For the entire month of March, the guys at Not A Bomb are throwing it back to their old Movie Matchup format—pitting notorious box office bombs against each other in a battle for redemption. Two flops enter… only one survives. There can only be one!Crank up the amps, listeners, because this week we're going full volume with a double feature of rock‑and‑roll misfits: Airheads and The Rocker. That's right, Troy and Brad are diving into two cult‑leaning comedies about musicians who refuse to let obscurity, bad decisions, or basic common sense get in their way.Airheads (1994)Directed by Michael Lehmann and starring Brendan Fraser, Steve Buscemi, Adam Sandler, Chris Farley, Michael McKean, Ernie Hudson, Judd Nelson, and Joe Mantegna, this ‘90s cult favorite asks the truly important questions: What happens when your band can't get airplay and your best plan is… taking a radio station hostage? How did one movie manage to pack in this many iconic comedic faces? And why, despite all the chaos, does it still feel painfully relatable to every band that's ever played a half-empty club while their drummer argues about artistic integrity?The Rocker (2008)Directed by Peter Cattaneo and starring Rainn Wilson, Christina Applegate, Josh Gad, Emma Stone, Teddy Geiger, Jeff Garlin, and Jane Lynch, this one brings the arena‑rock energy with a side of midlife crisis. The MatchupFrom hostage‑taking metalheads to a washed‑up drummer chasing redemption, the guys break down which film hits the right notes, which one bombs, and which earns the coveted weekly crown. It's an episode packed with laughs, nostalgia, big hair, bigger egos, and enough rock‑movie absurdity to fill a stadium.We Want to Hear From YouGot a cinematic flop you want us to tackle?

Chris and Neil are back to wax semi-poetic about two recent movies. First, they go back a little bit in 2025 and talk Rental Family starring the venerable Brendan Fraser. Then, after news, they wear gloves and try not to kill anyone in Crime 101 starring Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Halle Berry, Barry Keoghan, Monica Babaro and even Nick Nolte. Is Rental Family even worth renting? Is Crime 101 a masterclass in failure? The answer lies in front of you. It only takes a few clicks. Don't be a square. Listen. Or not. I'm hungry.

In this final installment of Febwhaleary, we take a look at one of the rarest whales on the planet: The Comeback Whale. A giant in Hollywood, he rose to the top of the food chain in the late nineties; soaring through jungles, and winning victories over Mummies in the desert. But the seas of Hollywood can be a treacherous wilderness filled with predators, and sadly...the Comeback Whale would be one of their many victims.But, like the best stories in cinema, this one has a happy ending. Years later, the Comeback Whale would return to dominance once again in 2023, earning the respect and highest accolades of its peers. Though researchers are divided if the Comeback Whale's latest venture is truly his crowning achievement, one thing is certain – the results are welcome, for everyone loves a good comeback tale, and this one is called: The Whale.I'm your host, Dave, and joining me as we try our best to write an honest fucking essay are fellow cinephiles and whale watchers Mike, Jackie, and Ryan.Topics of discussion in this episode include how The Whale may rank among Apocalypse Video's Mount Rushmore of Bad; Ryan does his best as the film's Public Defender; and finally, we do a dive into Darren Aronofsky's latest A.I. generated film and whether it will generate enough money to satiate his scarf buying addiction.Be sure to rate, review and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

Het voor meerdere Oscars genomineerde The Secret Agent vertelt het meeslepende relaas van een man zich die in politiek roerige tijden, Brazilië in de jaren 70, probeert te herenigen met zijn zoon. Klinkt als een simpel uitgangspunt, maar de film van Kleber Mendonca Filho is geen makkelijke kijkervaring. Aan de MovieInsiders om een handje te helpen. Volgens Jasper en Gudo is dit zowel realistische als soms absurdistische epos namelijk een absolute must. En hoofdrolspeler Wagner Moura een terechte Oscarkandidaat. Na een diepe duik in deze film, passeren kort nog wat andere titels de revue. Hoe bevielen bijvoorbeeld Rental Family met Brendan Fraser en de 'bijna-docu' The Voice of Hind Rajab?

