When comedian Marc Maron had indie filmmaker Lynn Shelton as a guest on his WTF podcast in 2015, the two hit it off and kept in touch. Later she directed one of his standup specials and the two worked together on the Netflix series ‘GLOW.’ They also started planning to make a movie together, but Shelton says she struggled to get Maron to help her finish the script. Finally he gave it to her straight: "I said look, if you want to make a movie with me, why don’t you just go write one?” Turns out, she did just that. Marc Maron and Lynn Shelton tell us about making their new caper movie ‘Sword of Trust.’
