Call Sheet Confidential (formerly Old Guy Tech) is the definitive podcast for the modern video professional. Hosted by industry veterans Michael Samstag and Dave McCauley, this show explores the intersection of classic filmmaking experience and the rapid evolution of production technology.
We go beyond the spec sheets to deliver Battle-Tested Industry Insights. Each episode features candid interviews with world-class Directors of Photography, seasoned Owner-Operators, Creators, Crew, and industry leaders sharing hard-won lessons from the set. We dive deep into the business side of video production, discussing how to navigate shifting markets, manage sustainable careers, and make smart investments in the era of AI and automation.
Whether discussing the soul of vintage glass, the reliability of an FX9, or the frontier of generative video, our focus is always practical. Old Guy Tech is for creators who know that while tools change, the business of storytelling remains your most important asset.
