Lately Marvel movies have been making for easy podcast fodder. Their blandness has only been outdone by their mediocrity. Unfortunately for us, as we were screening Thunderbolts*, we had to admit it was pretty sick. So sick, in fact, than even Gregg gave it 4 1/2 stars on Letterboxd. Gregg! That makes our job a bit of a challenge. But, to paraphrase the old maxim, a movie is never finished, merely abandoned. To that end we throw a bunch of spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks like the Brylcreem'd mane of a golden god and what falls into the void below.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 87: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: A reminder that what would become the Confederate states thought that secession was constitutional. A reminder that three and a half years earlier the Supreme Court ruled that Congress had no right to ban slavery and slaves had no rights at all. I was thinking of that as President Biden gave his farewell speech last night. Where in the constitution does it say that the nation must commit suicide because a slim majority of its voters have been fooled into believing it ISN’T? Where in the law does it say that a criminal has to be protected from all laws by judges he corruptly appointed? Where in the law does it say that one man is above it? Where in our agency over our own lives does it say that we must defer to a traitor who has corrupted politics, voting, the judiciary, everything that we must defer to him just because he’s good at being evil? And where does a President's loyalty to his people rest? In protecting the forms and rules of a broken system, or protecting those people from the greatest threat they have ever faced – the threat of his successor who has perverted that broken system to serve himself and a few cronies and whores, and condemn the rest of us? Is it Joe Biden's constitutional and moral responsibility to declare a state of insurrection and put them all behind bars… or NOT to do so? As I’ve said before, I do not have either enough words nor enough time to tell you how much this ISN’T going to happen – Doomsday, and national suicide, will continue as scheduled. Have fun! ALSO: The good news is: Pete Hegseth was interrupted three times by hecklers at the hearing for his nomination as Secretary of Brylcreem… the bad news is: it wasn’t three HUNDRED times. He might be the SMARTEST. Pam Bondi apparently didn’t hear a single threat Trump made during his campaign and Tulsi Gabbard doesn’t know what her new job is. Trump goes full Reagan: tries to grab credit for Biden and Blinken’s Hostage Deal and Cease fire. Times, Running Out: is the New York Times actually INTENTIONALLY following the self-destructive path of The Washington Post and CNN. This is not a boat accident. You don’t know Jack-Smith: going out with a whimper not a bang. Love him, but what the hell was that. And how much fun was it to hear Elon Musk make a fool of himself as LA firefighters doused his conspiracy theories with reality? B-Block (29:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: The final shoe has dropped in the saga of my ex, and it has knocked Ryan Lizza out cold. Someone named Dakota Lee Dilley has completely personified the Trump (lack of) mentality: sure they were traitors but they were GIFTED traitors. And if you hate Dan Abrams or Chuck Todd, wait'll you hear Dan Abrams DEFENDING Chuck Todd. C-Block 49:30 THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Lawrence O'Donnell's last interview? My heart raced with excitement. Then it turned out it was Joe Biden's last interview. Lawrence was just doing it and he, who correctly predicted years ago he could never host a cable news show with any skill for any considerable span, is staying. A terrible human who tried to take Countdown away from me while he was filling in for me while my dad was dying.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Pierre Poilievre is feeding new rubes from the same old bag. That's the impression I get reading Thomas Mulcair's comment for CTV. He served as NDP leader in the same House of Commons where a young Harperite named Pierre Poilievre was serving his political apprenticeship as an MP from the Ottawa area, and a junior minister in the Harper Government. About Poilievre Mulcair say "They can lose the glasses, drop the tie, slow the cadence & reduce the Brylcreem." Those of us who got to know his overheated demagoguery firsthand know nothing will have really changed. As Ottawa replaced its police chief, families were still suffering because a few hundred malcontents had decided they'd occupy Ottawa until the government was replaced. What did Poilievre do to help put an end to the drama? Far from being opposed to those involved in that illegal occupation, he brought them donuts and encouragement. That's the same Poilievre who talks about the importance of respecting the rule of law. Poilievre tends to see nothing good in…goodness, in generosity of spirit and benevolence. He knows what's right and he'll try to shove it down your throat if you don't see things the way he does. In Calgary, no adequate government response to the outbreak of E. coli in Calgary daycare centres - 190 cases - 27 children are in the hospital, of whom 20 have “severe illness.” Andre Picard Health columnist Globe and Mail writes Premier Danielle Smith and provincial Minister of Health Adriana LaGrange have been “sending thoughts and prayers” to parents. Argh. Picard is on the money. The uncomfortable truth here is that that United Conservative Party in Alberta is next to useless governing during a public health emergency. Whether it was Jason Kenney during Covid or Danielle Smith during this E-Coli outbreak, the serious and serial truth is the UCP is a public healthy emergency in Alberta. In Western Africa two countries are devastated by natural disasters. In Morocco the official death toll in their 6.8 Earthquake near Marrakesh is approaching 3,000 people. Down the road in Libya flooding has killed thousands. We don't know how many thousand. We do know that 10 thousand are missing. Aaron Rodgers will likely be missing in action for the next few weeks. The new Quarterback for the Jets hobbled after being tackled in the opening seconds of the first quarter. A no name Quarterback who wasn't even drafted piloted the Jets to a squeaker of a Monday Night Football win over Buffalo.

