Blister Cinematic is back, and we’re coming in hot — hot as in, Hot Dog…The Movie. Joining Jonathan to talk about this 40-year-old cult favorite is Mountain Gazette owner, Mike Rogge, and they dive in to discuss how well this ski comedy holds up; its impact on ski films; what’s aged the best; what’s aged the worst; and more. (Also definitely worth checking out: Blister member Pete Brantley’s incredible Hot Dog PowerPoint Presentation)
