Tonight's triple feature tracks the unlikely mainstreaming of one of American cinema's most hostile voices: John Waters. Born in Baltimore in 1946, Waters grew up inside the postwar, Greatest Generation moral order he would spend his career attacking—suburban respectability, sexual repression, and enforced normalcy. These three films mark his evolution from punishment to precision.Polyester (1981) is Waters' first real stab at the mainstream, a vicious parody of 1950s suburban melodrama starring Divine. Complete with Odorama scratch-and-sniff cards, it's less entertainment than indictment—cruel, confrontational, and openly contemptuous of middle-class virtue.By Hairspray (1988), Waters shifts strategy. Set in early-'60s Baltimore and starring Ricki Lake, the film uses classical filmmaking and musical structure to smuggle Waters' politics—body acceptance, integration, anti-bigotry—into a broad audience. It's his Trojan horse.Cry-Baby (1990) completes the arc. Starring Johnny Depp and notably lacking Divine, it reframes 1950s greaser culture with historical accuracy, restoring the era's sexual panic and moral hysteria that nostalgia like Grease erased. More coherent, more humane, and more mature, it's Waters finally understanding rather than punishing his past.You don't have to like John Waters—but these films matter because they remember American culture correctly.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59
0:00 - Your Denver Football Broncos are headed to the AFC Championship, and they'll host the New England Patriots. But they'll be doing it without Bo Nix, after he suffered a season-ending injury late in OT. The thrill of victory. The agony of defeat. How are we feeling this morning, Broncos Country?16:11 - The losers of Buffalo, New York need to stop crying. All we've heard since Saturday night is a stream of tears thundering louder than Niagara falls. Stick a cork in it, Buffalo. YOU GET NOTHING. YOU LOSE. GOOD DAY SIR! Turn that microscope inwards and realize that you didn't lose because of the refs.32:28 - With Bo Nix 's ankle injury, Jarrett Stidham will start for the Broncos in the AFC Championship. He doesn't need to be a world beater! Just keep the team afloat. Basically, make the throw you need to, and do the opposite of what CJ Stroud did yesterday.

The Untuned Bell sound installation in Radhusplassen in Oslo. This 1.4-ton bell (anno 1949) was removed from the bell tower of Oslo City Hall because it was no longer in tune with the other 48 bells. The artist found the bell lying silent on the ground and restored its voice. From its new home on Radhusplassen, here outside the City Hall, the bell can once again interact with the bells in the tower. By putting your foot on a Cry Baby wah pedal nearby, you can activate the untuned bell. Recorded in September 2025 by Cities and Memory.
The films of John Waters were so nasty, so shocking ,and so subversive that shock author William Burroughs called him "The Pope of Trash." But from his beginnings in X-rated art films to cult classics like Hairspray and Crybaby, John Waters created and cultivated his own peculiar niche in film while nurturing the unique company of players who became a family of outcasts.

Ding Dong, die Hex ist tot! Oder doch nicht? Nach WICKED ist nun auch WICKED: FOR GOOD (oder eben TEIL 2) im Kino gelandet und verspricht genauso hart (oder eben erfolgreich) einzuschlagen wie sein Vorgänger. Das will natürlich besprochen werden. Zumindest von Bea und Schlogger, von Schröck eher weniger, aber weil er sich nun beide Teile kurz hintereinander reingezogen und generell eine spezielle Meinung zu Musicals hat, gehts so richtig rein ins Reich von Oz, um über Hexen, Zauberer, Scharlatane, Manipulatoren oder geflügelte Affen zu reden. Und natürlich auch über das Phänomen WICKED, über die Verbindungen oder Unterschiede zu DER ZAUBERER VON OZ, über die Optik und Technik, über den Gesang, die besten wie auch die fürchterlichsten Momente, über Ariana Grande oder Cynthia Erivo, über Daniels Lieblingsszene, über G.I. JOE - DIE ABRECHNUNG, auch über ein paar SPOILER oder warum es irgendjemand für eine gute Idee, Michelle Yeoh singen zu lassen. Dabei wird es dann auch allgemeiner um Musicals gehen, wenn Schröck unter anderem von LES MISÉRABLES, CRY BABY oder DER KLEINE HORRORLADEN (LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS) schwärmt oder Bea und Schlogger über das berichten, was sie zuletzt gesehen haben. Nämlich EIN AMERIKANER IN PARIS und WEST SIDE STORY (das Original, wobei das Remake auch noch mal zu Wort kommt). Und Simsalabim: schon sind wieder fast 90 Minuten vorbei, bei denen wir Euch nun eine zauberhafte Zeit und viel Spaß wünschen. Vielleicht wird ja am Ende auch noch gesungen. Im Sinne aller hoffentlich auch gut. Aber bleibt bitte ansonsten so gesund wie gut drauf. Und denkt immer dran: Es ist wie daheim. Keep defying gravity. Bye.

