Welcome to The Reel Schmooze with ToI film reviewer Jordan Hoffman and host Amanda Borschel-Dan, where we bring you all the entertainment news and film reviews a Jew can use. This week, the pair introduces the concept of the new show, including the segment, "What's the Jangle," in which they discuss two tidbits of Jewish entertainment news. We hear how "The Real Pain" creator Jesse Eisenberg is willing to go under the knife to donate a kidney to a perfect stranger. And we learn about two brave Hollywood actresses -- Meryl Streep and Sigourney Weaver -- who haven't joined the boycott Israel movement and are signed on to work with Israeli director Joseph Ceder in his upcoming thriller. Next, we get to "The Main Screening," a segment in which the duo discusses two films: the newly released Natalie Portman project, "Arco," and 2024's "Thelma" starring 96-year-old June Squibb. Hear which films get the seal of approval from our team and which was a split decision on this week's The Reel Schmooze. The Reel Schmooze can be found wherever you get your podcasts.

Die Netflix-Serie "The Beast in Me" bringt zwei Stars zusammen, die durch Serien berühmt wurden, in denen es um Versteckspiel, Täuschung und Manipulation ging: Claire Danes aus "Homeland" und Matthew Rhys aus „The Americans“. Ist ihr „The Beast in Me“ ein weiterer Klassiker? Jan und Eric sind in dieser Frage durchaus unterschiedlicher Ansicht. Danach sprechen wir über die norwegische Serie "Toxic Tom" in der ZDF-Mediathek, die so ungewöhnlich ist, dass wir wie letzte Woche darüber gerätselt haben, wie wir euch sie nahe bringen wollen, ohne die geradezu unglaublichen Überraschungen zu spoilern. Im Serienwettbewerb von Cannes hat "Toxic Tom" 2025 den Preis als beste Serie gewonnen.

Elle Fanning is an A-list actor who calls herself a "nepo sister.” When she was just two years old, she appeared in her sister Dakota Fanning's movie “I Am Sam,” playing a younger version of her character, Lucy. But for someone who's been famous for nearly her entire life, there's a bit of mystery surrounding Elle — and that's intentional. During the Toronto International Film Festival in September, she sat down with Tom Power to talk about her latest film, “Sentimental Value,” which broke applause records when it premiered in Cannes earlier this year. She discusses the movie, her start in acting and why she wants to maintain some mystery around who she is.

Esta madrugada hemos invitado a 'El Faro' al cineasta Guillermo Galoe para hablar del inminente estreno de su última película, 'Ciudad sin sueño'. A Galoe ya le conocimos con 'Aunque es de noche', un cortometraje galardonado con un Goya en el que retrataba la realidad de la Cañada Real. Su nueva película, premiada también en el Festival de Cannes, vuelve a poner el foco en el que es el mayor asentamiento irregular de Europa, donde viven unas 8.000 personas que llevan más de 40 años pidiendo unas condiciones de vida dignas. En su sección de los martes, Alejandro Pelayo nos ha traído un recopilatorio de las canciones que más se pide tocar a los pianistas. Y la 'Gataparda' esta madrugada ha sido la artista multidisciplinar Miriam Garlo, protagonista de la película 'Sorda', dirigida por Eva Libertad.

I denne episoden presenterer vi andre del av vår samtale med Joachim Trier om Affeksjonsverdi. I første del dykket vi ned i filmens tematikk, mens vi i denne avsluttende delen snakker mer om fortellingens mange meta-nivåer. Trier deler blant annet sine tanker om hva slags regissør Gustav Borg er, betydningen av manuset-i-filmen – pluss at han forteller om sitt vennskap med Paul Thomas Anderson og gleden over å se One Battle After Another.  Etter verdenspremieren i Cannes i mai og påfølgende kinolansering denne høsten, har Affeksjonsverdi blitt årets suverent mest omtalte norske film. Hundretusenvis av publikummere har strømmet til kinosalene (også i utlandet), og langvarige diskusjoner om filmen har ledet til flere interessante debatter – inkludert kritikken i Morgenbladet og meningsutvekslingen som fulgte. Faste lyttere vil huske at Joachim Trier har vært gjest hos oss på Filmfrelst tidligere – først i episode #102 om tidenes 10 beste filmer og deretter i episode #473 om Verdens verste menneske. Deltagelsen her på Filmfrelst er Triers eneste (eksklusive) norske podkastopptreden i høst – denne samtalen begynte i forrige episode (#650, hør den her) og fortsetter altså her nedenfor. Triers store filminteresse kommer tydelig frem i dialog med Montages-redaktør Karsten Meinich, og i tillegg til at denne praten fokuserer på Trier og medmanusforfatter Eskil Vogts ideer rundt Gustav Borg som filmskaper, kommer denne episoden også inn på betydningen av bevegelse i film og på hvilken måte Yasujirō Ozus filmer har inspirert Trier. Til slutt er vi også kort innom hva som venter Affeksjonsverdi i den internasjonale lanseringen, og hva deltagelsen i årets Oscar-sesong kan bety. God lytting!

