In this in-depth conversation, writer and franchise caretaker Andrew E.C. Gaska joins John Siuntres to discuss his work revitalizing three of science fiction's most enduring universes — Planet of the Apes, Buck Rogers, and Space: 1999.Gaska talks about balancing canon, continuity, and creativity as he builds connective tissue between classic stories and modern reimaginings. For Planet of the Apes, he explains how his novels Conspiracy of the Planet of the Apes and Death of the Planet of the Apes expand the original film mythology, deepening the lore around the astronauts, the forbidden zone, and the political world of the apes. Turning to Buck Rogers, Gaska outlines his efforts to restore the franchise to its pulp and serial roots, steering away from camp and back toward the raw, forward-looking adventure of Philip Francis Nowlan's original creation. He also teases his plans for reconnecting Buck's 20th-century origins with a plausible 25th-century future.Finally, Gaska delves into Space: 1999, discussing his work on To Everything That Was and the Aftershock and Awe graphic novel, which translate the cult 1970s series into a coherent expanded universe. He breaks down the philosophical themes of isolation, humanity's place in the cosmos, and the Cold War anxieties baked into the show's DNA — and how he modernized them for today's audience.The conversation highlights Gaska's approach as both a fan and historian, preserving the essence of each franchise while giving it new life.

In this 2018 Word Balloon conversation, comedian, writer, and producer Dana Gould joins John Siuntres for a deep dive into his creative journey adapting Rod Serling's original Planet of the Apes screenplay into a graphic novel for BOOM! Studios. Gould discusses how Serling's early drafts differed from the final 1968 film — delving into the satire, social commentary, and Cold War paranoia that Serling originally intended.The interview also explores Gould's other creative outlets, including his acclaimed “Dana Gould Hour” podcast, where his sharp wit and fascination with old Hollywood, horror, and pop culture shine through. Rounding out the discussion, Gould talks about his work on IFC's Stan Against Evil — the offbeat supernatural comedy he created and starred in — and how it channels his lifelong love of classic horror and monster movies. It's a lively, funny, and insightful chat with one of the sharpest minds blending comedy, commentary, and the weird corners of genre storytelling.

La Asociación de Periodistas de El Salvador, principal gremio del país, anunció que trasladará su personería jurídica a otro país de la región, frente al hostigamiento que padece la prensa bajo el Gobierno de Nayib Bukele. En lo que va del año, decenas de periodistas partieron al exilio, asfixiados por las presiones y dificultades para reportar de forma independiente en el país centroamericano. Una necesidad urgente de trabajar sin limitaciones, ni presiones. Así describió la Asociación de Periodistas de El Salvador (APES) sus motivos para partir al exilio. Denuncian que el Gobierno de Nayib Bukele les puso palos en la rueda no solo por no renovar sus credenciales, sino también por la reciente promulgación de la Ley de Agentes Extranjeros, que establece un impuesto del 30% a toda organización o persona sobre fondos o donaciones que reciban del extranjero, y que también impone la creación de un registro obligatorio al cual la asociación se negó. “Un miedo generalizado” Creada en el año 1936, la Asociación de Periodistas de El Salvador denuncia que ejercer el periodismo en El Salvador hoy es solo comparable a tiempos de la guerra civil. RFI conversó con su presidente, Sergio Arauz. “En los últimos cinco años, se está experimentando un retroceso que solo es comparable con los años de la guerra civil. ¿A qué me refiero? A un miedo generalizado y un clima de temor y autocensura en todo el ecosistema de El Salvador. Hablamos de un aumento importante, de la duplicación de agresiones que registramos en 2024 en la Asociación de Periodistas. Pasamos de un poco más de 300 agresiones a 789 agresiones en todo 2024. No estamos contando el 2025”, explica Arauz. “Todos los indicadores que tenemos en la APES, a través de nuestro centro de monitoreo, indican no solo un número alto de agresiones, desde las más leves hasta las más graves, [sino también] desplazamientos forzados, visitas e intimidación de cuerpos de seguridad, perfilamientos y el uso del aparato judicial para intimidar”, detalla. “Seguir siendo referentes” desde el exterior Según Arauz, en lo que va del año, 43 periodistas salvadoreños debieron partir al exilio. En el último Índice Mundial de Libertad de Expresión publicado por Reporteros Sin Fronteras, El Salvador ocupa el puesto 135 de 180. “Tomamos esta difícil decisión de salir, de trasladar nuestra operación y nuestra personería para poder seguir siendo referentes, para seguir teniendo incidencia y para seguir, principalmente, prestando servicios de atención a los periodistas de El Salvador y a los periodistas en el exilio o en el exterior, que son salvadoreños”, indica Arauz. “¿Y qué servicios prestamos? Nuestro centro de monitoreo. Tenemos un número que está en nuestras redes sociales al que pueden seguir llamando. Tenemos una clínica de auxilios jurídicos que también sigue funcionando, y tenemos posibilidades de atención o de terapia psicoemocional, y la única forma que encontramos para seguir prestando es movilizando nuestra operación a un país seguro de la región”, señala asimismo. Arauz afirma que aún no develarán a qué país se trasladan, hasta no tener en mano todos los trámites legales que, asegura, ya están muy avanzados.

