Today on the podcast we have another legendary industry veteran, producer, and manager: Craig Baumgarten (@craig_baumgarten). Craig’s story makes Hollywood dreams seem possible. He moved to Hollywood because of a “feeling” and met superstars like Richard Gere by hosting parties at a fancy house he was crashing at. Though jobless at the time, he climbed his way to an executive role at Paramount, and went on to produce classic films like Hook (1991) with Robin Williams and Shattered Glass (2003). In this episode of the podcast, Craig talks about working with Speilberg, getting fired at an abandoned nuclear power plant, and what it’s like to file a lawsuit against some of the most notorious giants in the entertainment business.

Craig’s collaborations with BondIt include the Buffalo 8 Post Production and BondIt financed and Executive Produced film Castle Falls (2021).