Send us a textWhat if a thriller could do more than raise your pulse—what if it could help you see the early signs of harm and chart a path back to yourself? We sit with writer-producer Bella Bahar and actress Shiva Nagar to explore Deadly Vow, a film that starts with romance, swerves into danger, and refuses to look away from the realities of domestic abuse. The conversation moves from Cannes panels to late-night calls between collaborators, revealing how a story powered by empathy becomes a movement for awareness, healing, and change.Shiva brings us inside her character's world, honoring the emotional truth of someone who once chose love and family before facing control, isolation, gaslighting, and escalating threats. Bella shares why she left a medical career to produce a project rooted in real experiences, drawing on years of advocacy through Paradise Charity and a deep belief that cinema can connect audiences to the hard-to-name patterns many endure in silence. Together, we talk about how independent film actually gets made—finding investors at markets, delivering to festivals and distributors, and protecting sensitive material—while keeping the mission front and center.At the core is sisterhood: women sharing knowledge instead of competing for the spotlight, translating industry jargon, showing up to meetings, and holding space when the work gets heavy. We discuss the first steps for someone living in fear, the importance of recognizing warning signs early, and what it means to break the cycle for children who learn what “normal” looks like at home. You'll hear why storytelling creates empathy, how validation can be a catalyst for healing, and the simple, fierce reminder: you are not what happened to you; you are what you rise from.Deadly Vow arrives November 14. Join us to learn the signs, support survivors, and back a film made with courage and care. If this conversation moved you, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review—your voice helps more listeners find resources and hope.Thanks for listening!

