Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s much-hyped Netflix “renewal” is more smoke than fire, with insiders insisting the PR spin far outweighs any real payday. Meanwhile, Chris Hemsworth’s 42nd birthday in Ibiza brought out a galaxy of stars — Matt Damon, Rita Ora, Taika Waititi, Liam Hemsworth — but notably left Ben Affleck off the guest list. And back in New York, Pete Davidson’s claims of feeling like an outsider on Saturday Night Live aren’t winning sympathy, with sources saying the cast is tired of him being “more famous for dating than comedy.” Instinct magazine’s Corey Andrew joins Rob with all the dish!

You know the feeling: when you lock eyes and the look lingers just a little too long. His hand brushes over his fly. And boom! A small smile confirms it: You're about to be cruising, my king!And all it took was a public park, centuries of sexual shame, and a little bit of courage to get you there...Now it's no surprise that the elegant and much-envied act of Fucking in Public has been around for thousands of years.But how did the "radical pastime" of modern-day cruising develop? Why did men start having sex with men in public parks and bathrooms? And why, in an allegedly sexually liberated world, do we still cruise today?Join Bash and his guest this week, Professor Alex Espinoza, as they chart over 4,000 years of men getting it off with men. From the Roman bathhouse to Paris' first urban parks, this is a steamy, rushed romp through history designed to be enjoyed from your very own public bathroom stall.You're welcome.We will cover:Why cruising needs cities, strangers, and the thrill of getting caught to really thriveThe ancient rules of cruising the Roman bathhouseHow policing and persecution actually helped cruising thrive, creating the modern "homosexual"Cruising as class-conscious RESISTANCEThe rise of cottaging in London's public bathroomsAl Pacino's absurdly terrible 1980 film CruisingWhether the eroticism of "looking" can survive Grindr's Era of Headless Torsos

The Best Ball Bash and Randomizer return for one of the last episodes in the 2025 season and it's a real doozy.

Greg and Dane begin their first real-time arc here on The Squared Circle Time Machine as they review a storyline from 1994-95 WCW. It's the August 1994 episode of the Clash of the Champions featuring the big rematch from Bash at the Beach between Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair for the WCW title! But this rematch may be ruined by a man in a mask pulling a Nancy Kerrigan on the Hulkster brother! Can Hogan walk five blocks from the hospital to his match with the Nature Boy in time? We also got Dusty and Dustin Rhodes battling Col. Rob Parker's Stud Stable, along with an epic US title match between Ricky Steamboat and Steve Austin among others!
This week on Best Ball Bash Cole O joins to draft a Best Ball Mania team where we get boxed out at TE while trying to chase a rookie at each position. Next up, Rotoworld's Lawrence Jackson returns to battle the wheel and dish on some info from Giants training camp.
He fiddled while Rome burned. He married two men. He may even have kicked his pregnant wife to death.But he ALSO invented animal pelt kink, so could he have been THAT BAD?!This week, Bash is joined by classicist and queer historian, Professor Andrew Lear, to discuss the scandalous, salacious, and slanderous life of Emperor Nero — Ancient Rome's most notorious bisexual bad boy.From castrating (and marrying) his wife's male doppelgänger to "mauling" strangers' crotches in animal pelts, the stories about Nero are a masterclass in ancient PR. But why did so many historians vilify Nero in this intensely OTT way?Join us as we explore the answer to this question and many more, such as:How did Nero's mother orchestrate his rise to power – and DID he murder her via collapsible boat?Did Nero really get gay married? Twice?!What did Roman “homosexuality” actually look like at the time — and why was being a bottom “not the Roman thing to do” (IYKYK)?Along the way, we'll learn why the real scandal for the raunchy Romans wasn't so much Nero's queer behaviour, but his dangerous subversion of class and gender hierarchy.Plus: Justice For Roman Bottoms (my new charity), ancient pegging theories, and a verdict on the real question on everyone's lips for the past two thousand years:Was Nero a monster… or the "Elvis Presley Emperor" of the 1st century AD?

