Podcast appearances and mentions of Bob Iger

What's the first question people at Disney ask themselves when they have a great idea? How does Bob Iger view his legacy, and does he think Walt Disney would approve of his record? How did Bob first get into The Rest Is History? And who is his dream dinner party guest from history? Watch Tom and Dominic's tour of Disneyland with Bob: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwPaOpifZ-M In this special bonus episode, Tom and Dominic are joined by Friend of the Show Bob Iger, the CEO of The Walt Disney Company.

THE HUNT FOR BEN SOLO... The title might not be great, but the potential of this cancelled film is certainly thrilling. Recently, news broke that Adam Driver and Steven Soderbergh had been working on a script for a post-Episode IX Ben Solo film. Not only that but it seemed that the folks at Lucasfilm liked the concept, and a full script was completed with the intention of moving forward with the film, only for Disney CEO Bob Iger to kill the film since he couldn't understand how Ben Solo would be alive. Today we discuss this news and wonder about the possibilities continuing Ben's story has, especially after a disappointing end for his character in The Rise Of Skywalker, and potential connections to Daisy Ridley's upcoming New Jedi Order film. What could have been...?• • •TRIAD Of The FORCE is a STAR WARS+ podcast hosted by Gus, Nani, & Chase—Puerto Rican and queer creators sharing deep dives, and heartfelt conversations from a galaxy far, far away.

It's been a hell of a week for Ben Solo fans. In a recent AP interview, our fav Adam Driver dropped an atomic bomb on the Star Wars fandom: he had been secretly working on a Ben Solo movie for two years. Titled The Hunt for Ben Solo, it took place after The Rise of Skywalker and would have explored the mystery of what might have happened to Ben after he disappeared into the Force. The worst part? Disney execs Bob Iger and Alan Bergman had said no. In this episode we take break down the drama, including our theories for why Adam released this information now, plus the amazing efforts that Star Wars fans are going to try and get this movie made. Do you think a Ben Solo movie was a good idea? Are you also sticking pins in a Bob Iger voodoo doll? Find us on social media and let us know!

YOLO SOLO. Somehow, Kylo Ren didn't return, and Star Wars fans are aiming one very pointed finger at Disney chief Bob Iger. Yes… that finger.

Hablamos de la inevitable venta de Warner Bros., probablemente a David Ellison, y de cómo es 100% seguro que algo que no restaurará es el ortoverso; y en dudosas decisiones artísticas, Bob Iger canceló una potencial película de Kylo Ren que Adam Driver junto con Steven Soderbergh estaban desarrollando. Luego hablamos de algunos de los […]

