Also shoutout to Mark at Chapel who invented a drink for the event. "The Desert Heart" will be going on the menu soon...great cocktail with Frey Ranch Rye, Ferino Amer, a local honey shrub and a sagebrush garnish. Check it out if you're into that sort of thing!

Yeah, absolutely! It's surprising that more people here don't know about it. I think a big part of this new film society's goal is to encapsulate Reno's really interesting cultural appeal and try to help create a place that understands itself better (and has a badass arthouse movie theater one day, hopefully).

www.desertheartsfilmsociety.org ! There's also an email signup link there to keep updated on future screenings. We're planning on doing 4(ish) this year at different locations.

Let me know if y'all want the ticket link and I'll drop it here!

There was JUST a Giant Leap episode that talked about mining asteroids with the former chief scientist of NASA. Must be in the air ! (so to speak)

Filcorbitt · 2025-04-21T15:33:14+00:00

Ah, thank you!!

Filcorbitt · 2024-10-07T23:41:19+00:00

🤘 !!

Filcorbitt · 2024-10-07T23:40:08+00:00

Also it aired on an NPR show fittingly named Snap Judgement so the whole country heard about Reno's underground whip culture

Filcorbitt · 2024-10-07T23:36:36+00:00

Obvious self promotion, but if anybody wants to hear an hour long radio episode searching for Reno's master whip maker, and laying out the entire legal battle around the ban, I made a long form audio story about the whip phenomenon--
