Superstar composers John Murphy and David Fleming finally enter the same room (you read that correctly) after an unusual but groundbreaking experience co-composing the score for James Gunn's SUPERMAN. How John's electric guitar-focused approach (he writes themes on a zany guitar he named Ned Flanders) harnessed the majesty of John Williams' iconic theme — and why the trailer debut was nerve racking to see if the world would accept his “version” of it. Also, how his precious guitar themes (28 Days Later, Sunshine) helped prep for how to treat this film with the sound needed. David and John discuss their breakthroughs in film composing — an internship leading to working with Hans Zimmer on The Lion King. Blue Planet II and Top Gun: Maverick — and a book titled “How To Write A Film Score” which was promptly discarded for a few pints. The duo also discuss their unique place in the massive re-launch of the DC Universe's first film — tonally a new direction that called for embracing the campiness a little more, but also the authenticity. How John's music was critical to filming, and later how David navigated a final push to expand the film's musical scope thematically. Also, Squirrelgate.

“I wouldn't say the league humbled me, I would say I didn't dream big enough. I was like every other kid, I wanted to make it to the NFL. But what was humbled, was my aspiration and I realize it wasn't big enough…I want more than just making it.” Jameis Winston From his early NFL highs to on-field struggles, Jameis reflects on how he's matured as a leader, the importance of humility, and the deep-rooted faith that keeps him focused. He shares what he's learned from the likes of Tom Brady, Michael Vick and explains why he's still betting on himself — even in a limited role. In one of the most honest and introspective interviews of camp, Jameis shows why his pivot isn't about giving up—it's about growth, resilience, and redefining success on his own terms. You can't be around the firery quarterback and not be inspired. The gun slinger is entering his 11th NFL season as the the former number one overall pick is content with his new home in New York, but still not satisfied.  Jameis still thinks about the plays he left on the field in Tampa, and the bitter sweet feeling of watching the GOAT, Tom Brady, lead his team to a Super Bowl… but in this league, it's about wins and losses, as Jameis reflects back that he didn't have enough W's. There's a maturity in his tone now as he breaks down to Ryan, Channing and Fred how he's become a man who understands reaction vs response and finally fears the consequences of his decisions, on and off the field, especially the passes he wishes he could have back. He's a locker room favorite who leads with his faith and his word. There are no secrets with him as transparency at its fullest, he even goes in-depth sharing what happened during his college days with the infamous crab leg story, describes a trip to Africa like a scene from Lion King and details the off-field struggles that transcended into his on-field miscues. Jameis works everyday to be the best teammate he can to the consummate professional Russell Wilson, and the young buck Jackson Dart… and he's like all of us, anticipating Malik Nabers joining the greats at the Wide Receiveer position. He's loving his role in this locker room and feels it's a much stronger vibe than the one he had when he first arrived back in New Orleans with Marshawn Lattimore, which of course he tells us all about too. Oh and we couldn't let Jameis go without giving us a Pivot speech to keep us motivated as we kick off our NFL Training Camp tour...Be sure to follow along the next month as we travel from city to city bringing you unprecedented conversations around the league.