Welcome back to Snafu with Robin Zander. In this episode, I'm joined by Kevan Lee and Shannon Deep, co-founders of Bonfire – a creative studio reimagining what it means to build brands, tell stories, and live meaningful lives. We talk about how Bonfire began as a "Trojan horse" – a branding agency on the surface, but really a vehicle for deeper questions: What does fulfilling work look like? How do we find meaning beyond our careers? And how can business become a space for honesty, connection, and growth? Kevan and Shannon share how their partnership formed, what it takes to build trust as co-founders, and how vulnerability and self-awareness fuel their collaboration. We explore their path from tech and theater to building Bonfire, hosting creative retreats, and helping founders tell more authentic stories. We also dive into how AI is changing storytelling, the myth of "broetry" on LinkedIn, and why transparency is the future of marketing. If you're curious about what's next for creativity, leadership, and meaningful work, this episode is for you. And for more conversations like this, stay tuned for Responsive Conference 2026, where we'll be continuing the dialogue on human connection, business, and the evolving role of AI. Start (0:00) How Bonfire Started (14:25) Robin notes how transparent and intentional they've been building their business and community Says Bonfire feels like a 21st-century agency – creative, human, and not traditional Invites them to describe what they're building and their vision for it Kevan's response: Admits he feels imposter syndrome around being called an "entrepreneur" Laughs that it's technically true but still feels strange Describes Bonfire as partly a traditional branding agency They work with early-stage startups Help with brand strategy, positioning, messaging, and differentiation. But says the heart of their work is much deeper "We create spaces for people to explore what a fulfilling life looks like – one that includes work, but isn't defined by it." Their own careers inspired this – jobs that paid well but felt empty, or jobs that felt good but didn't pay the bills Bonfire became their way to build something more meaningful A space to have these conversations themselves And to invite others into it This includes community, retreats, and nontraditional formats Jokes that the agency side is a Trojan horse – a vehicle to fund the work they truly care about Shannon adds: They're agnostic about what Bonfire "does" Could be a branding agency, publishing house, even an ice cream shop "Money is just gas in the engine." The larger goal is creating spaces for people to explore their relationship to work Especially for those in transition, searching for meaning, or redefining success Robin reflects on their unusual path Notes most marketers who start agencies chase awards and fame But Shannon and Kevan built Bonfire around what they wished existed Recalls their past experiences Kevan's path from running a publication (later sold to Vox) to Buffer and then Oyster Shannon's shared time with him at Oyster Mentions their recent milestone – Bonfire's first live retreat in France 13 participants, including them Held in a rented castle For a two-year-old business, he calls it ambitious and impressive Asks: "How did it go? What did people get out of it?" Shannon on the retreat Laughs that they're still processing what it was They had a vibe in mind – but not a fixed structure One participant described it as "a wellness retreat for marketers" Not wrong – but also not quite right Attendees came from tech and non-tech backgrounds The focus: exploring people's most meaningful relationship to work Who you are when you're not at your desk How to bring that awareness back to real life — beyond castles and catered meals People came at it from different angles Some felt misaligned with their work Others were looking for something new Everyone was at a crossroads in their career Kevan on the space they built The retreat encouraged radical honesty People shared things like: "I have this job because I crave approval." "I care about money as a status symbol." "I hate what I do, but I don't know what else I'd be good at." They didn't force vulnerability, but wanted to make it safe if people chose it They thought deeply about values – what needed to be true for that kind of trust Personally, Kevan says the experience shifted his identity From "marketer" to something else – maybe "producer," maybe "creator" The retreat made him realize how many paths are possible "Now I just want to do more of this." Robin notes there are "so many threads to pull on" Brings up family business and partnerships Shares his own experience growing up in his dad's small business Talks about lessons from Robin's Cafe and the challenges of partnerships Says he's fascinated by co-founder dynamics – both powerful and tricky Asks how Shannon and Kevan's working relationship works What it was like at Oyster Why they decided to start Bonfire together And how it's evolved after the retreat Kevan on their beginnings He hired Shannon at Oyster – she was Editorial Director, he was SVP of Marketing Worked together for about a year and a half Knew early on that something clicked Shared values Similar worldview Trusted each other When Oyster ended, partnering up felt natural – "Let's figure out what's next, together." Robin observes their groundedness Says they both seem stable and mature, which likely helps the partnership Jokes about his own chaos running Robin's Café – late nights, leftover wine, cold quinoa Asks Shannon directly: "Do you still follow Kevan's lead?" Shannon's laughs and agrees they're both very regulated people But adds that it comes from learned coping mechanisms Says they've both developed pro-social ways to handle stress People-pleasing Overachievement Perfectionism Intellectualizing feelings instead of expressing them "Those are coping mechanisms too," she notes, "but at least they keep us calm when we talk." Building Trust and Partnership (14:54–23:15) Shannon says both she and Kevan have done deep personal work. Therapy, reflection, and self-inquiry are part of their toolkit. That helps them handle a relationship that's both intimate and challenging. They know their own baggage. They try not to take the other person's reactions personally. It doesn't always work—but they trust they'll work through conflict. When they started Bonfire: They agreed the business world is unpredictable. So they made a pinky swear: Friends first, business second. The friendship is the real priority. When conflict comes up, they ask: "Is this really life or death—or are we just forgetting what matters?" Shannon goes back to the question and clarifies  Says they lead in different ways. Each has their "zone of genius." They depend on each other's strengths. It's not leader and follower – it's mutual reliance. Shannon explains: Kevan's great at momentum: He moves things forward and ships projects fast. Shannon tends to be more perfectionist: Wants things to be fully formed before releasing. Kevan adds they talk often about "rally and rest." Kevan rallies, he thrives on pressure and urgency. Shannon rests, she values slowing down and reflection. Together, that creates a healthy rhythm.  Robin notes lingering habits Wonders if any "hangovers" from their Oyster days remain. Kevan reflects  At first, he hesitated to show weakness. Coming from a manager role, vulnerability felt risky. Shannon quickly saw through it. He realized openness was essential, not optional. Says their friendship and business both rely on honesty. Robin agrees and says he wouldn't discourage co-founders—it's just a big decision. Like choosing a spouse, it shapes your life for years. Notes he's never met with one of them without the other. "That says something," he adds. Their partnership clearly works—even if it takes twice the time. Rethinking Marketing (23:19) Kevan's light moment: Asks if Robin's comment about their teamwork was feedback for them. Robin's observation  Notes how in sync Shannon and Kevan are. Emails one, gets a reply CC'd with the other. Says the tempo of Bonfire feels like their collaboration itself. Wonders what that rhythm feels like internally. Kevan's response  Says it's partly intentional, partly habit. They genuinely enjoy working together. Adds they don't chase traditional agency milestones. No interest in Ad Age lists or Cannes awards. Their goal: have fun and make meaningful work. Robin pivots to the state of marketing (24:04) Mentions the shift from Madison Avenue's glory days to today's tech-driven world. Refers to Mad Men and the "growth at all costs" startup era. Notes how AI and tech are changing how people see their role in work and life. Kevan's background  Came from startups, not agencies. Learned through doing, not an MBA. Immersed in books like Hypergrowth and Traction. Took Reforge courses—knows the mechanics of scaling. Before that, worked as a journalist. Gained curiosity and calm under pressure, but also urgency. Admits startup life taught him both good and bad habits. Robin notes  Neither lives the Madison Avenue life. Kevan's in Boise. Shannon's in France. Shannon's background Started in theater – behind the scenes as a dramaturg and producer. Learned how to shape emotion and tell stories. Transitioned into brand strategy in New York. Worked at a top agency, Siegel+Gale. Helped global B2B and B2C clients define mission, values, and design. Competed with big names like Interbrand and Pentagram. Later moved in-house at tech startups. Saw how B2B