The Weekly Check In - With Ruben Fleischer

(Part of The Weekly Check In series)

Ruben Fleischer, where do I start, I don’t EVER know where Ruben is, from this quick check in, I guess I can see why. I think the first time I realized how I could never keep up, was when I was watching the Chuck & Buck DVD commentary and his voice started coming through the speakers.

Since then he’s made music videos, produced TV shows, and now he’s onto directing movies. Here are links to his daily blog and his website to find out more.

RR: What are you currently working on or just finished that you’re excited about?

Ruben: We just turned in the Nick Thune pilot script to ABC. We are waiting to hear back if they are going to let us go and shoot the pilot episode. It’s very exciting!

RR: Where have you traveled so far this month?

Ruben: Just got back from NY. It was my first ever cross country private jet experience. Pretty cool. We made it there in 4 hours and 16 minutes. NY is funner than LA. I haven’t partied till 5 in the morning in LA in a long time.

RR: Favorite music right now?

Ruben: I don’t have anything too cool to drop on the hipsters. I guess I’d say Vampire Weekend as my favorite new music. But I pretty much just listen to old soul music, hip hop circa 1989, and girlie music.

RR: Best food you’ve had in your neighborhood lately or while you were traveling?

Ruben: As I have just moved, I guess I can claim it as my new neighborhood, but Mozza is probably my current favorite restaurant in LA. I ate at a cool spot in Green Point this weekend called the Queen’s Hideaway. Very comforting food.

RR: Anything else you want to mention?

Ruben: My dog (Claude) will occasionally howl at the top of his lungs for no rational reason, and it is making me crazy. I don’t know what to do about it.
