Great moody, almost electroclash esque analog gems. It's been interesting to see Rebotini's music come back around from the rave days through film scores to now without really changing much. No one does the nexus point of French House and EBM quite like him. 9 DJ Plant Texture - Life - Tresor RecordsThe first of two Tresor releases in my top 10, not sure what has been happening over there lately, but I'm here for it. A great weirdo techno 12 inch where opening track Repetitivo (Stretch Mix) sounding like Jeff Mills having eaten too many haribo, before mutating into scattered hats across the dancefloor, perhaps to trip up Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern who have broken into your house for some reason. 8 Autechre - Untilted - Warp Records Now to the first of two reissues in my list, and despite my somewhat negative thoughts as to their quote unquote live show I saw this year, I still love the music and this one in particular stuck out. Approachable but still properly mad. Proof that extreme computer music can be fun. 7 Clark - Steep Stims - Throttle Records I remember when Chris Clark came out with his first record and thinking that it too warp for warp records. I'm pretty sure we never met when I was in Berlin, unless I got him confused with Kid 606, in which case I apologize to you both. Anyway, Steep Stims is great, playful, emotional, one foot in the past and another in the future, really great work that I think will age really well. Solid work Mr Clark. 6 Emptyset - Dissever - Thrill Jockey Records Amazing new record from Emptyset, feels like they took all the lessons from all the later records and applied it to the earlier ones. Beautiful intense grinding drones, like someone built an installation of Sheer Hellish Miasma and I'm somehow in the room with it. 5 Merzbow, Iggor Cavalera, Eraldo Bernocchi - Nocturnal Rainforest - PAN Full disclosure, Iggor sent this to me, but it's been on my repeated listens ever since. Zen-like terror but incredibly dynamic. One of the best noise releases of the year and I'd go as far as to say a career highlight for each of the members. 4 Various Artists - 30 Years Sonic Groove - Sonic Groove Has it really been 30 years of Sonic Groove? Adam X compiles a collection of outstanding producers for this excellent collection of tracks. Highlights include the mutant acid of Bryan Zentz, the incomparable genius of Mike Parker and the industrial brutality of Statiqbloom. 3 Dopplereffekt - Metasymmetry - Tresor The second Tresor release on my list is the mighty Dopplereffekt. Beautiful, futuristic and unmistakably Detroit. Top 3 don't disagree! 2 Maria Somerville - Luster - 4AD Genuinely shocking to hear an artist on 4AD in 2025 that sounds like what an artist on 4AD sounds like in my head and it's great. Melancholic Ambient shoegaze for a new generation. 1 Coil - Black Antlers - Dais Records Black Antlers is not my favorite Coil album, but it is the one I least expected to be reissued as it was originally a tour only CDR that then got expanded. You could argue that it might not count as a proper Coil album, but who has time for these discussions. Some of the best music ever created. Nick (Disfigure; the one on the right in the pic) Favorites: Kommodus - A Foetal Wolf in Stained Glass - Probably my favorite release from Kommodus. Really awesome auxiliary instruments incorporated here and I like the unhinged melodic leads thrown in on a lot of the songs. It has a punkier tinge to it with the guitar tones and the vocals are equally as heavy Fellwinter - Dark Mediaeval Art - Pure riff-centric Judas Iscariot worship Magus Lord - In The Company of Champions - Epic in every way. I liked this better than the Lamp record this year but M has been writing fantastic black metal for a while and this side project is really refreshing to follow Ultimate Disaster - For Progress . . . - Perfectly written D-Beat in my opinion. Very tight songwriting and the riffs and solos are so well executed Valen - Viarum - I'm a huge Thangorodrim fan and this project has reminded me most of that. This was my go-to Dungeon Synth for some epic game nights this year Enceladus - Demo II - Another great release from this project. I love the half time parts, the more death metal sounding vocals, and just the ferocity of the songs while still being melodic Iron Firmament - Arcane Overspill - Amazing black metal from Washington, a state known for churning out amazing black metal for over two decades. I really love the production on this release, especially the interludes. This band writes amazing riffs and this has been a standout for me in their already exceptional discography Sharp Pins - Balloon Balloon Balloon - I love Power pop, I love Guided By Voices and Sharp Pins delivers on all fronts Occult Blood/Carrion Bloom - Battle Cries of Endless Night - Both sides of this split are fantastic. Put out by Wergild who can't miss lately with their bands/releases Utility - S/T - The hometown heroes! The whole release but especially the first song reminds me so much of Fired Up, one of my favorite CT hardcore bands of all time. Great songwriting and also absolutely on point with the energy and vocals. The demo before this is fantastic as well The Redscroll Podcast is a monthly show (first of the month going forward) that works as a companion to what we do at Redscroll Records in Wallingford, CT USA.

