Welcome back to the Working Perspectives Podcast! In this episode, we are diving deep into the ultimate television fatherhood debate with our official TV Dad Tier List. To make sure we have all our bases covered, we're bringing four totally different dad perspectives to the table: Matt brings the point of view of a married dad. Bern brings the point of view of a divorced dad. Liam brings the point of view of a single dad. Tom brings the point of view of a married dad with two sons. Watch as we battle it out, grading and debating the parenting styles, hilarious flaws, and iconic moments of four legendary sitcom fathers: Homer Simpson (The Simpsons), Al Bundy (Married... with Children), Dan Conner (Roseanne), and Frank Reynolds (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia). Who gets the legendary S-Tier status and who gets dropped to the bottom? It's a healthy dose of 90s TV nostalgia mixed with absolute chaos. Grab a cold one, settle in, and let us know your rankings in the comments below! Don't forget to LIKE, COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE for more weekly debates and dad perspectives!

GIMME THAT STARFOX MOVIE! - Super Mario Galaxy Full Movie Watch Along:   / thereelrejects   The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Animated Movie Reaction & Breakdown with Greg Alba, Andrew Gordon, Jon Maturan, and John Humphrey! With the absolute massive box office success of The Super Mario Bros. Movie setting up a fast-paced multiverse, Nintendo, Universal Pictures, and Illumination Studios Paris have returned to the cosmos for the biggest event of the Super Mario Bros. 40th Anniversary celebration: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ In this full Super Mario Galaxy movie reaction, the Reel Rejects crew dives deep into the incredible, fast-paced world building and jaw-dropping computer graphics of Illumination's latest video game adaptation masterpiece. We break down the massive ensemble cast, including Chris Pratt (Guardians of the Galaxy, The Lego Movie) returning as Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy (The Queen's Gambit, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga) as Princess Peach, and Charlie Day (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Pacific Rim) reprising his role as Luigi. We also check out the massive new cast additions, including Brie Larson (Captain Marvel, Room) as outer-space princess Rosalina, Donald Glover (Atlanta, Solo: A Star Wars Story) bringing the iconic Yoshi to life, and Benny Safdie (Oppenheimer, Uncut Gems) as the unhinged, approval-seeking Bowser Jr. Our hosts break down all the chaotic, sensory-overload action sequences, the mind-blowing transitions from 2D tribute animation back into full 3D models, and the amazing orchestral score by composer Brian Tyler. From the introduction of the Boomsday weapon and Bowser Jr.'s paintbrush mechanics to the unforgettable Star Fox crossover sequence featuring Glen Powell (Top Gun: Maverick, Anyone But You) as Fox McCloud flying the Arwing, this movie gave our hosts plenty to unpack. We also discuss the unexpected father-son dynamics between Jack Black's (School of Rock, Kung Fu Panda) King Bowser and Bowser Jr., the pixel pinñata party, the Honeyhive Galaxy run featuring Issa Rae (Barbie) as the Honey Queen, Luis Guzmán (Wednesday) as Wart at the GameCube roulette casino table, and that incredible Terminator 2 homage ending with Lava Bowser becoming the Skull King. As we dissect the mixed critic reviews versus the massive audience score, we're asking: is The Super Mario Galaxy Movie better than the first film? Does the bare minimum of storytelling work when a movie completely understands its experiential assignment? And are we officially getting a full-blown Super Smash Bros. cinematic universe?

The very funny Nick Kocher and Brian McElhaney had never seen David Cronenberg's The Dead Zone, so naturally we had to make them watch it and report back. You know Nick & Brian collectively as BriTANiK from their sketch work at SNL, their writing on It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and the two movies they have coming out this April: Pizza Movie, which they wrote and directed and is out now on Hulu, and Over Your Dead Body, hitting theaters this very weekend. So, what did they think of Cronenberg's film? Well, you'll have to listen and find out, but I will say that had just as many questions for Vespe and Breznican as the hosts had for them.

