Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.
Kayla Baken is a Comedy Writer and Director with a passion for telling stories about ballsy women who defy societal norms. In 2018 she completed the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television’s Professional Program in Writing for TV and was named the “Best Comedy Pilot” winner of the program’s annual pilot writing competition. In 2020 she was named a quarter-finalist in the Final Draft Big Break Screenwriting Competition and has since created her own comedy web series, New Yorkers in LA, which she writes, directs, produces, and stars in.
