    Honoring Leon Ichaso - in honor of Film Forum Retrospective, talking to Manuel Arce

    Starting Friday January 5th and running through Thursday January 11th, Film Forum in NYC is hosting a retrospective of some of Leon Ichaso's most loved movies, shot in Nueva York. They're showing EL SUPER, CROSSOVER DREAMS, SUGAR HILL, PIÑERO, EL CANTANTE. 
    In Honor of the well deserved retrospective - Miami should be doing something like this...Leon se lo merece.  we spoke to the Co-Writer and Producer of El Super and Crossover Dreams, the wonderful Manuel Arce, about Leon, his life and career and specifically the two beloved films they made together - but also all of Leon's work and the hallmarks of his take on film, crafting some of the most ground breaking, unique, truthful and artful independent films ever made - and Leon's bold take on life and his great way with actors.

    Kiele - Kiele - Kiele - a talk with the groundbreaking performer, producer and music and visual artist

    Kiele - Kiele - Kiele - a talk with the groundbreaking performer, producer and music and visual artist

    Kiele is a musician and visual artist from Miami who makes some of the most groundbreaking, groovy, funky, and fresh tracks that you've ever heard. She backs it up with some of the most creative videos being made - and she does it all with a Miami flavor so unique she stands with any of the artists who've made Miami part of their vibe. 
    She's also a producer and actress who recently appeared in the film Plantadas. We talked about her music and videos and her activism - she's very involved in the cause of raising awareness about lack of freedom in Cuba - and just talked about the act of balancing it all. Gen ñ founder Bill Teck was thrilled to talk to someone that talented, that smart and that unique - but who was also such a thoughtful artist, reinterpreting Miami and it's cultura in a whole new way. We think you'll really enjoy the talk - but we think you'll enjoy discovering this fantastic new artist even more. She's bringing a whole new dimension to Miami.

    Nite Owl Theater: The Radical Moviegoing Experience that Miami Deserves

    Nite Owl Theater: The Radical Moviegoing Experience that Miami Deserves

     
    Part abandoned amusement park, part roadside haunted house, part Sid & Marty Kroft Supershow , part working video store and palace of wonders - there’s no moviegoing experience in America quite like what Nayib Estefan is doing with the Nite Owl Theater (which is really a cinema) - but theater might be the right name for it.
    With the projectionist as DJ,  with the amazingly immersive Experience that he’s created around watching a movie - if you love cinema and you love repertory screenings and you love to be surrounded by Films in an exciting/creative/fun way with great attention to detail, with tremendous love of process and intent but still with a terrific sense of fun you owe yourself to check out Nite owl Theater in the Design District and to listen to this podcast and interview with Nayib Estefan and Eric Zaldivar would been involved with this fantastic creation and gift to moviegoers for a few years now.
    Eric is an actor ,writer and director living in LA, who makes some of the films that show prior to the to the movies at Nite Owl and Nayib is the impresario and mastermind behind what has to be one of the most creative moviegoing experiences in the United States.
    Miami deserves this kind of thinking, this kind of cinema, this kind of attention to doing something new and exciting - it's time to celebrate that it's here. 
    I’ve been begging him to be on this podcast since I first started attending his Secret Celluloid Society screenings at different venues around town but now with the opening of his own official space in the Design District I finally convinced Nayib to sit down with me for an interview. I spoke to him and Eric about cinema, about where the grindhouse means the art-house, about The Great Peanut Butter Conspiracy, renting movies with your Abuelo and what makes for a great cinematic experience. Nayib has created one most interesting things going in Miami and it was a thrill to get to talk about Nite Owl & Secret Celluloid Society - Movie Aficionados and lovers of what's great, Take Note!

    John Leland: Happiness Is a Choice You Make

    John Leland: Happiness Is a Choice You Make

    John Leland is an acclaimed writer for the New York Times who’s new book, Happiness is a Choice You Make: A Year Among the Oldest Old is a New York Times Bestseller. In a series of profiles with a diverse group of older Americans Leland shares what he’s learned about living from this fine group of folks. In the book, he traces the life lessons he’s picked up from them – in a way that old comes with wisdom. For this former Rock writer for Spin, opening his heart this couldn’t have been easy and certainly was scary. Still – Leland’s fearlessness as an author and investigator of life shines through. The same guy who put Lisa Lisa and Sa-Fire on the cover of Spin mag, and co-profiled (with Veronica Chambers) Generation ñ in Newsweek – brings the critical eye he brought to books like Hip: A History and Why Kerouac Matters to this beautiful and hopeful tome. It was a blast to talk about his new book, with my old friend John, who I first met back in 1999 when he wrote that Newsweek article on gen ñ. If you’re in Miami he’ll be at Books & Books on Monday. He’s in Broward on Tuesday – check your dates. And for quick wisdom, give this podcast a listen.