In this episode, Sandra Leviton pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build a career in television and film. From her early days working in reality TV to her time at FX during the rise of hit shows like Sons of Anarchy and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, she shares a firsthand look at how the industry has evolved—and why breaking in today is more competitive than ever. She explains the difference between film and television pathways, revealing why TV still relies heavily on a traditional “gatekeeper” system, and why many aspiring creators misunderstand how projects actually get made.The conversation dives deep into practical strategy for filmmakers and writers, especially those trying to create their own opportunities. Sandra emphasizes the importance of writing, building relationships, and understanding the business side of storytelling. She also breaks down why shooting an expensive TV pilot may not be the smartest move, and how focusing on a strong portfolio and audience-building can lead to better long-term results. For anyone serious about a career in filmmaking or screenwriting, this episode offers a clear, honest roadmap grounded in real industry experience.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.

Taboos are generally things that are considered "forbidden" by society for various reasons, but what we start with are personal taboos rather than at the society level, but we do talk about that too. Taboos for me in humour are animal cruelty, sexual violence, racism, sexism and ableism, all to varying degrees but animal cruelty is the main one. I really hate it when a joke involves killing or harming an animal. When it comes to personal taboos I don't tend to become a "Karren" about it, when I personally have an issue with a type of humour I'll generally turn away from it rather than assume everyone thinks like me and go on a tirade. Society level taboos are different, sometimes it's culturally based, like taboos about comedy based on religion, national heroes, nationalism, etc, it could be political, it can be touchy subjects like racism, sexual violence, cannibalism, sexism etc, or even silly things like toilet humour and bodily functions! There can be good reasons for both avoiding taboos completely and also tackling them head on directly. One of my favourite TV sitcoms is It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia which makes a point of constantly taking taboos head on. A general rule about taboos and touchy subjects in humour is to "punch up" rather than "punch down", which means it's not cool to go after the vulnerable, instead go after the empowered and entitled. But that doesn't mean you should infantilise the groups you deem worthy of protecting and treat them like that have no agency or humour, that can be just exactly as bad as attacking them directly because in both instances you are dehumanising them. A great instance of tackling a taboo in humour is Robert Downey Jnr's blackface in Tropic Thunder. Blackface is a taboo because it was about creating a dehumanising caricature of black people in order to denigrate them. The blackface in Tropic thunder isn't used that way at all, it's making fun of the character who is doing the blackface, his entitlement, overweening arrogance and gall to think he should be able to get away with it, as well as the ridiculousness of the situation. Do you have personal taboos that you don't joke about? Or do you think it's a good idea to make jokes about certain taboos in humour? -Waning- I recount a horrible, awful sexist joke near the end of the cast as an example and Tantz Aerine demolishes it with humour showing a good way to deal with such a thing.

Nick Vera Never Sleeps: Jeremy Ratchford on Halloween, Cold Case, X-Men & the Craft Behind the Characters Jeremy Ratchford is exactly the kind of guest that makes Reza Rifts special. He's not here to promote a blockbuster or recite polished talking points  he's a working actor with four decades of real stories, hard-won wisdom, and the kind of genuine passion for craft that reminds you why the entertainment business still matters. Whether you grew up watching him as Nick Vera solving cold cases in Philadelphia, screaming as Banshee in Generation X, or trying to stop the geese in Fly Away Home, this conversation will make you appreciate the enormous amount of human effort  and humanity  that goes into the characters we love. He shares vivid behind-the-scenes memories from Fly Away Home (1996)  the beloved family film featuring Anna Paquin and Jeff Daniels  and opens up about what it truly takes to build the kind of authentic chemistry with scene partners that makes detective partnerships feel genuinely real on screen. Rounding out the conversation, Jeremy reflects on the quirky characters that have defined his career, the lessons Hollywood has taught him about preparation and collaboration, and the personal wisdom he's earned across four decades in the business.  Funny, insightful, and packed with genuine Hollywood stories, this is Reza Rifts at its very best. Guest Bio Jeremy Ratchford is a veteran Canadian-American actor whose career spans more than four decades of film, television, and voice work.  His most iconic role came as Detective Nick Vera on CBS's Cold Case (2003–2010), where he appeared in all 156 episodes of the series' seven-season run alongside Kathryn Morris. Before Cold Case, Jeremy built a remarkable body of work that includes playing the Marvel Comics mutant Banshee (Sean Cassidy) in the live-action Generation X TV movie (1996) and providing additional voices for the beloved X-Men animated series (1992–1997). His film credits span from the critically acclaimed family adventure Fly Away Home (1996) to Clint Eastwood's Oscar-winning Unforgiven (1992). He has also appeared in Buffy the Vampire Slayer (as the vampire Lyle Gorch), NYPD Blue, The Practice, Blue Murder, CSI, Bones, NCIS, Chicago P.D., and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, among many others.