In Nerd Culture #231 duiken we diep in de galaxy far, far away, letterlijk én figuurlijk. Adam Driver onthult dat hij samen met Steven Soderbergh een Kylo Ren-film pitchte die door Disney werd afgewezen, terwijl Jim Carrey bijna de rol van Jack Sparrow speelde in Pirates of the Caribbean. Daarnaast bespreken we de toekomst van Star Wars (inclusief een on hold gezette Rey-film en Finchers bijna-project), de komst van een Horizon Zero Dawn-film in 2027, en het bizarre nieuws dat Netflix, Amazon en Apple interesse hebben om Warner Bros over te nemen.Verder checken we nieuwe trailers van Devil in Disguise, Predator: Badlands en Pluribus, plus een crossover tussen Transformers en G.I. Joe. En ja — er zijn zelfs SpongeBob-sneakers. Het wordt weer een aflevering vol filmnieuws, nostalgie, en een flinke dosis nerdy verwondering.Disney wees The Hunt for Ben Solo afIn een alternatieve galaxy far, far away hadden we misschien een Star Wars-film gekregen van Adam Driver en Steven Soderbergh. In een interview met AP onthulde Driver dat hij samen met Soderbergh en scenarist Scott Z. Burns twee jaar werkte aan een script getiteld The Hunt for Ben Solo. De film zou zich afspelen na The Rise of Skywalker en draaien om Ben Solo's zoektocht naar verlossing.Lucasfilm zou enthousiast zijn geweest over het plan, maar Disney trok uiteindelijk de stekker eruit. Volgens Driver zagen Bob Iger en Alan Bergman “niet hoe Ben Solo nog kon leven.” Een gemiste kans, want volgens de acteur was het “één van de vetste scripts” waar hij ooit aan meewerkte. In de podcast bespreken we waarom juist dit project fans had kunnen verzoenen met de sequel-trilogie — en of Disney te bang is geworden om risico's te nemen met Star Wars.Jim Carrey als Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean?Voordat Johnny Depp zijn iconische rol als Captain Jack Sparrow kreeg, was niemand minder dan Jim Carrey in beeld voor Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. Producent Jerry Bruckheimer en regisseur Gore Verbinski zagen in hem de perfecte mix van humor en charisma om Disney's nieuwe piratenfilm te dragen. In de vroege jaren 2000 was Carrey immers een gegarandeerde box office-hit.Maar Carrey sloeg het aanbod af om te werken aan Bruce Almighty, wat uiteindelijk ook een enorm succes werd. Volgens insiders zou zijn versie van Jack Sparrow een meer cartooneske, over-the-top piratenheld zijn geweest — meer Bugs Bunny dan Keith Richards. Uiteindelijk koos Disney voor Johnny Depp, wiens excentrieke interpretatie de film naar miljardenstatus katapulteerde. In de podcast bespreken we hoe anders Pirates of the Caribbean eruit had gezien met Jim Carrey aan het roer… en of dat misschien beter was geweest.Timestamps:00:00:00 Nerd Culture #23100:00:14 Kunst van een kijker00:03:40 Volgende Nerd Culture Watchparty00:05:45 Wat hebben we gekeken/gelezen/geluisterd?00:07:00 Splinter Cell00:10:37 IT: Chapter One00:18:01 Gen V00:21:12 9-1-1: Nashville (helaas nog niet)00:24:12 Devil in Disguise Trailer00:27:34 Horizon Zero Dawn-film komt in 202700:35:48 Jim Carrey bijna Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean00:42:01 Netflix, Amazon & Apple azen op Warner Bros00:48:35 Adam Driver's afgewezen Kylo Ren-film00:52:48 David Fincher's geannuleerde Star Wars-project00:54:50 Rey-film tijdelijk on hold00:56:00 Winstgevendheid Star Wars eindelijk onthuld00:59:28 Predator: Badlands Trailer01:02:27 Transformers X G.I.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 27: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Today is the dawn of Trump’s new policy: destroy America. Literally. Well, destroy part of the WHITE HOUSE – Literally. And steal $230 million from the government and pretend he’s going to give it to charity; AND give away 172 million dollars for two private jets for Kristi Noem; AND give Ukraine and eventually Europe to Putin, AND make America a one-party nation, AND get elected Democrats killed, AND destroy America. Literally. Well, ok, describing this as Trump’s new policy to destroy, steal, give away AND get elected Democrats killed - that’s not ENTIRELY fair. Because it’s not really NEW. He has long tried to stochastically encourage violence against opponents, but now key minions like Tom Emmer and Tom Homan talk about the quote “terrorist wing” of the Democratic party, and, Presto! A January 6th traitor Trump personally pardoned tries to assassinate Democratic House Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Looks like cause and effect to me. Josh Marshall just invoked imagery I used in 2016 and he’s right: Trump has entered (actually RE-entered) the stage in which he is the omnipotent petulant child, Anthony, from the terrifying Twilight Zone episode “It’s A Good Life" who could destroy the world and kill people just by thinking it. Josh is right. I was right. Trump is now destroying just because it gives him something to do. And because in his psychosis it no longer matters whether he's constructing or deconstructing, it only matters that HE does it. ALSO: The Democrats can stop self-flagellating. Party identification has now swung back away from the Republicans and the seven-point margin is nearly as big as the Dems' was in 2012. So let's focus instead on taking out the trash like Graham Platner. For 17 years or so, the populist Maine Democrat somehow didn't know that was a nazi tattoo on his chest, which I suppose is possible. But when it was going to come out, instead of going right to a tattoo parlor and holding a news conference explaining and apologizing as they turned it into something else, he released a drunken video and waited three days to (supposedly) actually fix the problem. He has no judgment. None. Get out. B-Block (33:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Doing the right thing for the wrong reason. Bob Iger and Disney didn't walk back the Jimmy Kimmel firing because of justice and the 1st Amendment. They did it because of a boycott. The Andrew Cuomo self-destruction tour continues as he confuses the New York Jets and the New York Mets. And The Washington Post columnist who said we'd be fine whether Hillary or Trump was elected is back with more stupidity. C-Block (49:12) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: This time of year, 51 years ago, I was about to sign up to go to Boston University when a radio student there gave me the inside story of the limitations undergrads faced. He talked me out of it. I was 15 and he was 20 and his name was Howard Stern.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mia Goth is the latest actor shedding a bit of light on the long-shelved Blade movie from Marvel Studios. In an interview with Elle, promoting her upcoming appearance in Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, Goth shared only that she is still attached to the film and commented that “It's for the best that it's taken the time it has. They want to do it right.” This is in line with Kevin Feige's comments this summer that the film is still moving forward.In an interview with the AP this week, Adam Driver dropped some major information about the Ben Solo movie in Star Wars that never was. Driver explained that Lucasfilm was interested in continuing his character's story in a film that had a script written by Steven Soderbergh. Driver was supportive of the script and the creative team took it to Bob Iger and Alan Bergman at Disney who turned the project down as they “didn't see how Ben Solo was alive.” Fan favorites Amber Midthunder and Walton Goggins will star in a new action movie from the creator of the John Wick franchise. The film, called Painter, has a major executive producer credit - with Avatar and Titanic director James Cameron serving in that role. Stunt coordinator Garrett Warren, who worked with Cameron on the last two Avatars as well as Logan and the Road House reboot, is directing the movie; a debut effort. The movie's plot will focus on Midthunder's character, trained as a child who must save her father after he is kidnapped.Lightning RoundKate McKinnon has joined the cast of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” Season 3 and will play Aphrodite.Jim Carrey is in talks to star in a live action film adaptation of The Jetsons from Warner Bros.

