Well now, if you’ll pardon the interruption, let me tell you about a curious fellow by the name of Robert Thayer. He was born in the fine city of Baltimore, though you could say he grew up twice—once in body, and once in spirit—on the wild and wandering Eastern Shore of Maryland. It was there, as a young lad, that he learned to wrestle with the wind itself, taking to the skies in airplanes before most boys had mastered a bicycle. By the time he was a mere twenty, Robert had already directed his first feature film. And if that don’t impress you, just wait—there’s more to this tale. At thirteen, while most boys were still complaining about chores, Robert was knee-deep in honest farm work. A bit later, flipping burgers at a fast-food joint through his high school days, he got a taste of grease and sweat, but also a dose of humility. Fast forward, and you’d find him flying airplanes for a living, teaching others how to dance with the clouds as a certified flight instructor. Now, I must tell you, this man wasn’t just a creature of the sky. No, sir. He also wrote more than two dozen screenplays, taught English and Math to Swiss children while living in Switzerland (yes, Switzerland!), and drove limousines and Uber for all manner of curious characters. He even worked the tables in New York City, bussing and waiting like a true professional. But perhaps the grandest trick up his sleeve was his knack for production—over 4,000 commercials and four full-length feature films bear his mark. If there’s anything Robert hasn’t done, well, I’d be surprised to hear it. Now, he’s taken all those strange and wonderful experiences and wrapped them into stories that aim to shake you loose from the predictability of your everyday lives. So sit back, dear reader, because you're in for quite the ride.
