“There're piles of skulls, which of course I appreciate” - Steve on the set design On this week's episode, Totally Cool Awesome 80s Month and the Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza pay tribute to the late, great Val Kilmer with a convo about the super-fun Ron Howard fantasy flick, Willow! How amazing are Warwick and Val together on screen? Isn't it refreshing that Davis was just allowed to put a shirt on and be this character, without getting covered in prosthetics or whatever else? Wouldn't things have been just fine in this movie without the Brownies flying around? And how amazing is that two-headed Siskel & Ebert monster? PLUS: Queen Bavmorda accidentally touches The Ooze and becomes Super Bavmorda (and is also played by Kevin Nash)! Willow stars Warwick Davis, Val Kilmer, Joanne Whalley, Jean Marsh, Patricia Hayes, Billy Barty, Mark Northover, Pat Roach, David Sternberg, Phil Fondacaro, Tony Cox, Kevin Pollak, Rick Overton, and Gavan O'Herlihy as Airk; directed by Ron Howard. Don't miss our next Worldwide Digital Event, happening Friday, June 20th at 9pm/eastern where we'll be LIVE talking about a total superhero all-timer, Superman II!

Shat the Movies: 80's & 90's Best Film Review

This week, Shat the Movies finally kneels before Zod—and listener Chris Lloyd—by reviewing Superman II (1980), the sequel that gave us Terrence Stamp's immortal sneer, Margot Kidder's bathrobe thirst, and Christopher Reeve's blue-eyed beefcake perfection. This episode dives headfirst into the Donner vs. Lester debate, asks how much ejaculate the Fortress of Solitude can handle, and questions Lois Lane's true intentions once Clark Kent drops the glasses—and the powers. Gene and Big D examine everything from Superman's bizarre morality and dubious revenge tactics to the wildly impractical Phantom Zone prison system. They also debate if memory-wiping kisses and cellophane logos deserve a place in superhero canon and why Perry White's newsroom features a threatening photo of Bill Cosby. Whether you're team “Mormon Dad Superman” or “Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex,” this episode delivers laughs, awkward truths, and more than a few inappropriate questions about Kryptonian sex. Plot Summary After banishing Kryptonian rebels General Zod, Ursa, and Non to the Phantom Zone, Superman continues his life as Clark Kent—until a hydrogen bomb explosion in space releases the trio. Landing on Earth, they gain Superman's powers from the yellow sun and quickly set their sights on global domination. Meanwhile, Lois Lane grows suspicious of Clark's identity, prompting him to reveal his secret and sacrifice his powers to be with her. But when Zod and his cronies begin wreaking havoc—and Lex Luthor joins their side—Superman must reclaim his abilities and protect humanity. The final showdown brings the villains to the Fortress of Solitude, where Superman uses brains over brawn to save the world, while also redefining the meaning of romantic boundaries with a memory-erasing kiss.

We're tight on subjects but deep on time this week. It's just Kevin and Andrew and they are covering the series finale of Andor, Episode 5 of Season 2 of The Last if Us, and Super/Man The Christopher Reeve Story. That episode kicks off with the guys discussing The last 6 episodes of Andor and everything that led up to this incredible finale. It's almost heartbreaking that a show this good had such a short run, but at least it never faltered. Here is a show that is pure cinema and even if you aren't a Star Wars fan, there is a lot of great character depth to fall in love with here. Easily one of the best things produced in the Star Wars universe to date! Next up, the guys head to Seattle for Day 2 of this season The Last of Us, There are a lot of crazy moments in this one and we see our heroes reverse roles and even see Ellie come over to the Dark Side. The guys discuss everything this episode delivers on and what's to come, all without giving Andrew too many spoilers. We are barreling towards the finale at this point! The show closes out with a fascinating discussion on the Christopher Reeve documentary, Super/Man. The guys really dive in on how this is less a documentary about a man who played a comic book character and more about a man who nearly lost his life and then gave so much back to the world. It does a fantastic job of not painting him as perfect as Clark Kent but still respects his legacy. It's an absolute must watch. As always, thank you for watching.

Ironheart promises a scrappy, community-driven story that contrasts Tony Stark's privilege with Riri Williams' Chicago roots. The new Superman trailer revives the Christopher Reeve optimism while dropping viewers into a fully populated DCU. AI voice clones (like Fortnite's Darth Vader) are hype-worthy but need tighter safeguards before brands unleash them. Richard Sparks' New Rock series mixes MMO mechanics, 80s fantasy, and laugh-out-loud camaraderie—perfect for fans of Ready Player One and Willow. Memorable Quotes “Andor proves real rebellion relies on janitors jamming door locks, not just Jedi with lightsabers.” – Frank “Riri Williams is Iron Man if Tony grew up on the South Side and had to build a Mark I from junkyard scraps.” – Frank “AI Vader sounded amazing…until the Internet taught him four-letter words.” – Jonathan Call to Action Love the show?

