Ep 64 – Chattin’ with filmmaker Dave Gardner, Growth Busters – Hooked on Growth

Dave Gardner

Dave Gardner

“Dave Gardner has worked as a professional director for over 30 years. During his career he’s directed documentaries and other award-winning projects for a long list of Fortune 500 corporate clients and PBS. He eventually found a successful career serving big business and a life pursuing the “American Dream” were not his Holy Grail.”  It wasn’t long after that Dave came up with the idea to use his talents and resources to produce a film highlighting the destructive consequences of our addiction to consumption.

Basics About the Film GrowthBusters: Hooked on Growth:

1. Non-profit, feature-length documentary to be released 2011.

2. Crowd-Funded (tax-deductible contributions from grass-roots supporters)

3. Crowd-Distributed (supporters are signing up so they can organize community screenings and house parties to view the film)

Dave is one of the coolest modern hippies that I’ve had the pleasure of speaking to.  Listen to learn more about Dave and his soon-to-be released documentary that exposes the powerful forces that keep us addicted to growth.
