You Know This Bullsh*t Is Crazy, Right? w/ Will Adams
This week on Brewsing Banter Podcast, the Legendary Brew Crew links up with Chicago filmmaker, writer, and producer Will Adams, the creative mind behind the viral satirical “Tube-E Movie” everyone’s been talking about.
We dive into the world of indie filmmaking, internet culture, comedy, and the accidental art of making a “bad” movie on purpose. Will breaks down how years behind the camera, learning through failure, and understanding the audience led him to creating one of the funniest indie concepts out right now.
From wild continuity errors and over-the-top acting to serious conversations about Black filmmakers, streaming platforms, and betting on yourself creatively, this episode is packed with laughs, gems, and pure chaotic energy.
