On this episode, the Cold War Cinema crew is joined by director, writer, and producer Adam McKay to discuss John Frankenheimer's paranoid, psychological thriller Seconds (1966). McKay has written and directed many celebrated feature films such as Anchorman (2004), Talladega Nights (2006), Step Brothers (2008), The Big Short (2015), Vice (2018), Don't Look Up (2021), and numerous others. Prior to this, McKay was a founding member of the Upright Citizens Brigade in the early 1990s, and head writer for Saturday Night Live from 1995 to 2001. In 2019, McKay founded Hyperobject Industries, and has served as the executive producer of HBO's Succession (2019–2023), Game Theory with Bomani Jones (2022–2023), and, most recently, The Chair Company (2025) starring Tim Robinson. Synopsis of the film: Middle-aged banker Arthur Hamilton (John Randolph) feels trapped in a life that has calcified into routine and regret. When he receives a phone call from an old friend who he thought was long dead, and a shadowy organization known simply as "the Company" offers him the ultimate second chance, he fakes his death, and undergoes radical surgery to assume a new identity. Reborn as artist Tony Wilson (Rock Hudson), he's given youth, wealth, and access to a new bohemian lifestyle on a seaside in Malibu. While his transformation at first feels intoxicating, the promise of freedom begins to fray and ultimately fracture. As Tony struggles to inhabit his new self, paranoia creeps in and the illusion of choice gives way to something far more unsettling. Shot in stark black-and-white with disorienting lenses and claustrophobic compositions, Seconds is less a sci-fi fantasy than an existential nightmare—an unsettling meditation on identity, conformity, and the seductive lie that starting over can save us from who we are. On this episode we discuss: McKay's work as a comedian, comedy writer, and filmmaker, his political and cinematic influences, the paranoid style of filmmaking in the 1960s, satire, the looming specter of climate apocalypse, why the world needs a Ho Chi Minh biopic, and much more. _____________________ We love to give book or film recommendations on the podcast, so here are ours for this episode: Adam: Jafar Panahi's It Was Just an Accident (2025) and Andrey Zvyagintsev's Leviathan (2014) Paul: A Little Solitaire: John Frankenheimer and American Film by Murray Pomerance and R.

A new book is giving the world an in-depth look at the life and career of longtime Channel 2 anchorman, Bill Kurtis, and people may or may not be surprised by why Kurtis who is 85 years old decided to write the book "Whirlwind: My Life Reporting the News" now. "What prompted it, was a fear that my tombstone would have 'Anchorman, The Movie' written on it because so many people now say 'oh yeah, you were the narrator in that movie,' and I like to say 'you know, I did a lot more -- like 60 years -- before that movie came along," explains Kurtis.