"I may be a drape, but I love your granddaughter. And if that's a crime, I'll stand convicted, ma'am." We watched "Cry-Baby", directed by John Waters, with our friend and rockabilly expert Janelle, and there's nothing the matter with our faces - we've got character! Listen, John Waters movies are camp, trash, queer, drag, cinema classics, and "Cry-Baby" is a prime example. Johnny Depp broke out of TV jail (it was the late 80's/early 90's) and jumped onto the big screen in the first of his quirky character choices playing Wade "Cry-Baby" Walker. Cry-Baby and his gang of "drapes" are played by the coolest group of weirdos this side of "Pink Flamingos." We spend a good deal gushing over how cool the gang is, including a sizable moment dissecting Traci Lords' voluminous hairdo. Waters' knack for casting is ever-present, featuring the likes of Susan Tyrell, Iggy Pop, Joe Dallesandro, Troy Donahue, and the feature debut of one Patricia Hearst. Get transported with us to Baltimore of the early 1960's and watch Johnny Depp in 501's (and a good portion in just tighty-whities) strut around with juvenile delinquents, squares, and a cast of colorful outcasts.

Don breaks down Donald Trump's latest economic meltdown, this time over tariffs, his self-proclaimed “favorite word.” What started as a one-minute ad from Canada quoting Ronald Reagan spiraled into a full-blown diplomatic crisis. Now, trade talks are dead and prices are soaring while SNAP benefits are ending, and millions of Americans are paying the price for Trump's fragile ego. This isn't policy, it's performance.

Released just months after her death in 1970, Pearl captures both the wild, unfiltered energy and the heartbreaking vulnerability that made Janis a once-in-a-generation voice. We explore how she poured her soul into songs like “Cry Baby,” “Mercedes Benz,” and “Me and Bobby McGee,” crafting a record that feels both triumphant and tragically final.Support the showBrowse the 33/24 Archives: Check out the backroom!

President Crybaby Melts Down Again While America Suffers | Karel Cast 25-119 Jimmy Kimmel is back on ABC—but instead of focusing on America's real crises, the President is throwing another tantrum. From the U.N. stage to cable news, he's still whining about an election he lost years ago while ignoring soaring grocery prices, housing insecurity, healthcare failures, and global unrest. Karel asks: how much longer can MAGA followers defend a leader who only cries for himself, never for the victims of war, poverty, or disease? While inflation rises and families struggle, the President plays victim—proving once again that he's unfit to lead.

