Meet Carl Hansen! Carl is a Director, Producer, and Disability Advocate and he lives in Los Angeles. He's an award-winning filmmaker and Emmy-winning producer who has been a Co-Executive Producer and Supervising Producer on such shows as the cultural phenomenon Shark Tank and the groundbreaking Boston Med.

Most importantly, Carl is one of my oldest friends and I’m super excited to share this laughter-filled conversation with you all. We chat about our early shared passion for film, the importance of paying it forward, and what it means to be a diversity & inclusion advocate especially when it comes to the disabled community and Hollywood.

Mike Medavoy - Film Producer: Meet Mike Medavoy! With a career spanning six decades and over 300 feature films, you can imagine my surprise when I got a response to a Twitter DM I sent out in a moment of boldness. Oscar-winning Producer, Mike Medavoy, agreed to be on Blissful Spinster. Being the kid that grew up wanting to find out who was MAKING the films I loved, I’ll admit, I was a mix of nervous and starstruck to meet Mike, he was, after all, part of the teams that were responsible for such films as - One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Rocky, Apocalypse Now, Network, Platoon, Silence of the Lambs, Philadelphia, The Thin Red Line, Black Swan, and Shutter Island… Just to name a few. Mike was open and insightful during our chat and the thing I loved most, was learning how much he valued the collaborative nature of making films.
