Hello, my name's Justin the Klu, and I'm here today with Will Sloan.

And you're listening to The Important Cinema Club. And today, ah, we're doing a little bit of a self-indulgent episode.

Folks, if you are listening to this podcast for the very first time, don't start with this episode.

Start with another episode, because on this episode, Justin and I are going to be talking about

our vacation.

Then again, if they do want us crystallized, I think this is a good episode to start on.

Well, a lot of things that are of mutual interest to us will be discussed in

this episode because we went to the Mahoning Valley in Pennsylvania, way out in the sticks,

and we went to a place that we've wanted to go to for a very, very long time, the Mahoning Drive-in.

This place is heaven on earth because they show culty and exploitation and trash

movies on 35 millimeter film all year round and that's all they do. I was looking at their

summer schedule hoping against hope that I would see something that I could convince one of my

friends to drive us to because I personally don't drive. I don't have a car. So I need to somehow

generate enough interest in someone that is a good friend to go to one of these driving things.

And oh boy, they were doing a schlockorama weekend. And when we looked at what the schedule was,

Will instantly said, let's go. Yep, we're going to this. No contest. Well, I don't

want to spoil what it is. We'll go through it beat by beat with the big reveal coming at the end with.

I would like to maybe bookend this episode, though, with one particular subject. I am going to

leap to the very, very end and tell you about a tourist attraction that we went to about an hour

away from the drive end. Which was not attraction that we went to about an hour away from the drive-in.

Which was not planned until we got to the hotel room we were staying at.

Yeah, so we got to our crappy motel, and, you know, the three stooges just happened to cross my mind, as they always do.
