Podcasts about Better Man

Better Man, el anti rockumental. Un análisis desde la psiquiatría Cuando el director Michael Gracey y el cantautor Robbie Williams cruzaron ideas para generar Better Man, nunca imaginaron que estaban a punto de entregarle al mundo uno de los mejores rockumentales de la historia. Pero menos pensaron que la película, llena de cualidades que el cine contemporáneo no ejecuta más, era también un ejercicio de reconocimiento de los demonios de Robbie Williams y que, desde la perspectiva de la exploración de sus sentimientos, iba a entregar un discurso que nada tiene que ver con la ya muy manida historia del rockero, su ascenso, su caída y resurrección. Desde la difícil relación con su padre, la exploración de las capacidades de Williams y la mirada crítica al mundo que le tocó vivir, Better Man es más de Shakespeare y de la psiquiatría, que del drama convencional de superación personal. Así que, para este episodio del podcast Cinegarage, vale mucho la pena explorarla al lado de nuestro doctor psiquiatra de extrema confianza, Rafa López, experto en el tema, mandamás del podcast Supracortical y amigo de Cinegarage. Vamos a revisar como nadie a Better Man, a Robbie Williams y, de paso, a nosotros mismos. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Who else could pull off the animal transformation of one of the world's biggest rockstars but Wētā FX? Wētā is well known for its visual effects mastery, and so when Robbie Williams said “make me an ape!”, it's only natural that they were the ones for the job. The man responsible for Williams' simian visage in Better Man was Visual Effects Supervisor Luke Millar, who was nominated for an Oscar for his work. A visual effects supervisor is responsible for coordinating all the different elements that comprise the visual effects of a production – most of which is invisible in many movies. He told Jack Tame it's about balance – everyone always wants more for less, and so being creative and efficient is the name of the game. When it comes to Better Man, Millar got involved after working on the pre-visualisation work for the musical sequences before shooting began. “After seeing a couple of those sequences, I read the script, and that was me,” he said. “I was all in at that point to, to want to take on the challenge.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

En esta nueva temporada de Los Diarios Existenciales nos sumergimos en documentales y biopics de artistas y deportistas para reflexionar, desde lo humano, sobre un tema urgente y necesario: la salud mental masculina.Iniciamos con la historia del icónico cantante británico Robbie Williams, cuya vida artística estuvo marcada por el éxito, la exposición mediática y, a la vez, por una lucha constante con sentimientos de insuficiencia, adicciones y episodios de depresión.A través de su historia, abrimos una conversación sobre lo que significa ser hombre y vulnerable, sobre las presiones del rendimiento, el silencio emocional y la necesidad urgente de espacios donde hablar sea posible.Esperamos que esta temporada se convierta en una invitación a mirar distinto, a sentir con más libertad y a entender que hablar de salud mental también es un acto de valentía.

Inget finbesök den här veckan, bara en vanlig tremannapanel. Mats, Niklas och Jonas ses den här gången i studion, och börjar som alltid med ett nyhetsblock - även om det märks att det är lite nyhetstorka så här i början av sommaren. Därefter kastar vi oss raskt in i filmens underbara värld, och Niklas berättar om Robbie Williams' apfilm Better Man samt den enormt omtalade Sinners. Mats har tillbringat veckan med att spela lite spel - eller kanske inte så lite. Först berättar han om sina äventyr i Dune: Awakenings vidsträckta öknar och därefter kommer en sällsynt icke-säl: MindsEye, som fått en hel del hat på nätet, kanske inte helt obefogat? Och till slut går han igenom några favoriter från Steams senaste tematiska rea, Fishing Fest, som bjuder på rabatter på några av de bästa (och kanske några av de sämsta) fiskespel som någonsin gjorts. Och här tänjer man kanske på undergenren lite, men det finns MÅNGA att välja mellan. Tack & Förlåt, Puss Hej!