Has anyone checked whether Trevor Mallard has been wearing any blue or red bandanas recently? In case you don't know, blue is Black Power and red is the Mongrel Mob. Or, if you're in America, blue is the Crips and red is the Bloods. The reason I ask this is that the Police are apparently planning some sort of crackdown on gangs – and one of the things they're going to be targeting is intimidating behaviour. And I reckon if it's going to have any hope in hell of working, they're going to have to start at the very top and crackdown on the Chief Intimidator himself, the Honourable Trevor Mallard, Speaker of the House. Because, as we've been hearing in the news, he's been doing some weird things lately. Irrigating the lawns – even though it's raining – and even though he's got guests camping outside. Playing music loudly at night. All night. Not inside – but outside. Real intimidating stuff. But now, he's gone above and beyond and he's picking on a poor-old 77-year-old retired man who is facing the prospect of not being allowed to go to the place he loves for the next two years. A place this 77-year-old retired man has been going to since 1979. 43 years. And now, he's been told he's been trespassed for two years and to stay away. You imagine being that 77-year-old retired man. You've paid your taxes. You've always had a smile on your dial – even when you've fallen out with your mates or been given the boot by your boss. You've always made sure that you're dressed up to the nines and you certainly haven't let yourself go. The way you've looked after your hair is a real credit and has been an inspiration for silver foxes up and down the country. You imagine being that 77-year-old retired man who, when you discovered you were getting more of the pension than you were entitled to, you paid it all back. It was nearly $20,000 – but you paid it back. All of it. You've always been the life and soul of the party. Sometimes you've kept us waiting – but you've always eventually turned up. And like every New Zealander worth their salt, you've stood up for this place. You've put this country first. New Zealand First – that's what you've always said. New Zealand first. And even though you're 77, and probably entitled to take things a bit easier, sitting in front of the TV all day is not for you. “Make sure you stay curious and try to learn new things”. That's what the ageing experts say you should be doing – even when you get to 77. And that's exactly what you've done. But the old bully boy's telling you off for it. You saw something was going on at the place you've been going to day-in, day-out for the past 43 years – the place you love. And so, you put your suit on, put a comb and some Brylcreem through your hair, and went down there and had a chat with a few people. You were curious and active – a poster boy for old age. But now, at the age of 77, you're being told off like a naughty schoolboy. And who's the bully boy who's told you off? It's old Trevor again – waving the big stick yet again. Old Trevor – irrigation enthusiast and Barry Manilow fan. And he's told you, Winston Raymond Peters, that you are banned from going to Parliament for two years. And do you know what? I think old Trevor has well-and-truly lost it this time. And he's not just picking on you Winston Raymond Peters. He's told another ex-MP – Matt King – that he's trespassed from Parliament for two years. Former ACT MP Stephen Franks is another one too. All were banned for two years because they had the gall to turn up to the anti-mandate protest at Parliament. I said it at the time when he used the sprinklers on the protesters, that Trevor Mallard was a national embarrassment. But this latest behaviour takes it to the next level, doesn't it? And if Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern doesn't sack Trevor Mallard from the Speaker role ASAP, then I think she will run an even greater risk of becoming a 43-year-old retired politician in a year or s...

