Enthusiastic Life | with Brendan Walsh

Ep 14: Brian Katz | The Business of Big Screens: Film Production, Financing and Fun

Brendan Walsh

I can confidently say I laughed more during this episode than any other on The Enthusiastic Life Podcast.

It was an absolute blast sitting down with Brian Katz of Umbrelic and Anchor Bay Entertainment. We had a wide-ranging, fun, and thoughtful conversation that covered everything from career paths to pop culture debates.

In this episode, we talk about:
🎬 How Brian got his start in the film industry
🤝 Why networking—and who you know—matters more than ever
🖖 Star Trek vs. Star Wars
👨‍👧 Fatherhood and the importance of being present
🎄 And yes… whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie

This was a really fun one, and I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed recording it.

👇 Drop your thoughts in the comments—especially if you have strong thoughts about Die Hard.