News just dropped about a BEN SOLO film developed by Adam Driver and Steven Soderbergh. Unfortunately for all of us, Disney CEO Bob Iger didn't allow it to be greenlit. We've been trying to talk about TRON for a while, so today we finally get to that (don't worry we'll get to Adam Driver and Ben Solo soon)!We're fans of TRON: Legacy, and we've been waiting for a sequel for a very long time. Now TRON: Ares has arrived. Starring Jared Leto, this film is a new story in the world of TRON more than a direct sequel. Jared Leto's involvement already had us worried about this one. Now that we've seen it we discuss it, but will we see eye to eye? • • •TRIAD Of The FORCE is a STAR WARS+ podcast hosted by Gus, Nani, & Chase—Puerto Rican and queer creators sharing deep dives, and heartfelt conversations from a galaxy far, far away.

In today's Daily Fix:Adam Driver has revealed there was a Kylo Ren movie he was attached to that was rejected by Disney. Academy Award winning director Steven Soderbergh was also involved, possibly to direct, and the script was co-written with Soderbergh's frequent collaborator, Scott Z. Burns. Although approved by Lucasfilm, Disney CEO Bob Iger rejected the pitch and the whole thing fell apart. In other news, Warner Bros. Discovery may be up for sale again. The company was previously acquired by ATT and then merged with Discovery Networks, and is now in the middle of spinning off some of its entertainment subsidiaries like HBO and DC into a separate company. And in related news, HBO Max is raising prices again.

Voor de banken die het cijferseizoen aftrapten was het een start om over naar huis te schrijven. Vorig kwartaal wisten ze monsterwinsten te halen uit hun investeringstakken, maar nu hebben ze een nieuwe inkomstenbron gevonden. Er werd voor meer dan 1 biljoen dollar aan deals gesloten afgelopen kwartaal. En die banken haalden daar een aardige zak geld uit. Tegelijkertijd geven ze wel een waarschuwing. Want alle gevaren die er een paar maanden geleden nog boven de markt hingen, die zijn er nog steeds. Wat betekent dat voor de rest van de kwartaalcijfers? Dat hoor je in deze aflevering. Eén set resultaten lijkt in ieder geval in orde te zijn. Samsung geeft alvast aan dat ze afgelopen kwartaal de grootste winst in drie jaar tijd maakten. Een opluchting, na zware jaren voor het bedrijf. En een opluchting die de Zuid-Koreanen te danken hebben aan een hernieuwd geloof in de geheugenchipmarkt. Die chips zijn essentieel voor AI, zo denken beleggers. En dat betekent: groene koersen. Verder hoor je nog het vervolg op het Nexperia-debacle. Het Nederlandse kabinet greep in bij de chipmaker omdat er tal van misstanden zouden rond de Chinese CEO. Nu blijkt uit rechtbankstukken dat de VS wel degelijk op die ingreep heeft aangestuurd, en komt ook naar buiten wat die misstanden dan allemaal zouden zijn geweest.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock unpacks Ryan Clark's uncertain future at ESPN, as the host has issued his third public apology in three months, this time for false statements he made on air about Kyren Lacy. Whitlock is joined by T.J. Moe and Steve Kim, who add their insights into the Clark controversy and the racial forces at work behind the scenes at Bob Iger's Disney, which owns ESPN. Whitlock and his panel also discuss the worst athletes turned broadcasters, Albert Breer questioning Bill Belichick's GOAT status, and Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show facing competition from a Christian alternative. Whitlock then offers his Fearless Five football picks of the week, and Coach J.B. joins the show to talk about Shedeur Sanders showing a new side of himself with some humility and smarts during a locker-room interview; Sanders' future in the NFL; and why the Philadelphia Eagles are so bad this year.

