The HOVG Podcast: Brett Rapkin

This week, Shawn Anderson and Lou Olsen talk with Brett Rapkin, the writer and director of the movie “Spaceman”.

The filmmaker talks about working with the dreamy Josh Duhamel, hanging out with Josh’s wife Fergie and, of course, the enigma that is former Montreal Expos and Boston Red Sox pitcher Bill Lee.

Got to throw out the first pitch at the Dodgers/Redsox game. Then hit up the #SPACEMAN premiere. Epic day. Now it’s back to work on #transformers.
