Interviews-wqam

Filmmaker and South Floridian Billy Corben, known for his 30 For 30 Films The U, The U Part II and Broke, as well as renowned documentary Cocaine Cowboys, joined Marc James and Dave Hyde on 560 WQAM to discuss the state of the University of Miami, future film plans and funny stories from past films.

On how long it's going to take new UM head coach Mark Richt to get the team to the top level: "I think it's going to take years, and the fan base needs to be patient. I think it's only fair and reasonable"

He talked about what could be in The U Part 3 and what the future of the team is.

Billy and Dave share stories on when they've been scared during interviews.

Dave talks about how he covered a boat race and everyone was a Drug Lord, which gets Billy to discuss Cocaine Cowboys and some scary moments.

Billy also talks about a hopeful documentary on former UM and NFL safety Sean Taylor.

He previews his upcoming documentary on John McAfee (the anti-virus guy).

Billy gives his thoughts on OJ Made in America. "There were moments that felt long, but then you go back and think 'what should have been cut out?'"

"They allowed that piece to breathe. Even though you know what's going to happen, it was so effectively told but also entertaining, which is funny to say."
