watch this movie, it's like, oh, my God, it all comes together.

Because you share so many of your crazy characters on your

Instagram and it's all, yeah.