marketing often tries to "act cool" like B2C. Learned to translate creative ideas into language that convinces CFOs. Says her role often meant selling authentic storytelling to risk-averse execs. Admits she joined marketing out of necessity. "I was 27, broke in New York, and needed a parking spot for my storytelling skills." Robin connects the dots  Notes how Silicon Valley's "growth" culture mirrors old ad-world burnout. Growth at all costs. Not much room for creative autonomy. Adds most big agencies are now owned by holding companies. The original Madison Avenue independence is nearly gone. Robin's reflection  Mentions how AI-generated content is changing video and storytelling. Grateful his clients still value human connection. Asks how Bonfire helps brands tell authentic stories now that the old model is fading. Kevan's take  Says people now care less about "moments" and more about audiences. It's not about one viral hit—it's about building consistency. Brands need to stand for something, and keep showing up. People want that outcome, even if they don't want the hard work behind it. Shannon adds Notes rising skepticism among audiences. Most content people see isn't from who they follow, it's ads and algorithms. Consumers are subconsciously filtering out the noise. Says that's why human storytelling matters more than ever. People crave knowing a real person is behind the message. AI can mimic tone but not authenticity. Adds it's hard to convince some clients of that. Authentic work isn't fast or easily measured. It requires belief in the process and a value system to match. That's tough when your client's investors only want quick returns. Robin agrees  "Look at people's incentives and I'll tell you who they are." Shannon continues Wonders where their responsibility ends. Should they convince people of their values? Or just do the work and let the right clients come? Kevan says they've found a sweet spot with current clients. Mostly bootstrapped founders. Work with them long-term instead of one-off projects. Says that's the recipe that fits Bonfire's values and actually works. The Quarter Analogy (35:36) Robin quotes BJ Fogg: "Don't try to persuade people of your worldview. Look for people who already want what you can teach, and just show them how." He compares arguing with people who don't align to "an acrobat arguing with gravity – gravity will win 100% of the time." The key: harness momentum instead of fighting resistance. Even a small, aligned audience is better than chasing everyone. Kevan shares Bonfire's failed experiment with outbound sales: They tried reaching out to recently funded AI companies. "It got us nowhere," he admits. That experience reminded him how much old startup habits – growth at all costs, scale fast – still shape thinking. "I thought success meant getting as big as possible, as fast as possible. That meant doing outbound, even if it felt inauthentic." But that mindset just added pressure. Realizing there were other ways to grow – slower, more intentional – was a relief. Now they've stopped outbound entirely. Focused instead on aligned clients who find them naturally. Robin connects it to a MrBeast quote. "If I'm not ashamed of the video I put out last week, I'm not growing fast enough." He says he doesn't love the "shame" part but relates to the evolution mindset – Looking back at work from six months ago and thinking, I'd do that differently now. Growth as a visible, measurable journey. Robin shifts to storytelling frameworks: Mentions Kevan and Shannon's analogies about storytelling and asks about "the quarter analogy." Kevan explains the "quarter" story: A professor holds up two quarters: "Sell me the one on the right." No one can – until someone says, "I'll dip it in Marilyn Monroe's purse." That coin now has emotional and cultural value. Marketing can be the same – alchemy that turns something ordinary into something meaningful. Robin builds on that: You can tell stories about a coin's history – "Lincoln touched it," etc. But Kevan's version is different: adding new meaning in the present. "How do you imbue something with value now that makes it matter later?" Shannon's take: It's about values and belonging. "Every story implicitly says: believe this." That belief also says: we don't believe that – defining who's in your tribe. Humans crave that – community, validation, connection. That belonging is intangible but real. "Try selling that to a CFO who just wants ROI. Impossible — but it's real." Kevan adds: Values are one piece – authenticity is another. Some brands already have a genuine story; others want to create one. "We get asked to dip AI companies into Marilyn Monroe's purse," he jokes. The real work is uncovering what's true or helping brands rediscover it. The challenge: telling that story consistently and believably. Robin mentions Shannon's storytelling framework of three parts – Purpose → Story frameworks → Touch points. Shannon breaks it down: Clients usually come in with half-baked "mission" or "vision" statements. She uses Ogilvy's "Big Ideal" model: Combine a cultural tension (what's happening in the world) with your brand's best self. Then fill in the blank: "We believe the world would be a better place if…" That single sentence surfaces a company's "why us" and "why now." It's dramaturgy, really — same question as in theater: "Why this play now?" "Why us?" Bonfire's own version (in progress): "We believe the world would be a better place if people and brands had more room to explore their creativity." Kevan adds: it's evolving, like them. Robin relates it back to his own story: After selling Robin's Café, he started Zander Media to tell human stories. He wanted to document real connections — "the barista-customer relationships, the neighborhood changing." That became his north star: storytelling as a tool for change and human connection. "I don't care about video," he says. "I care about storytelling, helping people become more of who they want to be." Kevan closes the loop: A good purpose statement is expansive. It can hold video, podcasts, even a publishing house. "Maybe tomorrow it's something else. That's the beauty — it allows room to grow." Against the Broetry (49:01) Kevan reflects on transparency and values at Bonfire He and Robin came from Buffer, a company known for radical transparency — posting salaries, growth numbers, everything. Says that while Bonfire isn't as extreme about it, the spirit is the same. "It just comes naturally to invite people in." Their openness isn't a tactic – it's aligned with their values and mission. They want to create space for people to explore – new ideas, new ways of working, more fulfilling lives. Sharing their journey publicly felt like the obvious, authentic thing to do. "It wasn't even a conversation – just who we are." Shannon jumps in with a critique of business culture online Says there's so much terrible advice about "how to build a business." Compliments Robin for cutting through the noise – being honest through Snafu and his newsletter. "You're trying to be real about what selling feels like and what it says about you." Calls out the "rise and grind" nonsense dominating LinkedIn: "Wake up at 4 a.m., protein shake at 4:10, three-hour workout…" Robin laughs – "I'll take the three-hour workout, but I'll pass on the protein shake." Shannon and Kevan call it "broetry" The overblown, performative business storytelling on social media. "I went on my honeymoon and here's what I learned about B2B sales." Their goal with building in public is the opposite: To admit mistakes. To share pivots and moments of doubt. To remind people that everyone is figuring it out. "But the system rewards the opposite – gatekeeping, pretending, keeping up the facade." Shannon says she has "no patience for it." She traces that belief back to a story from college Producer Paula Wagner once told her class: "Here's the secret: nobody knows anything." That line stuck with her. Gave her permission to question authority. To show up confidently even when others pretend to know more. After years of watching powerful men "fail upward," she realized: "The emperor has no clothes." So she might as well take up space too. Transparency, for her, is a form of connection and courage – "When people raise their eyes from their desks and actually meet each other, that's power." Robin thanks Shannon for the kind words about Snafu. Says their work naturally attracts people who want that kind of realness. Then pivots to a closing question: "If you had one piece of advice for founders – about storytelling or business building – what would it be?" Kevan's advice: "Look beyond what's around you." Inspiration doesn't have to come from your industry. Learn from other fields, other stories, other worlds. It builds curiosity, empathy, and creativity. Robin sums it up: "Get out of your silos." Shannon's advice: "Make the thing you actually want to see." Too many founders copy what's trendy or "smart." Ask instead: What would I genuinely love to consume? Remember your audience is human, like you. And remember, building a business is a privilege. You get to create a small world that reflects your values. You get to hire people, pay them, shape a culture. "That's so cool, and it should make you feel powerful." With that power comes responsibility. "Everyone says it's about making the most money. But what if the goal was to make the coolest world possible, for as many people as possible?" Where to find Kevan and Shannon (57:16) Points listeners to aroundthebonfire.com/experiences.

