Join the conversation with C4 and Bryan Nehaman as they discuss the Maryland Republican Party and how it lacks cohesion and leadership moving into this election season. Later, they speak to the Maryland Delegate and the Maryland Freedom Caucus leader, Matt Morgan, about how the Republicans campaign on affordability, taxes, and public safety—but don't fight hard enough once elected. Later, they discuss how the American Hockey team's win resonates here locally after a local seafood restaurant had a fiery reply against a left-leaning press outlet's opinion on the win. C4 and Bryan are live Monday through Friday on WBAL News Radio 1090, FM 101.5, and the WBAL News Radio App.

"Strange that the victim had only one testicle stuffed in his mouth. I believe they usually come in pairs." It's the premiere of season eight of Movies That Made Us Gay, and we invited over the director of "Psycho Beach Party," Bob King, to talk about its twenty-sixth anniversary. Part 60s surf movie, part slasher, and part Hitchcock thriller - we love this movie. From the brilliant mind of the icon Charles Busch, this wacky love letter to cult cinema still holds up after all of these years. Bob breaks it all down for us, from casting memories like finding breakout talent the likes of Lauren Ambrose and Amy Adams, to iconic filming locations along Malibu Beach. "Pyscho Beach Party" is camp, queer joy, and we're so happy to bring this conversation to you for our Season 8 premiere.  Stick around for a very special edition of "Weekly Rewind featuring our own "America's Next Top Model" special correspondent Garrett Mitchell to talk "Reality Check" Inside Americals Next Top Model."

Das Beste an At the Sea von der Berlinale 2026 ist, dass Daniel anlässlich dessen noch einmal auf das viel bessere Entzugsdrama The Outrun verweisen kann. Der hier betrachtete Film hingegen ist nur mal wieder ein langweiliger Versuch, uns normalen Menschen näherzubringen, wie ach so schwer doch das Leben sehr wohlhabender Erfolgs-Künstlerfamilien ist, die jetzt vor so schweren Entscheidungen stehen, wie ob sie ihre riesige Villa am Strand nun verkaufen sollen oder nicht. Überzeugend sind hier nur Schauspieler*innen wie Amy Adams, Rainn Wilson und Murray Bartlett in den Hauptrollen - was die leeren Bilder und wirkungslosen Konzepte des Films drumherum nur noch bedauerlicher macht.

La Berlinale extiende hoy su alfombra roja. Por el Festival Internacional de Cine de Berlín van a pasar estrellas como Amy Adams, Pamela Anderson, Ethan Hawke y Juliette Binoche.Además, nos despedimos del actor James Van der Beek, protagonista de la serie 'Dawson crece', que ha fallecido a los 48 años. Hoy hablamos del arte de diseñar carteles de películas con Choche Hurtado. El ilustrador nos presenta ‘20 carteles de películas españolas como si hubiesen sido proyectadas en cines itinerantes de Ghana’. Unas copias con aroma de original… En Verso Suelto, Abraham Boba nos habla de Richard Siken, el poeta que se ha convertido en uno de los más populares en redes sociales. Con su poemario ‘Crush’, el escritor vendió alrededor de 20.000 ejemplares.Escuchar audio

Look, seriously, if you haven't seen "Arrival", watch it first. It's a great movie to go into as uninformed as possible. It's new to two of your hosts and they were blown away by this moody, complex film about the complications of language and cultural exchange. See where "Discovery" season 4 pinched some of its ideas from and then spread over way too many episodes in this 2016 film featuring Amy Adams just owning the screen. Also this week: Shran Fiction, an inexplicable accent, and title-genre confusion.

