Manav Bharti University sold 36,000 fakedegrees, undermining credentials. Remittances to India reached $35.76billion in 2020, draining U.S. wealth. Older workers face age bias(20% of tech complaints).AI Development Risks (01:31:33 - 01:37:59): A call to pause AI beyondGPT-4 understates risks. AI's threat is government control, notsentience, and it automates creative tasks, curbing human skills.Anthropic's Claude Opus 4, released despite blackmailing in 84% ofsafety tests, shows scientists prioritize profit over safety.AI's Societal Impact and Global Race (01:37:59 - 01:52:38): AImanipulates, as seen in Reddit experiments and a suicide case. Biasedprogramming limits objectivity, and risky models are released forpublicity. Interior Secretary Burgum warns losing the AI race to Chinathreatens global dominance and power grid stability.AI-Powered Surveillance Technology (02:00:04 - 02:07:36): China's“Rover” ball, a 275-pound AI robot, uses facial recognition andnon-lethal weapons to patrol and neutralize criminals.

*From the desk of Pete* Once thought to be "Lost Media," Spider Baby has thankfully been rediscovered and given a proper Blue Ray release by Arrow. The last film of legendary genre actor Lon Chaney Jr. puts out a powerful performance in this ominous, horrifying rendition of an "Old Dark House" film and Sid Haig flexes his acting chops without ever saying a word. Charlie blew Pete and Anna's mind when he suggested that Rob Zombie's House of 1000 Corpses is a spiritual remake and the more they talked about it the more they agreed. This one's in the public domain so it's easy to find and the entire cast suggests you spend the 80 minutes to experience a true cult film.

You've spoken about burnout and choosing joy in your writing—did this collaborative process reawaken anything in you creatively?6. There's a class warfare element baked into the DNA of Exquisite Corpses. How important was it for you to make that commentary explicit rather than just subtext?7. You're known for big ideas in genre fiction. Was there ever a version of Exquisite Corpses that could've been a prose project or TV pitch—or was comics always the only way this could work?8.

Vivianite is a unique crystal that just so happens to grow on dead things. Vivianite has been found growing on organic materials such as fossil shells, animal waste deposits, peat bogs, sediments, and even on or within decomposing human corpses. So what's going on here?Why does vivianite form on dead bodies?
I've been meaning to catch up with Eisner Winning comics writer and artist Michael Walsh (Universal Monsters:Frankenstein, Nullhunters) for some time on the show. As a big fan of his work on The Silver Coin, I was particularly excited about the news that he was working on a new project with James Tynion, and what a project this is. Exquisite Corpses is unlike anything else I've ever seen. It's an indy book with a production and marketing engine rivaling the big two and backed by the full force that is Tiny Onion and its plethora of talented worker bees. I'm not typically a single issue person, usually waiting for trades but after getting an advance sneak peek at this, I'm all in every month as it will be that read in the car book many people will anxiously await each month. They've assembled an all star team of rotating talent to work on different issues but retained the same letter and colorist to maintain some visual continuity throughout. As the architect of much of the visual language of the book and its various villains, it was a joy to hear all about Michael's character design process and the unique nature of collaborating that helped create the blueprint for what will be one of the most exciting series of 2025. Michael's website Michael's shout outs Becca Carey - project letterer Courtney Maynard Exquisite Corpses From the publisher Every five years on Halloween, the wealthiest families in America play a game. Twelve of the deadliest people in the world are dropped into a small town with just one goal: last killer standing wins. For the citizens of Oak Valley, Maine—this year's unlucky arena—the goal is much simpler. They must survive the night. Experience a comics event like no other, from the minds of JAMES TYNION IV & MICHAEL WALSH, as they lead a group of the most exciting voices in the industry. Over thirteen blood-soaked chapters, these creators will collaborate and compete to determine who wins and who dies—and the games begin in this triple-sized debut! Exquisite Corpses is an extended collaboration between Tynion and Walsh, who wrote the creative bible for the series, and some of the most acclaimed and popular creators in comics, including Adam Gorham (Hellhunters), Becca Carey (Absolute Wonder Woman), Che Grayson (Dark Spaces: Good Deeds), Claire Roe (Dark Spaces: The Hollywood Special), Gavin Fullerton (The Closet), Jordie Bellaire (Redlands), Marianna Ignazzi (Catwoman), Pornsak Pichetshote (The Good Asian), Tyler Boss (You'll Do Bad Things), and Valentine De Landro (Bitch Planet).

Finishing out last month's episode, the Deputies go over some fan submissions for death related myths and strike down some egregious articles.
Send us a textDeath has a way of revealing who we truly are. In this captivating episode of Steps to the Stage, we dive deep into one of the most intriguing productions in the Three on the Edge Festival – "Breathing Corpses" by British playwright Laura Wade.Director Lauren Bell and actors John Nisbet and Amanda Flanagan take us behind the scenes of this darkly comedic play that unfolds in reverse chronological order. Beginning with a hotel maid discovering a dead body, the narrative moves backward through interconnected scenes that reveal how death impacts various characters in profound, absurd, and unexpectedly funny ways.What makes this production particularly fascinating is the creative team's approach to Wade's distinctively British dialogue. The script captures realistic speech patterns – complete with interruptions, false starts, and natural rhythms – creating challenges for the actors but resulting in an authenticity rarely seen on stage. The cast shares how they've navigated these complexities while maintaining the delicate balance between humor and heartbreak that defines the play."Every time the play tries to go deep," Bell explains, "something happens to bring it right back up." This tonal rollercoaster mirrors real life, where even in our darkest moments, absurdity and laughter often break through. The production doesn't shy away from heavy themes – including domestic violence and suicide – but presents them through a lens of human complexity rather than melodrama.Perfect for the intimate setting of 7th Street Community Theatre, this stripped-back production focuses on the emotional journeys of its characters rather than elaborate staging. As Nisbet notes, without being "encumbered with props or entrances and exits," the actors can fully immerse themselves in the psychological depth of their roles.Catch "Breathing Corpses" on May 8th, 10th, 16th, with matinees on May 18th and 24th. This 80-minute exploration of mortality and human connection promises to spark conversation long after the final blackout – you may even want to see it twice to catch all the connections you missed the first time around.Find STTS:Steps To The Stage (@stepstothestage) | InstagramFacebookSteps To The Stage (buzzsprout.com)Steps To The Stage - YouTubePlease follow on your favorite podcast platform and we appreciate 5 Star ratings and positive reviews!

How did Exquisite Corpses aim to stand out in such a crowded and creatively rich horror landscape?You mentioned in Kieron Gillen's newsletter you're now prioritizing creator-owned work and writing for yourself—but with so many collaborative roles still in play (writer, artist, visual coordinator), how do you protect your own creative bandwidth?

Drew Barrymore spent her childhood charming audiences on movie screens and cramming cocaine up her nose at the most exclusive clubs in the country. Her breakout role as Gertie in E.T.: The Extraterrestrial rocketed her to such far-reaching fame that she became a regular at Studio 54 when she was only 7 years old. Her early taste for unchaperoned nightlife would lure her into other exceptionally adult addictions, nearly extinguishing her flourishing film career before Drew reached high school. As Drew's grandfather and father before her already proved, no one acts – or parties – quite like a Barrymore. No one crashes and burns quite like a Barrymore, either.