In November 2022, four University of Idaho students—Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen, and Kaylee Goncalves—were found brutally murdered in an off-campus house in Moscow, Idaho. The suspect, Bryan Kohberger, was arrested in late December 2022.Key evidence in the case includes DNA found on a knife sheath left at the crime scene, which matched DNA from Kohberger's family's trash in Pennsylvania. Surveillance footage traced a white Hyundai Elantra, owned by Kohberger, near the crime scene around the time of the murders. Additionally, cell phone records showed Kohberger's phone was near the victims' residence on multiple occasions prior to the murders, though it was turned off during the time the murders occurred.Kohberger, a criminology Ph.D. student at Washington State University, exhibited an interest in criminal psychology and crime scene analysis. He has pleaded not guilty and his defense suggests he was out driving at the time of the murders.Now, after the relase of a book detailing the murders by author Howard Blum, the Gocalves family is bashing that book and saying it's a work of fiction.In our second article, we get an update on what we might expect today at Bryan Kohberger's hearing.(commercial at 8:07)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bryan Kohberger Book Slammed By Victim's Family - NewsweekBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Just Shoot It: A Podcast about Filmmaking, Screenwriting and Directing
Jamaal Parham, part of the directing duo Jams and Bash, talks to Oren and Matt about how they approach their business without the cheesiness. From a start working exclusively with Broadway productions, they've become a CAA-recognized brand in sports comedy.Matt discusses how the dream of never looking at a spreadsheet isn't realistic in filmmaking, or at least not in building a career in it. And Jamaal shares secrets on how they connect with decision-makers through targeted social media strategies that go beyond traditional PR, advertising, or social thinking.**Key lesson:** A lot of directing is really hosting.

Episode 25 is all about one of wrestling's most legendary factions — The Four Horsemen. Keith and Shawn each bring their own Horsemen-related hot take to the table! Shit-Take #1 (Shawn): "In 1988, Barry Windham should have taken over leadership of the Four Horsemen from Ric Flair." This take suggests that after turning heel and joining the Horsemen, Barry Windham was ready to step into the leadership role and allow Ric Flair to move into a different space within the faction. The argument centers on Windham's in-ring presence, athletic prime, and potential to lead the group into its next chapter while maintaining its elite status. Shit-Take #2 (Keith): "Curt Hennig's heel turn on the Horsemen in 1997 was a bigger deal than Hulk Hogan joining the NWO." This take ranks Hennig's betrayal of the Horsemen at Fall Brawl ‘97 above Hogan's heel turn at Bash at the Beach ‘96 in terms of shock value and emotional impact. It positions the moment as the true symbolic end of the Horsemen era and a devastating blow to traditionalist fans, arguing that it carried more weight within the context of wrestling history than Hogan's shift to the NWO.

Today we are digging a little deeper into good piece of "beef" that Steve got for the "submit your beef" call he put out: How do your measure success in an indie game? I summarized the whole submission here - but there are a LOT of games out there, and there seems to be no end to it. Which ones are winners and which ones are losers, and does it even really matter at all? On top of that Gage went to Chicago to a sick little gig in a cemetery and gives us the play-by-play.

Leonardo da Vinci? More like Leonardo da Fist Me.We've all heard of the man behind the Mona Lisa. But did you know he was also one of Florence's sodomitical sweethearts?In this episode, we pull back the vajazzled curtain on Leonardo da Vinci to reveal a homo neither tormented nor repressed, suffering dramatically for his art, but a messy, charismatic, and brilliant dilettante obsessed with the world.More than anything, Leonardo cared about curiosity. He was fascinated more by the world than his paychecks, which got him into trouble more often than his penchant for very handsome twinks – ahem, sorry, apprentices.*Join Bash and Renaissance historian Catherine Fletcher as they answer all the big questions:Was Leonardo gay? Does it matter? Did it affect his fantastically innovative artwork? Did he think outside the box? And whose box did he eat?We'll also give you a taste of what it was like to be horny, humping Leo in 1470s Florence, dashing across the Ponte Vecchio from paint job to blow job in an Italian minute (aka seventeen hours).We'll cover:Leonardo's arrest at age 24 for...sodomyHow the city responded to its "epidemic" of...sodomyLeonardo's lifelong entanglement with his apprentice/lover/twink-goblin, SalaiThe saga of Michelangelo vs. Leonardo, who were briefly Florence's duelling divas of the dayWhy Leonardo's refusal to care — about his sexuality or finishing any of his damn paintings — is actually the gayest and most important thing about himIf you've ever wanted a crash course in the gayest corners of the Italian Renaissance — or just an excuse to say “I heard you're into the Florentine vice” out loud — this is the episode for you.

