This week we look back at the incredible career of one of Hollywood's most celebrated filmmakers. A guy who directed one of the greatest coming-of-age films ever made, one of the greatest romantic comedies ever made, one of the greatest mockumentaries ever made, one of the greatest courtroom dramas ever made, and one of the greatest psychological thrillers ever made. And he never won an Academy Award. We are talking about Rob Reiner.Check us out on...Twitter @TSMoviePodFacebook: Time SensitiveInstagram: @timesensitivepodcastGrab some Merch at TeePublicBig Heads Media 

Hoy comparto contigo este que es el error 19 de 21 de esta serie especial. Y el pensamiento del que quiero hablar hoy es este: "No, no, no. A mí hablarme bonito no me sirve. Yo necesito disciplina." Y quiero invitarte a cuestionar esta idea. Porque muchas de nosotras hemos vivido creyendo que la manera de lograr resultados es siendo más duras con nosotras mismas. Exigiéndonos más. Presionándonos más. Criticándonos más. Y sí, quizá eso funciona por un tiempo. Pero también cansa. Agota. Y muchas veces termina alejándonos exactamente de lo que queremos crear. Porque una cosa es ser responsable. Y otra muy distinta es vivir peleada contigo misma. Y aquí está la diferencia que me parece importante hacer. No se trata solamente de hablarte bonito. No se trata de repetir afirmaciones frente al espejo y ya. Se trata de observar desde qué espacio estás tomando acción. Porque no es lo mismo hacer ejercicio desde: "Tengo que hacerlo porque estoy fatal." Que hacerlo desde: "Quiero cuidar de mí." No es lo mismo elegir una comida desde el castigo. Que elegirla desde el respeto. No es lo mismo vivir desde la exigencia. Que vivir desde la responsabilidad. Y sí, los resultados también son diferentes. Por eso hoy quiero invitarte a practicar este pensamiento: "Elijo moverme desde el amor y no desde la exigencia." Respira. "Elijo moverme desde el amor y no desde la exigencia." Porque cuando soltamos ese estrés innecesario que genera la pelea constante con nosotras mismas... descubrimos algo muy poderoso: Que sí podemos crear nuestra mejor versión. Y además disfrutar el camino. Concretamente, hoy te invito a cambiar el: "Yo necesito más disciplina." Por un: "Elijo moverme desde el amor y no desde la exigencia." Y observa qué cambia. Si quieres llevar a un siguiente nivel todo lo que comparto en el podcast y hacerlo vida, mantente al pendiente porque pronto podrás ser parte del más bonito espacio para lograrlo.  Por lo pronto sígueme en instagram https://www.instagram.com/monicasosacoach Con mi cariño, Tu coach, Mónica Sosa.

On this episode of Remainders we watch the 2008 movie The Wrestler. Part of our Mickey Rourke double-feature, The Wrestler represents the apex of Rourke's career. Possibly too well cast as a man struggling with his past demons, The Wrestler is a perfect example of how tragedy can be comforting. We'll see how it compares to Rourke's performance in Barfly and where it stands in his filmography.Other topics include Aronofsky's career, tragicomic movies, physical media and used CD stores, Spielberg and Disclosure Day, thoughts on Obsession, Kurt Russell's first ever fan expo convention, and nu metal horror.Songs of the WeekYou Should All Be Murdered by Another Sunny DayCalifornia Blue by Roy Orbison and The Royal Philharmonic OrchestraMarry Me by Nightmare of YouRemainders Jukebox PlaylistWebsiteFacebookInstagramYouTubeTwitter

He is well-known across the UK as a fierce defender of free speech. He is a regular writer for The Spectator and The Critic. On today's show, Stuart discusses the UK government's decision to ban under-16's from social media sites, societal rage - what's causing it? the attack on activist Young Bob in Manchester and Stuart's work with Justice For Innocent Men Scotland. As many as one thousand men may have been wrongfully convicted of sexual offences because judges ruled that potentially exculpatory evidence was inadmissible. https://www.jimsscotland.org/https://www.facebook.com/stuart.waiton/https://scottishunionforeducation.substack.com/about

