You may remember me as the director of such films as @LongStrangeDoc, My Kid Could Paint That, The TIllman Story, and Lead Paint: Delicious But Deadly.
I've posted the entirety of the interview we did with the brilliant, menschy @SteveSilberman for our film Long Strange Trip. Worth watching, even if you have to FF through a few camera adjustments, etc. Hit the orange link on the bottom left. amirbarlev.com/long-strange-…

And to think… all those hours laughing my ass off to Let’s Make a Dope Deal and Basketball Jones. Glad I could finally give back a little. Thanks for the inspiration @tommychong!
Just watched a Greatful Dead doc.! Fantastic! I finally found out what all the fuss was about! They could play! And they got high when they played! So much love of playing music! And so free! I am now a Dead Head.
