On this episode of Critics at Large, with the ninety-eighth Academy Awards just around the corner, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz are joined by their fellow staff writer Michael Schulman to take stock of Oscars season. They discuss the biggest races and consider whether the year's Best Picture nominees—many of them both critical and commercial successes—might represent a return to the bygone era of “grownup movies.” At the center of all this pageantry is the host: a notoriously tricky role for even the most seasoned performers. Together, the critics revisit the highs and lows of Oscars hosting history, from the long tenure of Bob Hope to the golden age of Billy Crystal. These m.c.s' success hinges on their ability to walk a fine line, embodying the celebratory spirit of the evening while also poking fun at its absurdity. “It's about that insider-outsider aspect. You are the court jester,” Schwartz says. “Are you really wanting to be vizier to the king, or are you O.K. in that jester role?”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Oscar Wars,” by Michael Schulman“Marty Supreme” (2025)“Sinners (2025)“The Secret Agent” (2025)“One Battle After Another” (2025)“‘Come to Brazil?'

You may have seen Stephnie (not a typo, she spells it that way) Weir as a cast member on Mad TV or in appearances on Modern Family, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, and Lady Dynamite. But if you live near Stephnie or happen to be a close friend or colleague, you may also know her from the handmade holiday napkins she distributes to her inner circle. She methodically walks us through the steps of gathering supplies and creating these gifts. She also admits to occasionally checking in on the recipients to see whether the napkins are part of their lives or have mysteriously vanished. When Stephnie had occasion to work with Billy Crystal, she wanted to make him some very special New York Yankees napkins, since that's his favorite team. It did not go smoothly and you'll drift off to sleep imagining a politely perplexed Billy Crystal. Follow Stephnie Weir on Instagram @stephnieweirofficial.

Analyze This was the 18th-highest grossing movie of 1999, opening on at #1 March 5th – the same day as Cruel Intentions, which opened number 2 - and taking in $177 million worldwide on an $80 million budget. Analyze This gave us the unlikely comedy duo of Billy Crystal and (a then new to comedy) Robert DeNiro, alongside Lisa Kudrow, Chazz Palminteri, and Joe Viterelli Directed by the late great Harold Ramis and written by Ramis, Peter Tolan, and, somewhat shockingly, Kenneth Lonergan, Analyze This made a lot of its then very novel premise of a gangster getting therapy...but also happened to be released a few months after the premiere of the The Sopranos. This week, we're rejoined by our friend, comedy writer Chase Mitchell. Chase is on the socials at @ChaseMit
The Not Ready for Prime Time Podcast: The Early Years of SNL
Marc Shaiman has won a Tony award, two Grammy awards, two Emmy awards, and has been nominated for seven Oscars. Unsurprisingly, after a career spanning over 50 years rubbing shoulders with the "who's who" of entertainment he is not at a loss for stories to share.In honor of his hilarious new memoir, Never Mind the Happy: Showbiz Stories From a Sore Winner, we talked with Marc about a brief, but pivotal, section early in his career – Saturday Night Live. Beginning as a freelance performer during the Dick Ebersol years, he began backing up cast members such as Julia Louis-Dreyfus and went on to form life-long friendships with the likes of Martin Short and Billy Crystal. When Lorne Michaels returned to the show, he was hired as a full-time writer and helped create one of the most iconic recurring characters of SNL's second Golden Era – The Sweeney Sisters.Marc talks about working on SNL with Jan Hooks, Phil Hartman, Maya Rudolph, Paul Shaffer, Steve Martin, and Mary Tyler Moore, as well as shares hilarious behind-the-scenes tales about Bill Murray, William Shatner, Paul McCartney, and Prince! He also tells the story of meeting, working, and living with Bette Midler (when he was only a teenager), discusses his decades-long relationship working with Rob Reiner, and reveals the most outrageous story from his book.We had such a blast talking Saturday Night Live with Marc, we didn't even get a chance to talk about:*Being one of the originators of the Rocky Horror Picture Show screenings*Producing songs with Mariah Carey and Harry Connick, Jr.*Backing up Bette Midler on Johnny Carson's final show*Writing songs for South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut*Creating Hairspray for BroadwayAll of which are in the book – which you can order HERE!Or the amazing audio book - HERE!Or...as Marc says (or sings) himself - GET BOTH!---------------------------------Subscribe & Follow today!

