C dans l'air l'invitée du 3 septembre 2025 avec Raphaëlle Bacqué, grand reporter au quotidien Le Monde, et autrice du livre Depardieu, une affaire très française, coécrit avec Samuel Blumenfeld et paru chez Albin Michel.Déjà condamné pour agressions sexuelles, l'acteur français Gérard Depardieu, 76 ans, devrait être traduit en justice au cours d'un nouveau procès, cette fois devant la cour criminelle départementale de Paris, pour viols sur la comédienne Charlotte Arnould. L'avocat de l'acteur, Jérémie Assous, a annoncé qu'il allait faire appel.Comme requis par le parquet de Paris, la juge d'instruction "ordonne le renvoi de Gérard Depardieu devant la cour criminelle pour des agressions sexuelles et viols par pénétration digitale à deux dates, les 7 et 13 août 2018" au domicile parisien de l'acteur, a déclaré à l'AFP son avocate Me Carine Durrieu Diebolt. Charlotte Arnould a de son côté salué ce renvoi, sur Instagram : "Sept ans après, sept ans d'horreur et d'enfer... (...). L'ordonnance vient rétablir une forme de vérité judiciaire. Je crois que j'ai du mal à réaliser tant c'est énorme. Je suis soulagée". La comédienne avait déposé plainte en août 2018 dans les Bouches-du-Rhône, quelques jours après les faits. Le parquet de Paris avait récupéré l'enquête puis l'avait classée en juin 2019 pour "infraction insuffisamment caractérisée".Multiprimé du "Dernier métro" à "Cyrano de Bergerac", Gérard Depardieu a été pendant plusieurs décennies considéré comme un géant du cinéma français, connu dans le monde entier, avant d'être rattrapé par ses outrances verbales et des accusations de violences sexuelles. Mi-mai, il a été condamné à 18 mois de prison avec sursis pour les agressions sexuelles de deux femmes sur le tournage en 2021 des "Volets verts" de Jean Becker. Il a fait appel.Raphaëlle Bacqué réagira au renvoi de Gérard Depardieu devant la cour criminelle de Paris, pour viols. 7 ans après les faits, alors que l'enquête avait été classée sans suite, comment expliquer une telle décision ? Qu'est-ce que cette affaire révèle du mouvement #Metoo en France, et de ses répercussions ?

Rick Geoffrion, Founder and CEO of Cyrano Therapeutics, is developing a drug to restore olfactory function due to post-viral loss of smell and taste. As a result of COVID-19, there has been a significant increase in the number of people affected by long-term smell and taste loss, with no effective pharmaceutical options previously available. Smell loss can also be an early indicator of neurodegenerative conditions, suggesting future applications of the intranasal spray that aims to directly restore function to the olfactory receptor neurons. Rick explains, "Taste and smell have a really strong connection, actually. First of all, they're two out of the five basic senses that we have as human beings. When you lose your sense of smell, people actually perceive that they've lost about 80% of their sense of taste. Now, technically, you're not losing your sense of taste. We actually just give our tongue too much credit. Our tongue is able to detect sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami. That's all it detects, and it detects them really in light monotone that are about 80% less intense if you've lost your sense of smell. In addition, if you no longer have your sense of smell, what you've really lost is the ability to detect flavor in food. So, to tell the difference between a peach, a pear, and a strawberry, maybe you'll tell that visually, but to tell it from a flavor perspective, you completely lose that ability.    "There really are no significant therapies to treat the condition right now. Essentially, if you've lost your sense of smell, a physician may recommend that you use smell training, which is essentially the regular smelling of intense essential oils, and they really haven't been shown to significantly treat or cure a chronic smell loss condition. It is thought that if your body is spontaneously recovering, say within those first few months, if you do undergo smell training, you may accelerate that recovery. But other than that, there's certainly no gold standard treatment or no significant treatments available right now, and no pharmaceuticals in the pipeline other than CYR-064, which is being developed by Cyrano." #CyranoTherapeutics #Olfactory #LongCOVID #PostViralLoss #IntranasalSpray #SmellandTaste #LongTermSmellLoss cyranotherapeutics.com Download the transcript here

14. Oktober 1996: Quarks verflossene Gattin Grilka besucht die Station, damit ihr Ex ihre Einkommenssteuererklärung macht. Worf – allen romantischen Hints, die Jadzia droppt, gegenüber blind – bekommt bei der stolzen klingonischen Lady Stielaugen, hat aber keine Schnitte und wird folgerichtig zum Cyrano de Bergerac für den Ferengi. Unterdessen wagen Kira und der Milester den Tanz auf dem Vulkan. In Deutschland: Gefährliche Liebschaften, ausgestrahlt am 23. Februar 1998.

