Description

How I Got Greenlit is a podcast about how movies are made, who makes them, and what these stories mean. Each week, Alex Keledjian, creator of HBO’s hit indie filmmaking reality series "Project Greenlight," is joined by co-host and fellow film fanatic Sam Levine to discuss both new releases and must-see classics, and how these movies both shape and are shaped by our world. Go to youtube.com/@NextChapterPodcasts to watch the show every Thursday!