On January 6th, of 2020, tonight's guest, Ernie Pack, had his first Bigfoot sighting while he was in a cemetery, on top of Mitchell Hill, in Jefferson County, Kentucky. He was doing a paranormal investigation there, at the time, with his wife, Denise. The area where they'd chosen to do their investigation is known by locals for being haunted. In fact, there's a legend about the area that stemmed from people hearing what they thought was a baby crying in forests around that area. The night Ernie and Denise had their first Sasquatch sighting, they were trying to locate the grave of a spirit they'd been interacting with in that area. At that time, neither Ernie nor Denise were sure if Sasquatch were even a reality. That was about to change and change in a big way. You see, after what happened to them that night, both Ernie and Denise are almost obsessed with investigating Sasquatch. Fast forward almost 6 years since the night Ernie and Denise had that experience and they've had multiple other sightings and encounters. On tonight's show, Ernie is going to tell you about them. We hope you'll tune in and listen to him do that.Ernie and Denise founded a paranormal research team called Packman Paranormal. If you'd like to visit the Packman Paranormal Facebook page, which we hope you will, please visit…https://www.facebook.com/packmanparanormal/Tonight's second guest, Wendell Burroughs, founded Foukelore Bigfoot Investigations. His interest in Sasquatch didn't really take of until he was 13 or 14 years old. He'd been squirrel hunting when he heard vocalizations he'd never heard before by a creek. Fast forward to 2014. Wendell had traveled to Fouke, Arkansas to look for the Boggy Creek monster. One of the nights Wendell and his team were there, they had just come around a bend on one of the back roads in Boggy Creek, when they saw a big, black, hairy creature that was walking on two legs cross the road and run into the woods. That was Wendell's first sighting but it wasn't his last one. He's had multiple sightings and we hope you'll tune in to listen to him share them on tonight's show.If you've had a Sasquatch sighting in Arkansas that you'd like to report to Wendell, at Foukelore Bigfoot Investigations, please visit the Foukelore Bigfoot Investigations Facebook Page…https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090678214926To visit the Arkansas Bigfoot Cartel Facebook Page, please go to…https://www.facebook.com/groups/546090742639237/If you've had a Bigfoot sighting and would like to be a guest, on the show, please go to https://MyBigfootSighting.com and let us know.

What happens when we swap our desperate (conditioned) grasping for certainty for a curious(ly awkward) embrace of confusion? This episode invites you into a radical reframing of confusion—not as weakness or failure, but as an appropriate, even necessary response to our rapidly changing world. Cultural messaging tells us confusion should be avoided, fixed, overcome. That if we're confused, somehow we're failing life! Abso-f$%king-lutely not.Through personal stories, practical guidance, poetry, and more, let's illuminate how confusion can lead us to clarity, self-trust, and connection when approached more consciously. You'll learn to differentiate between conscious confusion and unconscious rumination, with tools to lovingly disrupt those unconscious loops. Releasing certainty and embracing conscious confusion is a practice to disorient us from the systems designed to keep us good consumers and bad rebels.Learn more about Dana & Leah's Fall Equinox retreat in Joshua Tree!

This year's Budapest Pride was banned in March under the Orbán government's contentious “child protection” law. Demonstrators were threatened with hefty fines for participating, and the government said it would employ facial-recognition technology to identify and potentially prosecute those who turned out to take part at the march on 28 June. Did the ban work? Not in the slightest. In fact, more people than ever in the 30-year history of Budapest Pride showed up to celebrate their rights as LGBTQ+ human beings. The massive Pride march brought a glimmer of hope to some Hungarian citizens, including this week's guest, writer Krisztián Marton. We spoke with Krisztián about the lead-up to the event, the thrill of being on the ground last Saturday, and what might be next for Hungary, now that Viktor Orbán finally has a formidable challenger in Péter Magyar. We also chatted with Dominic's husband, Thomas Lamers, a philosopher and dramaturg who hit the streets for us, mic in hand. (Thanks, Thomas, we owe you!) Krisztián Marton is a screenwriter and novelist. You can follow him on Instagram here and read an excerpt in English of his Margó Prize-nominated novel Crybaby here. You can donate to Thomas's fundraiser to pay some of the fines that may be incurred by Pride attendees here.

This week on Shat the Movies, we're shedding a single tear for Cry-Baby (1990)! Johnny Depp stars in John Waters' rockabilly musical that's equal parts parody, punk, and pure teen rebellion. From electric chairs to tear-streaked serenades, it's a weird, wild ride through '50s nostalgia with a twisted grin. Tune in as we dive into this cult classic and ask: was Cry-Baby cool or just confused? Plot Summary:Cry-Baby (1990), directed by John Waters, is a rockabilly musical comedy set in 1950s Baltimore, starring Johnny Depp as Wade “Cry-Baby” Walker, the leader of a group of rebellious “Drapes.” When he falls for straight-laced “Square” Allison (Amy Locane), their romance sparks a clash between their two social worlds. Packed with campy humor, catchy tunes, and Waters' signature subversive style, the film parodies teen musicals while celebrating the outsiders who refuse to conform.