Harry and Daniel dive into the swashbuckling fairy tale classic The Princess Bride with filmmaker and special guest Michael Lukk Litwak, director of Molli and Max in the Future.Directed by Rob Reiner and written by legendary screenwriter William Goldman (adapting his own novel), The Princess Bride is a story of fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love—and, yes, miracles. But it's also something more: a distinctly Jewish-inflected fairy tale wrapped in the rhythms of a grandfather's bedtime story.Harry, Daniel, and Michael explore Goldman's wry, self-aware storytelling voice, Reiner's humanistic direction, and how the film balances sincerity and satire without ever winking too hard. They unpack Mandy Patinkin's unforgettable turn as Inigo Montoya, the comedic brilliance of Wallace Shawn and Billy Crystal, and the film's surprising emotional depth beneath all the quotable lines.Together, they ask: What makes this fairy tale feel so grounded? How does Jewish humor shape the film's tone? And why has The Princess Bride endured as a generational touchstone for audiences who can quote it line for line?As you wish… it's an episode about storytelling, myth-making, and why true love (and a good screenplay) conquers all.The Princess Bride TrailerThe Princess Bride in IMDBMichael's LinksFollow Michael on InstagramWatch Molli and Max in the FutureConnect with Jews on Film online:Jews on Film Merch - https://jews-on-film.printify.me/productsInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/jewsonfilm/Twitter - https://twitter.com/jewsonfilmpodYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@jewsonfilmTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@jewsonfilmpod

Chazz reflects on the different versions of A Bronx Tale—film, Broadway musical, and his one-man show—saying he began in comedy and recalling roles like Modern Family and Analyze This with Billy Crystal, as well as working with Robert De Niro. Sid promotes Palminteri's one-man A Bronx Tale and Palminteri announces performances on Sunday, February 22 at the Paramount Theater in Huntington and Saturday, February 28 at the St. George Theatre in Staten Island, emphasizing his message to young audience members about “wasted talent.” The conversation also covers Palminteri's restaurants in New York City (30 West 46th Street near the Theater District) and White Plains (264 Main Street), and his interest in opening in Las Vegas.

Laci and Matt dive deep into When Harry Met Sally (1989), one of the all-time great romantic comedies. In a movie that could easily be dismissed as a clone of Woody Allen's early rom-coms, the film makes its mark with two superstar lead performances from Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal, an electric script by Nora Ephron, and breezy, hilarious direction from Rob Reiner. We tell the story of how this movie came together, how it evolved during development, and how it became the classic we all know today. Then, your favorite husband-and-wife podcasting duo have a lengthy discussion about the movie itself, and folks, there are some heated battle-of-the-sexes arguments in this one. Because men do be like this, while women do be doing woman stuff, like makeup. Will they ever learn to get along???

This month on Late to the Party, we're finally sitting down with one of the most iconic romantic comedies of all time: When Harry Met Sally. From razor-sharp dialogue to endlessly quotable moments, this film has remained a pop culture staple for decades — but does it still hold up today? We break down the performances, the realism behind the friendship, and the moments that feel timeless… and the ones that feel a little more complicated in hindsight.• Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal's unforgettable chemistry and performances • Why the friendship between Harry and Sally feels so real and grounded • Sally as a surprisingly strong, confident character—especially for the era • How the film handles romance without forcing her to compromise what she wants • The pacing shift and how the ending feels a bit “speed run” once they hook up • The infamous diner scene, why it was controversial, and how it's aged over timeSynopsis: Sex always gets in the way of friendships between men and women. At least, that's what Harry Burns believes. So when Harry meets Sally Albright and a deep friendship blossoms between them, Harry's determined not to let his attraction to Sally destroy it. But when a night of weakness ends in a morning of panic, can the pair avoid succumbing to Harry's fears by remaining friends and admitting they just might be the perfect match for each other?

We decided to re-run an old “Pop Culturing” Podcast in honor of the tragic death of Rob Reiner and his wife Michele. We will be creating 4 new Zen Pop Episodes based off of 4 other Rob Reiner films for the month of January. When Harry Met Sally… is a 1989 American romantic comedy film written by Nora Ephron and directed by Rob Reiner. It stars Billy Crystal as Harry and Meg Ryan as Sally. The story follows the title characters from the time they meet in Chicago just before sharing a cross-country drive, through twelve years of chance encounters in New York City. The film raises the question “Can men and women ever just be friends?” and advances many ideas about relationships that became household concepts, such as “high-maintenance” and the “transitional person”.

