“Criminally underrated” is what one Letterboxd critic called Irving Franco's second feature, ADAM THE FIRST (2024). The film stunned me. The logline: “after finding a list of names and addresses, 14-year-old Adam sets out across the country to meet a series of men who could be his father.” It's a hero's journey, well-acted, and the last few scenes will crush you. Irving also scored the film, which you don't see very often. So why is it misunderstood? We talk about it in this episode with this two time feature writer-director-composer, Irving Franco. In this episode, Irving and I discuss:Does he check his Letterboxd reviews?How he got started in filmmaking;The lost art of DVD commentaries;His scrappy start to CHEERLEADER (2016) and how he was able to jump straight to a feature without making a short or proof of concept;Did his sales background help him with his pitching and his ability to raise funds for his first film?What he took out of his first film to making his second feature, 8 years later;Should you crowdfund at the end of the project?The inspiration for the writing of his films and the joys of including a hero's journey in a film;The casting of David Duchovny and what that means for indie filmmakers;The range required by Oakes Fegley and how he saw that in casting;Did he know that he had something great?The rarity of writer-director-composer; what should indie filmmakers know about scoring their film;The ending of ADAM THE FIRST and the power of a forceful conclusion;What's next for him and how we hopefully don't have to wait another 8 years between features, along with love for NYC (of course).Irving's Indie Film Highlight: GOOD TIME (2017) dir. by Benny Safdie & Josh Safdie Links:Follow Irving On InstagramSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

"I may as well be my best cheerleader, because the world's not gonna. It's not like the world is out to get you, it's just, as we say, there's so many people putting their hat in the ring for all these jobs, that it's just the way it is. It's just the way it is. Like you might not get seen. But if you translate that to something about you being wrong, that energy just chips away at you. The next one is not going to be as good."Today's episode was ripped directly from one of our 10,000 NOs Working Actors Community weekly zooms where Matt addresses the challenges that face our members. Today, we discuss staying in the right mindset. Understanding that rejection is part of the game. If we can reframe each rejection and understand that it means we are one step closer to our "yes" than we have a much better shot at not giving up and achieving our goals. We have to be our own cheerleader and infuse positivity in order to buoy us when things may be harder than we might want in the moment. 10,000 NOs is here to inspire you and help you realize you are not alone if you're battling to overcome rejection in your career or life.So, if you're an actor, writer or filmmaker and you like what you hear in the snippets from our Working Actors Community zooms enough to want to be a part of it, CLICK HERE.Remember, “failure” is just opportunity in disguise, and you can flip the script to make your setbacks serve you.SHOW LINKS:10,000 NOs: THE BOOKSUBSCRIBE TO OUR (WEEKLY) NEWSLETTERFOLLOW MATT ON SOCIALFIND OUT HOW YOU CAN JOIN THE WORKING ACTORS COMMUNITY

