The Academy of TechnoRetro Dads rolls out the red carpet for the 2nd Annual MARTY Awards, celebrating the movies that audiences actually watched in 2025. Join Jay and Shua as they honor the strangest categories, the quirkiest films, and even hand out the first ever BIFF award for the best idiotic feature film. It's glitz, laughs, and plenty of movie nonsense as Enjoy Stuff gives Hollywood the awards show it deserves.   News Frank Frazetta's famous "Captive Princess" oil painting from 1973 is heading to auction, and collectors are preparing their treasure chests.   Universal may be planning an overhaul of the classic E.T. ride, sparking curiosity and nostalgia among theme park fans.   The cast of Firefly has been teasing something mysterious online, giving fans hope that the beloved sci-fi series may not be done just yet.   Science icon Bill Nye received a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Children's & Family Emmy Awards.   Check out our TeePublic store for some enjoyable swag and all the latest fashion trends What we're Enjoying Shua finally watched The Shawshank Redemption with Jay and discovered why it's considered one of the greatest movies ever made. The story of Andy Dufresne's resilience and friendship inside prison left a big impression, thanks to fantastic performances from Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman. Shua also gives an honorable mention to Pixar's Hoppers, praising its thoughtful story about nature and humanity's impact on it. Jay has been enjoying Ted Season 2, where Seth MacFarlane doubles down on his outrageous humor while still giving the series a surprising amount of heart. Beneath the crude jokes and talking teddy bear antics, the show manages to explore friendships and growing up in its own weird way.     Sci-Fi Saturdays -  This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay takes a look back at Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017). The film mixes humor, tragedy, and bold storytelling choices as the Resistance reaches one of its lowest points. By ending with the stable boy looking to the stars, the story reminds viewers that hope, and the Force, can come from anywhere. Read his article on RetroZap.com. And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.   Enjoy The Martys!  TThis week Jay and Shua suit up for their fanciest tuxes (or at least their cleanest podcast T-shirts) as they host the 2nd Annual MARTY Awards. These alternative awards celebrate the movies of 2025 that didn't necessarily get recognition from the big Hollywood ceremonies, but still entertained audiences everywhere.   Along the way, they hand out awards for everything from the best A24 film to the creepiest movie children, the best beard in a movie, and even the best Pedro Pascal performance. The night concludes with the debut of a brand-new award: the BIFF (Best Idiotic Feature Film), proving once again that the Enjoy Stuff awards are far less serious, and far more fun, than anything happening in Hollywood.   What movies do you think deserve an award? Help us come up with a new category. Let us know! First person that emails me with the subject line, "And the Marty goes to…" will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know.

In this special episode of the Explaining History Podcast, recorded just days before the 2026 Academy Awards, we're joined by film and media historian Monica Sandler of Ball State University to explore what the Oscars tell us about American culture, power, and the film industry itself.Monica brings her deep expertise to bear on these questions, tracing the Oscars back to their founding in 1929 as a deliberate attempt to reframe film as an art form—a response to the 1915 Mutual Decision that denied movies First Amendment protections and labeled the industry "plain and simple" commerce. From Will Hays's 1930 speech describing the awards as "an educator of public taste" to the New York Film Critics Circle's 1936 declaration that the Academy was "completely out of touch," the tension between industry insiders and cultural arbiters has been there from the start.We dive into the economics of awards campaigning—how smaller films depend on Oscar success for profitability, while blockbusters don't need the validation—and the transformation of that process by Harvey Weinstein, who turned awards campaigning into a brutal, multi-million-dollar blood sport. The rules the Academy has had to create in response tell their own story.The conversation also grapples with the Oscars' troubled relationship with race and representation. Monica discusses the 2016 #OscarsSoWhite movement, which forced the Academy to overhaul its membership—then 90% white, 75% male, with an average age of 65—and the complicated legacy of that change. We talk about the first person of colour ever nominated, Merle Oberon in 1936, who passed as British and whose racial identity was unknown to the public, a poignant illustration of the barriers that existed.And we look forward: to the rise of streaming, the consolidation of media conglomerates, the threat of AI, and the question of whether the Oscars will remain relevant in a world where young people watch YouTube, not Hollywood. Monica argues that while broadcast ratings may decline, the social media visibility of awards moments—like Michael B. Jordan's recent SAG Awards win—shows that cultural impact is simply being measured differently.**Topics covered:**- The 1915 Mutual Decision and Hollywood's quest for artistic legitimacy- Will Hays and the "education of public taste"- The economics of awards campaigning- Harvey Weinstein's transformation of the Oscar industrial complex- #OscarsSoWhite and the Academy's membership overhaul- Merle Oberon and the history of passing in Hollywood- #MeToo and Harvey Weinstein's legacy- The future of film in the age of streaming and AI- Media consolidation and the concentration of power*Monica Sandler is a film and media historian at Ball State University, currently completing her book manuscript, *The Oscar Industry*, based on her doctoral research at UCLA with unprecedented access to the Academy's internal archives.

David, 80, has been teaching ministry for over 60 years. He has decades of experience as a minister, teacher, author, spiritual guide and sound healer - and has journeyed from a fundamentalist Christian upbringing to an inclusive spiritual vista that primarily champions love over fear. David is the founder and spiritual leader of the ‘Academy for Spiritual Awakening' - a vibrant sanctuary blending things like Christian texts, Gnostic insights, Kabbalah, A Course in Miracles, and modern science to inspire transformation. David works extensively with ancient Solfeggio frequencies and tuning forks, his teachings and insights are weaved with various knowledge from qigong, meditation, 5D, building community, cellular shifts, unconditional love, star-seeds, and many more.In this episode we talk ancient frequencies, 'Babes, Adolescents, and Co-Creative Adults', the overlooked gaps in sacred stories, inner knowing vs. structured faith, DNA revelations from quiet reflection, heart-centered sound work, stages of inner maturation, physical manifestations of soul growth, disorders leading to renewal, experiencing divine encounters, universal memory, sound's role in vitality, ecstatic energy release, community sanctuaries, creating lasting impact, shaping our destinies through community and much, much more.Notable quotes from David in this episode:“The path you're really on should be the path to no path. We don't need to get something we don't have. We need to remember what we've forgotten.”"Over the past six decades, I've moved beyond the traditional fundamentalist religious framework to embrace a broader, more inclusive understanding of spirituality."“Don't believe everything I say just because I say it. Take what resonates with your own innate intelligence. That's where your own ‘I AM' code comes in.”“Transformation begins with chaos and disorder. The caterpillar doesn't go through all that to become an enlightened caterpillar -it becomes a butterfly.”"He said, I'm the way. And I think they cut out the way. You know, there's at 18 years missing in the Bible that nobody wants to talk about in Christian. Them. Like, okay, that wasn't important. He didn't say anything for 18 years that maybe you need to know."“I want to work with what's breaking through, not try to fix what's breaking down.”"I'm sure that old caterpillar goes, what in the world is going on here? You know, I've been nibbling on this leaf, and now there's I've eaten all my resources. I have nowhere to go but what's happening inside of me?