News for the Heart talks with Tom Campbell on Ch-Ch-Changes: Making New Choices! Tom and I delved into the crucial role of embracing change for personal growth. I shared my own experience of eviction, highlighting how even challenging events can be viewed as opportunities. Tom reinforced this by emphasizing that change is an inevitable and vital part of life, preventing stagnation. He pointed out that our attitude towards change significantly shapes our experience, suggesting that a positive mindset can transform adversity into a catalyst for development, referencing inspiring examples like Christopher Reeve.The discussion further explored how maintaining a positive attitude is key when navigating life's inevitable shifts and uncertainties. Tom stressed that change often brings opportunities for learning and growth, regardless of external circumstances. He argued that our choices and outlook, rather than wealth, determine our quality of life. Both Tom and I agree on the importance of remaining open-minded and avoiding negative judgments, as even difficult situations can lead to unexpected positive outcomes and new paths. We concluded by underscoring that embracing change with optimism is essential for personal development and overall well-being.We're getting to the Heart of What Matters!

This week, we're paying tribute to the late, great Gene Hackman the only way we know how — by diving headfirst into Superman (1978), a movie that somehow manages to be majestic, weird as hell, and pure magic all at once. From the second those flying blue credits hit the screen, we were five years old again (but with stronger opinions and more alcohol). We talk Brando's space-lawyering, Gene's glorious villain energy, and how Christopher Reeve is so handsome it physically hurts.   Nick, Anthony, and Elise get into the good, the goofy, and the gloriously impractical — including Superman's extremely casual approach to time travel, the questionable ethics of letting Pa Kent die, and the sheer number of times this movie just shouts “SCIENCE!” and hopes for the best. We also pour one out for literally everyone else in this movie who has passed on (RIP to half the cast), while somehow ending up in a very detailed discussion of trains, tights, and what counts as a sneaky kiss.   It's messy, it's reverent, it's unhinged in all the right ways — just how we like it. Whether you've seen Superman a hundred times or haven't watched it since VHS, we promise this episode will make you laugh, maybe tear up a little, and definitely wonder why Superman's spaceship didn't have a bathroom.   So grab a drink, fire up that John Williams score, and join us as we fly awkwardly backward through time, straight into the heart of a classic. We're doing it for Gene — and also for the bit. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078346/

Once known around the world as Superman, Christopher Reeve became a true symbol of strength and resilience after a tragic accident in 1995 left him paralyzed from the neck down. Rather than retreat from the public eye, Reeve transformed his adversity into a powerful mission—advocating for spinal cord injury research and championing the rights of people with disabilities. Through the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation, he became a leading voice for change, working to improve access to medical care, technology, and independence for millions. His unwavering determination sparked national conversations about inclusion, accessibility, and what it truly means to be a hero. In this video, we reflect on Christopher Reeve's extraordinary journey—his advocacy, public speaking, directing, and continued impact long after his acting career. His famous words still echo: “A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.” Reeve's story reminds us that disability isn't the end—it's the beginning of a new chapter filled with hope, purpose, and lasting legacy.