0:00–15:00 — Cold open, the Wheel spins, and cursed parrots + creepy woods The rules of the game: rack up points to reach the “Tower of Truth,” fall short and it's back to the “Land of Lunacy.” First spin delivers a wild mini-doc: opium-addicted parrots raiding poppy fields in India—farmers can't stop them, and the birds crash hard when harvest ends. Sam lays out a “don't celebrate anyone's death” rant (framed around the online pile-on over Charlie Kirk), pointing at how elites love when we fight each other. Then we shift spooky: a Southern-Gothic “Granny's rules for the woods” reading—don't follow lights, don't answer your name, and if the dog won't enter, neither should you. 15:00–30:00 — Feel-good pet city → hot-button “Enhanced Games” Live chat asks about an over-the-counter aid for autistic kids; Sam promises to circle back before the end. Wholesome palate cleanser: a guy who's spent two years building a miniature town for his pets—pure internet serotonin. Big pivot: the “Enhanced Games”—a no-testing, PED-friendly league with track, swimming, and weightlifting; they even tout a record that beats an Olympic gold medalist's time. We kick around the ethics and the rubber-neck appeal. 30:00–45:00 — Viral 9/11 cheer routine in Texas + “UFO disclosure” talk We watch the jaw-dropper of the night: a high-school 9/11 cheer routine (complete with Pentagon gags and a smoke machine). The crowd reaction is… complicated, and so is ours. That segues into a guest clip arguing we're at the “finish line” of UFO disclosure thanks to recent legislation and hearings—skepticism included. 45:00–60:00 — 27 Club lore → Moon orbs → “they're selling our crap back to us” The Wheel lands on the “27 Club”: Brian Jones to Amy Winehouse, numerology riffs, and whether the pattern is myth, math, or something darker. Space weirdness break: a backyard telescope video shows a flashing red light with orbs circling the Moon—cue uneasy vibes and Moon-truth jokes. Sam cracks that Big Pharma is literally “selling our crap back to us,” after a clip about, uh, very bodily-based treatments—you get the idea. 60:00–75:00 — Sam's Corner mailbag, Satanism/Saturnism, and MKUltra/Stargate Follow-up for the dad in chat: the supplement name shared is “leucovorin” (spelled out on-air so parents can note it). A former “satanic organization” insider clip claims an evolving “agenda” through 2027—our hosts react and relate it to broader cultural patterns. Occult detour: “Satanism is Saturnism,” symbolism breakdowns (the goat, magic squares, pop-culture sigils). Then we hit MKUltra and the Army's Stargate remote-viewing program—mind control vs. psychic espionage, and what the government actually studied. 75:00–90:00 — Victory lap to 3,500 live → one last jaw-dropper → sign-off We crest 3,500 live viewers; Sam wonders if we just did our greatest episode ever, then vows to get off an “unholy number” on the wheel and into Sam's Corner. Final short: a protest-style clip that starts as “we won't be silenced” and swerves into a provocative chant—ending the show on a spicy note. Curtain call and thanks—what a ride.

We pursue a discussion on the gender blender in dress, hairstyle, body movements, etc. It's not so much the feminization of the male, as it is the softening and emasculating of the modern male. What's the remedy?