As he approaches his 91st birthday, legendary broadcaster Mort Crim proves that curiosity and adventure do not retire.Last summer, while in the middle of a cross-country RV journey, we caught up with Mort as he traveled America in his Class B Winnebago Travato with his cat Groucho. That journey is now complete, and in this follow-up conversation in RV Podcast Episode 578, Mort reflects on what the road revealed about America, aging, grief, and healing.Mort shares how seeing the country firsthand, through campgrounds, small towns, and everyday conversations, gave him a very different perspective than the one often portrayed in the media. He also speaks openly about how RVing helped him work through the grieving process after losing his wife, providing space, movement, and purpose during a difficult season of life.Now, with that chapter behind him, Mort is already making plans for a busy 2026 RV travel season, proof that living small and moving often can keep life expanding at any age.This is a thoughtful, deeply human conversation about resilience, perspective, and why the RV Lifestyle can change far more than your address.Also this week, Mike and Jen answer your RV Questions, including how much snow an RV roof can handle.
Send us a textIn February of 2019 Ron Burgandy started his podcast. You know, Ron Burgandy, “Stay Classy San Diego”, the fictional 70s character from the movie Anchorman played by Will Ferrall. When Will Farrall started the Ron Burgandy Podcast was when the AV Club announced that “Everybody has a podcast.” And that's not far from the mark. But while the sentiment might feel like it's a bad thing I completely disagree. The ability for everyday people to broadcast their thoughts, hobbies, ideas, and passions to the world for like minded people is truly one of the great marvels of our world and we should embrace it instead of making fun of it.I started my first podcast in 2020 when the world was shut down and in 2023 I started this one to showcase my love of roleplaying. Since then, I have listened to hundreds, hell thousands of podcasts, many have come and gone but the ones that endure and become successful do so for a variety of reasons. That's what we are going to talk about today on this Behind-the-Scenes episode of Epic Adventure.Joining me today will be my friend Malcolm from the Finding Atoria Podcast and we are going to talk about whey we started our podcasts in the first place, the challenges of getting them off the ground and how we keep them rolling from week to week.Malcolm, who's idea was it to start the Finding Atoria Podcast and how hard was it to put together that first episode?[Kick to Malcolm]
Adam McKay, director of Step Brothers, Anchorman, The Big Short, Vice, Don't Look Up, RETURNS for a special friday episode!!! Forrest, Conan Neutron, Kristina Oakes and Adam McKay talk about Federico Fellini's Nights of Cabiria!!!Starring Fellini's wife and muse, Giulietta Masina, as Cabiria a role she had played in the 1952 Fellini film "The White Sheik" as well. Nights of Cabiria is Fellini's last neorealist style film, right before the surrealist avant-garde period that would create films like La Dolce Vita and 8 1/2. Some of that has to do with where Italy was, just three years after Nights of Cabiria was released, Italy would be in the Economic Miracle that created the conditions for a film like La Dolce Vita. But, we see the beginnings of that change, with Nights of Cabiria highlighting the deep inequality permeating Italian Society at this time. It was difficult to get a film made where sex workers were the protagonists, only Luigi and Dino De Laurentiis would end up financing it, and yet at the Oscars it would receive Best International Film. #fellini #nightsofcabiria #filmpodcast #moviepodcast #dinodelaurentiis #bestinternationalfilm #oscars #1957 #giullianamassina #sexworkers #anora #ladolcevita #rome #romehistory #adammckay #stepbrothers #dontlookup #thebigshort #vice #vertical #livestream #livestreaming

In this episode, I draw the second film from my New York Times Jenga movie deck—Anchorman—and end up somewhere I didn't expect: a surprisingly intimate reflection on masculinity, emotional development, and the quiet fragility beneath alpha performance.Using both the film and stories from my clinical work with men and couples, I explore how so many of us were taught to perform masculinity without ever being taught how to feel, relate, or truly know ourselves. What Anchorman turns into comedy, I often see in the therapy room: men who look confident on the outside but feel disconnected, angry, or numb on the inside.I also bring in Jorge Ferrer's idea of the “omega male”—a relational, emotionally grounded alternative to dominance-based masculinity—to imagine what might emerge when the alpha role finally collapses.This isn't a movie review.It's a reflection on how masculinity breaks—and what might grow in its place.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 46: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Well, that's it in sum, isn't it? He's "El Presidente" now, isn't he? Military Dictator. Succeeding Maduro. Until he finds somebody else to “run” it. Not the elected Vice President. Not the actual winner of the last election. Not the U-N. Maybe somebody he, in his dysfunctional haze, somebody he can trust. Maybe an oil executive. Or Elon Musk. Or Catturd. The invasion was illegal there, and illegal here. The kidnapping was illegal. Declaring we would run it is illegal. Naming a proxy dictator is illegal. As was his threat yesterday to the acting president that quote “if she doesn’t do what’s right, she is going to pay a very big price, probably bigger than Maduro” and calling for her belief that her country shouldn’t be invaded by another country breaking its own laws is quote “defiant rejection.” THAT’S illegal. It’s all illegal. That’s a lot of illegal – even for Trump. And I say this, hating Maduro completely. So he needs to be impeached, if not now then a year from now. Rubio can be impeached now for deceiving Congress about its approval. And both of them turned over to the World Court. And the ramifications are almost uncountable, including emboldening them to consider this in Cuba, Greenland, Iran. The poll numbers are terrible, and the risk to Americans of terrorism and violence are just as terrible. And maybe worst of all the evidence of linkage between Putin's strange silence about his ally Maduro, and Trump's dithering about Ukraine, is terrible too. But at least it produced a pretty good Olivia Nuzzi joke. ALSO: WHY DID THEY CHANGE THE TRUMP HEALTH COVER-UP STORY AGAIN? Five significant changes, about his MRI/CT, his cardiovascular health, and now the total of Cognitive tests he's gotten in just the last nine months. Three? Not two? He's really needed three tests in nine months? To repeat the insightful question from his niece Mary Trump: Why do they have to keep giving him cognitive tests? B-Block (40:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: There's begging the new boss to let you keep your current job, then there's what CBS Legal Analyst Jan Crawford is doing for Bari Weiss to try to keep hers. Chuck Schumer comes out firing on Venezuela: with one-millionth of one barrel blazing. And just when you think Cheryl Hines can't get any dumber, Tucker Carlson tries to talk to her about vaccines. C-Block (50:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Will Ferrell did a great comedy bit at the L.A. Kings hockey game on New Year's Day and he did it for the pure joy of it. Which reminded me of the difference between amateurs and pros, and of the days when "Anchorman" was new and Will and I ad libbed a pretty good comedy bit that he said he really loved doing.