(October 01, 2025)Hollywood Performers Union condemns AI-generated actress Tilly Norwood. Cany WayMo get a ticket? Here's what happened when the police pulled one over. Disney's handling of Jimmy Kimmel debacle highlights big challenges for Bob Iger's successor.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesIt appears as though Marvel Studios much speculated film that was slated to release between Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars in July 2027, won't be happening after all; or at least not that July, as Disney has replaced the untitled project with a sequel to The Simpsons Movie dated for July 23, 2027. The move comes as a surprise to many Marvel fans who anticipated a possible Doctor Strange or Shang-Chi sequel to take place between the Avengers tentpoles but is in keeping with what Bob Iger and Kevin Feige have promised about a slowdown in production. Elsewhere, with Marvel Zombies premiering on Disney Plus last week, Marvel TV head Brad Winderbaum teased a possible season 2, but emphasized that would be contingent on viewership and new Disney Plus subscriptions. Meanwhile, Elizabeth Olsen took the opportunity to share that although she recorded lines for the series, she doesn't remember anything about the show or plot. It was a huge week for trailers from a bevy of our favorite franchises, so lets run them down with another good old fashioned Trailer Park:Insomniac and Sony released the first gameplay trailer for Marvel's Wolverine on the PS5, which will release in fall of 2026.Lucasfilm unveiled a new trailer for Star Wars; Visions Volume 3 which also announced the cast that includes Anna Sawai, Freddie Highmore, George Takei, Harvey Guillén, Jodie Turner-Smith, Judith Light, Simu Liu, Stephanie Hsu, and Steve Buscemi.The final trailer for Jon M. Chu's Wicked: For Good released last Wednesday morning to much acclaim.And finally, a new trailer for 20th Century's Avatar: Fire and Ash teased more of the villainous faction and stakes.Director Denis Villeneuve shed new light on his upcoming version of 007 for Amazon/MGM; sharing that the casting process will begin next year after he's completed production on Dune: Part Three for Warner Bros and that he is looking to cast a “relatively unknown” “fresh face” actor in their 20s or 30s. Additional criteria the filmmaker included is that the performer must hail from the British Isles and be male, as well as his desire to capture what Fleming called “a blunt instrument” — the lethal but “extremely dull, uninteresting man to whom things happened.” If Villeneuve and team stay true to these parameters, it potentially rules out many fan-casted favorites and seems to be in more alignment with the Broccoli family's traditions with the character than expected with new creatives in control.Mark Ronson is slated to reunite with Greta Gerwig to score her Chronicles of Narnia adaptation at Netflix. Ronson previously served as executive music producer for Gerwig's Barbie.Amazon MGM Studios‘ adaptation of Rebecca Yarros' bestselling novel Fourth Wing is closing in on a new showrunner. Wednesday Season 2 executive producer Meredith Averill is in final negotiations to board the project as writer and executive producer.Sony revealed that Spider-Man: Beyond the SpiderVerse will arrive a week earlier than expected, and land on June 18, 2027. Notably, that new date will cover the Juneteenth holiday as well as Father's Day. It previously was dated for June 25, 2027.Comedian Bill Burr is in talks to join the cast of Aaron Sorkin and Sony Pictures' sequel to The Social Network, after Jeremy Strong, Mikey Madison and Jeremy Allen White were officially cast. The film also has been retitled The Social Reckoning and will officially hit theaters on Oct. 9, 2026.A newly created AI “actress” named Tilly Norwood, designed by the studio Xicoia under Particle6, has reportedly drawn interest from Hollywood talent agencies. The announcement sparked major backlash from real actors, with critiques about replacing human talent, the ethics of compositing real faces, and calls to boycott agencies that represent AI personas.

