100% HAPPY Pt. 2 ft. Daniel Starbuck of Skeleton Army • LROL #76

Govt. Film Footage ft. Mike Davis (Dead, White, & Blue) • LROL #77

In this episode of Let's Ruin Our Lives, host Josh Hensley sits down with independent filmmaker Mike Davis, founder of Stag Films and creator of the underground cult film Dead, White, and Blue. Mike discusses his unique "green filmmaking" process, creating feature-length movies entirely from recycled public domain footage, government films, educational films, military archives, and stock footage. We dive into the DIY spirit of independent cinema, exploitation films, punk rock influences, film festivals, low-budget filmmaking, satire, censorship, media literacy, and the realities of film distribution in the streaming age. Mike shares how Dead White and Blue was assembled from over 300 different public-domain films, the challenges of editing thousands of hours of footage, and why satire remains an important tool for political and social commentary. Topics Covered: • Green filmmaking and recycled media • Public domain footage and government archives • Independent film production on a near-zero budget • Exploitation cinema and cult movies • Punk rock's influence on filmmaking • Film festivals and underground cinema • Streaming distribution and Tubi • Satire, politics, and media literacy • DIY creativity and artistic freedom If you're interested in independent filmmaking, underground movies, cult cinema, DIY art, exploitation films, or creative storytelling on a budget, this episode is for you.