Fan Jan is taking an intellectual and deeply emotional turn this week on We Drink & We Watch Things as we answer a massive listener request to discuss the 2016 sci-fi masterpiece, "Arrival." This isn't your typical alien invasion flick; it's a quiet, beautiful, and mind-bending exploration of how we communicate and how language itself can reshape the way we perceive the very fabric of existence. Pour yourself this week's cocktail - Out of Time - and join us as we try to decipher the mysterious circular logograms of the Heptapods.This week, we contemplate the brilliant way the film treats linguistics as the ultimate tool for survival, focusing on Amy Adams' powerhouse, understated performance as Dr. Louise Banks. We marvel at the unique, ink-blot visual design of the "shells" and their inhabitants, and trace the mounting global tension as world leaders teeter on the edge of a misunderstood war. Most importantly, we reflect on the film's devastating emotional core and the non-linear "weapon" of time, asking the ultimate question: if you could see your whole life laid out before you, would you change things, or would you embrace every moment of joy and heartbreak?If you love "hard" sci-fi that prioritizes brains over blasters, or if you just want to hear us get a little misty-eyed over the beauty of the human experience, this is the episode for you. We're blending our awe for Denis Villeneuve's direction with our usual casual conversation, making this one of the most thought-provoking stops on our Fan Jan journey.This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram and TikTok to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming next. DM us what you want to hear about next or email us at wedrinkandwewatchthingspod@gmail.com.

In "Arrival" stellt Denis Villeneuve auf großartige Weise dar, was passiert, wenn man beim first contact nicht zuerst schießt, sondern Fragen stellt. Wie etabliert man Kommunikation in einer vollkommen unbekannten Sprache?

The 2013 movie Her, written and directed by Spike Jonze, stars Joaquin Phoenix, Amy Adams, Scarlett Johansson, and Rooney Mara. We see Phoenix as Theodore living an isolated life, occasionally recalling his marriage to Catherine played by Mara. The movie explores loneliness, love, and divorce, as well as technology. When Theodore acquires a new, advanced operating system that is able to relate to him and communicate with him, the Samantha artificial intelligence changes his life. Weber Wong joins the show to talk about the 2013 movie, and we also discuss FLORA, a professional creative tool with all the best text, image, and video AI models on one infinite canvas. Weber started building FLORA to help him make his own art projects at NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program, a graduate program focused on using technology to make art. -Weber Wong is the Founder and CEO of FLORA, a professional creative tool with all the best text, image and video AI models on one infinite canvas, which you can connect these together to concept rapidly and build scalable generative media workflows to accelerate your creative workflows.

This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with queer actor, writer, and comedian Olivia Levine (@olivialevine19) to talk about why the 1999 cult classic Drop Dead Gorgeous, Should've Been Gay. If you're unfamiliar with the plot, it focuses on a small town beauty pageant that turns deadly for the contestants. As with many movies from the 90s, there are a lot of things in the script that just do not hold up in 2026. We still enjoyed this movie overall, but please be aware there is a period-typical amount of ableism, racism, and homophobia.  One thing that Drop Dead Gorgeous does get right is the casting. This cast is STACKED. If you're a millennial like us, you'll recognize so many people in this movie, including Kirsten Dunst, Kirstie Alley, Denise Richards, Brittany Murphy, and Amy Adams. The acting is impeccable and the characters are delightfully unhinged in the campiest of ways. Being an SBG, the characters aren't openly queer, but we can honestly say we do not think there is a single straight character in this movie. Unfortunately, interpreting these characters as queer means there is quite a bit of BYG (bury your gays) trope throughout. For a romcom, there is a shocking amount of murders, but they are done in really over the top, comical ways (so it isn't scary to watch!).  We know one thing for sure, Drop Dead Gorgeous Should've Been Gay. Check out Olivia's monthly comedy show “Strapped” at the legendary Stonewall Inn in NYC. Keep an eye out for upcoming dates and locations for Olivia's solo comedy show “Unstuck”, which focuses on the intersection of OCD, anxiety and queerness.  Give us your own answers to our Q & Gay on Instagram and follow along on Facebook, TikTok, YouTube and BlueSky @lezhangoutpod.

He discusses Ursula K. Le Guin's work, mentions 'Arrival' (the 2016 American science fiction drama starring Amy Adams), and together we think about time loops, communicating with extra terrestrials, the definition of courage, and even the world of Horton Hears a Who!