Andy & Rich are one of adland's most brilliant and prolific teams, creating iconic award-winning work wherever they've worked. RKCR / Y&R, BBH, AMVBBDO, adam&eveDDB and Neverland have all benefited from their passion for big ideas, superbly executed. They've won awards wherever they've been, including 5 Grand Prix for their emotive ‘The Last Photo' campaign for CALM, placing them amongst the world's most awarded creatives at D&AD and Cannes.In a packed episode, we talked about The Times ‘Biggest For Sport' campaign and got a sneak peek into Andy's notebook and his sketches which were incredibly close to the finished work.For The Last Photo we discovered the inspiration for the big idea came in part from a Google search for ‘depression / suicide'. Every result had people sad, head in hands, in a dark place. The question was asked, what if people looked happy? Like a weight had been lifted, because they had decided to take the next step. This lead to the line ‘Suicide doesn't always look suicidal' and the concept of the last photo featuring real people. It's an incredibly moving story and a worthy follow up to the previous year's Project84 from Ant & Mike.We went into the wild with Whiskas, Feeding Your Cat's Instinct, which naturally won an outdoor Lion ;-)While for The Economist, for once we didn't discuss white headlines out of red, instead a thought provoking piece of DOOH on the subject of assisted suicide.Another important project was for Melanoma, more great crafting a simple graphic idea. And of course we found out how pot holes help create a great poster campaign for Pot Noodle.Gents, it was a total pleasure. So much amazing work for such a range of brands and projects, a tour de force in the great outdoors. Thank you so much.Thanks to our sponsorsBauer Media OutdoorView2FillSuper OptimalGAS Music