Kathryn Hahn never set out to be an explicitly comedic actress. But starting with breakthrough roles in instant classics like ‘Anchorman' and ‘Step Brothers,' she has slowly but surely established herself as a comedy powerhouse who can go toe-to-toe with everyone from Will Ferrell to Amy Poehler. So it should come as no surprise that she spent 2025 stealing scenes from Seth Rogen on his Apple TV satire ‘The Studio.' In this episode, Hahn breaks down how she embraced her character Maya's signature style, reveals the famous guest star who impressed her most, and explains how the Season 1 cliffhanger predicted the Netflix-Warner Bros. deal that could reshape Hollywood forever. She also shares stories from the sets of her iconic comedy films, discusses the dream come true of entering the Marvel universe as Agatha Harkness, and teases what fans can expect from the upcoming second season of ‘The Studio.'

Michael also dives into how movies and TV shape our understanding of the press, from “Spotlight” and “Absence of Malice” to “Anchorman” and “The Morning Show.” A wide-ranging conversation about the future of news, the state of media literacy, and why local journalism still matters.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay are kind of a big deal as they sit at their news desks to discuss one of the most oft-quoted comedies of all-time, 'Anchorman.' Bombay escalates the episode quickly by telling an opening story involving hooking up with a coworker he most definitely should've stayed away from. Then the boys find themselves trapped in a glass box of emotion while talking about a film that basically shaped the comedic stylings for a generation of moviegoers and frat bros alike. Highly improvised, and somehow maintaining a PG-13 rating, this Adam McKay classic is bolstered by a never-better Will Ferrell, who is flanked by comedic acting geniuses such as Paul Rudd and Steve Carell. Among those titans, Christina Applegate's straight man performance as Veronica Corningstone is the jazz flute solo that brings the whole piece together. It's ludicrous, over the top, and the sort of thing that sticks with you well after it's over — both the movie and our episode. Make sure you check it out till the end cause 60% of the time it's great, all the time.

From a Long Island teen interviewing his comedy heroes on a high school radio station to the producer, director, and writer behind The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Anchorman, Trainwreck, and more, Judd Apatow is a modern-day comedy icon. He sits down with Willie Geist at New York's Gotham Comedy Club to trace his rise to fame, from the tough early years and the mentorship of Garry Shandling to how the cancellation of Freaks and Geeks ultimately helped launch a generation of stars. Apatow also talks about his new scrapbook-style book Comedy Nerd, his love of stand-up, and his deep dive into documentaries, including new films on Mel Brooks and Norm Macdonald. Along the way, he reflects on how setbacks shaped his success, and the persistence that's kept him creating for more than two decades. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Take a walk through Judd Apatow’s office, like I did, and you’ll be reminded of all the successful projects he’s helped create over the years: Anchorman, Bridesmaids, Superbad, The 40-Year-Old Virgin. I joined him there to discuss his new visual memoir, Comedy Nerd: A Lifelong Obsession in Stories and Pictures. As I learn throughout our conversation, Judd’s propulsion to create isn’t to prove that he’s one of the funniest guys in the biz; it’s to figure out if he has anything to say in the first place, to work out what’s in his head. It’s something I relate to as a writer, and it’s a big part of the new book, as he documents everything he’s collected and concocted over the years and tries to make sense of this life that he’s made. As we reflect, we also talk about our most scathing reviews, why we can’t Google ourselves, and how Judd’s documentary on our mutual friend, Garry Shandling, helped cement his subject’s legacy.

