Comedians Paco Romane and George Chen love watching documentaries. They also love interviewing interesting people with strong opinions about their favorite docs.
The idea behind this documentary podcast started when Paco sat down to watch all of the PBS 100 best documentaries. Every morning he’d watch one of these documentaries and afterwards he wanted to hear people and filmmakers discuss them. But after searching for a podcast devoted to discussing documentaries and interviewing people that love and make them he came up empty. So he contacted his buddy George Chen, a fellow documentary lover, and together they started ‘Sup Doc’.
Join hosts Paco Romane and George Chen for a special free event with panelists Cory Sklar, Melissa McQueen, Emily Van Dyke, and Frankie G. as they screen the hilarious and short documentary Memorial Day 2000 and then turn the mics on for their panel to dissect, debate and discuss with hilarious results. Past guests include Todd Glass, Emily Heller, Chris Thayer, David Gborie, Jesse Thorn, Esther Ku, Stephen Lynch, Megan Koester, Rodney Ascher and many more.
Digital Journal had this to say, “Sup Doc a brilliant idea and to say that Sup Doc is a one-of-a-kind podcast is not an exaggeration”.
