Podcast appearances and mentions of andy farnsworth

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of May 16, 2025. While Andy had never seen any of the previous "Final Destination" movies before watching "Final Destination: Bloodlines," he did think it was clever and laughable, even if the genre wasn't his forte. But documentaries wond the weekend with Netflix's fascinating look at the internet-famous guy who ate liver (and other animal parts) raw to live an "ancestral lifestyle" in "Untold: The Liver King," and an excellent three-part series called "American Manhunt: Osama Bin Laden" that traces the search for the former World's Most Wanted man. Also on streaming, AppleTV+ has a comedic sci-fi series called "Murderbot" that Andy enjoyed watching. The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories, surpassing nerdy with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.  Based in the beautiful beehive state, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.  Listen regularly on your favorite platform, at kslnewsradio.com, or on the KSLNewsRadio App. Join the conversation on Facebook @FanEffectShow, or Instagram @FanEffectShow.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of May 9, 2025. A colorful palette and an earnest attempt at modernizing the classic Shakespearean tale just weren't enough to make Andy like "Juliet & Romeo.” But he did like watching season 2 of "Poker Face" on Peacock, with Natasha Lyonne returning in the clever murder-of-the-week series with an incredible lineup of guest stars in this new season. Also likable is "Nonnas", the new Vince Vaughn movie on Netflix. It's based on the true story of a guy on Long Island who opened a restaurant with grandmothers as chefs, cooking their favorite dishes for customers. And likeable for people other than Andy, "Fight or Flight" is an incredibly violent and bloody action comedy starring Josh Hartnett.   The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.  Based in the beautiful beehive state, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.  Listen regularly on your favorite platform, at kslnewsradio.com, or on the KSLNewsRadio App. Join the conversation on Facebook @FanEffectShow, or Instagram @FanEffectShow.

Dave and Debbie learn about the big move of the week: Juliet & Romeo from KSL Movie Show Hosts, Andy Farnsworth and Steve Salles. The Hosts also discuss movies with the most surprising twist endings.

On this "What's Your Favorite Fandom?" episode of Fan Effect, Chris Graham of "Games & Things" returns to talk all things Tolkien. While J.R.R. Tolkien's works "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings" always seemed to be a part of Producer KellieAnn's life (even her childhood dog was named after a character), Chris's introduction was more meandering yet meaningful. Together, they discuss the history, impact, and various versions of the beloved fantasy world of Tolkien, as well as how to enter the expansive fandom.  With a world-building so vast, Chris has some recommended sources to explore all things Tolkien: the fan-created wiki the Tolkien Gateway, the 12-part book series History of Middle-Earth, "Tree and Leaf" which is Tolkien's more philosophical writing, "J.R.R. Tolkien: A Biography" by Humphrey Carpenter, Deseret News' article talking to The Rings of Power' showrunner, and of course The Tolkien Professor, Dr. Corey Olsen. (Oh, and we can't forget to include KellieAnn's favorite Lembas Bread recipe to share with her fellow food-loving hobbits.)

Davis County traffic is a mess, but you will be grateful – eventually. According to the Deseret News, The new $385 million project happening in Davis County adds a new interchange, widening 1800 North. Andy Farnsworth with the KSL Traffic Center, joins Dave and Debbie to discuss how this new change is going to lighten the load for drivers in the county.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of May 2, 2025. Summer movie season unofficially gets underway this week with the release of "Thunderbolts*" from Marvel/Disney.  If you like the characters or you just like Marvel movies, you'll probably enjoy this. Another movie, this time on Amazon Prime Video, is "Another Simple Favor" from Anna Kendrick, Blake Lively, and director Paul Feig.  Hint, this sequel to the crime comedy ‘A Simple Favor' is goofy fun. And on Netflix, there is a comedy series called "The Four Seasons" from Steve Carell, Tina Fey, and Colman Domingo that's a remake of an old Alan Alda movie, but highly enjoyable for the more (ahem) mature viewer.