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Three legendary figures reveal how fatherhood and family transformed their relationship with success and purpose. Matthew McConaughey shares the moment his relationship with Camila gave him courage to turn down millions in romantic comedies, leading to his Oscar-winning transformation, while confessing he wrote down 10 life goals at age 21 - including winning an Oscar before he was even acting. Kobe Bryant opens up about learning fundamentals after scoring zero points an entire summer at age 11, then using psychological warfare to elevate teammates and dominate opponents. Terry Crews delivers the most vulnerable story, describing his 30-year journey from an abused child in Flint to beating up his father at age 30, only to discover revenge solved nothing. Each man discovered that true strength comes not from individual dominance, but from the courage to serve something greater than themselves - whether through committed relationships, team excellence, or breaking generational cycles.Matthew's book GreenlightsMatthew's kids book Just BecauseKobe Bryant Dear BasketballTerry's book Manhood: How to Be a Better Man-or Just Live with OneTerry's audiobook Tough: My Journey to True PowerTerry's kids book Terry's CrewIn this episode you will learn:How writing down your goals creates an invisible contract with your subconscious that works for decadesWhy the fundamentals beat natural talent when you commit to daily practice over yearsHow committed relationships give you more courage and creativity in your career, not lessThe psychology behind using work ethic as a weapon to mentally break down competitionWhy revenge fantasies destroy your soul even when you get the payback you wantedFor more information go to https://www.lewishowes.com/1784For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Matthew McConaughey – greatness.lnk.to/1422SCKobe Bryant  – greatness.lnk.to/691SCTerry Crews – greatness.lnk.to/1258SC Get more from Lewis!

One of last year's most puzzling releases came in the form of a musical biopic chronicling the rise to fame of British pop star Robbie Williams. While following all the usual biopic tropes, this film made one rather noticeable swerve by portraying its star and subject as an anthropomorphic CGI chimpanzee. With Williams providing the narration and singing and Jonno Davies providing the voice and motion capture, the film, directed by The Greatest Showman's Michael Gracey, never acknowledges this species-bending premise while playing it straight. Despite Robbie Williams' mega-stardom in the UK, audiences didn't swing into theaters to see it there, or in the States where he's far less well known: the $110 million dollar flick only brought in $22.5 million at the box office. Critics, however, were mostly kind to the film, which received a record-breaking 16 nominations at the 2025 Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards, winning in nine categories, including Best Film. But will our hosts see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil? Or does Better Man deserve worse?    For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''. Please subscribe and give us a positive review.

