Al Lowe Huff drags in a portable smelter -- and Dave gets high off the fumes -- for The Gold, a six-part scripted story about the 1983 Brink's Mat robbery in the UK. We're talking about proportions of process-iness, the class struggle in South London, and how much BAFTA-bait monologuing is too much, before we go Around The Dial with The Other Black Girl, Harry Wild, Whitstable Pearl, and Cagney & Lacey. (And Sean Connery. Don't ask.) Then Laura unfurled HER list of reasons we should consider a My Name Is Earl episode for the Canon. Disney won, Jeremy Strong lost, and we tried to connect the TV dots in Game Time. Put your corrupt lawyer on speed-dial for an all-new Extra Hot Great. GUESTS
Fred has become known as the nation's favourite maitre d' and TV personality.He initially wanted to be a chef, but having decided that the repetitive nature of professional cooking would stifle his creativity, he switched his attention to the front of house and has never looked back. Fred worked in Michelin-starred restaurants in both France and the UK, and rose to fame back in 2013 on Channel 4's BAFTA-winning matchmaking show First Dates, where his warmth and charm was a tonic to the nerve-wracked daters entering the first dates restaurant.A very successful TV career has come off the back of that and he's become a well-known and in-demand presenter, as the presenter of Remarkable Places to Eat on the BBC, and and he also travels the world with Gordon Ramsay and Gino D'Acampo on ITV's Gordon, Gino and Fred's Road Trip series.Thank you to our sponsor Deliveroo for supporting us this season and helping us to bring the show to you every week.Don't forget to come and find us on Instagram and Tiktok @desertislanddishes Hosted on Acast.

Traveling all over the world, Bertie Gregory has filmed some of the most intense and dramatic footage of many species. As a filmmaker and TV presenter, he shares his passion for wildlife and conservation to the masses. His new series, "Animals Up Close" premieres this week on National Geographic and Disney TV+. Please check it out, some of the sequences are just straight jaw dropping and intense (hint: Orcas/Antarctica).

Felicity Jones absolutely slays as Steven Hawkins life partner and caretaker in another heartbreaking performance in The Theory of Everything. Marion Cotillard received her second Oscar nomination playing a woman struggling with depression fighting for her job.

A lyrical tapestry of a place and people, KING COAL meditates on the complex history and future of the coal industry, the communities it has built, and the myths it has created. Director Elaine McMillion Sheldon reshapes the boundaries of documentary filmmaking in a spectacularly beautiful and deeply moving immersion into Central Appalachia where coal is not just a resource, but a way of life, imagining the ways a community can re-envision itself. Central Appalachia is a place of mountains and myth and Academy Award-nominated and Emmy and Peabody Award-winning documentary filmmaker Elaine McMillion Sheldon knows this well, calling those mountains home. KING COAL has had a profound influence on this community's identity, but Sheldon dares to consider what future stories might look like out of the shadow of coal, now that relationships to coal are changing. She takes us on an alluring cinematic journey through the past, present, and future of Appalachia. Sheldon's distinct vision remixes present-day moments of life in a coal-mining town with archival footage and atmospheric invocations of the land to alchemize something new — a rare, nuanced depiction of this community. A young girl learning the story of coal anchors the journey while Sheldon's poetic voiceover guides us through the experience and an expressive score differentiates the reality of coal from a more imaginative world. This hybrid approach allows our guest, Elaine McMillion Sheldon to explore the act of storytelling itself and is a magical reclamation of the power of stories to shape how a region sees itself. Emerging from the long shadows of the coal mines, KING COAL untangles the pain from the beauty, and illuminates the innately human capacity for change. Directed by Emmy-winning & Oscar-nominated filmmaker, Elaine McMIllion Sheldon. Produced by Oscar & BAFTA winners, Shane Boris and Diane Becker For more go to: kingcoalfilm.com Los Angeles, CA - August 25 @ Laemmle Glendale

