432. ROBERT REDFORD

On September 16, 2025, the world of entertainment lost a legend: Charles Robert Redford Jr. We all knew him simply as Robert Redford. An actor, director, and producer. A man who would start the Sundance Institute that would eventually launch a film festival in a little town of Park City, Utah that would change the filmmaking landscape for decades, and still does today.

Corey and Freddy talk about the man, who was part of our lives in such a way and for so long, we felt like we knew him. We speak to the movies that moved us whether in front of the camera or behind it, to the unheard voices he raised through the Sundance Film Festival, that would launch the careers of today's household names like Steven Soderbergh and Quentin Tarantino.

We hope you enjoy the all-too-brief chat about a man who made the difference with so many of our lives in our business.

Love and Rockets,

Corey and Freddy

The Sundance Institute