This week Kate Sheppard and Thomas Lecaque drop in to talk about the greatest romcom of all time.About our guests:Dr. Kathleen Sheppard earned her PhD in History of Science from the University of Oklahoma in 2010. After a post-doctoral teaching fellowship at the American University in Cairo, she arrived at Missouri S&T in the fall of 2011. She teaches mainly survey courses on modern Western Civilizations, which is arguably one of the most important courses students in 21st century America can take. Her main focus is on the history of science from the ancient Near East to present day Europe, United States, and Latin America. She has taught courses on the history of European science and Latin American science, as well as a seminar on women in the history of science.Sheppard's research focuses on 19th and 20th century Egyptology and women in the field. Her first book was a scientific biography of Margaret Alice Murray, the first woman to become a university-trained Egyptologist in Britain (Lexington, 2013). Murray's career spanned 70 years and over 40 publications. Sheppard is also the editor of a collection of letters between Caroline Ransom Williams, the first university-trained American Egyptologist, and James Breasted from the University of Chicago (Archaeopress, 2018). Sheppard's monograph, Tea on the Terrace, is about hotels in Egypt as sites of knowledge creation in Egyptology during the discipline's “Golden Age,” around 1880 to 1930.Women in the Valley of the Kings: The Untold Story of Women Egyptologists in the Gilded Age was published in July 2024. It has been reviewed in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and was a top 6 Reader's Choice non-fiction book on Goodreads.Thomas Lecaque is an associate professor of History at Grand View University in Des Moines, Iowa. He specializes in the nexus of apocalyptic religion and political violence. He has written for the Washington Post, Religion Dispatches, Foreign Policy and The Bulwark, among others.
This episode originally aired on June 7, 2022. Two-time Emmy Award-winner Bruce Vilanch has written jokes for Bob Hope, Lily Tomlin, Barbra Streisand, Bette Midler, Billy Crystal, Whoopi Goldberg and virtually every Hollywood star to grace the Academy Awards stage from 1989 – 2014. As one of the entertainment industry's most sought-after joke writers, the actor, comedian and songwriter was perhaps best-known to audiences for his work behind-the-scenes at the Oscars, supplying one-liners to hosts and presenters. (Oscar-watchers are still talking about the year Jack Palance did push-ups on the stage, and the time Rob Lowe went rolling down the river with Snow White – two moments that left Bruce and his fellow writers scrambling backstage to help viewers make sense of it all.) Over the years, Bruce became a familiar face to television audiences, when he stepped from behind the curtain for a long-running stint as a celebrity panelist on "Hollywood Squares," where he also served as head writer. As such, he is uniquely positioned to offer note and comment on what it takes to craft topical material for some of our leading personalities – honing his own voice as a comedian and performer while honoring the voices of his famous clients. Bruce was the subject of the 1999 documentary "Get Bruce!", and he has played himself in the movies and on television, including a memorable turn in an episode of "The Simpsons." Join us for an outrageous discussion on Bruce's adventures (and, misadventures) in Hollywood, including the inside story behind one of the most notorious flops in the history of prime-time network television (1978's "'Star Wars' Holiday Special"), the infamous Friars Club roast that featured Ted Danson in blackface, and a cameo turn from Ira Gershwin who was brought in to rewrite the lyrics to a song called "Treat Me Rough" for Marie Osmond, in hopes of slipping the number past the Morman elders who handled censorship duties on the "Donny & Marie" variety show.

The segment explored the unique pressures faced by children of celebrities, with a particular focus on how sons often struggle under the weight of legacy, expectations, and public scrutiny. The conversation referenced Rob Reiner’s past openness about his son’s personal challenges, including a discussion with Sam Rubin in which Reiner spoke candidly about the difficulties his son faced growing up in the spotlight. Attention then turned to reports and allegations surrounding a devastating family tragedy involving the Reiners, which sent shockwaves through Hollywood. According to accounts discussed on air, close friends—including Billy Crystal and his wife—were among those who encountered the aftermath, underscoring how deeply the event affected the entertainment community. The program revisited prior public incidents that hinted at serious family strain, including a heated argument between Rob Reiner and his son at a Conan O’Brien holiday party that centered on concerns over substance abuse. The discussion noted that Nick Reiner had reportedly undergone numerous stints in rehabilitation, highlighting the long and painful battle many families face when addiction is involved. Clips from a past appearance by Rob and his son on The Howard Stern Show were referenced, where they spoke about collaborating on the film Being Charlie, a project that mirrored real-life struggles with addiction and recovery. The irony of art reflecting life was not lost on the hosts. As details continued to emerge through media reports, correspondents shared the latest developments, including accounts of who discovered the couple and where an arrest was said to have taken place. The segment closed with listener reactions, many expressing shock, grief, and empathy, while reflecting on the broader themes of mental illness, addiction, and the tragic consequences when those struggles go unchecked.

They dive into Justin Herbert’s toughness, Jalen Hurts’ nightmare game, and Phillip Rivers training for a possible comeback at 44.Then Shannon relives her now-legendary, extremely awkward Billy Crystal moment (“PeCaN Pie!”) and talks about the glamorous life of… getting rejected on the sidelines.From there it’s cosmic panic and courtroom drama: 3I/ATLAS is making its closest approach to Earth, Ghislaine Maxwell evidence is set to drop, and Australia is about to shut down social media for kids under 16 — sparking a global culture war over whether it’ll save children or just enrage them.Gary & Shannon wrap the hour with a new study linking endless scrolling to ADHD-like symptoms, and the uncomfortable truth that social media hasn’t made us more connected… just permanently reachable.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