Writer, director, actor, and artist John Waters has been making avant-garde cinema since the 1960s. His movies have pushed boundaries and shocked audiences with their wild characters and surreal storylines, even as they offer piercing insights into popular American culture and society. While he experienced mainstream crossover success by the 1980s and into the 2000s, and has been embraced by many in the entertainment industry, John Waters is inherently an outsider –- and he wouldn't have it any other way. He is a unique, visionary queer voice in American cinema. So for one of our 2025 Pride specials, the Great Pop Culture Debate looks back on 8 of The Pope of Trash's most notable movies and attempts to name the Best John Waters Film. Movies discussed: Hairspray (1988), Serial Mom (1994), Pink Flamingos (1972), Cry-Baby (1990), Female Trouble (1974), Mondo Trasho (1969), Polyester (1981), Pecker (1998). Join host Eric Rezsnyak, GPCD panelist Jonny Minogue, and special guests Erin Marlow from the It's a Fandom Thing podcast, and Joshua Grannell AKA Peaches Christ, alternative drag icon and host of the Midnight Mass podcast, as they discuss 8 of the most notorious John Waters films.

Writer, director, actor, and artist John Waters has been making avant-garde cinema since the 1960s. His movies have pushed boundaries and shocked audiences with their wild characters and surreal storylines, even as they offer piercing insights into popular American culture and society. While he experienced mainstream crossover success by the 1980s and into the 2000s, and has been embraced by many in the entertainment industry, John Waters is inherently an outsider –- and he wouldn't have it any other way. He is a unique, visionary queer voice in American cinema. So for one of our 2025 Pride specials, the Great Pop Culture Debate looks back on 8 of The Pope of Trash's most notable movies and attempts to name the Best John Waters Film. Movies discussed: Hairspray (1988), Serial Mom (1994), Pink Flamingos (1972), Cry-Baby (1990), Female Trouble (1974), Mondo Trasho (1969), Polyester (1981), Pecker (1998). Join host Eric Rezsnyak, GPCD panelist Jonny Minogue, and special guests Erin Marlow from the It's a Fandom Thing podcast, and Joshua Grannell AKA Peaches Christ, alternative drag icon and host of the Midnight Mass podcast, as they discuss 8 of the most notorious John Waters films.

Episode 94 — Frank Pagano: From Glen Rock to the Broadway PitIn this must-hear episode of the Broadway Drumming 101 Podcast, I sit down with legendary drummer and percussionist Frank Pagano — a true veteran of both the concert stage and the Broadway scene.Frank's career reads like a who's who of the music industry. He's played with icons like Bruce Springsteen, Bette Midler, Al Green, and Phoebe Snow. On Broadway, his credits span from Leader of the Pack and The Who's Tommy to Smokey Joe's Cafe, Cry-Baby, The Pirate Queen, Good Vibrations, Fosse, Big River, Saturday Night Fever, and more. What you'll hear in this episode:* How a 4th-grade music demo sparked Frank's lifelong love of drums.* Growing up and gigging with the Vivino brothers (yes — that Jimmy Vivino).* What it was like studying percussion at Manhattan School of Music and later with Joe Morello and Justin DiCioccio.* His unusual path to Broadway — having a chair before ever subbing.* The real reason he pivoted to Broadway full-time: marriage, fatherhood, and health insurance.* Wisdom on subbing: play their show, not yours.* Lessons from playing percussion alongside killer drummers like Brian Brake.* Touring vs. pit life — the physical grind of the road versus the stability of Broadway.* How working with artists like Laura Nyro and Bruce Springsteen shaped his perspective on artistry and professionalism.* Advice for drummers who want to make it in New York: “Play with everyone. Play everything. Be early. Be likable. Be ready.”Frank's reflections on time, groove, and what it really means to be musical are some of the best insights I've heard on this show. This episode is for any drummer who wants to play on Broadway — and stay there.Watch more episodes on YouTubeListen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcastsLearn more about Frank Pagano: https://www.frankpagano.com/bioClayton Craddock founded Broadway Drumming 101, an in-depth online platform offering specialized mentorship and a carefully curated collection of resources tailored for aspiring and professional musicians.Clayton's Broadway and Off-Broadway credits include tick, tick…BOOM!, Altar Boyz, Memphis The Musical, Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill, Ain't Too Proud – The Life and Times of The Temptations, Cats: The Jellicle Ball, and The Hippest Trip: The Soul Train Musical.