May has a lineup of fun fandom holidays, and we are taking advantage of the fun this weekend. Producer KellieAnn is joined again by Jonathan Trujillo King of the Utah Arts Alliance, and new nerdly friend Roger Prows, co-owner of The Nerd Store(s).  Together, they discuss their involvement in the local comic, artistic, and pop culture world. Roger expands on the history of Free Comic Book Day, while Jonathan provides the details of Star Wars Day's impact.  All three will be seen celebrating both holidays this weekend in downtown Salt Lake City (with the support and displays of our friends at FanX Salt Lake Comic Convention): The Urban Arts Gallery will have their local-artist-contributed Star Wars exhibit, Clark Planetarium will have some galactic photo opportunities with cosplayers, Dr.  Volt’s Comic Connection will have comic giveaways and many local comic creators, our FanX Hall of Fame Cosplayer friends will have a cosplay competition, there will be a Star Wars Dance party by the Utah Arts Alliance and much more more!  The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.  Based in the beautiful beehive state, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.  Listen regularly on your favorite platform, at kslnewsradio.com, or on the KSLNewsRadio App. Join the conversation on Facebook @FanEffectShow, or Instagram @FanEffectShow.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of April 25, 2025. Ben Affleck returns as the assassin/accountant on the autism spectrum in “The Accountant 2,” and this follow-up features great chemistry with Jon Bernthal as his brother. Also in theaters is a locally made film about Utah's first Olympic gold medalist, titled “Raising the Bar: The Alma Richards Story,” by our Movie Show friend, Writer/Director T.C. Christensen. This is a faith-filled family film with a sprinkling of patriotism for extra measure and an all-over good sports story.  On streaming, there's a new Tom Hardy movie on Netflix called “Havoc” with lots of bullets and lots of mess. And Star Wars fans are rejoicing as the second and final season of “Andor” hits DisneyPlus. Don't miss out on this tie-in to the 2016 movie “Rogue One,” as the lore of that galaxy far, far away is everything fans like Andy could hope for: nuanced, with plenty of intrigue, visually immersive, and even heartbreaking at times.

Local filmmaker T.C. Christensen’s latest family-friendly and faith-forward film, "Raising the Bar: The Alma Richards Story," hits theaters April 24, 2025, and we are excited to learn all about the film.

In this Movie Show Digital Extra, T.C. Christensen, writer/director/cinematographer for the new film Raising the Bar: The Alma Richards Story joins Andy Farnsworth and guest co-host KellieAnn Halvorsen to talk about the movie, including why this story is so personal for him, which parts of the story happened exactly as depicted in the film, and how he was able to recreate that specific time period.  Christensen's film tells the story of the first-ever Olympic gold medalist from Utah, Alma Richards. Hailing from the tiny town of Parowan, UT in the early 1900's, young Alma Richards can't quite figure out what he wants to do with his life.  When he discovers he excels at track and field, especially high jumping thanks to his days growing up on the farm, Richards begins a journey that will take him to Salt Lake City, Chicago and eventually Stockholm, Sweden for the 1912 Olympics. Along the way he crosses paths with some of the biggest sports names from the early 20th Century, including Amos Alonzo Stagg and Jim Thorpe. Raising the Bar: The Alma Richards Story, in theaters starting Apr. 24th, stars Paul Wuthrich, Ali Durham, Nick Matthews, Walter Platz, Sandy Hackett, Bryce Bishop, Anthony Garcia, Skyler M. Day, Pamela Beheshti and Paul Cartwright.  Directed by T.C. Christensen.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of April 18, 2025. While Andy is not a fan of horror movies, if vampire horror is your thing, "Sinners"  might appeal to you. He has to give credit to director Ryan Coogler and star Michael B. Jordan for making the deservingly R-rated movie into something pretty creative. Also in theaters, a so-so animated movie called "Sneaks" takes your *shoes* on a "Toy Story"-type adventure. And on streaming, a compelling documentary on Netflix called "Oklahoma City Bombing: American Terror" made Andy wish it were a miniseries rather than just a 90-minute film.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of April 11, 2025. With the Easter holiday just around the corner, Angel Studios has an extremely clever and well-done animated film to prepare for the celebration called "The King of Kings." The family-friendly Christian film follows Charles Dickens as he tells his young son the story of Jesus Christ, and the voice cast in this movie is unbelievable!  For non-religious features, there are a couple of Oscar winners starring in action flicks hitting the screens, led by Rami Malek in "The Amateur" in theaters, and followed by Viola Davis starring in "G20" on Amazon Prime Video. Also dropping into theaters, a preposterous (yet entertaining) thriller called "Drop" about one of the worst first dates EVER.  The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.  Based in the beautiful beehive state, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.  Listen regularly on your favorite platform, at kslnewsradio.com, or on the KSLNewsRadio App. Join the conversation on Facebook @FanEffectShow, or Instagram @FanEffectShow.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of April 4, 2025. Despite not having any experience playing Minecraft, the game, Andy found "A Minecraft Movie"  to be funny and fun to watch with his kids--who DID know the game very well. But he might have found the best thing he has seen so far this year with "Bob Trevino Likes It." A heartwarming and heartbreaking story about a young woman who accidentally becomes online friends with a man who has the same name as her estranged father. Also likable is "The Luckiest Man in America," a movie based on the true story of the man who figured out how to become unstoppable on an '80s TV game show.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of March 21, 2015. Andy actually enjoyed Disney's new "Snow White;" catchy songs, likable characters, and a good message helped him overcome the continuity problems and other issues. This is not to be confused with Producer KellieAnn’s less-than-optimal review. Also in theaters is a new (and weird) movie from Elizabeth Olsen called "The Assessment" that imagines a future dystopia devastated by climate change and the family planning repercussions of that devastation. On streaming, Netflix has "The Residence", a Shonda Rhimes-produced murder mystery comedy set in the White House where the Chief Usher winds up dead during a state dinner.   The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.  Based in the beautiful beehive state, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.  Listen regularly on your favorite platform, at kslnewsradio.com, or on the KSLNewsRadio App. Join the conversation on Facebook @FanEffectShow, or Instagram @FanEffectShow.

