When proto-warp cracks the universe's cocaine mirror, the kids arrive back at Voyager to find a ship shattered into different realities. But when Jamie Lee Janeway and Goatee Chakotay learn about the Loom the hard way, Gwyn and her armband set everything right for a happy reunion. What can we expect out of Prodigy Season 3? When do kids become Steve Zahn appropriate? Where did Maj'El disappear to?

A Ronald Liamas Interview.

An "FYI" episode with Dr Sherwin Ona, Dr. Robin Garcia & Dean Dr. Gary Ador Dionisio.

John is joined by Semafor editor-in-chief Ben Smith to discuss the role of private group chats in pushing Silicon Valley's politics to the right—and many of its most powerful figures into the arms of Donald Trump. Ben lays out how dozens of hush-hush Signal and WhatsApp groups emerged during Covid among the tech elite in reaction to what its members saw as the stifling woke conformity of social media; the seminal role of venture capitalist Marc Andreessen in seeding these forums; and how their influence now flows through X, Substack, and podcasts, making them the "dark matter of American politics and media." Ben also contends that, 100 days into his second term, Trump is starting to feel the pull of political gravity; that Semafor, which he cofounded three years ago, still retains the vaulting ambitions the company famously trumpeted at launch; and that the recent tumult in financial markets has elevated "Margin Call" from a cult classic to the greatest Wall Street movie of all time.

In this powerful episode of the H.E.A.L. Her Podcast, Makini sits down with Michelle Bong, an entrepreneur, trauma survivor, and beauty industry trailblazer who is revolutionizing the way we see beauty and healing. From navigating personal pain to launching a nationwide brand, Michelle's journey is one of resilience, reinvention, and purpose-driven success. Michelle shares how a deep dive into self-awareness and healing helped her redefine beauty—not just as something external but as a sacred form of self-care. She opens up about the trauma that shaped her, the mindset shifts that helped her breakthrough, and the soul-led mission that landed her on Dragon's Den and into 188 Walmart stores across Canada.  In this episode, we talk about: Michelle's bold transition from dental assisting to beauty mogul Turning pain into purpose through entrepreneurship The emotional journey behind creating Elevate Brows Representation in the beauty industry and healing through self-expression How trauma shapes identity—and how healing reclaims it Why beauty is more than appearance—it's energy, intention, and self-love This episode is a reminder that no matter what you've been through, you can rise, redefine your story, and build something beautiful from the broken pieces.

We showed up starry-eyed and bushy-tailed for Bong Joon Ho's most recent film since his Oscar-winning "Parasite."

Send us a textMickey 17 marks Bong Joon-ho's triumphant return to filmmaking following his historic Oscar sweep with Parasite. The film stars Robert Pattinson as an "expendable" – a human clone repeatedly sent on dangerous missions with his consciousness transferred to a new body after each death. When two versions of Mickey unexpectedly exist simultaneously, the story transforms into something far more complex than its sci-fi premise suggests.What surprised me most about Mickey 17 was its comedic tone. Rather than the tense thriller the early teasers suggested, Bong delivers a surprisingly daffy, slapstick comedy reminiscent of silent film greats. Pattinson commits fully to this goofier register, creating a character both vulnerable and resilient. Mark Ruffalo shines as a fictitious failed politician leading the colony, channeling elements of current political figures with remarkable precision despite denying any intentional parallels.The film continues Bong's exploration of class struggle, environmental concerns, and corporate critique – themes present throughout his filmography. However, Mickey 17's narrative structure relies heavily on narration and flashbacks, departing from the linear storytelling that made his previous works so effective. This structural change, combined with ambitious world-building, creates a film that feels occasionally unfocused compared to the tight construction of Parasite or Memories of Murder.Watching Mickey 17 prompted a complete reexamination of Bong's career, from his debut Barking Dogs Never Bite to his Oscar-winning Parasite. What emerges is a portrait of a filmmaker whose remarkable consistency places him among cinema's contemporary masters. Even when experimenting with new genres or techniques, Bong maintains a distinct voice that seamlessly blends social commentary with genre entertainment. While Mickey 17 may not reach the heights of his greatest achievements, it demonstrates his continued willingness to take creative risks while delivering thought-provoking cinema that challenges and entertains in equal measure.Support the show

FROM MONKEY TO……MICKEY! NEW EPISODE PRINTED! Innovative visualist, Oscar winning Korean director Bong Joon Ho roars back with the new sci-fi satire Mickey 17, starring the glittery vampire OR Batman (depending on who you talk to) Robert Pattinson, Naomi Ackie (another WS+ notch for her), Steven Yuen, Mark Ruffalo, and Toni Collette. Fresh off the out of the box Oscar sweep for the film Parasite, Bong's resume swings back to some of the sci fi narrative and themes tread in his other films (The Host, Snowpiercer, Okja, anyone?). BUT does this allegorical genre mashup stick the landing or does Bong's crock pot overflow with too many ingredients? Listen as the Boys hash this out in a way that pays homage to the film's re-print theme (and for whatever reasons, Cupcake ends up shilling and defending not one, but TWO Reese Witherspoon films in the process). GET US IN YOUR EARS!!!!For pluses, Jose talks up a pioneering re-invention of a hygiene drug store staple while Mike reviews a film (Editor's note: Oh not another documentary?) that has more in common with Mickey 17 than just one of its actors.#podcast #newpodcast #movie #moviereview #moviereviewpodcast #film #filmisnotdead #cinematography #filmcritic #Mickey17 #bongjoonho #robertpattinson #naomiackie, #stevenyuen #markruffalo #tonicollete #timkey #patsyferran #cameronbritton #dariuskhondji #jungjaeil #bradpitt #warnerbros #planbentertainment #Offscreen #katestreetpicturecompanyTIMESTAMPS00:00:00 New Chapter00:00:59 INTRO00:03:23 Mickey 17: Below the Line00:11:53 Mickey 17: A Deep cast00:32:58 Spoiler Free Thoughts00:51:34 SPOILERS AHEAD01:13:07 Jose's Plus01:16:25 Mike's Plus01:25:11 Outro- - - - - - - - - -WE ARE WATCH SKIP PLUS!
