This episode is a fantastic behind the curtain look at a number of nonfiction hits with some fascinating stories from a veteran producer and creative executive. My guest is Russ McCarroll - an Emmy award-winning producer, who is now the CEO and founder of Pocket Square Productions. Prior to that, Russ spent time as a senior vice president of development at both Discovery Channel and the History Channel. And all that came after his time working on NBC's Today show. Some of his many credits include: Sell this House, The Fieldhouse, Alone, The Men Who Built America, Top Gear USA, Mountain Men, Sons of Liberty, Gangland, The World Wars, The Liberator and Knightfall.
Russ shares some incredible insight from his illustrious career, which has entered a new phase, as he runs his own production company with the pressure of selling shows in a competitive environment. We chat about some of his new series like "The Fieldhouse" and "Sell This House" as well as some of his biggest hits from the History Channel: "Alone" and "The Men Who Built America". Plus, he reveals what it was like filming in the White House with Presidents Obama and George W. Bush. You don't want to miss this one!
