Another fabulous week, another fabulous Coffee Sprudgecast episode. We're going full Proof of Taste on the pod this week, with several coffees ranging from outstanding to thank god we're still standing. Little Buddy, Danny Devito, Small Americano, Italiano. Call it whatever you want, but let's be real: three, four ounces of hot water with espresso, this little drink is delightful, and we slam one down using Equator Coffees latest offering from Thailand: Chaiprakarn Red Honey. We climb to the tippy top of Tug Hill and cup coffees from this artisan roaster out of Lowville, NY. Honestly, what a treasure. We love it when listeners of the show send us delicious coffees to try and we were absolutely cupping bowled over by the exquisite coffees Tug Hill sent us. The coffees? Pink Ranger and Ihcato. Do yourself a favor: run, don't walk. To celebrate pride, we make ourselves a cup of Albert Goldman's favorite morning brew: Turkish Coffee. We do this with a fancy piece of Turkish Coffee gear: the Saki Turkish Coffee maker. Gwar, unh! Good god, y'all, what is it good for? Absolutely…coffee? That's right, Gwar-heads, Gwar coffee. The Berserker Mode Blend. We drink it! Finally, as if we hadn't had enough coffee, we taste test of the Oreo Tiramisu Thins. Our verdict? Well, you'll just have to listen. This episode of the Coffee Sprudgecast is sponsored by DONA, Pacific Barista Series, and La Marzocco.

Kevin Costner is floating around the Gold Coast, so the team answer the question: Which star is big enough that you would go out of the way to see them? Liam thinks The Rock, Spida wants Trumpy and Leisel thinks Kim Kardashian. George would go out of his way for Danny Devito! Spida went suit shopping yesterday and reveals that he can’t go shopping without Sheree. He’s not alone – everyone knows about the “man seat” in the shops and plenty of folks can’t be trusted to pick their own clothes. Tom Tate wasn’t available to chat to the team today, so auditions were taken for a replacement. The team got a direct quote from the Mayor about issues affecting the Gold Coast and Pete from Pimpama absolutely nailed the delivery. Classic. The man across all the local happenings, Nicka35, calls in to give the latest about Kevin Costner’s whereabouts – Keep your eyes peeled in Tugun!

While “When did Michael Douglas Get So Young” may not have been the sole burning question of our rewatch of Romancing The Stone, it certainly was among the many prompted by Paul, Javi, and the always Trustworthy Producer Brad's journey into the wilds of this 1980's gem. Though Paul may - occasionally, pointedly - disagree, Javi brilliantly lays out the many arguments for why this film remains an underrated hidden classic. Whether they are settling their differences or finding common ground, Paul and Javi - and yes, Kathleen Turner and Michael Douglas, we guess - have one of their most spirited debates as they ponder the veritable mudslide of latino stereotypes on display and many other topics of interest while marveling, as if anew, by the explosive chemistry between Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner… and Danny Devito and Zack Norman and some crocodiles… and Alfonso Arau and “Pepe”… and Holland Taylor and pretty much anything with a pulse. It's a union of Hollywood Titans - Zemeckis, Douglas, Turner, Devito, and Thomas - yes, Thomas - as they rock to some of the most eighties saxophone riffs ever: it's Romancing the Stone!Show Notes:Romancing the Stone US Theatrical Release Date: March 30, 1984Weekend Domestic Box Office March 30, 1984Romancing the Stone Box OfficeAFI Catalog Entry: Romancing the StoneRoger Ebert's ReviewNew York Times' ReviewTheme music by Mike McGuillAdditional voicework by Russell BentleyFollow us!InstagramBlueskyemail: Multiplexoverthruster@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Fixers on Film

On this episode of The Video Store Podcast, I am recommending four movies about the people who get called when somebody has made a mess, crossed the wrong person, or needs a situation to go away quietly. The movies this week are Sweet Smell of Success (1957), Wise Guys (1986), La Femme Nikita (1990), and Pulp Fiction (1994). They all deal with that idea in different ways, from a press agent trying to stay useful, to mob errand boys trying to stay alive, to handlers working inside a government machine, to a man who arrives with a plan when everyone else is panicking.I start with Sweet Smell of Success (1957), which may be the coldest movie on this list. Tony Curtis plays Sidney Falco, a press agent who is always working an angle and always trying to stay useful to Burt Lancaster's J. J. Hunsecker. Hunsecker has the power, but Falco is the fixer. He is the one moving through restaurants, clubs, offices, and sidewalks trying to make things happen for people who would rather not get their own hands dirty. The film was directed by Alexander Mackendrick, with cinematography by James Wong Howe and music by Elmer Bernstein. It was shot partly on the streets of New York, and it still feels like a movie made out of cigarette smoke, bad favors, and late night anxiety.Then I move to Wise Guys (1986), a Brian De Palma comedy that feels a little odd in his filmography, which is part of what makes it interesting. Danny DeVito and Joe Piscopo play low level mob guys who are useful until they are not. They run errands, take orders, and try to read the room, but the room keeps changing on them. Harvey Keitel, Dan Hedaya, Ray Sharkey, Frank Vincent, and Captain Lou Albano are all in the cast, which gives the movie a nice mix of mob movie faces and broad comedy. It is not De Palma in thriller mode, but you can still see his interest in people trapped inside systems they do not fully control.The third recommendation is La Femme Nikita (1990), Luc Besson's French action thriller about a young woman pulled into a government program that turns her into an assassin. The fixer here is not only one person. It is the whole structure around her. Tchéky Karyo's Bob is part handler and part threat, someone who can seem kind while reminding Nikita that her new life is not really hers. Jeanne Moreau also appears as Amande, who helps shape Nikita into someone who can move through polite society while carrying a completely different life underneath. Anne Parillaud won the César Award for Best Actress for the role, and you can see why. She has to play the violence, the fear, and the strange sadness of someone being rebuilt for other people's purposes.The last movie is Pulp Fiction (1994), where Harvey Keitel's Winston Wolf may be the cleanest example of this week's theme. He arrives, assesses the problem, gives instructions, and leaves before the movie can turn him into something bigger. That is part of why the character works so well. He does not need a long backstory. He is there because somebody called the right number. The movie is full of people talking themselves into and out of danger, but Mr. Wolf is different. He does not talk around the problem. He handles it.So this week, the shelf has a bitter New York classic, an oddball mob comedy, a French thriller, and one of the defining crime films of the 1990s. Four very different rentals, all built around people who know what to do when the situation has gone bad.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