Hello hello hello and welcome to the Better Each Day podcast where recording artists' share their backstories and their music and any embarrassing moments they care to share. I'm Bruce Hilliard and thank you for being here. The '60s — an era when television was still a modern marvel, and viewers only had a few channels to choose from — TV variety shows were one of the most important influences of pop culture. Thus, Beatles fans were especially eager to show their support for their favorite boys by watching them on the small screen whenever they scored a televised gig. The band's February 9, 1964 performance on The Ed Sullivan Show was a particularly historic moment. According to the show's official website, it was their first live American television appearance. The boys played five of their most popular songs at the time: "All My Loving," "Till There Was You," "She Loves You," "I Saw Her Standing There," and "I Want to Hold Your Hand." The performance drew 73 million people to their TV screens. I love the song list because it starts out with an up tempo, new to American ears “All My Loving” and immediately segues into “Till There Was You”, a ballad from a popular broadway hit and movie…a song that would prevent the parents from switching the TV to Disney. It worked like nothing our generation could have ordered from a genie. Annoying enough parents (check), introducing new music (check) and making it look so f'ing fun and easy everyone watching wanted to be part of it. When I say “annoying the parents” I mean that in a way that points out that the Beatles never harshed anyone and didn't intend Armageddon by wearing their hair a hair longer than the normal Brylcreem buzz of the day and the radical suits and ties. Punkers in a tux. In honor of the iconic broadcast's 58th anniversary in 2022, the Better Each Day Podcast collected snips from the anals (I shouldn't go for that one any more) of time for a scrapbook of memorabilia. We had just witnessed a seismic cultural shift." Fans started their own unofficial clubs, as well. Many of them amassed private collections of Beatles memorabilia. One Oregon club possessed a whopping "30 Beatle books, 9 Beatle records, over 2,000 Beatle bubblegum cards (some are duplicates) and 3,000 Beatles pictures." Beatles fans who wanted to show off their affinity for the band with merch had a vast array of products to choose from. According to Consequence of Sound, in 1964, the Wall Street Journal declared that Beatlemaniacs across America were buying "Beatle wigs, Beatle dolls, Beatle egg cups and Beatle T-shirts, sweatshirts and narrow-legged pants." Beatle wigs? That's right. Plenty of the band's biggest admirers saw them as the perfect accessory to sport at concerts. The pop-on mop-tops were so popular that Lowell Toy Company, their officially licensed manufacturer, once told a reporter, "We're turning out about 15,000 a day, but we've got a backlog of 500,000 orders." The wigs were only the tip of the iceberg. According to American Profile, young Beatles lovers in the '60s could also purchase officially licensed Beatles Halloween costumes, complete with flame-retardant masks. Beatles-themed board games, stockings printed with the boys' faces, Beatles-branded hairspray, and "Big Beat Beatles Bongos" were available, as well. My personal goal is to become famous, say something the journalist can spin, make everyone like me and have a Pez dispenser mass produced in my likeness. Accents and trends: Start with kids. Someone didn't come here from England in the 1700s and suddenly proclaim (with a thick southern accent) “Hey there whisker biscuit, what say we pop a few poppers and Q up some ribs!” No. It's the next generation of Americans, those little snots, that lead our societies off on their new journeys to the latest ways. In this case, there had been a world war just over a decade prior, our president had been...
Episode 51: Let's get one thing straight: this is not fucking official. The boys got some hot goss' that you're gonna wanna eavesdrop on like yesterday, so Brylcreem that hair back hard and give a listen. But be careful what you listen for...there's no proof that it's real. When things go bump in the night, just know that you'll be alright. The boys are here and (good news) the tests came back clear! Clear of sanity, that is! Since you're nutzo, why not listen to episode 51 before you strip naked and try to love a cop's gun?

