Welcome to the second of our four special episodes recorded in the Podcast Lab during the 6th annual Los Angeles Podcast Festival at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles, CA, October 6-8, 2017.  While the change of location from previous festivals presented its own unique set of challenges to those of us in the Lab, we were able to sit down and record with some amazing people, and hope you’ll enjoy the conversations as much as we did.

We spent the weekend recording  in the Podcast Lab with our fellow podcasters and special guests.  We asked new friends to tell us about one film that influenced them to be who they are, and had old friends sit down to catch-up with us.  In this episode, you’ll hear from:

• Gary Serje, podcast fan.
• Graham Elwood, comedian, founder of the Los Angeles Podcast Festival, and host of Comedy Film Nerds and Political Vigilante podcasts.
• Cassi, co-host of Mixed Feelings podcast.
• Amanda, co-host of Mixed Feelings podcast.
  
• Bryan Clar, commentator for Almost Famous Paintball League, and member of the Mixed Feelings Mafia.
• Bert Kreischer, comedian, and host of Bertcast podcast.
• Alisa Gonzalez, Movies Made Me fan and location host for our 2nd Anniversary Celebration recording.
• Rob Flanagan, co-host of Popping The Cherrywood podcast.
• Manny Matos, co-host of Popping The Cherrywood podcast.