Bienvenidos, cinéfilos hierberos, a un nuevo episodio de Cinefilia y Otras Hierbas, cine, televisión, música y videojuegos para escuchar.Hoy, continuamos con nuestro ciclo dedicado al gran Aaron Sorkin –ese maestro del diálogo afilado que nos hace creer que la política puede ser tan entretenida como un partido de tenis verbal–, nos sumergimos en Charlie Wilson's War, esa película del 2007 que, admitámoslo, no es la primera que viene a la mente cuando pensamos en su filmografía, pero que destila ese ingenio sorkiniano que tanto adoramos.Imaginemos el panorama: finales de los años 80, la Guerra Fría en su apogeo, y un congresista texano llamado Charlie Wilson –conocido como "Good Time Charlie" por su afición a las fiestas, el whiskey y las compañías femeninas– que, de repente, se convierte en el artífice de la operación encubierta más grande de la historia de la CIA. La película se basa en el libro homónimo de George Crile, un tomo de 500 páginas repleto de detalles históricos que Sorkin adaptó con maestría, condensando intrigas geopolíticas en diálogos que chisporrotean como fuegos artificiales. ¿Cómo llegó Sorkin al proyecto? Pues, en un raro acto de agresividad profesional –él mismo lo admite–, leyó el libro y lo persiguió con ahínco, convirtiéndolo en el único guion que ha "cazado" de esa manera. Y vaya si lo logró: su énfasis en los personajes imperfectos pero heroicos, como Wilson, que pasa de playboy a salvador de los muyahidines afganos, es puro Sorkin, recordándonos sus obras como The West Wing, donde la burocracia se vuelve poesía.Tom Hanks interpreta a Wilson con esa calidez hankiana que hace que hasta un político corrupto parezca simpático. Detrás de cámaras, el director Mike Nichols, en lo que sería su última película, aportó su toque magistral y supo manejar el caos de enemigos históricos colaborando –pakistaníes, israelíes, afganos– en la narrativa real, algo que el guion de Sorkin plasma con ironía sutil.Julia Roberts, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams, Ned Beatty y Emily Blunt completan la constelación de estrellas de este filme que cuenta una historia tan absurda, que no puede sino ser cierta....¡Y lo es!La película fue bien recibida en general, con un 82% de aprobación en Rotten Tomatoes, donde se alaba cómo "entretiene e informa" gracias al guion astuto de Sorkin y actuaciones sólidas. Muchos críticos la vieron como una excelente comedia oscura basada en hechos reales, destacando a Hanks como un antihéroe encantador. Sin embargo, no todo fue aplausos: algunos la tildaron de "falsa y nada divertida", con "la peor actuación de la carrera de Roberts" En premios, brilló con 5 nominaciones a los Globos de Oro –mejor película comedia, actor para Hanks, actriz de reparto para Roberts, actor de reparto para Hoffman y guion para Sorkin–, más una nominación al Oscar para Hoffman como mejor actor de reparto. La Guerra de Charlie Wilson es, quizá, la película menos conocida y popular de Sorkin –eclipsada por hits como La Red Social o El Juicio de los 7 de Chicago–, y tal vez la más "floja" de su catálogo. Pero, no les quepa duda, incluso una "floja" de Sorkin es mejor que muchas de las producciones que inundan las pantallas hoy en día: cargada de inteligencia, humor sofisticado y una lección histórica que, con un guiño irónico, nos recuerda que la política puede ser absurdamente entretenida. ¿Listos para desentrañar más? ¡No se pierdan el episodio!Patreon: patreon.com/cinefiliayotrashierbas⁠Correo: cinefiliayotrashierbas@gmail.com No olviden suscribirse, compartir este episodio y dejar un comentario y un like, eso nos ayudará a crecer y a encontrar más audiencia. ¡Que lo disfruten!#AaronSorkin⁠ ⁠#TomHanks⁠ ⁠#Cine⁠ ⁠#JuliaRoberts

