School's out for summer and we're talking Rock 'N' Roll High School, the 1979 film starring The Ramones. Riff Randell (PJ Soles), a rock & roll fan, wants to get her song to The Ramones. Meanwhile, her friend Kate Rambeau (Dey Young) searches for her first love. It's a tale of loud music, exploding mice, pizza and wheat germ.

We're joined by a host of Rock 'N' Roll High School alumni from director Allan Arkush to cinematographer Dean Cundey to writers Joseph McBride, Russ Dvonch, and Richard Whitley to stars PJ Soles, Dey Young, Clint Howard and Mary Woronov.

Also part of the discussion this week is Adam Schartoff of Filmwax Radio.

We also talk about some of the subsequent Rock 'N' Roll films: Rock & Roll Hotel, Rock 'N' Roll High School Forever and Shake, Rattle and Rock.
