Each week on Cathode Ray Mission, video store nerds Randy & Will plumb the depths of Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, and all the other streaming services to find the best and worst of big-budget cinema blockbusters, direct-to-video cult favorites, and everything in between.
This week special guest Kristee Ono takes us on a trip back to our collective youths with Allan Arkush's 1979 classic Rock 'n' Roll High School. Along with being a promotional vehicle for punk rock pioneers The Ramones, Rock 'n' Roll High School adds a slapstick story of Riff Randell who is on a neverending quest to party hard and be cool.
Kristee Ono is a San Francisco based stand up comedian exploring depression and food obsession with an unwarranted optimism entertaining enough that no one has asked her to stop as of yet. She is a member of the Komedio Comedy a nerd comedy network, a regular debater on "Nerd Rage: The Great Debates Podcast," and co-produces "Mental Health Comedy Hour" in Oakland.
Rock 'n' Roll High School is available on HBO Max
