    We release podcast Episode 9 this week, celebrating our the beginning of summer. While typical blockbusters may be put on hold (or at least relegated to streaming), they still present some of the most enjoyable forms of escapism this side of Tinsel Town.

    For this episode, Mark Ziobro is joined by Matt DeCristo, as they discuss one of their favorite summer films, 1984’s “The Karate Kid.” The duo discuss the launching of this franchise, its coming of age motif, love story, and more.