In our first story, Mark Schoenfeld dives into a captivating story of a college sophomore’s unexpected adventure abroad, from a covert mission to buy bootleg DVDs to an even more clandestine identity as an undercover evangelical Christian missionary. What happens when a spontaneous prank involving a Matt Damon look-alike turns serious, forcing a confrontation with an organization that calls itself “the company” and challenges the very meaning of faith? Mark calls his story “What Would Jed Do?” photo by kmr studios Mark Schoenfeld has been a lot of things: a window washer, a screen printer, a public radio host, a middle school teacher, and an adjunct professor to name a few. One thing he’s always been is a writer—of stories, songs, and poems—which led him to earn his MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Montana. A disgruntled Texan, Mark and his family now call western Montana home. His work has appeared in print, online, and on-air, which you can find at markscho.com In our next story, join Tess Sneeringer, a high school junior on Halloween night 2009, as she navigates an exclusive party, a ninja-clad twin brother, and a sudden police raid that turns into a chaotic scramble for escape. What happens when a misplaced car and a nosy Officer Becky make this unpopular attendee the unlikely culprit for the entire bust? Tess calls her story “A Chance to be Popular”. Thanks for listening. photo by kmr studios Tess Sneeringer has lived in Missoula for six years and landed here after spending the first half of her twenties as an outdoor educator across the American West, far away from her childhood home in Washington, DC. Telling a story for Tell Us Something became a Missoula bucket list item after she saw her first show in 2019. So she told a story in 2021. But then she stayed in Missoula longer than she thought she would so figured she'd do it again. Her first appearance featured a survival story set in the Utah desert, and she's back on this episode of the podcast with another survival tale – this time of high school social life. In our next story, Kelley Provost shares her raw and honest journey of self-acceptance and defiance, beginning with a lifelong struggle against body image that culminates in a breast reduction. But just as newfound confidence blossoms on a dream European vacation, a phone call in London’s West End, moments before The Lion King, delivers a life-altering diagnosis that changes everything. Kelley calls her story “Careful Whatchya Wish For”. Thanks for listening. photo by kmr studios Kelley Provost Kelley Provost  is a survivor, a thriver, a liver, and a lover. She loves Duran Duran, fashion, laughing, and dancing. Watching people be proud of themselves is her favorite thing ever. Her goal is to create a community of people who love themselves so much that they inspire others to do the same. A life coach, a life lover, a life LIVER. Closing out this episode of the Tell Us Something podcast, Jeff Ducklow embarks on an “adventure wish”. A seminary graduate turned sea kayak guide, Jeff recounts the incredibly dangerous decision to paddle toward and touch a Tidewater glacier in Alaska. What began as a bold pursuit of a memorable death could quickly become a fight for survival against one of nature’s most unpredictable forces. Jeff calls his story “A Terrible Idea”. Thanks for listening. photo by kmr studios Jeff Ducklow has always loved nature. As a youngster, he spent most of his free time playing in the woods and felt more at home there than he did anywhere indoors. He considered nature his friend even into adulthood when he decided to turn his passion for nature into a career as an adventure guide. Yes, Jeff felt he and nature were buddies. A belief he wholeheartedly embraced until the events in his story that you just heard shook his faith and gave him more insight into the nature of nature.

President Trump is spending five days in Scotland visiting his luxury golf resorts. While the White House touts the economic impact, some locals say the developments have scarred the land and stirred controversy. Candace Dellacona, host of "The Sandwich Generation Survival Guide," joins Tony Dokoupil to discuss what it's like caring for kids and aging parents at the same time and how to manage the pressure. Gayle King joins "The Lion King" cast as a bird lady in the show's opening number alongside Adam Glassman.

On this special Digital Hollywood episode of The AI/XR Podcast, hosts Charlie Fink, Rony Abovitz, and Ted Schilowitz are joined by director Rob Minkoff (The Lion King), filmmaker and AI specialist Ellenor Argyropoulos, and writer-director John MacInnes for a candid discussion on the upheaval AI is bringing to Hollywood. The panelists agree that while generative tools are accelerating creativity and lowering the barrier to entry, they also threaten traditional production roles and economic structures. Minkoff stresses the enduring importance of storytelling and direction, while MacInnes predicts a future with fewer below-the-line jobs and a boom in creator-driven content. Argyropoulos shares how AI has actually made her work more profitable. The conversation also touches on IP theft, synthetic actors, and the risk of massive tech consolidation. As Minkoff puts it, “AI is a tool—but the vision is still human.”Thank you to our sponsor, Zappar!Don't forget to like, share, and follow for more!

