The Webby Award-winning podcast THE MAGICAL MAKING OF ALADDIN ON BROADWAY is back with this special episode, paying tribute to the legendary lyricist, Howard Ashman, whose impact on Disney and musical theatre as a whole can still be felt today. Listen to Alan Menken (Composer), Thomas Schumacher (Producer), Danny Troob (Orchestrator), Casey Nicholaw (Director/Choreographer), Jonathan Freeman (original Broadway cast Jafar), and Bill Lauch recount stories of Howard, and share the importance of his work on ALADDIN, all these years later. Hosted by Frank DiLella, this podcast will take you on a journey through the life of the brilliant mind behind the lyrics of THE LITTLE MERMAID, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, ALADDIN, and more. This is more than a tribute—it's a reminder of the power of storytelling, the magic of music, and a legacy that lives on, every night the curtain rises.

Passe deinen Wunsch an das an, was du wirklich willst – und das Universum öffnet dir die Tür .“ – (frei nach Aladdin) In dieser Folge von „Zuckerfrei beginnt im Kopf“ lade ich dich ein, die verborgene Kraft hinter deinem Essverhalten zu entdecken: deine innere Wunderlampe

To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.In this classic episode of Broadway Drumming 101, I chat with the multi-talented percussionist Joshua Mark Samuels, whose Broadway journey spans from singing and dancing as a child in California to holding down chairs in some of the biggest shows on Broadway and Radio City.We initially chatted in October of 2021, but I wanted to share this episode again. It's funny, thought-provoking, and incredibly informative. Episode Highlights:* Early Musical Roots: Josh shares stories of growing up in L.A., starting drum lessons at the age of two and a half, and learning music theory from his legendary uncle, Dave Samuels.* Dual Passions: How Josh navigated his love for both performing on stage and playing in orchestras, eventually fusing both into a career in musical theater.* Cruise Ship Hustle: Becoming a music director at age 21 and realizing pit drumming was his true calling.* Move to NYC: Josh recounts his unexpected relocation to New York and how one subway ride introduced him to Broadway drummer Gary Seligson, kick-starting his networking journey.* Landing Marvelous Wonderettes & Godspell: Hear how obsessive preparation, transcriptions, and laser-focused practice helped Josh build a strong reputation as a sub.* Radio City Christmas Spectacular: What it's really like to play 200+ shows in two months with the Rockettes—and why this gig is one of the most demanding in the business.* Subbing Philosophy: Learn why being effective matters more than being right, how to take notes without ego, and why watching the conductor is non-negotiable.* Building a Career: Josh offers insight into the importance of relationships, people skills, and being someone others want to be around, on and off the bandstand.Key Takeaways:* “Subbing is a people game. It's not just about chops—it's about trust.”* “Obsessive preparation isn't about showing off—it's about honoring the gig.”* “You don't succeed on Broadway because you're the best player. You succeed because you're the best fit.”About Joshua Mark Samuels:Josh currently holds the drums/percussion chair at Maybe Happy Ending on Broadway. His resume includes work on notable productions such as Beetlejuice, Aladdin, Miss Saigon, Jersey Boys, Chaplin, Godspell, A Bronx Tale, and Sunset Boulevard, among others.

*Warning* Bad sound quality - apologies!In this special live edition of the AI/XR Podcast from Augmented World Expo (AWE) 2025, hosts Charlie Fink and Ted Schilowitz are joined by returning guests from Zappar, co-founders Connell Gauld (CTO) and Casper Thykier (CEO) and Auki Labs' CEO Nils Phil, to explore how AI and spatial computing are merging in real-world environments. The conversation spotlights Zapper's Mattercraft platform and its use of “accessible QR codes” to enable spatial navigation and real-time AR experiences without downloading an app. Nils introduces the idea of “collaborative machine perception” as a necessary condition for robots to navigate and work in the physical world—what he calls the “great reversal,” where AI exits the digital and enters the real. Later, XR Guild co-founder Avi Bar-Zeev joins to discuss ethics in XR, the need for community mentorship, and the importance of preserving the creator ecosystem in the age of AI scraping. The conversation closes with personal reflections on past projects like Aladdin's Magic Carpet Ride, Google Earth, and HoloLens.Thank you to our sponsor, Zappar!Don't forget to like, share, and follow for more!