You know them as BriTANick https://www.britanick.com/ and their latest feature, “Pizza Movie” debuts on Hulu on April 3! Now Brian McElhaney and Nick Kocher join Matt and Oren and reveal how they keep new ideas flowing.These guys have written for SNL and “It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia” and they were the voice of Comedy Central. But they learned a lot shooting this feature, their first departure from a run-and-gun, indie style.Working with DP Bella Gonzales highlighted both the freedom and constraints that come with a bigger budget. It was different, but at the end of the day, they found a way you can use to keep doing the things you always have, with your “travelling carnival family”.Matt and Oren chat about the science of timing. What's the cadence of comedy? Is there a science to timing and beats? And can you boil it down to a unifying theory of timing --- one where scary movies and funny movies are really the same art?Best of all, there's some honest talk about that constant feeling of “damn, what I'm seeing isn't what I'm really, really happy with”. And strategies you can use to move on, and not let it hamper your work.Follow BriTANick on https://www.youtube.com/c/britanick and https://www.patreon.com/BriTANicK--- Help Matts' film: https://wefunder.com/badfeelingHelp our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/JustShootItPodMatt's Endorsement: the director's commentary for the "The Witch" by Nick Robinson on YouTubeOren's Endorsement: Go Kart kit for the Gyroor Hoverboard https://www.amazon.com/Rsq-Nylon-Shorts-Black-Medium/dp/B0FBLGQMSY?ref_=ast_sto_dp&psc=1Brian's Endorsement: "Nasal Fresh MD" nasal flushNick's Endorsement: Playboy Magazine's Collection of Interviews With Directors: the Book Hosted on Acast.

Sandra emphasizes the importance of writing, building relationships, and understanding the business side of storytelling. She also breaks down why shooting an expensive TV pilot may not be the smartest move, and how focusing on a strong portfolio and audience-building can lead to better long-term results.