It's that time of year again—when we gather by the fire, sip something warm, and queue up… movies that *technically* take place at Christmas. This week, we're unwrapping two not-quite-but-definitely-set-during-the-holidays classics: Stanley Kubrick's eerie yuletide odyssey Eyes Wide Shut (1999) and Steven Spielberg's breezy cat-and-mouse charmer Catch Me If You Can (2002). While neither film is exactly “festive,” both use the holiday season to cast their stories in a glow equal parts melancholic and mischievous. Before diving into our gift-wrap-adjacent double feature, our Blue Plate Special is packed with plenty of cinematic goodies waiting under the tree. We break down the eyebrow-raising possibility of Warner Bros. being sold to either Netflix or Paramount/Skydance—and what such a shake-up could mean for the future of the film industry. We also share our thoughts on several recent releases we've caught (Sentimental Value, The History of Sound, Jay Kelly, and Pavements), react to Quentin Tarantino's recent comments about Paul Dano and 21st-century cinema, relive our theatrical experience seeing Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair, and pay tribute to the recent losses of Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Jim Ward, Jeff Garcia, Peter Greene, and the legendary Rob Reiner.

“I'm not a stepping stone.” Join Ian, Liam & Megs for our 309th episode as we step into the sweat-soaked gyms, fractured families, and hard-won resilience of David O. Russell's The Fighter (2010). Lace up the gloves, tape the wrists, and prepare for a story about loyalty, damage, and the cost of fighting your way out of the place you came from.  We're bragging about knocking down Sugar Ray Leonard this week as we discuss: Christian Bale's extraordinary, Oscar-winning transformation — volatile, compulsive, heartbreaking. Is this one of the great supporting performances of modern cinema? Mark Wahlberg as Micky Ward — or is he just playing Mark Wahlberg with less swearing? Amy Adams' breakout performance — sharp, grounded, and unflinching. Did the camera take advantage of her though? The family dynamic — love, obligation, manipulation, and control. When does support turn into sabotage? Megs breaks down the portrayal of working-class women — authenticity, resilience, and why the female characters feel unusually real for a boxing movie. Ian explores how The Fighter subverts the sports-film formula — less about glory, more about survival and self-definition.  Is it even a boxing film? The documentary-style camerawork — raw, intimate, and invasive. How does the film blur the line between sports drama and social realism? The ethics of redemption — does Dicky earn his comeback, or does the film soften the damage he's done?  Which member of the cast just couldn't forgive him The boxing itself — brutal, unromantic, and exhausting. Does stripping away spectacle make the fights hit harder? The ending — triumphant, restrained, emotionally complicated or underwhelming? We unpack what “winning” actually means here. And finally, whether The Fighter is the Best Film Ever — or simply one of the most honest American sports dramas of the 21st century.

It's a brand new season and that means Melanie and I are studying two new topics: narrative drive and conflict triangles. Conflict and page-turners are usually associated with action stories, thrillers and the like. But DOUBT is a quiet, character-driven film that is so expertly crafted it grabs the viewer's attention immediately and holds it right to the bitter end.

It's been a year since the last time we sat down for a pod but this one is least recorded within the last month - we're making progress! Joe hosts JT, Sam, and Jono to talk all things games, TV (except this episode), and film. Games * Joe starts the show discussing Death Stranding, Hideo Kojima's unique open-world action game where you play a courier trying to reconnect a post-apocalyptic United States. * Sam heads to Steam Deck Corner to check out the wacky physics-based comedy of What the Golf? (a game that makes fun of golf) and the digitally adapted classic board game, Carcassonne (where players build a medieval French landscape one tile at a time). * JT and Jono give their first impressions after picking up the brand-new Switch 2 console. Film * Jono and JT review two major new films: the sleek sci-fi sequel Tron: Ares (about a highly advanced program crossing into the real world) and the gritty biographical sports drama The Smashing Machine (starring Dwayne Johnson as legendary MMA pioneer Mark Kerr). * Sam took inspiration from Ed Gein to watch the 1960 horror classic Psycho, directed by Alfred Hitchcock. * Joe wraps up the reviews with two genre films: Weapons: A new supernatural mystery-horror film about a group of children who all vanish at the same time and Arrival: Denis Villeneuve's thoughtful sci-fi drama about a linguist (Amy Adams) trying to communicate with aliens who have landed on Earth.