It's a New Years movie! "Get Crazy" is a wild and spoofy film that we had never heard of, but it's the perfect way to end the year. This is awesome 80s goodness featuring a young Daniel Stern as he tries to put together a concert to save the Saturn Theatre. It features acts such as Reggie Wanker – a smug British solo rocker, Captain Cloud – leader of a hippie collective, King Blues – writer of many famous Blues tunes, Nada – a new wave/glam rock act, and Auden – a singer/songwriter who looks suspiciously like Lou Reed, and we're covering all of their music and more in our final episode of 2025!
En el episodio 7 de esta temporada hablaremos de la película "SOLO EN CASA" ('Home Alone', 1990). Dirigida por Chris Columbus, esta comedia familiar se convirtió en uno de los grandes fenómenos de finales de los 80 y principios de los 90. La historia de Kevin McCallister, un niño olvidado en casa durante las vacaciones de Navidad que debe defenderse de dos torpes ladrones, mezcló humor físico, ternura y situaciones inolvidables. Con Macaulay Culkin como protagonista y un reparto encabezado por Joe Pesci y Daniel Stern. *Sintonía de entrada: Lucidator de Saggitarius V.

The Christmas classic “Home Alone” turns 35 this year, and we can't think of a better way to celebrate than with this fun podcast. How did John Hughes come up with the idea for “Home Alone”?

How did Daniel Stern almost lose his role as the dimwitted Marv? And what are a few of Macauley Culkins' recollections from filming? We discuss all this and more!

Tutti pazzi per la foto reunion dei protagonisti di Mamma ho perso l'aereo ( Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci e Daniel Stern) peccato si tratti di AI
Send us a textA John Hughes/Chris Columbus joint, Home Alone is the heartwarming tale of an upper-middle-class family who go to Paris and accidentally leave their youngest child behind like an extra carry-on they didn't feel like paying for. Eight-year-old Kevin McCallister—played by a pint-sized, eyebrow-acting Macaulay Culkin—responds to this minor hiccup by eating junk food, watching gangster movies, and turning his house into a suburban Saw trap for two burglars whose crime is mostly being too stupid to quit. Those burglars are Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern, delivering what may be cinema's most sustained assault on human skulls outside of a cartoon.In a way, Home Alone is basically It's a Wonderful Life if George Bailey wished everyone away and immediately started committing war crimes against local criminals. While Catherine O'Hara panics her way across continents and John Heard quietly realizes he's a terrible father, Kevin learns that family matters… but also that you can permanently disable two grown men with household items. It's Christmas magic, but with more concussions and far fewer angels getting their wings.
Dave, Rob, and Kurt settle into their studio chairs like a trio of over-caffeinated elves, ready to unwrap the 1990 holiday juggernaut that is Home Alone. Their conversation whirls through booby-trap brilliance, John Williams magic, and the curious physics of paint cans that apparently double as guided missiles. Each host brings a different flavor to the sleigh ride: Dave with his delighted forensic breakdown of Kevin's gadgetry, Rob with his gleeful appreciation for Daniel Stern's operatic screams, and Kurt chiming in like a cinematic chimney sweep, sweeping up every stray detail of Chicago suburbia in December Before long, the studio hums like a blinking string of lights as the three volley memories from childhood Christmases, those early encounters with a movie that felt equal parts cartoon and cozy hearth. They marvel at how a simple tale of a forgotten kid guarding his kingdom became a perennial beacon in the winter constellation. Even now, as adults flanked by microphones instead of stockings, the film hits them with the same peppermint-snap energy: fast, funny, a little chaotic, and glowing with the warm certainty that, in the end, everyone finds their way home Pandora: https://pandora.app.link/iq8iShjXOLb Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/totally-80s-and-90s-recall/id1662282694 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/11dk5TUoLUk4euD1Te1EYG?si=b37496eb6e784408 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/1960c8f9-158d-43ac-89a6-d868ea1fe077/totally-80s-and-90s-recall YouTube Podcasts: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH9lGakNgCDZUkkHMUu88uXYMJu_33Rab&si=xo0EEVJRSwS68mWZ Contact Us: Website: https://totally80s90srecall.podbean.com/ Email: 80s90srecall@gmail.com LinkTree:https://linktr.ee/80s90srecall

