CONVERSATIONS WITH CALVIN — WE THE SPECIES

Hosted by Calvin Schwartz

Meet MICHAEL HUSAIN: “A year ago, we met for a Zoominterview (like this interview) as Michael’s riveting documentary, ‘The WaitingGame’ was screening at the Garden State Film Festival. Instant chemistry. ‘TheWaiting Game’ is a powerful documentary that explores how the ABA (AmericanBasketball Association) profoundly shaped professional basketball we knowtoday. At 6’5”, I love basketball. Michael is a director, producer, writer, andnarrator. The founder of Good Vibes Media and the winner of many NationalSports Emmy Awards. ESPN is in his resume as well. Michael has now created theReelist Indie Film Club. Revolutionary. Necessary. Brave. He graduated fromIndiana University. We’re fellow Big Ten guys. He’s happy beyond as IU won theNational Championship (football). The purpose of this intro is to induceviewing/signing up. Here are particles of energy. Documentary streaming.Reelist pays filmmakers right up front, so they have funds to continue. Thereare Q&A periods to ask questions. Major streamers don’t do this. Hugelyreasonable to sign up. First 2 months free. Michael is brilliant, eloquent,passionate, and imaginative. He’s building a community. Promotes good stories.Helping filmmakers. I love documentaries. I love his journey. And it’s so easyto feel his passion. Bottom line. Documentaries are life, learning, andlessons. Time well spent. Transforms my life,” Calvin