What Makes Foam Parties So Popular? Foam parties aren't just a passing trend—they're a sensory, social, and safe way for kids (and adults!) to let loose. Kori notes that the laughter and joy are infectious, and the novelty never seems to wear off. Why Foam Parties Work: Universal appeal:** Kids of all ages love the tactile, immersive experience. Repeat business:** Many families and organizations book Bubble Bash year after year. Social media gold:** The visual spectacle makes for shareable, memorable photos. Pro Tip: Capture candid moments and share them with your guests. Kori sends photos to families after events, creating lasting memories and organic marketing. 3. Behind the Scenes: How Bubble Bash Operates Running a foam party business is more than just turning on a machine. Kori's approach is professional, efficient, and community-focused. Logistics and Equipment Foam Cannons:** Kori owns two, allowing her to serve multiple events or larger crowds. Setup Needs:** Access to water and electricity is essential. Coordination with venues is key. Duration:** Most parties last about an hour—enough for high-energy fun, then a smooth transition to food or rest. Weather:** Rain doesn't stop the party; kids are already getting wet! Environmental and Safety Considerations Hypoallergenic Foam:** Safe for kids, pets, and lawns. Grass Care:** Kori rotates the foam area to prevent lawn damage. Clean-Up:** The foam dissipates naturally, leaving no mess behind. Actionable Advice: Always do a site check before the event to ensure access to utilities. Communicate clearly with hosts about what's needed for setup and teardown. Invest in quality, safe foam solutions from reputable suppliers. 4. Safety First: Creating a Fun and Secure Environment Safety is at the heart of every Bubble Bash event. Kori's background as a teacher shines through in her clear, consistent rules and her ability to manage groups of excited kids. Core Safety Rules No running or sliding:** Prevents slips and falls. No diving or cannonballing:** The foam isn't deep—remind kids it's not a pool! No sitting under the foam:** Ensures visibility and prevents accidental bumps. Implementation Rules Stand:** Kori sets up a visible sign at public events. Active Supervision:** She keeps a close eye on the crowd and gently reminds kids as needed. Inclusive Fun:** Even grandparents have joined in—one memorable guest navigated the foam with her walker! Expert Insight: Safety doesn't have to kill the fun. Set expectations early, use positive language, and model the behavior you want to see. 5. Building Community: The Power of Local Networks Bubble Bash's success is rooted in community connections. Kori leverages local mom groups, Facebook communities, and word-of-mouth to grow her business. Strategies for Community Engagement Join local groups:** Participate in online forums and neighborhood networks. Collaborate, don't compete:** Kori often refers clients to other foam party businesses when she's booked, fostering goodwill. Support local events:** Bubble Bash is a fixture at Grayslake's Battle of the Bands, summer kickoffs, and more. Pro Tip: Don't underestimate the power of grassroots marketing. Authentic relationships and community involvement build trust and loyalty. 6. Expanding the Fun: Beyond Kids' Parties While Bubble Bash is best known for children's events, Kori is open to new markets. Adult and Teen Events Glow-in-the-dark foam:** Black lights and colored foam create a nightclub vibe. College and community events:** There's untapped potential for older audiences. Rebranding:** Kori is considering a separate identity to appeal to non-kid markets. Actionable Advice: Survey your audience to gauge interest in new offerings. Experiment with themed events (e.g., “Foam Olympics” fundraisers). Adjust your branding and messaging to match the target demographic. 7. Lessons in Entrepreneurship: Balancing Family, Passion, and Business Kori's journey is a testament to the power of reinvention. After 20 years as a teacher, she pivoted to entrepreneurship during the pandemic, seeking flexibility and joy. Key Lessons Follow your happiness:** Don't let fear of judgment hold you back. Seasonal balance:** Bubble Bash is full-time from May to October, allowing Kori to “hibernate” and recharge in the off-season. Family first:** Kori proudly identifies as a mom above all, structuring her business around her children's needs. Expert Insight: Entrepreneurship is about designing a life that fits your values. Don't be afraid to pivot, and keep your options open for future opportunities. 8. Actionable Tips for Hosting a Memorable Foam or Bubble Party Ready to bring the Bubble Bash experience to your next event? Here's how to make it unforgettable: Planning and Preparation Book early:** Summer weekends fill up fast. Choose the right location:** Flat, grassy areas work best; ensure access to water and power. Communicate with your host:** Share setup needs and safety rules in advance. During the Event Set clear rules:** Post them visibly and review with guests. Capture the moment:** Take candid photos and share them with families. Rotate the foam area:** Protect your lawn and keep the fun moving. After the Party Share your experience:** Post photos on social media and tag Bubble Bash. Give feedback:** Let Kori know what worked and what could be improved. Spread the word:** Word-of-mouth is the best marketing! 9. The Heart of Grayslake: Kindness, Connection, and Community At the end of our conversation, I shared a reminder that resonates with the spirit of Grayslake: you never know what someone else is going through. A simple act of kindness—a smile, a compliment, holding the door—can make all the difference. Let's keep Grayslake a place where: Neighbors support neighbors. Local businesses lift each other up. Every child (and adult!) gets a chance to play, laugh, and belong. 10. How to Book Your Own Bubble Bash Experience Ready to add some bubbly fun to your next event?
