Description
In episode two, Johnny talks to Karl Lock. A former record company insider for EMI and Universal, Karl is currently a movie buyer for JB Hi-Fi, the largest Entertainment retailer in Australia and New Zealand. Karl has an encyclopaedic knowledge of both music and movies, and is a constant treasure trove of information. Our conversation was recorded in early July of 2022 and includes mild spoilers for the film Top Gun: Maverick. We also cover topics such as The Rocky Horror Picture Show, James Caan, Bruce Willis, Kevin Smith and the 24-hour Movie Marathon at the glorious Hollywood Avondale. Many thanks to James Van As who wrote and performed the brilliant music (check out James' superb iPhone game Loco Looper), and Willow Van As who designed the amazing artwork and provided general podcast support.