Sources say Letitia James and James Comey are set to be indicted within the next 48 hours. Trish has all the details on this developing bombshell. PLUS—Jimmy Kimmel’s pathetic “non-apology” for his remarks on Charlie Kirk is blowing up in Disney’s face. With ABC affiliates furious, ESPN under fire, and CEO Bob Iger on the ropes, the left’s media empire is in crisis. And it gets worse: liberal rag Jezebel actually PAID witches to hex Charlie Kirk days before his assassination. Even Charlie’s widow, Erika, was disturbed by this grotesque stunt. Trish asks: what is wrong with the left? Meanwhile, Joy Reid is back with another desperate take—this time claiming Senator JD Vance only got into Yale because he’s from Appalachia. Vance’s fiery response is a must-see.

Jimmy Kimmel’s so-called “comeback” is already collapsing as more than 70 ABC affiliates REFUSE to air his show. Trish Regan exposes the chaos at Disney, the growing boycott, and why CEO Bob Iger may be in the fight of his career.

DISNEY is bringing Jimmy Kimmel BACK TO ABC! "Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!" Show To RESTART Tomorrow - But For How Long? Can Disney CEO Bob Iger survive the fallout as Disney boycott calls grow and the FCC pledges to launch an investigation into 'The View'?

Jimmy Kimmel returned to late-night with an emotional statement after backlash over his comments on Charlie Kirk's assassination. The PBD Podcast panel debates if it was a real apology, Bob Iger's Disney strategy, collapsing ratings, and why Gutfeld is dominating late-night.

A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: After perhaps the most hapless 96 hours of his presidency, the worst 96 hours of the worst presidency of ALL TIME, the most FAIL in the shortest span… the mentally-deteriorating, untethered-from-reality Trump… must RESIGN. And take his idiot sycophants with him. The last 96 hours: His U.N. speech, sounding like an escapee from a psych ward. His Tylenol news conference, sounding like an escapee from a psych ward who’s been living on the street for a month. His suggestion NATO countries shoot down Russian jets. His sudden embrace of Zelensky, either another stall or a stupid dare to Putin. MAGA’s RAGE AT his sudden embrace of Zelensky. The cover of a London right wing daily: his picture and in 72-point type, the word “DERANGED.” The ICE shooting in Dallas; his sadistic Homeland chief pretending the victims were agents when they were detainees; his idiot simpering Vice President pretending the victims were agents when they were detainees; his corrupt venal FBI director pretending the victims were agents when they were detainees. His ICE chief not denying he took $50,000 in a paper bag. His staff THEN denying he took $50,000 in a paper bag. His cancellation of a meeting with Democrats making sure if there’s a government shutdown it’s all his fault. His crackpot pal Milei crashing the Venezuelan economy and needing us to bail him out. His paranoia over the stopped teleprompter at the U-N that was his White House staff’s fault. His paranoia over the stopped escalator at the U-N that was his own vanity videographer’s fault. His desire to arrest the U.N. escalator technician or the U-N escalator button pusher. His desire to arrest the escalator AND James Comey. The election of Raul Grijalva’s daughter to Congress. The fact that Adelita Grijalva will be the last Representative needed to force a vote on releasing the Trump Epstein Files. His self-humiliation at the Kirk Memorial. ABC reinstating Jimmy Kimmel. Meaning Disney told him to eff off. Meaning the National Football League told him to eff off. Meaning they all told his propagandists at Sinclair to eff off. Kimmel then shoving him in a locker using only a monologue. Kimmel getting a record 6 million viewers and 22 more online in the first TWENTY hours. Kimmel and his show getting new life and maybe a new contract. His self-owning confession that HE and his goons used threats to get Kimmel cancelled. The fact that Kimmel, and ABC, and Bob Iger, and Disney, and America told Trump to SHOVE HIS THREATS. And that’s just since Sunday night. You lost to an escalator. Resign. Take Vance with you. Take Noem with you. Take Ho-man with you. Take Milei with you. LEAVE the Epstein Files. B-Block (32:53) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Jason Whitlock says eff everybody, this is Christ-land and he won't be brainwashed any more (no brain, no pain). Derrick Van Orden says Kirk was Jesus and you don't F with the Jesus so defund The Mayo Clinic (he should go there and get CT scanned) and Kristi Noem says a tweet saying she'd have a bad day was terrifying for her. This is a piece of crap who in her spare time murders puppies. C-Block (42:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: The New York Post BS firehose points at a couple of liberals at a time, then it rotates away, but eventually it makes a full circle and comes back to you. For me this has been going on since the mid-1990's and it's just started again. If you'll permit, here's a brief history.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

