I'm pretty sure I've told you this, but I'm going to say it again.  Social media is an incredible way to network and meet people without ever really meeting them.  Through my collaboration with the folks at the Feelin' Film Podcast, I have had the pleasure of crossing virtual paths with Chad Hopkins, the host of The Cinescope Podcast.  He cordially invited me on as a guest for a podcast talk on John Avildsen's The Karate Kid as an off-shoot sample of American values just in time for Independence Day.  Take a listen and please give Chad's fine site a Facebook like, a RSS subscribe, and a Twitter follow!
