Born and raised in the suburbs of Kansas City, Garrett has spent way too much of his life watching movies. From a very early age he was drawn to classics like Jaws, Back to the Future, and The Empire Strikes Back while at the same time developing a taste for guilty pleasures like Rocky IV, Teen Wolf, RAD, and American Ninja.

Throughout high school and college, the obsession turned to countless trips to Blockbuster for new releases, Best Buy for adding to the personal movie collection, or Video Update for $.50 rentals of so-bad-they’re-good titles like John Stamos’ Born to Ride or Stallone’s Death Race 2000. On top of all this were outings to favorite local movie theaters which varied between midnight showings at the cineplex and cheap showings of films no longer in at the large chain theaters, but not yet available on DVD.

These days, trips to the theater are harder to come by for anything that’s not a family movie. Thankfully streaming subscriptions combined with Twitter and Letterboxd help feed the movie addiction. The Two Views Movies podcast is the next evolution in a lifetime of obsession with film.