End Song: "Squandered" by Salvage 00:00:00 – Cold Open, Social Media “Raw Sewage,” and the Kimmel Setup The guys kick off with snack banter and a barking “producer dog,” then vent about the internet's sewage firehose and culture-war escalation—teasing the night's first big story: ABC suspending Jimmy Kimmel after his Charlie Kirk bit. 00:10:00 – Kimmel vs. Disney: The Contract Chess Match They read coverage framing Bob Iger and Disney caught between D.C. pressure and Hollywood outrage, play Kimmel's clip about Kirk, and argue Disney may just be hunting a morals-clause exit more than defending speech. 00:20:00 – “Free Speech” or Just Business? A sharper take on free-speech claims: the FCC can't outlaw Kimmel; platforms and affiliates can still walk. They contrast today's outrage with past deplatformings (e.g., Alex Jones) and point out the inconsistency of everyone's “principles.” 00:30:00 – The Australia Mix-Up & Ratings Reality They laugh over hundreds of Kimmel complaints misdirected to Australia's ABC, then note ratings and affiliate ad pressure may matter more than politics. Protest optics aside, reruns could probably match his numbers. 00:40:00 – Burchett, SKIFs, and “Deep-Water Entities” Pivot to UFOs/USOs: Rep. Tim Burchett's chatter about craft emerging from deep water; SKIF whispers around David Grusch; frustration that hearings recycle stories without subpoenaing the real gatekeepers. 00:50:00 – Invisible Residents: Classic USO Cases A tour through Ivan T. Sanderson's 1970 book: cigar-shaped blue-white craft pacing a ship, diving beneath the hull, and WWII-era objects surfacing then shooting skyward—suggesting surveillance patrols and ocean “bases.” 01:00:00 – Viral “Meteor Slime” Debunk That TikTok “living meteorite” from Panama? Great practical effects, not aliens. They cite polymer/hexane demo videos showing the exact wriggle behavior; fun Halloween content, just not real. 01:10:00 – The Hat Man: Sleep Paralysis or Shadow Entity? Deep dive into the Hat Man meme: neuroscientists say it's culture-shaped sleep paralysis; the show entertains that plus the paranormal angle (shadow people, MIB parallels). Listeners share eerily similar accounts. 01:20:00 – Call-Ins: Ouija, Weird Sleep, Witching Hour Callers recount Ouija board weirdness and a rash of 1–3 a.m. wake-ups. The crew swaps remedies and wonders—half-joking—if celestial strangeness is messing with everyone's sleep. 01:30:00 – Jezebel's “We Hired Witches” Piece Gets Pulled They review the Jezebel article boasting an Etsy curse on Charlie Kirk (later edited/removed post-assassination), debate ethics of “satire” about hexes, and note a new doc where a guy seeks to be cursed to test effects. 01:40:00 – Are Whales Trying to Talk to Us? From crop circles to “bubble circles”: humpbacks blowing rings around swimmers/boats as possible communication; shoutouts to bioacoustic playback experiments and Star Trek IV's “talk to the whales” lesson. 01:50:00 – Akron Lawn-Mower Caper & Dumb-Crime Detour Ohio man allegedly flips school-district mowers on Facebook Marketplace—embezzlement or just brazen stupidity? They roast the scheme (and marketing tactics). 02:00:00 – Flying Cars Crash, Duct-Taped Commuter & Sign-Off Chinese VTOL “flying cars” collide during an airshow rehearsal; the crew imagines an Amazon drone commuter basket and jokes about a duct-taped rider sipping a Slurpee. Closing plugs and “watch the skies…and drones.” Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research ▀▄▀▄▀ CONTACT LINKS ▀▄▀▄▀ ► Phone: 614-388-9109 ► Skype: ourbigdumbmouth ► Website: http://obdmpod.com ► Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/obdmpod ► Full Videos at Odysee: https://odysee.com/@obdm:0 ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/obdmpod ► Instagram: obdmpod ► Email: ourbigdumbmouth at gmail ► RSS: http://ourbigdumbmouth.libsyn.com/rss ► iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/our-big-dumb-mouth/id261189509?mt=2    