It's likely some listeners are part of the retro/vintage fashion community. Maybe you use Brylcreem in your hair every single morning. Maybe that dress in your closet was made in 1952 and doesn't have a thread out of place. Or maybe you love a good scroll through #pinupfashion. Whether you dabble, or you're all in, chances are you've heard of Bésame Cosmetics. Founded in 2004 in Los Angeles, with it's first boutique location in Burbank, Bésame is the epitome of retro makeup. This week, in the pod's first two-part interview (because there was no way to squish this one into a single episode), the Mavens interview makeup historian and founder of Bésame Cosmetics Gabriela Hernandez. In part one, we learn about Gabriela's childhood, hair struggles, makeup chemistry, and the accidental birth of the iconic makeup used by, among others, Agent Peggy Carter in the Avengers films.

This is my horror housemate story. If you think you've heard them all you haven't. Enjoy!!
In this episode Dave and Jeff make their way through the life and (mis)adventures of Heinrich Schliemann, the German polyglot, tycoon, and romantic who was instrumental in the discovery of the sites of ancient Troy and Mycenae. Who was this man? Was he a legitimate archaeologist? A mad genius? A grave robber? Charlatan? All of the above? Come along as we dig up Priam's Treasure, death masks that resemble puffer fish, as well as tackle weighty questions such as "Did the Mycenaeans tweak their handle-bar moustaches with some sort of ancient Brylcreem?". And fellas: don't miss some hot tips for finding that special lady who exudes an "Homeric Spirit".
Claire's storytelling talents have been featured all over including several different episodes of Confabulation. So many thanks to her for sharing her time and talents with the show.Paul McCartney has told interviewers that She Loves You was initially written in Newcastle while the Beatles were on tour with Roy Orbison and Gerry and the Pacemakers and completed at his home in Liverpool. He says the song was initially inspired the call and response pattern in Forget Him by teen idol Bobby Rydell (check out the Brylcreem in that dreamboat photo!) I don't hear it, myself. But I guess that's why he's a billionaire OBE and I'm...not. As always, I'd encourage you to listen to the song before (and even again after) you hear the episode. I find it's especially interesting to hear a song as well known as She Loves you from someone else's perspective. Make sure you follow The Volume Knob on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or at our website volumeknob.net.And if you have a story about the song that saved your life be sure to send it to me at volumeknobpod@gmail.com.
Eager to chill out after the last episode's grim antics in the swamps of the South, Sean, Cody and film expert Kris Hill settle down to tea in a pleasant suburban New England and become embroiled in a steamy melodrama with heavy environmental undertones. In Douglas Sirk's 1955 masterpiece All That Heaven Allows, rich matronly widow Cary Scott (Jane Wyman) is powerless to resist the flannel-clad, Brylcreem-pompadoured sizzle emitted by free-spirited arborist Rob Kirby (Rock Hudson) who is some indeterminate number of years younger than her. But when she and Ron start gearing up the wedding machine, the whole town and especially Cary's insufferable adult children rise in outraged revolt to enforce their incoherent vision of 1950s sexual morality. Environmental issues discussed include the physical and social legacy of New England's colonial past, the curious unreality of American suburbs, white flight and racial covenanting, slow living in the hinterlands, and more. How did patterns of land use from the very beginning of European colonization of New England filter down into the 20th century? What are the many different ways that suburbs came into being, or were deliberately created? Why will environmental historians pounce eagerly on any chance to discuss William Cronon's Changes in the Land? What was the Hays Code and why is it such a big factor in this film? Who coined the term “Make America Great Again” and what, if anything, does it mean? How were the 1950s like the 1980s? Why does the shadow of Ronald Reagan loom so large over this movie even though he's not in it? Is All That Heaven Allows one of the greatest films ever made, right up there with Citizen Kane? If so, why is its ending so hokey? All these questions and more are in the firing line in this unabashedly romantic episode of Green Screen.

It’s 1950s night at Flight Through Entirety, which means putting on bobby socks, combing Brylcreem through our remaining hair (if any), and leaving our copies of The Doctor Who Monster Book at home. It’s Delta and the Bannermen.