Rosen has been hailed by The New York Times as “insanely ambitious,” “a sort of bridge between genres and generations, embracing Broadway standards, pop songs and the music of Tetris.” Broadway World hailed his orchestrations for “Some Like it Hot” — co-written with Bryan Carter — as “explosive… another first-rate team.” Opined JazzTimes of the 8-Bit Big Band: “[These are] innovative spins on a hidden musical canon that's arguably just booting up.” In 2021, Grammy.com proclaimed him to be one of “6 Big Band Composers Pushing The Format Forward.” Rosen was born in 1990 in Los Angeles, to a bassoonist and music teacher mother and pianist, banjoist, and silent movie theater organist father. When Rosen was three, his father ascertained that he had perfect pitch, when he successfully distinguished piano keys by color without seeing them. “That's a black key, that's a white key,” Rosen remembers intuiting. Rosen played flute in an elementary school orchestra, but that didn't really take. “I played cello for a year. That didn't really take,” Rosen says. But as his single digits flowed into his doubles, he accordingly took guitar lessons, and proceeded to perform in bands. “That was my first exposure to what it means to collaborate with your musical peers,” Rosen says, “as opposed to receiving rote classical music from a teacher.” Large ensemble jazz grew to captivate him most; his father frequently took him to see big bands and jazz orchestras, and his mother brought him to her orchestra rehearsals and chamber music performances. Rosen became fascinated by the sheer numbers of the musicians, the volume, and the force of the moving air. Saxophones, flutes, trumpets, banjos, guitars, and mandolins were around the house. “That influenced my love of arranging and discovering new instruments,” Rosen says — and he learned one after the other. Despite his parents' love of musicals, Rosen initially gravitated far more to classic rock and jazz. Yet in his sophomore year of high school, he nabbed a role in the coming-of-age Broadway musical “13” — which not only featured an entire cast of teenagers, but an all-teen orchestra. This led him to the comedic historical rock musical “Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson” — conversely, a full-on professional production with adults. Both shows transferred to Broadway one year apart, before Rosen was old enough to drink. Rosen studied at Berklee College of Music for a few semesters; around 2010, he decided to focus on Broadway for good. At first, he was a multi-instrumentalist in a variety of pits, and it became clear he was capable of much more. “I started being like, ‘I'll do anything. I can transcribe your piano parts. I'll write sheet music. I'll write horn parts for you,'” Rosen recalls. “Just to get my name out there as somebody who could be part of music teams.” In 2012, he started his first New York large ensemble, dubbed Charlie Rosen's Broadway Big Band. He went on to work on a plethora of Broadway shows, as an orchestrator, music director, music supervisor, and more — from “Moulin Rouge” to “Be Home Chill” to “Some Like it Hot.” Already, Rosen was reimagining what a big band could do. “I would take songs from Broadway shows, like I do with the 8-Bit Big Band, and totally flip them