Show Notes

In Hollywood today with Troy Carlton, who talks about his new film 'Birdies The Movie', shot entirely in North Carolina (and now available on Amazon Prime). The Raleigh native sits down in the studio and talks of how his independent movie about "a washed up golf phenom who gets hired as the pro at a decaying country club where catching a buzz is par for the course" really began with his YouTube channel 'Golf Jokes from Tight Lies';  working with comedian Ryan O'Flanagan and actor Nate Panning; his company Crane House Film and more. We also discuss a special screening in June for his movie at the famous Rialto Theatre in Raleigh! So bring along your popcorn, your cleated golf shoes - okay, maybe leave those at home - and listen to a unique back story from one talented director who made a movie destined to be a golf movie classic!
