What’s crackin’, folks? I’m your host Brad Lea, back again with another episode of Dropping Bombs! Get ready for a raunchy and REAL episode today. But that’s not all! This is a double treat for ya—today’s guest is none other than the director, producer, and all-around Hollywood insider, Matthew Felker. If you’re asking yourself, “Who the f*** is Matthew Felker?” buckle up… He’s the man behind the new docuseries After Baywatch: A Moment in the Sun on Hulu. We talk about what it’s really like to grow up in Hollywood, the highs and lows of the entertainment industry, and his infamous role in singer Britney Spears’ Toxic video (do you recognize him now?). Our second guest is none other than Jeremy Jackson who you will remember as Hobie Buchanon from the smash hit television series Baywatch. Jeremy will be my guest in a future episode so check back for that! It will be a good one!
Matthew shares wild stories, from Britney's video to financing his own multi-million-dollar Baywatch docuseries. He spills all the Hollywood tea, from actors refusing to be associated with their past roles to the backstage politics of Baywatch. He’s got the goods on how stars like David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson became larger-than-life icons—Matthew dishes on how his passion for documentaries took him from being known as "that guy from Britney’s video" to legit. If you haven’t watched After Baywatch yet, well… What are you waiting for?