Award-winning TV producer and until recently Chair of BAFTA, Krish Majumdar joins us to look back on his eventful reign at the British Academy, and working with the likes of Kate Winslet and Elliot Page. It's also our last pod before the live 250th episode and James is off, apparently sunning himself at his Tuscan retreat, so Basic Bingers legend and editor of Crime Monthly magazine, Steph Seelan is back, joining Boyd and Kay to discuss dystopian comedy Henpocalypse, the return of ITV's Jane Austen-ish period drama Sanditon, and, in a bold departure from the stuff we usually review, Running Wild With Bear Grylls: The Challenge on National Geographic, which does at least feature Benedict Cumberbatch being very brave.
"You don't always have to get an A. Sometimes, take it easy and let the universe take you for a ride."Originally from Serbia and fluent in four languages, Sean Dubravac was passionate about helping underdeveloped countries; he wanted to work at the UN or an NGO, so he graduated in International Development Studies from UCLA. As he needed to make money to pay for his college degree, he started throwing parties for film premieres, wrap parties, and fashion events. Eventually, he started hanging out with actors, producers, and writers and became a publicist for some of them. Before he knew it, he was in love with the industry. Then he and his partner and long-time friend, Matt Ilczuk, started Entertainment Lab, which started as a company with no physical offices, and now has two locations, one in LA and one in NY. Entertainment Lab is a Talent & Literary Management company guiding actors, writers, and directors in film, TV, theater, commercial, print, and voice-over work.

She'll wantto get into a fast car, one low to the ground, and driveto some cinderblock shithole in the desertwhere she can drink and get sick and thendance in nothing but her underwear. You knowwhere she's headed, you know she'll wake upwith an ache she can't locate and no moneyand a terrible thirst. So to hellwith your warm hands sliding inside my shirtand your tongue down my throatlike an oxygen tube. Cover mein black plastic.

LaunchLeft is an alliance of left-of-center artists, a curated ecosystem that includes a podcast, label and NFT gallery. --------------------- IN THIS EPISODE: [02:23] Ryan tells how he and Rafiq came to collaborate. [08:25] Ian explains how they became composers for Everything, Everywhere, All At Once. [10:26] Rafiq shares what they have been working on recently. [12:39] Ryan comments on the reward versus the work and how the work won out. [17:42] Qasim Naqvi reveals how he met the members of Son Lux, and they all reflect on their times together. [25:02] Ryan talks about how their music is visual, and Qasim Naquiv discusses the modular synthesis while they land on making music with what they have. [40:03] Listen to “The Curve” by Qasim Naqvi. KEY TAKEAWAYS: The difference between performing on stage and recording in a studio is night-and-day. When you find like-minded artists who appreciate each other's talents, you have a winning combination. Sometimes it’s the accident that makes the music. It’s called working with what you have. BIOGRAPHIES:: SON LUX BIO: From the start, Son Lux has operated as something akin to a sonic test kitchen. The Academy Award® and BAFTA-nominated band strives to question deeply held assumptions about how music is made and reconstruct it from a molecular level. What began as a solo project for founder Ryan Lott expanded in 2014, thanks to a kinship with Ian Chang and Rafiq Bhatia too strong to ignore. The trio strengthened their chemistry and honed their collective intuition while creating, releasing, and touring six recordings, including Brighter Wounds (2018) and the triple album Tomorrows (2021). The result is a carefully cultivated musical language rooted in curiosity and balancing opposites that largely eschews genre and structural conventions. And yet, the band remains audibly indebted to iconoclastic artists in soul, hip-hop, and experimental improvisation who themselves carved new paths forward. Distilling these varied influences, Son Lux searches for an equilibrium of raw emotional intimacy and meticulous electronic constructions. Son Lux has most recently scored the new Daniels film for A24, Everything Everywhere All at Once (March 2022). The full score album features new collaborations with Mitski, David Byrne, Randy Newman, and Moses Sumney, among others. Based in New York, Rafiq Bhatia is the first-generation American son of Muslim immigrant parents who trace their ancestry to India through East Africa. Early influences such as Jimi Hendrix, John Coltrane, and Madlib—as well as mentors and collaborators including Vijay Iyer and Billy Hart—prompted him to see music as a way to actively shape and represent his own identity, not limited by anyone else’s prescribed perspective. When Ian Chang describes his creative process, the phrase "third culture” keeps coming up. Born in the colony of Hong Kong in 1988, Chang has lived a nomadic life. Stationed out of New York for ten years and since relocated to Dallas, Texas, he built an impressive roster of progressive pop collaborators such as Moses Sumney, Joan As Policewoman, and Matthew Dear, among others, all while performing internationally and recording as a member of Son Lux and Landlady. Ryan Lott makes his home in Los Angeles but grew up all over the United States. Music was the one constant in his formative years spent at the piano. In addition to an extensive career writing music for dance, he has become a sought-after composer for advertising, television, and film. Lott’s feature film credits include The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby (2014), Paper Towns (2015), and Mean Dreams (2017). He has co-produced and co-written music for and with Woodkid, Sufjan Stevens, and Lorde. BIOGRAPHY: QASIM NAQVI Qasim Naqvi is a drummer and founding member of Dawn of Midi.