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail, and Anthropic.Greetings, you curiouser and curiouser Herle Burly-ites! It's been a year of economic anxiety and trade upheaval in Canada with our largest trading partner applying tariffs, making threats, and taking a far more adversarial stance, in advance of the upcoming CUSMA negotiation.We're experiencing an economy with a very low growth rate, an affordability crisis, and industry disruption in steel, autos, and aluminum.I was particularly curious to get a fulsome and thoughtful Conservative take on the Carney approach, so we're joined by Adam Chambers, Conservative MP and Trade Critic, and Vice-Chair of the House Standing Committee on International Trade. Adam acknowledged the realities of dealing with a difficult American government, but that a deal that could advantage the Canadian economy might still be possible. We discuss his view that Canada's fiscal position is a reckless one that puts the country in long-term jeopardy, and much more.Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.

Hava Mendelle defies easy categorisation. Openly gay and proudly Jewish, she is a fifteen-year Australian Army veteran, emergency department nurse, published author, and co-founder of Minority Impact — a coalition of Australian minorities united in their opposition to Islamic radicalism and far-left extremism. She writes for The Spectator Australia, The Times of Israel, and The Jewish Independent, and has been making waves on social media for her unflinching commentary on antisemitism, the activist left, and the slow erosion of Australian national identity.In this conversation with Quillette's Zoe Sankey, Hava traces a remarkable personal journey — from an orthodox Jewish childhood and boarding school in Israel, to climate activism and Marxist study groups at university, to her current role as one of Australia's most clear-eyed critics of the movements she once moved in. They discuss the red-green alliance, the activists behind the Gaza flotilla, the radicalisation of the Australian Greens, why the United Nations deserves far more scepticism than it receives, and what October 7th changed — for Hava personally, and for Jewish Australians more broadly Learn more about your ad choices.

Critic of screens large and small, Wenlei Ma joins Philip Clark on Nightlife to review the latest to watch. 

A Sudanese man has been arrested in north Belfast following what can only be described as an attempted beheading — a horrific, graphic attack captured on video. Meanwhile, the BBC initially buried it beneath the headline: "Man taken to hospital with serious injuries after Belfast stabbing." Julia Hartley-Brewer is joined by Henry Hill, Political Editor of The Critic, who explains why journalists strip out the most critical details of violent crimes — and why the Public Order Act is being weaponised to protect hypothetical racists over real victims.Reform UK Deputy Leader Richard Tice joins live as the Belfast attacker's identity is confirmed on air. He pulls no punches: the public has a right to know the full history of this individual — now, not in two years' time after a court case. He also reacts to the bombshell Telegraph revelation that £28 billion in taxpayers' money was handed to terrorist groups including ISIS, hostile states such as Russia, and Chinese military-linked companies — through foreign aid and COVID relief loans — which was then actively covered up by the Conservative government.Lord Daniel Hannan, Director of the Institute of Economic Affairs, connects the dots: a bloated, unaccountable, ideologically captured state that selects in favour of dangerous migrants, funds our enemies abroad, and then buries the evidence. He also takes aim at Kemi Badenoch's pledge to scrap the public sector equality duty — welcome, he says, but the real rot runs far deeper than any single piece of legislation.Julia Hartley-Brewer broadcasts on Talk from Monday to Thursday, 10AM to 1PM. Available on YouTube and streaming platforms, along with DAB+ radio and your smart speaker. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Visiting Critic and Home of the Year expert Siobhán Lam went panning for gold in the Wicklow mountains.

