Popcorn Restaurant: A Movie Theater Podcast

We try to raise money for an independent movie theater and we kind of do but we get zoom bombed. Justin Miller Repent.

We're Back! In the first of our monthly episodes while we wait for theaters to return, we talk about the AMC stock gaming, the Warner Brothers/HBO Max bad decisions, and Brad and Jordan's private theater rentals!

HEY! We are going to go monthly until it’s looking like theaters are going to come back. Here us talk about pretty much everything except movie theaters in our (for now) last weekly episode. We’ll see you next month! Also, this episode was recorded BEFORE that insane Warner Brothers news.

It’s a repeat this week! But we’ve been doing really good lately so it’s okay.

Jordan here. I’m not on this episode, so I don’t know what it’s about.

This week, we go over all of the actual GOOD NEWS for movie theaters and the world. We also talk geckos! Happy 75th episode.

Okay, most instead chose to donate to our fundraiser for The Okra Project (theokraproject.com), which provides meals to Black trans people who need them, as made my Black trans chefs! Neat! We raised $585, but you should keep it going by donating directly to them or to other important causes right now!

And teens on Twitter roll their eyes,Their snark to brag their lacked surprise.And it’s hard to come to the defenseOf a business model that made no sense,Or a card that took two months to get,But it’s not just them who is in debt. So many times to them we oweFor all the showtimes they could show.My MoviePass, my scarlet friend,I’ll stay with you til the very end. Some theaters called you ticket squattersWhile ArcLights sell $10 waters.You sold my data. And that’s okay.If it helped, I’d give you DNA.For all your gifts at such low cost,It’s better to have loved and lost.My eyes were open, my heart set free,To wonders that I might not see.You’re to thank and you’re to blameFor Lady Bird and Molly’s Game.So you who’d take it, defame, or mock itCome pry it from my cold, dead pocket.When the sky is red and brimstone rains,And four horsemen ride to eat our brains,Still I’ll stand on boiling sandMy MoviePass card still in hand.You’ll find me, demons, as you rove,Still checking showtimes at the Grove.If Cthulhu says “It stopped working, kid”Still I’ll smile that it ever did.

There are too many podcasts about movies, but seemingly NONE about the places that house those things, the movie theaters! In Popcorn Restaurant, comedians Magi Calcagne, Brad Beideman and Jordan Wold visit and review every movie theater they can possibly visit, and they hardly ever get distracted. This week the hosts try to come up with a title for the show. It does not go well. Episode 1 comes out on March 8!
