On this episode, Jen Strogatz talks to musician, actor, director and filmmaker Robert Schwartzman about the upcoming remastered 4K release of the 1986 cult classic film “RAD,” his band Rooney, and Altavod: a self-distribution platform for filmmakers by filmmakers.
* Fun fact, Philly! Robert’s mother is the actress that played Adrian Balboa in Rocky, Talia Shire!

And for those of you that need your memory jogged, check out Rooney here. We loved their 2003 self-titled album and rediscovered it after speaking to Robert and trust us, it’s worth a listen: Rooney.
Song recommendations: Daisy Duke, I’m Shakin’, Blueside, I’m A Terrible Person, That Girl Has Love. Honestly, that whole album is fantastic.
