About this listen
In this heartfelt and entertaining episode, Newell and Greg take a nostalgic stroll down memory lane as they pay tribute to the iconic actor, director, and environmental advocate, Robert Redford. The duo shares their personal admiration for Redford’s storied career, from his breakout roles in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and The Sting, to his more profound impact behind the camera with Ordinary People and the creation of the Sundance Film Festival.
But this episode goes beyond the Hollywood highlights. Newell and Greg explore Redford’s dedication to political and environmental causes, his status as a reluctant celebrity, and his ability to maintain artistic integrity in a changing industry. Along the way, they mix in plenty of laughter, trivia, and classic “People, Politics and Pork” charm, complete with Greg’s surprise quiz and a spirited discussion on how Redford might’ve handled social media today.
Whether you're a longtime fan of Redford or just curious about why he mattered so much to American culture, this episode is a touching reminder of how film, friendship, and values intersect.