on their head — rearrange them,” he says, “and I would ask singers from the Broadway community to front it.” He began a long-running residency at Midtown Manhattan's 54 Below, and “invited as many music directors, supervisors and composers — anybody I could possibly think of — to come to this thing.” The 54 Below residency demonstrated Rosen's swelling chops for old-school, Broadway-style arranging. Fast forward through years of shows and connections, and in 2018, Rosen launched the 8-Bit Big Band, and the lifelong gamer picked up the torch of the “Great Video Game Songbook.” To date, they have released four albums: 2018's “Press Start!,” 2019's “Choose Your Character,” 2021's “Backwards Compatible,” and 2023's “Game Changer.” In 2021, Rosen won a Grammy for Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Capella. He won one Tony in 2020, for his work on “Moulin Rouge!, and another in 2023, for “Some Like It Hot.” Another Grammy followed in 2023, for his contributions to the latter production's cast recording. He was also nominated for both a Tony and Grammy award for his work on the groundbreaking 2022 Broadway show “A Strange Loop.”Other productions Rosen has worked on as a musician, composer, music supervisor, and/or orchestrator include “One Man, Two Guvnors”; “Cyrano de Bergerac”; “Honeymoon in Vegas”; “American Psycho”; “Prince of Broadway”; “Be More Chill”; “Moulin Rouge! The Musical”; and “A Strange Loop”. He was the musical director for the 2016 TV series “Maya & Marty,” and 2020's “Arthur Miller Foundation Honors,” and arranged, orchestrated, conducted, and/or composed for 2017's “The President Snow,” the 2021 documentary “Listening to Kenny G,” and that year's Billy Crystal comedy-drama “Here Today,” as well as the music producer for the 2023 film “Wonka.” What binds it all together is Rosen's unshakeable faith in the unrealized potential of a piece of music, especially as it relates to its function for dramatic storytelling. How the music functions to deliver a story, or deliver a feeling — “whether someones up there singing or not,” Rosen says. “Or whether it's creating an arrangement to support a singer singing in a specific way, or an instrumentalist to solo in a way they do best. “Whether it's your movie, song, orchestra, TV show, or Broadway show,” Rosen concludes, “it's all essentially the same instinct, but through instruments.” Marc Shaiman, a Tony-winning theater and Oscar-nominated film composer, described Mr. Rosen as a big talent, but without the eccentricities that sometimes come along for the ride. ‘It's the kind of talent where I almost want to hate him,' Mr. Shaiman said. ‘But I can't.' You don't get to be Charlie without being insanely ambitious, but I think it's really an ambition to have as much music in his life and in his head and in his mouth as he possibly can. He just loves making music.”

We close out 1987 with a quirky one: Steve Martin's adaptation of Cyrano de Bergerac: Roxanne, starring Daryl Hannah as the titular intellectual love interest of C.D. (Martin), a small-town fire chief with a brilliant mind and a prominent proboscis. This is a really fun way to end this series! Next up we'll have an entire month of Agnes Varda, starting with her first feature Cleo from 5 to 7, so start watching!