When you explore the music of The Yardbirds you are really observing the evolution of what would become hard rock.  This group started in 1963 and over its time would engage the talents of three of the greatest guitarists of the rock world:  Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page.  Additional musicians in the group through 1968 were Keith Relf on vocals and harmonica, Jim McCarty on drums, Chris Dreja on rhythm guitar, and Paul Samwell-Smith on bass.  The group was founded in the blues, but over time would explore psychedelic rock, pop rock, and hard rock, with instrumental jams being a signature sound throughout their tenure.Having a Rave Up, also known as "Having a Rave Up with the Yardbirds," is their second American album, and showcases two of their virtuoso guitarists.  The album has one side of studio recordings in which Jeff Beck is the guitarist.  Side two is a compilation of live performances featuring Eric Clapton on guitar.  During a time when most songs were expected to run about three minutes, the Yardbirds would extend these out in live performances to six or seven minutes with instrumental jams known as "rave ups."  The combination of studio and live work is an excellent introduction to The Yardbirds, as the band's strength was in their live performances.  Their studio efforts would improve with the experimentation of Jeff Beck.Jimmy Page would become their guitarist in mid-1966 until their split-up in mid-1968.  He would form a group as "The New Yardbirds" shortly thereafter, which would be renamed shortly thereafter to Led Zeppelin.Rob brings us this study in the origins of rock for this week's podcast. Heart Full of SoulThis song was the first single released by The Yardbirds after Jeff Beck joined the group.  It was written by Graham Gouldman, who would later be the co-lead singer and bassist of 10cc.  The band wanted to include a sitar in the instrumentation for this song, but when things didn't work out for that, Beck experimented with his guitar to duplicate the eastern sound of the sitar instead.You're a Better Man than IThe opening song from the album is also known as "Mister, You're a Better Man than I."  It was written by brothers Mike and Brian Hugg, and is an attempt at a more folk rock song.  The socially conscious lyrics take aim at the hypocrisy of society and politics, stating that you shouldn't judge a person based on superficial appearances or education.Smokestack LightningThe live opener to side two is a cover of an old blues song recorded by American blues artist Howlin' Wolf in 1956.  The inspiration for the title came from watching trains go by at night and seeing the sparks come out of the smokestack.The Train Kept a-Rollin'While Aerosmith's cover may be more famous, this jump blues piece was originally performed by Tiny Bradshaw in 1951.  The Yardbirds played this song during their first American tour in 1965, and Sam Phillips recorded it for them in Memphis later that year.  It closes out side 1 of the album. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Main theme from the television action comedy "Batman"This campy superhero show premiered this month. STAFF PICKS:Don't Think Twice, It's Alright by The Wonder Who?Bruce begins the staff picks with a disguise group.  The Four Seasons used the name "The Wonder Who?" for four records released from 1965 to 1967, including this one.  Frankie Valli wasn't happy with his vocals on this song, and he recorded it with a "joke" falsetto voice while trying to break the tension in the studio.  All Your Love by John Mayall & the BluesbreakersLynch brings us a blues song originally recorded by American blues musician Otis Rush in 1958.  Multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter John Mayall led this group, which included Eric Clapton on guitar and John McVie on bass.  This single is the lead-off track to the debut album "Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton," also known as "The Beano Album" because Clapton is reading a children's comic called "The Beano" on the front cover.My Generation by the WhoWayne's staff pick is the hit that started the trajectory for the Who.  Guitarist Pete Townshend wrote this song about young rebellion.  Roger Daltrey incorporates a stutter in his vocals to sound like a British mod on speed.  While this song would reach number 2 on the UK charts, it topped out at number 74 on the US charts.Day Tripper by the BeatlesRob features a well known song from the Beatles, recorded during the "Rubber Soul" album sessions but not included on the album itself.  It was released as a double A-side single along with "We Can Work it Out" during a time when the Beatles were under pressure to release a single in time for the 1965 Christmas season.   COMEDY TRACK:The Lurch by Ted CassidyTed Cassidy played Lurch on "The Addams Family," and also performed this novelty song.   Thanks for listening to “What the Riff?!?” NOTE: To adjust the loudness of the music or voices, you may adjust the balance on your device.

Matt and Lucy (Robbie Williams Rewind) join Nick to discuss the Michael Gracey-directed music biopic Better Man and all things Robbie Williams!Send us a text

With the 2025 tour up and running, we're heading to our next destination - the home of the Braves in Atlanta, Georgia that hasn't seen a Pearl Jam show in nearly 13 years. This episode will cover the last time that they played in the Phillips (now State Farm) Arena back in 2000 that they will be returning to this week. We'll talk a little bit about the history of Atlanta shows that of course will mostly include one of the greatest Pearl Jam shows of all time in 1994. This show was given the distinction of being an Ape/Man show, which means it was one of a few handpicked shows that the band recommended that fans give a chance to when the official bootlegs were all released in stores. A lot of our conversations will be us trying to determine if they made the right decision selecting this show. There are definitely performances that stand out. For Crazy Mary, it was the first time that they ever passed a bottle of wine around during the jam. It's also the first appearance of the Romanza intro for Better Man that got played for the majority of 2000. We'll also dig deep on Binaural era tracks Nothing As It Seems, Breakerfall and Rival that we almost never get to talk about. Find out if we think that this one was worthy of the Ape/Man tag. Also to note, this episode was recorded prior to the start of the tour, so if you're looking for in depth analysis, head on over to our Patreon to check out the instant reaction episodes for both Hollywood, Florida shows!
