E354 – Ayleen Takes Filmed By Bike On The Road

Filmed By Bike is a Portland cultural institution that has gone from humble beginnings to its present home at the Hollywood Theater – and your town’s most suitable venue!  We chat with festival founder Ayleen Crotty (likely a member of the 5 timers’ club, though we forgot to count) about this year’s events and how this year’s batch of films could play anywhere there is demand for them as she facilitates gatherings with the same content as the flagship event in new cities around the world.  Check out the info on the webpage to get Filmed By Bike booked for your area!  And we are joined by #MascotOtis. Also: Aaron orders some bike parts and Brock reads the fine print on his credit card’s car rental insurance coverage.
