Hold your ears, folks.

It's showtime.

People pay good money to see this movie.

When they go out to a theater, they want cold sodas, hot popcorn, and no monsters in the projection booth.

Everyone pretend podcasting isn't boring.

Shut it off.

Turn it off.

Turn it off.

Hey folks, welcome to a special episode of the projection booth.

I'm your else Mike White.

On this special episode, I am talking with Jonathan Penner, all about the Tribeca Film Festival and their escape from Tribeca series.

The festival runs from June 7th through 18th,

2023, and if you are anywhere near New York, you really need to go and try to get tickets

for these screenings. They sound amazing. Buy those and learn more via tribecafilm.org. Enjoy the interview.

Jonathan Paner, we spoke last year about tribexploitation,

which is a little bit of a mouthful. Yes. But it was a success. Tell me a little bit about how

last year went down and what is happening this year for Tribeca. Glad to be back to talk about

this year, the 22nd running of the Tribeca Festival.

And last year we showed three New York exploitation movies, movies made by New York filmmakers

shot in New York, and it was pretty successful.

But it wasn't really as fully integrated in the festival as I had hoped

it would be, as I tried to make it.