The latest Disney’ live-action remake was years in the making and years of remaking as critiques from actors, potential audiences, and critics alike sent it to redevelopment ‘heck.’ But finally, avid Disney fangirl, our cohost and producer KellieAnn Halvorsen, has seen and is ready to pull apart the mess of potential that is “Snow White” 2025. She is joined by Utah’s Evil Queen herself, FanX Hall of Fame Cosplayer Marial Clark, to discuss the highs (Rachel Zegler’s singing) and lows (those dwarves) and absolute nonsense that is this classic remake.  The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.  Based in the beautiful beehive state, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.  Listen regularly on your favorite platform, at kslnewsradio.com, or on the KSLNewsRadio App. Join the conversation on Facebook @FanEffectShow, or Instagram @FanEffectShow.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of March 14, 2025. The action/comedy/romance "Novacaine”  is surprisingly entertaining...If you can get past the bloody violence (and that's a big IF). A new Looney Tunes movie hit the theaters after it had been shelved, "The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie," features favorites like Daffy Duck and Porky Pig and garnered a C+ rating by Andy. And for families looking for some faith-based content in this season of Lent and Easter, Andy recommends "The Last Supper," a sincere telling of the final week of the mortal life of Jesus, as seen through the eyes of his closest followers. Streaming on Netflix, you can watch one of the most expensive films ever, "The Electric State."  It's got an amazing cast (Chris Pratt, Millie Bobby Brown, Stanley Tucci, Giancarlo Esposito, and more) and was made by the Russo Brothers. The film looks gorgeous but is still somehow missing...something.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of March 7, 2025. "Mickey 17" is an enjoyably clever sci-fi flick from Oscar-winning director Bong Joon-Ho.DisneyPlus has brought back a classic hero in "Daredevil: Born Again”  in an intense way that won't be for people who dislike violence, but fans will absolutely *love* it.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of February 28, 2025.  Ed Harris is central to our two theatrical releases this weekend, in “My Dead Friend Zoe,” which tells the story of a military veteran struggling to deal with her PTSD, and "Riff Raff", a mixed family's New Year's is upended when the father's ex-wife and son show up being chased by hit men. On streaming, Andy really enjoyed “House of David" on Amazon Prime Video. It was a pleasant surprise in that it is faithful to the source material while still managing to tell a dramatic story that doesn't go over the top. Netlfix has a new comedy series by Mindy Kaling called “Running Point" that also has some funny moments but is much more a family dramedy than a sports comedy.