Del dibujo a la realidad: el boom de los remakes en carne y hueso en el streaming. Este verano, las plataformas de streaming vienen cargadas de estrenos… y muchas de esas historias ya las conocemos. Solo que ahora, los personajes animados cobran vida. Un fenómeno que no se detiene Desde hace años, las principales productoras han apostado por convertir sus clásicos animados en películas de acción real. Disney fue pionera con títulos como La Bella y la Bestia, Aladdin o El Rey León, pero no ha sido la única. Ahora, este fenómeno se ha convertido en un pilar de la estrategia de contenidos de las plataformas de streaming.
Composer Alan Menken is the winner of more Academy Awards in competitive categories than any other living person. He's best known for his scores for the animated Disney films including The Little Mermaid, Pocahontas, Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast. His first big hit was the musical Little Shop Of Horrors - one of several he created with lyricist Howard Ashman, his longtime writing partner. Other stage musicals include Sister Act, The Hunchback Of Notre Dame, and Hercules, which recently opened in London's West End. Alan Menken also wrote the scores for Disney films Mirror Mirror, Enchanted and Tangled. As well as eight Academy Awards, he has also won eleven Grammys, seven Golden Globes, two Emmys and a Tony Award.Alan talks to John Wilson about his childhood in New York and the expectations of his parents that he would follow family tradition and become a dentist like his father. A musical talent from a young age, he recalls how seeing Walt Disney's Fantasia was the start of thinking about the marriage of music with story and images. Despite initial ambitions to be a singer-songwriter, enrolling in a workshop in New York for musical theatre composers, lyricists, and librettists led by composer Lehmann Engel taught him how to write for the stage. It is also through Engel that he met lyricist and director Howard Ashman with whom he went on to write many of the hit scores credited as the driving force behind the Disney Renaissance of the 1980s and 1990s. Tragically, Howard Ashman was diagnosed with HIV in 1988 and died at the age of 40 in 1991.Producer: Edwina Pitman
MAKE WAAAAAYYY FOR PRINCE ROBIN!!! Robin at the height of his acting career hits another homerun as the titular Genie in Disney's 1992 animated classic, Aladdin. When the writers and producers were attempting to do some research on middle eastern culture, they decided going to the Saudi Arabian expo at the Los Angeles Convention Center was all that they needed. That all said, Robin's role as the genie is what will cement his voice and "stream-of-consciousness" mind into children and adults all across the world.

In this Showdown episode, Conor and Caroline are out of the tower and over the palace walls to take the two captive Disney Princesses and pit them against each other. Is Jasmine the bold princess who can lead us into a whole new world or is she destined to take the backseat on Aladdin's Magic Carpet? Is Rapunzel's optimism a ray of sunshine or does it make you want to pull out your hair? Inspired by the Dream Big Princess campaign, Conor and Caroline are taking the leap to see how well these pent up princesses measure up to their three defining characteristics and inspire us to leave our ivory towers and see the world!Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, and TikTok for fun content and exciting new updates!Join the Poor Unfortunate Fam, our Facebook Group for listeners who love the podcast and want to keep the discussions going!If you like what you're hearing, help us keep bringing you your favorite Disney content by making a donation to Poor Unfortunate Podcast today!*This podcast is not affiliated with The Walt Disney Company.Support the show

‘Nonkels'-regisseur Jelle Gordyn heeft een gigantische dvdkast. Om die collectie te blijven verantwoorden, bespreekt hij die films met gasten in zijn eigen podcast: DVDKast. Ontbreekt veelal in zijn verzameling: Disneyfilms. Reden? Die liggen allemaal nog op VHS in het ouderlijk huis. Voor mijn podcast geef ik Jelle huiswerk en kijken we vooraf naar de familiefilm ‘Old Yeller': ooit onderwerp van een hele aflevering van ‘Friends' en een comedy bit in de Netflix-special ‘Armageddon' van Ricky Gervais. Daarin heeft de comedian het ook over doesthedogdie.com, een website die zijn bestaansreden dankt aan ‘Old Yeller'. We hebben het over het regisseren van dieren, het trauma van alle Angelsaksische babyboomers en een kindacteur die door Walt Disney zelf op het matje werd geroepen. Maar we wijken ook uit over ontluikende seksualiteit met Jasmine van Aladdin, het hotel van Knabbel en Babbel, en een roterende Dumbo-nachtlamp die een jonge Jelle én nu ook zijn nageslacht in slaap wiegt. En we onderzoeken de humor in ‘Nonkels' en de problematische Disney-films van de jaren 1940.