Ale Guzzetti"Sguardi diversi"Quando i robot incontrarono gli antichi DeiFino al 06 Giugno 2025Milano, Fondazione Mudima, Via Tadino 26http://www.mudima.netQuando i robot incontrarono gli antichi Dei, è il titolo della mostra personale di Ale Guzzetti organizzata da Fondazione Mudima a Milano, dal 6 maggio al 6 giugno 2025. Curata da Gino Di Maggio, l'esposizione ripercorre la lunga parabola creativa dell'artista, tra i primi in Italia a sondare il binomio arte e tecnologia.A partire dai primi anni Ottanta Guzzetti ha intrapreso una proficua ricerca creativa volta a esplorare i territori dell'arte elettronica e interattiva, fino a indagare le potenzialità della robotica, della stampa 3D e delle scansioni digitali. La mostra presenta un nucleo di opere emblematiche del suo percorso pionieristico, sculture e installazioni in cui figure plastiche e circuiti elettronici istituiscono un rapporto attivo con lo spettatore, costantemente stimolato a diventare co-produttore delle opere stesse.«Il lavoro di Ale Guzzetti si propone di far convivere arte e scienza aprendo - tra i primi artisti al mondo - un nuovo percorso artistico in cui i materiali utilizzati diventano essi stessi linguaggio specifico. Sono opere interattive, ma a differenza di quanto già accaduto nella storia dell'arte, le sue creazioni sono autonome. È il caso dei suoi lavori più recenti dedicati alla robotica, in cui le sculture non sono solo osservabili, ma a loro volta ci osservano, o osservano altre sculture. Per gli esseri umani è una situazione nuova, forse inquietante, perché non siamo ancora preparati a dialogare, per lo meno con lo sguardo, con una presenza artificiale. Ma la presenza c'è e come, e fin da subito dobbiamo, noi umani, decidere se prestarci a un gioco a cui ancora non siamo pronti» commenta il curatore Gino Di Maggio.Accogliendo la sfida della complessità, teorizzata dall'epistemologo Edgar Morin, e collaborando con filosofi come Mauro Ceruti e Gianluca Bocchi - principali cultori in Italia della scienza della complessità - Guzzetti concepisce l'opera d'arte come un vero e proprio ecosistema, frutto delle interrelazioni con l'ambiente e delle connessioni che stabilisce con i fruitori.  Sin dalle prime sperimentazioni, le sue opere si configurano come oggetti “senzienti”: è il caso delle Sculture sonore, a cui l'artista inizia a lavorare nel 1983, aggregazioni di oggetti in plastica (bottiglie, boe, tubi) che ospitano circuiti elettronici o dispositivi luminosi in grado di emettere rumori, voci e luci, a seconda del contatto, diretto o indiretto, con i visitatori.Le creature di Guzzetti sono “organismi tecnologici” in grado di dissolvere confini e limiti consolidati: quelli tra il mondo naturale e artificiale, tra spiritualità e tecnologia, classicità e modernità, passato e presente. Nelle sue opere sfuma la contrapposizione fra la sacralità dell'arte, che intimorisce e allontana, e l'ironia, che invita al coinvolgimento, al gioco e alla partecipazione. È il caso della serie Robot Portraits, caricature robotiche di personaggi famosi, reali o immaginari, inseriti all'interno di grandi cornici baroccheggianti. Profili di visi in resina e circuiti di Dante, Cleopatra, Cyrano, Federico da Montefeltro, Pinocchio, caratterizzati da grandi occhi tecnologici, grazie alla presenza di sensori, scrutano con curiosità ogni movimento. Tra le sculture e gli spettatori si instaura così un originale gioco di sguardi che sovverte continuamente le dinamiche tradizionali tra osservatore e oggetto osservato.I robot di Guzzetti ci sfidano e ci ri-guardano, desiderosi di stabilire un rapporto empatico con lo spettatore, e talvolta tra di loro. Nella serie Affective Robots, ad esempio, busti robotici o scultorei anelano a interagire l'uno con l'altro e a scambiarsi gesti affettuosi come in Impossible Kiss (2012) dove due volti umanoidi trasparenti tentano di entrare in contatto come due amanti colti nell'atto di scambiarsi un bacio. Un tipo di connessione che genera in chi osserva un senso di straniamento, ma anche di tenerezza, perché in un futuro prossimo i nostri sentimenti potrebbero assumere sfumature sempre meno umane. Ancora una volta sono gli occhi l'elemento che permette al pubblico di immedesimarsi nei due dispositivi artificiali. I loro occhi sono simili ai nostri ma diversi per la linea dello sguardo: nell'uomo orizzontale nei robot verticale. Quello dei due robot mima lo scrolling che ormai, in maniera del tutto automatica e “naturale”, caratterizza il