From an early age, writer, director, and producer Judd Apatow has been obsessed with comedy. What started as a quest to interview comedians for his high school radio station ultimately evolved into one of the most prolific careers in Hollywood today, with hits like “The 40 Year Old Virgin,” “Knocked Up,” and “Anchorman.” Now, Apatow is looking backwards. His new book, “Comedy Nerd,” is a visual memoir of his decades in the business, working with a who's who of the biggest names in comedy. Kara and Judd talk about how he reimagined the genre of raunchy, R-rated comedies about stunted adolescence; what he got right about American masculinity in the mid-and-late 2000s; and his recent pivot to making documentaries about some of the greatest comedians of the modern era. They also discuss whether AI can be funny and the ways politics is shaping comedy right now. Questions? Comments?

FAITH BASED is a slacker comedy evoking the post-2000s wave of comedies such as ANCHORMAN and GET SMART, both of which co-star veteran comic actor David Koechner, who also makes a cameo in FAITH BASED. The real stars are Luke Barnett and Tanner Thomason, playing underachieving roommates in Reseda, Los Angeles, desperate for money and relevance. They discover how much certain Christian films make, referencing (in the film's fictional world) actual titles we've covered on Boys' Bible Study such as GOD'S NOT DEAD and WAR ROOM. Kevin Sorbo is singled out as a “D-list actor” whose attachment to low-budget Christian movies helps them reach a sheep-like audience eager for anything with a godly message. Armed with a perfect scam, Luke and Tanner set out to make a movie despite zero experience, immersing themselves in Luke's father's church to seem more legit. The plan unravels when Tanner falls for a hot Christian woman and begins embracing religion to impress her, threatening their bromance. Trouble also brews when aging exploitation star Butch Savage (Koechner) never responds to their casting offer, putting the project at risk. FAITH BASED sounds like a premise rich enough to mine for comedy, but we found the filmmakers' shallow research into Christian cinema leaves many joke opportunities on the table. The script leans on obvious critiques and swings wildly in tone, making it hard to tell whether the film aims to be cutting or heartwarming. We invite any future filmmakers critiquing Christian movies to hire Boys' Bible Study to “punch up” your scripts for a very modest consulting fee, most of which we promise to tithe!

Reviews ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - from inappropriately dressed rape victim - Best podcast ever, absolutely flawless. There is nothing they could do to make it any more perfect. 4/5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - from Zack - This is the best gun podcast around. Not only do they give great info about guns and new products but also amazing book recommendations. If you are new you should go back and listen to the old episodes and can see how the cast has grown and changed. Except Aaron he is still a cunt who can barely keep a job for more than a year or two. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - from Big Hoss - I've been listening since the beginning. I love the cast. At least most of them. They bring a diverse amount of opinions and knowledge. Even Aaron. However, Savage can be just annoying. When he speaks, I think of Brick from Anchor Man yelling “LOUD NOISES!!!” So I have a proposition for you. You get rid of “The Thumb” and I'll get rid of my thumb. (Non dominant hand of course).

He was the king of clueless confidence, the man who could steal a scene with just a raised eyebrow. Fred Willard built a decades-long career out of playing the guy who had no idea what was going on — and making sure everyone was crying laughing while he did it. From his improv roots and his unforgettable mockumentary turns in Best in Show, Waiting for Guffman, and A Mighty Wind to late-career gems on Modern Family and Anchorman, Willard never stopped delivering.But behind the laughs was a performer who hustled for decades, weathered personal scandals, and kept working until the very end. This episode dives into the triumphs, stumbles, and lasting brilliance of Fred Willard — a man who proved that being totally clueless could be an art form.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
