Gimme Three Podcast - A Series For Cinephiles
Gimme Three is a love letter to one of the most powerful mediums of artistic expression—a love letter to the films that moved us and to the great experiences we've had watching them.
In each episode, hosts Nicholas Ybarra and Bella Efstratis (and frequent special guests) will pick three incredible movies based on a selected theme.
The Gimme Three podcast aims to encourage people to return to the theater and expand their watch lists through fun banter and passionate analysis.

102 - 50 Years of The Rocky Horror Picture Show & Rock Musicals (feat. Max Sopkin)
Nicholas Ybarra and returning guest Max Sopkin celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, the cult classic and the longest-running film in theatrical history.
Nick and Max talk about their personal connection and history with the film, and delve into a hilarious and informative recap of this film and two other cult-classic rock musicals.
- We start, of course, with the reason we’re here, Tim Curry, Susan Surandon, and Barry Bostwick in The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
- Second, we explore the lesser-known sequel (or equal?) to Rocky Horror, Richard O’Brien’s Shock Treatment.
- Finally, one year before Rocky Horror, Brian DePalma had yet another box office bomb turned cult-classic in the brilliant Phantom of the Paradise.
