11/18/19 @9:30am pst - Director Ted Haynes of ConPro Films joined host to talk about his film, TICS

LISTEN to today's show with Ted Haynes!

In July a team of amazing filmmakers – with credits that include Netflix MindHunter, Fear the Walking Dead, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer - gathered to produce a short film with a social impact. Tics is a unique take on mental illness, the need to ask for and receive help, and the consequences when help isn’t received.

The producers have all been personally impacted by mental illness and we believe strongly in the importance of our story. However, we cannot share it with the world without additional support. Right now, talented individuals are hard at work finishing Tics on the promise of future payment. The producers are currently hosting a crowd funding campaign to cover the costs of post-production. Based on the quality and content Tics has been selected for Fiscal Sponsorship to operate as a 501(c)3 non-profit. This means all the selfless contributions to support Tics are tax deductible!


Mental illness remains a topic that demands greater awareness beyond traditional means. With your support Tics will create a new audience - one not otherwise enlightened to the topic - and drive greater awareness for change. We appreciate the opportunity to share our story and your consideration to contribute to the success of our film.