Edwin Jonker is acteur. Hij studeerde twee jaar Geschiedenis aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam, maar maakte daarna de stap naar het acteren. Hij was in het theater onder andere te zien als Tom Collins in ‘Rent', waarvoor hij in 2001 een John Kraaijkamp Musical Award voor beste mannelijke bijrol ontving. Ook speelde hij in voorstellingen als ‘Sister Act' en ‘The Lion King' en vorig jaar won hij een Musical Award voor beste mannelijke bijrol, voor zijn rol als Pilatus in ‘Jesus Christ Superstar'. Jonker, die ook in series en films als ‘Goede tijden, slechte tijden', ‘Verliefd op Bali' en ‘Dochters' te zien was, vertolkt nu de rol van Hades in theatervoorstelling ‘HADESTOWN'. Deze wereldwijde musicalsensatie, die werd bekroond met acht Tony Awards en een Grammy Award, komt deze zomer voor het eerst naar Nederland. Twee oude liefdesverhalen komen samen in een nieuw, modern jasje: dat van de jonge dromers Orpheus en Eurydice, en dat van Koning Hades en zijn vrouw Persephone.  Lotje IJzermans gaat met Edwin Jonker in gesprek.

A big part of Disney's big run in the 90's, this week we look at "The Lion King". An iconic Disney animated movie that has lived on through a number of sequels, a 3D re-release,  a live action remake and massively successful stage musical.

In this episode of Disney Moms Gone Wrong, your favorite trio—Diana, Sarah, and Susie—take a brutally honest look at the new live-action prequel Mufasa. Is it a worthy addition to the Lion King legacy, or just another nostalgia grab? From snow-covered lions that give off White Walker vibes to Diet Coke-fueled late-night rants, the moms unpack it all. Expect deep dives into Disney's live-action fatigue, Rafiki's surprising backstory, and even a debate over who should tell their life stories. Spoiler: it might be Snoop Dogg.Timestamps & Topics:00:00 Intro & Late-Night Chaos02:00 Mufasa Movie Breakdown Begins03:15 Live-Action Overload: Yay or Nay?04:00 Susie's “Mom Style” Movie Watching06:30 Rafiki and Mufasa's Emotional Bond09:30 The Scar Backstory Debate10:45 The Missed Opportunity of a Rafiki Solo Movie12:30 Legacy, Loyalty, and Bad CGI15:00 What Animal Would Be Your Sidekick in the Pride Lands?20:00 What Do You Want Your Legacy to Be?26:00 Who Should Tell Your Story When You're Gone?31:00 Hall of Fame Verdict36:00 Final Thoughts & ChaosKey Takeaways:The film feels like a remix of The Lion King and Lion King 1½, with very few new ideas.Rafiki's backstory was the emotional highlight and one of the few fresh elements.Most of the cast found the movie lacking in creativity and cultural impact.One standout song, "I Always Wanted a Brother," earned a bit of praise, but it wasn't enough to carry the soundtrack.The moms dive into legacy talk, adding humor and heart to the discussion about what we leave behind.Memorable Quotes:“Did ChatGPT write this movie?”“Rafiki is that crazy uncle you trust even though he talks in riddles.”“I shouted, ‘Not again!' when that elephant came down the river.”“Mufasa would get expelled for plagiarism.”“I want Taco Bell to be part of my legacy.”Call to Action:Love hearing real moms roast Disney's biggest hits and misses?

Somewhere around the mid-1970s, Hollywood studios realized that the summer months were the perfect launching point for their most-expensive, highest-profile projects. With kids out of school, families needed something to do. The prestigious Oscar-bait timeframe was half a year away. And people welcomed an opportunity to get out of the sun and into a dark, air-conditioned room to watch grown men get eaten by dinosaurs whilst using the toilet, and countless cars exploding for no discernible reason. Billions of dollars have been made by summer blockbusters, and even a few awards have ben won by them. So for the first of our 2025 Summer Specials, we want to look back at those mega-grossing pictures and try to determine the best Summer Blockbuster Film of all time. Movies discussed: Jurassic Park, Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Ghostbusters, Grease, Shrek, Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, The Dark Knight, The Lion King, Twister, Barbie, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Jaws, Independence Day, Iron Man, Back to the Future. Join host Eric Rezsnyak and GPCD panelists Karissa Kloss, Kate Racculia, and Michael Schwarz as they discuss 16 of the most-loved, most-successful movies of all time. Play along at home by finding the listener bracket here. Make a copy for yourself, fill it out, and see if your picks match up with ours!