nostro modo di vedere il mondo attraverso i device digitali.Fanno parte della stessa serie anche Affective Robot VS Naukides Discobolus (2013) e Robot VS Michelangelo (Daniele da Volterra) (2012), due conversazioni tête-à-tête tra una riproduzione in gesso di un'opera classica e un umanoide. Un simbolico passaggio di testimone tra i canoni di rappresentazione dell'essere umano nel corso della storia. Tra i due busti ci sono differenze epocali, eppure un filo rosso le accomuna: la volontà dell'umanità di avvicinarsi alla perfezione divina. Se nel mondo classico la perfezione era incarnata dalla figura dell'atleta e scolpita in blocchi di marmo, oggi l'uomo perfetto è il risultato di ciò che ha saputo costruire intorno a sé: relazioni, progresso intelligente, innovazione.I lavori più recenti di Ale Guzzetti, Quando i robot incontrarono gli antichi Dei, approfondiscono ulteriormente il tema dell'ibridazione tra antichità e contemporaneità, forme classiche e tecnologie avanzate. Dalla Medusa del Rondanini al Torso Gaddi, da una testa di Polifemo, risalente al II secolo a.C., a quella del dio Hypnos, conservata al British Museum: le riproduzioni stampate in 3D di busti e volti classici sono potenziate da visori, schermi e device di ultima generazione, come se i personaggi del passato cercassero di mimetizzarsi con l'uomo del nuovo millennio, ormai incapace di percepirsi senza ausilio tecnico. Alcuni dei dispositivi che innervano queste sculture sembrano provenire da un futuro lontano, quasi apocalittico: in realtà la tecnologia è già diventata un prolungamento dei nostri stessi corpi, una protesi necessaria alla nostra esistenza. Non ci appaiono dunque così aliene le figure che l'artista ci consegna da un passato lontano, contaminandole con gli esiti più avanzati del progresso. Incalzate dal nostro sguardo si animano, reagiscono alla nostra presenza, ci sussurrano quello che sanno e che apprendono.Dall'antichità, passando per gli automi rinascimentali, fino ai robot e all'intelligenza artificiale, il sogno della scultura, sin dai tempi più remoti, è stato quello di replicare la vita. Il tentativo di creare opere d'arte autonome, infatti, è un tema che affonda le proprie radici nel mito greco di Dedalo, fautore di invenzioni antropomorfe straordinarie, in grado di muoversi e persino di parlare. Con Dedalo l'artista diviene mago, ha il potere non solo di imitare l'esistenza, ma di plasmarla, creando opere che hanno libertà di azione e si rapportano con i viventi. Le creature di Guzzetti si inseriscono in questo millennario filone di sperimentazione, e traggono da esso il potere di sollecitare la nostra curiosità, prima che l'inquietudine abbia il sopravvento.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Good evening and a huge welcome back to the show, I hope you've had a great day and you're ready to kick back and relax with another episode of Brett's old time radio show. Hello, I'm Brett your host for this evening and welcome to my home in beautiful Lyme Bay where it's lovely December night. I hope it's just as nice where you are. You'll find all of my links at www.linktr.ee/brettsoldtimeradioshow A huge thankyou for joining me once again for our regular late night visit to those dusty studio archives of Old Time radio shows right here at my home in the united kingdom. Don't forget I have an Instagram page and YouTube channel both called Brett's old time radio show and I'd love it if you could follow me.

Created by S.S. Van Dine, Philo Vance first appeared in The Benson Murder Case (1925) as a wealthy dilettante whose keen mind and extensive knowledge made him an indispensable crime solver. His friend, District Attorney Markham, relied on his unconventional methods, while the gruff Sergeant Heath barely concealed his exasperation. Vance was equal parts scholar, art connoisseur, and detective—a man whose cultured demeanor masked an unyielding resolve to untangle the most perplexing crimes. Vance's popularity surged on the silver screen, where he was played by luminaries such as William Powell, Basil Rathbone, and Warren William. But it was on radio that his voice truly came to life. From 1943 to 1945, John Emery first gave voice to the suave sleuth. In 1945, the legendary José Ferrer brought his commanding presence to the role in an NBC summer series. Then, beginning in 1946, the masterful Jackson Beck took over, starring in over 100 syndicated episodes produced by Frederic Ziv, ensuring Vance's legacy endured on the airwaves.