BULLETIN: SEASON 4 EPISODE 16, COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN In an Oval Office news briefing crazy even by his standards, Trump answered a question about the FCC blackmailing of ABC over Charlie Kirk by changing the topic to himself, making up a statistic that "94, 95, 96, or 97 percent" of all network television stories about him are critical of him, and declaring of such criticism: "That's really illegal, in my opinion." In Trump's damaged condition he could forget this by morning. But after this week's mafioso style shakedown of ABC by the FCC and the owners of Sinclair to force Jimmy Kimmel off the air by FCC Commissioner, Brendan Carr, the real question is - what if he doesn't? What if somebody like Carr in his administration decides to curry favor with Trump by trying to enforce an "it's illegal to criticize Trump" declaration"? Taking the two stories together, and perhaps adding in Trump's threat to declare something that doesn't really exist (Antifa) a "terrorist organization" (which could just as easily lead to him declaring you a member of Antifa and thus a "terrorist") the FCC's action is so bad that it provoked serious, well-thought-out, sober yet angry condemnation Friday afternoon from the unlikeliest of sources: Senator Ted Cruz, who warned Republicans that the government needed to stay out of the bullying media business. Whether that will register with Trump remains to be seen. For now the gist is: Trump says criticizing him (or in the best possible interpretation, criticizing him a LOT) is illegal. He cannot remain president under such circumstances.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A Gaslit Nation listener once asked me: What's the canary in the coal mine for American democracy? My answer: when they come for the comedians. Because when authoritarians kill the jokes, they kill the dissent. Look at Russia. In Putin's early years, Kukly, a wildly popular political satire by smack-talking puppets, mocked him mercilessly. One of his first moves? Force media consolidation. Suddenly, the show vanished. Fast forward 25 years to today, you can't hold an anti-war sign in Moscow without being arrested.  As The New York Times reported back in 2000: “‘Kukly' is political satire. But that is like calling an ermine a rodent. By turns vicious, obscene, hilarious and knowing, it has long been the most popular television show in Russia. At 10 p.m. on any given Sunday, more than half the nation's sets are riveted on the program.” [Emphasis mine]. Now it's happening here. Trump and the far-right are consolidating media ownership, especially local stations, while evangelicals push their “Seven Mountains Mandate” to seize control of religion, family, government, business, education, arts, and, of course, media. Trump is their “God's imperfect vessel"–like many strongmen featured in the Old Testament, bulldozing what's left of democracy in a white-rage backlash to the Civil Rights movement. Formerly “woke” Disney CEO Bob Iger, who previously denounced Trump's Muslim ban and Florida's anti-gay laws, is now in the crosshairs, pressured by Nexstar and Sinclair, Republican-aligned networks with monopoly-level reach. But Disney did this to itself, and the country, by giving a convicted felon a $15 million “charitable contribution” to his “presidential library” to settle a defamation suit. That surrender paved the way for the widespread mainstream media capitulation helping Trump consolidate power.  Jimmy Kimmel has now been silenced for saying what Gaslit Nation also pointed out: Charlie Kirk's killer came from the same white, male, MAGA gun culture that empowered Trump. That truth cost Kimmel his platform, so far, but thanks to you, our listeners, we can keep saying it. So who rescues us as Trump tries to turn America into Russia? Enter KPop Demon Hunters. Netflix's massive hit–its most watched film–is a reminder that the free market still caters to the people. America's greatest export isn't oil or weapons. It's culture, humor, art. Our comedians are resistance fighters with punchlines. Which means one of the best ways to fight fascism is simple: dictators hate truth and humor. Every single one of us pointing out the truth, and having a damn good time while doing it, will break the fever of this dystopian feverdream. Because pay attention to Kimmel's monologue that got him pulled from air: he goes into length on Trump's Epstein cover-up. Listen here for yourself or in the end of this week's bonus show. Like Gaslit Nation warned, Charlie Kirk's murder is being used as part of the larger Epstein cover-up.  For our Patreon members, this week's lively salon has already been posted, along with the Zoom link for next week's salon.