Head to Youtube. Go there now, you can do that while you listen. Hit that subscribe button. They'll all call you Subscribe-o — Monsteropolis: Turtle Town. A sub neighborhood of Monsteropolis, like Ape Street, Octopus Alley and Thunderbird Boulevard. Let's do these the whole show instead of the show. Bigfoot Borough. Turtle Town is a quaint little (big) neighborhood. And it's gotta be big, because it's full of real big turtles. Not Ninja Turtle big, those guys were big but like size of a bus big, eat your house big, ride across the ocean on their backs if you forged an unbreakable bond with them by saving their home land from a dragon big, stuff like that. TURTLES are REPTILES. They live in the WATER, but they breathe AIR. They have SHELLS. What a WEIRD ANIMAL. If you think about it, turtles are almost like their own cryptid already. Not as weird as the Platypus but still pretty weird. I mean. Shells? Some of them live to be super old too, like 100 years or so. Intrinsic weirdness aside, there are a lot of legends and cryptid encounters associated with turtles. THE WORLD TURTLE - Present in a lot of mythologies. Basically the idea is that the WHOLE WORLD sits on top of the back of a giant turtle. Turtle world. Turtle Planet. The oldest version we know about seems to come from Hindu mythology. The god Vishnu appears in the avatar of a giant turtle named Kurma, which had a mountain on its back. It also popped up, seemingly independently in First Nations lore, such as the Iroquois and Lenape, who portray it as a giant sea turtle. It's cool to think of ancient societies observing the world around them and going, “Oh yeah, all this is on a turtle.” If you think about how they would have observed turtles in the wild, you know, algae and stuff growing on their backs, they kind of look like little models of earth. Historians and scholars also talk about themes that would likely have been in play, such as longevity and continuation, which were important to some of the First Nations tribes and really have been important to human societies for most of history. People would have noticed that turtles lived a long time and also kind of represent security and strength. That's cool. https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/world-turtle-cosmic-discworld THE BEAST OF BUSCO - A big old turtle legend from Indiana. Local to Churubusco, Whitley County, Indiana, also referred to by the nickname Turtle Town, which I did not know when I tentatively named this episode. According to one online source, the nickname originally stems from ‘Little Turtle,' the name of a sagamore (chief) of the Miami tribe, but it's later become associated with the giant turtle sighting at Fulk Lake. First sighting is said to come from 1898 by a guy named Oscar Fulk who spotted it on a large lake on his property. Like, really large, 7 acres apparently. FIFTY YEARS went by. Then in 1948, two men named Ora Blue (that's a name right there) and Charley Wilson were fishing on the same lake, when they reported seeing a similar creature - just a huge, huge turtle, which they described as looking like a snapping turtle with huge spiky shell “the size of a dinner table,” and now all I can think about is Bowser from Mario Bros. Gale Harris, who owned the property at the time of the second sighting, got really into the whole thing, and launched multiple expeditions to try and capture it, including one wherein he drained the 7 acre lake. They tried nets and damming streams and all kinds of stuff. They never found the turtle and it nearly bankrupted him. The local media picked it up a few months after the Blue/Wilson encounter, and it became another Cryptozoological staple. Thrill seekers, monster hunters and now internet weirdos (like us!) became fascinated with the story, and it hangs around in the new millennium. Turtle Brother is supposed to be around 500 pounds. Adult male alligator snapping turtles (the ones we know for sure exist) can hit over 200 pounds, so maybe Busco Boy was just a really really big turtle, but you gotta wonder how he got that big. By the same token, alligator snapping turtles aren't supposed to live in Indiana, so if it were one of those, it would represent its own anomalous encounter on par with Phantom Big Cats and other out-of-place animals. Some natural historians don't think they ever lived there at all, though specimens have been seen as close as the White River in Morgan County, as recently as 1991, but experts posit that this was likely an escaped or released domestic specimen based on its growth pattern. So, shrugging emoji. https://www.iflscience.com/the-beast-of-busco-the-mystery-of-indianas-500-pound-turtle-sightings-75278 https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/could-citizens-of-this-indiana-town-have-seen-a-500-pound-turtle-180984659/ The Ogua - Another big old turtle guy but this one has two heads (sometimes)! Two head turtle, Turtle Two Head, Turtle Tim and The Two Headed Ogua, I don't know, this would make a great kids movie though. A lot of cryptid stories would make good kids' movies. Anyway though, this guy shows up in Virginia and Pennsylvania and Ohioooooo, right near you guys. Aleghenny and Monongahela rivers apparently. Did you, did you check for turtles? Turtle check? When you went outside today? Watch out for this guy because he's- Twenty feet long! That's longer than cars. 500 pounds. Does this seem too long? Like shouldn't something that long weigh more? Unless he's like a really slim cigar shaped turtle? I dunno, I'm not good at math, maybe somebody can figure out what a twenty foot long thing that's also 500 pounds would look like and draw it. Story goes that in 1745 (before the Revolution) a giant two headed turtle jumped out of the river and ate a 12 year old boy who was fishing. Which is kind of how alligators and predatory turtles hunt you know, like hiding right under the surface. Bummer. There are supposed to be sightings “all over Marion county” according to online sources but specifics are spotty. Did you guys SEE the Ogua when you were children? Were you WARNED not to get EATEN by two headed turtles? So could any of these guys actually exist? Maybe not the world turtle one unless we're just gonna decide that that's real. I like it so I'm good with it. The biggest turtle ever known to exist was the Archelon Ischyros, a sea turtle that grew up to 15 feet long and was believed to weigh up to three tons. See that's what I was saying earlier - something 20 feet long would need to weigh more than 500 pounds. BUT an especially large Alligator Snapping turtle could, maybe, possibly, be MISTAKEN for weighing 500 pounds, or maybe actually weigh close to that much. There are people who are way taller than the average person so it probably happens with turtles. It could be a whole thing where there just were some really big turtles hanging out in these areas and witnesses mistook them for being 20 feet long. What they're doing in Indiana and Ohio though is another mystery. Ultimately it's not a question of whether turtles this size/near this size existed - it's a question of whether or not one matching the anatomy of a snapping turtle could get this large, and if it could/did ever exist in some of these northern parts of the country, AND if they could still be hanging around in the modern day. We're essentially talking about dinosaurs here - should the “turtle cryptids” be thought of the same way we think about Plesiosaurs and other “surviving dinosaur” stories? Is this just too many questions? We're also talking about behaviors really closely associated with gators/crocs (the ambush hunting) so maybe there were some stories about alligators that got mixed up and turned into stories about turtles, but that seems like a stupid guess now that I'm typing it out. And also alligators aren't supposed to be in Ohio or Indiana either. SOME POP CULTURE REFERENCES - Plenty of giant turtles in Pop Culture. There's that Gamera guy, and the smaller Toho kaiju Kameobas from the cult film Yog: Monster from Space (Kameobas also shows up in Godzilla: Tokyo SOS, 2004). There's the giant turtle from Aladdin and King of Thieves, always liked that guy. The Pokemon Torterra is pretty clearly a take on the World Turtle idea (got trees and mountains on his back and in the Detective Pikachu movie he's the size of a mountain). There's this video game called Fortnite you may have heard of. Giant turtle in there as a part of the Oni/Ninja theme they did for season whatever it was - is that guy still around? I haven't played in awhile. He was cool though you could hide in the trees on his back and find really crappy shotguns and then get killed by a much better player who already figured out that's a bad strategy. — Thanks for listening everybody! Come to the Ape Canyon screening, listen to The Lore You Know, and maybe by the next episode we'll figure out how to get Aaron out of here. You can (should!) subscribe to Small Town Monsters on Youtube, and if you liked this show, give it a rating or review! If you didn't like it don't. Enough people did that already. You're good.

