What's up, Knicks fans? We are so excited to announce that this summer Fanatics Fest is returning

to New York City, taking over the Javitt Center from Thursday, July 16th to Sunday, July 19th.

Catch live podcasts and panels featuring some of the biggest names in sports while experiencing

interactive activations from top leagues and brands.

You can grab exclusive merch and discover one-of-a-kind memorabilia from sports and entertainment,

buy, sell, and trade collectibles with hundreds of top dealers. Connect with fans around the world who share

your passion for sports. Tickets are on sale now at fanaticsfest.com, and when you use promo code

It's an extra day of the world's number one sports fan festival coming together under one roof,

and you don't want to miss it.

Thank you. Hey there, Nix fans. How you doing? It's your boy Jonathan Macri with you for another edition of the Nix Film School Beat Report.

I am pleased to be joined by a gentleman who, well, he has layers, folks.

Sometimes he's like McAll Bridges and just takes all the shots that you could possibly want to give him,

results be damned.

Sometimes he's like Carl Anthony Towns, looking around wondering, why won't someone recognize my prodigious talent?

And sometimes he's like Jeremy Sohan, who just wonders, why am I here and what am I

supposed to be doing?

None other than the one and only Fred Katz of the Athletic.

Leave it to you to intro podcast with something that is somehow an insult to every single person that you mentioned.

Myself and everybody else.
