Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! In Part 3 of our series on the 50th anniversary of 1975, the spotlight turns to the cult classic phenomenon: The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Hosts dive into the film’s enduring legacy and how it became a cultural touchstone for generations of fans.

Joining the conversation are Plaza Theatre owner Chris Escobar and film producer and sound mixer Aron Siegel, who share insights on the movie’s impact, the history of midnight screenings, and how the Plaza Theatre continues to keep the Rocky Horror tradition alive in Atlanta. From audience participation to the film’s lasting influence on pop culture, this episode is a love letter to the weird, wonderful world of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Get ready to do the Time Warp as we explore how a low-budget musical became a beloved institution and what it means to fans today.
