Brint Davy on Alamo Drafthouse’s No-Phone Policy Debate (Hour 1)

from Nite Lite with Pete Schwaba and Greg Bach · host Pete Schwaba and Greg Bach

Culture critic Brint Davy joins Pete and Greg to discuss his effort to reinstate a no-phone policy at the famous Alamo Drafthouse theaters. While the policy has long been praised by moviegoers who want a distraction-free experience, the lift of the ban for phones to order food, has created outrage among loyal fans, including Brint. Brint has started a Change.org petition that asks patrons to put -- and keep -- their phones in their pocket.
