About this episode
Phil and David have Apollonia's Pizza and a delicious conversation with director, producer, writer Allen Hughes who first made his name as one of The Hughes Brothers who brought the world films like 1993's "Menace II Society" and 1995's "Dead Presidents." David got to know and love Allen when he served as a Creative Consultant on Allen's brilliant 2017 documentary series "The Defiant Ones" about Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine. They reunite to catch up and discuss Allen's brilliant new FX smash documentary series "Dear Mama: The Saga of Afeni and Tupac Shakur." And David reveals a painful memory of the time that he passed on a chance to work for Steve Jobs at Apple. Follow @Hughes2Society on Twitter and look forward to his new documentary about Arnold Schwarzenegger and upcoming biopic about Snoop Dogg.