How does Danny DeVito balance warmth and menace both in front of and behind the camera, and why does his version of the story feel so deliciously unhinged?

From royal roots in Calcutta to building one of London's most inspiring restaurant stories, Asma Khan is a force of nature. Fresh off a flight from India and fasting during Ramadan, she joined the GoToFoodPod to reflect on a life shaped by fierce family values, extraordinary food, and an unshakable sense of purpose. She spoke movingly about growing up between Rajput warrior heritage and Bengali royal lineage, while being raised not as a princess, but as a fighter — encouraged by her parents to play cricket, ignore cruel expectations, and understand that true leadership means protecting your people.Some of the most unforgettable stories came from her childhood in 1970s Calcutta, where her mother's catering business filled the house with everything from traditional Muslim wedding feasts to turkey dinners for expats and High Commission parties. Khan painted a vivid picture of a city unlike any other: prawn cocktail, chicken à la Kiev, Armenian dolma, Afghan breads, Indo-Chinese dishes from Tangra, and the legendary tutti frutti ice cream that she still dreams about. Her memories captured Calcutta as a culinary crossroads shaped by British, Portuguese, Persian, Chinese, Afghan, Armenian and Jewish influences — a place where food told the story of migration, generosity and cultural exchange.The emotional heart of the conversation came when Khan described arriving in Cambridge at 22 for an arranged marriage, isolated, homesick, and unable to cook. In a cold, unfamiliar world, she found comfort not in status or education — despite later earning a PhD in British constitutional law from King's College London — but in learning to recreate the aromas of home. That journey eventually led to her supper club, then her first restaurant, and a now-iconic all-female kitchen team she refused to abandon when others told her to replace them with “professionals.” Her story of opening a restaurant at 48, backed by women who had stood by her from the beginning, became a rallying cry for anyone who has ever been overlooked.But this episode was not just nostalgia and triumph — it was also a call to action. Khan spoke powerfully about racism, misogyny, gatekeeping and abuse in hospitality, challenging the industry's silence and hypocrisy with extraordinary honesty. At the same time, she shared exciting news about her move to Rupert Street, where she plans not only a bigger restaurant, but a basement kitchen designed to train and employ women who are shut out of the workforce. Alongside stories of serving King Charles and Queen Camilla, feeding refugee families, charming Paul Rudd and nearly getting Danny DeVito as an investor, Khan proved exactly why she remains one of the most compelling voices in food today: fearless, funny, deeply humane, and determined to change the system from the inside.Pre Order Ben's Incredible Book - All You Can Eat - By Clicking Here - https://www.amazon.co.uk/All-You-Can-Eat-British/dp/1805221523Get 2 Months of Blinq For Free - With Code - GOTOBLINQ - https://blinqme.com/Order The Greatest Meat In The Country From HG Walter Here & Have Restaurant Quality Meals From Home - www.hgwalter.com Hosted on Acast.

Shat the Movies: 80's & 90's Best Film Review

This week, Shat The Movies tackles one of the most bafflingly successful high-concept comedies of the '80s: Twins, the movie that asked, "What if Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito were genetically engineered brothers?" and somehow convinced the world to buy a ticket. Gene and Big D revisit Ivan Reitman's unlikely buddy comedy to examine Arnold playing against type as a naive, hyper-intelligent gentle giant, while DeVito leans hard into sleaze, scams, and short-man rage. The guys debate whether the fish-out-of-water humor still works, unpack the film's bizarre science experiment premise, and marvel at how much charm carries a plot that makes absolutely no sense. From the stolen car hustle to the desert bonding trip and that wildly convenient third-act reunion, Twins swings big on heart—even when the genetics are pure fantasy.
