Host
School district tech director by day, movie podcaster by night, and dad/husband always — John’s love of movies began at an early age watching many of his lifelong favorites with his dad. His formative movie-watching years were shaped by The Blues Brothers, Superman II, the Star Wars trilogy, the Muppets, and Amadeus… among many others. John leans toward Steven Spielberg, Ron Howard, Robert Zemeckis, Sam Raimi, and Richard Donner as favorite directors. His ears perk up when you play any score by James Horner, John Williams, and Alan Silvestri.