I denne podkastepisoden møter vi Joachim Trier til en lang og detaljert samtale om Affeksjonsverdi, med fokus på filmens tematikk, hvordan han gir visuell form til det han ønsker å si og hvilken utvikling han ser i seg selv som regissør etter seks spillefilmer på to tiår. Etter verdenspremieren i Cannes i mai og påfølgende kinolansering denne høsten, har Affeksjonsverdi blitt årets suverent mest omtalte norske film. Hundretusenvis av publikummere har strømmet til kinosalene (også i utlandet), og langvarige diskusjoner om filmen har ledet til flere interessante debatter – inkludert kritikken i Morgenbladet og meningsutvekslingen som fulgte. Faste lyttere vil huske at Joachim Trier har vært gjest hos oss på Filmfrelst tidligere – først i episode #102 om tidenes 10 beste filmer og deretter i episode #473 om Verdens verste menneske. Deltagelsen her på Filmfrelst er Triers eneste (eksklusive) norske podkastopptreden denne høsten. I dialog med Montages-redaktør Karsten Meinich reflekterer regissøren ikke bare rundt tematikk, form og sin reise om filmskaper, men åpner også opp om konkrete scener fra Affeksjonsverdi og hvordan ideene kom til liv i skriverommet med co-manusforfatter Eskil Vogt. Praten vår med Trier er todelt, og andre del publiseres i neste Filmfrelst-episode. God lytting!