Hello, Catholic Pilgrims. Welcome back. Yesterday, we got kind of the pep talk before the big trip. Today, same date, we get more of the play-by-play of the trip. In the song “A Whole New World” from the movie Aladdin, there's a line that says, “With new horizons to pursue (every moment red letter). I always thought they were singing, “With new horizons to pursue, every moment gets better.” When my girls were singing about the moment being red letter, I was confused. What the heck does that mean? Well, a red-letter day is a very pleasantly memorable day and that is what Mother Cabrini is going to describe for us.

Why do the villains always get the best songs? In this devilishly fun episode of The Music in Me, we're cranking up the drama and diving headfirst into the world of Disney villain anthems. These songs aren't just catchy — they're iconic, theatrical, and dripping with delicious wickedness. From the seductive power plays of Ursula in Poor Unfortunate Souls, to Scar's fascist flair in Be Prepared, to the fiery torment of Frollo in Hellfire, Disney villains don't just monologue — they perform. We'll break down the lyrics, the drama, the hidden genius, and why these tunes secretly (or not-so-secretly) steal the spotlight every time. If you've ever found yourself singing along with the bad guy and loving every second of it… this one's for you.SONGS MENTIONED...Poor Unfortunate Souls from The Little MermaidBe Prepared from The Lion KingFriends on the Other Side from The Princess and the FrogMother Knows Best from TangledGaston from Beauty and the BeastPrince Ali (Reprise) from AladdinHellfire from The Hunchback of Notre DameCruella DeVille from 101 DalmationsThe Elegant Captain Hook from Peter PanTrust in Me from The Jungle BookMad Madam Mim from The Sword in the StoneAre You In or Out? from Aladdin and the King of ThievesSnuff Out the Light deleted song from The Emperor's New GrooveThis is the Thanks I Get from WishExploring Broadway's Villain Songs (Episode 37)What did you think of this episode?