Join Ian and Maggie for their episode on the more modern Christmas classic, Home Alone. Though less substantive that the forthcoming Holdovers episode (again apologies for our technical difficulties changing up our schedule), Home Alone proved to be an enjoyable watch.
The boys kick off the Christmas season right with Home Alone from 1990. In this 90's classic, the McCallisters miscounted their children before taking off to France leaving little Kevin behind. With only his wits, he must protect himself and his home form the Wet Bandits!Support the showCatch new episodes of the Where to Stick It Podcast every Tuesday and Thursday.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay are celebrating the Xxxmas season by ordering plain cheese pizzas and watching the Christmas classic, 'Home Alone.' Andy gets us into the festive spirit by recalling the time he and friends were sledding inside a house, and caused more destruction than Kevin McCallister setting boobie traps. Then the fellas talk about this holiday staple that features a child star-making performance from Macaulay Culkin, but is bolstered by incredible performances from jerks Joe Pesci (the same year as 'Goodfellas'), Daniel Stern, and 'After Hours' stars John Heard and Catherine O'Hara. The guys discuss the true sickening reasons behind Harry and Marv being so motivated to capture the helpless 8-year-old. Plus, they wonder if Kevin had any friends, and how hilarious it is to see his transformation in only a matter of days with his family gone. The mayhem in the movie may take longer to get to than you remember, but the mayhem in our episode starts straight from the beginning, ya filthy animals.
Ein Film, der mittlerweile 35 Jahre alt ist und sich seinen Platz im Olymp der Weihnachtsfilme mehr als gesichert hat.
On the new episode of The Denise Ilitch Show, Denise explores the parallels between business partnerships and marriage in the first half, and then dives into the enduring Motown legacy in the second. Denise sits down with Daniel Stern and Christopher Brochert, co-founders of Lormax Stern Development—a nationally recognized, award-winning real estate firm known for its innovative shopping centers and contemporary approach. Together, they discuss why a successful partnership is much like a marriage: it requires trust, aligned values, shared decision-making, and mutual respect. Daniel and Christopher share their journey, the importance of education and mentorship in business, and offer invaluable advice for aspiring entrepreneurs—emphasizing that people are your greatest assets and that patience is key to long-term success. In the second half, Denise welcomes Robin Terry, Chairwoman of the Motown Museum and granddaughter of Motown's founder. Robin shares her family's remarkable legacy, her ambitious $75 million expansion project for the museum, and her vision for keeping Motown relevant for future generations. From transforming Hitsville U.S.A. into a hub for young artists to celebrating Detroit's rich musical heritage through programs like Amplify the Sound of Detroit, Robin's passion for community and innovation shines through.

In this episode of The Leader's Notebook, I continue my series “Also Featured in the Cast” by looking at the “St. Peter movie”—and the people who surrounded him. From James and John, the fiery “Sons of Thunder,” to John's quiet faithfulness at the foot of the Cross, to James the brother of Jesus who led the church in Jerusalem, to Paul's bold confrontation of Peter at Antioch, and even to Judas Iscariot, I explore the lives of those who shaped and challenged Simon Peter's journey. Their stories illuminate our own struggles with failure, forgiveness, calling, and grace. No matter how far we've fallen, we cannot out-sin the grace of God. – Dr. Mark Rutland Chapters (00:00:03) - Leaders Notebook(00:01:22) - The Life of Daniel Stern(00:03:00) - Simon Peter and the Circumcision(00:07:27) - Simon Peter and St. Paul(00:09:15) - The Sons of Thunder(00:17:11) - Simon Peter at the Cross(00:18:28) - The Life of St. John, Chapter 21(00:24:08) - James, the Administrative Bishop at Jerusalem(00:26:47) - Paul the Apostle in Peter's Movie(00:30:23) - The Life of Judas Iscariot(00:32:18) - What Did Judas Iscariot Do That Peter Didn't(00:38:03) - The Life of St. Peter and John

