We were thrilled to chat with Jim Carl, the Director of Film at the awesome historic Carolina Theatre about his love of movies, programming the popular Retro film series and much more. The latest episode of the Fan2Fan Podcast is a good one!

What's that? Miyagi-do Karate!

I’ve reached the ‘boot-wearing while listening to Saint Etienne on vinyl’ stage of my life.

If you're finding it hard to believe in... anything these days, just know Yeti believes in you. #yeti #sasquatch

They've done it again. Suede's improbable second life continues with absolute stunner Antidepressants. Yeah there's the nods to The Cure, Siouxsie, Killing Joke and PiL, but this is an immediate album and it's easily up there with their best. #theinsatiableones #suede #themildones

Has there been a craft beer created called Hops on Pops yet? If not there should be. DM me for design ideas. #beer

Do you like Tremors? Do you like creature features? Well have I got a podcast episode for you! We sat down with @thetremorssaga.bsky.social to talk Tremors and its dedicated following. We also coaxed (coerced?) Levi into sharing their list of favorite creature features. Have a listen!

Here's a handy New York Subway map populated with the gangs from The Warriors. Come out and play-ayyyy. #Helvetica #Subway #thewarriors #blueskymovies

Which film reminds you most of your childhood?

I'm not saying I know that 'Night Killer' is going to be in the new Slasher Trash doc coming soon from the good people at CreatorVC Studios, but I am saying it should be! WTF did I just watch? @slashertrash.bsky.social #slashertrash #slashers

You see Robert Davi, Kristy Swanson and D.B. Sweeney above the title and think, "I didn't ask for this pairing of actors but ok Swamp Shark, you have my attention." Then you see HOF third baseman Wade Boggs in the credits. Now you can't not find out what the balls is going on in this movie.

You haven't lived until you catch Jaws ripping some Bob Seger at karaoke.

Attention 80s slasher movie fans! On the latest episode of the Fan2Fan Podcast we're stoked to chat with Daniel Richardson (In Search of Darkness, Terrorbytes) producer of the upcoming documentary Slasher Trash, which aims to cut deep into the genre. fan2fan.libsyn.com/slasher-tras...

Chewie, Leia and Luke in a deleted scene from Star Wars.

Finish the line to this classic song: "Surf dudes with attitudes..."

The double feature we didn't know we needed. Gee Ricky, sorry the Carolina Theatre blew up from all the laughs. Better Off Dead holds up nicely and Three O'Clock High remains an underrated subversive 80s gem.

Signed letter from former NFLer and TV’s Hunter himself, Fred Dryer after we wrote to tell him we named our Boston University broomball team the Fred Dryer Fan Club. We had just lost the intramural championship. Fred inspired us to claim the title the following season. Now that’s greatness.

Yeah yeah Oasis, but has there been a band that's enjoyed a more fulfilling second life than Suede? The shimmering new single "Dancing With the Europeans" suggests not. This is a band aging very gracefully. @suedehq.bsky.social #suede @theinsatiableones.bsky.social

Show me the fever. Wet Hot American Summer at the Carolina Theatre.

Love, exciting and new... #blueskyhorror

Name two albums that perfectly complement each other.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Scored a door prize at the screening of Big Trouble in Little China at the Carolina Theatre. Packed house, tons of laughs, absolute joy of a time.

Just hit 99 here in Durham. I'm sweating my Gretzkys off.

If you feel the pillars of heaven being shook around 7 p.m. eastern this evening, that's just me and good ol' Jack Burton at the Carolina Theatre.

When you reach the end of Big Hollow Road in upstate New York, a whole other world opens up

Hey @thetremorssaga.bsky.social, you’ll be pleased to know that before a screening of the classic cheese that is Gamera vs. Viras the other night at the Carolina Theatre, they ran an original trailer for Tremors!

Batting 3rd, 4th and 5th on the album, (I'm Looking For) Cracks in the Pavement, I Take the Dice and Of Crime and Passion are the three non-single glue that makes Seven and the Ragged Tiger purr.

This Independence Day, celebrate when our country's leaders were mentally strong enough to allow for independence of thought.

I still believe I’m gonna take this for a spin…

Super kind words from Dr. Gangrene himself, Larry Underwood about our interview with him for the Fan2Fan podcast. Sure the $2 million we pocket for each episode is nice, but comments like this are the reason why we do it. :)

We had a great chat on the Fan2Fan Podcast last night with @thetremorssaga.bsky.social, talking some Tremors, some creature features and some stellar movie ideas involving L'Eggs pantyhose. All the bases were covered.

I haven't listened to Bruce Springsteen since I was mowing my lawn when I was 14 and yet 'Dancing in the Dark' just showed up in my Discover Weekly queue. My algorithm is Spotifucked!

I can't think of a better way to escape the chaos, apprehension and cruelty in the world right now than going to see '28 Years Later' tonight!

A Friday the 13th Part 2 and Just One of the Guys shared universe pre-sequel. Stay with me on this one folks. Ted (aka Reptile) spends a memorable summer as a camp counselor in NJ and by sheer drunken luck stays at the bar and avoids the carnage at Crystal Lake. (cont'd.)

The Florida Panthers should do a PSA on fire safety because this team can smother anything.

Pulp's 'Tina' off their new album 'More' is giving me the warmest 70s orange, yellow and brown wall to wall carpet vibes.

All I want to know about this new Superman movie is if the WonderTwins and Gleek make an appearance. I want to Gleek out!

Get thee out to your nearest (preferably independent) bookstore tomorrow and pick up Gyro and the Argonauts! aka the BEST BOOK EVER WRITTEN*: *About a Kid Named After a Sandwich (Volume 1) by Josh Pruett! Use this skeet as your official get out of work pass.

We had a really fun chat with Dr. Gangrene himself, Larry Underwood last night for the Fan2Fan Podcast. Horror hosting, DIY beginnings, Universal monsters, indie comics, creative passion, Gilligan's Island and a lot more. Coming soon to ears near you.

Hard to believe that Red Hot Hockey will have its' 10th go at Madison Square Garden in November. Harder to believe that the logo I designed at BU almost 20 years ago is still going strong! I remain very proud of it and this event.

Where the hell did 'all the sudden' come about all of a sudden?

ABC's 'Many Happy Returns' is a ridiculously fun song to sing. Like the world spinning 'round on it's axis / I know democracy but I know what's fascist

When I met with Corey Feldman to discuss my managing him, he asked me what set me apart. I told him, "Let's dream a little dream together and see what magic we can create." He was sold. He then asked me how many meatballs I wanted. "Meatballs? 4."

Dungeons get a bad rap. I want to rebrand them as the fun places I know they can be. A Fungeon, if you will.

Hiking the Blue Ridge Parkway this morning. Good head space to start the day.

Every time I see you pouring… Bizarre Love Triangle cider at the Asheville Club, Asheville, NC. How could I not get it.

Here's a question for all you BlueSkyers out there: Did Telly Savalas ever have hair?

Can't fight the Seger.

Have we been Poped yet?