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues   The Making of the film “Bushman” Rob Nillson, Gail Schickele, Jon Shibata Film director Rob Nillson, Activist and Environmentalist Gail Schickele, and Film Archivist Jon Shibata in conversation with Richard Wolinsky, discussing the film “Bushman,” directed by David Schickele, recorded January 25, 2024 at Berkeley Art Museum/Pacific Film Archive. Released in 1971 but filmed in 1968, the film “Bushman” is a masterpiece detailing the story of a Nigerian educator in San Francisco. The film vanished following its showing at various film festivals, and has now been digitized and restored, and can be viewed on the Kanopy and Hoopla, the free public library film apps. This discussion with Gail Schickele, wife of the late director David Schickele (1937-1999), his friend, colleague and collaborator director Rob Nillson, and BAMPFA film archivist John Shibata focuses first on “Bushman” and David Schickele, how the film came about and what happened during and after the filming, and later with the film's restoration, and a look at Rob Nillson's career as film-maker.

Jeroen Spitzenberger vervult zijn droomrol als Cyrano in een nieuwe, humoristische en muzikale bewerking van het iconische liefdesverhaal ‘Cyrano de Bergerac'. De voorstelling laat zien hoe het uiterlijk – of juist de perceptie ervan – iemands leven beïnvloedt. Daarnaast is Spitzenberger te zien in de Netflix-serie Haantjes met Waldemar Torenstra en Benja Bruijning over de zoektocht van veertigers naar hun plek in de moderne samenleving.  Presentatie: Willemijn Veenhoven

Mark interviews Tony Binns, an award-winning stand-up comedian and screenwriter whose feature #ROXY was nominated for 3 Canadian screen awards, 3 Canadian Comedy Awards, and took home Best Feature at the Ampia awards as well as Best Feature for Teens at the Kidscreen awards.

CHRISTMAS and how it evolved into a completely different movie than the one that he originally pitched The "we love this, change everything" thing that happens with movies Tony's WAITING FOR WAITING FOR GODOT which is a show about two women waiting for a production of the play Waiting For Godot which never happens, and how that play was inspired by the way that days could blur together for people, particularly as we get older and "become that guy" Being a Rush fan since he first heard "Spirit of Radio" How Tony was inspired to create a fake Alex Lifeson account on Facebook after he's seen a fake Geddy Lee account The relation between ADHD and being "all in" on something -- like Rush, Monty Python and Rush for Tony How, during Covid Tony did a one-man reading of Monty Python and the Holy Grail Doing a Canadian overdub of Dragonball Z Adapting a pilot from a Canadian novel called The Smeltdog Man by Frank Macdonald and leveraging the "Deadpool" style of breaking the fourth wall Advice that Tony would give to the young nerdy Mark and Tony How Tony used to write sketches even though he didn't have an outlet for them The Dungeons & Dragons podcast that Tony is a part of called The +2 Rodcast And more . . .    After the interview Mark reflects on a few things that came up in the discussion.   Links of Interest: Tony's Definitely The Real Alex Lifeson Facebook Profile Tony on Twitter/X Tony Binns on IMDB #ROXY Truckstop Bloodsuckers Fugget About It Buy Mark a Coffee Patreon for Stark Reflections EP 353 - Tao Wong on The Toronto Indie Author Conference Alex Lifeson's Speech on Behalf of Rush at Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Mark's YouTube channel Mark's Stark Reflections on Writing & Publishing Newsletter (Signup) An Author's Guide to Working With Bookstores and Libraries The Relaxed Author Buy eBook Direct Buy Audiobook Direct Publishing Pitfalls for Authors An Author's Guide to Working with Libraries & Bookstores Wide for the Win Mark's Canadian Werewolf Books This Time Around (Short Story) A Canadian Werewolf in New York Stowe Away (Novella) Fear and Longing in Los Angeles Fright Nights, Big City Lover's Moon Hex and the City Only Monsters in the Building The Canadian Mounted: A Trivia Guide to Planes, Trains and Automobiles Yippee Ki-Yay Motherf*cker: A Trivia Guide to Die Hard Merry Christmas!