Description This week we're skipping the blockbusters for the weird, wild, and mostly forgotten gems. Grab your neural implants and alien blasters as we explore the sci-fi movies that time almost left behind. From cyberpunk head-scratchers to B-movie alien invasions, we revisit the fascinating, flawed, and surprisingly ambitious sci-fi films that didn't quite make the Hall of Fame, but absolutely deserve another look.   News Marvel Oreos - The Stuf of Legends has arrived with superhero-themed cookies.   Millennium Falcon Pilot Chair - A detailed rolling chair replica inspired by Han Solo's cockpit seat is now available.   The 'Burbs TV Series - A Peacock series inspired by the 1989 Tom Hanks classic quietly dropped all episodes.   The Mummy 4 - Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz return on May 19, 2028 for the next installment.   During the Super Bowl, we got new looks at The Mandalorian and Grogu, Project Hail Mary, Super Mario Galaxy, Supergirl, Disclosure Day, and The Adventures of Cliff Booth.   Check out our TeePublic store for some enjoyable swag and all the latest fashion trends What we're Enjoying Shua has been diving into Reacher, where the towering former military policeman dispenses his own brand of justice with quiet intensity and very loud punches. Based on the Lee Child novels, the series delivers tightly constructed mysteries and satisfying payoffs that make it perfect comfort viewing for action fans. Jay is revisiting Twin Peaks Season 1, soaking in David Lynch's wonderfully strange blend of soap opera melodrama and unsettling mystery. Between cherry pie, coffee, and cryptic dream sequences, it's a masterclass in mood and quirky storytelling that still feels fresh decades later.     Sci-Fi Saturdays -  This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay looks at the forgotten sci-fi gem Colossal (2017). Gloria (Anne Hathaway), an out-of-work woman struggling with alcoholism, returns to her hometown only to discover she may somehow be connected to a giant monster attacking Seoul. It's a clever, genre-bending mix of kaiju chaos and personal drama, blending big sci-fi spectacle with intimate character study. Hathaway did a great job, and Jason Sudeikis plays against type in a role that's equal parts charming and unsettling. Read his article on RetroZap.com. And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.   Enjoy Movies!  The 1990s were packed with massive sci-fi blockbusters! But what about the ones that didn't dominate the multiplex? This week, Jay and Shua explore the fascinating middle tier of 90s science fiction: the cyber-thrillers, alien shootouts, dystopian futures, and existential thought experiments that lived just outside the spotlight.   From cult classics to genuine box office swings, they discuss why some of these films faded from pop culture memory while others quietly built loyal fanbases. It's a nostalgic, lighthearted look at the ambition, weirdness, and undeniable creativity that made 90s sci-fi such a strange and wonderful era. Which animated character would you pick?

In Rental Family, the new Tokyo-set drama starring Brendan Fraser, writer-director Hikari poses the question: “Can fantasies and fictions ever fill the gaps left in our lives by the people we miss; the things that we long for?” It's a question the filmmaker – real name Mitsuyo Miyazaki – sets up and then resists answering in any declarative way. Instead, the film – about a washed-up American actor named Phillip who begins playing roles in the lives of strangers – treads around the topic with curiosity and empathy. Loneliness and loss, this drama seems to say, are a part of life, and sometimes we as a species go to unusual lengths in search of a balm for that pain. That's not necessarily healthy. It's not necessarily unhealthy either. It's just something that we do. And it leads to phenomena like “rental families” – a concept that really does exist in Japan, in which actors perform the role of a loved one in exchange for a fee. In today's spoiler conversation, Hikari – a former dancer and rap photographer, best known in film and TV for her work on the Netflix series Beef – joins Al to discuss what the growth of rental families in her home country of Japan says about where we're at as a society. The filmmaker breaks down how she translated the universal loneliness epidemic that the rental family industry is testament to, into this beautifully understated tale.Script Apart is hosted by Al Horner and produced by Kamil Dymek.

She spent decades in prayer and celibacy, then hit 57, downloaded the internet, and said “oh… THIS is what we've been missing.” Now she's got clients young enough to still have homework and zero interest in OnlyFans because, quote, that sounds boring. Inspirational? Traumatizing? Both.Then we get into the most depressing career math of all time: a woman casually sings seven words into her phone for a Dr Pepper jingle and walks away with $2 million, while the rest of us are out here working full-time jobs and eating gas-station sandwiches. Naturally, this leads to the crew trying to invent jingles for every brand that will absolutely never call back.Somehow that spirals into one of the most fun debates we've had in a while — the biggest debut albums of all time. We're talking massive numbers, MTV miracles, and how one 4am spin turned a “failed” album into a 50-million-copy monster. Along the way we argue, forget basic facts, remember them loudly, and realize radio used to be way more powerful than TikTok will ever admit.Movies get dragged (respectfully… mostly), Brendan Fraser gets the comeback love he deserves, and we debate whether seeing a movie in a theater automatically adds two letter grades just because popcorn exists.In Crap on Celebrities, we hit everything from band lawsuits and surprise documentaries to tour dropouts, concert ticket chaos, and some genuinely heartbreaking but honest conversations about aging, memory, and how terrifying it is to not know what's happening inside your own brain.We also celebrate birthdays, overshare existential dread, and somehow end the show discussing a literal geyser of poop water blasting into the Potomac River — because if we're going to spiral, we're doing it together.It's another daily comedy podcast episode packed with weird news, pop culture, dark laughs, and moments where we all pause and go, “Wait… are we okay?”Spoiler: probably not. But at least we're funny.MUSICMotley Crue has officially won its heated legal battle against former guitarist Mick Mars. Lainey Wilson sure has kept herself busy.

Brendan Fraser stars in 2001's Monkeybone—a dark comedy based on a child's erection that's a Drop Dead Fred situation wrapped in a Jacob's Ladder scenario. LIVE from NYC, HDTGM all-star Rob Huebel helps Paul and Jason discuss Stu's flabby arm fetish, if Bridget Fonda was an unethical doctor, Chris Kattan's electric performance as a reanimated corpse of a gymnast, all the weird characters in Down Town, Monkeybone's sex scene with Julie, and so much more. Plus, special guest Griffin Newman from the Blank Check podcast drops by to passionately defend Monkeybone as a great film.

Also, Ken Tucker shares three songs dominating the charts: Neko Case's "Oh, Neglect...," Valerie June's "Runnin' and Searchin'" and Olivia Dean's "Man I Need" Follow Fresh Air on instagram @nprfreshair, and subscribe to our weekly newsletter for gems from the Fresh Air archive, staff recommendations, and a peek behind the scenes. Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