“Until we can use our will to live consciously and make wise choices every day, to be self-aware, to self-observer and be virtuous, we cannot lay claim to the kingdom.” -- Geoff Thompson In this second hour with Geoff Thompson (best-selling author of nearly 50 books, successful playwright, BAFTA award winning screenwriter, and one of the world's highest ranking martial arts teachers), we get into more depth on the Law of Reciprocity (aka Law of Compensation, Law of Cause and Effect, Law of Karma, etc.), the forces of good and evil, the power of the will, and how we can use entanglement to thrive. He also tells the story of how his single act of compassion transformed a neighborhood street in London. In Part 1 (Episode 218 - Freedom Through Forgiveness) Geoff shared his experience of confronting his childhood abuser as an adult with truth and forgiveness rather than vengeance. He embarked upon a journey of turning into his fear and converting it to light. Geoff's most recent book, 99 Reasons to Forgive and Revenge Ain't One, catalogues his personal experience of transformation and the power of forgiveness. Some of the things we discuss in this episode are: • If the judicial law doesn't serve you, you don't need to concern yourself because the law of reciprocity is impeccable • We have evil and good inclinations like a right terminal of energy and left energy of energy in a lightbulb • The best way to keep the dark forces at bay is to constantly be in a place of love • Simple message – just live kindly (the golden rule) • Understand the rules of life – they are restrictive and protective It is the will that makes the change from cultural conditioning • The part of us that exercises the will is our true authentic self • Everything is connected – we are in a sense responsible for everything that happens, so we want to contribute in a positive way • Revenge interrupts the flow of love The Forgiveness Project: www.theforgivenessproject.com/stories-li…-thompson/ Instagram: @geoff_thompson_official Book: www.amazon.com/99-Reasons-Forgiv…int/dp/1803411341 © the spiritual forum 2023 #forgiveness #lightanddark #goodandevil #authenticself #revenge #karma

Today https://www.actonthis.tv is the TV industry's LEADING knowledge platform - hosting hundreds of hours of audio and video interviews with the BIGGEST casting directors, agents, BAFTA and Oscar-winning actors, writers and producers in the business. - Act On This - The TV Actors' Network Main site: https://www.actonthis.tv FB Page: https://www.facebook.com/ActOnThisTV/ FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ActOnThisTV Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/actonthistv/ Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/ActOnThisTV/ - Bulletproof Actor Main Site: https://www.bulletproofactor.com Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/BulletproofAct/ - Subscribe to my VIP newsletter for updates and giveaways: https://www.actonthis.tv/subscribe