Matt Belloni, the host of the Town podcast and the author of Puck's 'What I'm Hearing' newsletter, joins the show to talk about Jimmy Kimmel's punishment, what happened behind the scenes at ABC and Disney, Bob Iger's legacy, and what this means at a moment when media companies are bending the knee to the Trump administration, which is clearly using its position to punish free speech despite rising to power by promising to do the opposite.

BULLETIN, SEASON 4 EPISODE 14, COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN BULLETIN (2:55): ABC announced late this afternoon that it had taken "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" off the network's air effective immediately, because Kimmel had the nerve to tell the truth about how Trump and the MAGA terrorists have exploited the indefensible assassination of Charlie Kirk, how they have tried to blame the left without evidence and with increasing evidence that this was an instance of a man who feared Kirk was a direct threat to a person he loved, and how they have ruthlessly tried to suppress all public comment that contradicts their narrative, or the nonsensical whitewashing of Kirk's violent, ultra-right platform that once included him publicly calling for the execution of President Biden. “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” Kimmel said Monday. By this afternoon FCC chairman Brendan Carr dipped into the Goebbels playbook and threatened ABC's station licenses if it did not take Kimmel off the air, and the Nexstar stations that own many ABC affiliates, said they would not broadcast any more of Kimmel's shows. At that point ABC simply said the show was off the air "for the foreseeable future." Fascism can truly overtake this country's democracy only with the collaboration of Disney and ABC and people they run them - desperate people like Bob Iger, who reclaimed the chairmanship of the company and will do anything he can to maintain it - including selling this country out to the fascists. I'll also discuss why Kimmel has no recourse against the action and will most likely not appear again, and why ABC's only contractual obligation to him is to pay him the remaining year of his salary. This part of it I've personally been through - though under far less dire circumstances. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 15: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Charlie Kirk died because he lived amid the violent madness of Donald Trump's America. Now that we can say with some certainty that if Tyler Robinson indeed shot Charlie Kirk, he shot him for personal reasons, that he saw Kirk as a direct threat to someone he loved, that Robinson was NOT a stochastic proxy murderer from Antifa or the Groypers or the Right Wingers who had so recently called Kirk a fraud like Laura Loomer, it is also clear that there is truly only ONE person whose WORDS created, amplified, mainstreamed, and manufactured the nightmarish environment that led to Charlie Kirk’s indefensible death. The leading threat in this country in this moment, to the safety and the lives of Conservatives and Republicans and MAGA commentators and politicians and citizens - the leading threat to ALL of us - is Trump. The America in which Charlie Kirk was murdered… the America in which Melissa and Mark Hortman were murdered… the America in which Paul Pelosi was beaten… the America in which Donald Trump was shot is DONALD TRUMP’s America. THIS is Donald Trump’s America and ALL THOSE who are endangered by it, and all those who fall dead at its feet, are the victims of one man and one man alone: Donald Trump. The institutionalization of vengeance is Trump. The introduction of political persecution is Trump. The inspiration for the only attempted VIOLENT OVERTHROW AND COUP against the government of the United States is Trump. The weaponization of the mob and the government against individuals he names and hopes somebody else hurts is Trump. The TERROR is Trump. B-Block (29:20) BREAKING NEWS: And the transformation of flawed democracy into lethal autocracy… is Donald Trump. After the FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr took a page from the Goebbels playbook in 1930's Germany and threatened to revoke ABC's ownership of local stations because Jimmy Kimmel dared to tell the truth about Charlie Kirk's hate speech and the MAGA exploitation of his death, Bob Iger - the Disney chairman desperate to hold on to his job and his money and his only purpose in a failed life - folded to the fascists. Kimmel is off the air, indefinitely, probably for good, and has no legal recourse to be reinstated. All he can get is the money. C-Block (49:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Robert Redford, RIP. I interviewed him once and he and it were great. And then the booking producer who was trying to get promoted to segment producer got into his ear and told him "Wrap!"See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