Michael Oldroyd - Comedy Podcast

Mike talks about everything from personal updates to politics, comedy, and deep thoughts on life. He starts off with the cold weather, and how Valentine's Day also marks his rent's anniversary (and his conception date). He also touches on the Super Bowl, from Seal's commercial to Kanye's, and recognizes Black History Month before diving into Apple's massive $500 billion investment in the U.S. The podcast also includes the market's recent dip, AI's fast evolution, with Deep Seek AI, Grok3's take on Musk, ChatGPT, and Copilot making waves. More topics include Trump's executive orders and Trump Coin, including some of the biggest issues—immigration, Guantanamo Bay's expansion, the Israel-Palestine conflict, and Trump calling Zelensky a dictator. There's also Elon Musk's whatever you wanna call it, lawsuits pushing back against his/their moves, and a government whose bureaucracy looks like what Musk calls balls of worms. Meanwhile, media networks are shifting, with MSNBC leaning more right, and Trump likely aiming to cut NPR's funding, which would force it to find alternative ways to survive. Mike also reflects on Jimmy Carter's legacy beyond politics. Mike admits that he's been using ChatGPT for dating advice—but not for comedy writing. AI is supposed to serve us, not the other way around, like droids in Star Wars. Speaking of which, he's looking forward to Andor 2, enjoyed Gladiator 2, and is excited for the new season of Daredevil. On the entertainment side, LA fires were raging and seem to be done. The comedy world has been eventful, with SNL's 50th anniversary bringing some standout moments—Zach Galifianakis' Kanye bit, and Steve Martin and Martin Short keeping it fresh while steering clear of Trump and Elon. Kanye's Super Bowl commercial was also worth a mention. Mike talks about writing a recent SNL sketch about Elon, discusses a recent Kill Tony appearance in St. Louis, and catching a bit of Ali Wong's new special. In his comedy journey, he discusses talking to a company about sports commentating and considering cruise ship gigs. But the main focus remains keeping his comedy an art and avoiding the trap of overextending for social media or chasing algorithms. Artistic autonomy, both financially and creatively, is something he values deeply.Looking back on 2024, he realizes he missed a few things—some shows, speaking engagements, and even a celebrity golf tournament that I somehow didn't perform at (seriously, what happened there?). I also did a podcast with Libbie Higgins in 2024, and worked on a sketch in NYC with Dom Leonelli.On a personal level, he's been reflecting on the notion that what we do today echoes in eternity. He shares some Gasperilla 2025 stories, talks about a moment when he almost flew to NYC just for fun, and recounts a guy in a minivan trying to race him in his Tesla. There's also a car accident story in there somewhere. He wraps up with some inspiration from Christopher Reeve and a reminder that life, much like weightlifting, is about pushing forward—you either drown or you fight your way back up, sometimes after you drown.Tune in and let's dive in.

This is it! The exciting conclusion! The finale of the live script reading of the never-seen first draft of the unmade 5th Christopher Reeve Superman movie that was performed in Los Angeles on November 12th, 2024. The stage reading of the script was made with actors. The audio is presented here like an old-fashioned radio play. It stars Ray Carsillo as The Narrator, Jonathan Cahill as Clark Kent / Superman, Kenna Roubicek as Lois Lane, Jamal Henderson as Brainiac, David Pinion as Kosmo David Kocher as Jimmy Olsen / Ensemble Barry Papick as Perry White / Ensemble Veronica Warner as Lyla / Ensemble Bill Kates as Max - Dur / Ensemble and Caitlin Morris as Martha Kent / Ensemble. It was directed by Ray Carsillo and produced by Ilya Salkind, David Kocher, and Ray Carsillo.—story by Ilya Salkind, Mark Jones, and Cary Bates Screenplay by Mark Jones and Cary Bates. The story so far: Superman was “killed” in Part 1 (Episode 413) and was transported to the Bottle City of Kandor. Lois Lane, desperate to find out what happened to Superman, gets transported to the bottled city as well. Superman V was in the script stage that was drafted when Alexander and Ilya Salkind reacquired the rights to Superman. They attempted to restore the franchise to greatness by making Superman V. Salkind met with Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder to discuss a plan to make the 5th movie, but ultimately, it was never made. Superman is created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. Based on characters from DC. This Presentation was funded by the Kaplan-Loring Foundation.

The story so far: After Superman IV bombed, Alexander and Ilya Salkind reacquired the rights to Superman. They attempted to restore the franchise to greatness by making Superman V. Salkind met with Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder to discuss a plan to make the 5th movie but ultimately, it was never made. After the events of Part 1, the story continues in this episode.

Back in 1966, a group of cops chased a mysterious glowing object across two states, and what happened next wrecked their lives and left everyone wondering—was it really a UFO, or just another government cover-up?Darkness Syndicate members get the ad-free version. https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateInfo on the next LIVE SCREAM event. https://weirddarkness.com/LiveScreamInfo on the next WEIRDO WATCH PARTY event. https://weirddarkness.com/TVIN THIS EPISODE: Some believe them to be ghosts, others feel they are creatures or even humans from a different dimension. Still others believe they are demonic entities. Whatever the truth about what they are, the one thing everyone agrees about is that an encounter with a shadow person is undeniably terrifying. (Terrifying True Stories Of Shadow People) *** The townsfolk of Beaver County, Pennsylvania saw something very strange in 1966 – and now, so many decades later, it's just as much of a mystery as it was the day the encounter occurred. (The Unsolved Sighting in 1966) *** Some are beloved favorites like “The Wizard of Oz”, others you may never have seen, like Atuk. Some are dark in tone like “Poltergeist”, or heroic like the first Superman movie starring Christopher Reeve. But one thing all of these films and the others I'll share in this episode have in common is that they are all supposedly cursed.
