The Profit Went To Mars

While watching The Profit with Marcus Lemonis about a cheese shop in New York City, my good friend Tyson, owner of Mars Cheese Castle in Kenosha, came on screen, much to my delight.  Turns out that Marcus also has deep Wisconsin roots as he graduated from Marquette University.  Small world, and a wonderful one when … Continue reading →

Passing Into Eternity

So sad at the passing of the legendary Bart Starr. He was inspiring to me when I met him as a kid (as I express enthusiastically in the film), and I was happy to have met him again while filming the documentary. I even had the pleasure of exchanging emails with him after that. These … Continue reading →