In this segment of The Ben and Skin Show, Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray dive into a whirlwind of celebrity news and personal reflections, kicking things off with a somber yet heartfelt tribute to R&B icon D'Angelo, whose untimely passing at 51 from pancreatic cancer left fans reeling. Skin shares a deeply personal story about his connection to D'Angelo's music, including seeing him live in Dallas three times since 1995. But it's not all heavy. The gang lightens the mood with a hilarious breakdown of D'Angelo's infamous “Untitled” music video — yes, the one with the V. KT confesses it inspired him to start doing sit-ups at age 11, while Ben and Skin riff on the absurdity of being a reluctant sex symbol. Cue the panty-throwing concert stories and a perfectly timed jab: “No one wants to be R. Kelly. Hindsight.”The segment also touches on the passing of Diane Keaton (no, she's not related to Michael Keaton — we Googled it too), and the surprising hospitalization of Home Alone star Daniel Stern, prompting KT to jokingly predict he might be next in the celebrity “comes-in-threes” curse.From gut-punching grief to gut-busting laughs, this episode is a rollercoaster of emotion, nostalgia, and classic Ben and Skin banter.
Dan & Manny are joined by friend of the show, artist & pop culture enthusiast Andrew Breen to put the 1989 fantasy comedy horror film Little Monsters to the ultimate test—THE NOSTALGIA TEST! “Little Monsters is one of the most repellent, distasteful, truly creepy movies I've seen in a long time, a movie so unpleasant I can't really figure out why anybody wanted to make it, and I don't know why anybody would wanna see it.” -Roger Ebert It's officially Spooky Season and what better way to celebrate than to put one of the weirdest and creepiest movies ever made to the ultimate test. Little Monsters makes the plot of every David Lynch film look totally normal. This movie was suggested by the guest, Andrew Breen, who's an amazing artist and a pop culture nerd like Dan & Manny. Little Monsters looks like a club Bill Hader's SNL character Stefon would be partying at until everyone turns into a pile of clothes. This movie has everything, Fred Savage, Daniel Stern on the verge of murdering his whole family, the woman who owned The Cleveland Indians in Major League, and a monster named Snick, who's a cigarette cross from between the girl who turned into a blueberry before she died in Willy Wonka and a broke down Meatloaf. Not to mention a PCP riddled Howie Mandal as Maurice the monster, who is an eleven-year-old/200-year-old blue lunatic getting children grounded, yelled at, and probably hit (hey, it's the 80s). So set your monster catching traps, make your peanut butter and onion sandwiches, make sure to check the apple juice before you drink it, and come hangout as we see if Little Monsters passes The Nostalgia Test.

Aug. 1-7: Babe wins our hearts, Denzel goes virtual, Daniel Stern goes to camp, Amy Adams begins, inside the Playboy Mansion, a girl gets a dragon tattoo, Jason Bateman gets a bad gift, and It's Always Sunny is tasteless for the very first time. All that and more from 30, 20, and 10 years ago.
“They're gonna keep calling us 'cutters.' To them, it's just a dirty word. To me, it's just something else I never got a chance to be.” How has it taken this long to get to a good old-fashioned sports movie on the podcast? We watched the Peter Yates film "Breaking Away" with our good friend Joshua Clement. Dennis Christopher plays Dave Stohler, a working-class Midwest teen, passionate about Italian cycling, navigating life with his ragtag group of friends. Nominated for a handful of Oscars, including best picture, director, and a win for original screenplay, "Breaking Away" was a sleeper hit when it came out the summer of 1979. The most 70s cast of cute young men to fill a back issue of Tiger Beat Magazine. We have our lanky lead, Dennis Christopher, who's giving us 70s Timothée Chalamet, there's Dennis Quaid with his six-pack on full display, a post- "Bad News Bears" heartthrob Jackie Earle Haley, and the screen debut of Daniel Stern!