Its high rating comes from praise for its intricate plot, stunning visuals, and strong performances by Kim Min-hee, Kim Tae-ri, and Ha Jung-woo. For comparison, other top Amazon originals include Manchester by the Sea (7.8/10), Sound of Metal (7.7/10), and The Big Sick (7.5/10).

It's Lobster's birthday, and what better way to acknowledge the toll aging takes on our bodies than to watch a movie about what goes wrong when we try to cheat the clock. From writer-director Coralie Fargeat comes the tale of Elizabeth Sparkle, a former sex symbol and acclaimed actress turned daytime tv aerobics instructor. When a mysterious treatment offers to restore her youthful appearance, the realization that beauty is only skin deep is only the first of many horrors that await. Starring Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley in dual roles, this 2024 release burst onto the scene at Cannes, where it was nominated for the Palme d'Or and Fargeat won Best Screenplay. After a wide release, which saw the film bring in $80 million through word-of-mouth social media marketing, it earned five Oscar noms, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actress for Moore, taking home the statue for Best Makeup & Hairstyling. But appearance isn't everything, so let's take a long hard look in the mirror and decide if we like what we see. Is The Substance all style, and no substance? Or is it the stuff that dreams are made of? And for Legends of Halloween, that means it's also the stuff of nightmares!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

A CMO Confidential Interview with Jim Lecinski, Clinical Professor of Marketing at the Kellogg School of Management, author, and former Google VP. Jim discusses why he believes marketers are often overly focused on using AI for productivity improvements versus business growth, the gaps between marketers and the C-Suite highlighted by recent Gartner research, and the difference between "big frontier models" and "shiny objects." Key topics include: why you should avoid "gray market AI", how to manage the 5 AI risks (privacy, accuracy, regulatory, personnel, and reputation), and the false precision that accompanies a focus on intermediate measures like Click Through Rate (CTR). Tune in to hear why he's not a fan of Cannes and how AI helped figure out a wedding invitation calling for "casual to semi-formal beach attire."What should CMOs actually do with AI right now—and how do you avoid chasing shiny objects? Mike Linton sits down with Jim Lecinski, Professor of Marketing at Northwestern's Kellogg School (and author of The AI Marketing Canvas and Winning the Zero Moment of Truth) to unpack the AI application layer: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Jim explains why CEOs-CFOs obsess over growth (not merely efficiency), how to reframe marketing dashboards around business outcomes, and his simple two-by-two for AI use cases (internal productivity vs. external value creation). We cover privacy, legal/regulatory, personnel, and reputational risks—and how to mitigate them—plus a pragmatic roadmap: center on a leading frontier model and layer vetted apps instead of stitching together fragile point solutions.

Läderstövlar, latex och piskor – därför är BDSM (fortfarande) en så populär modereferens

Idag ska vi bege oss in i en värld av läder, latex och piskor. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Eller, rättare sagt – vi ska ta en titt på hur modet samspelar med den subkultur i vilken den typen av fetischer förekommer, BDSM. Inte minst tack vare just mode. Modeskapare som Thierry Mugler, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Versace, Helmut Lang, Alexander McQueen och – förstås – Vivienne Westwood är bara några som har inspirerats av själva stilen, och på så sätt bidragit till att göra den mer mainstream. På årets upplaga av filmfestivalen i Cannes höjdes till exempel ett och annat ögonbryn längs röda mattan när Alexander Skarsgård stövlade in i skjorta, kostym, slips – och lårhöga läderboots. Stövlarna (som även hade vissa likheter med de vadarstövlar som hobbyfiskare bär) kom från Saint Laurent. Att stövlarna var en direkt blinkning till den film han var där att göra PR för, ”Pillion”, var det ingen tvekan om. Skribenten, författaren och fetischisten Anastasiia Fedorova recenserar Skarsgårds BDSM-stil. Det finns de som menar att John Sutcliffe borde vara en minst lika berömd modeskapare som Mary Quant. För även han förändrade modet under 1960-talet i London. Hör om den bortglömda läder och latex-pionjären. När Amanda Romares självbiografiska bok, ”Halva Malmö består av killar som dumpat mig”, nyligen kom ut som tv-serie på Netflix, så syntes Amanda Romare, med sitt entourage, på bilder från premiärfesten hållandes i en liten ridpiska. Hör den verkliga berättelsen om hur det kom sig att piskan blev hennes favoritmetod för att ragga killar.

