Rob, Alex, and Don set up outside the Plaza Theater and dive into Texas-sized movie lore with PR dynamo Kelly Kitchens, silent-era sage Bruce Calvert (Silent Film Still Archive), and raconteur-in-residence Ferris Rookstool. From the roar of a replica Bonnie & Clyde getaway car to late-night laughs with the Maki Horror Picture Show, this episode blends classic cinema geekery with backstage festival buzz. Kelly dishes on the festival’s “True Texas Tales” theme and Garland’s delightfully quirky vibe; Bruce explains why seeing old films in a restored movie palace hits different; Ferris tees up panels, surprises, and the history that shaped these stories. Expect film preservation nerdery, Texas trivia, a little tech talk, and the kind of live-on-location chaos that makes you feel like you’re standing on the square with us, ticket in hand.
