My name is Pete Volk, and I want you to ditch the algorithm with me. Welcome to my newsletter, PV Guide, where I interview interesting people and recommend and review movies, TV, and more that Google, Netflix, or any of the other ever-encroaching algorithms might not push your way. I’m going to dig through the fire hose of media available to you to uncover those hidden gems and enhance your experience watching them, whether that’s a new, under-the-radar title or an older classic worth talking about in a new light.

I want you here because you like me and you like what I’m doing, and I want to build your trust and interest because I know your inbox already gets a bunch of garbage. Let’s fill it up with some good stuff, instead. Ditch the algorithm with me by subscribing to PV Guide.