Legendary journalist and author Elizabeth Becker, who has spent her career bearing witness to the frontlines of history, joins us to talk about her new book, You Don't Belong Here: How Three Women Rewrote the Story of War ,a riveting account of three trailblazing female correspondents who shattered gender barriers to cover the Vietnam War. The book tells the stories of Frances FitzGerald, Kate Webb, and Catherine Leroy, but Elizabeth herself reported from Cambodia and Vietnam in the 1970s. Her courage and insight—captured in You Don't Belong Here—help redefine how we understand both war and the craft of journalism. We'll also explore Becker's earlier, haunting book, When the War Was Over: Cambodia and the Khmer Rouge Revolution. Drawing on her harrowing reporting in Cambodia, Becker offers an account of the Khmer Rouge's genocide. She became one of only two Western journalists to meet Pol Pot—an experience that forever shaped her understanding of power, propaganda, and human tragedy. That historic meeting has now inspired the new feature film Meeting with Pol Pot (2024), directed by acclaimed Cambodian filmmaker Rithy Panh. The dramatization follows three Western journalists navigating a tightly controlled “Potemkin village” as the regime teeters on the brink of collapse and mass murder is underway behind the scenes. The film, which premiered at Cannes in 2024, brings Becker's gripping firsthand account to life and raises questions about truth, memory, and the moral responsibility of journalists. As the character based on Becker—Lise Delbo, played by Irène Jacob—observes, “Genocide is also about silence. You don't see anything, you don't hear anything.” Elizabeth Becker is a pioneering journalist and author. She began her career as a war correspondent for The Washington Post in Cambodia and later served as The New York Times' Senior Foreign Editor. She has covered politics, economics, and international affairs for decades and is a sought-after commentator and lecturer. Her books—award-winning, deeply reported, and beautifully written—have reshaped how we understand Vietnam, Cambodia, and the role of women in war.

Before 20-year-old Sam Raimi could make The Evil Dead, he had to convince investors that three friends from Michigan could pull off a horror masterpiece. Enter "Within the Woods," a short film that became the ultimate pitch; screened across Detroit until enough people bought in. The result? An initial $85,000 and a one-way ticket to a freezing, abandoned cabin in Tennessee with no heat, no plumbing, and 12 weeks of pure filmmaking chaos.Bruce Campbell's on-screen suffering was real—those bruises, cuts, and exhausted reactions weren't acting. The crew ended up living in the dilapidated cabin, inventing techniques and visual effects out of creativity and desperation. It was the epitome of low budget, inexperienced but passionate filmmaking.The Evil Dead could have easily disappeared into low budget horror movie obscurity, though. They struggled to find domestic distribution until Stephen King saw it at Cannes and called it "the most ferociously original film of the year." That single endorsement transformed everything.When it was released in the UK, it became the best selling VHS of the year in 1983. It was subsequently banned as the "number one video nasty" in the UK, and called too extreme for mainstream distribution. Thanks, Mary Whitehouse.The Evil Dead rewrote the rules. It proved indie horror could be artful, that gore could be kinetic poetry, and that a cabin in the woods could become the most terrifying place on Earth. It showed a generation of filmmakers that you don't need studio money to make something revolutionary; you just need vision, determination, and friends willing to suffer for the cause.I would love to hear your thoughts on The Evil Dead (1981) !Verbal Diorama is now an award-winning podcast!

In the conclusion of our two-part deep dive into TWIN PEAKS: FIRE WALK WITH ME, we trace the turbulent production, Cannes premiere, and long road to reevaluation that has led some to now call it David Lynch's greatest work. This episode covers the shoot itself — from on-set tension and cut scenes to the mysterious ‘Missing Pieces' — as well as the hostile reception the film received upon release and how its legacy has shifted dramatically in the decades since. Along the way, we explore how FIRE WALK WITH ME reframed the world of Twin Peaks, restored Laura Palmer's voice, and laid the groundwork for everything Lynch would explore next.