YEEE-HA!!! Saddle up, buckaroos! This week, Darin and John are watching City Slickers, with Billy Crystal, Bruno Kirby, Daniel Stern, and Jack Palance! When Mitch, [...]
This week on Shat The Movies, Gene and Big D rope in a modern Western classic with City Slickers (1991), a film that's equal parts midlife meltdown, male bonding, and calf-birthing madness. Commissioned as a birthday gift from Ken to Eileen, Shat The Movies Episode 450 explores the heartfelt—and sometimes hilarious—journey of three friends finding purpose on a New Mexico cattle drive. Gene shares personal reflections on Americana cosplay, toxic corporate life, and the ever-elusive “one thing,” while Big D opens up about aging, friendship, and why his idea of bliss is scrubbing solar panels at 6 a.m. They dive into masculinity, mental health, Billy Crystal's Mets cap, and the emotional weight behind Jack Palance's Oscar-winning performance. Oh, and yes—there's an in-depth discussion about cow afterbirth, horse anatomy, and “horse beans.” You're welcome. Plot Summary: City Slickers is a 1991 Western comedy directed by Ron Underwood and starring Billy Crystal, Daniel Stern, and Bruno Kirby. It follows Mitch Robbins, a disillusioned 39-year-old New Yorker stuck in a midlife crisis, who embarks on a two-week cattle drive through the Southwest with his best friends Phil and Ed. Expecting a macho escape from their mundane lives, the trio instead face emotional reckoning, cowboy philosophy, and unexpected tenderness—including the birth of a calf Mitch names Norman. Along the way, they're guided by the grizzled trail boss Curly (Jack Palance in an Oscar-winning role), whose “one thing” lesson helps Mitch discover what really matters. Both funny and surprisingly poignant, City Slickers blends comedy with heartfelt introspection about friendship, adulthood, and the pursuit of meaning in middle age.

Berlin is losing its publicly-funded Nextbike system. What does it say about the city's deflating civic status? Also we meet the artistic director of the Doxumentale film festival to hear why they've added an X to their name. And the founder of Give Something Back to Berlin will tell us about how beauty parlours are places of feminist empowerment. Nextbike has lost its €1.5M annual public funding to run a discounted shared bicycle system across Berlin. The CDU-led city-state government says it is too broke to fund the scheme, which ran since 2017, and reached 4 million journeys last year. Joel explains what's behind its demise. Days before the start of Berlin's Dokumentale documentary and non-fiction festival, the organizers received a legal threat over their name. Instead of fighting, they've changed their name to DoXumentale. We meet the festival's artistic director Anna Ramskloger-Witt, who explains why the new name is better. She tells us about program, including a nature film about gay animals, a profile of a Berlin undertaker and more. DoXumentale runs until June 28. Find a screening or watch online at https://www.dokumentale.de/ What goes on behind the doors of beauty salons? NGO founder Annamaria Olsson decided to take a microphone to meet women in these safe spaces, and found a world of womens' empowerment. Beauty salons give women jobs and help them overcome domestic violence. Annamaria has travelled to Morocco, Georgia, Bosnia and Kosovo to record audio for her project. The result is “Stories from the Beauty Parlor”.

As What Next celebrates Memorial Day, please enjoy this episode from our colleagues at Decoder Ring. What Next will be back in your feed tomorrow. Something seems to have happened to car headlights. In the last few years, many people have become convinced that they are much brighter than they used to be—and it's driving them to the point of rage. Headlight glare is now Americans' number one complaint on the road. The story of how and why we got here is illuminating and confounding. It's what happens when an incredible technological breakthrough meets market forces, regulatory failure, and human foibles. So if you feel like everyone's driving around with their high beams on all the time, it's not your imagination. What once seemed like an obscure technical concern has gone mainstream. But can the movement to reduce glare actually do something about the problem? In this episode, you'll hear from Nate Rogers, who wrote about the “headlight brightness wars” for The Ringer; Daniel Stern, automotive lighting expert and editor of Driving Vision News; and Paul Gatto, moderator of r/fuckyourheadlights. This episode of Decoder Ring was written by Willa Paskin and Olivia Briley, and produced by Olivia Briley and Max Freedman. Our team also includes Katie Shepherd and supervising producer Evan Chung.

NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams splashed down off the Florida coast after spending more than nine months aboard the International Space Station—far longer than their planned eight-day mission. Their extended stay was due to a malfunction with Boeing's Starliner. Dr. Tom Marshburn, a veteran astronaut, joins us to discuss their return and what's next.

Fresh off welcoming her first child, she brings her unfiltered take on motherhood and everyday life to the stage. Tony Award winner Annaleigh Ashford takes on the real-life story of Melissa Moore in Happy Face, a Paramount+ true crime drama about a woman who discovers her father is a notorious serial killer.

Do you consider yourself a contrarian? If you do, then we have an encore edition of the show for you! If you don't, that probably makes you a contrarian -- so we have a show for you, too. Here are your show notes… The Secret was wildly popular. How do you feel about it? Martha Stewart is wildly successful. Are you happy for her? Gretchen Rubin thinks enthusiasm is a form of social courage. Do you agree? Daniel Stern's character in City Slickers said getting married meant he wasn't a goofball anymore. Does marriage confer status? Let me fall if I need to fall. The person I become will catch me. We grow in connection with others.
How did everything go last night at what our show is lovingly referring to as "The Last Dans?" We check in on the action out in New Orleans. Then, what movie is Daniel Stern most known for? Also, we check in with limited fake Barack Obama and limited fake Stephen A. Smith to hear what they have to say about the news that Stephen A. is polling at 2% for the Democratic Presidential Nominee in 2028.

It's full of surreal humor, like talking freeway signs, and it pokes fun at the city's obsession with image and trends. But it's also heartfelt, exploring how we connect with others in a place that can feel isolating. Keep an eye out for some great cameos, including Patrick Stewart as a hilariously serious maître d'. The film was shot all around L.A., including Griffith Park and Venice Beach, which really adds to its sense of place.Born in East L.A. (1987)Cheech Marin wrote, directed, and stars in this comedy about a Mexican-American man who gets mistakenly deported to Mexico. It's packed with laughs, but it also has a lot of heart as it explores cultural misunderstandings. Make sure to check out Paul Rodriguez and Daniel Stern both have memorable roles here, adding to the film's charm.To Live and Die in L.A. (1985)If you're into crime thrillers, this one's a must. Directed by William Friedkin (The Exorcist, The French Connection), it's a gritty and intense look at the darker side of Los Angeles. The film follows a Secret Service agent, played by William Petersen, as he becomes obsessed with catching a counterfeiter (Willem Dafoe). Friedkin's commitment to authenticity shows, especially in the car chases, which are some of the best ever put on film. The movie also features an amazing soundtrack by Wang Chung, which perfectly complements its tense, stylish vibe.L.A. Confidential (1997)Curtis Hanson's neo-noir is a masterpiece. Set in the 1950s, it dives into corruption, scandal, and ambition within the LAPD. The ensemble cast, including Kevin Spacey, Guy Pearce, Kim Basinger, and Russell Crowe, delivers some of their best work. Basinger even won an Oscar for her performance. The screenplay, co-written by Hanson and Brian Helgeland, is a brilliant adaptation of James Ellroy's novel. The production design and costumes perfectly recreate the glamour and grit of post-war Los Angeles, making it as visually striking as it is narratively gripping.That's the lineup for this week. Each of these films captures something unique about Los Angeles, from its humor and charm to its danger and complexity. If you decide to check out any of these, let me know what you think.

Billy Crystal was on a big hot streak in the late '80s and early '90s, topped by this comedy-western blockbuster. Ron Underwood directed City Slickers and did a terrific job balancing the laughs with all the mid-life crises of the 3 main characters. It's a comedy with some sting. What this film does best is connect with middle-aged men who are going through the things that Crystal, Bruno Kirby and Daniel Stern are. Jack Palance though plays a man who knows about that "one thing"...and he was the one who won an Oscar. So ride horses, rope cows and connect with your best buddies on a cattle drive as the 631st edition of Have You Ever Seen yahoos it up for City Slickers.
