When an actor opens their mouth to sing in a movie, chances are high that the voice you hear will be their own. Even in music biopics, movie stars without much singing experience regularly go to great lengths to impersonate the most beloved vocalists of our time. Why not simply play Johnny Cash or Bruce Springsteen's actual recordings, the reasons why we care about them in the first place? When the world is full of beautiful singing voices, why force Pierce Brosnan to bray his way through Mamma Mia? What you hear when an actor unhinges their jaw is a matter that Hollywood has been negotiating since the dawn of sound. So in this episode, we'll learn about the “ghost singers” of classic Hollywood musicals, find out why they went extinct, and why today's music biopics so often fudge the music. Then we leave Hollywood for Bollywood, where the rise of the celebrity “playback singer” shows what can happen when good singing is the highest priority. In this episode, you'll hear from Slate's pop music critic Jack Hamilton; musicologist Dominic Broomfield-McHugh, editor of The Oxford Handbook of the Hollywood Musical; Stephen Cole, co-author of a memoir by the ghost singer Marni Nixon; Isaac Butler, longtime Slate contributor and scholar of American acting; and Nasreen Munni Kabir, who has written several books on Hindi cinema and curates Indian films for the UK's Channel 4.

Stage is set, and we're gunna go right over the top..with Cliches, claims and predictions that are gunna be hard to cop.Don't despair, don't lose hope there'll be smatterings of intelligent chatBut its the Grapple Baby and its finals…and that is mutha fuckin that This week our heroes wax lyrical about the Rugby League Worlds very own T1000…Penrith can't be bargained with, they can't be reasoned with. they don't feel pity, remorse, or fear. And they absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are dead!Can they get past the Prodigal Ponies on Sunday in a triumphant return to arvo finals footy? Most likely not as Madge will no doubt make some eyebrow raising, boneheaded, flummoxing selection changes when he should simply abide by the age old Rugby League adage-“too many hamstrings spoil the broth”.Melbourne with the likely return of the Diver and little Papi seem certain to book a spot at the dance for 47th time under Bellyaches rein of terror, but standing in their way are a bunch of teeth bearing Selachimorpha, playing at a level and with a patience seldom seen in the genus since 2016. Two GF replays from the last decade. Prelim weekend never gets any better.Speaking of species specific encounters, the felines take centre stage at the G on Saturday.One mob hoping to slink through, scratch a post or two, piss on someone's jacket and settle down to a plate of Whiskas whilst paying no one any attention. Another looking to tear their way through a jungle, rip to shreds anything that dares to make contact and create a dynasty of the early 2000's variety. Our heroes never doubted them.Wallabies to bury the AB's at Eden Park, Europe to go B2B in the Ryder Cup and as we've known for at least 3 weeks now, The Colts are gunna win the Super Bowl.No Broader problem but definitely plenty of Grappling to be done, just like Buzz Grappling with who his next faux feud needs to be with.Hey Liver Lips.... Come Get some. Grapple out.
The Buccaneers will be in their creamsicle uniforms on Sunday when they play the Jets. Is this going to be a Todd Bowles revenge spot? Aaron Glenn has been using a lot of corny cliches like ‘big ships turn slow' and ‘it's not instant coffee'. Boomer said you have to be lucky enough to have a great QB to be successful in the NFL. Anthony in Belleville called in and talked about his Chargers and Gio's old mullet. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the sounds of the Bills beating the Dolphins. Tua threw a pick late in the game on the Bills 21 yard line. Tyreek Hill talked about being 0-3. The Yankees shutout the Orioles 7-0 without hitting a HR. Jonah Tong struck out 8 as the Mets beat the Padres and Pete Alonso had another HR. Clayton Kershaw announced that this will be his last season. In the final segment of the hour, Gio said everyone seems to be turning on the Eagles. Al Michaels seemingly took a shot at them on the broadcast last night. The NFL told officials to watch the Tush Push because they have been offside in the past. Gio's wife asked for a Super Bowl prediction and he said Eagles/Ravens. Boomer thinks the Packers are the team to beat in the NFC and the Ravens in the AFC.

Introduction: Why This Episode Matters Have you ever heard a Christian saying that sounds powerful—but left you wondering, is that actually in the Bible? In this episode, we unpack two of the most popular phrases floating around church culture: “God whispers and Satan shouts.” “God helps those who help themselves.” You'll discover what Scripture really says about how God speaks, why these clichés can be misleading, and how to develop biblical discernment in a world full of noise.

Adam Hurrey is joined on the midweek Adjudication Panel by Charlie Eccleshare & Nick Miller. On the agenda: the bonus Tom Cruise punditry we all wanted to hear, the traditional opening bell for the England/World Cup news cycle, tracking down the Richard Keys commentary from an early-90s management sim, the unofficial Cristiano Ronaldo classical music night, Dan Walker mixes up Baroque composers with generic Brazilian footballers and the club who are most obviously going to sign Aleksandar Mitrovic this summer. Meanwhile, the panel decide the point at which a game can be described as "end to end" and discover whose name has been uttered the most in Cliches pod history: Keys or Gray?

The new exorcism film The Ritual, starring Al Pacino and Dan Stevens, is based on the famous 1928 exorcism of Emma Schmidt, which also partially inspired The Exorcist. The Ritual is touted as more realistic and meticulously researched than most exorcism films, and it does seem to portray the rite of exorcism accurately (as the title indicates, most of the film is focused on the ritual itself). The film avoids many of the worst pitfalls of exorcism movies, such as fascination with the glamor of evil, sadism, etc. It is a Catholic-approvable treatment of the subject in that it avoids theological error, the liturgy is accurate, and God is clearly shown to be more powerful than demons. However, the film is still sensationalistic, not because its extraordinary demonic manifestations are fabricated, but because they are excessively centered at the expense of more interesting and edifying aspects of the real-life case. Those details which would have made the treatment unique and thought-provoking are too often filed down to fit the genre's cliches or to avoid alienating a non-Catholic audience. The Ritual will be in theaters starting June 6.

The pod welcomes Jacob Hawley and Jake Farrell - aka The Screen Rot Podcast - for the latest edition of Mesut Haaland Dicks, as they choose their six personal fascinations and irritations of football. Among their selections are the criteria for being a "proper football club", judging anonymous 5-a-side teammates by the obscurity of the kit they're wearing, referee bias when the ball is being kept in the corner and the modern scourge of cross-sport tribute celebrations. Meanwhile, the epic search for the commentary sampled in the theme tune to Gazzetta Football Italia comes to a glorious conclusion.

What is marriage? What does the Bible teach about its nature? Is the Old Testament at odds with the Christian conception of marriage as covenantal union between one man and one woman?

On the agenda: Prince William's absurdly highly-acclaimed "punditry", the Premier League club that would produce the most uneventful in-house documentary, the criteria for a team to "roar back" from a losing position, the self-proclaimed inventor of the "pre-assist" and the Cliches pod makes its TikTok debut.

Sometimes skeptics allege that in the place where accurate testimony is most needed, i.e. the Resurrection of Jesus, we find the most blatant discrepancies and hopeless contradictions. But are they correct?