Kate Flannery and Oscar Nuñez had a mini "Office" reunion on last night's season finale of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" and went ALL THE WAY! (You'd know them as Meredith and Oscar on the show.) They even called up Brian Baumgartner (Kevin) for their "Phone-a-Friend" lifeline. As for the million-dollar question? "The word 'planet' comes from an ancient Greek word that literally means what?" Their options were "powerful," "immortal," "stranger," and "wanderer" . . . the answer being "wanderer". Kate and Oscar will be splitting their winnings between Planned Parenthood and a Philadelphia-based food bank called Philabundance. Fresh off Coachella comes Stagecoach!

Judas Priest and Ozzy's family released a new version of “War Pigs” after missing Black Sabbath's farewell show. Halford called it a career highlight: “It's the first duet I've ever done with Ozzy, and I'm eternally grateful.” Proceeds go to the Glenn Tipton Parkinson's Foundation and Cure Parkinson's, honoring both Tipton's and Ozzy's battles with the disease.Taylor Swift Heading to FallonTaylor Swift is taking The Life of a Showgirl to late night. She'll appear on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on October 6, just three days after her album release and one day after fiancé Travis Kelce's birthday. Fallon teased the appearance in a cryptic roulette-themed post landing on Swift's lucky number, 13. This marks Taylor's seventh Tonight Show stop, alongside guests Keri Russell and a performance from The Format.Queen Eyeing Vegas Sphere ResidencyBrian May says Queen is seriously considering a Las Vegas Sphere residency after seeing the Eagles perform there. He told Rolling Stone, “The kind of show we could put on would be absolutely stupendous.” While May admits he's weary of traditional touring after 50 years, the Sphere could give the band a spectacular new stage without the grind of life on the road. Katie Couric pokes fun at Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle ad in a new PSA for colon cancer screenings. The clip opens to a close-up of Katie wearing a jean jacket, and quickly pans out to show she's wearing a hospital gown underneath, and she's on a gurney getting ready for a colonoscopy. She tells the camera, quote, "Speaking of genes. Did you know that the majority of people who develop colon cancer are not genetically predisposed to the disease? That's why doctors recommend everyone 45 and older get checked." Katie told "People" magazine, quote, "That ad showed how pop culture and a pair of jeans could really shape the cultural conversation, it was everywhere. It was a moment in time, and we thought, 'Why don't we ride that horse a little bit longer and have some fun with it?'" It'sbeen 25 years since Katie became the first person in history to broadcast a colonoscopy on national TV. She lost her husband to colon cancer in 1998. He was only 42. One of the most famous homes in American history is opening its doors to the public for the first time ever. The "Brady Bunch" house in North Hollywood will be accessible to fans on November 7th, 8th, and 9th. And while bookings are sold out, you can register to be on a waitlist, or be notified if additional dates become available. When the show was in production back in the day, the house was only used for EXTERIOR shots. The inside of the Brady home was created on a soundstage, and the inside of the actual house looked nothing like it. But HGTV bought the house in 2018, and renovated it so that it DOES match the house from the show. And of course, they recorded it for a series called "A Very Brady Renovation". Alyssa Milano, now 52, announced on Instagram that she underwent surgery to remove her breast implants—calling it a step toward reclaiming her body.

