Dan Katz is a Massachusetts native who joined Barstool Sports in the company’s early days, as one of their first content creators in what might have been a “right place, right time” situation. He has built up a social media following of more than 1 million people, with the bulk of that success coming as a result of the Pardon My Take podcast, which he launched through Barstool in 2016 and co-hosts with the also popular personality PFT Commenter. The popularity of PMT, as it’s known among its fans, has helped vault Katz into more mainstream media. He hosted ESPN’s late-night show Barstool Van Talk, but it was canceled after airing a single episode because of pushback against the network because of controversies surrounding Barstool. Other shows on which Katz is a regular contributor include PFT Live, The Dan Patrick Show, and Men in Blazers. It has also led to Katz co-hosting another podcast, The Corp, with one of the biggest names in sports in the 21st century, Alex Rodriguez, which Barstool launched in 2019.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