This week on No More Late Fees, Jackie and Danielle take a deep dive into Whatever It Takes, a Y2K teen rom-com filled with grand gestures, awkward love triangles, and early 2000s charm. Joined by their guest Gina, the trio embarks on a hilarious yet brutally honest rewatch, dissecting whether this high school take on Cyrano de Bergerac still holds up—or if it should've stayed in the past. From James Franco's infamously wet mouth to the film's questionable gender dynamics, no topic is off-limits as they pull apart this nostalgic mess of a movie.Along the way, expect heated debates, unexpected Degrassi tangents, and the return of the now-iconic No More Late Fees burn book. Will the movie pass the ultimate rewatch test, or will it be relegated to the "same day rental" bin of cinematic regret? Tune in as Danielle, Jackie, and Gina dish on Whatever It Takes, spilling all the tea with their signature mix of comedy, nostalgia, and zero-filter commentary!·Season 4 Episode 48·—No More Late Fees ⁠https://nomorelatefeespodcast.com⁠909-601-NMLF (6653)—Follow Us on Social:Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/nomorelatefees TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@nomorelatefees Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/nomorelatefeesYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@nomorelatefees Twitterhttps://x.com/NoMoreLateFees —CONQUERing⁠⁠myconquering.com⁠⁠10% Off Code: JACKIE10—NostaBeautyhttps://nostabeauty.com 20% Off Code: NMLF—GinaTikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@theregigoes?lang=enInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/theregigoes —Previous EpisodesRemember Gi This Way with Gina https://nomorelatefeespodcast.com/episode/remember-gi-this-way-with-ginaCasperhttps://nomorelatefeespodcast.com/episode/casperFrom Brandy to Barrymore: Our Top Cinderella Movie Picks with Ginahttps://nomorelatefeespodcast.com/episode/from-brandy-to-barrymore-our-top-cinderella-movie-picks-with-ginaA Cinderella Storyhttps://nomorelatefeespodcast.com/episode/a-cinderella-story

“Severance” is an office drama with a twist: the central characters have undergone a procedure to separate their work selves (“innies,” in the parlance of the show) from their home selves (“outies”). The Apple TV+ series is just the latest cultural offering to explore how the modern world asks us to compartmentalize our lives in increasingly drastic ways. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz trace the trope of the “double” over time, from its nineteenth-century origins in such works as “Jane Eyre” and “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” to the “passing” novels of the nineteen-twenties and thirties. Today's Oscar front-runners are rife with doubles, too, including those seen in  the Demi Moore-led body-horror film “The Substance” and “The Apprentice,” in which a young Donald Trump fashions himself in the image of his mentor, Roy Cohn. At a time when technological advances and social platforms allow us to present—or to engineer—an optimized version of our lives, it's no wonder our second selves are haunting us anew. “I think the double will always exist because of the hope for wholeness,” Cunningham says. “It's such a strong desire that the shadow of that whole self—the doppelgänger—will always be lurking at the edges of our imagination.” Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Severance” (2022—)“The Substance” (2024)“A Different Man” (2024)“Frankenstein,” by Mary Shelley“The Apprentice” (2024)“Passing,” by Nella LarsenKey and Peele's sketch “Phone Call”“Jane Eyre,” by Charlotte Brontë“Lisa and Lottie,” by Erich KästnerWilliam Shakespeare's “As You Like It”“The Uncanny,” by Sigmund FreudEdmond Rostand's “Cyrano de Bergerac”New episodes drop every Thursday.
