  • Simply a great podcast!

    Bring a former projectionist at a movie theater from the late 80’s to the early 90’s, this is a great podcast for me. John and his crew do a fantastic job of dissecting the ins and outs of 30 year old films. Having the pleasure of meeting John personally only adds to my enjoyment of this podcast. If you enjoy the movies from your past, then I highly recommend checking out the 30 something movie podcast!
