EPISODE 000 - An Introduction

In this intro episode of The Run4Ben Podcast, Jamen Spitzer and director/filmmaker Mike Piccirillo pull back the curtain on the marathon-turned-documentary inspired by Jamen’s dad, Ben, and their work with the Kirk Gibson Foundation for Parkinson’s. They share how a simple idea to film one Detroit Free Press marathon became a six-year “interactive documentary” about family, Parkinson’s, running, indie filmmaking, and what you can expect from the YouTube series, companion podcast, and community around it.