This week, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz kick off the summer months with a new installment of the Critics at Large advice series. Listeners' questions run the gamut: a high-school economics teacher seeks films for his students which aren't set in the world of finance; a caller from Iran looks for cultural works to help endure periods of extreme uncertainty; and two friends on the cusp of college graduation ask for recommendations to guide them in their next chapter. “Art is not a thing separate from our troubles or from our awareness of the insane contingencies of life,” Cunningham says. “It's meant as a companion and a response to those. I think that's shining through in some of these questions.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Sorry to Bother You” (2018)“My Architect: A Son's Journey” (2003)“Les dites cariatides” (1984)“Twenty Minutes in Manhattan,” by Michael SorkinThe photography of Eugène AtgetThe music of the Notorious B.I.G., Heavy D, Fat Joe, and Big Pun“Sentimental Education,” by Gustave FlaubertVáclav Havel's “Audience”“The Best of Everything,” by Rona Jaffe“How to Murder Your Life,” by Cat Marnell“Becoming a Centenarian,” by Calvin Tomkins (The New Yorker)“This Old Man,” by Roger Angell (The New Yorker)“Tabula Rasa,” by John McPhee (The New Yorker)“Kramer vs. Kramer” (1979)“Divorcing,” by Susan TaubesElena Ferrante's Neapolitan novels“Ghost World,” by Daniel Clowes“Frances Ha” (2012)“Asparagus” (1979)Roger Payne's “Songs of the Humpback Whale”“Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction,” by J.

How is the tool of Artificial Intelligence shaping the writing of fiction? Is AI emerging as more than just a potentially handy aid to an author—and, ominously, more like an actual author?

He is the author of The Program Era: Postwar Fiction and the Rise of Creative Writing (Harvard University Press, 2009) and Everything and Less: The Novel in the Age of Amazon (Verso, 2021). As our conversation shows, McGurl is a nuanced, reasoned voice on an emotive subject that all too readily lends itself to apocalyptic or pollyannaish pronouncements.

You are joining us for another perennial favorite here on Time Sensitive. At the end of nearly every episode, we ask our guest hosts a simple question: What are you into? Even though this sounds like a sexual invitation (it mostly isn't), we ask our guests to focus on a movie, book, album, game, podcast, or pop culture subject they are currently enjoying. But no one ever asks Sam and Ian what they are into, so we have decided to devote a whole episode to our own pop culture proclivities.Check us out on...Twitter @TSMoviePodFacebook: Time SensitiveInstagram: @timesensitivepodcastGrab some Merch at TeePublicBig Heads Media

The Parent Playbook: Navigating the "Sideline Culture" https://teachhoops.com/ In a 30-year coaching career, you learn that you aren't just coaching the 15 players on your roster; you are managing a 45-person ecosystem that includes parents, guardians, and extended "inner circles." Navigating parent behaviors is less about "conflict resolution" and more about Environmental Design. Most parent friction occurs in the Information Vacuum—the space between what you see in the gym every day and what the parent hopes for at the dinner table. To build a championship culture, you must be the Chief Transparency Officer, ensuring that the "Standard" is so clearly communicated that there is no room for a counter-narrative to grow. The greatest tool in your belt is the Mandatory Buffer. Emotions are highest in the 15 minutes following a tough loss. The Standard: No parent-coach communication regarding game strategy or playing time until 24 hours have passed. The Protocol: Require that all concerns be addressed via a scheduled meeting rather than a "sideline ambush." This moves the conversation from the emotional (the heat of the game) to the logical (the film and the data). As we often discuss in the world of analytics, "The numbers don't have feelings." When a parent challenges playing time, move the conversation away from "opinion" and toward Objective Efficiency. The "Truth Room" Metrics: If a player is struggling with their Effective Field Goal Percentage ($eFG%$) or has a high turnover rate in transition, show the data. The Probability of Success: Use the stats to explain the "Why." For example: "Our team's defensive rating improves by $12%$ when we have this specific rotation on the floor." It is very difficult to argue with a $95%$ confidence interval. Parent anxiety usually stems from a lack of Role Definition. If a player thinks they are a "Green Light" shooter but the coach sees them as a "Defensive Specialist," the parent is caught in the middle. The Solution: Conduct mid-season "Role Reviews." Give the player (and by extension, the parent) a clear list of the three things they must do to earn more minutes. The Transformation: You shift the parent from being a "Critic" of your decisions to being a "Partner" in their child's development. They now know exactly what "success" looks like in your system. You cannot coach a kid hard if you haven't made a deposit into their parent's Trust Account. The Strategy: Make it a point to send a "Positive Pulse" text or email to a parent when their child does something that doesn't show up in the box score—diving for a loose ball, cheering for a teammate, or showing "Next Play" speed after an error. The Impact: When you eventually have to have a "Hard Truth" conversation about playing time, the parent listens because they know you see the whole child, not just the stat line.