People.com+2The Cut+2 She also expressed hope that her 11-year-old daughter will be spared similar pressure. Page Six+1She made clear this was her personal decision and not a judgment on others who choose differently. People.com+2The Cut+2 After the procedure, she posted she's resting comfortably and thanked fans for their support. Sacha Baron Cohen, 53, has been spotted on a dinner date with 27-year-old OnlyFans creator Hannah Palmer, just months after finalizing his $75 million divorce from Isla Fisher. Page SixThe pair were seen leaving the restaurant separately before getting into the same Cadillac Escalade. Page Six+1Sources say they first met at Taika Waititi's 50th birthday party in Ibiza, with Rita Ora reportedly introducing them. Although the age gap raised eyebrows, insiders say they “seemed to be getting on really well.” Page Six+1Cohen and Fisher married in 2010, share three children, and announced their split in 2024 before finalizing the divorce this past June. Action legend Chuck Norris, now 85, marked his birthday by hiking Lassen Peak in Northern California—a strenuous trail rising to 10,457 feet. The round-trip journey spans about 5 miles and climbs 2,000 feet, often taking 4 to 5 hours to complete. Outside OnlineOn Instagram, Norris reflected on the trail's long recovery since the 2021 Dixie Fire, saying while the damage is heartbreaking, “the park's beauty still shines through.” Outside Online+2Active NorCal+2 He also credited his wife for introducing him to the region's natural splendor. It's official: HBO Max wants to traumatize your children. What other reason could there be for them to produce a brand new, animated version of "Charlotte's Web", one of the greatest children's stories ever told . . . until it becomes the most heart-wrenchingly brutal story in the history of mankind? This one is a limited series, told in three parts, which will all be released on Thursday, October 2nd. It stars Amy Adams as Charlotte, Elijah Wood as Wilbur the pig, and Jean Smart as the narrator. The voice cast also includes Cynthia Erivo, Randall Park, and Rosario Dawson. HBO Max released a clip yesterday of a scene between Charlotte and the young version of Wilbur, voiced by Griffin Robert Faulkner.

This week welcome Stacie Greenwell into the Pol' Atteu Beverly Hills Boutique. Hollywood may be built on stories, but few are as fiercely fabulous and unexpectedly heartfelt as hers. In our dazzling “Undressed” sit-down, we welcome the award-nominated scene-stealer whose breakout line “F*ck the police” from Amazon Prime Video's Cross had fans gagged—and law enforcement shook! Kicking things off with signature sass, we roll out the red carpet for Stacie (yes, in green!) and dive into her seriously stacked resume—from Shameless to Sharp Objects with Amy Adams, to Big Little Lies with Reese Witherspoon and The Pit (hello, twisted testicles!). She spills all about being handpicked by the late, legendary director Jean-Marc Vallée, who kept sliding her into emotional scenes because he saw something extraordinary in her. Spoiler alert: he was right. But the real plot twist? Before stealing scenes on screen, Stacie was slaying in the courtroom. A University of Virginia Law grad and former Washington D.C. bankruptcy attorney, she recounts the life-changing moment in a law library when a voice whispered, “This is not your life.” One mock trial and a wig later, she was hooked on performance—and Broadway, baby! We insist she got off the bus and landed on a billboard. Honestly? Not far from the truth. As the convo heats up, on our Gown and Out in Beverly Hills connections to Modern Family, and bond with Stacie over shared Emmy hopes. (She was submitted for not one but TWO categories: Guest Actress in The Pit and Supporting Actress in Cross—yes, queens manifest!) We even get some juicy Jeff Bezos wedding FOMO, throwbacks to our Emmys encounter, and why Beverly Hills PD officers are hotter than hot. (Six-packs and skincare routines? Sign us up.) The glamour hits a cosmic high with Pol's Armenian coffee reading, which brings chills and truth bombs. An "E" appears in Stacie's cup—revealing Cousin Erica as her spiritual anchor and greatest supporter. The reading also uncovers her desire to write—a second calling that's destined to unlock a whole new dimension of her career. Whether it's a memoir, screenplay, or her own pilot, the universe is saying: the pen is your power, girl. ✍️ This episode is brimming with soul, sparkle, and major laughs—from nipping dogs and self-tape disasters to iconic moments with Martha Stewart, Katie Couric, and Judge Lauren Lake (yes, the singing judge!). It's a masterclass in intuition, reinvention, and letting your spirit lead you from the courtroom to the soundstage.