As a girl in England, Jane Goodall dreamed of traveling to Africa to study animals in the wild. In 1960, that dream brought her to Tanzania, to observe the wild chimpanzees at Gombe Stream Park. As she describes in this episode, other scientists did not believe that a young woman could survive alone in the bush, but Jane Goodall did more than survive. Her work revolutionized the field of primatology. She was the first to document chimpanzees making and using tools, an activity that had been thought exclusively humans. Over the years she also witnessed cooperative hunting and altruism, but also brutality and even warfare among chimps. Her work, the longest continuous field study of any living creature, has given us deep insights into the evolution of our own species. Since the 1980's, she has devoted herself single-mindedly to educating the public worldwide about the connections between animal welfare, the environment, and human progress.

Today on another bonus episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to a lost, family friend. Our guest today is actress and voice over actress extraordinaire, Pamela Dillman. How we connected to Pamela actually thanks to one of you, our listeners, Barbara Bassett, who alerted us to an interview with Pamela on another site and mentioned she was friends with Mia Kovacs, sister to host Josh Mills. What? Yes really. So we reached out and lo and behold, Pamela could not have been nicer, more kind, more loving in her effusive answer to, did she want to be a guest on our podcast. An emphatic yes! Pamela spoke to us about growing up the daughter of actor Bradford Dillman and the step daughter of one of the world's most famous models, Suzy Parker. Our conversation with Pamela involved everything from growing up with Mia and attending the very proper John Thomas Dye school in Los Angeles, to remembering going to Las Vegas and being in the wings when Mia's & Josh's mother Edie Adams was performing her cabaret act at Caesar's Palace on the strip and much more in between.. We also discuss Pam's working actor dad (her words, not ours) who is known for roles in everything from Escape From Planet of the Apes, The Enforcer, his breakout role in the film Compulsion and much, much more. And of course, how could we forget about Suzy Parker, a woman so famous, none other than The Beatles wrote a song about her? We seemingly split our time talking as if we were in group therapy or the grousing about the ridiculousness of Hollywood acting auditions, how her dad became a scout for the San Francisco 49ers football team as well as a truly harrowing story involving her sibling that you won't soon forget. This is the Rarified Heir Podcast. Get ready for an emotional one.

Here is a simple story about the origins of the human brain: All primate brains are good at packing neurons into a small space—they are neural supercomputers. The human brain is just what you'd expect from a monkey of our size: big, packed with neurons, but no more special than that. It's the chimps and gorillas who are special: without cooked food, their brains stay oddly small.Or so argues Suzana Herculano-Houzel, my guest in last week's episode. In today's episode, paleo-neurologist Dean Falk argues that the story is stranger still.I'll let her tell you why.Enjoy!DIG DEEPERSee also last spring's episode with Dean Falk on toolmaking and childhoods, as part of the Origins of Humankind -series.

Were U.S. soldiers in Vietnam battling only human enemies—or were they also encountering undiscovered apes in the jungle? Author RC Bramhall joins Dark Outdoors to reveal the terrifying legend of the Rock Apes. Were U.S. soldiers in the Vietnam War facing more than just human enemies? Many veterans swore they encountered Bigfoot-like creatures, known as the “Rock Apes,” while fighting in the dense jungles of Southeast Asia. On this episode of Dark Outdoors, RC Bramhall, author of Haunted War Tales, joins Chester Moore to share chilling stories of these bipedal, ape-like beings and the battles that ensued. Blending military history, cryptid lore, and firsthand soldier accounts, Bramhall explores whether these encounters were stress-induced hallucinations or genuine brushes with an undiscovered primate. If you're drawn to the eerie crossroads of war stories, wilderness mysteries, and the legend of Bigfoot, this episode is one you can't miss.
Suspect that opened fire outside of a Catholic Church in Minneapolis, killing two children and injurying 18 others was a trans person.

