A year and a half ago we kicked off the show with a look into the homeless situation in town. We’ve been filming stuff for a deeper dive ever since. This is Part 1, a look into what it’s like being unhoused and some of the people who are the frontlines trying to help.

Part 2 will be bigger picture.

Thanks for watching and supporting the show yall. I’m happy to answer any questions yall may have -
From my limited knowledge on the issue.

Now that you’re either hired to be a cook or a server, the only perk would be free movies. But when you think about the horrid hours/holidays of working a theater, does that outweigh the perks?

What’s the difference between working at Alamo and being a runner at a restaurant? I assume the pay is slightly better but even still.

They don’t check tickets anymore so the only time I get to see the love for cinema in an employee’s eyes is when they drop off food.

Why would anyone work here?

For clarification because it seems I didn’t explain my intention clearly: I am in no way blaming people for taking a job. My question was more about why would someone work at Alamo Drafthouse specifically, as opposed to another service industry job that has better hours, etc.

Of course I’m not lambasting people for having a job. Who would do that?

In Denton, it seems the complaints of the killing of the “personal experience” is being listened to- sorta. In the last couple of weeks, after the pre show, they make the managers come in and welcome the audience to the show through a 15 second little speech.

It’s really awkward. I know they don’t want to do it. It feels like a corporate solution to a problem they created.

Any other cities trying this method of enhancing the “experience”?

Sometimes I wish I didn’t have deadlines because stories keep happening that fit the theme. But enough about politics.

This month’s episode is about staying joyful despite the struggles. I got to speak with The Art Room, some street preachers, I covered the Bearded Monk coming out of the closet, an art cult, and met a bunch of baby animals.

All that and more in this meditative episode! Enjoy yall.

We’ll be returning to having public screenings soon. Looking at doing them block party style so we can get more people and more focus.

Thanks for supporting the show, everyone! What other stories or episodes would you like to have me cover?

ChatGPT tells me I made it up. Please help me stay sane.

I’m pretty sure there’s a Voyager episode where the crew go to an abandoned research facility and find the scientists have been either killed and/or fused with the walls.

The way it was presented gave me nightmares when I was a kid.

Any chance yall know what episode I’m talking about?

Thanks so much!

Edit: thank you! Mystery solved. It’s VOY 1x10 State of Flux!