ACOFAE Podcast Presents: A Far Better Thing: “2025 - it was the worst of times, it was the worst of times” When was the last time you picked up a one of the "classic" books for fun? Has it been a while? Was it required reading that you were tested on at the end? Keep those answers in mind as you join Laura Marie and Jessica Marie in discussing A Far Better Thing by H.G. Parry. A reimagining of A Tale of Two Cities, this story sees the reader encountering now only the classic characters like Sydney and Lucie but also fairies, goblins, and kings. Meeting your Changeling is something that is not done, but when Sydney meets not only his Changeling but his childhood loves as well, plots are revealed and past crimes must be paid for with blood. ACOFAE also touches on accessibility, required reading, retellings, and movies that borrow from the classics. "I don't know this man."

What if you've forgotten who you really are?In The Lion King, Simba wanders through life, haunted by guilt and running from his true identity. But when he looks beyond himself, he hears a deeper voice: “Remember who you are.”In Colossians 3:1–10, Paul gives us that same call—to set our minds on things above and put to death the old self. You've been raised with Christ. You're not who you were. You're called to live like who you truly are in Him.This week, we unpack the truth that when we see Jesus clearly, we see ourselves rightly. Don't miss this powerful message in our Blockbusters series, where the Gospel meets the greatest classics of the 90s.From all of us at Eastern Hills Bible Church, we're delighted that you're here and we want you to know that you're among friends.

  This episode is brought to you by Fatty15, LMNT and Audible. In this gripping and mind-opening conversation, Yale psychiatrist and author Dr. James Kimmel Jr. joins us to explore one of humanity's most primal urges—revenge. Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and personal experience, Dr. Kimmel explains how revenge mimics addiction in the brain and why many of us unknowingly suffer from “revenge cravings.” He shares a deeply personal story of nearly acting on revenge as a teenager, the lessons he learned as a litigator-turned-researcher, and practical, science-backed ways to break the cycle. From mass shootings and bullying to road rage and “revenge bodies,” this episode dives deep into the psychology of retaliation, the illusion of justice, and how forgiveness may be the ultimate act of self-healing. ----- In this episode we discuss... 03:25 – What is revenge?

Today Ben dives into the Viking World of Berk to discuss the Live Action How to Train Your Dragon! Live-action remakes don't exactly have the best track record—some hit, most miss, and many leave us wondering… why even bother? But somehow, How to Train Your Dragon pulls off the near-impossible: staying almost exactly the same as the original and being completely worth it. In today's video, we're breaking down why this remake works where others—like The Lion King, Aladdin, and Beauty and the Beast—struggled. From honoring the animation, to understanding live-action as its own format, to the return of Gerard Butler in bear cape glory... this movie might've just set a new standard.

It's Part 1 with the one and only Crystal Kung Minkoff for a glitzy, gloriously unfiltered episode! Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum, Humble Brag podcast queen, and wife of The Lion King director Rob Minkoff, Crystal joins Pol' & Patrik to spill tea—unsweetened, over-iced, and stirred with Armenian coffee. With Snow White 90210 at the groomer (priorities, people), the boys dive into Crystal's Housewives origin story: a casual Mommy & Me moment with Teddi Mellencamp turned into a Zoom with 20 Bravo execs. In designer athleisure, she was crowned a new Housewife. Her reaction? “Uh…okay?” Even the Bravo head honcho was gagged. Crystal didn't chase fame—she married into it. With over 20 years alongside Rob, she had a lot to lose. Between raising kids and protecting her husband's Disney reputation, she wasn't about to get shredded by Lisa Rinna for sport. Even Rob's agent (who reps Brandi Glanville and Denise Richards) told her: “Don't do it!” But Bravo got her. Zoom filming turned into sipping with Kyle Richards, dodging Erika Jayne-level drama, and saying “hell no” to shady producer setups. As for the cast? Crystal's real ones were Garcelle Beauvais and Sutton Stracke—until the group chat imploded. (Looking at you, Random

“Your story comes from your heart, and then you structure it to deliver it in the best way.” — Rain BennettEver hear the term "story beat" and wonder what it really means? In this episode, Rain breaks down the mysterious middle ground between scenes and acts—the story beat.