Then the guys discuss Trump potentially sending the National Guard to Chicago with Mayor Brandon Johnson and Governor J. B. Pritzker strongly opposing this move.

What happens when a Florida hunter stumbles onto more than just deer in the palmettos? In this gripping and emotional episode, we sit down with Stephen, a traditional bow maker whose life was forever changed one Thanksgiving morning in 1995. Deep inside Three Lakes Wildlife Management Area, Stephen and his hunting partner came face to face with not one — but two Sasquatch, including a massive black female clutching what may have been a baby or a pregnancy.Stephen recounts eerie moments from the swamps — snapped oak branches, thunderous bipedal chases, and the unforgettable sight of a bow-legged creature fleeing into the palmettos. We also trace his early childhood encounter in Massachusetts, the footprint discovery in Indiana, and the anxiety that followed these life-altering experiences.From Island Pond to Johnson Slough, this episode digs into what it means to be a knower — and why one family of swamp apes left a hunter forever changed. More than just a sighting, this story raises questions about fear, belief, and the truths hiding in our forests.
David wants to know who he is via an online personality test so Don joins. But how they are now versus when they were at 25 and according to their ex-wife's is very different.
Show notes provided by Jack AdrienBefore the entertainment and media industry's endless stream of sequels, reboots, reimaginings, remakes, franchises, or tentpoles, there was The Planet of the Apes. Starting in 1963 as French author Pierre Boulle's novel, La Planète des singes – or better known in the United States as Planet of the Apes in the United Kingdom as Monkey Planet, respectively – the intellectual property gained international acclaim through its synonymous 1968 film adaption directed by Franklin J. Schaffner and starring Charlton Heston. Most filmgoers remember the film adaptation for arguably one of cinema's most famous twist endings [57-YEAR SPOILER WARNING: Charlton Heston and the other astronauts were never on another planet, their spaceship returned to a post-apocalyptic Earth 2006 years after their in-universe 1972 departure with intelligent apes as the dominant life form] . A critical and commercial success, the film adaptation spawned three film sequels (i.e., Beneath the Planet of the Apes released on May 27, 1970; Escape from the Planet of the Apes released on May 21, 1971; Conquest of the Planet of the Apes released on June 29, 1972; and Battle for the Planet of the Apes released on June 15, 1973). Ignoring the best forgotten Tim Burton remake released on July 27, 2001, the franchise gained a new life as the Rise of the Planet of the Apes reboot spawning three successful sequels (i.e., Dawn of the Planet of the Apes released on July 11, 2014; War for the Planet of the Apes released on July 14, 2017; and Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes released on May 10, 2024). The new series introduced social awareness themes of animal genetic therapy experimentation, environmentalism, and human indifference of the natural world to a new generation. Join the Mint Condition crew of James, Joe, Josh, and Jack as we trace the legacy of The Planet of Apes' novel, original series, comic book, television series, animated series, toys, and other merchandise.
In the beginning, there were Cryptokitties. Well, maybe it wasn’t THE beginning, but it was the beginning of NFTs. In 2020, there were Blockchain Heroes. And meanwhile on Ethereum, some Punks and Apes took over the world, with some NFTs commanding 7-figure prices. The world was rife with birds, mutants, doodles and all varieties of digital art. Then, the crash happened. And it happened bigly. The promise of digital ownership had been betrayed and the value of everyone’s pixels came tumbling down. Ouch. But here we are in 2025, and something is stirring in the NFT world. Today we’ll examine the past, present and future of the NFT world.

Brent's out sick (again—we suspect “banana flu”), so Kevin Crispin of Behind Beautiful Things returns to the co-host seat, bravely facing the weird without a net or a breathalyzer.First up: were our primate ancestors a bunch of jungle drunks? New research says our ability to metabolize alcohol might trace back to apes that got buzzed on fermented fruit. Evolution's happy hour, anyone?Then we cast our bleary eyes skyward at Comet 3I (aka ATLAS), which some folks think might not be a comet at all… but an alien probe. Is it just icy space junk—or are E.T.'s creepy cousins doing a flyby?It's an interstellar cocktail of cosmic conspiracy and evolutionary inebriation this week as Kevin and Conspiracy Bot try not to spill their drinks... or their dignity.Links & Resources