It's Friday, September 5th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Museum honors victims of genocide against Jews in Romania The Romanian city of Iași hosts the Pogrom museum, which was created to honor the victims the largest genocide against the Jews that took place on Romanian territory, preceding the deportations to Transnistria and the concentration camps at Auschwitz, reports Evangelical Focus. The museum was opened in the former headquarters of the Romanian police on June 29, 2021, the 80th anniversary of the killing of over 13,200 Jews in the yard of that building. In a story which aired on Alfa Omega TV, a Romanian broadcaster, the reporter explained, “Jews from the ages of 18 and up, were summoned, lured into a trap by being told to come and receive a pass for free movement. Romania had entered the war, and they could not move freely without that pass. However, they were met by Romanian and German soldiers who mercilessly machine-gunned them.” Before the genocide of the Jews, they brought in several Jews to dig the pits. The mass graves in which thousands of those Jews are buried can be visited in a field close to the museum. In addition to those who were executed, over 4,000 Jews were loaded into the so-called “death trains.” Initially, they put 40–50 people in a wagon, but the stationmaster refused to “waste wagons.” So, he packed in up to 100–120 people per train, standing pressed together. In the midst of this tragedy, there were “Christians from various denominations and even a colonel from the Romanian army, who saved Jews in those days.” DC sues Trump over National Guard The District of Columbia sued the Trump administration on Sept. 4 over its deployment of the National Guard to the nation's capital, reports The Epoch Times. The lawsuit alleges that the deployment violates the district's semi-sovereign status known as Home Rule, whereby the city has jurisdiction over its own affairs but Congress can override its decisions. The lawsuit states, “In so doing, [President Donald Trump] has run roughshod over a fundamental tenet of American democracy—that the military should not be involved in domestic law enforcement.” In a statement to The Epoch Times, the White House criticized the lawsuit and defended the deployment of the National Guard. White House Deputy Press Secretary Abigail Jackson said, “President Trump is well within his lawful authority to deploy the National Guard in Washington, D.C., to protect federal assets and assist law enforcement with specific tasks. This lawsuit is nothing more than another attempt—to the detriment of DC residents and visitors—to undermine the President's highly successful operations to stop violent crime in DC.” Trump asks Supreme Court to quickly take up tariffs case The Trump administration took the fight over tariffs to the Supreme Court on Wednesday, asking the justices to rule quickly that the president has the power to impose sweeping import taxes under federal law, reports American Family Radio News. The government called on the court to reverse an appeals court ruling that found most of President Donald Trump's tariffs are an illegal use of an emergency powers law. It's the latest in a series of Trump administration appeals to a Supreme Court he helped shape, and one that is expected to put a centerpiece of the president's trade policy before the justices. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit left the tariffs in place for now, but the administration nevertheless called on the high court to intervene quickly. Cheerleader charged with delivering, harming, & hiding her baby A University of Kentucky cheerleader is facing multiple charges after police found her dead newborn infant hidden in a closet, wrapped in a towel, and concealed inside a black trash bag, drawing reactions from activists on both sides of the abortion debate, reports the Christian Post. Laken Snelling, age 21, was arrested on Sunday and charged with abuse of a corpse, tampering with physical evidence and concealing the birth of an infant, according to the Lexington Police Department. During an appearance in court on Tuesday, Snelling pleaded not guilty. The American Association of Pro-Life OBGYNs said, "This heartbreaking and tragic incident is all the more painful as Kentucky has a safe haven law that allows parents to surrender their children, no questions asked.” Indeed, Kentucky's Safe Infants Act allows parents to leave a newborn baby under 30 days old at a police station, fire station, an emergency medical services provider, or a staffed place of worship without fear of prosecution or allegations of neglect.  In a video posted on her Instagram on Tuesday, pro-abortion writer Jessica Valenti was upset that police and the media in Kentucky said that Snelling had delivered an infant. Listen. VALENTI: “I really need reporters to stop using the word ‘baby' or ‘infant' until they actually know what happened in this case, because we don't know yet. We only know what police are telling us.” Oddly enough, Valenti believes that if a woman has a miscarriage that it somehow diminishes the value of the baby, and therefore, no one should call her baby a baby. In Psalm 139:13-14, Scripture quite clearly affirms the humanity of the child, no matter how early in gestational development and no matter the cause of death. King David wrote, “For You, [God], created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise You, [God], because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” Christian song “Whisper and the Wind” amassed 23 million streams And finally, you might recognize the name Bodie Kuljian from the 22nd season of The Voice back in 2022 when he won second place. The married 32-year-old singer-songwriter, who is also the father of three young children, signed with Provident, a Christian record label.  No Skips is his first full-length album, which releases today. The project comes after a string of chart-topping singles, millions of streams, and Dove Award nominations.  In fact, his song entitled  "Whisper and the Wind" amassed more than 23 million global streams, and won Bodie the grand prize in the International Songwriting Competition. Take a listen to an excerpt from this song that honors God as the One who fulfills us and guides us. (audio of song's opening) “When I'm feeling my feet are tired From running so hard for miles You are the air I really need When life is a rollercoaster And I start to lose composure You're in the drops and in between And every time I'm stuck in indecision Losing my vision You close the distance And I don't need to see it to believe it For my whole life, You've been that all I've needed And I, I've felt You in the fire and the rain So help me learn to listen when You're speaking 'Cause love is not a secret that You're keeping And I, I've felt You when walls are caving in Yeah, You're with me in the whisper and the wind” (Check out the rest of the lyrics) Isaiah 41:10 says, “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, September 5th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

There's really no other way to explain it. Trump, Republicans and their media cheerleaders promised for years that the Epstein files were the mother of all deep state scandals. But now? Never mind, it's just a hoax, they say. They're covering up for men who raped underage girls. No other explanation makes sense. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