In this episode, you will hear the brilliant actor Maxine Peake talking about the poem that has been a friend to her: 'Turns' by Tony Harrison. Maxine visited The Poetry Exchange at John Rylands Library in May 2016. We're very grateful to John Rylands Library for hosting The Poetry Exchange. Thank you also to Tony Harrison and Faber & Faber Publishers for kindly granting permission for us to use this poem. Do visit them for further inspiration: www.faber.co.uk/author/tony-harrison/ www.library.manchester.ac.uk/rylands/ Maxine is in conversation with The Poetry Exchange team members, Fiona Bennett and Michael Schaeffer. 'Turns' is read by Michael Schaeffer. ***** Turns by Tony Harrison I thought it made me look more 'working class' (as if a bit of chequered cloth could bridge that gap!) I did a turn in it before the glass. My mother said: It suits you, your dad's cap. (She preferred me to wear suits and part my hair: You're every bit as good as that lot are!) All the pension queue came out to stare. Dad was sprawled beside the postbox (still VR), his cap turned inside up beside his head, smudged H A H in purple Indian ink and Brylcreem slicks displayed so folks might think he wanted charity for dropping dead. He never begged. For nowt! Death's reticence crowns his life's, and me, I'm opening my trap to busk the class that broke him for the pence that splash like brackish tears into our cap. 'Turns' by Tony Harrison. Taken from ‘Selected Poems'. (Penguin; 3rd Revised ed. edition, 7 Feb. 2013)
Nude Reagan (Spurl Editions, 2016) is John Brian King’s second book of photography. His first book, LAX: Photographs of Los Angeles 1980-84, was published by Spurl Editions in 2015. For his most recent book, King photographed twenty-three nude female models with a Fujifilm Instax Mini 8 camera in an empty Palm Springs office space. Each model wore the same Ronald Reagan mask, striking any pose she liked. Deliberately unsettling, these photographs depict Reagan as a demon and specter haunting the modern world. Evoking the dead conservative president, the models wear the hideous dark-eyed mask anemic and wrinkled and morph into unerotic, freakish wraiths. The colors of the photographs accentuate these figures’ eerie qualities: the camera’s unpredictable flash turns the bland office backdrop alternately into a mold green, a muddy gray, a brilliant white, or a dense, all-encompassing black setting. The womens’ shadows are sometimes starkly present, and at other times disappear. King was influenced by such disparate sources as Conrad Veidt’s The Man Who Laughs; Reagan’s own frozen, Brylcreem-lathered countenance; artist Maurizio Cattelan’s sardonic approach to politics in art; and Ralph Eugene Meatyard’s Southern Gothic photographs of masked children. JOHN BRIAN KING is a Los Angeles native who graduated with a degree in photography from the California Institute of the Arts. He designed the film titles for over thirty films, including Boogie Nights, Punch-Drunk Love,and The Ring. He wrote and directed the feature film Redlands, an examination of creativity and horror in relation to photography. His book LAX: Photographs of Los Angeles 1980-84 was featured in the Los Angeles Times, Slate, Impose Magazine, LCeil de la Photographie, Yet Magazine, It’s Nice That, AnOther Magazine, and more.

The Bonding. Few writers played a larger role in shaping modern Star Trek than Ronald D. Moore, but his first foray into Roddenberry's universe came in the form of a spec script that was turned into the early third-season episode “The Bonding.” It's a story that is often forgotten, but one that offers the first glimpses of the cerebral, introspective, and philosophical stories that came to define The Next Generation. In this episode of The Ready Room we discuss “The Bonding” and a number of issues that are addressed in the episode including the practice of carrying families on starships, coping with the inevitability of death when exploring the unknown, and why children in Star Trek look like little adults. We also explain the apparently extremely simplistic Klingon ritual known as The Bonding. In news we cover the third trailer for the TNG Remastered project, George Takei's casting on Celebrity Apprentice, the new Bandai “Next Phase” expansion set for the Star Trek Deck Building Game, the casting of Benedict Cumberbatch as the villain in the next movie, and we preview the final two tracks from Five Year Mission's Year Two. Plus we reveal yet another of our 1,000 rejected plots for Star Trek IV.