Ravi Patel is a powerhouse multi-hyphenate; Emmy-nominated writer, director, and actor — lighting up screens in film and television as one of the entertainment industry's most dynamic and in-demand talents. Ravi currently stars as Amit Patel in Animal Control, FOX's #1 comedy, returning in a lead role alongside Joel McHale which has been renewed for a 5th season.  On the unscripted front, Ravi brings his signature charm and comedic energy to LEGO Masters Jr., FOX's new child-friendly competition series hosted by Kelly Osbourne which is out. The four-week special event features Ravi alongside fellow celebrity partners Andy Richter, Jordin Sparks, Porsha Williams, and Alison Sweeney, teaming up with young contestants in a high-spirited, creativity- fuelled challenge. Ravi also continued his FOX unscripted takeover participating in one of television's most extreme challenges in Special Forces: World's Toughest Test (season 4), an intense, unscripted series that pushes celebrity participants to their absolute limits — physically and mentally. On the film front, Ravi recently celebrated the 10th anniversary of his groundbreaking documentary-style romantic comedy Meet the Patels, which he co-directed and starred in alongside his sister, acclaimed director/producer Geeta Vasant Patel. Blending real-life footage with animated sequences, the award-winning film struck a chord with both South Asian and broader audiences for its authentic, humorous take on bicultural identity and modern dating. One of the most streamed documentaries of the past decade, Meet the Patels also led to a narrative remake opportunity with Fox Searchlight Pictures. Ravi also created and hosted the critically acclaimed HBO Max docuseries Ravi Patel's Pursuit of Happiness. He co-created, wrote, and starred in the Netflix India comedy Bhaag Beanie Bhaag, and served as a writer on CBS' Ghosts. As an actor, Ravi has been featured in hit television series including Master of None, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Scrubs, Grey's Anatomy, Children's Hospital, Three Women, Justified, and Transformers. His film work includes Come As You Are; Long Shot (with Seth Rogen and Charlize Theron); Wonder Woman 1984; The Valet; Harold and the Purple Crayon; and Disney+'s Dashing Through the Snow. He has also appeared as a guest on Real Time with Bill Maher, Name That Tune, and Netflix's Is It Cake? Outside of entertainment, Ravi is the co-founder of This Saves Lives, a mission-driven snack company launched alongside Kristen Bell, Todd Grinnell, and Ryan Devlin. As its former CEO and board chairman, he helped scale the company before its acquisition by Good/Upworthy. Each snack sold provides a life-saving meal packet to a child in need. He continues to advise and invest in companies focused on wellness and nutrition. Ravi will also appear in Best Pancake in the Country with Nicolas Cage and will join Ben Stiller in Apple TV limited series The Off Weeks We chat about fulfilment, ADHD, writing his yearly eulogy, grief and losing his daughter, health and wellness, his poker magazine, his thoughts about acting, ambition, Meet The Patels, one's unique medicine, wellness focussed communities + plenty more!

Today on another encore episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast we are talking to David Pressman, son of actors Lawrence Pressman and Lanna Saunders. Now if you are a fan of soap operas, you know Lanna who starred on more than 500 episodes of the NBC daytime show Days of Our Lives as Marie Horton. And if you are a fan of film you know Lawrence Pressman for his many roles starring in movies like 9 to 5, Making It and American Pie. From television, you know Lawrence Pressman from Doogie Howser M.D., The Bob Newhart Show, M*A*S*H & likely hundreds of other programs. He's a very familiar face, you just know brings a comedic edge to many of his 'oily' roles And he's still with us at age 86. (It must be all that craft service, ahem). As we learn and as we have heard on recent episodes and guests, David was born into an acting family that goes back, generations in fact – evidently his great grandfather performed on the Russian/Ukrainian stage when Minsky's Follies was simply known as Minsk. You get the picture. We are talking a long time ago! And it was the stage where both David's parents got their start as well on Broadway and other regional theater alike. But when the family moved to Los Angeles from New York when David was 7, the cameras took over for the footlights as Hollywood came calling for both his parents. And guess what? It came for David too as he had roles in films & television alike in big budget films such as Tropic Thunder & Blades of Glory as well as tv shows like Newhart, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Monk and many others. We dive deep into some behind the scenes stories involving Steve Coogan, Jane Fonda, Bob Newhart (him again) and Ben Stiller. This is a fun one. Take a listen to this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast right now.

There's a ubiquitous prop in just about every police procedural and conspiracy thriller: a cork board pinned with documents, newspaper clippings, and Polaroid photos, all connected by a web of red string. They go by many names, including pin boards, string boards, evidence boards, investigation walls, conspiracy walls, and walls of crazy. These boards can be vehicles of insight or manifestations of madness—and in many cases, both. But where did they come from? And can they really solve a crime? In this episode, we try to unwind the red string board all the way to its center. To aide in our investigation, we enlist the help of Aki Peritz, a former CIA analyst and the author of Disruption: Inside the Largest Counterterrorism Investigation in History. You'll also hear from Shawn Gilmore, editor of The Vault of Culture and creator of the Narrative String Theory project; and Dr. Anne Ganzert, author of Serial Pinboarding in Contemporary Television. And we learn about the intricacies of building a string board from production designers Michael Scott Cobb (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia) and John D. Kretschmer (Homeland). This episode was written and produced by Evan Chung, Decoder Ring's supervising producer. It was edited by Willa Paskin. Decoder Ring is also produced by Katie Shepherd and Max Freedman.
